How it Works. it has always been characteristic of the lemocrats to try to curry favor with Ger- mans and Irishmen, by pretending to be the especial guardians of the interest of the hiborng classes. The late Convention at Columbus repeated the old story iu the form of a resolution adopted, deprecating any. competition between white and black lbor that : the -- emancipation of slaves would cue the border free States to be overrun ivith blacks, who in theiraaiij-- l for work, would williugly labor for less wages than are usually paid to white la- borers.; This charge hrs been reiterated time and again, ; notwithstanding it is whoUy inconsistent with thai other ven- erable proposition of the same party, that free nef roes will not work; that thoy are always lzy and idle, which, if true, of oourse spoils f heidolized theory tht white laborers, will be ruined.' by competing blacks.-- 1 But a faction that esteems the obtaining of votes and the securin-v- f offi- ce's as the chief end of its being, is not, of course, scrupulous as to the consistency of its arguments. , The effect of this particular doctrine is pernicious cruel, tyranical and molocra-ti- c in its be.rring5. It inculcates the di- abolical sentiment that "negroes have no rights wfiite men are bound to respect." It gives license to one class of laborers to impose upon another, and deprive them of their just rights by brute force. The late riotous outbreaks of Irish laborers at Toledo and Cincinnati, seeking to prevent black men from working as laborers at the docks and wharves of those cities, and their brutal oppression of colored men, the destruction of their property, te., is but the legitimate fruits of the teachings ofhogus Democratic politicians who, while stuffing the Irishman with their fulsome flattery, are instilling into his breast a rancorous hatred of the black, who is spec ialized as an unwerantable competitor of the other in the field of common labor. This doctrine among the true friends of free labor cannot long nourish or be tolerated. . It is a disgrace to our State that there can be found a class of men so bae, pq bound by party prejudices, that they will stoop to the despicable wofTi of teaching the poorer class of whites that their greatest enemies are the poor blacks, who, like themselves, are depeudeut upon their daily labors for the bread-tha- t inea-gecl- y sustains their families. ' It is a burn- ing shame that' sucu political quackery iucli arrant ' deniagogueism-ehoul- d be proclaimed in the name of Democracy a sentiment,' in truth, the very antipode of a theory so illiberal and erroneous. Col. Matthews Would'nt Go In. That Veil known Ohio Democrat, Col. Stanly Matthews, of the 02d Regiment, was out of the State, during the time that Ran ney. Fries, Medary and others of that ilk were busy in gathering up the broken fragments of Democracy, and but recent- ly returned to Cincinnati, where he was promptly waited pn by the conspirators, who sought to eulist his .services in be- half or the work they had blocked out. To their entreaties and solicitations Stan- ly was somewhat evasive, ho did'nt come up to the work as they wanted him to ! he hesitated he had been down to Tcn- - V-- ce and wasn't osted" liad not rtad the "address" aboutwhich they vxpiated "wanted tima to consider, ., Ac."

Al- though the bill bs originally p.;ed by Congress, underwent some modifications suggested by the President, it is still a strong weapon to bu weilded against the rebels. Tlii following is a synopiis of the bill : 1. Deutli lor treason and the lried.mi of the trahoi 's or lie shall l im- prisoned liv tine 1 SlO.OjO and .11 his estate, except slaves -- hall be seized. 2. The President is authorized to seue the property of traitors and secure the proceeds to the government, lie is to issue a proclamation giving sixty days ti rebels to return to allegiuuce, or their property will be forfeited. ;i. For iiftiting rebellion or giving it aid or comfort, forfeiture of personal property, ten years in prison. jld.OVO fine and slave freedoiu given. 4. Slaves of persons iu rebellion, or w ho give aid and comfort, who take refuge in our lines, to be held as war captives and forever after free. 5. All slaves deserted by their masters, or found at places occupied by our troops to be free. C. Xo slave escaping from one State to another to be delivered up (except for crime)unless the claimant swears that he has not borne arms or given aid or coru- - tort to the present rebellion. 7. No person of Naval or Military au- thority to set U()On the validity of claim- ants to the service of slaves, on penalty ol dismissal from the service. 8.

The President is also authorized to extend pardons, and proclaim general amnesty to rebels as he may deem expe- dient for the public interest. The Constitutional objections of the President to the bill passed by Congress were obviated by that body adopting a resolution, as follows : Resolved, By the Senate and House of Representatives, lliattlie provision ot the third clause of the tilth sectiou of an act to suppress insurrection, to punish treason and rebellion, to seize and confis- cate the property of rebels, and other pur- poses shall be so construed as not to ap- ply to any acts done prior to the passage thereof, nor to include any member of a State Legislature, or a Judge of any State Court who lias not, iu acceptance, or en- tering upon the duties of his otlices taken an oath to support the constitution of the Confederate States of America, nor shall any punishment or proceeding under aid act to be so construed as to work a forfeiture of the real etaU; of the oll'ender beyond his natural life.

In it the President urged the following objec- tions : That to which I chiefly object pervades most parts of the act. but more distinctly appears iu the 1st, 2d, Vth and 8th sec- tions. It is the sum of those provisions which results in the divesting of title for- - ever. ...

' I hat we may not touch property lying within our reach, because we cannot give personal notice to an owner wdio is absent endeav- oring to destroy the Government, is cer- tainly not very satisfactory. Still the owner may not be thus engaged, and I think a reasonable time should be provi- ded for such parties to appear aud have personal hearing. Similar provisions are not uncommon in connection with pro- ceedings in rem. For '.he reasons stated, I return the bill to the House in which it originated. General Pope.-Spirit- ed Orders All eyes are now turned to General Poi as the bright, particular star now in full blaze iu the military firmament.

