thrown upon the defensive by the universal dis
appreciation which the proposal for an armistice
encountered. One article even stated that the
Government had never expected the blockade
was to be'suspended during the armstiee.
The Presidents message produced an excel
lent effect and has not been successfully sssail-
ed in any quarter, while his oarnestnesss ua0der-
alton and forbearanee have captiYated all who
looked ut it fairly.
It appears that during the recent capture Of
Holly Springs, by the rebels under Van Dorm,
they burned hospital Just ready for occupation,
although Van Dom promised that it should be
spared. This was one Of the finest in the South
ern Department, having 2, 600 bunks, an immense
lot Of drugs and surgical appartus, and thou
sands Of blankets, sheets, &C. This proceeding
was in violation Of q promise and all rules OF
civilized warfare and is an evidence Ofthe hsrbar-
ity and want Of principle in the rebel officers.
An attempt was also made to destroy the gen.
eral hospital which contained over 500 sick. By
order Of Van Dorm q lot Of ordinance stores
which had been stored in the building, consist
ing OF powder, shells and cartridges, were piled
in front Of the hospital and fired. Medical officers
protested against this but were treated with con
tempt, and before there Was time to remove the
sicks the walls were riddled with flying balls
and ,hells and finally an explosion shook the
building, destroying every door and windOMRnd
Wounding about twenty men. It was BY the ut
most exertion the hospital was sayed as shelter
over the men from the night air. Added to this,
3 rebel Cavalry officer named Brewster, who stst-
ed he had been detailed By Van Dorm to march
of every sick man who had not been parolled,
collected together, pistolin hand, about $50 sick
and forced them g r1se from their beds and fall
into line, threatening to shoot the medical Off
GERS who expostulated and made the poor fell
laws, suffering from typhoid fever pneumonia and
diarrhCsa, start with them on the road.
The men fell down in the street, and had 70
rise again for fear Of being shot, when they were
SO weak that the eli isFh4nsf motion WAS aFouy-
On being importuned if there was sny thing IN
the name Of humanity that could be done TO in
ducc him to stop his brutal proceedings, he
finally consented to let them alone on receiving
a paper signed by all the surgeons present, stat
ing that the men we're too sick to walk, and that
their removal was an impossibility. This state

FIRE on SUEDAY-A PORTION OF LLOYD
L Co.'S BREWERY BURNED-A HEAVY ExPLo-
s1ox.-About half past four O'Clock on Sun
day afternoon, Lloyd & Co.'s brewery, on St.
CIaIr street hill, Was 5iseoEared to be on fire
in the kiln room, which is in the front part of
the addition to. the building built two years
ago for malt-house. There was fire in
the kiln, about one hundred bushels Of malt
being on the floor over the kiln. A man en-
ployed in the brewery named Peter Sinclair,
first discovered that the building was on fire.
He opened the door of the kiln room, when
the flames which filed the room burst out in
to his face, burning his face and one hand
severely. The alarm was given at once, and
the steamer and several hand engines we're
quickly on the ground, superintended by
Chief Engineer Hart. Shortly after the en-
gines got to work, there was a terrific explo-
sion of gas in the kiln, which blew out the
front wall, cracked the west wall very badly
and raised the entire roof, which is of tile,
about four inches.
Several men who were in the building at
the time-among them Mr.. LlOyd-were
knocked down by the force Of the eOneus-
sion. Mr.. Lloyd injured his arm cOnsidera-
bly,. Fortunately no one was seriously hurt,
although several had narrow escapes from
the falling bricks which came from the
front wall. There were about !, 800 bushels
of malt over the Office, which was not much
injured. There is an insurance of $1,000
upon the building, but none on the stock; 4;

aThe wine produced, has, when Two
years old, the flavor of nice Madeira, and
is a pure, invigorating and slightly e1hil-

ly acid quality Characteristic Of all the
products of sorghum, and has been found

A brisk sldrmish took place at the Wautug2

10 men. The expedition, as characterized by
General Granger, has been one Of the most haz-
ardous and daring ofthe war, and was attended
with great hardships and irivationsY owing to
the almost impractcable nature OF The country,
the length Of the route, nearly two hundred
miles each way, and the inclement season The
important results Of this expedition can hardly
be overrnted, severing, as it has, the main rebel
army communication between Virginia and the

men deserve the thanks Of the country. Great
credit Is aso due to Major General Granger, IN

COMMODORE A. D. PERKINS TO COMMAND
AN OCEAN STEANER.-The Monroe CONNER
eiai says that Captain Perkins, late of the
steamer City of Buffalo, is to take command
of a passenger steamer, to run between New
York and New Orleans. This steamer is to
be one of the best class, andis to be in read
iness to commence her trips early in the
spring. Captain Perkins is one of the oldest
and most successful steamboat Captains on
the lakes. He was formerly a sailor on the
ocean, but came to the lakes, we think, as
early as 1888 The first steamboat he com
manded was the old Anthony Wayne, we'll
remembered by all who were acquainted with
the lakes in her day. He afterwards COM
manded various other steamers, and was sue
cessively in command of the Southern Mich
igan, Western Metropolis, and City of Buff

popular ocean Captain, and his hosts of
friends in the west viii wish him an abund-
