Gen. Lane ailhe Planisrs' House, Leaven-
worth. In response, ho said; wis
"Remarks have beon nnmerously eiTcu-
lated by interested parties that there weio
difficulties between the gallant Hunter and
myself. All such reports arc utterly false.
When the Union is in danger, he is q trait
or who tries to stir up difficulties between
those whose first ambition it is TO serSc
thor country.
"When the facts are known, these mis-
erablo creatures who willfully circulate
falsehoods will DO covered all over with
confusion. Soldiers Of Wisconsin, l shall
go into danger with you and the men Of
Kansas and the West and If Z cannot serve
Freedom as Commander, 4 shall do Hds a

We hear a report from Washington,
which, being illustrative Of the character Of
Secretary Stanton, is worthy of = place in
the pages Of current history. The Secre-
tary dislikes very much the close proximity
Of the rebel army to the National capital.
The thing is a stencil to him, and it is a
disgrace to tho country. In this spirit he
was urging General Mcclellan one day to
overcome this "military necessity" He
suggested that the General might get in be-
hind the rebels and cut of their railroad

this point progressed as followsp

Another remained outside Of the rife
pits after all Of bis compepions had retreat

against half dozen Of the Unionists who
bad surrounded him and were anxious to
tako him prisoner. They asked him sov.

had rather die, and die ho did on tho point
of Union bayonet; but not before he had
slain ono and wounded three Of his adyer-
saries.

He had Inherited large fortune; married