Three-fouth- s of the troops, and munitious and supplies of every description for the rebel army at Richmond, of a necessity passed through Goidonsvilleby rail. The blow is, there, f re, a most important one, more especial- ly as it is the first of a fceries hid! ,vc trust will do more to cripple theefticiency of their rebel Richmond armv than aught that hits ret oe cured. General. Pope has issued important ami v orders. General order No. 5 states that hereafter, as far pract icable, the troops of his command will subsist upon the coun try in which their operations are carried on. Order No. 9 announces that "Hereafter in any operations of cavalry forces in this c vmmatitl no supply or baggage trains o! any description' will be used, unless spec- ially stated so in the order for the move- ment. Two d.iys cooked rations will be car- ried on the persons of the men, and all villages or neighborhoods .through which they pass will be laid under contribution in the manner specified by General Order a j. ;, current series, for tiiese jieilcjuaj- - t rs for the subsistence of men ami homes. 3fovemoutsof cavalrv must be made with celerity, said no delay in such move- -' menis will be excused on anv pretext.

This looks as if there was going to be a "vigorous prosecution of the war" where Tope advances. Wo hope he will beat Stonewall Jackson at his own game. From the 24th Regiment. FLORENCE, Ala., June 26, 1862. Chronicle Friends: You see we jog along; sojer chaps now days keep moving. Af ter 1 joined niv regiment, our uivision stood a week before Corinth, then into. through and beyond it. Then made a forced march to relieve Tope, who was said to be in difficulty. Then from the advance we turned off via Jacinto on to luka. (a watering place) maneuvered a few days and pushed eastward to Tuscuni- - bia; we crossed the Tennessee river and encamped beyond the town plot of Flor- ence. Have not had tents up for twenty-si- x days ; roughed it in the bush entirely. Weather hot, hotter, hotest; water of the ditch, swamp and mud-hol- e kiud, save for .lie lat two davs, during which we havo passed through a fine country with big, Illinois-lookin- g cornfields, (up fence high) and tip-to- p water- - which, 1 assure you, is one of the "main branches" to a soldier When a 21th Ohio man finds a good, cool spring, ho shouts, "real Cheat Mountain water !" then there is a stampede. I thought the other day I would have to turn myself into a regular, ranting, alolitionist, as I cannot disguise the act, itself evident, that the darkies we meet are more shrewd and intelligent what you call "smarter" than the white folks. The fact is forcing itself up on the soldiery. It is an outrage upon the common sense of an observant man, passing through this country, to say that the blacks here cannot take care of them- selves. Pshaw! if let alone I believe they could run the "plantation" as well as the overseers. Of course the war has drained the wayside of much of its best intelli- gence, as far as the whites arc concerned. The recruits, Ilayward and Taylor, are hearty and in fine spirits ; they are the right kind of stuff for soldiers, as is Mont-- gomerv. Thev sav nothing can kill him, he is tough and wiry. I note also the good health and behavior of Mowery and Gid-ding- s. Rice had a bad cheek ; most well. Anderson was left at Pittsburgh Landing, somewhat ill, from where I suppose he went home, as they grant furloughs to all who ask, if anything ails them. Sergeant Andrews is at his old post, Color Bearer. Gray got back feeling very lively. He took good care of that big, round box, as I can testify by personal taste.

Buel. I have been intending to go home as soon as the Pay Master gets around. The war here rapidly assumes the permanent phrase of merely " occupy and hold." And as I prefer other employment to sol- diering upon the merely draw rations and draw pay plan, why I shall give some one else a chance to wear my shoulder straps. Tho powers that be understand their busi- ness better than I do, at least ought to, at any rate I do not intend to grumble, as I made up my mind when I enlisted to take it for a year just as it c:tme. That the pel-ic- y of tho commanding Generals saves thousands of hys and arms, none can doubt, but that it saves life is an open question.

From the Seventh Regiment. ALEXANDRIA, VA., July 12th, Mexsrs FAilors: A very pleasant' week his passed, aud this evening finds me try- ing to write some intelligence of interest to the many readersof the "Chronicle." We are still enjoying the same quiet rest that we were a week ago. and have the same prospect of its continuance. A person would not have thought it possi-- ; ble to efiect ,." such a .:... cuange, m oi, short a time, as has been wrought in this regiment, within the past two weeks, When we came here, we were poorly cloth- - . , i' eu, were not over .asua.ou, m personal , appearance, guns and equipments were I not clean, pnd the general' apearancc of the men indicated the lack of the care ... and iieaUicss. of winch every should be proud. This arose from tho fatiguo induced by an active campaign. Mark the cljauge. Every gun is in the ! best poble order, men wll dreo4 with , shoe blacked and clothes nicely brushed, and the encampment a model of neatness, The change is more striking when the regiment is on parade. Every man feels that he is one of a line of men whose p--1 pearance cannot bexcel!cd, and con-- : scious of his duty iiihelping to render the ,,i., ;w.i.. mnmnnl.

