quaclee- band of Indians, Although
1bey tailed to secure their settlement

such settlements maT be inaugurated for q

egates at large to the National Union League,

the seeded States have aanihilated them
selves a. States, whIle the power Of the Gen.

THE NEWS.

Tile NEWS
The Wiz in Virginia gives no new as
pects. The whereabouts Of the rebels is
in doubt, but it is certain that they arc still
on tic Rarpahanuock.
From Chattanooga and Stevenson. Ala,
wc have direct adyices to the effect that
bold dash Of a party o; our troops has
TUNED the rebel flank aud driven them
from Lookout Mountain.
The rumor gains ground that Admiral
Dahlg1en is to be removed and Farragut
substituted tor him in the command OF the
naval fierce at Charleston.
Stout and earnest Ben Butler, at Mass
achusetts Union League meeting, yester-
day, made TN important address, telling
some plain strong truths in most forci-
ble manner. The people Will be instruct
ed by such IN expose Of the perils Of the
situation, and to.ewarned is torearmcd.
The dangers Of any TEN mporning policy
a'e thickening. To be thorough isour only
safc course. Half measures are like
bridges that reach only half way across
cham. To be only half cured is to be
wholly destroyed. The cancer must be
exti1patcd TO the remotest root The men
who are Of Ben Buffers way Of thinking
are on the increase.
From Maryland come noble and cheering
Union tokens. Baltimore was alive with
glorious enthusiasm for Union and Liberty
last evening. Henry Winter Davis, and
other cxponents Of the Emancipation ele~
mcnt in Maryland, came out strongly in
support Of that measure as the only one
calculated to restore tranquility to Mary
land. The spectacle is full Of thrilling
suggestions, and shames the squeamish
patriots who advocate half measures and q
!lalf cure Of our national ills.
