the lives of fifteen thousand of the

"Butchcr Of Frcdcricksburg,' this re-
Erred warrior is now Governor of the
Spraguc plantation, sometimes called

deep distress and trouble Of mind be-
cause the loyal Treasurer of the puny
State appropriated all the revenue to
his own use, leaving not scab to pay
tho heroic Governor his salary. The
Treasurer, with his sticky fingers, was
also noble patriot in blue. Gen.
