THE SLAVES OF PREF ID q II
DEATH ROBBED OF HIS PREY.

There are qreer people in the world people with
the most absurd, unreasonable and ind. feasible pre-
udiOes, For example, xe.have met pith individuals
who had morbid antipathy to anything that was
exte nsively advertised matter what might be il
actual claims to the confidence OF the public Thess
eecentrcs looked with espe cia dsfavor on adYers-
ed medicines. They could not see, for example, In
DR.. HOLLOWAY'S magnificent sy stem of adveftts
ing covering, as it does all the mediums ofpublio-
ity who the world affords, anything but gsantio
scheme Of mere speculation True, they could net
gsinsay the testimony pouring ia spontaneously
from the highest sources, in favor Of his incompara-
bic Pills and Ointment, but still they shook their
heads and muttsred humbug." OF eour,e, there's
no possibility of arguing with men who won't rea-
son The best way Is to let them alone. Fortunate
" such specimens Of stupidity are few and far be-
tween In this enlightened era The general feeling
is that if thing Il in itself exsellent its virtues
should be proclaimed to the four winds Of heaven
for the general benefit of mankind Hence the proc
lamations m ,de by DR. HOLLOWAY through the
entire press of the world OF the properties and opera
ton OF his remedies meets with the cordial approval
Of thinking men. The value Of the preparations -
specifics for the various internal ana external COM
plants peculiar to different climates, common to
the world large is conceded not only by the mas
see, but by governments, of science and candid
rivers in every walk of life. Can such remedies
| be too widely known Impossible!-tCin Dollar

IldrIioouiS, SCPe' S1'
A gentleman from Wllliamsport this morn
ing, says no troops had passed into Virginia
up to Tuesday afternoon at three o'clock.
Neither had any of the different divisions re-
ceived any orders for a forward movement
The impression seemed to prevail among
the soldiers that when they did move they
would proceed into Western Virginia, cross
ing at Williamsport.
The enemy he says, will undoubtedly dis
pute the crossing here, and when Gen. Nc
Clellan orders forward movement, bat
tie will no doubt take place at that point.
This gentleman dned at house in Ha-
eerstown where Gen. Lee and staff had made
their headquarters.
The lady of the house says she heard Lee
instruct his officers to see that no depreda.
tons were committed by the soldiers while in
Maryland, bat when they entered Pensyl-
vania they might pillage and destroy every
thing in their route. ..
Quartermaster Gen. Hale visited the
different hospitals at Hagerstown to day anc
reports the sick and wounded proprrly carec
for.
They have bandages and all necessary
appendices for their comfort, but jellles ant
| other delicacies are much needed.

DIsGRACEFUL SURRENDER OF MUM
FoRDsvILLE.-A special correspondent of
the Chicago Tribune describes the surren-
der of Mumtordsville, Kentucky, as DIS
graceful affair." Col. Wilder, OF the 18th
Indiana regiment, with $500 men, de-
Tended the place and whipped the enemy,
who had double his force. He sent tor
reinforcements, and Col. Durham, OF the
5Oth Indiana, with other regiments from
the same State, were sent to his assist
ance. 1t happened that Durham out
ranked Wilder, and it was great mlsfor-
tune, for he surrendered the place at
once. He had, it is represented by the
correspondent above named, hardly taken
command before he commenced specula-
ting on the manner of surrenderlng.-
Durham had been recently, it is said,
compelled to defend his reputation against
charges of disloyalty, and the popular
feeling is very much excited against him
on account of the Mumfordsville affair.

The reports in reference to Garibal-
di are conflicting, In some advices it is
stated that his wounds are rapidly heal
ing,-in others, that he is in dangerous
condition. 1t is alleged that he has been
taken by the Government to depart
ment in Varagino, where no proper prep
arations has been made for his health or
comfort. His old companion, Bixio, has
published letter, denouncing the Minis
ter of Stae, Ratazzi, who, he says, may
establish a reputation as an apostle of
conservatism and repression, but certainly
can never hope to be credited with hu-
manity.

tons. Lot us do nothing but work Ssr the
country which God in his providence called
upon us to do.
The above Is merely the substance lcf the
the Secretary's remarks which we're applaud
cd throughout.
Cassius N. Clay was the next speaker. In
the course of his remarks, he expressed his
thankfulness that the time had now come
when the line had been Enthusiastically drawn
between freedom and slavery, and when the
principles declared in IT were boldly oenun-
ciated. The right was always expedient, and
hence he was grati6ed beyond utterance in
the issuancs Of the Presidents proclamation.
The man who did not stand by it was .
traitor.
For the first time there was aproclama-
ton in behalf Of down trodden humanity. 1t
would find its way all over the south, every
where hberating the oppressed Of both races
in this country. He anticipated good effects
from it in Europe, for no man there dare
stand up IN defence ofslavery. But to make
the proclamation effective We must all work
by the means of our armies, now contendinl
against an aristocracy which finds sympath.
in Europe among those who hate republi
can government.
In the conclusion of his remarks, whic
were somewhat prolonged, he united in tn
prayer of Horace Greeley-God bless Abra
ham Lincoln.
Attorney General Bates was also the re
cipient of serenade, and made few n
marks expressive of his thanks for the com
pliment bestowed.

THE TENTH REGIMENT'-By pri-
vate from the 10th Regiment we learn
that it left the neighborhood of Washing
ton on the 14th, and marched up the river
some forty miles, and was posted between
Conrads and Edwards ferries on picket
duty. The men carried all their equip
ments the whole distance, and their KNAPP
sacks about one third of it. They were
on the regular fare of hard tack, &c, but
were in good health and spirits Bur-

The London papers are very severe
on Mr.. Stewards circular inviting foreign
emigration to the United States, and pro-
nounce it shrewd attempt to beguile
poor men to country where Industry is
paralyzed, and where there will be for
them no alternative but to enlist in the
army or starve. The commentary upon
this view of the case is that in the West
this year, farm laborers are SO scarce that
two dollars and half day have been
paid to ordinary field hands.
