PORTLAND, Me, Monday Aug. TO- 1853.
An immense audience crowded the City Hall to-
night TO greet Gen. Shepley, Military Governor Of
louisiana. lie made II speech two hours in length,
which was received with enthusiastic applause. He
defended the measures of the Government in quel.
ling tho Rebellion and yndicaied tbs course of Gen.
Butler. lie hoped the last drop Of Union blood and
the last dollar Of Union money, would be expended
before the Government would treat with the Rebels
on basis Of separation.
The process OF restoration did not seem difficult TO
him. Ignore the Rebel Government put Union
men in power, and let them bring back the States
into tie Union. The Rebel had no part in the

sounded the death knell Of the institution which
caus ed the Rebellion. lie was willing to trust the
Union men of the South TO settle the Slavery ques-

by the State of Louisiana to return to the Union.
No public meetings had been held 10 authorize u

The Government had done everything Ia their power
10 welcome Louisiana back into the arms OF the
Union. ~

Orleans authorities to govern the city, until al
homes were lost OF inducing them TO return To their
allegiance. IL Louisiana had chosen she might have
returned into the Union and never have known the
evils of war. lie wished 10 vlndioate the Govern
ment from the sion that anything but tho
cordial hand OF welcome had been held out to the
return OF any State to the Union.
Louisiana would return TO the Union; and IN the
same mode we could win back all the Rebel States.
First pnt down the Rebel arms, then depose their

daysi Formerly when tho slave was wounded, by
wounds with brine.
The negro soldiers have $40 month. and they
can buy such things IA the suter has TO SELL and fol-
the first time in their lives do they taste butter and
cheese. This Is saying surprising thing OF elass
of laborers on whom distant and proud cities de.
pended for their commercial prosperity, aud the
whole Of the civilized world for fully onehalf Of is
clothing.
What wonderful changes do we behold
Onr lispiDe daughter was born while the masters
OF these soldiers enjoyed every comfort; and III par
tiular ice, but now they are az destitute as ever
were.tber slaves.
Let one imagine TO himself, planter standing on
the opposite bank of the Mississippi and behoiding
the camp of the llth Louisiana. No hostile Toe
dare approach, for there are iron-clads near, anu
without them they can give sturdy battle. The
PLANTER may not only sigh that they are his slaves
no longer, but also sigh for what they enjoy. AZ
distance he may sec--ho cannot draw nearer. Ma
mrally will the mind think Of Lazarus and Dives,
and recall the following passage:
" And in hell he lifted up his eyes, being IN tor
ments and rceth Abraham aiar off, and Lazarus 10

ham, have mercy on me. and send Lazarus that he
may dip the Zip Of his finger IN water, and cool NY
tongue, for / am tormented in this flame. 30.
Abraham said, Son. remember that thou IN thy llfe-
time receivedest thy good things, and Likewise la
Earus evil thngs: but now hs Is comiorted. and
thou art tormented. And, beside oil this, between
US and you there is a great gulf fixed" &c The
