REBEL LYNG.-We published the other day
a remarkable article from the Richmond Wing,
in which it complains of the outrageous habit
Of lying into which Southern journals and poll
ticians have fallen, adding that it is disgusting
all sensible and honorable men, and seriously
injuring the rebel cause. AS specimen OF the
audacious lengths to which the practice is car
ried, we republish the following from the New
Orleans Delta of May L.

In reply to this, we have received from the

we find a statement to the effect that Nashville
had been recaptured by Generals Kirby Smith
and Humphrey Marshall, and that five thousand
of the federal troops there had stacked arms and
refused to fight any longer under the Washing
ton despotism." 1t is added in the same para
graph that Governor Magofin, Of Kentucky,
had made his escape and had arrived in Co.
rinth, where he was holding an audience with
Beauregard. This is rich. We do not at all

The Band of ,he stnte ID IndIann-

The regular quarterly meeting of the
Board of Directors for the Bank of the State
took place Tuesday, at Indianapolis The
exhibit Of the condition of the several
branches was of the most gratifying char
acter. The Board, without a dissenting
voice, determined to maintain specie paw
ments al all hazards, and the Bank has the
ability, as well as the disposition to do so.
The people of Indiana have not only State
pride but an interest in having a currency
convertible into coin at the will of the hold
er. Oar banking institutions should be not
only encouraged but sustained by every
citizen OF Che State in maintaining specie
standard The West has been flooded re-
Gently with the now deprecated New Eng
land aud eastern currency, and the real
value of which the generality of the COM
munity can form no just estimate. This
trash should be driven from circulation
and its place occupied by our own currency,
the character and value of which we can be
advised from day to day.
While paper currency is tolerated it is
good policy to encourage and sustain the
circulation Of the notes of our own banks,
to the exclusion of all others as far as pos
sioie, especially while they furnish us a
currency equivalent to coin. The banks in
Kentucky have been and are vet kent sound
oy the people making their issues the ex-
elusive currency. An. as we have already
said, while We tolerate the evil of paper
currency let us give the choice, dictated
alike by pride and interest," to our own
banks upon the condition they redeem their
notes in real money upon demand.

The TRooPs WHO LEFT ST. LOUIS FOR
CAIRO CAUGHT IN THE IcE.-On Monday last
the steamers D. A. January and Continen-
tai, the former having on board the 55th
Illinois Infantry and the latter the 7th
Iowa, left St. Louis for Cairo. The
ice was running considerably and fears
were entertained that the boats would
be caught in it. At II o'clock Mon
day night the Continental was caught in a
gorge one hundred yards from shore, in nine
feet water. The January laid up and the
troops from both boats disembarked and at
last accounts were preparing to march back
to st. Louis TO take the cars to Cairo. The
remaining regiments destined for Cairo will
also leave st. Louis in the cars. Fears are
entertained that the Continental will be
lost in the ice.

General Order No. g.
During the absence of the expedition now

enemy, the following orders will be OBJ

Whilst in camp, no permits win be grant

mental grounds and all violations of this
order must be promptly and snmmarily pun
ished- Disrepute having been brought upon
our brave soldiers by the bad conduct of
some of their members, showing on all oc-
.casions, when marching through territory
occupied by sympathizers of the enemy, a
total disregard of rights of citizens, and be-
ing guilty of wanton destruction of private
property. the General Commanding desires
and intends 20 enforce a change in this re-
spect. Interpreting confiscating acts by
troops themselves has damoraiizng effect.
| weakens them in exact proportion to tie
| decentralization, and makes open and armed
enemies of many who, from opposite treat
ment, would become frieDds, or at worst
nou-combatants; it is ordered, therefore,
that the heaviest punishment be inflicted
upon every soldier who IS guilty of taking
or destroying private property; and any
commissioned officer guilty of like conduct
/ or of countenancing it, shall be deprived of
his sword and expelled from the camp. not
to be permitted TO return.
On the march cavalry advance guards
will be well thrown eut; also flank guards

ABOUT the affair. They are just now en-

out OF Kentucky, and to open I'D the Mis-
