discussed in public session the idea Of Offering
3,eace, on any basis, to rebels in arms. There
Gas been no serious division in the Cabinet on
the subject Of peace or slavery, and far from

L REBEL WALL FOB MORGAN.
The Richmond Dispatch Of day before ycs-
terday says that the capture of Morgan is a
distressing blow to the ConfederacY. It
las stood and can still stand harder losses,
but the pride Of the people was much in

result, but It seems to us that an expedition
which put river navigable and unfordab1c
for hundreds Of miles, and fully command
ded the whole distance By the cnemy's
gunboats between himself, and all assistance
must have been rash and foolhardy. Ney-
erthcless, he has done the enemy great dam
age in this long incursion.

FROM CINCINNATI,
The Case Of John Morgan,

ClSc1,NAr1, July ee.-Morgan claims to
have been raroled by mIlitia captain to
whom he surrendered. Gen. Shackleford,
eho arrived shortly after, refused to recog-
nisc the parole, and the matter is to be re-
frrrt d to Gen. Burnside. It is said there Is
good evidence that Morgan surrendered to
Majnr Rue. Il go, his claim amounts to
notlhng, and, In any eIent, the brigand will
not find himself at liberty TeEy soon.

In Coventry, Oct. "A. Of diptheria, George II.
only son Of Levi and Elvira Applebee, aged Il
years and II months.
A light has gone out of our dwelling,
A lamb from the pleasant home fold.
All bitter the tears that are yelling,
For George down under the mold.
A note is lost out Of our singing
There's lull in lies melody sill,
Yet each passing moment is bringing,
Sweet thoughts that our spirits can thrill.
Warm thoughts give our dear immortal,
Whom angels loved better than we,
And took him through life's outer portals,
Safe over the shadowy sea.
Too brief was the stay Of our lilly,
Sixteen balmy and beautiful years,
Then autumn winds, cruel and chilly,
Brought darkness and anguish and tears.
Oh, God, how we struggled, commended,
With the angel of Death when he came,
In vain 1t is over and ended,
Thou chasteneth, Lord swallowed thy name (!
The world seemed a wilderness, dreary,
And lustreless all the far skies,
When the life of our idol, earth weary,
Burned low in his beautiful eyes,
We hung DER his pillow, death shadowcd,
Till evening looked in on our woe;
A dear form shrouded and faded
Oh, Death WE WERE LOVING HIM SOL
We laid him to rest where the flowers,
Next summer, shall blossom and bloom,
Where happy birds sing in the bowers,
And the sunlight shall soften the gloom.
Dead, dead and our spirits shall SILVER,
And sink with languishng pam -
We know the benefcent Giver,
Will give us our darling again.
Gone, gone from our household foreyerl
Ay, saved from all sorrow and sin.
We would not recall him, no. never
The angels have taken him in
