14th, 180 J. DuAn Herald: Th present week has has been ono of unusual excitement in ibis On Sunday last the first definite new of tka gr at fleet was received. Every face beamed with satisfaction and joy that South Carolina, the first to so had been the first to foel the strength of tho government. The advantnge gain ml hv onf force is immense. Beaufort harbor is one of "the best on tho Atlautio coast, and comnionication with the into ripr is comparatively easy.

The rail road iorlf of the rebel" whieh thcy wcre Sd to troups from point to Mtinmi, gl.Cftt faciiity broken up. are afloat, as usual, ptoboble and improbable. iA The brigade under command of Gen. ttlenker, all Germans, gave General Mc Clellan a serenade and display of fireworks on Monday evening last. It was indeed a splendid affair.

The entire force was supplied with torches which burned with different colors, and blending into each other, the effect was pleasing and novel. One pieco of fire work attracted especial attention. It was ui.

Speeches wore made by See's Cameron and Seward and General Blcnknr; after which ttie brigade marched to their quarters on the Virginia side of tue river. The news of the success under General Kelson in Kentucky gives universal gratification. Our horizon is brightening rapidly, and erelong ijt be bopciA wo will be in the bright sunlight of victoiy and Wo rt bocoming conscious of a fact that has been almost entirely ignored, and thaf ls, wa1 have tnent that can. tcirt assert" its proper authority; government which is at the tame time the most liberal and the most powerful. Tho more we realize this fact tli a belter we are off.

We will come out of this conflict purified, and will proclaim to tho nations of the cartTi that liberty yet has a home that sho is enshrined in tho hearts of the people, and will ever bud and blossom and bear fruit of peacv and pleuty. We will yet show that liberty, dressed in azure and wearing a crown of stars, shall dwoll and rule amongst the people of this land, and that Cotton is no longer May the day tjooft come when wo shall again purine the aits of peace undisturbed by the hideous presence of a traitor.

Editor of Htriild, Hoving a few moments of leisure, I will endeavor to fulfill the promise 1 made you before leaving Huntington. I havo now been in this near two weeks, and fully lealize my most sanguine expectations. Our Medical College is prospering very finely indeed, having splendid class of student! numbering about 150 like Escti lapius, all anxious to store their minds with the knowledge of Medical Science. The Faculty of this College is No. 1.

In fmei)tion with this College we have the advantage of the U. 8. Marine Hospital and a Military Hospital, the latter of which has only of late been established here by the government both of which will add much to our instruction. This is indeed one of the most beauti fnl cities I have ever seen the location, and every thing surrounding it, could make it nothing less than beautiful. The creat business advantages and resources keep the city in constant bustle, and I hear it stated that thero is more business done in the city of Cleveland, at present than at any time heretofore.

Money is plenty, and nothing looks discouraging. So far as military and war matters are concerned, the people of Cleveland have Jonu their fnll duty. Besides what are already in active service, there are here in Camp Wade, awaiting orders, one fnll regiment of Cavalry and one Battory of Artillery. On last Saturday evening thero was a grand rally and jollification meeting at Melodeon Hall, over the ucw great Naval JSxpedition. and to warm up the war spirit.

Patriotic wore mae by Dave Tod, Govepoi elect, Kflbiaon, Griswold, pivkman, Ripley, and others. I WM ver7 interesting find 'refresfylpg t'nne the speech bejng very entertaining, as be had juat returned from Wiui.in. where ho jiad a good opportunity to feel Ujq na. fional pulse," anJAOte the signs in tho a io i 0 JjJ WD1 1 www.

Most of the time was taken up in the investigation of tho conduct of thoso traitors arrested in Marion county, as well as that of some of the Knights" in this place. Thcy were all finally released from want of sufficient evidence. It is the opinion of the public, however, that it was money that savod them from a traitor's doom, and that they are as base a set of trnitors as can be found in the rebel confederacy. We have in this place, as thoro are in all oilier places, those cronking, howling, fault finding politicians, who rejoice at all tcmpoiary defeats of our army, and the reverse at our success.

We one and all acknowledge tlioo tokens of affection as originating in the hearts of true and loyal people, and their aeU can but aroime a eonva ponding vibration of wntiuiciit that flows spon taneously from the hrnrt of every soldier who flrnrxd in those gifts.

