CONDITION OF SENATOR DOUGLAS
At a late hour on Saturday evening we
learned that Senator Douglas's condition
was regarded as more favorable, though
no marked change had taken plage since
our last issue.
Later.— Throughout yesterday and lost
evening, there was no change to note In
Mr. Douglas's condition, Ids physicians
deeming the chances against him, and yet
deriving a faint hope for the bes*, from this
prolonged struggle of the strong constitu
tional powers of the patient with maladies
tinder which long ere this ordinary sys
tems must have given way.
FAIRFAX COURT BOUSE.
The little affair at Fairfax Court House,
Virginia, yesterdoy, wherein a troop of
eighty dragoons liadja brush with fifteen 1
hundred of the ardent sous of tho chival
rous South, is probably of no great conse
quence in the present operations; but for
the rebels it has that significance that even
the most rampant, fool-hardy and drunken
of the lot cannot overlook. It will teach
their boasting of their own prowess,
and the poltrooning of tho Government
forces, or as they delight to call them, the
“minion hirelings'’ of Lincoln, is a fatal
mistake which no amount of lying can un
do. The swashbucklers who have enlist
ed In the ruffian army, laboring under the
delusion that the loyal forces would throw
down their arms and run off at the fire of
the first gun, will find even in this small
matter food for many a bitter reflection
on their ignorance and folly.
WX&CONSKN CURRENCY.
During the past ten days repeated in
quiries have been made of us,'by parties
living in lowa, Wisconsin and Northern
Illinois, whether or not it was safe to sell
produce for Wisconsin currency. In an
answer to these inquiries, and also for the.
general information of our readers, we ap
pend a list of the Banks of Wisconsin now
received by the bankers at Milwaukee,
With the circulation of each, and the value
per dollar of the bills, according to the
market price of the securities in the hands
of the con ptxoller of the Stale on the 20th
of May. By reference to this list, it will
be seen that the value of the currency gen
erally ranges from 51 to 85c. on the dollar.
There are a few banks ranging from 00c. to
100, but these, it will be seen, are of lim
ited circulation, and we understand their
issues rarely if ever see daylight Few, if
any of the Banks redeem their issues in
coin or exchange, and in this respect they
sire no belter than the Illinois hank bills—
now known as “ stamp-tail,”—and hawked
about our streets at or about their real
value.
Such, therefore, being the case, there is
no reason on earth why Wisconsin cur
rency should not share the same fate as
that of Illinois. Both are frauds on the
community, and were gotten up by heart
less speculators, without the remotest in
tention that they would ever redeem a
dollar of the stuff—and our advice to all is,
to take it only at its real value.
It may ho said that if the people have
confidence In it, the currency will continue
** to go; ” but so far as the Northwest is
concerned, Una “confidence game” is
** played out” It was tried here by almost
every merchant and banker in the State—
agreements, contracts, and compromises,all
things were tried—bntinvain. WalcrwlU
find its level, as did Illinois currency; and
the same inexorable law will work out its
results in regard to that of Wisconsin. At
present, in view of the scarcity of good
currency, the bankers of Wisconsin are
moving heaven and earth to get their cir
culation into the' hands of the people; hut
it is up-hill work. The people of Illinois
repudiate it, and sell only for gold; and
their neighbors of Wisconsin, lowa, and
Minnesota are getting hungry for some
thing that is worth one hundred cents on
the dollar. Produce brings gold in every
market of the world, and there is no rea
son why the farmers of the Northwest
Should continue to take paper money
worth only from fifty to seventy cents on
the dollar.

