designed 10 effect greater displacement Of
water than is ordinary secured, and upon
it four hundred tons of armor have been
placed, with entirely successful resulls.~--
The Galena is two hundred feet in length,
thirty-six feet breadth of beam, and of one
thousand tons burihen. Her speed is twelve
miles an hour, and she is found to be sea-
worthy, and perfectly adopted to the pur-
poses Of crushing. At a little distance the
Galena's appearance is smoth and regular,
her curve lines and rounded form diminish
ing her apparent size. Her iron mail is Of
a new design. By means Of Aanges aud
tongues the head of the bolts are entirely
covered, and thus a source of weakness in
the iron plating generally in use is obviated.
The gunners are protected, and the Galena
is believed to be impregnable to ordinary
projectiles. Like the building Of the Mon

what Emerson Etheridre saw.


WAsHIseroN, April 15.-Hon. Emerson
Etheridge, who went out to Tennessee sonao
weeks ago, in compliance with the wishes
of the Government, returned to Washing
ton this morning. He reports affairs in the
West as in most prosperous condition.
He happened TO be at Cairo, when the ''No.
10" prisoners were brought up the Missis-
Isippi, and he represents their condition as
most pitisble. The rank and file seemed
to be made up Of boys and what are known
in the South as "poor whites" and among
the officers were many OF bis acquaintance.
One of them was an old colleague 10 tho
House of Representatives, who, though
ranking as Lieutenant Colonel, had been
captured while running away through =
swamp. The men were generally very
poor, and were selling their Confederate
money-bank-n notes Of twenty-five cents as
mementoes--for the pittsnce that would
buy drink of whisky. Toward the null
titude, Mr.. Etheridge seems only TO enter
tertain feeling of compassion; but for the
leaders in .his rebellion, hardly any pun
ishment would be deemed too severe. He
saw some poor fellows who wept when
he shook them by the haud-who said they
were, and whom be knew TO be, true Union
men, and they had nothing but curses for
the rebellion. He talked with one rebel
officer who said there was not a single
slave-owner in his whole regiment.

The Provost Marshal Of this post has
lately done big thing in the way Of rid

females who daily and nightly throng our

crowd of abandoned females with their no
less abandoned male associates. Despair

A scathing Rebuke.

Mr.. Wadsworth, member of the House
of Representatives from Kentucky, and
professed Unionist-an old Clay Wing, but
saucy, insoent, dictatorial, and somewhat
witty and able,--opposes tho Presidents
scheme of compensated emancipation with
great vehemence. In late speech he used
these words:
81 spit upon the proposition of the Pres
ident-I will not accept i'll reject it for
Kentucky" And he threatened, moreover
that its adoption should kindle the fires Of
another revolution in bis State, in which all
present sympathizers with the Government
would participate. This doughty champion
Of Slavery took exception, the other day, to
the remark of Mr.. Bingham, of Ohio, who
had characterized the peculiar institution as
an "infernal atrocity," and encountered, as
his reward, the following whitening rebuke
from the Ohio statesman:
~ repeat the word which so moved the
gentleman from his propricty, that chattel

Rev. Thomas Worcester D. D. has pub
lshed discourse on Slavery, delivered on
the day of national fasting and prayer, Sept.
26, 1861. This was hailed as good omen
Of progress from the head of the conserva-
tive part OF the church. He shows that no
argument for slavery can be gathered from
the Scriptures but what equally applies TO
poylgamy and divorce, which.tho Lord says
was permitted "because Of the hardness Of
their hearts" He makes strong argu'
meut on the point of letting the Southern
States 90 of from tho Union, saying:-
We have no right to let them go. We hGV'
no right TO let them loose TO prey upon
mankind. They are a part Of our people
They are amdsr our common government
The government is responsible for theii
qood behavior. The Whols country is re
sponsible. When, therefore, zoe see tho
theg t0ish to separate from us for an evi
and plisehievous purpose, sOs have no righ
to let them go; and zoe should BY no mean
clear ourselves from responsibility" Thi
view Of the case had not struck us befor
with the peculiar force il now comes to us
After having nursed the viper till it has &C
quired tremendous power to let it loos

trio mulatlo boy named Dave, who accom-
panied Captain Brent, Of the Louisville Le-
gion, ON his southern expedition. On Sun.
day, during the battle Of Shiloh, Dave stood
by the side Of Captain Brent during the
nine hours engagement, and aided him in
cheering and encouraging the men. He
has earned and received the cognomen ol
the "Black Hero" and is a great favorite
with the LegiOu.-LoGisvills Journal.

that he speaks mildly and with apparently

TIE LITTLE FELL0W.

Some have thought that in the dawning,
In our beings freshest glow,
God is nearer little children
Than their parents ever know;
And that, II you listen sharply,
Better things than You can teach.
And n sort OF mystic wisdom,
Trickles through their careless speech.
How it is l cannot answer ..
But know a little child,
Who, among the thyme and clover,
And the bees, was running wild;
And he came one summer evening,
With his ringlets DER his eyes,
And his hat was torn to pieces,
Chasing bees and butterflies.
"Now I'll 90 10 bed dear mother,
For I'm very tired Of play I"
Aud he said his "Now lay me-"
In kind of careless way,
And he drank the cooling water
From his little silver cup,
And said gaily, "When its morning
Will the angels take me up2"
Down he sank, with rogucish laughter
In his little trundle bed;
And the kindly god of slumber,
Showered the poppies DER his head.
"What could mean his speaking strangely2"
Asked the musing mother then
"Oh twas nothing but his prattle;
What could he Of angels kent"
There he lies how sweet and placid,
And his breathing comes and goes
(Like azephyr moving softly,")
And his cheek is like a rose.
But she leaned her ear to listen
If his breathings could be heard
