My waiiiiiig to the Iicniucrat.s of tho North
west to arm and prepare for trouble, (written May
tlth) was i-cti inHio too soon. We have already
experienced in this city, the necessity for adopting
measures for sell protection.
When the news arrived here last week of Han
cock's temporary and partial success, tho Aboli
tionists wore jubilant, and, when soon alter, Stan
ton's dispatch was received, announcing a "jjmit.
victory over Lee. and the latiei in full retreat on
Kicliiiiond. with (irant in vigorous pursuit," their
exultation knew no h unds. They gathered in
noisy groups on the street-corners, proclaiming their
purpose to "now dispose of the rebels at home."
Strong in the power of numbers, and confident of
mipport from the soldiers, many of whuui wore
uroiind the city, they eomninced their cowardly
work by an a--ault on John S. N'cwhoiise, F.rj t pu.
lice Commissioner, who. was being severely handled
by a riillian named ilough, backed by a gaug of
soldiers and eili.ens.
This ii IV. i r had hardly passed over. when anoth
er gang of lh"-o rascals atiacked William F. Sto
rey, editor of Ihe Chicago Time, knocked him down
in the strut by a cowardly Mow from behind,

of "pitching into'' the 'fiincs i, lice;- but from this
th" crowd prudently desisted, contenting themselves
with venting all manner of epithets at the "rebel
organ,"
Fortunately for the peace i f the city, the violence
of the mob spent iiself in theso assaults. They
soon became aware that in tho next attack the as
sailing party wool 1 not get off scathlcss. The
good of the eiiy. an 1 the future peace of this com
munity would peih.ips havo been subserved had
these assstili s been repelled on the spot. Hut those

"ek. Y'ou never hear of llieiu making an attack
oil Ilcmocrats 'Ml any thing I ike equal terms. They
never attempt it. due cs-c of severe punishment
would have a wonderful effect in repressing any
nimilar attempts.
Since the allair in question they have been tnar-
Veloiisly quirt. 'Iheiicns you see has lint been
favorably, I.iv's retreat and ti rant's vigorous pur
suit" have .roved to be only another of Stanton's
pleastit iui cntioii-. We arc beginning to under
stand these tilings out here. These delusive dis
patches are designed for ctlect. This much we do
know, that the government is telegraphing daily to
hurry up the bundled day men! Chicago is down
for three regiments, and so far they have not even

havo matched your baru hrrasts ugain.'t hit iron
clads and proved victorious in tho contest. Y'ou
have drivoM his routed columns beyond the Missis
sippi, although fed by rciiilorccmniite of Ireih
troops, while many of your gallant comrades were
withdrawn toother fields. The boasted fleet, which
lately nailed Iriiiniphaut over our waters, has lied
in dismay after destroying guns and stripping oil
artnnr in its eagerness to escape you. Like reere
an knights, the iron clads have (led tho bi Id, leav-

The devotion and coiistaney you bava displayed
In this pursuit hsv" never boon surpassed in the
annuls of war, and you. tiara removed from tlm
( "iilederato soldiers the reproach that lie could
will buttles but could not improve victories
Along u hundred miles of bin path tho flying
foe, with mora than savage barbarity, burned every
house and village within it roach. You extin
guished the burning ruins In his base blood, and
wire nerved afru.-h to vengance by the cries of
women and childreu left without food. Long will
tha ucciirscd raco miiouibcr the great river of Tex

bid water has a darker tinge from thel iljerul tniiture
of yankeo blood.
The cruel alligator and ravendous garfish wax
fat on rich food, und our native vulture holds high
rfvulry over many a festering corpus.
If tho storn valor of our well-trained infantry
wast illustrated on tho bloody fields of Manslield
and rieasent Hill, this long pursuit has covered
the cavalry of this army with unyiug renown.
Like generous bounds with thtt game in full
view, you bavu known neither hunger nor fatigue,
and tho hoarse cannon and the ringing rillu havo j
replaced in this stem chase thu sonorous horn and
joyous halloo. Whether charging on font, shoul
der to shoiiUer with our noble infantry, or hurling
your S'tiailrous on the masses of the foe, or hang
ing on his flying columns with more than the te
nacity of the Cossack, you have been admirable in
all. Conquer your owu vices and youcao conquer
the world.
Our artillery has been the admiration of Ihe ar
my. Itildly advancing, without cover, against
the heavy metal of llio hostile fleet, uiilimboriug
often without support within range of musketry, or
remaining last on the Held to your grape and can
ister into advancing columns, our batteries have
been distinguished in exact proportion as opportu
nity was afforded.
Soldiers! these aro the great and noble deeds, and
they will live in chronicle aud in song as long as
the Southern nice exists to honor the earth. Hut
much remains jot to do. The fairest city of the
South languishes iu the invader's grasp. Her ex
iled Hons mourn har fate in every land. The cheeks
of her fair daughter! jot mantle with the blush
raised by the brutal Tyrant's intuit.
Soldiers! this army moves towardi New Orleans,
and though it do not reach the goal, tho hearts of
the patriotic woman shall sound high with joy, re

