Geo.

Fortunately, we think, for the prosperity of the district, tlie order of removal was immediately reconsidered, and General Meredith retained in wmnund, to the relief of the people and chagrin of the Gneral'a enemies. Politically, and in erery other vfcsw, the (Corral iethe rfght man In the right place, and bis re mors! would be a public calamity.

Several a eeka since the citizens of Cairo aad Padncah purchased an elegant sword and equipment to present t tlx; (lenaral as a testimony of their esteem. The value of this tetiuionial waa over $1300. Through juadvertanoo the presentation waa delayed until Monday but, wltcu Judge Husbands presented tlie sword to tlie General.

The crCzvns of Cairo entertain the highest reifK-rt for Gen. Meredith. Ifis rule while here was i hararlr-fizrd by the strictest honesty and justice, and effected great good to the Union came.

Urn. ti. .Meredith. of In pnTnuance of a brief notiee a very large and en thuaiastie meetiog of the loyal citizens of Padueah as vmbled in Market square, in tbe afternoon of Satur day, February 25, 1H45, to expn-sa the gratification of the community upon tlie reinstatement of Oeu. i. Meredith in tlie oocamaud of the Iistrk-t of Western Kentucky. At tbJ u;geiitioo of Mr. P. D. Veieer, Albert Ilradahaw, aq was called to the chair, and F. Murray waa appoinU-d Secretary. The object of the meeting having been atatcd by the Chairman, a committee, consisting of J. II. Husbands, Judge Smedley, Jatnea X. Readies, and W7 A. Dell, was selected to prepare resolutinna ezpreasire of the public feeling. During the retirement of the committee Dr. J. E. Mackentle ckvpicntly recited the services of Gen. Meredith in suppressing the rebellion j described the e!tct of his policy in reclaiming this district to the support of the Government ; denounced in strong and fitting language the fuw Bialignanta in the community, miscalling themselres I'nion men, who are determined to be satisfied frith nothing that does not promote their. own miserable aolfiahnrss, aad concluded 1y heartily commending every act of the General's administration to the applause of all true lovers of justice and tlie country. At the conclnainn of this stirring address, which waa receired with signal marks ef favor, the committee re-appeared ; and, through their Chairman, Col. J. B.' ITuhnnls, reported the following resolutions: 1 H Jcrd, That whereas, on yeeterday our community waanverwhelmed wrth j(lmus at the announcement "of the removal of our commander, lien. 8. Meredith, we are, to-day, in the full tide of rejoicing because of his restoration to ns, and aa a testimonial to the world, we now declare that he is one of the noblest of men : ar.d that 4he masterly manner in wihch he Jias discharged tho onerous duties derolred npon him, his sincerity ef furjMiHe and derotion to his country, his agency In quieting the excitement in bis district, and bringing the great body of the people to the loyal support ef the Government, meet our highest regard and approbation. 2 K'irrd, That we are satisfied that the opposi tion te Oun. Mcredi'h originated with irresponsible meu, who. finding they coiuld not use him, sought hie removal from command, in the hope to eubserve their aeltisli Interesla, and without regard to tbe public good. 3 Jlraomf, That a lare inaioritv of the original fnion men of tha community, of tlie bnsinpss meu. and of the responsible. law-abiding; and honeat sup porters of the liorernment, thronirhoat this District, snlcntly desire toe permancflt rctenboa or Uea. Mereuitn. . Forcible and interesting speeches were made by Col. Husbands and P. D. Yeiser, Esq., ia advocacy of these resolutions, whieh, upon being submitted to 1 rote, were adopted by acclamation. An additional rosso! ution was passed directing the Secretary to communicate the foregoing proceedings ! to the newspapers of Padacah, Cairo and Leuiaville, j with a renacst that they be. inserted in the same, and (hen the meeting dispersed. .