"mu "llu uur -- o'"punj m unuue with the members, many of whom were old acquaintances, and all unite in pro- nouncing it a "good time." On Thursday and Friday we enjoyed a vLit from Gen. Gary, of Cincinnati. Yes- terday, (Friday.) the brigade was march- ed up to headquarters, where we listened to speeches from Gen. Cary and ry of the 01st Pa. Regt.. the Provnst Marshal of Alexandria. Gen. Gary's speech was an excellent one, and well calculated to be alike pleasing and instructive. He spoke of the War as a war against Pop- ular Government, and it originated in South Carolina; that South Carolina, weresheout of the Federal Union, which is in itself, hostile to a republican from of government, that under the existing state constitution, men can only vote for state legislature, that all other officers, state or otherwise, arc appointed by the legislatures; that no man can vote unless he owns at least ten slaves. Slavery may have something to do with the war, but only as political capital in the hands of the Rebels, because Slavery and pure republican government are incompatible to the existence of each other. But the "irrej-iressibl- conflict" is still going on-an- d this wicked rebellion must be put down, even at the sacrifice of the rebel Slavery. Traitors must be punished, aud their property sequestrated, even to the "contraband, anil not pro- tected and guarded by loyal soldiers. Notwithstanding the boys were kept nearly four hours in position, they felt that the time was profitaplv employed. The news from MeClellan is meager but cheering. That "reliable gentleman" in forms us that we may expect soon to hear of the rapid advance of the grand army upon Richmond, but then he is suclt a reliable man that we always believe him when his intelligence is coufirmed by offi cial dispatches. Although our loss was frightful in the six day's fighting, and the base of opera tions is much farther from Richmond, the rebels are very slow m proclaiming a vic tory, for they know and feel that they have been completely befooled and sadly outgeneralled, and that our "retreat" was their defeat. The truth of the mat ter is, that McClell-an'- s genius is too much for the bast of them, and they know it. Time alone will show the immense advantage we have gained in securing the James river as a jioint Tap-pu- i We have now a front of only ten miles, instead of thirty, flanked by the impenetrable Chiekahoininy swamp on the right, and by our gun boats on the left, which the rebels admitted to be "equal to a whole division We have gained a secure footing in a healthy section, placing the "rebs" in a "critical position," and they have gained swamps where we lost so many men by fevers and ague. MeClellan has been strongly reinforced by a heavy land force, and with Com- modore Wilkes and his fleet ready fo cooperate with him, we would not be surprised to hear of stirring movements soon. Gen. Banks, with his corps T armce, is at Warrentown, and Gen. Pope is rapid ly following with his splendid army, and we will soon hear him thundering away at the gates of Richmond, Gen. Burnside is rapidly advancing toward the rear of the "guard center," and in a few days, the 'impregnable city" will be thorough- ly invested. At all events, wc are willing to abide the result. . The health of our regiment is still ex cellent, and our men arc constantly return- ing from the hospitals. Every one is in good spirits, and a willingness to perform any duty that may be given us. What may be our duty by and by, we do not know. It is ruinord that our brigade goes to Washington soon, to relieve the one there, when "guard duty" will be the or der of the day. But then it is nothin but runicr. But if 1 do not close I will be too late for the mail. JULIUS, Freedom to the Slaves—From which Side shall it Come—The Negroes for Sale; Who will buy. Samuel Wilkeson, of the X. Y. Tribune cloe.sa powerfully written letter from the Peninsula upon the suicidal policy of re- fusing to use the negroes of the South, with this startling and prophetic declara- tion of one of the most influential colored men who havo come to the army: 1 have talked with many intelligent men of color on this subject. The supei man of all is known as "Tom." I one day drew him out of his guarded silence on this theme by saying, "I am surprised, loin, that tne negroes in this remnsula dou't tiirht for us." 1 reckon you ain't, Mr. W. You know too much." " Why don't they fight for us, Tom." "l'hey expected to, Sir, mid all the col- ored men, from here to Texas' expectd to." "Why didn't they." "Yon know as well as I.

"The Xorth can't conquer the South without the help of the slaves. We know, too, that if the war lats, one party or the u'.hcr party will give us our free- dom."

The Traitors. The correspondent of the Xew Hamp- shire Statesman, among sketches of "Inner Lite iu Washington"' gives th following: j But the auction sale pertaining to the effects of great men, which was on the whole invested with as much cur.o-it- y as any of the season, was that of rebel Jew, Senator Benjamin. It was well known that Benjamin married a music teacher in Charleston, where he resided in early life, before taking up his residence in Xew Orleans, and that after living with her a short time, she eloped with an Italian by the name of I'elini, and for some twen- ty years lived with him in Paris, Bcnjimin in the meanwhile making jieriodieal visits to his early love in her new abode, until she was induced some throe years since, to "bag and baggage," and resume domestic relations in this city with her "tir.t love." To carry this arrangament into effect the distinguished Senator took the ele- gant residence which was erected by Com- modore Decatur a short time before his death. It is one of the first private resi- dences in the city, erected under the di- rection of Latrobe, the architect of the Capitol, at a cost of some &0,0lM) or $4i.-00- He paid annual rent for the premises, and the establishment w;is expense fully equal to the orig- inal cost of the building The whole fur- niture of every kind, was brought from Paris. It was under such auspices that Senator Benjamin and his truant spouse set up house-keepin- g on their "reunion" in this city. The course of true love, how- ever, never did run smooth, and the Sen- ator had only got well settled in domestic felicity again, when hismusical mate, fickel as the wind, took it into her head or heart, as you may please, to transfer her domestic relations back again to her long tried com- panion in Paris. This last movement oc- curred some two years ago, and shortly af- terward much of "the most valuable house- hold furniture sold at auction. Tho re- mainder of the effects have now been sold to pay the house rent. Among the articles sold was a marble bust of Benjamin himself, a full length portrait of his musical spouse, and also one of like description of his wife's father. There was also nn excellent full length port rati of his wife's daughter, a beauti ful girl, some eighteen years of age, who was born soon after the mother took up her residence with Celini. This last por trait, and one of the trench hmpress, are in the highest style of the art ; oil paint- ings all of them." They sold for some $P to $20 a piece, and were bid in by the auc- tioneer, who ha9 made a fortune in his business within a few years, and who has one of the best galleries of paintings in the citv. A Irench divan, purchased in Paris at a cost of SoOOO, was struckoff to Secretary Wells for $70. Old family sil ver plate, of French patterns and of the richest quality, was sold in immense quan tities, and for a song. Senator Benjamin is a noted gambler, and waste I in this way the vast income which nt one period he derived from his nrofcssionnl practice. On one occasion. after obtaining $70,000 in a great case asainst the celebrated John Randolph Grimes, lie sat down for three days to a "ambling table, and Slidell in that time won every dollar of that sum from him ! Slidell is celebrated for his skill at this business, and has accumulated mucn ot his fortune, it is said, ir. this way. If the history of the men who are lead- ing this assault upon the liberties of this country could be spread out to the world, it would make it evident that they have beon persons who "neitner feared God n r regarded men." Jeff. Davis is well known not to be no pattern of morality, ns those in the city, who have been with him in gambling debaucheries, with wine and women, not a biscuit's throw from Brown's hotel, can well testify. It w:o only an ordinary matter to see Floyd, while Secretary, go into his office of a morning, trembling in every muscle with the of delirium from the last night's revel ; and open and intolerable were tho visits of Secretary Thomas to a hotel haunt 011 Pennsylvania avenue, that his wife was repeatedly notified, through the mail, of her husband's disgraceful com- panionship. These are facts, not to be tor a moment called in question by those who arc at all acquainted with the life in Washington of the men to whom they ap- pertain. Hon Elisha Whittlesey. We are nained to learn that our distin guished fellow-citize- n has lost the sight of one eye. We hope this affliction may not result in tho total hs of sight. The occurrence, and his present condition, are riven 111 a letter dictated bv hnuselt da ted Washington, July 3, 1.62, addressed to JtiuK NtwioN' and Warrex Hive, from which we extract as follows: f'un- - tield Correspondence Mahoning Sentinel. To avoid all misapprehension, I inform you after office hours on the 1st 111st.. I retired to my rooms as usual, at Mrs. Hy- att's, sat down two or three feet from the window with my back towards it, and be-m- ii reading the "Baltimore Snn,' when I found my vision was impaired soon there- after. At ui- -t I supposed it arose from mv glasses, and put 0" another pair of s)"ectacle, without any nPUiible altera- tion. Putting my hand nporl my right eye, I found 1 could see nothing out of my left eve, except a light and no figures. (11 a short time, however, 1 could not dis- tinguish the rays of light. "Mrs. ILilt'e.id kindly prepared a poultice of slippery elm bark, which was replaced i the evening by substituting black tea leaves. The loss of sight ot that eye was sudden as the extinguish- ment of a candle.

