TRUE PATR1oT.-We learn there is a man
in Marshall county, Tennessee, who, week be.
fore last, refused to sell his leather to specula-
tors at one dollar per pound, and is selling to
his neighbors for their own use at ffty cents a
pound. We saw yesterday an excellent pair
of boots he sold within the last two DAYS 70 a
surgeon in the army at six dollars. such as are
retailing in the more Southern States at TWEEN

CHE. TILGHMAN's MorHER,-A few
days since, says the Traveler, Mrs. Thigh
man, accompanied by her dauguhter, Mrs.
Lowery, came to this city for the purpose
of visiting Gen. Tilghman, the rebel pris-
oner at Fort Warren. On Saturday the
mother and daughter were allowed TO Wis
it the fort and have an interview with the
prisoner.
The first exclamation on meeting hin
was "Oh, my rebel son!" and during the
conversation said, "When heard you were
taken l thanked God that you had been
rescued from secession influences, and were
l TO hear there was any chance your be-
ing exchanged, 1 would go on my knees
10 the President to prevent you from
again joining the rebels, for l bad rather
you would remain here during your life
than to know you were among the trait
ors of the country"
Mrs. Tilghman received her permit to
visit the Foit directly from SECRETARY STAN
ton, whom she addressed, stating that
though her son was rebel, he was still
her SON, and she felt it her duty to visit
him, ifpermited. She left for Phil adel

Amusements in Utah.

The Latter Day Saints under Brigham
Young are jolly as well as praying
people. Dancing is their principal amuse-
ment, and Salt Lake City letter of Feb.
9th states that the frolcsome season is a.
bout coming 10 close. The writer adds:
A week or two ago, Brigham advised
his people 10 prepare TO wind up the trip

work was loooming up in the distance
The dances are exceedingly common all
through the Territory. Brigham himself

wrestling. He is said 10 have been pro-
ficient in the art loo.
Brigham endeavors, though not always
with success. to have the dancing done at

The price of admission is generally from
one to two dollars per couple, though all
have the chance 10 take "extra ladies'" if
they choose, at slight advance per head.
On high state occasion the price runs from
five TO twenty-five dollars. Cash pay is
always preferred-but store-pay, wheat,
corn, wood, -four molasses aud almost any
saleable article of produce or manufacture,
are taken with moro or less readiness, ac-
eordipg to their desirability. Widows,
matrons and maidens, old men, youBg

General Mcclellan

In Gen. Burnside's report of the taking
of Newbern he makes such special refer
ence to Gen. Mcclellan as to leave no
doubt that the plan of the expedition 10
Newbern was minutely dictated BY the
Commander in Chief.
Gen. Burnside says:
l beg TO say to the General Command
ing the Army that have eudeayered to
carry out the very minute instructions CIV
en- me by him before leaving Annapolis,
and thus far events have been singularly
coincident with his anticipation. only
hope that we me may in the future be
able TO carry out in detail the remaining
plans of the campaign. The only thing I
have TO regret is the delay caused by the
elements.

A farmer called at the house of a lawye
10 consult him professionally.
Is the Squire at home! he inquired O
the lawyers wife.
No, was the reply.
Mebby yourself can give me information
as well as ye'er his wife.
The kind lady promised to do SO if she
found it in her power, and the other pro-
ceeded as follows:
"Suppose We were Grimes old gray mare Ire
and L should borrow you TO 60 to mill

closed the door, that as he had himself
settled the case, advice would be superau-

Slave Catching Army Offcers.

The law just passed by Congress forbid
ding our army officers 10 make slave catch
ers of themselves, was not passed one me-
ment too soon. We give below a letter
from Gen. Buell. in which he says, that in
every case in which slave has beenfound
within bis camp, he has been delivered up
to his master. As most of the fugitive
slaves no doubt belonged to reOel masters,
it follows that Gen. Buell. has actually fur
nished our enemy with men to build their
Notifications. The letter says:
HEAQUADRTERs Dept OF THE ONO,
NASHVILLE, March 6, 1862.
DEAR SIR:-I have had the honor TO
receive your communication of the lst, on
the subject of fugitive slaves in the camps
of the army.
1t has come to my knowledge that slaves
sometimes make their way improperly in
TO our lines, and in some instances they
may be enticed there, but l think the num-
Der has been magnifed by report. Sever
al applications have been made 20 me by
persons whose servants have been found in
our camps, and in every instance that 1
know of the master has recovered his ser
want and taken him away.
I need hardly remind you that there
will always be found some lawless and
mischievous persons in every army; but
l assure you that the mass of this army
is law abiding, and that it is neither its
disposition nor its policy TO violate law or
the rights of individuals in any particular.
With great respect. your cbedient ser
want. D. C. BUELL.,

THE HUNTER-LANE ExPEDITIoN-The
Chicago Tribune has special despatch
from Leayenworth which states that after
several interviews between Generals Lane
and Hunter, it is evident that amicable ar
rangements are impossible. Gen. Lane
will return to the Senate Immediately.
We will not conceal cur disappointment
at this announcement nor our provocation
at the dogged obstinacy of Hunter Old
and worthless, like "the dog in the man
ger" he can neither do anything himself,
nor let the best Generals in the United
States have permission TO act. The tender
regard for rebels in some quarters is too
apparent. Gen. Lane fought them and
treated them as they deserve. What
claims have our murderers on our sympa-
thies! The beef poisoners-the bridge
burners-the devastators of the country
the wretches who glory. in the destruction
of property-who lay waste whole cities
by fire and whose hands are crimsoned
with the blood of our brothers! What
claims have they on either the mercy Of
God or the humanity of mana They have
forfeited both and should be extermina-
| ted.

WHEREAS, The feelings of the loyal
people of Ohio have been outraged by the
appearance In their capital of rebel Off
GERS in rebel unifotms, released on parole,
and by the fact that rebel prisoners in
Camp Chase prison have been permitted
to retain and use their former slaves as scr
wants, thus practically nulifying our State
Constitution and legalizing slavery in
Ohio; therefore,
Resolved by the General assembly Of
the State of Ohio, That in the name Of
the people of Ohio, who have freely given
their treasure and their blood to sustain
the Government and tho Union, We do
most solemnly protest against this mista-
ken clemency to the guilty, and this out
rage upon the feelings of the loyal people
of Ohio.
Resolved, That copy hereof be for
warded by the Governor 10 the President
of the United States, the Secretary of War,
and our Senators and Representatives, in
Congress.
The report and resolutions were laid on
the table and ordered to be printed.

While prominent officers are thus en-
joying the freedom of the city and the lux
uries Of hotel life, hundreds of poor and
ignorant privates, some of them impressed
and all of them deceived into the rebel
service; penitent for the. wrongs they have
done; ready, willing and anxious to take
the oath of allegiance, are kept confined in
the prisons at Camp Chase. This is n
matter of complaint among the prisoners
themselves.
But who is to blame! Your committee
is satisfied that Col. Moody has done his
whole duty in the premises. They are
equally satisfied that the Governor has en-
deavcred to discharge his duties, honora-
bly,, faithfully and impartially. His posi-
tion has been one of great delcacy. His
control over the camp and prisoners being
by courtesy of the Federal authorities, and
not by any right as Governor Of Ohio, he
has probably done all be well could in the
premises. The responsibility then rests
with the Federal authorities, and our only
remedy is by protest to the President
Your committee therefore recommend the
adoption of The preamble and resolutions
herewith reported.