Tha enlist inert of rebel prisoners into our military sen ice s a reckless trilling with the rviblie danger, and with tbe work of recruiting. and with the character of the army. These men enlist undcrduress, to escape imprison ment or return tcthe rebel amy. No reliance can be placed on tuck , moo. None bat the worst rebel prisoers will enlist and thereby matte themselvanliable to be shot by the rebels if captured. If Jiese men are fit to be enlisted they are fit to I first set free.and given to en list voluntarily. If they would not do it if they .had ho option, ley do it fraudulently to es cape their preset viabilities, and will remain. only long nova to desert.

Tb-ey kept up aa unusually bold front, at times completely swarming Ceraetry II ill with men, and frequently opening. Jipou our troops with cannon, which was promptly replied to. It waa believed they were endeavoring to hide the evacuation of Petersburg, from whith si I the people have been ordered away, far tbe purpose of faMirig hack to their new line of works on the north side of the Appotomax River, with the right resting on tha Lynchburg liailroad. A number of men of tha 30th Wisconsin were killed and crushed by the Calling trees during the storm cf Thursday olgtit . A heavy explosion took place on Thursday, which shook the boats on .the Jaijics and Appotomsx Rivers. It appeared to bo in the direction of Petersburg, and it v&s reported at City Point that in was occasioned by an attempt of the rebels to blow up Fort Hill, which had beau previously evacuated by our troops, k nowing tlie rebels bad undermined it. FLAG PRESENTATION. Washington, Eriday, March 17 ISG5. A rebel flag, captured at Anderson, by the 1 10th Indiana Volunteers, was presented today, to Governor Morton, in front of the National Hotel. A Urge crowd was in attendance. Governor Morton made a brief speech, in which he congratulated hie auditors on the speedy end of the rebellion, and concluded -by introducing President Lincoln, whoso purity and patriotism were confessed, he said, by all, even among tha most agitators. Apphtuse.Q His aJmini.strotion would be recognized ss the most important epoch of history. It bad struck tho blow to slavery f appliinel and built up tbe Republic with a power it never before possessed. If he had done nothing more than put his name to the Emancipation Proclamation, that atone would have mtJe.his namo immortal. Applauso.J Tbe President's Speech. The President addressed the assembly substantially as follows: yellow-Ciliiens : It will be but a very few words that I shall undertake to ssy. I was born in Kentueky, raised in Indiana, and lived in Illinois. Laughter. And now I am here, where it is my business to care equally for the good people of all the States. I am glad to see an Indiana regiment on this day able to present the captured Cg to the Governor of Indiana. Applause. Iam not disposed in ssying this to make a distinction between the States, for all kawe done equally as well. Applause. There are but few views of the aspects of this great war upon which I have not 6aid or written something whereby ray own opinion might be known. But there is ono the recent attempt of our erring breathren, as they aro sometimes called laughter to employ tho negro to fight for them. I have neither written nor made a speech on that subject, because that was their busiaess not mine, and if 1 had a wish upon the subject, I had not the power to introduce it or make it effective. The gteat question with them was whether tho negro be ing put into the army will fight for them. 1 do not know, and therefore cannot decide. laughter, They ought to know better than we. 1 have in my lifetime heard many arguments why the negroes ought to be slaves; but if they fight for those who'' would keep them m slavery, it will be abetter argument than any I have yet heard. Laughter and Applause. He who will fiiht for that ought to bo a Blare. Applause. They have concluded at last to take ono out of four of the slaves, and put them in the army; and that one out of the four who will fight to keep the others in slavery ought to be a slave himself, unless ho is kitted in a fight. Applause While I have often said that all man ought to be free, yet 1 would allow those colored per sons to be slaves who want to be; and next to them those white persons who argue ia faeor of making other people alaves. Applause. I aro in favor of giving an opportunity to such white men to try it oa for themselves. Applause. I will say one thing in regard to the negro being employed to fight for them. I do know he cannot fight aad stay at home and make bread too. Laughter and applause. I am rather in favor of allowing them to try them as soldiers. Applause They lack one vote of doing that, and I wish I could send my vote over the river so that I might cast it in favor of allowing the negro to fight. Applause. But they cannot fight and work both. We must now see the bottom of the enejjy'a resources. They will standout as long as they can; and if the negro will fight for them they must aUow him to fight. They have drawn upon tkeir last branch of resources applause and we can now eee the bottom. Applause. I am grad t eee the end aa near at hand.' f Applause. 1 I hare said now more than I intended, and will, therefore, bid you good by. ' The President Ihea retired, while the crowd below saluted him with loud and hearty cheers, and the band played a lirely tune. . Got. Morton then steped forward and re narked that they had now seen tbe rebel rag-, and he proposed that each one in favor of the perpetuity ef this great Union take off his hat and give three cheers lor the Union flag. The request was responded to with a hearty good "will. Three hearty cheers were given for President Lincoln, with three more for Governor Morton, aftet which the band struck up Tankee Doodle. ' ' Oxs New England editor ately asked another if he conki tell the cost of brim stone, and the replr was: It-costs nothing where you are gtung."