A late writer, speakiag of parents, says that
when they spend money judiciously to improve and
adorn the house and the ground aruund it, taey are
in effect paying their children a premium to stay at
homo as much as possible to enjoy it ; but that
when they spend money unnecessarily infinecloth
ing and jewelry for their children, thy are paying
them a premium to spend their time away from
homo, that is, in those places where they can at
tract Ihe most display. There is both truth and
philosophy in the statement. If parents expect to
shield Iheir children from tho vices of the world,
they must make home attractire to them. A cheer
ful and happy hope is one of the greatest safeguards
a parent can throw around his child.
Funeral oftien. Polk.
The funeral of the Christian warior and patriot,
Lieut, lien. Pelk, says the Augusta Constitutional
ist, took plaee iu this city this morning. The
malencholy interest attaching to the occasion, drew
together an immense throng of people, and ihe
streets, as the solemn procession passed, were tilled
with subdued and saddened spectators. The heat
ef the day was tempered by clouds which veiled
the sun and rendered it much loss epprcssira
Places of business were generally closed during the
march of the funeral cortege.

gallant Commodore Tattnal iu tha procession.

There was a good deul of exeiumeiit at Hamilton
during his l-lay there.
The tltli Ohio regiment, Outline (irevs, f Ciu
einnali, arrived hero to. day to be muston-diiat ol
the rertioe. A good reception was given theui,
VHllniidig' aiu made his appearance at the lu
mocratio district convention held at Hamilton to
day with apparent surprise to a large portion ol 'the
assembly. Ho was received with great enthusiasm.
Ho spoke briefly from a wtitlen document narra
ting his urrost and defending his action.
Ho said the usseiTioii ol the President that he
was arrested because he labored with souiii effect to
prevent tho raising of troops and encouraged de
sertion from Ihe army, or had disobeyed or failed
to counsel obedience to lawful authority, was abso
lutely false.
He appealed for proof to any speech ho had ever
made, aud to the record of tho military commission,
be trial aud sentence of which he was banished.
The tub- Wlonso laid lo my charge wits words of
oriliuiaut of lksMoJ'1'1" policy ol the Administra
tion, addressed lo polillceb met tttigs r inv follow
oltisous. For morn than ene year no publio mu
had been arrested no nenunper suppressed with
in the Sfate fpr expression of uldie opinion, wiiilo
iiuudreds iu public assuiuhles aud through the press
with license and violence In which I never indulg
ed, uiticised and cotidomued the acts and policy of
of Ihe Administration, have denounced the war,
and maintained even Ihe propriety of recognising
the Southern Confederacy.
I do not mean any longer lo be Ihe only aian of
the parly who is to he tho victim of arid rary pow
er. II Abraham Lincoln seeks my life, let him so
declare, but he shall not ngaiu restrain lue of my
personal liberty, except upon due process of law.
He denounced Oeneral Order No. :is, under which
ho was arrested; sai l it was against thu Constitution
and laws, and without validity, and all proceedings
under it were null and void. The timo has ar
rived when it becomes me, as a citi.rn of Ohio and
of the United Slates, I" demand, and by my owu
acts vindicate, the rights, liberties and privileges
which I never forfeited, bill of which, for so many
mouths, I have been deprived, lie reiterated his
right to critiei.c the acts of the Administration,
cautioned his political friends from any nets of vi
olence on his account, but advised none to shrink
from any responsibility, however urgent, if forced
upon thrui.
Yullaudighatn was accompanied to the depot by
au enthusiastic crowd, and arrived at Ibiyton to
night, where it is understood he will make another
speech.
Vallaiidighaui arrived at half past live, and pro
ceeded immediately to his residence. There was no
demonstration. Humors are current that soon at
ter his arrival he had taken the uigbt train for Tole
do, but subsequently announced that be would de
livered a public speech to-morrow.
There is considerable apprehension of trouble at
Ilaytoti, and the people are very much excited.
I, ale News from Chattanooga and the
North.
From the Memphis Appeal.
The postponement of the Chicago Convention
until Ihe 2'.llh of August, is considered as a tri
umph of the Valtandigham-Wood, or peace faction
and the defeat ol the MeC'lellan party. The object
of the national committee was unquestionably to
await the sequel ef Grunt's campaign. If he and
Sherman meet with decided success, the conven
tion may promulgate a platform pledging Ihe party
to a universal amuestv to the rebels and nominate
some man who has lioen idonlilitd with tho war.
If Grant is not positively or apparently successful,
they may adopt straight-out peace resolutions and
make the tight on a candidate who bas consistently
opposed the war, and the first act of whoso Admin
istration would be a proposition for an armistice,
with a view In final separating:.
The New Y'urk Tribune's special l'otomac corres

