two white men named Waters, and a mulatto named Wilson, had been hurrahing for Lincoln, and otherwise acting in a manner deemed exceptionable. A gentleman, named Rouse, told them that if they were in favor of Lincoln and the Abolitionists, they had better go North. One of the Waterses said he would if he had the means.

The Defat in Kentucky --Let it Rouse the South from its Lethargy. The defeat which we have sustained in Kentucky is a misfortune to be deplored; but which may be repaired, and, indeed, improved to our advantage. The particulars of the battle are as yet too meagre to warrant a safe conclusion as to its causes. It seems that our army, under command of Major-General Crittenden, attended by Brigadier-General Zollicoffer, marched forth from its entrenchments and attacked the enemy fortified in a strong position on the other side of a stream of water. The fight seems to have been severe for some time, the enemy acknowledging seventy-five killed in a single one of his regiments. But at an evil moment General Zollicoffer was shot down, and then our forces lost all confidence, fell into disorder, and fled. It is quite plain that they relied upon General Zollicoffer in the fight, and that when he fell, they would put no trust in his superior in command, General Crittenden, and g

diers.by a Virginia Matron. Oh! come to the rescue, soldiers gallant and true, Calamities thicken, and foes not a few, Are invading the South, our once happy land, Oh! come and enlist, firmly to stand. From forces and field, from river and lake, Come, come for your country's weal is at stake, From the city's thronged way, from the moss-covered dell, Come forth in good earnest and all will be wall, Our cause it is just, O, be not lukewarm, But resolve in your hearts to weather the storm, Rouse, rouse, from your slumber like patriots of old, And come to the rescue, with hearts strong and bold, Our brave Southern band must never give way, But work, the storms low, and dark be the day, Our rights and our homes, the was cry rebound, From mountain and take, from hamier and town, Now, now, is the time true patriots to test, For our coast is in peril, and the far distant West, And Virginia, Virginia, the home of my heart, Her glory, I trust, will never depart, Tho' her border is bleeding

their last great death struggle for the expiring liberties of their country. We must fight with the spirit that animated our fathers in the hour of battle — the spirit that reused to deeds of daring the soul of Marion, Sumpter, Davie, and Caswell, and their half-armed, half-fed, half clad, but iron-clad, unconquerable followers, who are buried beneath the soil of the South, and whose honored graves God forbid you should ever permit to be desecrated by the tread of a victorious invader! Rouse yourselves, then, to the emergency of this great crisis, and you will be able to drive back the Goths and Vandals of the North. The war they wage against you is a war for rapine — for plunder — for their own aggrandizement and your degradation — for domination to themselves and subjugation to you.--Already have they proclaimed by their legislation that confiscation, attainder, deprivation of the rights of suffrage, the doom and the mark of the traitor and the slave, are to be the share of

sted parties in exchange for that of Palm Oil. The bet was made at Man head. The word reindeer is ordinarily spelt with an "e," and Mr. Ten Broeck bet a hundred to one that it is so spelt, and the bet was taken by Captain Stewart, clogged with the condition that it should be decided by "Johnson," which is perhaps the only dictionary in common use which states "raindeer" to be the proper spelling. It was charged that the bet was a "bubble" made up between Colonel Burnaby and Captain Stewart; and it appears from the correspondence that the Hon. Mr. Lawley testified in writing that "Captain Stewart, in the presence of Mrs. Lawley and himself, had owned to having discussed the spelling of the word reindeer with Colonel Burnaby before the betting commenced, and that they made a 'double' bet on the subject." Subsequently, however, this testimony was withdrawn, Mr. Lawley asserting that it was given under a misunderstanding of the case, and Admiral Rouse apologized to Colonel Burnaby.
