Col. LEWIS ON THE WAR.-Col. LEWIS,
of the 2Sth Wisconsin, formerly the brave
and humane surgeon of the I'd Wisconsin,
and taken prisoner at Bull Run, is home
on a brief leave of absence. At Milwau-
kee, Wednesday evening, he made a short
speech before the Union League. The
following is from report of bis remarks
given by the Wisconsin
1t grieved him to hear it said here in our
own State that the Southerners cannot be
conquered. Such talk must be stopped.
If the people do not resent and stop it,
the army will lack that support which is
due to it.
The causes of the rebellion are known
to all-have been a thousand times de
bated-the effect will follow, and punish
ment will be melted out to those who inau-
gnrated it. He said, keep up your courage;
reverses may come, but when the sun goes
down the whole land will be tree in fact
from end to end, and we will have a Re-
public-not a mockery as we have now !;
but Republic bsptIsed in blood. lis
true the South will fight till they are whip
ped. He had been often asked since mis-
return from the army, if the people OF the
South have resources to carry on the war /!
His answer was: Yes, they have provis-
ions, they have and can procure arms.
they have men-but they can put no more
men into the field.
We have more men and money than
they have and must conquer as sure as
ten men can prevail over one, as sure as
intelligence will prevail over ignorance
and fanaticism we must conquer in the
fight;

THE NEGROES,

The negroes everywhere have an idea
how it got into their heads they cannot
exactly tell, but it is there-that the 7aL-
kee troops were their friends, notwith-
standing the contrary assertion of their
masters, whom from Infancy they have been
taught to obey. They everywhere crowd
ed upon oIr columns and begged to be
permitted to go along, and not unfre-
quently brought one or more horses with
them as sort of bribe. They pointed
oct where valuable horses were concealed.

Confederate troops, and at several places
sat up all night to bake corr cakes for the
Yankees, and for which they asked no re-

joyed at the sight OF our soldiers that they
gave vent TO their feelings ia prayer,
thanking Jesus fervently for sending Us.