The Indies, and all con cerned, in so nobly discharging an act of such magnanimity nnd gratitude will ever retain an ii i tying remembrance in the henrts of those who. from your midst, linn gone forth to fight the battles of a common country. And limy wo all be strengthened in our jmJertn'rfing by the noble msnifostions of those who have such exulted regard for our future welfare. Believe me that while tho distribution of those mementoes of love nnd rcgiu was beinjr made nmnng the boys, tearaof gratitude were teen to course their way down the of n.any brave men. Our thoughts would fly back oti the wings of time to the loved ones at home a devoted wife and child, or nn nff ctionato father and mnth'T, brother nnd sister, who deeply feci the absence of thoje nesr and di or to the heart of kindred blood.

I desire further to say that the young men whocomposc a large ortiou of tho volunters from the region of the Salomon have the most exalted opinion of those young Lidies, nj well ns others, engaged in this noble act of charity, and I must say on their behalf, aswoll my own, that thev will CTlluntlv de fend that confidence whieh has been placed in them. In conclusion, I beg leave to cull your atten tion to the solemn fate of wnr. What the re sult of this campaign may be, none can tell but this is sure, wo cannot reasonably expect that all will pass through the ordeal of battle without some one becoming the victim of death, while others, with mutilated bodies and limbs, will realize death as a comfort amf a balm. Prepare yourselves, then, fur such results as may be iu the future, for none know who the fortunate or unfortunate may be. Our duty ciills us to action, where death awaits its victim, while honor forbids us filter or ivcoil from duty or danger, though we fnll in tho attempt to redeem our land from the polluted hands of traitors.

Our prayers nrj Unit we may all live to return to the cnihnicc of those whose hearts ore entwined by affection and lore, and whose embrace we feel ns sanctified by vows on the altar of Ilea veil there to remain in penco in the society of those so much loved.

When traitors flung their banners forth. And to the world did cry, We'll rule the South, we'll rule the North, We'll rule them both or dio Then see old Indiana, How nobly she arose, To save our glorious Union, And trample on her fos. The Hoosier boys have risen up, And loudly now do call. Oh 1 lead us to the battle field, To conquer or to fall. When Gov.

Morton called them out, They came enough and more, And not the last nniong them, W'ns the gnllnnt Thirty Four. Our Headington will never bring, Disgrue ujon his land, But. he will nght until he dies. With Lhc noble. Hoosier band.

And when upon the brittle field. Col. Steele shall give command, The Southern traitors then will know, What the Hoosier boys can stand. Cunt. Swaim wull meet them on the field, And show them that wr fear No Southerner when they fight The Hoosier Volunteer.

The New York rest's Washington correspondent writes: A prominent citiaen of New York had an interview with Mr. Seward a day or two since, when the qnostion ol compro mise came up hou Mr.

'Be anso 1 am willing to trust my reputation with the was the reply. '1 would like to moke this conversation public, lor th sake of some of my Iriends as well as said the citizen, and the Secretary replied that be 'had no This eonver ation accords with other statements respecting Gen.

Fremont's removal. Mr. Seward wus one of the fast friends of Fremont in the Cabinet. tW The secession press is alarmed, and lets out wholosomo truths, Tho Ilaleigh (N. Standard says that unless the movement (of our naval expedition) is stopped at once by the strong ai of the Confederate States, more than half the counties of this state will be attached to the black republican government before union Congress meets.

It seems too that the public officers in North Crrolina are as ready to secede from secession as the people, for the same paper says, 'it is very evident that the State authorities will never make a move in that direction, owing to the reason that they are in the same boat with the A Bad Tiiheat. The rebels, it appears, hold Col. Corcoran and other officers as hostages for the good behavior of our courts. If we in the regular exercise of tho judicial authority of the nation, condemn any of their pirate to death, they will execute our officers as a retaliation This is a mere threat; but if they should be wicked enough to hang Col. Corcotan, let us say to them that there are Irishmen en enough in New York city alone, able and disposed to leave nothing of Charles ton but the turtkey buzzards.