THE BiLTmOBE CASE.
The Chicago Time s is exceedingly ap
prehensive that a military despotism is to
be established in this land, because Gen.
Cadwallader arrested a traitor at Bald
more, confined him in Fort McHenry, and
refused to give him up in obedience to a
writ of habeas corpus, issued by Judge
Taney, of the U. B. Supreme Court
The fears of the Tima are probably
not bo much aroused in view of the
alleged'danger to our civil institutions,
as by the prospect that a conspirator
against the ' Republic will be hung;
because it must know that the pow
er exercised by Gen. Cadwallader is sanc
tioned by the Constitution and by the
practice’of the. Government' from the
days of Jefferson’s administration down
the present tima ‘ln 1806, Gen. TVil
hin&on caused the arrest of certain traitors

times of emergency, was by it considered
as sacred as tbc law of the land.
During the u Whisky Insurrection,” in
1764 and ’95, Gen. John Hamilton, then a
man of distinction, and afterwards a mem
ber of Congress, was arrested and
in prison more than three months; yet,
during all that time, obedience to the writ
was refused. The arrest and subsequent
incarceration were solely by militaiy au
thority. But, though the man was inno
cent, no one thought of .making his case
the subject of loud complaint As some
times happens between the citizen and the
Stale, he suffered because circumstances
beyond his control conspired against him. •
We cited the case of Gen. Jackson, yes
terday. He set aside the habeas corpus
twice—once against the authority of Judge
Ilall in Louisiana; and subsequently
against the authority of Judge Fromentin
in Florida. The decision and energy dis
played by the old chief on these occasions,
and the acts themselves, have been the
subjects of great praise by all his
friends; and we have yet to know
that, as civilian or commander, ho ever
acknowledged that he had violated the
Constitution which he had sworn to de
fend. But, as the Times has no admiration
of the Jacksonian policy, in rebellion
against the authority of the laws, we may
may pardon it,-if it cannot commend his
acts. Its murmurs are consistent with its
antecedents and secret hopes.
The four cases that we have cited, and
the comment that they provoked from
jurists and statesmen at the time they oc
curred, would completely justify Gov. Cad
wallader in the policy that he has pursued,
were not the situation itself in which he
is placed the only justification which his
countrymen will desire. Wc commend
the Tima to the study of the history of
the subject. It will find that what Jeffer
son approved and Jackson practiced, can
not he far wrong, even though it should
hang half the traitors of Virginia, those
who emigrated to Chicago, as well as those
who remain at home.
Sale of the Times.
The proprietor of the Chicago -Tuna—C. H.
McCojmick—announces in his Sunday's Issue
that he has sold the concern to W. T. Story,
of Detroit. He confesses that the paper has
been a failure in his bands. “The course of
things,” he says, “has been such fhat he has
felt powerless to accomplish any good.” We
presume, that he means he has not been able
to render the secessionists any practical or
available service, though his Times has worked
for them as hard as he dared to risk. Seeing
that he can do them no farther newspaper
service, he sells out the concern in disgust
and despair. The paper can not have fallen
•Into more disloyal hand*. It is to be hoped
that its new proprietor will put it on the
Union track—not hypocritically but honestly
and earnestly.

The EogUab Government*
The proclamation of Victoria’s ministers
strikes gloomily on the ears of Americans,
coming so soon dftcr the warm and hearty
■welcome lately given to the son ot England’s
queen. The people of Great Britain were our
guests in the person of their trfture sovereign,
and right royally were they entertained. Nev
er in the whole history of t national intercourse
was there so splendid an instance of the ob-
U-Lr-n of former wrongs. Never did the rep
resentative of a foreign power receive an
ovation so cordial and so spontaneous. Little
did we then anticipate such a return. Little
did we think that a rebellion, the most insane
and causeless in the world’s history,would call
forth only a proclamation of cold neutrality.
Not one word of sympathy for a friendly
government—not one word of stem rebuke to
treason.
Flag Presentation at Egypt*
On Friday the ladles of Carbondale, to the
number of a hundred, visited the camp at
Anna, and presented to CpL Lawler’s regi
ment a handsome silkbanher with the assu
rance that these troops, now accepted for the
war, would cany with them their own prayers
and. hopes,* of which this flag should be the
ever present symbol. The party returned by
the afternoon train, and the regiment was
drawn up on each side of the track to cheer
than as the cars moved away from the sta
tion.

