Sympathizers in the N North, and leaders in the Confederacy may‘attempt to hide from us its decay ; but the very means taken to hide the truth only make it more apparent. Fi- nancially it is bankrupt; in regard to food, complaint comes from every quar- ter ; as to men, the last resort of desper- ation has come, the last possible effort is being made ; territorially, it is contracted to a fraction of the proud proportions it once claimed; morally, it is losing the sympathy of the world, and even the respect of multitudes of those in its own midst. Yet it still has strength for a desperate effort, and that effort is to be made during the coming spring and sum- mer. That last despairing cfi’ort met and defeated, and the rest is easy. Here are the men who are going t help to meet it. These sun~embrowned veterans, who, on field after field, have shown their devotion to the Union, are going back, with thousands more just like them.

' In the interval of waiting for the report of the Committee on Resolutions, Mr. John F.

Rice, of Farmington, follow- ed, stating the issue that was to be met, and indulging a belief that it would be decided in the right way at the spring election. Mr. D. P. Tyler was also called upon, and remarked that he had always ablded by the principles of the fathers, and that his action was now governed by those same standards. He predicted in eloquent words the advance- ment of free principles. The committee appointed for the purpose then presented the following ' RESOLUTIONII. Resolved, That we congratulate the loyal citizens of the State, and of the whole coun- try, on the progress of the Government, during the past year, toward the re-estaba lishment of its authority throughout the nation; and that we believe the time is near at hand when the venerated flag of the re- public shall be honored in every State, as the protector of the weak, the pride and boastof the strong, and the ensign of a free, ha py, united people. olved, That we believe our national cause is under the guidance of the same ood Providence that has in all nations and In all 9. es vindicated the principles of jus- tice, and finally, in His own good time, over- thrown the obstacles in the way of an ad- vancing civilization; and that we hold to the faith of our fathers, who affixed upon the banner of our State the memorable words, that “ He who transplanted will sus- tain.” ' Resolved, That we regard all propositions for treaties Of peace with the rebels as trea- sonable attempts to recognize their authority as a government, and that there can be no ‘treaties with them—nothing but uncondi- tional submission on one side or the other. Resolved, That the President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln, in the midst of trials unsurpassed, by his unquestioned hon- esty and patriotism—by his unswervlngnc- votion to the best interests of his imperiled country—by his steady and lawful progress towards the suppression of the rebellion and the annihilation of the cause of it—by his impartiality in the distribution of the mili- tary power in his hands—and by the entire devotion of every faculty of his heart and head to the Welfare Of his country—has won our entire confidence, and the grateful plau- dits which he receives from the wise and good of other lands who sympathize with us in our national struggle. We do, there- fore, re ard his re-election to the place he now ho ds, and the completion of his wise political and war policy, as vitally important to the best interests of the country; and We hereby request our delegates to give him their united support in the coming National Convention. ‘ Resolved, That the thanks of the people of this State are due the gallant soldiers and sailors of all the loyal States, and that we are under the deepest obligations to the brave men of our own 'State, who have sig- nalized their valor and devotion to the coun- try in ' so many bloody conflicts; and we tender to the bereaved families, whose he- roes have fallen, our heartfelt sympathies for their afflictions; reminding them of the con- solations to be derived from the reflections that their precious dead have been given to the cause of a country that we trust Will never forget nor neglect any of the sufferers in this great struggle for the life of the Nation. ' Resolved, That we pledge our efforts to_se- cure the amendment to our State Constitu- tion proposed by the legislature Of our State, extendiu to our soldiers In the field the elective anchise. . Resolved, That we have always been In fa- vor of making every exertion in our power to fill the ranks of our army by volunteers- and that if a draft shall be required it Will be mainly attributable to the factions con- duct of our opponents. Resolved, That His Excellency, Gov. Wm. A. Buckingham, meIits our strongest confi- dence and support, for his indefatigable and successful labors in conducting the executive affairs of our State during the period of his service in the Gubernatorial Chair—that for his tender care of our soldiers—his unwayer- ing support of the National Administration, and his self-sacrificing patriotism, he is Just- ly entitled to the regards and confidence of the people of this State, and we will do all in our power to promote his election by a greatly increased majority. . The resolutions were then u Iauimously adopted. Power to appoint substitutes to fill vacan- cies was given to the delegates to the Na- tional Convention, and also to the members ofthe State Central Committee. Votes of thanks to the Republican and Union Com- mittees of the past year, and to Gen. Pratt for the able discharge of duties as Chairman Of the Convention. With loud and enthusiastic cheering for President Lincoln, Gov. Buckingham and the cause, this most harmonious and able Convention adjourned sine dz'e. <<.>- WThe furloughs of the members of the 8th and 11th Regiments re-assembled last week, and are now quartered at Wallingford, where they are to stay until Gen.

