correspondent of the New York Herald, under

broken out on the Eastern Shore of Virginia,
he Immediately ordered the army gunboat
Westend, commanded by Capt. }. &. Lee, OF
the goth regiment n T. volunteers, to proceed
there to quell the same, peaceably If he could,
forcibly if he must It appears from the facts
as obtained from Gen. Dix, that Col. Wilkins
Maryland regiment, numbering about SIX hun
dred men, had been organized for the express
purrose of doing duty in its own State, and
ever since it's organization has been guarding
the railroads and such other service within the
State as was ordered. Gen. WOOL however;
ordered the regiment to proceed to Eastyllle,
on the Eastern Shore, against the wishes OF
the officers and men, and contrary to the agree
1nent Of the organization Of the corps. Two
Of the companies refused to land, and openly
mutinied against the government; hence the
measures adopted by Gen. Dix. AS the West
end has not yet returned, | cannot state any
result thus far" 1t will be remembered that
some days we published the fact that some
seventy-fve members ofthis regiment had been
sent to Fort McHenly, charged with lnsubor-
dination, in refusing to leave the State.

MONO,s TO WHOM HONOR is
DIE

1t seems to have been the studied pur-
pose OF the Chicago papers to appropriate
all the glory of the recent victory at Fort
Donelson, 10 the Illinois troops. 1t is true
that the greater part of the forces engaged
10 that battle, were from Illinois; yet there
were other troops, and other officers, who
done very credilable fighting. for which
certainly a little credit is due them. Gen.
G.. +. Smith, an educated officer, about
whose confirmation to Brigadier Gener
alship the abolitionsts raised such howl
all over tie country, was the first man in
side the enemy's Notifications, and the Cd
Iowa was the first regiment to follow him.
This fact was barely mentioned in the
Chicago papers, but if it had been an Iii
nois General, and an Illinois regiment,
column upoa column would have been
published concerning it.
We are pleased to notice that the Chi
cago Times correspondent at Fort Donel-
son, is beginning TO realize, though at
rather late date, that there are others
than those from Illinois, entitled to some
consideration. The following is an ex-
tract from the correspondence Of the Times
of last Friday;
"Gen. Lew. Wallace led In person the
impetuous charge of the Eighth Missouri
and Eleventh Indiana, on the afternoon
of Saturday. which was characterized by
such lrightful loss of life, and resulted
in driving the enemy back from the van
tage ground they had gained on our right,
and sending them bowling into their in
closures. Within one hour from the time
he had started he appeared again at quar-
tiers. jubilant with his success. and. on
meeting Gen. Nc CIernand, renarked.--

holes. and | have half dozen American

Dr. SwaNK will be at the Edwards House from

Persons had better call early, rs the Dr's room

He treats all forms of Chronic diseases andespe-

The DR.. is regular graduate of one of
the best medical schools in the United States. and

4 Good Resolution.

The Rhode Island (Democratic) State
Convention, which nominated Governor
Sprague for reelection. passed, among
others. III, 70 lowing excellent resolutions:
"Resoleea, That the effort now being
made to divert this war from its original
purpose, as proclaimed by the President
and Congress OF the United States sevea
months ago-the maintenance Of the
Federal Constitution and the preservation
of the Unions integriiy-and to turn it
into a war for the emancipation OF slaves
and the subjugation of the Southern States,
or their return to Territorial condition,
is an effort against the Union. against the
Constitution. against justice and against
humanity. and should be promptly frown
ed upon by all the friends Of Democratic
institutions. 1t is unworthy of loyal
citizens. and can find support only with
sectional fanatics. who have no love for
the Union or desire for its restoration. and
whose highest patriotism is an unnatural
and unrig.,eous hatred Of the citizens of
sister States. And whereas. we preceive
gratifying indications that President Lin
coin is resisting and will continue to resist
this reasonable effort, it is further resolved
that in such patriotic resistance he Id en-
titled to, and does and shall continue to
receive. our cordial sympathy and unfal-
tering support"
Even Rhode Island will indorse the
resolution, bv the re election Of Governor

say whether the forti6cations were occu-
