average sum in corresponding period
heretofore. 1t has been determined also
to apply to the Legislature for bill in

A Washington special says Col. Leav-

the effect that in Gen. Custars' battle of
the Washita only fifteen Indians were
killed and only thirty lodges attacked in
all, though Gen. Gustav, in his report,
placed the number of lodges at fifty-three
and the Indians killed at one hundred
and three. Mrs. Blinn, who was reported
to have been surrendered by squaw
during the fight, was shot by our own
soldiers, according to Colonel Lesven-
worths statement, she having started to

Der of Cuban gentlemen have been in
that city under suspicious circumstances
On the 4th inst they chartered the steamer
Henry Burden, stating that she was
bound for Nassau. About the same time
steamer arrived from Charleston, laden
with coal, and hauled alongside heBurden
The work of emptying the coal into the
latter vessel was Immediately COM
menced, and continued all night. After
which she went TO sea, having cleared
for Nassau. 1t is pretty well understood
that the Burden has a quantity OF arms
and other munitions of war on board,
and that large sums of money have been
offered for volunteers to ship on board of
her. No doubt that the vessel is bound
for Cuba to enlist in the service of the
insurgents.

what they Think of their Comrades
Murder-Governor Brownlow De
nounced as Responsible Therefor
His organization of the Militia an
Insult TO the soldiers Of the Union
From the Nashville Banner.l
1 tits with full appreciation of the sen.
timents by which the Boys in Blue :
were actuated that we give the following
communication place in our columns
ASH BARRACKS. February II. 1859.
To the Editor of the Republican Banner;
| At meeting of members of Company
| G. 45th United States Infantry, held in
these barracks, the following resolutions
we're unanimously adopted:
Resolped, That in consequence OF the
outrageous murder Of eur beloved fellow
soldier. private John Ford, we deeply
deplore his uutimely death, and claim
that it was q premeditated murder, and
that il requires the utmost vigilance OF
the civil law in order that the murderer
may suffer its just penalties.
| Resolred, That we believe, that the
military organization, known as Brown
low militia, is useless, ineffective, and,
so far as their efficiency in suppressing
lawlessness and riotous proceedings is
concerned, is entirely abortive; that they
are organized for the suppression OF
mythical order, known to the press and
the people, additionally only, as the Ku-
Klux; that, in reality, in soberness and
in truth. there is no such clan in this
State. more than there is in Seymour,
Indiana, or any other loyal State.
Resolped, That we deplore the imag-
mary necessity for His Excellency9 the
Governor, calling out said militia; and
Furthermore believe that his object is not
for the suppression of the Ku-klux so
much as to re-enact the scenes OF 1867,
in order to elect Radical Governor and
hold the State in the power of the Radi-
cal party.
Resolped, That in the murder of pri-
yate John Ford we recognize the COM
plicity and abetting of Governor Brown
low fully as much as we do the compli-
CITY of Mrs. Surratt in the assassination
of President Lincoln, if not more.
Resolred, That we know that there is
a sufficient number of soldiers of the
regular army in this State, to suppress
ali unlawful and riotous proceedings, |
and to preserve the peace, and that the |
act of the Legislature empowering the |
Governor to raise said militia, is sub.
versiye of the public good, as well as
reflection upon our efficiency as soldiers
Resolred, That In testimony of our
profound respect for private Ford, lam
guage fails us to pronounce eulogy. He
was soldier in the truest sense of the
word. Long since he became man of
temperate habits, was loved by his CON-
rades as few soldiers ever are, and was pos
sessed of generous heart and intelligent
mind. To know him was to love and re-
spect him. If he had blood RELATIONSHIP
whom we know nothing-let them rest
assured that his remains received the at
tentiou, which none but those VINO loved
him could have bestowed. he has em.
barked on the long voyage that ends only
in the haven of rest beyond this LIES
tempest. God rest his soul