New, Yokk, March 10. A letter from Texas says, two thousand negroes captured at Berwick's Bay 'were rnostly taken to Houston, and sold at auction by Col. Snyder, he knowing tucy had been legallj' emancipated by the United States, and were only liable to be treated as prisoners of war. Advices from the Army of the Potomac in dicate an early movement there, but which side is expected to assume the offensive is not cer tain. The rebels were very active, rocrching, countermarching and massing, seemic':ly for the purpose of mystifying. Reports from Richmond represent that every man and boy capable of iiso!Iing a gun is ia the trenches. Ru mors of Atha probable evacuation of Rich mond and Petersburg are reiterated, but these aie apparently no more reliable than reports we have heretofore had on the same subject. ..ST-The high wind on the 17th, tore up and badly damaged tlie tinned roofing of the State House' and Evans'a oil miK, at Indianapolis.

What ia the ffiae of Chief-Justice, if it has been used to betray human rights ? The crime is great, aceovtiuc; to the position of the criminal. If you were aked, sir, to metitioa tiie iooulent cf our history previous to the rebellion, wliieh was in a'l respects worUiy of condemnation, most calculated to caaae the blush of Rhame. an-1 niost'lotdlv in its conaalueAaos, I do not duubt that row would say the IrJ cott decision, and especialfr the wicked opinion of the Chief-Justiceon that occasion. I sr this with pais. .I do not seek this debate. But when a proposition ia made to tumor the author of this nickedness with a commemorative bust, at the" expense of the country, am obliged to speak pbwnlr. I am not awara that the Cturlish judges who decided contrary to liberty in the case of ship-money, and thus sustained tbe King in tliose pretensions "which endot ia civil war, hare erer been commemorated in marble. I am aot aware that Jeffreys, Chief Justice and Chancellor of England, famous for his Ulents as for his crimes, has fonnd any niche in Westminister HalL No, air. Ther hare been left to tlie judgement of history, aod there"! insist that Taney shall be left . r i companionship, iacb was the tool of unjust power. Hut the Power which Taney serrej was none oiaer I nan Uie Klave rower which has in volved the oounirr in mr. I sjpeak what cannot be denied, wtieu 1 dacUre the opinion of the Chief-Justice in the case of Iresd Scott, was more abominable than anything of the kind m ue nisiory or uourts. Judicial- baseness readied its lowest point on that occasion. You hare not for(rnMea that terrible decision, wlierea most niirightcons ju-lifeawent was sustained by a falsification of history. Of coiu-fie the Constitution of the L'nited StaU s and every principle of liberty was falsified, but historical troth was falsified also. I hare here the authentic reJjnrt of the case, from which it aboears Uiat the ChiefJustice, whUe enforcing his uujnst conclusion which was to blast a whole race, used tlie following lan guage "It is difficult at this day to realiie the state of pub lic opinion in relation to that unfortunate rce. winch prevailed tn the cirilized and enlightened portions of the world at the time of the declaration of lu:tne:denee, and when the Constitution of the L'nited ."states was framed and adopted, liut the public history of erery European nation displays it in a manner too plain to be mistaken. 'They had for more than a century before been re garded as beings of an inferior order, and altogether unni io associate with the white rare, either m social or political relations ; and ao far inferior that they had no rights which the white man is bound to respect, and that the negro might justlv and lawfully be reduce.! tn shivery for bis benefit." 