White wrote that, if he was not rescued from their hands within twenty-four hours, he and the other officers would be assassinated. Col. Hovey came to me and asked whether I would join a command of four hundred men and cut our way through to Lexington. My men unanimously volunteered, but just as we were starting a despatch came from Gen. Hunter, ordering Col. Hovey, with his whole command, to march to Tipton. I was thus left alone, having but one hundred and sixty cavalry with me. But my men were determined to go through, and at this moment Col. Eads, who had a few men under his command, nobly came forward and offered the services of him self and eighty of his men. In an hour our preparations were complete, and late at night, in the midst of a terrible rain, we started. My force consisted of Company C, Capt. P. Kehoe; Company

Mr. Lamperts offered a resolution censuring the Chicago Tribune for its course in the Fremont controversy, which on motion of N. Eisendrath was laid on the table; the ground alleged for the rejection being, that it would be beneath the dignity of the meeting, after having declared their views in such momentous and important matters, to pay any attention to such a small concern as the above-named paper. It was moved to send a copy of the resolutions to President Lincoln through our Representative in Congress, Hon. I. N. Arnold; but it having been remarked by a number of speakers that Mr. Arnold was a warm friend of Gen. Hunter, it was not thought advisable to request the services of the gentleman in his behalf. While the committee on resolutions were out, Sheriff Hesing, Wm. Rapp, and T. Hielscher made eloquent speeches, and the meeting adjourned with tremendous cheers, proposed by C. Butz, for John C. Fremont, the next President of the United States.--Illinois Staats Zeitung.

onal officers. The next day they were all started to Richmond. The morning after their arrival there Messrs. Bocock and Pryor, of Virginia, and Keitt and Boyce, of South Carolina, called upon Mr. Ely and stated that they should use their influence to secure his release. They made an application for this purpose to Jeff. Davis, who called a meeting of his Cabinet and the result was a consultation of several hours. The Cabinet generally favored Mr. Ely's release, but Davis, Benjamin, and Hunter were opposed to it, on grounds of public policy, and Walker, the Secretary of War, sent an elaborate communication stating that the Cabinet had come to the conclusion to deny the application. Mr. Ely's arrival was announced by the Richmond papers and the whole press of the South, by which he soon became notorious. Visitors came to see him by hundreds, and it was not unfrequently the case that he had forty in his room at a time. Among them were Breckinridge, Humphrey Marshall, and ex-Min
