Colonel DENNY, being unexpectedly
called out, will proceed to make his rec
ord as a /" Union Democratic Colonel, :"
and request our reporter to be very
careful to " incorporate his remarks
in his next communication to the
JOURNAL" It is expected that the
Colonel will take the yexed question
of the negro" out of the hands of
Congress, and settle it In his accus-
toned radical manner, even though it
may be little in advance of his party,
; After the Colonel has subsidized,

pressible call of his brave compan-

diamond ring, and how his gallant
assault upon the young lady's heart
was disastrously repulsed. 1t is an
