The speed with which Gov. Seymour

for tho defence of Pennsylvania and

general conduct Of the war. 1t shows
the difference between democratic and

GEN. STONE REvIvED.-It is reported that
after year of silence the material facts in the
case of Gen. Stone are to be published. 1t will
appear in the report of the committee on the
conduct of the war, who are rapidly prcpar-
ing their papers for the printers. The evil
dence they have against Gen. Stone is mainly
circumstantial, showing that he was very
friendly to the rebels: that he suffered them
to erect batteries and place guns in position
before his eyes without resistance; that he
was used by the rebels al receiver and de-
liver of important communications with the
north, and many other acts of reprehensible
kindness to the enemy, for which any high OF
ticer would justly have exposed himself to Sc.
we're punishment. The history, oral an(
documentary, of the battle Of Balls Bluff
| and the connection of Gen. Stone and othel
high officers Herewith, is also calculated il
the forthcoming report.

ministration; pledge their faithful support to
all measures necessary Tor the speedy crush
ing of the rebellion; commend the bravery
of their volunteers; and put on record their
renewed confidence in Gov. Buckingham and
his associates in the state government. The

power to conquer them.

Gov. PARKERs INAUGURAL.-The Camden
and Amboy rairoad-sometimes called New
Jersey for CONFERENCE.-The recently elected
James w. Wall, last year a state prisoner for
cause, as United States senator. Gov. Par
ker, recently inaugurated agent of the rail-
road aforesaid, follows up the atfront to the
government, with a defiant address, which
the Boston Post publishes at length with such
ornamental headings as these: BOLD De-
nunciation of Federal Assumption )" ''Illegal
Arrests, Suspension of the habeas corpus,
and emancipation repudiated," &C., &C. The
address, while family denying the constitu-
tional right of secession, is an elaborate apol-
ogy for and justification of the act. Gov.
Parker also declares his purpose to resist with
all the power of the state the exercise of GER
tain war powers of the government within its
limits, and urges peace as the basis Of the
''Union as it was" with the equality of the
states" unimpaired-cant phrases invented
in the interests of slavery, and never used ex-
cept when some new scheme is on foot to for
tfy and strengthen the system. Toward the
rebellion his disposition is at best equivocal;
toward the government unqualifiedly and alb
solutely hostile.

IIellas :

| traveller who visited the field of Magen-
ia in 1859, soon after the famous battle, and
while the thunders of the war for Italian lib
erty were yet echoing on the plains of Lom-
hardy, was as much surprised as delighted to
find plant which had survived the armed col
lision of Austria and France. putting forth
clusters Of pale blue flowers, delicate in form
and fragrance, between the broken wheels of
dismantled carriage. 1t is with similar
| pleasure that we turn from the sad realities of
the times, to an exquisite little volume, into
which scholar has distilled the spirit OF
Grecian travel. We are glad to meet with an
agreeable refutation of the maxim of an an
cient poet, that ''the muses. are hushed by the
| clash of arms"
Possibly we are drawn to this work by long
acquaintance with its author. Possibly our
| feelings are mingled with pride to recognize
the hand Of Worcester boy in these careful
pictures of foreign experience. Whatever
may have first attracted us to them, W are
detained by their varied merit. We hurry
with the traveller down the rugged, volcanic
coast of Italy, by the harmless terrors OF
Scyla and Charybdis, past island, bay and
promontory of immortal fame, until we enter
the port of Athens, ''the violet crowned"
Whether he visit the cities of Hercules or
of Theseus, the plain of Marathon or the
muse haunted heights of Parnassus, we feel
confidence in the learning which guides our
steps; we approve the taste which selects for
us the objects which ought to excite our adj
miration; we share the gaiety which lightens
our way
Mr.. Chase has succeeded in the attempt to
be instructive without pretension, and exact
without pedantry. BY the judicious admix-
ture of history with description, interest is
impaired to the latter and to the former, vi
vacity. 1t is not without pain that we see the
polished instruments of memorable scholar
ship brought to dissect the beautiful forms OF
the old Greek mythology. Yet the operation
is performed with so much love and tender
ness, that we half forgive the bold hand which
dissolves the charm by explaining the mys-
terry.
We discover a certain formality of style
which characterizes the student rather than
the man OF atfairs-a certain timidity of ex-
precision, as if the author were afraid he might
fail to do exact justice to the subject in hand,
or might be led by his enthusiasm beyond the
sympathy of his readers. TO the same cause
we attribute the modest size of the volume
The traveller has sifted his stories too careful
". He might have given episodes where we
have allusions-chapters where we have par
agraphs Why will he not publish his studies
in Egypt and Italy, only with less reticence
and more confidence in his power to entertain
and instruct?

CITY AND COUNTY.

WENDELL PUILLIPs ON THE PRoCLAMA-
TIoN-The largest audience of the winter,
with perhaps Il single exception, listened to
the lecture of Wendell Phillips, last evening,
on the proclamation and the war. Mr.. Phillips
briefly sketched the history of events which
led to the issuing Of the proclamation, and
gave at length his views of the real worth and
value of that measure OF war. His leading
idea was that during the next forty-five days
preceding the 4th of March-the etfectual
work under the proclamation was to be done,
in order to avoid difficulties and complications
of which no man can see the end. He CEN
sured the government partly for indifference to
the grand issues which confront it, and partly
for want of efficiency and courage equal to
their merits. The entire lecture was charac-
terized with the felicity of illustration and
power of statement of which Mr.. Phillips is a
consummate master, was listened to with the
closest attention, and was frequently and gen.
erously applaudcd.

bodies from each other, and all calculations
based thereon are incorrect.
Wendell Phillips addressed an immense au-
dience at Cooper Institute, Wednesday even
ing, on the presidents proclamation. The
vast audience at the close rose with one ac-
cord and sung the new version of the John
Brown song by Edna Dean Proctor =
J ohn Brown died on a scaffold for the slave;
Dark was the hour when we dug his halowed grave
Now God ayenges the life he gladly gave
Freedom reigns to-day
Glory, glory, hallelujah,
Glory, glory, halleluiah,
Glory, glory, hallelujah,
Freedom regns to-day!

Honor to him who has made the bondman free
Loved evermore shall our noble ruler be-

DIR. CALVIN CUTTER.-At large meeting
of the citizens of Warren, hundreds being
present, committee was appointed for the
purpose of procuring sword, sash, belt, and
revolver, as present for DIR. Cutter, who
went out as surgeon of the 2lst Massachusetts
volunteers. The committee having attended
to their duty, public presentation was made
in Union Hall, on the evening of the 10Th
inst, to the doctor, who is at home on short
furlough. The chair was occupied by Capt
Davis, and the presentation speech was made
by Rev. ID. Sherman, who made allusion to
the past services of the doctor in the cause of
freedom, and his anxious care for the sick
and wounded soldiers; also to the state of the
country, &c.
In reply, the doctor expressed his apprecia-
ton of the token of public favor (Which were
of the best quality of regulation for the United

staff of the ninth army corps; and since the
