The MEETING 70 MIGHT'VE desire to
remind our readers of the meeting be
held at the Court House tonight, to con-
slider military affairs and other matters per-
tanning to the best interests of our city,
county and State.
This is an hour Of peril, when no good
and loyal citizen can be Indifferent to the
condition of our country, which is now
struggling for existence. Every one is in
terested, and every one has duty to per-
form. Our State has achieved u uobe fame
in this struggle against traitors, and has
contributed more perhaps, than any other
to deter ami prevent the invasion of the
Northern States. When invasion was
threatened when the rebels in large force
held positions almost in sight of our shores,
the patriotic and chivalrous young men or
ganized and armed themselves 10 project
their homes and their fresides with a
promtness and alacrity that showed they
were in earnest. There never was time
when that organization was more needed
than now.
The great army of rebels in the Missis-
sippi Valley has been broken up and dis
persed, but bold, bad men, taking advau-
tsge of the times, have banded together to
rob, murder, pillage, and destroy. They
infest our sister State, which is putting
forth most herculean efforts to capture
these marauders and outlaws. Kentucky
needs our corporation. She should have
it. The plunderers and desperadoes may
never cross to our shores, may never invade
our State, nszy:never devastate and plumber
our city. If we are true to ourselves, to
our families, and our country, they teiU not.
To be prepared for danger is to avoid it,
Let all our loyal citizens be present then
tonight, and by their counsel aud presence
aid and encourage in the good work that is
laid out to be accomplished. This is No
time to be indifferent. We mus. act ear
nestly, and we must act now.

Lord Brougham explained his speech in

CARDS the latest news as portending the al
most indefinite postponement of peace.
In the House of Lords Brougham de-
p'ored the continuance of the civil slrife

it impossible for EngIand to interfere, but
expressed the opinion that America would
see the suicidal character of the struggle

she lost the respect and affection of Europe
as a nation.
In the House of Commons, Mr.. Hope
wood asked if the Government intended to
take steps as mediator.
Lord Palmerston expressed deep SYM
paihy with the suffering operatives, and
eulogized their endurance. He wished it
was in the power of the Government to
take steps for their relief, but interference
in American affairs would only aggravate
matters. Both England and France would
be delighted to take immediate steps as
medialors, when afiltipg opportunity arose.
He should look upon it as both duty and
pleasure.
