tempted to hare his motion cngrattcd on some
Of the military bills, bnt fai1ed.

Detroit, &C., have been made glccful oYer
copperhcad victory in Marshall, Mich. This
is literal case Of the Dutch taking Holland.

obedience Of orders" had to do withit.

As In the case Of the yisitof Archbishop O6in
Of New Orleans to Archbishop Hughes of
New York, 1t probably "means something"

ering. The report Of his death Was trick Of
the enemy to put the Federal commanders of
their guard.
