Vailaadighams Fate
All great empires have their penal colonies—their
Au-traiias, St. He'ecis, Gni -mas, and Cayennes—why
ahomd Otioudouj be without one? B-.-hold the Dry
Tortigae—terrible name, suggestive of arid wastes of
sand, torturiug ibir*t, scant fare, apd hard labor in forti*
acsnons. HoretoJbre this hapless island has been peo
pled only by Dutch and Irish deserters, by recusant reg.
u'ars, and other such forlorn ctule. But, now it is to
be graced with a political prisoner, a man of note—
ViiLndigham, late member of C ingress, candidate for
G ever cor of Ohio, the King of Copperheads, the arch
traitor, friend Of peace, and apologist of the accursed ro
be.bon. S> rtins the decree of fue late court mar
u*.
Will the decree be executed ? Nay, verily; for tbs
dcurwea of the Yankee are no l*ke tbone of the Medes
vtd Persians Oa tho contrary, they alter, charge,
vary coatutrelly. Mutability is the distinguishing mark
X that unstable realm. A minority of the court, we
are told, were-iu fwor of sefedin ; the Chief of the But
Vjcuute, not to the Tortugia, but to a much worse
niice—to the starving and do*n-troddeu South; and
later joccuut* suv that His 5v-reae sud August M.«jeetv,
Abraham 1, iavor# this mi'.’gation, if smeh it may be
called, of the hat.h or.giaal se ate nee. Wo may, there
fore, expect to see Mr. Val’andighaiu on board the next
Sag of trnoe ivoat that comes to City Poin>; and have the
happiness of welcoming him to thus city ere the merry
month of May be past.
E.'vo this ia deubtfuL There U no more reason for
* eenulsg Vaitandigham out ui Yankee la: al, than Tor
•ending Hr. Old^ Vorhees, Mrdary, Seymour, of Con
necticut, or Benjamin Wood, who is about to revive the
Lu.li/ .V.ior, with the motto «,n its front of “ Peace and
Cat »a'.uiiot a L.bertj, Tho arrest of Vallatidighani is
a bold stroke of policy, to show, first, the power
and !b*»lessne.-i of the paternal government, ana, nest.
Its exceeding c mency. Tte head of the peace party ia
- knccked dosn »;>d dragged *.o prison, .he object being .
no to i; jure :he man in per JO.: or elate, but to temfy
ho* adnetenis by an exuiu.tion 01 what the government
dares to do e-intntue most prominent citixen in the 1
land. lie is uici by a Court Marital, a severe sentence
ia prone at c d upon him, and a great hue-audervu
raised. th. c, L ncoin, the Emperor and FatnOr of
h.s peope, st j in, re ei'e.J the jeutence 01 bant-h

Who does not appreciate the • d.<; of this strategic ox
bioiuouoi g'rwagtL. and lrraency? Evhry man ui the
Nurthia given to underhand that the Government is
not alraid to pumsa toe ma t influential cituins; but,
lest any should acctse it of tyraanv, all may see that the
Guverument i* uuwnheg to inflict punishment even
»:’i.ere the guilt of the traitor is un^aest oodL, Thus
the foea ol the Government are terrified, aud its fiitnd- '
furnished with au aigunien; to reps-i the accusation of
- ocverity.
Hence wt So not expect Mr. ValUadi0hum here._ '
arre*t aid trial have served to show him that his '
party is too »e«a to make sucoet.-lul opposition to Lin* !

these colt mo-, *ome raopth ago, he fiTa mi-taken ihe ^

»> personal indignities, which shoes the een-ibiiitie* of
thees who are nearest and (J-arest to him, without at all
binefi ting a pert; too timid to buaumUrn ends policy
too far in advance of the limes.
Such, w# fear, will be Vallandigham’a fate. He may
be of sterner stuff than we suppose; an 1, if released
Kit be impelled by the outrage be has Suffer'd to deeds
sad words loftier and bold.r than any hi**vtof<' re. But
the style and tenor of his protest and the feebl > defence
of him made by the Jf. Y. World encourage no hope
of lids sort. The chances are that he will subside die

