UNION TEMPERANCE MEETING.-Quite a
good audience considering the state of the
weather, assembled at the new City Hall last
evening, to listen to the trio Of eloquent speak
ers who we're announced to be present S. l..
Carleton, Esq, presided, and after few re-
marks introduced DR.. J. J. Bradford, of Au-
gusta, KY, M. w. A. of the National Division
s. of I. The speech of DR.. B. was devoted to
an argumentative analysis of the causes, man.
agement and prospects of the present war.
Though neither a "copperhead" or an abol-
ZIONIST he declared himself patriot and an
unconditional union man; and he answered
the objections made against the government
In regard to the conduct Of the war In man
ner that was most refreshing. We regret very
much that our limits forbid an extended report
Of bis eloquent, patriotic and logical address.
At its conclusion John c. Beckett, ESQ.,, of
Montreal, editor Of the Canada Temperance
Advocate, was introduced. He spoke but
few minutes, but declared that the Provincial
Legislature of Canada was ready to give the
people Maine Law as soon as they were
ready TO receive it. Edward Carswell, of Osh-
ava, Canada, the eloquent young orator,
closed the meeting with short and appropri-
ate speech. These, with other gentlemen
leave town this afternoon fcr Halifax via st.
John, to attend the next session of the Nation
al Division S. Of T.

FROM WASHINGTON.
Rebels Exulting over Affairs at Vicksburg.
Reinforcement Of Port Hudson Disbe-
lieved.
Fredericksburg Still Occupied by the
Rebels.
WASHINGTON. June 6.

WASHINGTON, June 6.
kilograms were received tonight from
Richmond papers of to-day. Those who have
read them, say the rebels are exulting in what
they alleged to be great losses on the part of
Grants army. The papers, for several days
past, have been continually increasing the
number, entirely depending upon fancy rather
than facts.
The Richmond Enquirer says information
has been received through courier, that Kir-
by Smith has crossed the Mississippi with re-
Inducements and joined his friends at Port
Hudson, but that while his forces were passing
over, our gunboats sunk one Of their steam
boats, TINS causing loss to the rebels of 700
men. But little reliance is placed in the re-
port, for the reason it is not believed that the
enemy has any steamboats, on the Mississippi;
and IL this were so, our gunboats would not
permit them to land troops.
Whatever may have been the condition of
affairs on either side of the Rappahannock for
the last two days, it is known that our army
is tonight on this side of the river. There is
no truth in the statement Of the evacuation of
Fredericksburg by Gen. Lee and the occupa-
ton of that place by our forces.

RIBBONS MIR. M. G. Palmer has just re-
turned from New York with new assort-
ment Of Ribbons, bought cheap at auction.
The sale at which Mr.. Palmer's stock was
bought amounted to about $4,000. Mr.. Pal
mer, we learn from the Courier, was the larg-
est buyer present The New York Press thus
notices the sale:
Messrs. Kobbe & Corliss had special offer
Ing of bonnet ribbons of the importation OF
Strange & Brother. There were large
number of buyers present, and fair spirit
was manifested. The ribbon trade, however,
Is falling of, as the season Is far advanced !;
and although tine sale was about up to import
ers' anticipations, yet there was less amount
OF goods taken and prices were not up to last
Wednesdays sale. The sample lots were all
sold and $50 duplicates besides.

ridicues the Federal commander and his style.
A great meeting was held at Sheffield in

