the firing was in the vicinity Of Dutch Gap, and
that the Rebel gunboats had a hand in II, posi-.

The PLOT TO RELEASE THE JOHNSON S
ISLAND PRIsoYERs.-A good many per-
sons laughed themselves not quite to
death but very nearly into conyulsions
at the statements in regard to a conspir-
acy among the rebel refugees in Canada
to effect the escape of the prisoners on
Johnson's Island. But the rebel secre-
tary of the Navy gives full confirmation
of those statements. He says in his Of
fcialreport:
During the months of July and Au-
gust, sent twenty-seven commissioned
officers and forty trustworthy petty Off
GERS to the British Provinces, with orders
to organize an expedition, and co-ope-
rate with army officers in an attempt to
release the Confederate prisoners confn-
ed on Johnson's Island, in Lake Erie.
From time to time learned that the ar
rangements made were such as to insure
the most complete success A large
amount of money had been expended,
and just as our gallant naval officers
were about-to set sail on this expedition,
the English authorities gave information
to the enemy, and thus prevented the
execution of one of the best planned en-
terprises of the present war.
The moral of this singular affair is
that it won't do merely to laugh at the
rumors of extraordinary plots in resssalu-
tionary times, Such laughing is peril
GUS, while gravity, even if misplaced,
costs nothing,

Our Brave Soldiers.

The following extract from letter
of Rhode Island soldier, in the Army
of the Potomac, is equally applicable to
the Western commands:
Re-enlisting progresses with astonish-
ing rapidity, the brave veterans astonish
themselves and each other The I'd will
personally report in Providence next
week. Nor is it the large bounties and
the thirty-fve days furlougbs alone that
induce this result. 1t is largely a feel
ing among the men, that having borne
the heat and burden of the day, they
will cheerfully toll the remaining hour,
that they may receive the reward that a
grateful nation will lavish upon its de-
tenders and deliverers. These, who have
borne the brunt of the battle, are un-
willing to be silent and inactive parta-
kers of final and complete victory, with
its fruits as "Peace on earth and good
viii to men" These, who have passed
through "the great tribulation," wish
also to witness "the great consumma-
ton"

vehement and even seditious resistance.
They have denounced the war, mobbed
recruiting officers, killed troops, sent af-
ter deserters, and organized bands to
protect deserters at home, and sencour-
age others to come home. The same
men who voted bounties so promptly
last fall quietly prevented Democrats
from taking them. The muster
rolls will show that there is not
one Democrat an eUery ten recruits from
any county in the State. In this county
there is not one in twenty. In Shelby
there is not one in fifteen. So it is all
over the State. Democratic counties
paid liberal bounties in few cases, but
Democrats let Union men take the bonr-
ties and stay at home themselves. We
regret to have to allude to this subject
in this way, but when a sheet that has
made itself notorious as sympathizer
with the rebellion and supporter of every
measure that could cripple the war or
render it hopeless, boasts Of what its
party has done, we can do no less than
show what it has not done We should
have been the last to manifest party
affiliations" as the Sentinel, with that
admirable lucidity which distinguishes
its style, says, but when an attempt is
made to manufacture party capital Of
what in the same sentence is declared to
be not party action, we are indisposed
to view the attempt with indifference,
when it is made by a paper
that has fed and fatteBed to the size of
a new three story brick house on its ha1

who have heartily and consistently sup

DIDN'T CARE THEN IF HH DD.-A
gentleman from Boston CHANGED to find
himself among party OF ladies away
down East this summer, in the enjoy.
ment of some innocent social play. He
carelessly placed his arm about the waist
of as pretty a damsel as Maine can boast
OF, when she started and exclaimed:
" Begone, sir, don't insult meI'
The gentleman instantly apologized
for his seeming rudeness, and assured
the half offended fair one that he did
not mean to insult her.
mop she replied, archly. "Well,
if you didn't, you may do it again.