I seat iinuir-- d ately after Dr. Peter Parker, a.distin-guishe- d American Commissioner, and oculist in China. Ho had loft the city and was in New York. I then sent lor Dr. R. K. Stone, who had studied in Pa- ris ::h an oculist. He prescribed remedies which are now being applied. Tho loss of mv sight was very extraordinary, and whether it will be restored is a matter of great doubt. I hope to be submissive fo the will of Divine Providence in this and and His either dispensations towards me. My own health is very good. I have suilered no pain with niy eye not produced by the remedies to re tho sight. Love to your families and to the neighbors. Most respectfully yours, ELISHA WHITTLESEY NEWS OF THE WEEK.

Th .isli villu IT it ir,n has .'oilier excellent news which it holds for the present, but it adds that our plana are all that can be desired. The Sixth Ohio Cavalry, while passing through Luray, Va., on Sunday, the 1.5th inst., were attacked by Ashby's cavalry, seconded by the citizens. The assailants were, however, beaten off with consider- able loss in killed and prisoners, our men escaping nearly unscathed. The Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette says that the recent reports that a general exchange of prison- ers had been agreed upon, are entirely false. Xothing, however, now prevents an exchange except the demand of Ken-tuckia- that Buckner shall not be given up ou uny terms, anil the rebels refuse to consent to an exchange to w hich there shall be exceptions. Nashville dales of the 10th report that the rebels have fallen back from Murl'rees- - boro toward McMinuville, aliout 2,000 in all. The captured officers wero taken along and the privates paroled. Our loss was 33 killed and 02 wounded; and the lossot the rebels about 50 killed and 100 wounded. 1 he citizens buried the dead left by the rebels, and take good care of the wounded. According to late accounts, 110 danger was apprehended to Nashville. Reinforcements were arriving, and the citizens were actively enlisting as Home Guards. The Richmond. Va., Dispatch, of July 11, contains the following: Mobile. July 10th. A special dispatch to the Advertiser, dated Jackson to-da-y, says the enemy is throwing occasional shells into Vicksburg. The crops are suffering for rain. There is no truth in the report that 1500 Yankees were at Baton Rouge. A dispatch from Augusta confirms the fact that the rebels had taken possession of Batou Rouge. The Jackson Mississipian of the 5th says, last Saturday morning Butler visited Ba- ton Rouge and made several arrests for trivial causes. ArousTA, (Ja.. July 10. Special dispatch to the Savannah Republican, dated Mobile 0th, says a passenger from New Orleans reports that a Maine Regiment inutiued on being ordered to Vicksburg, and two men were shot before tho disturbance was quelled.

Passengers from Memphis last night say intelligence was received there Monday last that Gen. Hindman had capturo 1 Curtis in Arkan- sas with OiHiO prisoners. Col. Fitch, be- ing unable to reach Curtis with reinforce-men'- s, returned to Memphis with his com- mand on Sunday. A Washington dispatch of the l?th, says: We have advices from WaiTcnton tiMlay. The news just received that Geu. Hatch occupied Gordnnsville h:is created great consternation among the leading rebels in Warrenton, who had not the least idea that Gen. Pope would reach that point without a greit battle: indeed many of them said it would be held at all hazzard. and no Yankee army would ever be permitted to take it. A dispatch dated Corinth, July IS, says Gen. Halleck has given up his command of the Army of the South-Wes- t. His reasons therefor are not given in the dis- patch. It is, however, stated in m o her quarter, that he is to be located at Wash- ington, and have some supervision of our armies. Xcws came on Saturday last that the rebels had crossed the Ohio river, near Henderson, Ky., and entered the town of Newburgh, Indiana, capturing 250 sick soldiers in hospital there. From Rebeldom.