%The Progress of Opinion.
In the adoption of tne !’.ug *e!ue:**d by the Provis
ional CotTgres' at Mon'goraery, Aid whici until three
weeks ago, was tbo ensign of the Confederacy, the ar
gnmeut tout kai m wt iufl waco wav that toe design of
« rase tabled vary nearly the 4‘K to which we had* been
•aoo-’tomed—“the Purs and Stripes." So, in framing
*.M Conailtnuon of the Confederate States, it was
taooght the fewer clung"* male in the Constitntion
*^at w* had been used to the better, and therefore we re
adopted it In aubatance. It was not then generally fait
♦hat the Flag of the United States was the symbol cf
tyranny and lawlessness, nor was it imagined to what
foal uses the Oonnitutiou could be perverted sad prpa
tinted. W sen the C-rtoaies first revolted against Qreat
Bria'n, the attempt was cirefully made to distinguish
between the Ministry and the King, and to throw upon
the former the odium of all the misrule and oppression
azperirnced. But our father* toon learned to hold the
King. the Ministry, the Parliament and the People in a
common detestation. W* have gone through a snail*r
profteee of opinion and feeling. What was at first an
animosity to the Abolitionists and Black Republicans
has become an abhorrence of the whole Yankee race, j
T*a flag that w* at first doaired to imitate as nearly aa
possible, * to the ayes of our whole people now the
a ret ba-efel of all that float over the broad earth; and
wa have adopted another purposely designed to be a*
■alike it a* pceaibU. No oca donb'a that the Conetita

*, The Yankee C^wri^e* -
L’ncoln’s organ at Washington, the Chronicle, has a
lvery velvety ankle on the law authorising the conscrip- j
Jm of the whole militia of the North. The law, it
ya, is misnamed a conscription aci; It should be named (
an enrolment or registry ac; it la intended only to as- i
certain what the military force of the country is, and ^
should be submitted to as quietly as the taking of th<}
ceosu*. It intimstos that It ia^uncertain wbtther the j
force enrolled will ever be onlled into service, and save
nothing about the glories of the battle field, and the d‘.
li^ht of dying for the coue'ry. The difference iu the ttjno
of kht organ Irom that held by the Press of the North gen
erally two years ago is remarkable, and can only aiise
from a ooiresponding change in public feeling. Then it
was a mad rush to arms with the people, and all was rant
and fu*y wiih the papers. Now the volunteers are all going ,
the other way, and the organ sees no chance to fill the
vacant places they leave in the army but by getting the
bridle of conscription on them in the smoothest and
gentlest manner possible. It is very much afraid the
thing can’t be done, and keeps a nervous watch leai the
wild horsee It would catch may wheel about aud throw
iheir heels in its fac*. We don’t think there is such
danger as the Chronicle imagines. Lincoln's su' j seta
are ready to be enro led, conscribed or anything else
he chooses. Submission is their habit and servility their
instinct. He need not fear.

'Congressional Election
All the present members of Congress from this State
are candidates tor reelection, except Mr. Holcombe and
Mr Cbambiifc>; and they all have competitors exoept Mr!
Bocock, and, we believe, Mr. Johnson. Mr. Hives will
be returned from the Uoicombe § District without oppo
•ition. Among Ibe candidates more recently announced
ire Mr. Kidwell, of the board of Public Works.in opposi
tion to Mr. Russell, Col. il. A Edmondson, as competitor
with Mr. Staples, and Col. Wickham aganatMr. Lyons,
fbe election takes pi ce Thursday the 2Sth instant.— i
It is on many accounts desirable aud important that the
vote should be as large as the condition of the State will
admit, and we therefore urge all voters, who can, to at
tend the polls and vote as their consciences and judg
mqpti prompt.
. The Enemy's Losses Again.
We gave yesterday, Irom the New Yoik Tune* of the
P;h, the enemy's 'oases in the Si, 6th and part of the
11th cofps, in the late battles, amounting to 18,064.—
Tne ILrald of the 12.h adds the losses iu the 12th
c trps 8,148, and in one Division of the 24, 1,380, mak
ing in all 17,551. There were1 seven corps engaged,
Eiia we have eomplcte return* from oniy three, leaving
two whole corps aud parts of two others to be reported.
From these data, the reader may approximate the losses
of the enemy in these great col diets. Our own conclu
sion is that they are as likely to be over as under thirty
thousand.
~ Mr.^CiitUanl
We desire to correct the report mentioned by us yes
er jay, in connection with this gentleman, so far as to
itate that ho- goes to Mobile without commission from
,he Q.ecu or exequatur from Washington, bat simply
rt the requse' or order of Lord Lyons, to look after
irity-h inters-1‘s ia that quarter, iu an unofficial way. Of
his we are assured by Mr. C. himself, who leave» the
:iw this mornteig. In the capacity in which be goes, he
will, we are sure, receive ftora the hospitable and pol
shed peoplr of Mobile tho consideration aad courtesy
o which be is entitled.
Mr. Staples of Montgomery.
It is due to this gentleman to state that be has been
on tinea by severe icd -position sfooe the close of the
ecent sess on of Congress, and therefore has not been
.ble to vifi' h-s constituents in the diffhrrnt counties of
he 12iu Cony' ej.-iou*l District. Dis illness was brought
in bv his untiring iudurtry aud seif-saenfieing devotion
o the Confederate cause, while in the discharge of bis
[titles a* ft member of the House of Representa'ives_
lis ability aud energy, together with the high and sp r
ted tote of h e legislative career, command the respect,
dmiratios and confidence of his constituents.

