The Union men and Copperheads have
had meetings at Lexington, KY. DR.. Breck-
inridge, on behalf Of the Union men, chal-
lsnged the Copperheads TO a joint debate,
bat the latter declined. DIR. Breckenridge
and others then addressed large Union
meeting. The greatest enthusiasm prevailed

nounces that the only basis upon which h,
will negotiate is the absolute and uncOndi-

at their head, declare themselves in favor o

it is commonly said that Admiral FarTs
