Pa GENERAL MANK.-We had the
pleasure of meeting Brigadier General
Mank in the city on Saturday, who is
on his waEto Matamoras, having re-
ceived the appointment of United
States Consul to Mexico General
Mank entered thearmy at the Begin
ming of the war. He was first enlisted
as a private soldier in the 18th In
diana, and run in that regiment to the
rank of Sergeant during, the three
mouths service, After muster out,
he entered as a Corporal in the 32d
] Indiana; was promoted to Sergeant,
and to Second Lieutenant;2 then to
First Lieutenant; then to Captain;
and so on up till he reached his pres
ent high and honorable rank. All of
this ihonor and distinction was fairly
won by actual and ,meritorious service
in the field, and for distinguished gal
lantry.s We learn from one of the
Generals German. friends and adj
-mirers, that he was once a newspaper
carrier in this city. is there gov
eminent on earth under which such
distinction could, be gained from a
standpoint like that? and yet, with
all of our glorious institutions, our
freedom, and liberal form of govern
ment, there were those who had
grown aristocrats under the protecting
folds of the American flag, who sought
to destroy this free Government.
When the appeal was made to arms,
and after thousands of precious lives
have been sacrificed on the altar of
their country, we heard it proclaimed
in the street, and from the housetop,
and in conventions assembled, that
the war was a failure, the rebellion
a success, ? and the Federal soldiers
denounced as I" hirelings, I and now
that the war for the Federal Union is
success, and the rebellion a. failure,
our soldiers in this County have been
cooily told by one who, discouraged
the Federal arms, that those who OPP
posed the war are now at the breech
of the musket, and the soldiers and
their friends lat the point, Of the
bayonet." Soldiers cannot forget
these things Too many of their noble
and brave comrades lie in martyr S
graves for that. i2atkllo9 r.
