laim to know her sentiments; and expressing the opinion that it is not the popular wish of Kentucky that the troops shall be removed, the Governor's official statement to the contrary notwithstanding. he declines to order their removal. He winds up his letter by a pointed intimation that the Governor is a "rebel;" and, whereas the Governor had signed himself "very respectfully your obedient servant," he omits the "very respectfully," and signs himself without it, "your obedient servant, A. Lincoln." It is thus that the once proud and honored State of Kentucky finds her efforts to maintain peace with the enemies of her own section reciprocated by the vulgar officials at Washington. Subjected to every humiliation that a proud State could endure, she is about to be launched, after all her pains to avoid it, into a ten-fold more bloody fate than she would have had to encounter if she had promptly and gallantly cast her lot with the South. We contemplate the scenes that await her
Early history of Abe Lincoln. --A correspondent of the N. O. Picayune, writing from Nelson county, Ky., narrates the following: Since my sojourn here I h. A highly respectable old lady of this county, Mrs. Patsey Gates, soon after Lincoln's election, said to a friend: "Well, who'd a thought that Abraham Enlow would r friend. "Lord ! don't you know ?" replied honest Mrs. Patsey Gates; "it is Abe Lincoln, to be sure." "How can that be?" asked her friend. "Why, I'll tell you," repor its, and so Abe ran off, and went to Illinois, where he changed his name to Lincoln; but there are fifty men now living who know Abe Lincoln to be the same Abe EnAbe Lincoln to be the same Abe Enlow who stole Jim Craycroft's saddle. There is no one who has become lower since Abe Enlow has become a traitor President, under the stolen name of Abe Lincoln. Buecome a traitor President, under the stolen name of Abe Lincoln. But we all said that the boy who stole Jim Craycroft's saddle would never come to any good and."
An M. C. From North Carolina. Among all the instances of rascality that the war has developed, nothing has exceeded the proceedings of one C. H. Foster, who, after narrowly escaping popular vengeance in North Carolina, fled to the North, and is now going about that region proclaiming himself a member of Lincoln's Congress, elected by Union men in North Carolina. Had, this man one spark of decency in his composition, his wife's denunciation, lately published, would scarcely have appeared; but he is doubtless the smallest of all the diminutive souls who have taken advantage of the war to make themselves famous. He is lower than Carlile or Pierpont. Foster is a native Yankee.
The 20th Regiment. --This Regiment, which was commanded by Colonel Pegram at Rich Mountain, and about 600 of which were taken prisoners, is, we learn, to be mustered out of service to-day. The six hundred taken prisoners were discharged upon their parole not to fight against Lincoln's Government until they were exchanged for Lincoln prisoners taken by the Confederate army.

The South acknowledged a belligerent power. --Though the Lincoln Government still refuses to officially accord to the Confederate States their acknowledgment as a belligerent power, various military officers in the Federal service are continually doing so without being reprimanded in the slightest from headquarters at Washington. The Memphis Appeal thus sums up the instances: Hutler, when at Fortress Monroe, exchanged prisoners with Gen. Magruder. Col. Wallace, the abolition commander at Cape Girardeau, has within the past few days exchanged prisoners under a recognized flag of truce with Gen. Pillow, and Commodore Stringham accepted the capitulation of Fort Hatteras under the express stipulation to treat Capt. Barron and his garrison as prisoners of war, and as such award them all the usual courtesies appertaining to belligerents. Such a paltry dodge as this is unworthy even of the gorilla-concern over which Abe Lincoln presides.
Concessions of weakness. --The indiscriminate arrests made by Lincoln, of men and women, are so many confessions of weakness. Some of the arrests are made — that of Mr. Faulkner, for example — simply to have an offset against the Confederates, for the security of the Abolitionist Ely. Other arrests — that of Mr. Johnston, for instance — because he happens to be a nephew of Gen. Johnston, of the Confederate army. It is supposed that near relationship will make Gen. Johnston feel, even when the military arm of Lincoln cannot reach himself. Others are arrested in order to extort money; the object being confiscation. The arrest of women is surely the last confession of weakness. Miss Maria J. Windle got a slender living by, writing letters from Washington for the Southern press. She is a clever woman, smart and showy, and her sympathies, it seems, are with the South. For this she is arrested. Mrs. Philip Philips is the talented and lovely wife of Colonel Philips, formerly

Cooke, who has been for some time in Utah, ia source of joy to us all, what a picture does this narrative present of the thievish and murderous propensities of those monsters in human form, who are fighting Lincoln's battles. What a Spanish General saw in the Federal Army. General Lana, the Spanish officer mentioned in Mr. Russell's last letter as on a visit to Was