Tlie EUarcrortli Obßeqnles at Bryan
Ball.
Yesterday, Sunday afternoon, tookplacc the
Ellsworth obsequies at Bryan Hall, Inaugural- j
ed and very appropriately carried out by the !
members of the original Chicago Zouaves, and ;
participated In by a very large share of our
community, frr in excess of the acconunoda- ‘
lions ol the Balk But for the wretched con* ■
dition of the interior of National Hall, which ;
has not been cleaned for months, and the add- !
ed disadvantage that it has no seats, both of ;
which render it in its present condition un- j
suitable for a Sabbath afternoon service, It
would have been far better to have used It on
this occasion, since probably not one-fifth of
those who delred to be present could obtain
admission to Bryan Hall. It was filled long i
before the hour for commencing the exercises
arrived, and even the space reserved for the j
military was invaded, filled, and packed, half
an hour ere the procession arrived, so that
but fer the strict reservation maintained for
the Old Zouaves on the platform, not a single
military organisation as a whole could have
found admission. As it was, the other com
panies, aside from the Zouaves, were only rep
resented by stragglers, most of tho rank and
file declining to attempt the pressure with a
very “ forlorn hope ” of getting in at that.
The interior of the Hall was appropriately
decked with the American flag, a very large
ensign draping the desk. At Sp. m., the hour
for opening, there was very little sitting or
standing room vacant. The audience in char
acter well represented the living Interest all
classes of our citizens take in the pres
ent war, and especially in an occasion in hon
or of one known to so many here, the first vic
tim to rebel hate In Virginia.
A profound impression was created as the
old Zouave corps, now a broken and faded
remnant of its- former glory entered the hall,
bearing the splendid SSOO stand of colors, won
in the Piize Drill 0f1859, and borne by them
in their great excursion. -The corps took
their place assigned them, at the cast end of
the platform.
The exercises were prefaced by the Light
Guard Band, also the companions of the Zou
ave excursion, who played on this occasion
the “ Ellsworth Requiem,” a piece finely exe
cuted cn this occasion and doing great credit
to A J. Vans, Eeq., the Leader of the L. G. B.
Wc learn that it is in the press of Messrs. Root
& Cady and to be shortly issued by that
House.
Rev. Dr. A- D. Eddy read an appropriate se
lection of Scripture and followed with the
opening prayer, A hymn selected and circu
lated among the audience on a printed pro
gramme was then sung. Prayer was .then of
fered by Rev. Dr. Tiffany. A second hymn
was sung,
“ I 'would not lire always, I ask not to stay.”
The discourse was delivered by Rev. Z. M.
Humphrey, pastor of the First Presbyterian
church, and was a highly interesting and im«
preserve .sermon, from a passage in Corinthi
ans, —perils among false brethren,” The
preacher related briefly and powerfully the
leading incidents of CoL Ellsworth’s career,
and paid an appropriate tribute to the worth
and services of thcyoungofficer. He referred
to his own former relations to the then com
mander of the Zouaves, on the occasion of the
illness and death of a younger brother of Cob
Ellsworth who as our.citizens well remember
died at the Zouave armory.
The instances cited by Rev. Mr, Humphrey
abundantly attested the affectionate brother,
as the records now made up show him him to
Lave been a loyal and loving eon of parents
now childless. Said Cob Ellsworth to Rev.
Mr. Humphrey In 1559, on the occasion of
officiating at the brother’s funeral, “We had
hoped, my brother and I, to have secured a
home here in Chicago, where our parents
could pass with us the evening ef their days,”
How entirely, alas, has that filial hope been
disappointed.
The preacher dosed with a fervent and elo
quent appeal to the soldiers present, and to
all, to be faithful and true to their county, as
their first duty to make their peace with God,
and there await his behest.
The exercises were dosedby.the singing of
the hymn “America” given out by Rev. Ed
ward Anderson, pastor of Calvary Congrega
tional. Church, Carvillc, who also pro
ucunccd the benediction.
. The whole a flair passed off in a manner eu
tirdy creditable and appropriate.
Tlio CMcaeo Light Compa*

