possession Of the L. S. government. In regard

c;ye the African slave trade, Mr. benjamin
Gays:
"1Ir. Lamar is we'll aware how firmly fixed

That Letter List Again.
Disappointed and chagrinned in its fail.
ure to secure tho advertising Of the list of
letters for the current year. the Nsrs ven
tilates its malignity and spleen in person
al attack upon one Of the proprietors Of
this paper. 9 ~ h. - -s-- -.
It Is sufficient answer to the "suspi.
eions"' which haunt that paper, to state
that our affidavit seas CORRECT but that to
appease the suspicion" Of the Ntrs that
We had been unfair, at the request Of the
P. n. VIC filed second affidavit covering
letter for letter al that portion Of the p. o.
law which relates to the bidding for the list.
+ In regard to the other Suspicion" We
will state that at no time in the history Of
this paper have its publishers seat the en-
tire p. o. list in any week to the Post OF.
Ace for distribution. for the reason that not
unfrequently our press room is filled with
subscribers, at the time Of going to press,
who take their papers as fast as worked of,
preicrring not to await their deposit in the
P. o. Besides we never get to press on
Tuesday, in time to get all CT our town pa
pers deposited for distribution, from the
fact that we have a large country mail to
make up for points west Of US, which leaves
early Wednesday morning. Last week we
were delayed beyond our usual time in
going to press, and did not get our p. u.
list in cntirc until 10 o'clock .. m. Of
Wednesday (though going to press p. m.
Tuesday,; and in the meantime large num-
bers Of our subscribers called at the Office
and got their copies, which will account for
the difference between our affidavit and de-
post, which the Eems discovered by smell.
ing the back kitchen of the Post Office.
With this brief explanation and affirma-
ton Of facts, we turn the slanderer who
bestraddles the Neus Pegasus over to the
contempt and destation Of discriminating
public, with a warning that there is limit
to our forbearance, which its insults, if
continued, may soon reach. ..,

ARMrsrIcE.-We see indications over the
country Of growing desire to have an ar
mistice declared between the north and
south, that representatives Of the two Sec
tons may meet, and, if possible, agree up
on the restoration Of the Union. This has
been, in part, the result Of the tendency Of
the general government to overslaugh the
Constitution Of the states in rebellion,
while at the same time insisting that the
states are still in the Union. 1t strikes us
that oil this is unnecessary. If the rebels
want peace all they have to do is to ground
arms and behave themselves. Peace will
assuredly follow.

Since our last issue up to Monday night
Of this week, the weather hac been very
pleasant, but not cold. Monday night it
began to rain, and at this writing Tuesday
p. mt is mild and wet large quantities
OF rain has fvllen, and the ice is breaking
up along shore. Holders Of pork, large
quantities of which have come in during
the past week, begin to feel uneasy, and
hope that it will freeze up solid, or give way

R0bellesses.

R0bellesses.
The Leavenworth Bulletin records the
case of pretty rebclless who inveigelcd a
lieutenant to her house and there signalled
to band Of guerrillas, who promptly ap-
peared and shot the Union officer, killing
him instantly. The rebel beauty fed the
next day, leaving behind her q letter to an
uncle and aunt in which she boasts that
her beauty has accomplished much for tour
glorious confederacy," and adds that she
is content to offer her beauty, eirtue, even
life itself, upon her country's altar"
d Those who have read closely the history
Of this war, will agree with us that the re-
bellion has received much Of its encour-
agement from the rebel women OF the sunny
sou,h-their smiles, their tears, their loves,
their sirtus even, being held as nothing,
% that they might advance the interests Of
the rebellion.
Nothing in the world so truly symbolizes
the blessed hereafter, as true womanhood
nothing so faithfully represents hell on
earth as depraved womanhood. One of
the poets says shell hath no fury like a
woman scsrned." 1t may be true, but we
insist that hell hath no hate like q confed
crate rsbelless.

Life Insurance.
We notice the following published in

suggest that at no season of the year can a
man make better investment than by in.
surfing in the excellent company named

To TIE CITIZENS OF THE NORTH VEST
surance Comply Of the State of Wisconsin,
desire to call your attention to the fact,
that you have an institution in your midst,
that is success in its working operations,
Of which we are proud. And we would
say to those who propose to make Life In.
surance, (Which by the way, perhaps is the
best investment Of the age for any man to
make, that you can do as we'll by making
such insurance in this Company, as in any
other.
This Company is now in it's fourth
years business, having assets of over one
hundred and fifty dollars for every hun.
dred dollars of computed liability. 1t
started without guaranteed capital, and in
its experience has proven that none was
necessary, as its nett accumulation is now
greater in proportion, TO the amount al
risk and age of risks, than that Of any
new company in the United States, and
a majority of the older companies have not
SO large per centage Of accumulation
We are doing the b. sincss as carefully and
economically as it can be done by any
Company. and we believe that it is your
interest to associate yourselves with us, in
the work Of not only making provision for
protecting the widow and orphans, but also
prove to the whole world that we can have
reliable Insurance Companies in the West,

atc Of the United States, Governor Morton,
of Indiana refused to send in his message
10 the legislature, and his followers in the

News and Items.
The Richmond papers are bowling over
the loss of Murfreesboro and denounce
Bragg for the lying dispatches he s:nt in

The appropriation bill for this year will
amount to 81 900, 100000. The army ap-
preparation alone calls for SOC, 900, 900.
The scarcity Of news from vicksburgh,
is accounted for by the fact that the rebels
have established a battery at Cypress Bend,
below Helena, and that no gunboats can be
spared to convoy dispatch boats beyond
that point.
Reports from our army Of the Potomac
shows that our pickets extend from Fal
mouth to King George court house, about
