Pun Royal, whence Sherman can carry
ou a winter campaign very near the
spinal marrow Of the. revolt. Dispatches

their disposal, TO use wherever it may tc
necessary.
All goce On we'll as yet, and if there be a
cloud, the rebel contortfons ployc that the
shining eide is not toward them.

tratcd Of starving our prisoners to death in
any fruitful land- The two facts will 70 into
history together as Illustrating the dendish-

:1boundlng plenty, with corn and provisions
on every side, they deliberately penned up
brave nlrn to die by thousands of starvation.
Satan, the first founder o! secession, may bor-
row BONE hints from his followers among the
Southern cAiyalry.
Recent proceedings in the South Carolina
State, in consistency with her ingraincd seces-
sion doctrines, was about to secede from the
empire OF JET. Davis. Resolutions have been
introduced in that body, dcuouncing as I'M.
constitutional, Davis? propositions to cmanci-
pate the slaves and abridge the freedom of
the press, declaring that the States are not
amenablc to the Richmond Government, and
advising the olhcr States not t. submit to its
1lsurpations.
There is proposition to meet our boys in
blue who 1olluw Sherman with right royal
Christmas cheer on the Southern coast. The
West, whose sons are there, will join in that
right heartily, and will only need to ssceiEe
tho details Of how and when to send forward
the turkeys md nincc pfcs.

said Sc1nmcs' new pirate has been wrecked.
This u,isadventure may be the key to his 70

The season is upon US in its risor. How to

like 1t.
The meeting called Tor tonight to coacer
action with reference to the Educational
Land Grant to this State deserves the atten-
tion Of al interested in the Industrial Arts
and their advancement in this city and State.
A Detroit dispatch refers to extensive and
doubtless adequate preparations to thwart
rebel plans against that city, whose proximity
TO the border renders it especially exposed.
OUR GALLANT B0Ts.
God bless the boys that went out from
our streets, and from quiet pursuits Of civil
lie, came to be heroes in their rally round
the 1nx, rauying where patriotism rneant
peril, and loyalty life or death. It is some