Lieut, (.'ol. Tierson, of the I3d Xew York ReL'iment. arrived at Washington Friday last. He left the front of our T urinvoI1 ilie pwlillsuI:l Thursdav mornimr. At that time there were no forces of the enemy within fourteen miles of our lines, ou t"ls SK'e f the James river, - 1.11 a loon recounisauuo disclosed a ln.rg con centration of the lebols ou the south side, iu the vicinity of City Point. The army was represented to be in good condition, and with confidence nniin Hair ed in MeClellan. It is believed, however. that James River will be blocked by the re bels nt the bhitts of Claremont. The Richmond Enquirer of the 15th. appears alarmed at the order of our War concentrating the forces of McDowell, Fremont and Banks, under command of Major General Pope, and re- marks of tho latter that he is notoriously one of tins most dangerous of the Union commanders, an ottieer of great aetiv:ty and daring, and is very apt to do unex- pected things. It adds that the foray into Orange county, and the destruction ol'the railroad bridge over the Rxpidan. by the enemy, is u challenge on the part of Pope that our generals have now to take up. The Enquirer commentingon the threat- ening aspect of MeClellan 's operation, says we must dig, dig, dig. or MeClellan will dig into Richmond. The spade can only be conquered with the spade, and the shovel will always defeat the musket. Co!. Ritchie, in command of .1 regiment of loyal Indians, has reliable infoim ition that Chief John Ross was about to join the expedition with some 1500 warriors. A Memphis corresjiondent of the Chi-eac- o Tribune, under date of July 1$, savs: Geu. U. S. Grant received orders last eve ning to repair with his staff officers im- mediate! to Corinth and report to Gen. Halleck. The order did not arrive till late in the day, but Gen. Grant was prompt, his arrangements were soon made and he was under way before ten o'clock last evening. Gen. Hovey has command of the western district of Tennessee in his absence, and Gen. Thayer of the second division. Rumors arc life here as to thc cause of Gen. Grant's sudden movement Corinth-ward-.. The mt probable one i that Gen. Halleck is about to visit home 011 a snort respite, anil probably N ashuig-to-n and that he is about to turn Vis command over to Gen. Grant, m tho in terior. Some are willing to go so far as to say that Halleck is to lie made Secretary of War. and that the present occupant of that distinguished posifim is to retire to private lite. Xews lrom Xew Orleans to the Pith in.-t-., furnishes the following items of in terest: Gen. Shipley had received the appoint- ment of Military Governor of Louisiana. lieverdv Johnson has arrived. Two young ladies of Xew Orleans pre sented the 10th Connecticut regiment with a U. S. flag. Arrivals had induced Gen. Butler to re duce the price of flour to $24. It had been selling at $38(rf 40. Gen. Coppell having been recognized by Lord Lyons as British Consul and .apolo- gized to Gen. Butler for offensive expres- sions in hi letter of June I4th, had been acknowledged by Butler as the represen- tative of Great Britain. Arms, &c, for five Louisiana regiments had arrived iu Xew Orleans, and the or- ganization had commenced with prospects of success. A rebel camp at A mite bridge had been broken up aud several prisoners taken. The bombardment of Galveston had not commenced. A Sterner War Policy. It is refreshing lo hear the harmonious clear-ringin- g utterances of Governor John- son and Major-Gener- Wallace the one nt in the eh it, the other in tho ui.l.r. i y. work. c rcUuvtug tho rebel- lion. Xo two men have a better right to challenge attention. Governor Johnson w:;s the first military governor aj poiuted, has been brought into the broadest aud closest contact with the spirit which ani mates the rebellion, and is characteristic- ally deliberate and sagacious in all of his judgments. Geiural Wallace, one ol the younger class of estern command ers, in the held from the start, with a ca- reer of remarkable success and brilliancy. a model disciplinarian yet full of sympa- thetic fire, understanding thoroughly the soldier's nature and how to sustain enthu siasm, he is as perfect an embodiment a can be tound ot the fresh, dauntless, prac- tical taivir faire which is indispensible to the successful conduct of this great strug gle. Both the governor and the genera have been, and we suppose still are, Dem ocrats, and may therefore be presumed to be rather partial to slavery than other wise. et speaking wholly independent- ly of each other, five hundred miles apart, the one from a civil poir.c of view, the other from a military, they both declare, with nn emphasis, that this struggle must be carried on with a strong hand, and without regard to what ruav befall slavery. The civilian savs : "The strong .arm of the government must be bared, and jus- tice must do her work. "We may as well understand the fact first as last, and go to work rationally. If you persist in forcing the issue of slavery against this government, I say in the face of heaven, give me my government, and let the ne- groes go." The soldier says : '"Oh, if 1 could get a little backbone into those who are governing us. If I could but stimu- late them to the point of courage where they dare do their duty as our soldiers in the field dare to march to the cannon's mouth, and could induce them to let us. make war, that is all I ask. I have ns much prejudice against the negro politically, and am as much opposed to slavery agitation as any of you can be. Yet when he can be made available, let us make him so. Ho wouM be a poor soldier, in mv opinion, who would fail to uso PVerv element of war which God Ar.- - Vlf.nxv .. ve him. if, he could use it to his .,, These "sentiments, beyond all manner of a.mU. express the feeling now dominant ..,,. ,.1., .! in the armv.

How it Works.it has always been characteristic of the

lemocrats to try to curry favor with Ger-

mans and Irishmen, by pretending to bethe especial guardians of the interest ofthe hiborng classes. The late Conventionat Columbus repeated the old story iu theform of a resolution adopted, deprecatingany. competition between white and blacklbor that : the --emancipation of slaveswould cue the border free States to beoverrun ivith blacks, who in theiraaiij-- lfor work, would williugly labor for lesswages than are usually paid to white la-

borers.; This charge hrs been reiteratedtime and again, ; notwithstanding it iswhoUy inconsistent with thai other ven-

erable proposition of the same party, thatfree nefroes will not work; that thoy arealways lzy and idle, which, if true, ofoourse spoils fheidolized theory tht whitelaborers, will be ruined.' by competingblacks.-- 1 But a faction that esteems theobtaining of votes and the securin-v- f offi-

ce's as the chief end of its being, is not, ofcourse, scrupulous as to the consistencyof its arguments. ,

The effect of this particular doctrine ispernicious cruel, tyranical and molocra-ti- c

in its be.rring5. It inculcates the di-

abolical sentiment that "negroes have norights wfiite men are bound to respect."It gives license to one class of laborers toimpose upon another, and deprive themof their just rights by brute force. Thelate riotous outbreaks of Irish laborers atToledo and Cincinnati, seeking to preventblack men from working as laborers atthe docks and wharves of those cities, andtheir brutal oppression of colored men,the destruction of their property, te., isbut the legitimate fruits of the teachingsofhogus Democratic politicians who, whilestuffing the Irishman with their fulsomeflattery, are instilling into his breast arancorous hatred of the black, who is specialized as an unwerantable competitor ofthe other in the field of common labor.

