Srgt. Palmer and Members Of Co. c.:
The kindness which you have con.
ferred upon me is so great and so unox-
pected, that scarcely know what to say
in reply. This evidence Of friendship
from Company which | am proud 10
call myself member OF, will ever be
treasured in my heart as among the hap
piest moments of my life. Should | at
tempt to express the gratitude l feel,
should fail for words are inadequate to
express my gratitude and pleasure for
the receipt Of the generous gift How
much | appreciate il you can never know,
for l am unable TO tell you-but this
much can say, that while there is a man
of you left am with you. On an oc-
casion long since past, you have proved
your bravery; and, in the official report
Of that affair, you were highly compile
mented. | doubt not that on the next
occasion you will prove yourselves as de-
serving the high commentator bestowed
upon you there. / know you will; and
be assured that | will be with you. Ae-
cept my thanks, my most heartfelt thanks,
for this unexpected favor.
In days Of peace we were friends to-
gether-we never dreamed of the neces.
sity arising which would unite us in
closer ties, but il came, and we are to-
gether as we areas brothers in our
country's cause--it is my earnest wish
that we may ever remain So whether as
a company Of soldiers organised to put
down rsbellion--or as citizens pursuing
the peaceful avocations Of life. Before /
close, / would like to refer to our brave
comrades, who have fallen on this ground
which we now occupy. Lieut. Aipheus
Chase, aud private Edward De Deimer-
let them be forever treasured in your
memories as soldiers and brothers who
have gone to their last account while de-
Tending the best Government ever fram-
ed by man.
l trust no more Of you will share the
fate which they haye--that Rebel bull
let's may never find you-but that all Of
you may live 10 return TO your homes
and friends,

An Old Radical.

King CHARLES, OF England, was ICON.
sentative" and Cavalier" He was
high-born aristocrat, who abhorred radi-
calism, as much as some other folks do;
so much indeed that he would put man
10 death, rather than let him be rad
ical. CROMWELL, on the other hand, a
subject Of King CHARLES, was Puritan,
a Plebian, and terrible Radical so much
SO that he rebelled against his royal
master, cut his head Of, and saved Eng
land.
In speech 10 Parliament in 1876, the
Great Protector, defending his admins
tration, touched upon doctrine which is
popular just now with the friends Of Sc
cession and the enemies Of the National
life, and exposed its fallacy, almost as il
by anticipation
"Ii nothing should ever be DONE" said
he, "but what is according 10 laaO' the
throat Of the nation may be cut while We
send for some to make law! Therefore
certainly it is pitiful beastly notion tC
think. though it be for ordinary govern
ment TO live by law and rule, yet if &
government in extraordinary circum-
stances go beyond the law even for self
preservation, it is TO be ciamOred at, anC
blattered at. When matters of necessity
come then, without guilt, extraordinary
remedies may be applied.
And must say do not know one ac
ton of this government, no not one, bu
it hath been in order to the peace anc
safety of the nation

The Evansville Journal reports an in
cident of the war, which exhibits the low
est degree Of villainy:
During last fall, when Col. Foster was
capturing guerrillas in Kentucky, and
driving out the rebels and robbers in and
around Madisonville and Hopkinsville,
he had the assistance of colored man,
familiar with the country and people, as
a guide for his scouting parties. DE was
with the Union forces some three months
and rendered valuable services to the
country.
In November last, he came to Evans
vile, having pass from Col. Foster, by
which he came through our lines. He
has been here since that time earning an
honest living by hard work. His owner
was a guerrilla in the rebel service, doing
his utmost to destroy our Government
and TO murder the brave volunteers who
have gone out TO defend this city from
plumber aud pillsge.
This delenseless colored man (whose
services in the cause Of our country ought
to protect him from outrage was set up
on and seized to-day, (Feb. 23,) while at
work in the lower part of the city, by a
couple of vagabond white men with the
intention of carrying him to Kentucky on
speculation They had no pretense oil
claim to his person or to his services, they
had no shadow of authority either in law
or equity. IL toas naked attempt TO steal
a man and sell hin, for gain!

The telegraphic report of debate in

The telegraphic report of a debate in
Congress, the other day states:
Mr.. Richardson said il was since the
inauguration of cOnhscationaRnd enamel
patton that We had no success. Let these
be recalled and the country could yet
be saved.
Mr.. RICHARDSON is badly posted. The
most brilliant victories Of the war, and
the most widely spread and formidable
demonstration of Union sentiment in
the rebel States, the rebel journals them
selves being witnesses, have been achiev-
ed and made since the passage of the Con-
fiscation act, and the issuing of the Proc
lamation. Mr. RIoHARDsoN, like good
many other CONSERVATIVES" or "outs,
is so Eager to make a strong point against
the Administration, that he ignores the
testimony of current history.

Sword Presentation.