Jas Brown, arrested as a secessionist iu Bos ton a few days since. Mr. Yancey speaks very discouragihgly of the prospects of either England oi franco recognizing the indepc lence of the buulhern Lo meter acy. tW Mr. Mason's return to Boston as a State prisouer will revive recollections qf t)is declaration when last in that city that he did not expect to return thither until he should come in an official capac ity as tho representative of a Southern Confederacy.

Jim Lane at Springfield. Another Speech on lhc Slavery actltn." He Defines His Position, and that of the Kansas Brigade, on the War and Slavery. SpRiNariBLD Mo Nov. 8, 1861. Editort JUiiiotiri Democrat: About nine o'clock Thursday evening, tho 24th Indiana tinder the command of Lieutenant Colonel Oarvin, appeared at the headquarters of General Lann, and tbefeiiiiental band discoursed tho best knartial and other nmsic.

Mo of the Kana Brigade gathered around the Indiana legiment, and joined with them in calls fur Lane General Lane! Jim Lane, the Liberator On these names and titles the changes were rung for a lew minn es, when the General appeared in plain citizen's dress, in front of his quarters. Again the welkin refunded with cheers and huzr.as, as the sound of some two thon and or more voices wss borne off on the breoze. The General responded as follows: Gentlemen and Fellow Citizens: The reception of this compliment was as far from my expectations as from my deserts. I am aware thnso demonstrations are not inten led ao mnch for me as lor the Kansas brigade; yet I should be the first to appreciate and acknowledge any honors which may hare come from tho noble State of Indiana. Can I forget Indiana? Never! Cheers.

'If I torget thee let my right hand forget her It was the place of my birth, and in the place of my mother's grave Indiana has given me legislative, exe tivo, milituiy and congressional honors. She has nursed mo as a fond mother brings np. her child; and lot my heart grow cold, and my tongue cleave to the roof of ray mon wiien I cease to be grateful, or fail to speak well of my bene Loud cheers But th home of my adoption and toils and strife is Kan.as. She was prairie waste when first 1 set foot on hor soil, but through ilo perate odds she has fought her way up into the sisteth'iiid of States, and already her little army has become famous throughout the nation for its bravery and patnotism. For Kansas 1 have wre tl il as wrestles the mother when she brings forth her first born into the world.

Thundering cheers. Indiana as a part of the pa is enshrined in my heart. Kan as, as tny home, and as the living Dlefent. absorbs mv 'thonehts and hwivs my destiny. Unce I obeyed the voice of Indiana, and honored her; now 1 go at the biuUl.n,' ot Kansas, and love her Loud clioering But genilomcn, I am prou I and happy to sen the two sNters of our glorious Lit ion striking lunds wiih ea.

li other on tho oil of re ellious Mia mi, (leieriiiincd that our United blows hull uh out this most causeless and wicked rebellion, and preserve the National heritage left us by our fathers. Gentlemen: I shall not con eal lh fact in ono respect 1 dill'er from some of my compeers in comtu ind as to the mode ol war. are which is best calculated to bring this wretched contest to a speedy, du rable and honorable close. Tho point of dillereiice relers ot course, to slavery the cause of all dilferetice refers of course, to Slave. the cause of all the l'andora a box from which has issued all our ia'ionl troubles.

My cieea is let Sluvery take care of itielf. If it can sur vive the shock of war, let it live, but if etwe ao upper and netliT millstone it le ground to powder and the winds drive aw.iy it is not for me to gather up the dust aain. 1 do not pniimi to make war upon Slavery, but upon reliels. and the meantime to let slaves and slavery ake care of themselves. An oligarchy more cruel and pioscnptivo than ever omged and cur cd a nation, ancient or modei ii, has brough: on this war for Slavery, and il we are required to protect le end, or in any way help Slavery, then we are requited to co operate with the en emy.

to help mm, to netcm! him. an 1 to wmk the ame end. Can we place our selves thus in alliance with our deadly and barbarous lo'8, and at the same time conquer them, subdue them, crush them? When lesser contiadi. tions are reconciled, we will think, of harmonizing this. War at best, is a terrible calamity to a nation.

