New ORLEANS. January Cat spec
ial meeting of the Board of Underwriters,
held this day, the following report ofthe
Committee appointed at previous meet
ing was unanimously adopted:
ResolUed, That this Board hasread with
feelings of deepest sorrow and mortitica-
ton the published insane dispatch of
General P. H. Sheridan to the Honorable
Secretary of War, under date of the 4th
instant; that we esteem ita gross, wanton
and unjustitiable wrong and libel on the
fair fame of every citizen of our State and
city; this Board has been established for
purely commercial purposes, no political
question has ever been discussed or pro-
posed, but in view of this criminal out
rage upon the best interests of our city
by stranger in temporary power, not
only warrants, but demands, from us this
expression of our denial of those vile as
persions upon our citizens; that we give
our assurance to our brother underwriters
at the North and West that we claim t.
be true and loyal citizens of the United
States, and as such we are law-loving
and w-obiding people, and that life
and property are as safe with us as with
them, for the truth of which we conf
IDENTIFY appeal to the noble army of knight
Templars from every State in the Union,
who recently visited our city; that we
can but express our surprise that any one
occupying the position of General Sheri-
dan should presume to such knowledge
of his alleged important facts upon such
brief opportunities as he could possibly
have during the short time he has been
in the South, and the only excuse we
find for such utterances is the suggestion
that comes to US this morning from New
York, that this dispatch waN written in
Washington, and sent to Gen. Sheridan
before he left Northern command; that
we earnestly appealto our Northern breth-
ren, to the Congress of the United States
to their love Of liberty ana justice, to ats
ford us that protection from this present
violence and from the wrong and outrage
which may follow, which as fellow-citi-
zens of this great country we have right
to demand; that we cordially indorse the
manly and patriotic expressions of the
Cotton Exchange at their last meeting.

General Lee on Getting Ready Tor

During the late war, while the Army OF
Northern Virginia was encamped around
Orange Courthouse, General Lee called upon
Mr.. Joseph Hidden, and asked if Mr.. Hiden
could entertain two young ladies at his
house, which was situated just outside the
village. The General said he wished to have
these young ladies near him for while, that
he might have the privilege of visiting them
occasionally.

MI. Hidden. mo; not daughters, but nieces
though feel very much as if they were my
dausIters," said General Lee. Mr. Hidden
readily consented to entertain the young
ladies to the best of his ability; and in few
DAYS they were at hone at" Montpelozo."
OF course, they received much attention
from army officers, and night after night the
parlor was full Of company to late hour.
One day General Lee met Dir. Hiten on the
street, and asked, "How are the young Ia.
dies getting on" Mr.. Hiden replied that
they were quite well, and seemed TO be en-
Toying their visit. II am afraid they give
Mrs. Hidden good deal Of trouble" sal ! the
General. "Not at ALL" said Mr.. Hidden.
"They have good deal of company. and
are kept up late ut night entertaining their
numerous visitors, but have noticed that
no matter how late they sit up at night they
are always ready for breakfast when the bell
rings, and never keep the table waiting for
them" 500, yeSw said General Lee
"they haze been ueN raised" A. l..

vance; but to our correspondents inquiry

Freemasens' lodges have always been distin.

who got into olock.case, according to ira
dition, ever witnessed the mysteries and

accompanied her gift with letter, in which
she dweis On the humane feelings exhibited
| by Freemusons, aud hoped that they would
endeavor to inalleate the duty which man
owed Of kindness and gentleness to dumb
animals. The COON at Freemssons' Hall
selected for the presentation of the thr, e
chairs was the Zetland room, wherein
hangs the beautiful painting of Sir Chistc
arher Wren. and this room was laid out for
Me occasion with the greatest care by Dir.
G. B. Payne, the Grund Tyler of England.
Tie three gftchaifs were in their place,
aud were splendid specimens of carving.