On Friday evening, February goth, in
camp at Murfreesboro, Tenn, beautiful
sword, sash, and belt, was presented to
Lieut.. j. @. PURDY, Co. G, 9th Regiment
Michigan Infantry Volunteers, by the
non commissioned officers and privates
of his company. The following brief
Address was made by Sergeant FRANK
A. PALMER:
Lieut.. Pwdy:
The Company of which you have so
long been a member, and acted in the
capacity Of Commander, has purchased
this si0ord, sash, and belt, which / now
hold, to be presented to you for that high
esteem which we have ever cherished
towards you, and hoping the time will
soon come when we shall all be able to
call you Captain. You have at all times
and on all occasions stood by us in the
hour of peril and danger, and as a Com
pany will always stand by you. In
presenting this sword. sash, and belt,
you have our highest compliments for
past kindnesses, and hoping the future
will be as prosperous and happy to us
as the past. Take this token as coming
from your Company friends in respect of
that honor which each of us have, in your
gentlemanly department, and that po-
sitiOn which you now occupy.

War Expenses.

Those newspapers which are forever
beratiRg and denounsing the Admins
tration, on account Of the magnitude Of
its war expenses, are for the most part,
newspapers which sustained the Admin
istratiOn of President BUCHANAN. Now
daring the Administration of this emi-
nently patriotic functionsry, an expedi-
ton ofleSs than 10000 soldiers was sent
out, under General ALBERT s. JOHNSON,
to bring lew thousand refractory Nor
mons at Salt Lake City to terms. The
expedition is known as the Utah expedi-
ton. General JOHNSON marched his
troops out to the Mormon territory, and
returned without firing a gun, or even
administering an oath to a solitary Nor
mon. The cost Of this campaign, how
ever, was not less than $6,000G90, al
though it did not last two months; and
yet the very journals which are now
daily filing the air with protestations
against Mr., LIECoLE's prodigality, de-
Tended Mr., BUoHANANs conduct Of the
Utah Expedition as model Of economy,
and generalship. Now 10000 is Just the
one hundred part Of 100000, and this
is just the proportion between the Utah
army, and the army raised to suppress the
Southern rebellion. Again, two months is
just one-twelfth of twenty -four months,
which is the proportion of the Utah cam
paign to this war, up TO the present time,
in point of duration, So, that if we
multiply $6,oOoOOOby 100, and the pro-
duct of this by twelve, we will ascertain
exactly what the present war would
have cost the Government had il been
conducted according to the policy of that
eminent conservative Democrat, JAMES
BUCHANAN, of blessed memory. Let us
now figure it up:

General MoClellan's Iusubordination.

Hon. THADEUs STEVENS spoke the other
day in Congress of McCLELLAN's course,
and PArtieaiarinod his disobedience OF
positive orders on four separate occa-
sions. He caused TO be read q letter
from Gen, SooTT TO Secretary CAMERON,
in September, 1861, complaining of Nc.
CLELLAN's course in writing to the Presi-
dent and members Of Congress direct,
forgetting that he had an intermediate
commander, and that MCCLELLAN prided
himself on treating him (SooTT) with
neglect. This caused SCoTT TO publish
= general order concerning Irregularities
in the army, which was intended for Nc
GILLIAN more than any other officer, but
MCCLELLAN continued this course daily,
regardless Of the order. Another or
der asking MCMILLAN to make returns
TO him (ScoTT) of the exact force in his
command, was treated with like indifIer-
enca, Gen. SCOTT didn't officially notice
this disobedisnce Of orders, fearing that
any conflict of authority near the head
Of the army would be highly encoura-
ging to the enemy.
We fear that suspicion, which we,
IN common with thousands Of others have
for months entertained about General
MoCLELLAN-that he is self-o onceited,
heAdstrong, insubordinate, and thor
oughly selfish-will soon be confirmed by
irresistible evidence. He has capacity,
but he is seheming military politician

Col. MoHenry's Case.

In the Kentucky Legislature, Colonel
WHTAKER, in a speech on this case
Took the ground that the dismissal OF
Col Mollenry was in accordance with mil
itary law and discipline. He spoke in
high terms Of Col. McHenry as a gallan {
officer and gentleman, but could not vote
for the resolution justifying his order.
He would cheerfully vote for the presen-
tation Of a sword TO Col McHenry for
gallant conduct and high merit as an
officer, II separated from these resolu-
tons, but he could not vote for them, as
they took ground which was not tom
able and would snbVert the discipline
Of the army, and he thought the Legisa-
ture had nothing TO do with the matter.
He considered this endorsement Of Col
MoHenry would be quasi condemnation
Of upwards Of thirty other Colonies in
Kentucky, for not having issued just
such orders as he had The other
Colonies were equally loyal and patriotic
with the gallant Col. McHenry.
Col. WmTAKEB talks like one who
knows the need Of subordination.
