rebellion: tells about the wonders to be accom-
plished by Kirby Smith and Magruder, beyond
the Mississippi and heroizes the immortal
JEFF. after the following fashion:
President Davis, we are happy to say, has
not yet fallen into the hands Of the sIeuth
hounds who have been set upon his track. If
the worst should befall him, and his escape be
found impossible, 1t Is supposed that he will
die hghuDg rather than fall into their hands
such death of such a man would enlist the
sympathy OF Europe in the cause of Suffering
people; bnt his life and leadership would bs
preferred by that people to his martyrdom.
Inc spectacle OF this heroic leader at bay with
his two thousand followers, among the myriads
OF the North, disdaining while living to sur
Iencer the cause for which he has Struggled
curing these terrible four years, is of such
absorbing interest for the whole civilized
world that all political topics pale into insie-
nifcance beside it. and the attention of man.
Kind is fascinated by 1t in a long drawn agony
OF mingled hopes and fears"