The fourth annual meeting of the Bible Society of Norwalk and vicinity, was held at the First Congregational Church, on Sun- day Evening last. Chandler Starr, Esq, President" of the Society, presided; Rev. 0. W. Gates, Secretary, read the annual report, and short addresses were delivered by the Chairman, and by Rev. Mr Atkinson, of Westport, Dr. A. Hill and Rev. Joseph An- derson, of this place. The old board ofofil— cers were re-el'ectcd, as follows: Chandlerr Starr, President; Rev. -0. W. Gates, Sid; v 'u s. lurpriie Parties. For the past month, “ Surprise Parties” have been all the rage in this village, three or four often occurring each week. They i seem to have taken the place of all other l parties, and, so far as we know, have proved 1 very pleasant and sociable gatherings, cspec- , ially as care has been taken to go only where i a cheerful welcome was sure. But so com- 3 man have they become, that no resident in .the village or within a reasonable distance of the horse-railway, need be astonished on re- turning home any pleasant evening to find his castle invaded and completely overrun by a party of ladies and gentlemen intent on surprising him and making themselves hap- py. And when he comes to the bountifully laid supper table, and bites into a sole-leath- er sandwich or “ secesh cake,” or grinds his teeth against shells in walnut cake, or helps himself to potato mottoes or tart pies stuffed with cottonf—he need only smile and ac- knowledge himself “ sol .” But of all “ Surprise Parties” given in this vicinity, the most agreeable and satisfactory oneto‘all concerned, assembled at thereaf- deuce of Rev. Joseph Anderson, Pastor of the First Congregational Church, on Friday evening last. The Reverend gentleman and his lady had been invited out to tea with the family of one of his parishioners, and on re- turning home', early in the evening,- were surprised to find the house crowded with members of his cOngregation, all in the most cheerful spirits and intensely enjoying his astonishment. Going through the house, strange sights met his eye; his pleasant ll- brarv was turned into a storehouse, while the kitchen was filled with choice catables and busy matrons engaged in preparing 'cofi'ee, tea, &c., and in the dining room the table was already set in beautiful style. But surprise followed surprise, for before‘ supper Dr. J. G. Barbour in an excellent address presented to him in behalf of those present, a pocket book containing a check for Three Hundred Dollars, as a token cf their appreciation of his ever kind, faithful and devoted services as their pastor. The Reverend gentleman made a most touching and eloquent reply in expression of his gratitude for their sympathy and presents. Rev. 0. W. Gates, of the First Baptist church, also made a few appropriate and happy remarks. , Other amounts of money were presented during the evening, and large quanifies of choice provisions were left untouched. Although hurriedly gotten up, we have never seen a more pleasant and social gath- ering in Norwalk, all present seeming espec- ially pleased with themselves and each oth- er, ‘and to thoroughly enjoy the pleasure giv- en their pastor and his wife. 7 We think Rev. Mr. Anderson may well feel proud of his “ Surprise,” being as it was, an earnest expression of affection and "sym- pathy from his own people. ~¢.>. CAMP 17TH CONN. VOL. INE’v, 2 Folly Island, S. 0., Feb. 14, 1864. 5' DEAR GAzETTE: Since my last letter we have had a slight “stir,” in the way of an expedition to Johns Island. On the night of the 6th—one week ago to-day—we left camp in light marching order, and proceeded to the south end of this island, where transportation awaited us to Kiawah Island. About 12 o’clock that night we were joined by the balance of our brigade, and took up our march through woods and swamps, and after marching un- til daylight, we halted at an old plantation, half way down the island. We remained here during the day, until 9 o’clock P. M., with orders to make no noise whatever; and no man was allowed to leave the woods, nor place hiinsclf in a position to be seen by the enemy. The day passed slowly—a greater portion of the men sleeping, and preparing for an- Otber night’s march. At nine o’clock we received orders to move forward, and after a march of some five miles, arrived at the creek which separates Kiawah from Sea- brook Island. "This creek had to be forded, and into it The column marched, the .water being up to the men’s waists. Arriving on the other side we halted, and the men were allowed time to change their stockings, as the order for the march required them to carry an extra pair. Another five miles, and daybreak appears. We are halted at the plantation of one of the Seabrook brothers, and soon a signal of three'lights from Von Gilsa’s brigade tells us that he has arrived at the point selected for the junction of the forces. ' The head of our column had reached the bridge over the creek which divides Sea- brook and Johns islands, when a Rebel picket post was discovered. Immediately two companies of our old friends, the 75th Ohio, are deployed as skirmisbers, while we are halted toawait the result. Not long did we remain there; for soon two companies of the 17th were ordered out, under com- mand of Capt. Wilson French. They were halted at the plantation, and Gen. Ames or- dered them to await further orders. The regiment was then sent forward, but the skirmishers have already driven the “ John- nies” flying through the woods, although they fought 110ny and their Captain who was in command Of the picket at the time we came upon them, fell pierced with three bul- lets. Their force was about seventy-five mountedinfantry and foot; we took seven or eight prisoners, wounded six and killed two. We lost one killed and five wounded, one of whom, the sergeant-major of the 142d New York had his arm, amputated. The balance was very slight, most of them re- maining in the ranks. We advanced about four miles that day, having been deployed as skirmishers, and found the enemy intrencbed in rifle-pits.— Geu. Ames deeming it useless to attack them we fell back to the position which we held in the morning. The troops were ordered to sleep on their arms, but very little sleep did they partake of. At daybreak our Regiment was placed behind a dyke, and having pro- cured shovels and axes, soon transformed it into a splendid rifle pit. This we occupied until 2 o’clock P. M., when we relieved the 41st New York on picket. Col. Noble had entire command of the whole line of pick. eta, and Capt. Allen took command of the regiment. The night was very cold, yet the boys performed their duties without a mur- mur, and the line of pickets of the 17th were complimented very highly by the officers the next day (Thursday) a general advance was ordered, but the 17th Conn. and 144th New York having been on picket during the night, were ordered to remain as a re- servc. They proceeded about five miles up the Island when the enemy Opened from a fort on James Island, and having - no artil- lery that could reach them, our forces were compelled to retire, after losing 4 killed and several wounded, all of the 41st N. Y.’ Thatnight we remained at the plantation, and at two A. M. on Friday we retired across the lit er, after burning the Bridge and the buildings in that vicinity. We re- crossed to Kiowah Island at daylight, and arrived at Camp on Friday at 5 o’clock'P.

