Badly Bat,

The Royal Leaguers of New York
got up great convention of the State
Leagues, "Gum, Thus and Myrrh, - at
Utica, and hired a thousand soldiers
from New York City to fill up the pro-
gramme of a ''large convention. =
They took the soldiers up at a great
expense, and when these thousand
men, late of the army, got to Utica,
they spent their time in "hu rrahing
for Mcclellan This threw a dam-
per on the Royal Convocatlon, and
was, to their ears, little less disloyal
than hurrahing for Jeff Davis.

The Man to be at the Head Of the
Army.

Orpheus v. herr Is evidently the
man to be placed at the head of the
army. The papershave recently been
filled with accounts of his exploits in
crossing Duck Lake, and now that he
has retreated to his old position with
his "Mackeral Brigade" he proves
himself an adeps in proclamation lit
erature, which is so generally used by
our Generals. We hope that no one
will harbor q suspicion that he is sati,
rizing any one in the subjoined "con-
graduating orders"
HEADoUAR's MACKERAL BRIGADE.
The General commanding tenders
to the aged Mackerals his congratu>
lations and their achievements Of the
last seven days, which were week.
If they have not accomplished all
that was expected. the only reason is,
that more was expected than has been
accomplished.
1t is sufficient to say that they were
ola character not to be forgotten with
out foresight, nor prevented without
human sagacity, and attainable re3our-
ces besides.
In Withdrawing from the other side
of Duck Lake without delivering q
general battle to our adversaries, the
Mackcrals have now proved their re-
newed dihidence in themselves, and al
so their fidelity to very high stand
of retiring modesty.
In fighting at disadvantage, in
stead of at the enemy, we would have
been recreant to our trust in our pom
toons.
Profoundly loyal, and conscious of
its strength, the Mackeral Brigade
will give or decline battle whenever ii
considers the weather sufficiently pleas
ant and the newspapers sufficiently
snubbed.
1t will also be the dictator of it's own
history, and the vindicator of its own
legs.
BY our celebrity and secrecy of move
meut, both in crossing and recrossing
Duck Lake, we neither pursued nor
were pursued by rebel.
The events of the last week may
swell with pride the feet of every Off
Ger and soldier in this brigade.
We have made long marches land
counter5marches, crossed and recross-
ed lakes; surprised the enemy by our
advance, brought back seven pieces of
our own artillery, and given heavier
blows than the wind.
We have nothing to regret, save the
loss of our brave companions, and in
this way we may be consoled by the
conviction that they fell in the holiest
cause ever left exclusively to the care
of Providence, but very little human
intelligence was deemed necessary to
direct it's arhitrament in battle.
Blue Seal.
GENERAL OF THE MACKERAL BRIGAEE.

quoting the punishment inflicted by
Mr.. Lincoln, as Commander-in- chief,
upon Lieutenant Edger'y-dismissing
him from the service--for voting the
Democratic ticket in New III amp

questions: "Is it not mockery and

the right of suffrage, SO long as the
President dismisses them in disgrace
if they vote the Democratic ticket
And will not the soldiers be coerced
in their suffrage, if the officers under

The New York Metropolitan Re
cord does not have very exalted opln-
ion of Gov. Tod. 1t thus speaks of
his Excellency:
"The Governor of Ohio is thing
for men to laugh at. He has seen his
State degraded, his office ignored, his
constituents outraged, the laws of the
State contemptuously nullifed by a
Government that has taken up arms to
put down notification at the South;
and yet he had made no sign, uttered
no protest, taken no measure to OBJ

Poor old Greeley, who between fits

ssEhe Exile"

This is q new term in American
history. Heretofore we have boasted
of being the only government on earth
where the oppressed of all nations
could find a welcome, a peaceful and
q happy home. Every object of ty-
rants wrath, from one end of the globe
to the other, on reaching this blessed
Gland Of Liberty was then himself
freeman. Our shores were made
welcome to all. and thousands and tens
of thousands fully enjoyed the oppor-
tunity thus given, and quietly and
happily sat down in peace to enjoy
the glorious change.
The Irish exileS-the Polish exiles
the Hungarian exiles, and the exilcs
from thousand oppressors, political
and religious, were objects of our pc
culiar regard-they feasted at public
banquets, added spice and enthusiasm
to our aspiring orators, and Still more
significant and of a much higher note
in history, these ''ExILEs' had the
warmest and deepest sympathy of our
people, where their oppressors hal
their indignant curses, and our country
became the asylum Of the oppressed
of all the world"
Little did any Of US suppose that we
should have lived to see the day when
a free bo American citizen, holding
the reigns of CONSTITUTIONAL power,
would set before our eyes acts that 50
long stamped the tyrants of Europe
with infamy. But the end is not yet.

commences in its greatest

United States Senator Henry vii
son, of Massachusetts,, at the anniver-
sary meeting of the Emancipation
League in Boston, few days since,
made speech in reply to Wendell
Phillips, who charged that Govern
ment had shown a lack Of vigor in tax
ing care of the negro. In the course
of his remarks Senator Wilson made
the following statement as to the rcas-
on why the nominations of certain mil
itary men for promotion in the army
were rejected in the National Senate.
He said:
Many an officer had failed to re-
ceive promotion on account of his SEN
timents on the slavery question. -
More than one man nominated for Ma
ior-General had been rejected for
words or acts against colored men,
The reasons why men were promoted
or rejected were discussed in eXecu-
tive session, but he had no right to
reveal what was done there.
