eath he has been known as "Colonel Orton." The Federal account represents him as a cousin of Gen. Lee, commanding the Confederate army on the Rappahannock. He was, also, we understand, a relative of Captain Wickham, at present of this post. The horse which he is said to have presented to the Federal Colonel Watkins was a fine black stud, which formerly belonged to Capt. Wickham, and well known to the citizens of Chattanooga. Col. Orton was recently married to Mrs. Lamb, formerly a Miss Hamilton, of Charleston, who accompanied her husband to the army a short time since. Col. Orton, by those who knew him well, was known to be brave to rashness. His courage was not tempered with prudence, or any regard whatever for consequences. He was not sent on the expedition which resulted in the loss of two brave men and useful officers, and his brother officers of our army were not even aware of his intentions.

Winfield Scott. From this confidence and respect shown him by so distinguished a man may be judged his education and accomplishments. He was a first cousin of Gen. Lee, commanding the Confederate army on the Rappahannock. Soon after the war began he was frank enough to inform General Scott that all his sympathies were with the of Capt. Williams: Every reader who knows anything about our army will remember Captain Lawrence Orton Williams. He was at first and Aide-de-camp to Gen. Robert E. Lee; then Aid to Gen. Polk, then Captain of Artillery, under the same General, at Columbus, Ky.; then Chief of Artillery, on Gen. Bragg's staff, and subsequentlsition in the Federal army.

Rosecrans, at Franklin, Tenn., on the 8th instant. They entered the Federal lines dressed in Federal uniforms, with their Confederate caps covered with white flannel hcter, sent a message for them to return, as he wished some further conversation with them. This they politely consented to do, and were thus made prisoners. Gen. Rosecrans was then telegraphed, and replied that there were no such officers in his army. From a letter written by the Surgeon of the 85th Indiana to the Nashville Preon their persons.--Lieut. Peter was found to have on a rebel cap, secreted by the white flannel havelock. Col. Baird immediately telegraphed the facts to Gen. Rosecrans, and asked what he should do, and in a short time received an order "to try them by a drum-head Court Martial, and if found guilty hang them immediately." The

In one of these messages, about a month ago, he offered $5,000 if 100 of the best men of Patterson's regiment would come out and fight him and 100 of his men on open ground. Col. Patterson refused to allow this braggadocio to be noticed; but Lieut. May offered to come out with eighty men and most him and his hundred and clean him out, just Col. Patterson refused to allow this braggadocio to be noticed; but Lieut. May offered to come out with eighty men and most him and his hundred and clean him out, just for the fun of the thing — Brownlow didn't accept, and ever since then May has been trying to catch Brownlow, and Brownlow to catch May. May very nearly succeeded one day. He got on Brownlow's trail, and came up with him, their parties being about equal in number. After a brief carbonic and pistolonic interchange, Brownlow and his men fled, and May and his party pursued. May took individually after Brownlow, but the latter had too fleet a horse, he, however, left his cap and telescope on the r

he land. Has it come to this, that you will deny in the free city of Chicago the right of a citizen to discuss the acts of the President? [Cries of "We won't allow it," and "None but Copperheads do that, and we will stop them."] Is there a man in this audience who has not expressed to day his dissatistation with some act of the President? [Cries of "Yes," "Yes," "We have none of us expressed any dissatisfaction."] Ah, do all of you, then, think that the President's revocation of General Burnside's order suppressing the Chicago Times was right? [Cries of "No, no. " "It was wrong." "He ought to have enforced the order."] Then you all deserve to be taken in hand by the military power and sent beyond the lines. You will be much stronger with the law on your side. Show that Mr. Storey has counselled resistance in the draft or encouraged desertion. These are penitentiary offences. Then arrest him and take him before the courts. Where would you get your mob to rescue him? Why,

The war. Execution of two Confederate officers at spies trial by drum head Court martial — the Coolness with which they meet their death. We have published a brief notice of the execution of Captain Lawrence Williams and Lieutenant W. G. Peter, of General Bragg's army, by the order of Gen. Rosecrans, at Franklin, Tenn., on the 8th instant. They entered the Federal lines dressed in Federal uniforms, with their Confederate caps covered with white flannel havelocks. Captain Williams represented himself to be Colonel Austin, U. S. A., and Lieutenant Peter assumed the character of Major Dunlop, both representing themselves as Inspectors General."They deceived Col. Baird, the commandant of the post, and had gotten three miles on their way to Nashville, when he, suspecting their character, sent a message for them to return, as he wished some further conversation with them. This they politely consented to do, and were thus made prisoners. Gen. Rosecrans was then telegraphed, and

hese men was to plan our destruction, and that even they recognized their punishment just, according to the accepted rules of war among all nations, still, to see them suffer such a penalty, has filled our garrison with sadness. The Chattanooga (Tenn.) Rebel has the following relative to the history of Capt. Williams: Every reader who knows anything about our army will remember Captain Lawrence Orton Williams. He was at first and Aide-de-camp to Gen. Robert E. Lee; then Aid to Gen. Polk, then Captain of Artillery, under the same General, at Columbus, Ky.; then Chief of Artillery, on Gen. Bragg's staff, and subsequently commander of that General's "Body Guard," and was finally made Colonel of Cavalry, which position in our service he honorably filled up to the time of his tragic end. He dropped the "Williams" of his name because, as we understand, another member of his family of that name continued to hold a position in the Federal army. For the last four months preceding

s a member of the regular army, with the rank of Captain of cavalry, when the rebellion broke out, and at that time was Aid de-Camp and private secretary to Gen. Winfield Scott. From this confidence and respect shown him by so distinguished a man may be judged his education and accomplishments. He was a first cousin of Gen. Lee, commanding the Confederate army on the Rappahannock. Soon after the war began he was frank enough to inform General Scott that all his sympathies were with the South, as his friends and interests were there, and that he could not fight against them. As he was privy to all of Gen. Scott's plans for the campaign it was not thought Gen. Scott's plans for the campaign it was not thought proper to turn him loose, hence he was sent to Governor's Island, where he remained three months. After the first Ball Run battle he was allowed to go South, where he joined the Confederate army, and his subsequent history I have not been able to learn much about. He was a while on Gen. Bragg's staff as Chief of Artillery, but a

t to the Grand Jury yourself. It is your duty. Brownlow's son. A letter from Shelbyville, Tenn., in the Mobile Advertiser, says: The most daring and dashing of the cavalry leaders on the Yankee side in Middle Tennessee is Colonel Brownlow, son of the notorious and infamous old Parson Brownlow, of Knoxville. He is young, rather handsome, a great dandy and lady's man, and; like his father, a gas-pipe or blow hard of the most terrific description. His Lieutenant-Colonel is Andy Johnson's son--two nice young men for a small tea-party, truly! Though commanding a regiment, Brownlow is nearly always out at the head of small scouting parties, trying to ambuscade our boys, and leaving saucy messages in writing for them at houses on the neutral ground. In one of these messages, about a month ago, he offered $5,000 if 100 of the best men of Patterson's regiment would come out and fight him and 100 of his men on open ground. Col. Patterson refused to allow this braggadocio to
