Dan Voorhees,.

In another place we print letter writ
ten by member of the 43d Regiment
Indiana Volunteers, in reply to Mr.. Voor-
hees's appeal to the soldiers" We
copy it because We believe it to be the
expression of the prevailing feeling
an the soldiers relative to that gen
tleman's appeal
In regard to the expression used by
Mr.. Voorhees,, in his Sullivan speech, to
the effect that soldiers ought to be fur
nished with collars with the words, My
Dog-A. Lincoln" inscribed On them,
the soldier correctly says that hundreds
Of witnesses can be found who will ties
tify that he used the expression or some
thing similar to it. Our information was
derived from a member of Co. I, 18th
Indiana Zouaves, who heard the speech
and at once notified US of its contents.
In addition, several employees on the
railroad, who heard the speech, substan-
tiated the truthfulness of the report fur
nished US by the gallant Zouaye Mr..
Voorhees, own organ in Terre Haute,
in endeayoring to explain away the OBJ
nox!ous sentiment, virtually conceded
that he gave utterance to an expression
very similar to that charged against him.
Mr.. Voorhees, denial will make but slow
Roadway when it is compelled to climb
over such testimony.

speaks from the best information, that
while on recent trip up the river he
was told by former friend, who is now
an insane and unscrupulous rebel that
JEFF. Davis and his cabinet had decided
to employ emissaries to destroy every
steamboat navigating the lower Missis-
sippi and Ohio rivers, Offering as an in
ducement to these miscreants, in accom-
plishing their barbarous mission, sixty
per cent. on the estimated value of all
boats and property thus destroyed
His informant assured him that the
Ruth had already fallen a victim to this
scheme, and he would soon boar of 9th
ers. He being merchant of this city
and known to be a holder of Western
produce, was advised, in friendly way,
to hold what goods he had, as there was
sure to be rise in produce. The whole
plot struck him as SO diabolical, barbar-
Gus and improbable, that he paid no
further attention to it than to note it
down in his memorandum book, which
he has since shown US, and from which
we have copied the main poines.
On his way up the river, he heard
threats from some suspicious looking
strangers against the Imperial, the very
boat which was fred at st. Louis, under
circumstances of grave suspicion
1t was further told him that the man
who burned the Ruth had since made
his way to Richmond, received his &C
per cent. on the value of the boat and
cargo, 100000, and had been heard
from by his friends in Memphis, whc
were vastly elated by the streak of gooC
fortune of their diabolical friend