In all the country thrtingh which we have pa sed, the mails are stopped. schools are suspended, churches are torn ed into hospitals for the sick and wonn led, and general demoralization prevails. Protract the war one year and deaola tion, moral and material alooe wonld mark the track of armies. Justice, hn manity an mercy require that the con ilict should teiminato as soon as possible, and with the least practical shedding blood. Astounding as may appear tq yoq gen tlemen from Indiana, yet it is a fact we have repeatedly demonstrated, that heav ler blow is dear ont to the realm ol re cessia in th abduction or freedom of slave than the killing of a soldier in arms, Yes.

and I may put the troth in a stronuer Ittcht still. Abduct from tho same tarn il aslftve, and kill in arms a son and the loss oi the slave will be regaid as the greater misfortune the calamity for which there is no healing balm. 1 con id brin up niq ethan atiiooi and witness whoe observation and experience qualify them to speak of the trnthml of mv remarks. Il then by allowing the slave to fall into the wake of the army and find the prjceiess boon of freedom, we avoid bloodshed, save property from destruction, and strike death dealing blows upon the head and front of this rebellion, does not every consideratiqn that Rood and just require that this policy be adopted? This war is for slavery let as make it the mighty enirine lor Slavery's destruction, nnd the rebels will soon cry I bey will see like Saturn the fable.they are 'rating their own chil dren, and will eonseut tq ent abort tfc ir Every guarantee that is gi ven tq Kaveiy by the Government strengthens the rebela in their course. a Ths Kansas brigado has met tbi ene my in battle and routed him in every conflict.

We have destroyed Osceola, a sort of a half town and half military post; but all these things combined have not bro't the reliels to their knees as have the escaping a few hundred slaves, by tho following the back track of the army. Cheers. Gentlemen, my Ionic teaches that we cannot delend and make war upon tho same lime, and if it is the purpose of the Government to crush the rebels and prevent their slaves from stampeding, two armies should be sent In the field. An advance force might called the treason crushing army, and should he armed with offensive w. apons.

The otlv er should be called the slavery restoring army, and should move about ten mils in the rear. It should be clad in a defensive armor of triplo steel, for such is the meanness of spirit which ia bred in the hearts of men by slave breeding, slave trading and slave holding, that the masters would creep into every plsce of ambush and fire upon those who are gathering up and returning their fugitive hu man property. It would be illegitimate lor the Slavery restoring army to retnrn be fare, as they might barm some of the pets' and darlings for whom they are so generously acting. lnercforegive thm tho defensive aruis but no offensive weapons. Such an arrangement, novel as it mixht seem, most bo had il slavery is to be preserved in the rear of an army, which moves with a lorce stiflicient to cruh this huge rebel ion.

In my opinion the second should be as numerous as the Preserving Slavery will cost the government ten times as mnch as crushing the rebellion. Voices 1 fiat so. Tho policy inaugurated by tho KatUas Brigado, which I have the honor to com mand, was not adopted in a moment, but toe result of much oxienence. Jn a speech recently made in the city of av euworth, my feelings of indignation became wrought np to smh a pilch, that I as betrayed into the nse ol language, which was jusily condemned by the re ligious sentiment ol the country, anl which in cuolor moments meet my earn ot disapproval. But whethor excited or calm, whether my language be rough or smooth, principle and duty require that nr policy bo rightly ad tered to nnd I condemned by the Government; and if should be condemed, if the Govern ment demand of the Brigade obeisance to the behests of lavery, 1 shall consid er the question of withdrawing Irora the field.

Since the rebels havo failed to nation alize Slavery, (heir U'tle cry is 'Down villi the Let slavery lilt up its crest hi the air, and hero 1 solemuly vow, that if Jim Lane is compelled to a Id a no to such an infernal chorus, he breaks his sword and quits tho Held.

In steadiness of purpose and courage each soldier will be Spartan hero. The spirit of the C'ru. a ler will be united with the iron will of tho Roman, and an army of such soldiers is invincible. fUheeis. I Iheo things you, ludianians, may appear strange; bni when your military lu.

anon has received that peculiar cat which experi ence is sure to give it, and which now porta ins to the Kansas soldier, then will wo march shoulder to shoulder, an I victoriously, too, against the enslavers. and bi alizers of men, and aga.nat the traitors to the best government on earth. Soldiers we have a commander on whose courage, skill and kindiies of heart wit may always conhdo. General Hunter has a Kansas education; has suffered with us because ol Slavory, and he will, I know, indorse the policy I have advocated to night. It should bo tho business of Congress.