This doctrine among the true friendsof free labor cannot long nourish or betolerated. . It is a disgrace to our Statethat there can be found a class of men sobae, pq bound by party prejudices, thatthey will stoop to the despicable wofTi ofteaching the poorer class of whites thattheir greatest enemies are the poor blacks,who, like themselves, are depeudeut upontheir daily labors for the bread-tha- t inea-gecl- y

sustains their families. ' It is a burn-ing shame that' sucu political quackeryiucli arrant ' deniagogueism-ehoul- d beproclaimed in the name of Democracya sentiment,' in truth, the very antipodeof a theory so illiberal and erroneous.

Col. Matthews Would'nt Go In.That Veil known Ohio Democrat, Col.

Stanly Matthews, of the 02d Regiment,was out of the State, during the time thatRan ney. Fries, Medary and others of thatilk were busy in gathering up the brokenfragments of Democracy, and but recent-ly returned to Cincinnati, where he waspromptly waited pn by the conspirators,who sought to eulist his .services in be-

half or the work they had blocked out.To their entreaties and solicitations Stan-ly was somewhat evasive, ho did'nt comeup to the work as they wanted him to !

Cool morning:

said the Pre-ide- would not sijiu the billcoutiseuting rcbol property, and withwhoui,"no doubt, tie 'wish was father totho thought," he has eudorsed it with hissignature, and the bill is now a law. Al-

though the bill bs originally p.;ed byCongress, underwent some modificationssuggested by the President, it is still a

strong weapon to bu weilded against therebels.

Tlii following is a synopiis of the bill :

1. Deutli lor treason and the lried.miof the trahoi 's or lie shall l im-

prisoned liv tine 1 SlO.OjO and .11 hisestate, except slaves --hall be seized.

2. The President is authorized to seuethe property of traitors and secure theproceeds to the government, lie is toissue a proclamation giving sixty days tirebels to return to allegiuuce, or theirproperty will be forfeited.

;i. For iiftiting rebellion or giving it aidor comfort, forfeiture of personal property,ten years in prison. jld.OVO fine and slavefreedoiu given.

4. Slaves of persons iu rebellion, or w hogive aid and comfort, who take refuge inour lines, to be held as war captives andforever after free.

5. All slaves deserted by their masters,or found at places occupied by our troopsto be free.

C. Xo slave escaping from one State toanother to be delivered up (except forcrime)unless the claimant swears that hehas not borne arms or given aid or coru- -

tort to the present rebellion.7. No person of Naval or Military au-

thority to set U()On the validity of claim-ants to the service of slaves, on penalty oldismissal from the service.

8. The President is authorized t evi-- ('

9. The President is also authorized toextend pardons, and proclaim generalamnesty to rebels as he may deem expe-dient for the public interest.

The Constitutional objections of thePresident to the bill passed by Congress

were obviated by that body adopting aresolution, as follows :

Resolved, By the Senate and House ofRepresentatives, lliattlie provision otthe third clause of the tilth sectiou of anact to suppress insurrection, to punishtreason and rebellion, to seize and confis-

cate the property of rebels, and other pur-

poses shall be so construed as not to ap-

ply to any acts done prior to the passagethereof, nor to include any member of aState Legislature, or a Judge of any StateCourt who lias not, iu acceptance, or en-

tering upon the duties of his otlices takenan oath to support the constitution of the

Confederate States of America,nor shall any punishment or proceedingunder aid act to be so construed as towork a forfeiture of the real etaU; of theoll'ender beyond his natural life.

That message has been published. In it

the President urged the following objec-

tainly not very satisfactory. Still theowner may not be thus engaged, and I

think a reasonable time should be provi-

ded for such parties to appear aud havepersonal hearing. Similar provisions arenot uncommon in connection with pro-

ceedings in rem. For '.he reasons stated,I return the bill to the House in whichit originated.

This looks as if there was going to be a"vigorous prosecution of the war" whereTope advances. Wo hope he will beatStonewall Jackson at his own game.

From the 24th Regiment.FLORENCE, Ala., June 26, 1862.

Chronicle Friends: You see we jog along;sojer chaps now days keep moving. After 1 joined niv regiment, our uivisionstood a week before Corinth, then into.through and beyond it. Then made aforced march to relieve Tope, who wassaid to be in difficulty. Then from theadvance we turned off via Jacinto on toluka.

I thought the other day I would haveto turn myself into a regular, ranting,

alolitionist, as I cannot disguisethe act, itself evident, that the darkieswe meet are more shrewd and intelligent

what you call "smarter" than thewhite folks. The fact is forcing itself upon the soldiery. It is an outrage uponthe common sense of an observant man,passing through this country, to say thatthe blacks here cannot take care of them-selves. Pshaw! if let alone I believe theycould run the "plantation" as well as theoverseers. Of course the war has drainedthe wayside of much of its best intelli-

gence, as far as the whites arc concerned.The recruits, Ilayward and Taylor, are

hearty and in fine spirits ; they are theright kind of stuff for soldiers, as is Mont--gomerv. Thev sav nothing can kill him,he is tough and wiry. I note also the goodhealth and behavior of Mowery and Gid-ding- s.

Rice had a bad cheek ; most well.Anderson was left at Pittsburgh Landing,somewhat ill, from where I suppose hewent home, as they grant furloughs to allwho ask, if anything ails them.

appearance, guns and equipments were I

not clean, pnd the general' apearancc ofthe men indicated the lack of the care...and iieaUicss. of winch everyshould be proud. This arose from thofatiguo induced by an active campaign.