• This fine Company of 120 picked men, com
manded by CoL E. Taylor, have well occupied
the interim of several weeks since their en
rollment, with a systematic and thorough
preparation for camp and field service, from
which advantage .of leisure given them, and
so used, they leave to-night for Cairo, with
probably by far the best outfit of any compa.
Ny any of our State troops have possessed in
going into service.. Their tents are of the
very best description, of the French Crimean
pattern, and the men have practiced them
selves In handling these and their other camp
equipage until they arc very proficient and
expert in these respects for raw troops.
They have a fine b|ttcry of six pieces now
in Cairo awaiting their arrival, and nntil then,
these are in charge of a squad seat do wn some
days since by CoL Taylor for this purpose.
The uniform of the company Is the Cadet
grey, with red corded seams to indicate the
artillery branch of the service,- They were
got up by Messrs. Titsworth of this city.
The company of course do not know what
duty will be assigned them at Cairo, but from
the position of matters there, it seems likely
that they will be sent to the Missouri side.
They leave at 0:40 p. m. by the Illinois Central
railroad.
A New Militabt Forage Cap.— One of our
Chicago citizens, the well known hatter, J V IL
Loomis, in Larmon Block, South Clark street,
has just invented a style of military cap that
is pronounced by military men who have seen
it, the best now In use. Mr. Loomis origin
ally ordered them made for him for the Stnr
ges Rifles, and the New York manufacturer
reports that large orders for this cap have
come in upon him from those who have seen
samples of this style, which Mr. Loomis terms
the « Forage Cap.” It may be best described
as resembling an ordinary.felt hat,therim dish
ing deeply, turned downwards behind and cut
away from side to aide in front where a neat
leather visor is substituted. Thus the neck
and head are well protected, leaving the front
clear and unobstructed. The appearance of
those we have seen worn is such as to com
mend this style of cap for looks alone, while
it has many advantages. Hr. Loomis has al
ready received large orders from onr State
troops at Cairo. They will be sure to take
wherever -introduced, os very nearly combi
ning the the utilities of cap and Havelock.