at its couiine session, to adopt a law di roi ling the President of the United States by proclamation, to order the rei el States within thirty or sixty days, to lay down their arms and return to their allegiance, or, in default thereof, declare every slave free throughout their domains. So far as I am concerned, I hope the Almighty will no direct the hearts of the rebels that like Pharaoh, they will persist in their crime and then we will invade them, and strike the shackles from every limb, Provision, too, should be made for settling' the African in Hayti, Central or South America, and let the race form nation by itself. Liberia has has served a glorious pnrpo in tea hing the world that these oppressed and wretched people are capable of supporting themselves and, of self government. I look upon the re public of Liberia as the bnd yes, the full blown hope of the whole of Africa. and wish it every encouragement and success.

Let ns dare to do right, trust ing to ths principle, that right makea might; and the gteat republic, once the wonder of the world, will ewfcrga from these troubles purer, wealthier and stronger than over. Those are among among the reasons why freedom to all should be the watchword of the Kansas Brigade, and would to God I could publish it throughout the army, and to thtt whole nation. Let the wind waft it over the prairie of the West. Let the thunder of our cannon speak it in the ear of traitor tyrants. Let the mountains of Pennsylvania, Virginia and New England echo it to all their people; let the sound swell from earth to heaven, and the Great God of angels and men, as its patron aud Iriend, will givo it success.

Again I thank you, friends of Indiana ami of the Knaa Brigade, for the compliment of this occasion. 1 bid you all hearty good night. Cheer after cheer then rent the air. The Kansas boys then left for their tents, evidently a Utile proud of their unman der, and the Indianians were not in the least inclined to relinquish their birthright interest in the earnest and eloquent advocate of liberty, Jim Lane. in The Seal Oreatneaa of the Arnin lean I'alon.

Prom the London News The whole history of great States, whether monarchical or republican, in all ages ami ia all climes, has been one of alternative engrafting and pplinterlngs from the central stock. Territorial expansions and contractions have been by turns the destiny of nearly every European State of the first order, since the days of Charlemange. It has been preeminently no of France, whose confines seldom remained for half a century unchanged; yet when has the bitterest enemy of that great country ventured to talk of her political existence as a thing that has passed away? Every true statesman and historian understands that the vitality of a great State consists not in the casual extent of its acreage, or the fluctuating number of its people, but in the moral vigor which loyalty to its institutions, and ho mogenity of feeling, habits and purpose, give, and no accidents of riood or field can take away. Were the Southern States finally parted from the Union, the I nion would still be the greatest Iree country, with the exception of our own, that the world has ever seen. It would still possess elements within itself of opulence and power vaster by far than any European State can boast; it Would still be invincible by foreign arms and unshackled in the pursuit of industry, knowledge, adventure, and improvement by domestic bonds, whether of creed or caste; it would till possess the priceless treasure a matured literature and juris udence, and while it retains all its freshness and energy of national outh it would still be a voluntary combination of self ruling States would still be the home of the free Wo very cordially sympathize in the old anil eloquent language ol Vice Chancellor Pago Wool upon this subject, and we seriously commend is wise and mighty words of polit ical reproof to the shallow pated orators and writers who think it ne to sneer at the mischances and losses of a free community, involved against their will in a sanguinary INo purity of motive or polit ical wisdom can elfectually insure a.

Our duty as a nation of kinsmen, oi friends, and of neighbors is very plain Our sympathies and prayers ought to be for those and those alone who tand on the defensive in this la mentable quarrel, for theirs is the cause of law, order and right. We too, are likely to be heavy suffer ers by reason of the conflict; but, as Lord de Grey has recently well said, when addressing a public assembly in Yorkshire.

But we shall not be surprised if the British thoritics either refuse altogether to notice the case, or treat it in, such a way as to express their friendly feelings towards our government. Our belief is that the existing administration is somewhat ashamed of its premature recogni tion oi the rebels as belligerents; that it has found out its mistake in underrating the power of the Union, and that it will gladly aval itnelfof any circumstances which will give it an opportunity of setting itself right before our government, N.Y.Post, Tnr Heart and tiis Tongue.