I have received a telegram, under date of (Feb. 14, from Gen. , ’istar, which states that Col. Strelght, th 110 other Union Officers, escaped from prison in Richmond by digging a tunnel. Col. Straight, with 17 others, are safe. (Signed) BE NJ. F. BUTLER, Major General Commanding. BALTIMORE, Feb. 17. The escaped Union officers reached here this morning, and go to Washington this afternoon. ' The account of their escape is full of thrilling interest, but for prudential rea- sons many particulars are withheld from publication at present. They were 51 days making a. tunnel. Having managed to find access to the cellar, they com. menced work—relieving one another as opportunity offered. Their instruments were ease knives, pocket knives, chisels and files. Twice they had to abandon their work and commence anew, on ac- count Of the obstructions which they could not pass. - After getting through the wall, they disposed of the excavated soil by draw- ing it out in a spittoon, and spreading it in shallow layers or the floor—concealing it beneath the straw. The work was ne- cessarily very slow. At one time, they got so near the bend Of the street that a small hole, about the size of a stove pipe, broke through, but fortunately this was not discovered by the guard, and was a great service—ad- mitting air and enabling them to prose- cute their work more rapidly. The tunnel when completed was about 60 feet long, and opened into an old to- bacco shed beyond the line of guards.— As soon as they found the way clear, they emerged slowly in small squads of two or three, and sauntered Ofi‘ until they got clear Of the guards, making their Way towards the Williamsburg road by the shortest route. ' The darkness favored them, and the fact that all the rebel soldiers whom they met were habited in the army coats of Uncle Sam, which they had stolen from the supplies sent to our prisoners by our Government, was of great' help to them. Although they were attired in our army overcoats and many Of them had their haversacks, they found the National uni- form a better disguise than if they had been provided with the genuine rebel uniforms. In order to elude. the pursuers, who they knew would soon be on their track, they scattered as much as possible.— Many were their hardships and sufi'erings and frequent were their narrow escapes from the rebel cavalry, who the next morning were bushwhacklng in every di- rection for them. To the ofiicers and men of the llth Pennsylvania Cavalry, whom they first met, they express the most prOfound grat- itude for their unbounded kindness, and also hear testimony to the gallantry with which these gallant fellows pursued the rebel cavalry and rescued many of the way-worn fugitives, who otherwise would have been recaptured. There is good reason to hope that many more will yet come in safe WOf the 160 who broke jail, 59 had up to latest accounts reached our lines; many had been re-captured by the reba, but it is thought that many more will yet reach our lines. o‘.!-.—“.

Captain Broatch of Co. A, 14th C. V., arrived in this city from the regiment on Saturday. The Captain was in the recent engagement at Morton’s Ford—in which the 14th lost, as usual, so heav- ily—and received a leave of absence be- cause of a severe wound in the right hand. He was swinging his sword, when a ball struck his sword hilt, dama- ging the hand so as to render it useles- for that occasion ;he then took the wea- pon in his left hand, when another ball struck his sword, breaking it in the mid- die. The men of the Fourteenth are not at all pleased that the New York press should have charged them with breaking badly, when, in point of fact, that honor. belonged to the 38th New York, or the Garabaldis, as they are termed. this fact is, and ought to be known, that the Garabaldis were ordered to make a charge upon a nest of rebels. and those individuals, strongly posted, made the Garabaldians fall back with loss. Gen, eral Hayes, commanding the division, then said : “Send me up the Four- teenth, they won’t break ;” and the Four- teenth did come up, made the charge gallantly, drove the rebels from their position and held it until it was dark, 'when they were ordered to‘ fall back. This statement concerning the Fourteenth is substantiated by the best authority. -—Palladium ‘ 0..-- ’ 63‘ The re-enlisted Veterans of the Tenth Regiment C.