19 Howard's lieports 407. In these words, solemnly and authoritalirely uttered by the Chief Justice of"the United Stales, humanity aad truth were set at naught, and tlie whole country was humbled. "Then you and I and all of u fell down while bloody slavery flourished orer us." I quote his words fully ', so that there can be no mistake. Here, then, is his expressed assertion, that at toe declaration ot Independence tn I7i, and the adoption of the National Constitution in 17S9, in Europe ift well as in our own country, "colored men had no rights which white men were bound to respect." .W, air, this is false atrociously false. It is notorious that there were States of the t'nion wliere. at the adoption of the Constitution, colored persons were free, and even in the enjoyment of the electorial franchise, while in England the Soroersett case had already decided that there could be no distinction of persons cd account of color, and Scotland, Holland and France, had ail declared the same rule. On this point there can be no question. And yet this Chief Justice, whom you propose to honor with a marble bust, had the unblushing effrontery to declare that at that time, as well abroad aa at Lome, "colored men had no rights which white men n bound to respect :" and this he aaid in order to jnstify a wicked interpretation of tbe Constitution. Search the judicial annals and you will find no perversion of truth more flagrant. Sir, it is not fit, it is not decent that eneh a person should be commemorated by a vote of Congress, especially at this time when liberty is at last recognized. If you hare money to appropriate in this way, let it be done ia honor of the defenders of liberty now gathered to their fatliers. There was John tjuincy Adams. Tiiere was also Joshua R. Uiddings. Let their busta be placed in the court room, if you please, where with marble lips thev can plead alwavs for hu "" rigma, ana ktch man rights, and teach, judge and advocate the beanty 'Xr T ? unworthy of a regenerated land; .omething which will be an example for future times : something which win neip tom the standard ot history. 1 know that in the court room there are busts of other Chief Justices. Very well. So in the hall of the doges, at Venice, there are pictures of all who tilled that high omce in unbroken succession, with the exception ot 31anno rauero, who, although as vener ble from years as Taner, was dcenied unworthy of place in that One. Where his picture should bare been there was a vacant space which testified always to the justice of the repnblic Let such aracant space m our court room testify to tlie justice or our republic Let it speak in warning to all who would betrar liberty. A Benjamin Coma to Judgement. When Gen. Grant declared that the Rebels had robbed the cradle and the grave, the Rebel Press denounced the assertion without stint or measure. But time tests the truth of all things; and between time and Mr. Benjamin, we have double confirmation of Gen. Grant's pithy epigram. "I tell you," says the Rebel Secretary, "that I know not where white men can be had." Trumpet-blast could not be loutrcr, clearer, or more to the point. Do you think," he continues, "we have worked night after night hy this infamous gas light you have here, and not found out this thing?" . Indeed we do not, nor do the Rebels themselves. That, notwithstanding the 'infamous gas light,' feverv nook and corner, cranny and dog-hole were pried into, ransacked and turned inside out, no one can doubt. The result no more able-bodied white mun; all gonty used up, dead and buried or left the country. " The war was begun upon two delusions, and for the avowed maintenance of two oligarchies. Cotton was king, and slavery was divine. How has it turned out? Cotton is not even heir apparent, the divinity of Slavery is not so mticli second rate paganism. The rebels themselves are discussing the propriety of freeing the netrroes, and they are burning their idol King Cotton. Having gone to war to perpetaate the bondage of the slave, they are now calling upon him to 6ght out the battle and save them before they perish. "Unless these lines be re-enforced by black men," says Benjamin, they will be forced to disappear from your front- No doubt of it. r The moral is plain. Elaboration need not dwell upon it. One brief, closing sentence contains the whole thing. "For," concluded 3Ir. Benjamin lifting his hand solmnly above him, "I tell you there are not- enough able-bbdied men ia the country." : "vTe judge from the stir about Sylvester T.

