city on Tuesday held their so-called Union
meeting, tor which they had been for some

els present were greeted with the strains of
Yankee Doodle and the Star Spangled Ban
ner, SO long ignored by them.%All the
speakers were men who six months ago
were prominent supporters of the JEFF. Da-
Wis .Confederacy. The resolutions adopted
express indignation at the suspicious ON the
part of the Northern people and journals
that the recanting secessionists are not sim
cere in taking the'oath of allegiance; pro-
nounce such imputations utterly ground

acquiescence in the results of the war, in
Guiding the abolition of slavery; pledge
confidence and the greatest respect for
