We have already. published several in
ctdeuts of rebel female ,heroism, or rather
blackgpardism, aimed at the National
troops as they entered Nashville, but the
following, related by Capt. Bridges, of the
10th Illinois, is too good to belost:
While Gen. Mitchell's division was pass

dressed lady appeared on the balcony ana
cSondescended to utter many epithets not

Here is Abe Lincoln's circus!n A

performance was at Fort Donelson." This
was followed by cheers, from all within
hearing. 1t is needless to say that The

A Meeting that Is to Come on IN Ma
son County To-day.
(RrOnl tho Point Pleasant Register.

Monday next, the 7th inst, is the day
appointed for the meeting of the loyal cit
izens of the county, to decide upon IA
course of policy to be pursued in regard to
the treatment of returned rebels. 8 We be-
lieve it is unnecessary for us to further
urge the Importance of this mater upon
the people. All feel that something must
be done, for all have reason to know that
the eleventh nOur repentance of traitors
amounts to nothing. We assert that not
one of the scoundrels who have been of
in the rebel army, or been dogging around
after it, but has returned worse, if possi-
BILE, than when he left. They come back
without any fear OF the halter-the reward
of treason in oil other civilized counIries+--
and find plenty of sympathizers and those
who arc ready to Justify them. Conse-
quently we hear treason talked on the
streets, and by the ireside-in season and
out of season-by those who make it the
burden of their song, and still go UNI
whipped of Justice" We ask, if this ac-
cursed rebellion will ever be crushed out,
SO long as such a state of affairs is tolet-
ated. Are we, or are we not, without the
courage to use the means WHICH common
sense teaches US are necessary for our
preseryationP From the information NE
have from the different parts of the conn
ty, We are lead to believe that thereIFiIl
be a large attendance at the proposed
meeting. We are glad to know that such
will probably be the case, for a display, OF
the Union element of the county, can but
have IL beneficial effect Let alf who love
their country, and are determined 10 sus4
tain the Government, try and be present.

General Jackson ASSain.

Gen. j. ]. Jackson has been making
speeches, as we observe, against the new
Constitution and as We gather from news
paper notices of his career recently, his
record on the Union question has latterly
been by no means above suspicion. The
Point Pleasant Register, the editor 8f which
appears to know him intimately, is down
in a criticism upon his pamphlet ii savage
style speaks of it ns the production either,
of a driyelipg old man vergtlg on his
dotage, or of a disappointed places seeker,
vergiug upon secessionism In consequence
of disappointed ambition z Weahad bet
ter opionion of Jackson and cannot but
think that he is being unidstly dealt with.
1t is lRment1bly true, however, that very
little reliance is to be putuppn the patriot
ism and political integrity, of men Who
have been long associated with Virginia
politics. States rights dogmattsm ru6s so
imperceptbly and at the same time SO
surely into treason, that iti as difficult to
define the line rs it is easy to fOresee the
catastrophe, A stickler for States rights,
as understood in Virginia, is sure, SCORER
or later, to turn ont q secessionist.a

Those who laid these plans sent out their
emissaries into all the adjoining counties
to notify all rebeldOm in Central Kentucky
to come to Lexington, and participate and
make a full showing of their strength
They thought the Union men would think
1t was to be only funeral, made rather
large on account of the popularity of the
young man, and that under this impression
they could assemble one or two thousand
traitors together, and have good time
generally without being detected, The
coffin was kept for several days with the
body of the dead rebel in it. At length
the great day arrived, and about one
thousand traitors filled the streets of Lex
iHgton to join in the grand procession. A
confederate flag was prepared, aud the
procession was getting ready to move to
the Cemetery, and deposit the body of the
traitor under the colors of the rebel gov.
ernment. Yes, all this was to be done,
and that, too, in the centre of one of the
most loyal States in the Union.
About the time that the clan was gath
ering to execute their treasonable de-
signs, and give n public insult to the
State and Nation by hoisting foreign
tag and marching under it in open day,
the tap of n drum and the whistle of a fife
were heard ut the outskirts of the city.
The hearts of the rebels quaked with
tenr-they looked pale-thcy trembled-
they looked into each Others faces in con-
fusion and despair-their trick has been
discovered, and an Indiana regiment of
Union troops had been sent for to come
to Lexington and prevent the Offering of
so gross an insult to our whole loyal pop
ulation. This regiment was quartered
within few miles of the city, and it was
well that it was. The soldiers entered
Lexington in the most respectable man
nor; the officer in command ascertained
the names of all the relatives and imme-
diate friends of the deceased, allowed
twenty carriages to be filled with these
relatives and friends and follow the hearse
to the cemetery, and pay the last sad
rights to tho dead. The great crowd Of
eight or nine hundred rebels that Ind
assembled there for the purpose Of rails
ing and marching under the Confederate
flag, were commanded to retire to their
respective homes, which they did, as q
motter of course. Tho stars and stripes
were raised by the soldiers. and the dead
rebel was con1ucted to his grave under
the flag that he had disgraced, instead of
the new flag in the defense Of which he
had lost his life. rsm