FORTRESS MONROE, June

FORTRESS MONROE, June 9.
The following are extracts from the Rich
mond Despatch of this morning:
Jackson, Mss 3d-All is quiet at Vicks-
burg. No firing was heard yesterday. Gen.
Grant is evidently making preparations for
movement in some direction.
Jackson, 4th.-A courier reports that Kirby
Smith has crossed to Port Hudson The gun
boats made furious assault, sinking one
steamer and drowning 700 men. No doubts
are felt in regard to the result. =
Interesting details of the fight at Vicksburg
ON Tuesday are coming in. Gen. Grant used
cotton bales for movable breastworks in the
attack Gen. Pemberton mounted his 200
Founders and directed their fire at the cotton
bales, moving down whole platoons of the
enemy. Our entire loss, including the action
OF Bakers Creek, does not exceed 5000. Con-
fidence in Pembcrton, since his answer to
Grants demand for surrender, has been fully
restored. No fears are felt regarding the re-
suit at Vicksburg or Port Hudson.
Jackson, 4th, p. M.-Heavy firing in the
direction of Vicksburg has been heard all day.
Nothing reliable has been received from there
since Sunday.
Charleston, 4th.-An official dispatch from
Gen. w. S. Walker, at Pocalaligo, reports that
the enemy fired the town of BlufIton to-day.
Our forces engaged them and prevented any
A later dispatch from Lieut.. Col Johnston
to Gen Walker says we are now in possession
of Button which is in flames. The enemy
have retired. No one on our side was hurt
In the raid on the Combahee the enemy
carried away about 1000 negroes and destroy
ed nearly 100000 worth of property
Mobile. 4th.-Refugees at Pascagoula report
another brilliant victory over the Yankees at
Port Hudson.
An editorial in the Vicksburg Wing says
the news from the Southwest continues of the
most cheering character. Nobly has Pember-
ton indicated the confidence placed in him by
President Davis. From all accounts the de-
fence of Vicksburg is the most glorious episode
in the already crowded annals Of military his
tory. The heroic garrison has immortalized
ITSELF
The telegram also brings the report of
brilliant victory gained by Gen. Kirby Smith
over Gen. Banks at Port Hudson. We have
every reason to believe this news will be con-
firined.
With Gen. Grants army all but annihilated
by the terrific execution of our artillery and
musketry at Vicksburg, and the strategic
movements OF Gen. Banks suddenly cut short
at Port Hudson, the great campaign Of the
West, from which so much was expected by
the enemy, bids fair TO prove by far the most
disastrous and gigantic of all their failures in
this war.

KATE REIeNoLDs ANOTHER WEEK.-Dur-
ing the past week We have had ample PROOF
that good company, really good pieces and
attention to the details of the stage are appre-
ciated in Portland. We have also had sufici-
ent evidence that, when lady holding the high
professional position of Miss Kate Reynolds
comes so far east to pay us visit, we have an
audience amongst us discriminative enough to
do her Justice, and large enough to do her
honor. Not that she has received all the at
tention she deserves. We feel assured that
there are many in our city who have nota true
and full conviction OF how great is her genius
aud how transcendent her talent. Iii rarely,
very rarely indeedytbat we are favored with
tbs presence of an artist whose merits are so
many and so deserving of recognition. Her
self the "bright pre-eminent star" of the pro-
fession she adorns, she has had the good sense
TO bring with her a small but select company,
every member of which is fit satellite to re-
volve around her own brilliant planet Wheth-
er we refer 10 the finished acting of Mr.. Mar
lowe, the gentlemanly representations of Mr..
Becks or the unctuous comic developments of
Mr.. Robson, the praise is alike deserved
Every piece has been placed on the stage with
fastideous care, and every little comedy has
been played with finish to which we have
hitherto been unaccustomed. Elegance and
taste have marked every scene and character
lied the production of each play. The-charm-
ing Kate seems to interfuse portion Of her
own innate elegance, her own exquisite taste
and her own superior nature into all her sur
roundings. The light of her own beauty en-
lightens and beauties all proximate objects.
Fortunately Mr.. Myers has been able to effect
Encouragement with her and her highly tai
ented company, thus securing to Portland a
boon which ought to be duly priced, and az
fording an opportunity for seeing such acting
as we have not seen before for many long
day.
Tonight the pieces to be played are "The
Little Treasure a charming two-act comedy,
which we are told ran for more than two hum
dred nights in London, and the capital extrav
aganza OF the "Union Volunteer" Mr.. Kerr
rison the accomplished pianist of the company
Is also to favor us with some piano-forte play
ing. He Is pianist SO eminent as to deserve
-tcfng listened to with attention. These at
fractions, and the fact of the comedy tonight
being no mere vaudeville, but first class play,
requiring the assistance Of some of Mr.. Myers
company to complete its representation, will
assuredly attract full house. Indeed, we
predict for Miss Reynolds this week an amount
OF success far SURPRISING that of the last six
nights.

Garrison of Vicksburg on Quarter Rations-
Smelling of the Town.

CINCINNATI June Z.
Adams Express Co. have advices from their
Superintendent at Memphis to the 3D..
The dispatch from Pemberton to Johnston,
captured on Thursday, read: sour forage is
all gone. The men are on quarter rations.
The ammunition is nearly exhausted. We can
hold out ten days."
On Friday Gen. Grant ordered every gun
into position to throw shells into Vicksburg
In one hour 5000 shells were safely lodged in
the city, but with what effect is not known.
WASHINGTON, June 5.
The government has received official advices
from Vicksburg to the Sd. The telegram
while stating that the siege continues, makes
no mention Of events of startling Importance.