Mark the cljauge. Every gun is in the!

nouncing it a "good time."On Thursday and Friday we enjoyed a

vLit from Gen. Gary, of Cincinnati. Yes-

terday, (Friday.) the brigade was march-

ed up to headquarters, where we listenedto speeches from Gen. Cary and ry

of the 01st Pa. Regt.. the ProvnstMarshal of Alexandria. Gen. Gary's speechwas an excellent one, and well calculatedto be alike pleasing and instructive.He spoke of the War as a war against Pop-

ular Government, and it originated inSouth Carolina; that South Carolina,weresheout of the Federal Union, whichis in itself, hostile to a republican from ofgovernment, that under the existingstate constitution, men can only vote forstate legislature, that all other officers,state or otherwise, arc appointed by thelegislatures; that no man can vote unlesshe owns at least ten slaves. Slavery mayhave something to do with the war, butonly as political capital in the hands ofthe Rebels, because Slavery and purerepublican government are incompatibleto the existence of each other. But the"irrej-iressibl- conflict" is still going on-an- d

this wicked rebellion must be putdown, even at the sacrifice of the rebel

Slavery. Traitors must bepunished, aud their property sequestrated,even to the "contraband, anil not pro-

tected and guarded by loyal soldiers.Notwithstanding the boys were kept

nearly four hours in position, they felt thatthe time was profitaplv employed.

The news from MeClellan is meager butcheering. That "reliable gentleman" in

forms us that we may expect soon to hearof the rapid advance of the grand armyupon Richmond, but then he is suclt areliable man that we always believe himwhen his intelligence is coufirmed by offi

cial dispatches.Although our loss was frightful in the

six day's fighting, and the base of operations is much farther from Richmond, therebels are very slow m proclaiming a victory, for they know and feel that theyhave been completely befooled and sadlyoutgeneralled, and that our "retreat" wastheir defeat.

The truth of the mat ter is, that McClell-an'- s

genius is too much for the bast of them,and they know it. Time alone will show

the immense advantage we have gainedin securing the James river as a jioint Tap-pu- i

We have now a front of only tenmiles, instead of thirty, flanked by theimpenetrable Chiekahoininy swamp on theright, and by our gun boats on the left,which the rebels admitted to be "equal toa whole division

We have gained a secure footing in ahealthy section, placing the "rebs" in a"critical position," and they have gainedswamps where we lost so many men by

fevers and ague.MeClellan has been strongly reinforced

by a heavy land force, and with Com-

modore Wilkes and his fleet ready focooperate with him, we would not besurprised to hear of stirring movementssoon. Gen. Banks, with his corps Tarmce,is at Warrentown, and Gen. Pope is rapidly following with his splendid army, andwe will soon hear him thundering awayat the gates of Richmond, Gen. Burnsideis rapidly advancing toward the rearof the "guard center," and in a few days,

the 'impregnable city" will be thorough-ly invested. At all events, wc are willingto abide the result. .

The health of our regiment is still excellent, and our men arc constantly return-ing from the hospitals. Every one is ingood spirits, and a willingness to performany duty that may be given us. Whatmay be our duty by and by, we do notknow. It is ruinord that our brigade goesto Washington soon, to relieve the onethere, when "guard duty" will be the order of the day. But then it is nothinbut runicr.

But if 1 do not close I will be too latefor the mail. JULIUS,

The Traitors.The correspondent of the Xew Hamp-

shire Statesman, among sketches of "InnerLite iu Washington"' gives th following: j

But the auction sale pertaining to theeffects of great men, which was on thewhole invested with as much cur.o-it- y asany of the season, was that of rebel Jew,Senator Benjamin. It was well knownthat Benjamin married a music teacherin Charleston, where he resided in earlylife, before taking up his residence in XewOrleans, and that after living with hera short time, she eloped with an Italianby the name of I'elini, and for some twen-

ty years lived with him in Paris, Bcnjiminin the meanwhile making jieriodieal visitsto his early love in her new abode, untilshe was induced some throe years since,to "bag and baggage," andresume domestic relations in this city withher "tir.t love."

To carry this arrangament into effectthe distinguished Senator took the ele-

gant residence which was erected by Com-

modore Decatur a short time before hisdeath. It is one of the first private resi-

dences in the city, erected under the di-

rection of Latrobe, the architect of theCapitol, at a cost of some &0,0lM) or $4i.-00-

He paid annual rent for thepremises, and the establishment w;is

expense fully equal to the orig-

inal cost of the building The whole fur-

niture of every kind, was brought fromParis. It was under such auspices thatSenator Benjamin and his truant spouseset up house-keepin- g on their "reunion"in this city. The course of true love, how-

ever, never did run smooth, and the Sen-

ator had only got well settled in domesticfelicity again, when hismusical mate, fickelas the wind, took it into her head or heart,as you may please, to transfer her domesticrelations back again to her long tried com-

panion in Paris. This last movement oc-

curred some two years ago, and shortly af-

terward much of "the most valuable house-hold furniture sold at auction. Tho re-

mainder of the effects have now been soldto pay the house rent.

Among the articles sold was a marblebust of Benjamin himself, a full lengthportrait of his musical spouse, and alsoone of like description of his wife's father.There was also nn excellent full lengthport rati of his wife's daughter, a beautiful girl, some eighteen years of age, whowas born soon after the mother took upher residence with Celini. This last portrait, and one of the trench hmpress, arein the highest style of the art ; oil paint-ings all of them." They sold for some $Pto $20 a piece, and were bid in by the auc-tioneer, who ha9 made a fortune in hisbusiness within a few years, and who hasone of the best galleries of paintings inthe citv. A Irench divan, purchased inParis at a cost of SoOOO, was struckoff toSecretary Wells for $70. Old family silver plate, of French patterns and of therichest quality, was sold in immense quantities, and for a song.

Senator Benjamin is a noted gambler,and waste I in this way the vast incomewhich nt one period he derived from hisnrofcssionnl practice. On one occasion.after obtaining $70,000 in a great caseasainst the celebrated John RandolphGrimes, lie sat down for three days to a"ambling table, and Slidell in that timewon every dollar of that sum from him

! Slidell is celebrated for his skill at thisbusiness, and has accumulated mucn ot

his fortune, it is said, ir. this way.