The Davenport Brothers Mobbed
Sceae of Excitrmeat ia X-iverpvel The Darra port CakiatJrlrorel. ' ?i The Davenport brothers were Inobbed, at Liverpool, .England, oa the 15th ultimo. The Liverpool Pest of the . 16th says : The audience elected Mr. Cummins and Mr.- Hulley as the committee to tie the brothers. The Davenports objected at first, bat ; ultimately agreed. ' Ira Dvttport wriggied'suid twiaWd a good deal during the operation and at its conclusion turned round suddenly to Dr. Ferguson. Air. Cummins shrugged bis shoulders and walked away, while Dr. Ferguson immediately stepped up and instantaneously Ira Davenport stood free. He at once created a groat sensation by exposing the back of bis hand to tlie audience, with Mood flowing from it. Tlie excitement at this point was extreme, and though it was hardly applicable how a rope could prodm e a wound from which the blood would thus copiously flow, the tables for the moment eeemed to be tlirnett ttpon the gentlemen Whoso brutality had been so strongly animad rcrted upon. Mr. Ira Davenport, bastilv i r . v. r i : - . 1 aim imui an iiiuiguani expression ft conntenance, left the stage, followed by his brother. Mr. Cummins then addressed the audience nearly in these words f "Ladies and gentlemen, 3'ou hare seen blood upon the hand of the person who has just left this platform. That blood was caused by Dr. Ferguson in cutting the rope." Upon this an immense shout of mingled triumph and indignation arose from tbe audience, whose sympathies it was at once evident had scarcely wavered, even during the sensation incident they bad just witnessed. In tho noise which ensued Dr. Ferguson's explanation was tons inaudible. Mr. Cummins was heard to declare that if any medical man would certify that the wound had not been produced as he had stated he would give five pounds to any Liverpool charity. The audience now began to take matters in their own hands. One gentleman led the way and several others scrambled over the footlights on to the platform, with the view, apparently, of demanding their money of Dr. Ferirnson. It is due tO Messrs. lltllley and CummitlS to SSJ that thev did their utmost to keen tho , . - , . . ' ' "l ' crowd back, and to protect Dr Ferguson and Mr. Leichton, who were still on the stage. The numbers, however, were too great for the resistance to avail,- and the next thing witnessed was the overthrow of the cabinet, Dr. Ferguson being pushed backwards into it. He immediately rose but as immediately retreated, nnd we are informed that he, the Davenports, and Mr. Fay were out of the building almost as soon as Dr. Ferguson was off the stage. Shortly afterwards, Mr. Ilnllej' was borne from tbe room on the shoulders of an admiring' throng. ' The crowd on the platform at once proceeded to demolish the cabinet, nnd Dr. Ferguson's much ridiculed "structure" will never again bailie the scrutiny or beguile the credulity of a Ilritish audi ence. The scene during the smashing j and distribution of the fragments of the ! cabinet was very exciting. Pieces were thrown up into the galleries, and the occupants of that part of the hall busily vied with those in the body in scrambling for the spoils, while many resorted, probably as a relief to their excitement, in letting themselves down from the galleries on to the stage. One person only fell into the hands of the police, upon a charge of breaking one of the caryatides by which the gallery is supported. A portiou of the right arm of the figure was knocked off by the young man placing his haid upon it as he dropped from the gallery. The proceedings, though turbulent, were exceedingly good-humored, ami they were enlivened by a few burlesque addresses, delivered from the platform to those in the body of the hall. In the meantime some thirty p licemen had arrived ; they occupied tbe singe, and the hall was shortly afterwards cleared. ' JtiT Jt will be recollected that the Davenports' met with some 'grief ' in our city, when tney exhibited their box and tying apparatus, &c, here, mainly thro' the efforts of G. W. Wooi, Esq., editor of the Telegram. They came near being put through the same process then that they have met with as above described. Suit was brought against them for obtaining money under false pretenses, they were bound over for their appearance at court, but the case was dismissed. We allude to the part taken 6y Mr. V. in unmasking the Davenports, to show the fallacy of tbe charge made against him of sj-mpathizing with aod being a confirmed believer in "spiritualism," or "whangdoodleism," as it u vulgarly torined.
