Two thoroughly reliable Kentuckians
just arrived from New Orleans report all
along the Mississippi river from Memphis
to New Orleans there is one general
bonfire Of property, particularly cotton, Of
which Ii, 100 bales were burned at New
Orleans. At Memphis sugar and molas-
ses in large quantities on bluffs ready to
be rolled into the river, and all stock cot
ton will be fred on approach Of theF ederal
feet. People in river towns are retreat
ing inward and destroying property along
oil the Southern tributaries Of the Mis-
sissippi. Planters in many cases are ap-
plying torches to their own cotton. The
rebel government has also boats running
up the rivers destroying cotton among
great numbers Of planters only one was
found who objected to burn HE cotton.

Tertiary. We expressed the common SEN
timenI Of disappointment that the rebel
army had not been captured bodily a,
Yorktown instead Of making its escape,
whereupon the editor of the Plaindealer
exercises his faculties as follows
TURE HIM OuT.-We respectfully SUBJ
NIT, and in this opinion We are joined by
hosts of conservative Republicans, that no
man shall hold any civil or military Office
under the. Government, who simpalhize in
the victories, or defeat of the Southern
rebels.
If this rule would obtain at Washing.
ton J. B. Howell could not remain Post
Master at keokuk. The GATE CRY ex-
hlbits its chargin ut the rebel defeat At
Yorktown in the strongest colors. Let
the sympathiaer with treason be hurled
out Of Office, and all the people will say,
Amen.

zen. dailock's orders, Is to make no dis
tinction between him and our own men.
w. d. TUaNER,
Asst Surgeon, in charge of
Hospital Steamer City of Memphis.
We clip the above from letter written
by Assistant Surgeon Turner, for the
benefit OF few who live ia this city, and
who have manifested such extreme dis.
gust at seeing some of the rebel wounded
in the City Hospital here treated With
humanity. We are glad to know that
such brutal sentiments as are ventilated by
the Abolition Gate City meet with but
few sympathizers here Clagett's Con-
stitution.
The sentiments Of the Gate City in re-
gard to the treatment of the secesh
prisoners here are the sentiments of all
the truly loyal men in the City and State.
We oil believe in treating wounded
prisoners inst rs We do our own men, in
regard to medical attention and nursing
and loyal men aud women too have fol-
lowed that rule. But the secesh SYM
pathizer> headed by Floyd, backed by .
score or 30 Of his satellites, and defended
by Clagett and the Mahonyites generally,
have treated the secesh in the hospital
with marked favor and partiality. So
much % as to insult and outrage the feel
ings Of our own wounded patriots by
their side. And they have done SO On
purpose, In bloviating, defiant way. in
contempt of the loyal sentiment Of the
community. These facts are notorious in
the hospital, and became so notorious
that the Director Of the hospital abso-
lutely forbade the admission Of Floyd and
others of his stripe
This class Of men never visited the
hospital till the secesh came, and took no
interest in any but the secesh when they
did visit it. And ia addition to their in
sulting psrtiality for traitors over patriots
IN the hospital, they raised a suit Of
clothes for secesh Surgeon and sough,
to furnish an elegant metallic burial case
Tor deceased traitor. And yet CIapet,
Justhes these saandalous practices Of the
fynpathizers here, and pours out hi.
SHINY billingsgate upon the editor Of the
Gate City for making them public and
giving uttsrance to public sentiment il
regard TO them.