are to be allowed, after having been held underfoot so
lobg? Who knows that even this will be given them ?
Bo', l will not impeach in advance the ia*g*aoi;uKv and’

true of a great air.j of them, aud as J am convinced
that all such, in choosing between Mr. Goggin and CoL
Flournoy, iVsire to vote for the one most like(y to bw

The Atlanta Confederacy says :
We learn that a gentleman arrived here last evening,
quite recently from beyond the Mississippi, who brings
most cheering intelligence. The people of Missouri
nearly all have their bearta in the Confederate caure;
and though we have now po army there, tho Unionists
have found the ooantry too hot aud unpleasant lor them
to ttay in it, and many have moved.
Gen. Prioe has a large and entl usfkstlo army. The
people are everywhere flocking to LUr standard. His
pr esence gives confluence, apd bis very name Is a host.
He is on the eve ol most important movements against
the enemy, which will ti ll when made.
The report of Kiiby Smith defeating banks Is said to
be unirue— no such engagement having taken place.—
I Gen. Ta\lor ba*, however, been doing valiant service
against the Yankee operations In Louisiana. He has
defeated Banks in aeveral engagements, Und baa grea-Jy
check and retarded bis operations.
1 HI HltOHBOIHOOD OP VICKRBCPO.
Gen Joseph E. Johnston (Bays the Mobile Register of
the 14>h) is l>v thi> time at the theatre of war in the
neighborhood of Vicksburg. If the information will be
of any service to'Gen. Grant, and if it will improve the
morale of bis army to know that they have to meet
this master of the art of war, that are welcome to it.
If, ou the other hand the intelligence shbnld prove
agreeable to General Ro.-ecrans, and be £hould be in
duced to take advantage of his absence to attack our
fore's in Tetinesroe, be will theieby lay the Confederate
Cause uuuer lasting obligations and answer the earnest
prayer ot Gen Buxton iiragg.
- As to the situation of affairs on the “Big Black,” the
friends of Confederate Independence may take courage.
There is an uvalaucbe in preparation for Gen. Grant
which wilr make hiur rue the day he put his army on
this tide of the Mhuiisrippi river.
Upon the situation of affairs at Vicksburg, the Knox
! ville Register holds these cheerful views:
The condition of affairs at Vicksburg grows brighter,
if wc are not misled by intimations ot the Southern
f rees. Vicksburg cannot be reduced by famine till fa 1.
t supplies will last till November, perhaps. It happens
now that Grant’s army of ftO.OOO men can with great
difficulty be led. But few boats can pass Port Hudson
with supplier from New Orleans, and sull a smaller num
ber can get below Vicksbuig, aud hence Grant must
fight at ouoe. He cuinot stav where be is, and we can
lorUi? tae rear ol Vicknbuig [between \ ickvourg auu
Jackson,j mid fight when we phase. Wo have reasons
for iiicrt>a..ed coi.liJeuoe in our atreugcti on the Missis
sippi, wtiicli 4 may net he proper to give to the publiu.
Giant's am.j ciunot be led by the country it bolds, aud
he mutt light, aud secure a victory aud that speedily or
hs is uudoue. lie will soon find himself between two
fires.

