the Government consists of three distinct Departments, the Executive, Judicial, and Legislative; and that it is the duty of every one to sustain these departments with all the constitutional power which may be necessary and proper for the preservation of the Government in its principles, vigor, and integrity, and to stand by the flag which represents the Government, the Union, and the country. Mr. Holman remarked, while the gentleman censures the Administration, he and his constituents were, he supposed, for its support now. Mr. Vallandigham replied that he was responsible to his constituents for his public course, and not to the gentleman from Indiana, at whose instance the Holman gag was yesterday adopted. Mr. Stevens made no remarks, though the rules allowed him an hour to do so, but simply sanction. moved that the Committee rise, which motion prevailed.

he legally-constituted tribunals of the country; that upon this platform we stand, and, by the grace of God, will abide the issue. Resolved, That the present Administration, in the high position they have taken to preserve the integrity of the Government, have our sympathy and our undivided support, and that with the country we will stand or fall; and to this we pledge our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor. Resolved, That, in the recent spectacle presented to us in the so-called Union meetings held throughout the country under the auspices of Messrs. Wood, Davis & Co., we recognize a more subtle foe than open hostility, and that such enactments, under the shelter of the American flag, are only suggestive of a touching inquiry contained in the Holy Writ, Betrayest thou the Son of Man with a kiss? Resolved, That the proceedings of this meeting, together with a copy of the resolutions, be published in all the county papers. W. H. Scott, Chairman. H. P. Bush, Secretary.

Stanley, and the Kansas Mounted Volunteers, under Capt. Wood, were ordered to charge immediately on the town, while the rest were directed to follow up in double-quick. The town is situated at the confluence of Swan Creek and White River, which protect it on its northwest and southwest sides, while to