OUR CAIRO LETTER.
The Fortifications and the Guiu—Present Ifili
tary Status—Health of the Men, etc., etc.
[Correspondence of the Chicago Tribune.!
Como, Friday, Slay 31.
At List wo are able to see just whit oar
much talkod-of fortifications will amount to.
There have been so many plans and to often
changed withal, that if people at a distance
have been confused about it, we have been
confused as well But all the propositions for
running cross levees, for filling up between
the levees, as well as for a permanent fort of
of stone and brick, seam now to be absorbed
in an earth work redoubt, which will be all
sufficent lor the presert at least. The re
doubt is located upon tilt 'te of the distil
lery, which the Government . d condemned
and removed Its height is aome seven
feet above the levees, and its
inside extent 84 feet , by 180.
The bottom of the old distillery cellar is
what military men call the terre plane of the
fort; the surrounding walk, seme three feet
higher this and twenty feci wide, forms the
banqiieiic, upon which the gnus ore being
mounted; while the breastwork is being
thrown up outside, seven feet higher thin this.
An immense amount cf dirt is required, but
now that the river has fallen nearly to low
water mark, there is a sufficient- supply to be
get from the flats all around the redoubt,
where hundreds of men are constantly at work
with shovels and barrows. The num
ber of guns in the fort will be three
33-pounders mounted on pivot carriages along
the banquette on the. South side; three 24-
ponnders on selge carriages, ranged upon the
sides of the fort; the 8 inch
ing aCB pound shell; and the 8 inch mortar.
A magazine of timber and Cieclnes, to be cov
ered with earth, is being made upon the terre
plane in the rear of the guns. The pivot guns
arc eo mounted as to have a range of about
100 degrees each, and they will thus sweep the
whole riverfront To-day the 7th (CoLMor-
Can’s) reniment volunteered its in a
body, and officers and men are cheerfully at
work together In the trenches. Heavy timbers
for the gun floorings have arrived, and the 33-
pounder at the southeast comer will be in po
sition before evening. The two remaining S3-
. pounders will be mounted In like manner to
morrow. It must be borne In mind that the
“ big guns ” that have been mounted arc only
the 24-poundere, which, being field or siege
pieces, do not require such elaborate prepara
tion before they can be of service. When
complete, this redout will bo able to sink any
fleet that may venture to approach from the
South, and every situation available for a hos
tile battery is easily within range of its guns.
Besides the strength of the redoubt, there
are the fourteen brass six pounders winch we
have had all along, and the twelve pound
mountain howitzer. Two or tbree of these
smaller pieces have been taken to Bird’s Point,
for the Missouri troops, and they will give a
good account of their stewardship of them.
The camp on the Missouri side is well en
trenched and well defended. It is com
pact in itself, and all the arrange
ments for guarding it ore complete.
It is an error to suppose, as many people
doubtless do, that CoL Schuttner’s regiment
is actually located upon a point around which
the Mississippi river turns. The “ point ” is
a mile and a half below their camp, and a di
rect line across is only two miles, from where
they arc, while the river circuitis seven miles.
As before stated, and often staled, an at
tacking force wonld land under cover of the
woods, in the rear of Camp Stephenson, and
as there la no battery on tnte side, the only
protection is found in the largeeconting parties
constantly on the lookout. A battery will be
needed at this exposed point, unless what
would be far better, our troops are appointed
to take possession of Columbus. Ky., which,
if held by a strong force, would save Cairo
from its daily alarm. It may be considered a
weakness in ns,'but nevertheless it must'bo
confessed that these alarms ore renewed daily.
The steamer Cheney,plying between Cairo and
Columbus, is our only communication with
the South,and when its trips are irregular, we
arc thrown into quite a spasm, lest it has been
helu back in order to keep ns Ignorant of se
cession movements. To-day the Cheney has
not arrived, and the old fear seizes ns. The
Cairo coal boat, which may be described as a
great flap-jack propelled by steam—has. just
been chartered'by Government, as of possible
usefulness in transporting troops. It can easi
ly carry five hundred men on its broad ex
panse of deck. Of course you will say no at
tack is likely to be made, but please to remem
ber that we are net only within reach of such
a contingency, but are also enshrouded In
complete Egyptian darkness as to general
movements outside.
Appropos to the military condition of Cairo,
is the condition of the military themselves.
A more fearful .enemy than cUarrhms, er even
than a hostile force, has appeared la the form
of - typhoid fever I The resident physicians
had warned our military .surgeons from the
first that this disease is usual in the summer
months, though not appearing eo early as
this. To-day Dr. Sim informs me that he has
two or three well marked cases now in his
hospital, and that otherpatients are beginning
to manifest the same symptoms. The pres
ence of the disease is an alarming fact, and
the more alarming since it is likely to work
an entire change in the hospital treatment
required for even otherwise trifling cases.
There is not, probably, in the whole Missis
sieelppi valley a more unhealthy place than
Cairo. Twice the much dreaded yellow fever
has first appeared here, and from here gone
Southward. The changes In temperature are
sudden and marked. Tn the same day, and
in like manner on succeeding days, on op
pressive lieat is followed wiltdn an hour by
a chilling cold which has twice this week made
fires essential to in-door comfort. The Camp
Is thus beset on every band by dangers which,
to be guarded against, require & competent
medical head, with the intelligent co-operation
of every soldier. Both, these conditions are
now lacking. There is no medical he id: and
the devoted services of Drs. Sim and Haven
are embarrassed if not rendered nugatory by
the restraints constantly thrown in fheir way.
Of all the military surgeons hero these gentle
men have, against obstacle] both painful
and embarrassing, labored with the greatest
success, and it must be confessed, alsojthcy
have been the most roundly absurd. Their
Sosition is uncertain, and dally a source of
ispute. Notwithstanding explicit orders to
the contrary, the sick men of the camp come
to them for treatment, and are never turned
away, although the hospital requisitions upon
the commkariat are denied or honored accord
ing to a fickle caprice. The treatment of these
gentkmcn is all of a piece with the policythat
has In every other respect so effectually
snubbed Chicago. And ft should bo added
that they remain, albeit against their own in
clinations,{in obedience to what has teemed to
them and their friends as an urgent necessity.
Their departure would be lamented by all the
troops, as a calamity that, under present cir
cumstances, would be quite serious. S.