' A ffWfftmpFi'y' T'epuTTe.r wi'C alosToT
IttO prisiouers. Hy strategic movements they were
driven into the federal rifle pits aud compelled to
surrender. On the 2Jd Gen. Wright, with the tith
corps, by a movement on tho left, reached the Wel
doti railroad and doslroyed five miles of il. The
lies were burned, and the rails warped so Hs to be
useless.
A special to the Times says that on the afternoon
of the 21th, Lougstreet and Hill wereiuoving toward
Weldon, having vacated their entrenchments in
the federal front. A few prisoners were captured,
from whom it was lcariad that llciuregard's main
force was crossing to Petersburg, aud Lee's was
moving to the lelt.
A Washiugtou dispati-Ui dated on Ihe 27th, states
that it is supposed that the question respecting the
$.1110 exemption clau-c, upon which tho House nou
concurred with the Senate, will he settled by a
committee of conference.
A Washington correspondent of Ihe 2'.th states
that the Federals now permanently hold the Pe
tersburg railroad south of that city.
The rtth army corps had a severe engiigemeut
with Hill's corps had drove them back sevrcal miles
aud now hold the railroad and iutronohed position.
On the 27th the rebels charged the lfith army

400 deserters came in during the action,

A Hay of I'eace.
The happiest augury of peace which the tele
graph wires have flashed to us for two years, is the
action of the Democratic Conventions of Kentucky,
Ohio and Illinois. They haw sent Delegates to
tho National Convention with instructions to rote
for a peace platform framed upon tho principles of
Long's speech. At last, then, the banner of truth
is being lifted orer the heads of a people who have
been staggering in passion, blood and darkne for
threo yearsi Oh! that precious banner! if the
Chicago Convention but havo tho illumination
and tho courage to lift it up and plant it as their
rallying point in their coming struggle with their
enemies, our euetr.ie.4, the encu ies uf freedom and
of humanity.
Mr. Long, of Ohio, was the brave and sagacious
man who, like another John the Baptist, came be
fore to herald tha banner of peace. Pointing it out
to the great Democratic liabel of tho North, con
fused of tongues aud blinded of passions by Ihe
cunning of its adversary, he proclaimed in lute
oiio tiiicss. He told bis auditory that that great
speech was well pondered in a month of prepara
tion. Was it not the well-considered voice of bis
party at the time, and Mr. Lung the honored and
chosen instrument of reachiiig a new and life-giving
political gospel to a grout party reft and scat
tered hy tho storm of war It bore these marks

We are equally of opinion that on tin v platform
having a single war plank in il, their chances ure

Mr. Long's speech as the guide for the principles
it shall put In issue before the North, we have no
more doubt of its triumph than wo have that (lens.

Several days since Major Ganenil Steedinan,

t'ol, Wntkins. Col. Wnlkius was orderud to pa

was scut into Lufuyctto, in thu n unit of lirig. Gon.
Gideon J. Pillow, deuuiiidiug uu immediate sur

town in case of uon-i-ompliaucc. The rebels wuru
it.UUO strong and had the lowu comidetelv surroun
ded. Col, Watkius returned the soniewhut pro
fane, but expressive reply : "Hum Ihe town and he
d d." Iu ubout twenty minutes thereafter, Ihe
rebels tu de au advance from all ilirei lions, t'ol.
Watkius' men were dismounted and occupied the
court-house, it nil three or four houses adjacent,
from which Ihoy poured a destructive tiro into the
foe.
For more Ihan Ihrco hours the enemy slowly but
surely advanced. At nearly nine they occupied
three fourths of the town, whcnCol. John T. Crox
ton, of tho lih Kotiliicky, sent out in that direction
the day previous by Gen. Stcodnian, arrived Iu the
neghhorhood, and, attracted by tho tiring, "wont
in," and Gideon J. P., "went out." The gallant
Kentucky boys rushed 'on them with a yell and
whooa, capturing about seventy und peppering
them uniuerciliilly at every jump, Too much
praise cannot ho bestowed on Cu, Watkius and bis
glorious four hundred for Iheir dogged resist
ance against the grmtly superior lumber
pitted. We feel like complimenting Oil. Croxtou,
who is always on Ihe lookout for a light, en bis op
portune arrival at the scene of action.
Col. Watkius lost about lifly killed, and perhaps
as many were wounded.
Giileou left ono hundred dead ooturades. We
have already stated that about seventy-tire were
captured.
Gen. Slcedinaii has directed a vigorous pursuit,
and has taken measures, which, it is hoped aud be
lieved, will, make Gideon wish ho was somewhere
else iu a ditch of his own digging. If he dotit loek
sharp or boys will dig one for bun.
Wo regret to learn that Col. Faulkner, of tho 7lh
Kentucky, was captured in the attempt to make a
charge.

Twe ears ago we drove the rebels out of the en

now all occupied by thu rebel Gen. Forrest. Im

quered Ihe whole of thai region :it is now almost en
tirely iu rebel hands. The same laimiuer despe
rate bailies were fought at Corinth, Iuka and Hatch

but every one of those is in utidiaptited possession of
the enemy. Iu the lull of the year, lieu Grant oc
cupied Lagrange, iu Tennessee, Holly Springs and
Oxtord in Mississippi, mid the crossing of Y'occonoy
river some twelve miles south of Oxford, while his
cavalry was thrown forward neurly to'Gronadu:
tho whole of this tcritory is now abandoned. At
the same time our forces held possession of all the
