REPORT OF GEN. LovE.-We are in
debted to Major Gen. Love, late of the
Indiana Legion, for copy of his report
to Governor Morton, of the organization
services and condition of the Legion.
1t is an interesting work, and is
highly creditable to the General and the
State

by some one versed in military matters,
whether or not it improves cannon and

the rain for several days unprotected
The query is suggested by seeing one

A Ro1AND FOR AN OLIvER-The Chat
tanoega Rebel is furious for an invasion
of the North. 1t thinks fifty thousand
veteran rebels can move unhurt and
almost unchallenged from Cincinnati to
Boston" Infaming its imagination with
this exciting chance, it blazes out SO:
"They can lay in ashes the richest
and most populous of Northern cities,
leaving behind them belt as broad and
burning as the Elliptic. They can run g.
burning plow-share over the hOt-beds of
ruling fanaticism, from which sprang the
Ate turned loose on the South."
The Indianapolis Journal, not to be
outdone in grandiloquence, and to prove
an equal familiarity with mathematics,
comes back on the Rebel in the follow
ing rich strain:
A "belt" of destruction as broad
and burning as the Elliptic would be
unpleasant to view, likewise to endure
but we give the rebels due notice that if
they reduce our fair land to waste as
broad as the Elliptic, we shall insist
on the South being devastated as wide as
the "Parabolic If we are to have
mathematical measures of devastation,
the Rebel may rest assured that the
North will cultivate the biggest curve in
comic sections. The suggestion that the
Rebel meant to say Ecliptic," and
, made Mrs Darlington miss of it, We
dismiss with the cOnfemnt which ouuhi
to be visited on all who would doubt The
civilization and erudition of our South
ern brethren"

Archbishop Hughes on the War----
Peace for the Present Impossible.

At the dedication of the St Teresa,s
Church, New York, on Sunday, Arch
bishop Hughes preached the sermon
In the course of bis remarks, he thus al
luded to the national crisis:
This is neither the time nor place for
me to enlarge upon the events which
have so broken up the unity of the Chris
tian Church Nevertheless, it should be
the prayer of every good man that the
human race might be somehow or other,
even miraculously restored to peace, and
brought on the rock of ages, so that the
gates of hell shall not prevail against
| them"
We might pray to God, by some means
that it is impossible for man to penetrate
to bring our unhappy affairs to some con-
clusion-to end the effusior of human
blood That is a legitimate prayer
Though no one can say that even in that
| case there would NOT ue prayer or DoTn
sides of the line-one praying against
the other. We can only hope that out OF
His mercy, for both sides of the line fol
the WI oe country, He, in his all-wise
and ali-powerful providence, will bring
about peace and prosperity of this peo-
pie. These thoughts have just entered
my mind on the present occasion, and |
hope that in all our endeavors we will
not forget our devotons at the altar
praying, l will not say for peace, which
appears at this moment ridiculous, since
there is only one side can give peace ant
the other won't have it. We may pray
the Almighty to bring matters to a con
clusion. One side can make war, but il
requires two to make peace, and it APP
pears that there is only one side now
that wants it. We had peace once
They did not preserve peace. Now, it i
one party that is for peace. The othe
scorns IT. In that state of the case wha
prospect is there for peace?

Due TO MERIT-The conduct of the
members of the Indiana Legion of the
vicinity of Leavenworth, who captured
the Raiders Eat Blue River Island the
other day, was above all praise.
Composed of men and boys, many of
them not over fourteen or fifteen years
of age, none of whom had ever been
under FIRE, they boldly attacked the rob-
bers, and after few rounds forced them
to surrender.
Private John Callahan, of the 1st In
diana cavalry, who led the Leavenworth
boys, by his gallant conduct on this occa-
sion nobly earned promotion, and we
hope Gov. Morton will recommend him
the favorable consideration of tibet

New Books.-J. B. Lippencott & Co.
of Philadelphia, has through the polite
ness of Mr.. John Healy, Bookseller, cor
ner of Main and lst steets, laid upon our
table two new works just issued by their
publishing House, one entitled the Com
pany Clerk, by Capt August v Kautz,
9th United State Cavalry and Colonel OF
the I'd Ohio Volunteer Cavalry
This is valuable work to soldiers in
the field, showing how and when to make
out all the returns, reports, rolls and all
papers, and what to do with them, also
how to keep all the books, records ant
accounts required in the administration
of a company, troop, or battery.
The other is Hon. Mrs. Norton's new
work entitled Lost and Saved and from
cursory examination we should think
is an interesting book.

CuARLEsroN.-Weare not in the habit
Of making predictions, and we do not
mean to do SO with reference to Charles
ton. But we say now that We do be-
,ieye that that city will not be taken. by
the enemy. We have verbal accounts
about affairs there which encourage this
opinion very decidedly. The enemy are
much disappointed, and not little cha
:srined at the powerful resistance they
Rave encountered.
What painful event was that by
which our own batteries sunk one Of our
steamers bearing off a Georgia regiment
which had been doing duty at Fort Wag-
ner! That men who had undergone such
an ordeal for their country should be
shot at by our own guns, several Of them
killed, wounded, and drowned, and the
boat which bore them sunk in the har
bor, is, indeed shocking to tho publ,
mind! The occurrence. every one wonlt
suppose, must be due to some culpabl'
oversight or blunder. Ii so, those wh'
are responsible for it ought to be held t
proper accountability.

Am says that the ''army Of the South

were the Constitution restored-the
Judges would be compelled to allow the
writ Of Aabsas corpus, the trial by
Jury. andliberty Of speech and the press.
These are Hovey's reasons for not re-
storing the Constitution. The rebels, he
thinks. should not be tried in the district
in which the offence was committed, be-
cause the iuries would never hang them,
and the main object in trying a rebel is
to hang him, right or wrong.
Hovey then comes to the very milk Of
the cocoanut. The estates Of the rebels
have all been forfeited. he says, by their
crimes, and he evidently thinks the Yam
KEGS have fallen heirs to them on account
of their virtues. All is to be confiscated

are good fellows, and never committed

Nay, they consider it rather q proof OF
rare virtue. We have no doubt he speaks
the truth when he says nine-tenths Of

There is nothing new in this letter.
We have long been aware that the Yam
KEGS propose 10 dispossess the present
inhabitants of the South-t0 turn loose
the negroes-and to settle the country
with Yankees. But the open declarations
Of such opinions, by an officer high in

what is to be their fate, if the Yankees
conquer them, and Hovey tells them.