[Special Dispatch to the N. Y. Tribune. I
Washington, May 30.—The first invoice of
Virginia proptrty received at Gen. Butler’s
camp consisted of eight packages. General
Ashley was detailed to examine and report.
“What are you going to do with us f” the
negroes asked.
Gen. Ashley—We shall not harm yon.
Negroes—we know that, but will you send
us back? We want to know, because if yon
don’t, our friends will follow. Theyjwalt to
learn how we are treated.
Gen. Ashley—l have no authority to act,
but you may be sure that yon won’t be re-
your masters for twenty four hoars.
At this, about 200 volunteers, who had gath
ered about, from various regiments, and all
parties present, dapped their hands and cheer
ed, showing tne sentiment of the soldiers.
Gen. Ashley then examined the eight separ
ately, and seemed to understand their situa
tion. and to feel as with one of their number,
an old Methodist dass-leadeiv who .said that
they Were like the children, of Israel in Egypt,
they knew that deliverance was “gwine to
comebut how, was not so clear. But the
war was something towards it. They had
awaited quietly since September, “ when we
made up our minds that the North waa too
strong xor the South.”
“Who are ‘we’?” asked Gen. Ashley.
“Masters and slaves, both,” was the reply.
The next day, according to their prophecy,
forty or fifty more came into camp; and these
“Volunteer Virginians” continued coming,
until Gen.' Ashley left. An examination of
these confirmed the conclusions respecting
the knowledge of the negroes that something
was going on which might inure to their
good, and they determined to seize the op
prrtonity.

The number of rebel troops at Harper’s
Ferry is estimated at 8,000. This includes all
within five miles of the railroad bridges.
These are ail equipped, with the exception of
1,000, who are but partially supplied with
aims. At least 4,000 of the men have only
flint lock muskets. The bulk of their men
are encamped on the heights west of the vil
lage. Theybavc a battery of two six-pounders
and one 02-pouuder, all on the Maryland
heights. Thev have lourbatteries overlooking
the bridge and from three-quarters of a mile

teries consist in all of one 64 and five 33-
pounders.

go to Fort Monroe.
There are numerous batteries in course of

Washington, June 2,1561,
The steamers Ana costa and Freeborn arrived
here lost night from Aquia Creek. They re
port another engagement on Saturday after
noon with the rebel batteries at that pfecc,
remounted during Friday night. The Pawnee
joined them in the attack. Twelve Federal
gnus played for four hours on the rebels and
again silenced the lower batteries, and de -
etroyed the bridge across the creek, the depot
end wharf. A huge number of shells buret
right amidst the rebel artillerists, evidently
causing much havoc.
The upper battery could not be reached by
.the fire from the vessels. It consists of three
rifled cannon, which threw a large number of
shells and shot, five of which struck the Paw
nee ; five the Freeborn, and three the Ath
costa, doing slight damage only. Two were
wounded on the vessels. The Freeborn and
Anacoeta will be armed with rifled Dahlgrcus
and return to the scene of aciionto-morrow.