If the history of the men who are lead-

ing this assault upon the liberties of thiscountry could be spread out to the world,it would make it evident that they havebeon persons who "neitner feared Godn r regarded men." Jeff. Davis is wellknown not to be no pattern of morality,ns those in the city, who have been withhim in gambling debaucheries, with wineand women, not a biscuit's throw fromBrown's hotel, can well testify. It w:oonly an ordinary matter to see Floyd, whileSecretary, go into his office of a morning,trembling in every muscle with the

of delirium from the last night'srevel ; and open and intolerable weretho visits of Secretary Thomas to a hotelhaunt 011 Pennsylvania avenue, that hiswife was repeatedly notified, through themail, of her husband's disgraceful com-

panionship. These are facts, not to betor a moment called in question by thosewho arc at all acquainted with the life inWashington of the men to whom they ap-

pertain.

Hon Elisha Whittlesey.We are nained to learn that our distin

To avoid all misapprehension, I informyou after office hours on the 1st 111st.. I

retired to my rooms as usual, at Mrs. Hy-

att's, sat down two or three feet from thewindow with my back towards it, and be-m- ii

reading the "Baltimore Snn,' when I

found my vision was impaired soon there-

after. At ui- -t I supposed it arose frommv glasses, and put 0" another pair ofs)"ectacle, without any nPUiible altera-

tion. Putting my hand nporl my righteye, I found 1 could see nothing out of myleft eve, except a light and no figures.(11 a short time, however, 1 could not dis-

tinguish the rays of light."Mrs. ILilt'e.id kindly prepared a

poultice of slippery elm bark, which wasreplaced i the evening by substitutingblack tea leaves. The loss of sight otthat eye was sudden as the extinguish-ment of a candle. Ye.iterday limniiiig I

A Washington dispatch of the l?th,says: We have advices from WaiTcntontiMlay. The news just received that Geu.Hatch occupied Gordnnsville h:is createdgreat consternation among the leadingrebels in Warrenton, who had not theleast idea that Gen.

A dispatch dated Corinth, July IS, saysGen. Halleck has given up his commandof the Army of the South-Wes- t. Hisreasons therefor are not given in the dis-patch. It is, however, stated in m o herquarter, that he is to be located at Wash-ington, and have some supervision of ourarmies.

The army was represented to be in goodcondition, and with confidence nniin Haired in MeClellan. It is believed, however.that James River will be blocked by there bels nt the bhitts of Claremont.

The Richmond Enquirer of the 15th.appears alarmed at the order of our War

concentrating the forces ofMcDowell, Fremont and Banks, undercommand of Major General Pope, and re-

marks of tho latter that he is notoriouslyone of tins most dangerous of the Unioncommanders, an ottieer of great aetiv:tyand daring, and is very apt to do unex-pected things. It adds that the forayinto Orange county, and the destructionol'the railroad bridge over the Rxpidan.by the enemy, is u challenge on the partof Pope that our generals have now totake up.

The Enquirer commentingon the threat-ening aspect of MeClellan 's operation, sayswe must dig, dig, dig. or MeClellan willdig into Richmond. The spade can onlybe conquered with the spade, and theshovel will always defeat the musket.

Co!. Ritchie, in command of .1 regimentof loyal Indians, has reliable infoim itionthat Chief John Ross was about to jointhe expedition with some 1500 warriors.

A Memphis corresjiondent of the Chi-eac- o

Tribune, under date of July 1$, savs:Geu. U. S. Grant received orders last evening to repair with his staff officers im-

mediate! to Corinth and report to Gen.Halleck. The order did not arrive tilllate in the day, but Gen. Grant was prompt,his arrangements were soon made and hewas under way before ten o'clock lastevening. Gen. Hovey has command ofthe western district of Tennessee in hisabsence, and Gen. Thayer of the seconddivision. Rumors arc life here as to thccause of Gen. Grant's sudden movementCorinth-ward-.. The mt probable one ithat Gen. Halleck is about to visit home011 a snort respite, anil probably N ashuig-to-n

and that he is about to turn Viscommand over to Gen. Grant, m tho interior. Some are willing to go so far as tosay that Halleck is to lie made Secretaryof War. and that the present occupant ofthat distinguished posifim is to retire toprivate lite.

It is refreshing lo hear the harmoniousclear-ringin- g utterances of Governor John-son and Major-Gener- Wallace theone nt in the eh it, the other intho ui.l.r. i y. work. c rcUuvtug tho rebel-lion. Xo two men have a better right tochallenge attention. Governor Johnsonw:;s the first military governor aj poiuted,has been brought into the broadest audclosest contact with the spirit which animates the rebellion, and is characteristic-ally deliberate and sagacious in all of hisjudgments. Geiural Wallace, one olthe younger class of estern commanders, in the held from the start, with a ca-

reer of remarkable success and brilliancy.a model disciplinarian yet full of sympa-thetic fire, understanding thoroughly thesoldier's nature and how to sustain enthusiasm, he is as perfect an embodiment acan be tound ot the fresh, dauntless, prac-tical taivir faire which is indispensible tothe successful conduct of this great struggle. Both the governor and the generahave been, and we suppose still are, Democrats, and may therefore be presumedto be rather partial to slavery than otherwise. et speaking wholly independent-ly of each other, five hundred miles apart,the one from a civil poir.c of view, theother from a military, they both declare,with nn emphasis, that this struggle mustbe carried on with a strong hand, andwithout regard to what ruav befall slavery.The civilian savs : "The strong .arm ofthe government must be bared, and jus-tice must do her work. "We may as wellunderstand the fact first as last, and go towork rationally. If you persistin forcing the issue of slavery against thisgovernment, I say in the face of heaven,give me my government, and let the ne-

groes go." The soldier says : '"Oh, if 1

could get a little backbone into those whoare governing us. If I could but stimu-late them to the point of courage wherethey dare do their duty as our soldiers inthe field dare to march to the cannon'smouth, and could induce them to let us.make war, that is all I ask.
