in Michigan has been wedding a me-
gro man. Her parents are represented
as being quite wealthy people, who
have kept the negro as a servant in.
their employ, and made him, to all an

Col. J. 3. Palmer.

COl' y. d. rainier
We had the pleasure Of q converse
ton u few evenings since with this
noble officer who has been confined for
some time in our town, at the residence
of DR.. Jas. Porter, in consequence OF
severe wounds received in the battle
before Murfrcesboro. We recognized
in Col. Palmer an old acquaintance,
having known him in Murfreesboro in
the year IS, Col. p. raised his regi-
ment, the 18th Tennessee, in and
around Murfreesboro, and in the battle
his regiment literally. illustrated the
determination and glorious inyincibility
of men who fight for their homes. 1t is
actually true that many Of his mel
were fighting upon the rery ground
they 0uned, and, alas many fell in
defence CT those sacred homes. We
can have some idea of the desperate
courage with which they fought, by
noticing the fearful loss in the regiment,
being one hundred and thirty.fve out
of four hundred and fifty engaged, and
the Colonel and his entire staff, and
every company commander but two
being either killed or wounded. We
spoke Of the Colonel's stat, and by
way Of explanation would state that
Col, Palmer was commanding q brigade
ut the time Of the conflict. The reason
of the fearful loss in his regiment is to
a considerable degree attributable, no
doubt, to the fact that it occupied the
extreme right, and was opposed by
two full regiments OF the enemy, who
tried to flank him, but finally quaiIed
and took a backward doublo.Quick
rather than contend longer with men
fighting literally for their homes, Col.
Palmer, although wounded In three
places severely, never left the fed, but
continued to cheer and inspire his vet
cran soldiers. We are glad to be able
to STATE that he is fast recovering.

tercst transpiring at last accounts from
the front.
The enomy have n portion Of their
main army Il. Christiana, on the rail
road, which is ten miles from Nurfrees-
boro, and one mile from the Shelbyville
pike. They also have II portion of one
Of their corpS.&'Grmee at Roadyville.-
How far their pickets are in advance
of these points wo have not been rolia-
bly, informed, but presume they are
some distance in front Of their lines, as
We have continual skirmishing from
day TO day. Our scouts encounter
their cavalry pickets twenty miles
this side of Murfreesboro. The enemy
make frequent attempts to forage, with
a heavy force, and are us often re-
pulsed.
From every appearance along our
lines, it seems as if we were determined
to locate permanently at the point So
lected, or rather in Middle Tennessee,
wo should have said, as we may con-
eludo to move further to tho front, and
join Rosy" with q dish Of buck and
minnie, while we tako u few with the
shell.
Our combined cavalry force have
taken u little pleasure excursion,
and promise to bring many OF the
ABS" homo with them to spend soma
time with US, until their Butler, who
has boon catering for Federa.s gin
providing patriot martyrs for the
Tanks to appease their appotitcs) re,
turns to give Us an account Of his
stewardship.
There is quite q str among those
subject to CONSUMPTION, since Gen, Pill
low has been placed in charge of the
Conseript Bureau. There is an average
offorty per day picked up at and near
Shelbyville and Tullahoma. Some Of
these subjects become the most artfnI
dodgers tho country ever heard Of
LIT. McFcrran, who is making US q
short call, with authority from Gen.
Pillow, has already picked up fifteen,
and will soon add some of the "artfuI
dodgers" to his list. At the rates that
thoy are collected up now we may
soon increase our little Western army
several thousand. After these con
scripts have once smclt gunpowder
they will do al good fighting as did
those at Vicksburg. The wiry fellows
don't mind the fighting, but they hate
to be lying in camps until the battle
comes off. They like to remain al
homo until the eve of battle, and then
they will go out with their trusty rifles
and liant the Yankees like squirrels.
Something not accounted for seems
TO have retarded Rosecrans' progress
since we last communicated from the
front. Our troops made a reconnaissance
IN the vicinity of Spring Hill, this side
of Franklin, Tenn, and found that the
enemy in that direction had fallen back

The manifesto of the Mexican Congress, against The
operations OF the French government in Mexico, Hai
made lis appearance in this county. The proclamation
opens with a solemn expression OF the sense II .7SPon,
ssbnity which the Congress feels to be resting upon it
aad q declaration that it Is inAzxib'v determined to sap
port President JUsREZ in ans frm resolves TO tolerate
ne foreign Intervention in tho affairs II Mexico, DO mat
ter FROM how high or powerful a nation sleh interior
saes msy come.
Referring then, TO the eslumnies and outragea hesped
upon the MEXICAN people, it closes with the declaration
that the fall Of President JgARfz is the object Of the
present invasion. and on a par with thoss whleh, IN the
earlier portion Of his century, were msss the pretext
Of combined attacks upoR the first NAro EOS, and says
that the Mexican people viii now and forever reSect the
propositions CT the reigning Emperor Of France, to Sub
stitute another government in the stead Of the one Of
sheir choice.
The Congress also declares itself to be the legal rep
ressntstivs OF the nation, and, according to the pr0vis-
Ions Of the Constitution, fully invests the President with
AL the Alrh authority demanded by the crisis. It will
proceed legally and eonstitutiOnally, hBdlts present ex
tstsnee and action are cited a. the most eonvineing
proofs Of the regularity Of the administration pro
rress.T The Government will discharge all its duties
b.h at home and abroad, and IS an illustration Of this,
the re- establishment Of 3 good undertaking between
England and spsln Is trum hanfy cited. The repub
lie, IN accepting the devastating war forced upon her by
the French Emperor, viii conduct 1t strictly on the de-
ssnEsve snd according TO the usageE Of the age, but
with Armness and decision. They desire Pesss and
friendship with France, and entertain for the latter none
but sentiments OF admiration when shs goes forward on
the side CT justice, but they viii sacrifice neither their
honor or their dignity by a conpisncs with demands
unjustly made. The whols document is one that viii
command the respect and attention Of the world, to
which an appeal FOR an impartial observance OF the sit
ustIou l. earnestly made.
