r1S~1t has been stated, time and again,
by the friends Of the Government, and
as often denied by those who are now
copperheads, that the rebels had assur-
auce Of assistance from the northern
sympathizers. Occasionally evidence is
turning up that goes to prove the truth
OF the assertion. On the capture Of Port
Gibson, Miss, member of the 24th
Iowa found letter which bad been ad-
dressed to citizen of Port Gibson from
New York, from which We give the fol-
lowing extracts:
- new 'o.s, Feb. 9th, ls'',
1t may now be said that you live in
foreign country and that flag which once
waved over happy and prosperous coun-
try, is no longer recognized by you men
of the South, the stars aud stripes to
which we all looked for protection is 10
longer held in esteem by our brothers Of
the south. This should not be so. The
South should claim it and let the world
know that the flag which their ancestors
fought to protect was still an emblem Of
their liberty. | hope that the
South viii! be allowed to withdraw peace
fully, but should there be an attempt to
coercion, you will lind that the fight will
commence here at the North, for the
friends of the South here are legion and
are determined that no armed fore shall
leave here unmolested for the purpose Of
shedding the blood Of our brothers of the
South. As for myself | stand by the
rights Of my native land, and can ex-
claim, "witL all thy faults | love thee
still' II. A. p. Creamery,
% Beekman St, y. 7.
There is no doubt that the above il

were written to the slave States. Is il
to be wondered at, that the South rebel
ed while receiving such encouragement
from the North : Who are the most Il
blame for this war, the men who are la
arms lighting for their supposed inter
este, or the towards who encouraged
them ia treason and then deserted them,
A comprehend is detestable animal all,
way you fix him and deserves no plac,

our forces have succeeded IN taking a
portion of the rebel works. The forts
remaining to be taken are very formida.
BILE aud command the entrance to the
