equal to every demand on patriotism, honor and
glory No temporary rererses dampened the arder of
your ancestors, even though the enemy marched
in columns through the State. The fires of liberty
still burned brightly in their breasts. They
were moved in energy, and resisted by gall
liant deeds, with abiding hope and nnfnchng courage
and perseverance,, bravely conteudng with enemies at
home well the foreign foe, until, after struggle of
seven long years, our independence achieved and
acknowledged Let US initiate their glorious example
The enemy is rebuilding his efforts and stranng ever

domnatiOn-hiS avarice and ambition. Already it is
proposed i'll their Congress to establish territorial

Mrs. LINCoLN's Brother KI1LEp.-Nr
Samuel b Todd, brother of Mrs Lincoln, died
on the battle field of Shiloh of wounds received
in the action of the 18th of ApriI. The Now
Orleans Delta says he was a gallant private in the
Crescent regiment, and died in defence of his
country against the hircling invaders whom the
husband Of his sister, Abraham Lincoln, sent to
desolate our country and dishonor our people. 1t
must be apleasant reflection to Mrs Lincoln, amid
her vulgar attempts to ape royal fashions, with her
balls and soirees at the Federal capital, that
gallant brother should have thus fallen by
the hands Of her husbands mercenarics