tHX VAI.LRT or VIR0IK1A.
The Rockingham licautrr furnishes the annexed
particulars of a sharp skirmish at Fiskcr’a Hill^ near
Strasburg:
Our forces took lheir positions about two o’clock In
the a'ternoon, aftew seeiug the enemy preparing to ad
vance from “'flupp’S bill." The Yankees started off in
high feather, full of |ite, couscious of their superiority
io numbers to any forre wc had in that part of the Val
ley, and resolved t.» rna!;<i a great dash—a "jyaud
tiourish." Seeing the enemy ready to move, Major
Slyurs sent down eight cavalrymen, us “a bait," to at
tack the attcutiou of the enemy. The'keen eyjs of
the Yankees through their long range glasses, soon
described the few horeeicec we had in the road, and the
entire force thought they could certainly and eaaily
make a capture. So on they oitn*, their bugle sounding
the charge, and like a wbLlwind they dished up after
the poor unfortunate rebtls, whom they expected to
"gobble’’ un without ceremony. But they were doom
ed to be disappointed. Our men scampered off, the
Yaokees in close and hot pursuit. But, hark I Bang!
bang I bang !*go the Confederate rifles, and down from
their horses drop numbers ad the proud and vaunting
foef Finding such a terrible fire on tbeir flank, the
Yankee* beat a precipitate retreat, leaving their dead
and wounded behind. Thus the 18th Pennsylvania
CaTalry wi re a mbuahed,whilst the 18 h were defeated and
routed on op. a gnjoud The re-u t »i this little skirmish
was as follow*: Suit'd, wounded and prisoners nearly
one hundred; besides thiry horses ciptured, together
with their equipments, bciides a large number of sabres
and revolvers. They, however, *oon put their heavy
guns in position, to shell the rebels from the bushes.
Our boys sot befog greatly Lightened at the shelling,
kept their pjsitiqn for ball an hour, when they retired
before the advattfse of the heavy body-of infantry.

[SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE OP THE WHIG ]
Fredericksburg, May 16, 18C3. *
I send yon the following summary from the New York
papers of the 15th:
IBS ARMT OF THE J>OTOMAC.
No recent movements are rcportad from Hooker’s
army. Toe Btrald't Washington correspondent says
it waa stated that previous to (ailing back Hooker held
‘a council of wgr of the corps commanders, and the re
sult waa the retreat across the Rippabauaock. W. h
this statement in view, the public will be surprised o
learn that four of the qlx General* present ur»ed upt u
Hooker an immediate advance upon the rebel army;
only two in favor of recrossing the river.
C.ITICISMS or THE TRIBUNE
The Tribune condemns Hooker aa "a failure,” and
aaya be has not advanced since be retreated with a lar
ger army thau the eutuny alter lotting 17,000 uieu. It
is equally severe against ttionemai, and contend*that
be accomplish* <1 little or nothii g, having ecancly dam
wg'-d Lee’** principal lilie ol com uumcaii ju at all,* and
ocrtniuly not interrupting it for twenty lour hours.
THE PEACE MOVEMENT.
The Herald alluding to the Peace Movement says
‘‘the chief organs of the radicals in mis city came out
fiercely against the peace movement, callu.g a conven
tion of the Dtmooraisof NtV York Slate to take raeas
ureWto put an end to the war. We should like lo
unow whit is the difference between Fernando Wood
and his taction calling lor peace and Horace Greeley and
bis faction doing the same thing. Almost every body
it in iavor of peace, the terms are the only quest ion.—
No matter how long the war lasts, peace must couie in
the end. For any one, therelore, to declare for peace
is like a man pronouncing in lavor of the rising and
setting of the Sun, the tiuw and ebb of the tides, the
sucCi --lou ol seasons. At the present there appears
little likelihood of peace, yet the war cannot go on lor
ever, add must have -a termination when one or the
other of the beiigeients ir (airly exhausted, and has
come to the conclusion that kue further prosecution of
hostilities will not pay.
SBE TAkLANDIGHAM AFFAIR. - *
