Hon. g. r. Shepley:
DEAR SIR:-Dr. Kennedy, bearer Of this, has
some apprehension that Federal officers, not
citizens of Louisiana, may be set up as candi-
dates for Congress in that State. In my view
there could be no possible object in such an
election. We do not particularly need mem-
bers Of Congress from there to enable us to get
along with Legislation here. What we do want
is the conclusive evidence that respectable citi-
zens of Louisiana are willing to be members of
Congress and to swear to support the Constitu-
tion; and that other respectable men there are
willing to vote for them and send them. To
send parcel of Northern men here, as repre-
sentatiyes, elected as would be understood (and
perhaps really SOY at the point of the bayonet,
would be disgraceful and outrageous. and were
a member of Congress here would vote
against admitting any such man to seat

The Striker" costing the worst Of II.


The Boston daily papers are fast working up
to standard in their appearance and freshness,
and the strike is practically dead, nobody be-
ing injured but the strikers themselves. The
Advertiser of Friday said:
eve have to thank great many of our
friends and subscribers for the expression of
their sympathy in our efforts to resist the COM
bination which has undertaken to control our
office, and for their offers OF assistance. These
come in divers forms. One gentleman calls
to assure us that If his papers were to come
with blank columns for year from this cause,
he would submit to the deprivation rather than
see us fail in this matter. Others offer their
assistance in the labors of the office, until such
time as our force is again in full working or
der. One gentleman tells US if assistance of
another SORTS needed. to draw on him."
The Advertiser has been informed that
large numbers of typos are among the return
ing soldiers, who will need employment and
preference for whom seems dictated by a gen
erous patriotism.
The experience of the Journal has been
similar to that of the Advertiser. 1t says:
Judge of one of our courts kindly sends
us word that he is ready to read proof, or to
work In any other position where his labors
can be made available; the Cashier of one of
the leading banks in State Street sends word
that he hopes the proprietors of the papers

essary to call on them-and from many Others
we nave received words of approval of the
course which the newspaper proprietors have
TAKEN IN resisting this odious tyranny.
This shows that the old Bunker Hip spir-
it still lives" The Heratd has got along so
well that it has ceased to make mention of the
attempted despotism. For while the propri-
etor assumed the entire charge of the editori-
al department, while his editors and reporters
set the type.
In the Traveller office, two clergymen-one
Methodist and the other Universalst-
working "at case," having volunteered their
services to pull the paper through this trouble.
Prof. Agassiz, of Cambridge, sent word to
the Post that he would be content to 90 with
out his paper, and pay for it, as long as the
strike lasts. The venerable Nathaniel Willis.

WE understand thatfhe convicts in the State pris-

abandoned Criminals They think this class of citi-
zens 10 sufneiently numerous and respectable TO be
treated with more Observation-Disclosures.
We have no intention of discussing the open
and vindictive sneer involved In the above ex-
tract, directed at those who sincerely believe
kindness is better element for the reclama-
ton of the fallen, than harshness and unfeelng
denunciation. Temperance Journal.
Our amiable neighbor has, in the above,
committed that very common folly known as
shooting ones own granny" In the brief
paragraph quoted above, upon which our
neighbor has preached sermon on the duty
of kindness-to which we take no sort of ex-
ceptlon-we had not the slightest idea of
sneering, pindictively or otherwise, at sthose
who sincerely believe kindness is a better ele-
ment for the reclamation of the fallen, than
harshness and unfeeling denunciation." The
paragraph was suggested by seeing in a DEM
ocratic paper, of the most intense coppery
stripe, a whining article complaining because
its friends were spoken of as "copperheads, ("
and intimating that now, since the election is
over, they (disloyal men in the free States)
should no longer be regarded, spoken of and
treated as suspected persons. They are SO
numerous, they occupy such high positions
they sport SO much wealth, they represent SO
much intelligence, and they constitute so large
an element of the aristocracy, that they should
be respected and respectfully spoken of. This
was the spirit of the article which prompted
our paragraph. As the Temperance Journal
never uses any harsh language, but is always
loving and kind, and uses oily speech, per-
haps it was natural for its sensitive and deli
cate nerves to be shocked by our unguarded
language.
Since the above was written we learn that
the Journal has changed hands, and is nothing
more or less than the Weekly Courier with a
different heading, and column or so of mat
ter on the subject of Temperament That ac-
counts for the milk of that cocoa nut. OF
course, we have no more to say.

The independent Lectures.

This course is to be inaugurated on Friday
evening next, WILLIAM LLOYD GARRISON
giving the first lecture. Concerning the OBJ
ject OF the course no word of ours is necessary
in order to commend it to the people of Port
land. ALI alike, Union citizen and Democrat,
are interested in taking care of our brave SOL
diers as they have occasion to pass and repass
through this city, on their way to and from
the front; and to provide the means for such
a work of patriotism as this, is one of the lead
ing objects of the course, for all the net pro.
ceeds are to be appropriated for the benefit Of
the Soldiers Home in this city.
Last year about one thousand dollars were
Melted from the Independent Course, although
they were not thought of till the season had
so far advanced that lecturers were obtained
with difficulty. The first lecture was not de-
livered till after Christmas. 1t is believed a
larger sum may be confidently reckoned upon
this season, especially as the proceeds are to be
used for home charity,-to uphold home
institution.
1t is not to be disguised that the lecturers
are selected with reference, somewhat, to their
well-known views touching the great ques-
tions of the day. They will deal with live
questions with living issues-and sti- the
hearts of our people in favor of answering
patriotism, unconditional loyalty and universal
liberty. Mr.. GARRISON, one of the truest
apostles of Liberty who has ever lived, will
open the course. His is one of the clearest
minds of the age. He deals with ideas and
thoughts rather than with fancies and frost
work. Portland will give him generous re-
ception. His noble fidelity to the cause in
which the country is now struggling, entities
him to such reception

Conduct of Gen. Stanley and other officers
The Importance of the Victory.
k NASHVILLE, Dec. 2.
Gen. Wood succeeds Gen. Stanley in COM
mapd of the 4th corps; Gen. Stanley being un-
able to take the field. His desperate bravery at
the Franklin battle mainly contributed to turn
what threatened to be disastrous battle into
a glorious victory. When part of his COM
mand fell back before the charge of the rebels,
he rushed to the front, and although wounded,
led on the charge, waving bis hat in the air
and calling upon his men to follow him. He
succeeded in rallying his faltering troops who
repealed seven successive charges made by the
rebels. 9 BSe
Col. Opdyke, of the 18th Ohio, commanding
brigade, especially distinguished himself in
the engagement.
COL Schofield, a brother Of Gen. Schofield,
and his chief of artillery, distinguished himself
by the admirable positions in which he placed
the artillery, and the manner in which he
handled it.
The great importance of the victory 1t
Franklin cannot be over estimated, as it check
ed Gen. Hoods onward course and gave our
troops time to make due preparations to meet
him.
SECOND DISPATCH.
NASHVILLE, Tenn, Dec. 2.
There has been slight skirmishing between
our cavalry and that Of the rebels all day. A
complete line of Entertainments encircle this
city. A portion of our cavalry forces encoun-
tered the rebel cavalry three miles from the
city on the Franklin pike The rebels could
be seen plainly advancing towards them. 81
Our troops then retired towards the city
Night coming on but few occasional shots
were fred.
1t is rumored that Hood is endeavoring to
cross the Cumberland River with large cav
airy force.
Many experienced officers predict heavy
engagement tomorrow. Our forces occupy
the lines around the city, and are in line Of
battle. fh f4 A
