We are better feeling people here this

past. The sad news from the South was
truly hesrt-rending, and as words Of bet

There is nothing-st such time as this
that can so terribly harrow up the public
soul as the calamity of defeat After such
butchery IS that Of Fort Pillow, We do
not want more disaster. 1t is no wonder
that hearts should beat heavily when it
was found the command Of Banks wss ex-
posed to similar doom.
We do not go into the arena Of battle as
do our enemies, with the determination to
win at all hazards. We do the blowing,
shey the work. General Dix said, "The
first man that hauls down the American
flag, shoot him on the spot" We adopted
it as motto, and yet the first msn that
was shot for taking down any flag was our
own Ellsworth.
We have been talking boldly these two
years about war of determination, and
they gave Us Fort Pillow. We investi-

Congress is at work earnestly again,

Soldiers are pouring in, and out to the

35th-one of the regiments they visited

of the visit they enjoyed on Sunday, was

driven from the field and comes before our

The Trlumrh in ..oai.Iana.

By the last arrival from New Orleans,
We have particulars Of the Unisn triumph
in Western Louisiana. Though our forces
were ct first defeated, yet their final tri-
umph Was magnificent. It was the rebels
this time who were LED into trap. By .
brilliant coup de main the rebels were led
into position where they we're slaughter
cd with immense havoc. The second line
Of battle, formed by the rebels, having ex
ultngly advanced to the crest Of hill
were slaughtered by the sudden discharge
Of artillery and rifles so that the remain
der Of them fed in horror, throwing down
their arms and pursued by our victorious
legiOns. The rebels as usual, fought des-
perstely but were beaten. This final vic
tory puts q new phase upon affairs in
Western Louisiana and promises the final
expulsion Of the rebels from that region.
