FALLING BACK*
A dispatch from Ironton, Mo., announces
that Gen. Hardee has fallen back from
Gr« cnville to Eeve’s Ferry, sixteen miles
Si-ut hof his former position, where he Is
fortifying. This does not look like a
speedy capture of St.Louis. Ifthereport
c-d movement of Hardee is confirmed, Me-
CVtloch's northward movement will re
ceive a sudden check, inasmuch as the
progress of either wing of the rebel army
dc perds upon the progress and support of
lie other.

BELL BEN IN EUROPE
The- exaggerated aud distorted accounts
oi the Bull Bun affair published in the
English papers, have doubtless done the
National cause considerable mischief. But
wc- must not place too much reliance on
the effect produced by those first state
ments. The subsequent reports modified
the impression very much, and the peo
ple of Europe have discovered before this
time that the Federal arms met with mere
ly a check, and not an irretrievable dis-
aster.
The London Times seems to he the most
hostile and violent of the English press
against the American cause. It is employ
ing all it-6 power and influence to help the
rebels and injure the loyalists. Its shafts
are specially directed against the antici
pated American loan. Its columns team
with cautions to European capitalists,
vramirg them to touch not the Yankee 7
per cents on their peril, and charging that
cur Government is wholly unworthy of
credit cr confidence. Its readers will have
occasion to think otherwise when they
learn the action of American capitalists
who so promptly subscribed one hundred
and fifty millions to carry on the war. By
the lime this Government will need to offer
xts bonds in European markets, there will
be plenty of takers in despite of the
venomous tory Times and its backers.
SECESSIOH SKBSPiPBES.
The popular indignation against seces
sion newspapers has become so hot in some
parts of the country, that the people have
summarily abated several of them. In
other instances the tory editors have been
tarred and feathered, and made to kneel
down, make a regular confession of their
cTc-rce sanest the national cause, and
swear that they would never again write
acainst the Eepublic, or publish articles
in fsver of secession or rebellion. .
I,; the. city of New York, the Grand
,Ti ;y presented hills of indictment again*
three secession sheets, viz; the Journal of
C . . the VaUy Kcwt and theXtoy
B -'k, which had keen guilty of daily
pleading the cause of the enemy, misrep
resenting and rillifying the Government
of the United States, exaggerating all tmfa
roraile intelligence and laboring to the
iti most of their power, to dishearten the
friends of the Union, and strengthen the
hands of rebels.
The P. JL General issued the following
order concerning those papers:

We commend to the reading publican
aiticle found in another column from Ed
ward Everett, on secession newspapers
in the North. Mr. Everett is known to he
one of the most conservative, prudent,
cautious men in America. He asks, “why
“should those treasonable journals be al
“ lowed to diffuse their poison, and mislead
“and dishearten the people, and under
“mine and break down the Constitutional
“ Government?” “We ought to remember,”
he says, “ that in tolerating a traitorous
“ press among ourselves wc practice a lib
“ eralitj which awakens no gratitude at
“ home, and is never reciprocated by the op
“ posing partyHe declares, with emphasis,
“ that it is an absurdity in terms, under the
“ venerable name of liberty of the press, to
“ permit the systematic and licentious abuse
“of a Government which is tasked to the

words.
FROM NORTH CAROLINA*
The Loyal Sentimmt in the Old North State-
Formation of Union Lodges—A Union Brig
edc Enrolled—Provisional Government Con
templated.
[Correspondence of the Chicago Tribune.]
Hillsboro, N. C., Aug. 7,1561.
No dcuht many of your readers would be
gratified to hear from North Carolina, and I
am, therefore, induced to write you a few lines.
Thank God! the Union sentiment “still
lives,” in spite cfCalhounism, under the guise
of secession and an affected devotion to
“Southern rights,” to crush it out- Thc-re are
yet thousands oi loyal men iu this good, hon
est, conservative old Commonwealth, who
will never cease to believe with Clay and Web
ster, to whose teachings our people have ever
reverently listened, that their allegiance to
the Union framed by our fathers is first and
highest. This State, like Kentucky and Ten
nessee, w»s Whig, aud its population are thor
oughly imbued with the truthful and saving
tenets of that giand though now shattered
party. The notions of South Carolina nulli
fiers and dieorganlzers never found favor
smong North Carol ini ana. They have stood
by the old landmarks of sound government
and correct political theory, notwithstanding
the defeats and humiliation of later days,
which have now unhappily culminated in a
threatened disruption ol this great Republic.
For five years past we have groaned under the
miserable heresy of secession, which is the
legitimate result of the doctrines of John C.
Calhcun, and hie broken the holy bond that
made u* a constituent part of the American
nation. It has broken it, I say, but I trust
not entirely or forever, for our citizens are not
all traitors, or even a majority of them. As
you knew, we are overawed and silent for the
present; but “truth crashed to earth shall
rise again,” and our liberties, though [now
temporarily subverted, are destined to a res
urrection.
The Union Lodges now extend over all the
State, and are fast increasing. Many cf our
first men, whose Jnames are not unknown to
the national car, are numbered among the ad
herents of this degree of loyalty, The organi
zation is necessarily secret, because free
speech is not allowed by the usurpers who
tyrannize over us. But we have already spoken
to the country. i«.nd to the minions of Jeffl
Davis, in the election of loyal Congressman
who will take their seats at Washington in
December next, and then speak for themselves
and their constituents in no equiocal or timid
voice.
A brigade of loyal North Carolinians has
been raised in this portion of .the State,
and their services will be shortly tendered to
the Federal Government, to add in suppressing
this most unholy rebellion, which, is aimed
no less at our .own dearest domestic rights
and privileges as freemen, than it is at the
National supremacy. The tender will bo
made through that gallant and heroic cham
pion of the Union, Coh Foster, a man who
shrinks from no responsibility, and whose
heart knows no such sentiment as fear. The
country will owe him a debt of gratitude for
efficient aid in crippling the most unhallowed
insurrection against good government ever
known in history.
A provisional government, similar to the
one established In Western Virginia, will be
set on foot before many months, and Its insti
tution will be hailed with loud rejoicings by
the oppressed and outraged people of the
whole State. Our people never voted in favor
<f secession. They recorded themselves last
February by a majority of two to one for the
Union and the Constitution. Last Hay the
State was rushed out of the Union, just after
the secession of Virginia, by a convention of
traitorous demagogues, who perpetrated upon
us a coup d'etat of most reckless and unblush
ing audacity. The ordinance of secession was
never submitted to the people. Bat the day
of reckoning is coming, and a sure and swift
punishment swaps the miscreants who have
conspired to despoil us of our freedom. Give
us your prayers and sympathy In our efforts
; for deliverance. R. S. M.

{From the Philadelphia Bulletin, S3d.]
Three men, -named Thomas J. Carson, Wal
ter W, Kelly and Wm. M. P-egram, were
brought to the city last evening, from Harris
burg, cy Detectives Taggart and Franklin,
end Deputy U. S. Marshal Sharkey. They are
suspected of being spies, and were arrested in
Harrisburg, on Wednesday last, upon their ar
rival from Chambersbunr, a dispatch announc
irg that they had passed through the lines at
Williamsport, Md.
C«3 son is about fifty years cf age. He was
formerly a broker inNcw York, but for several
years has been residing in Baltimore. He
owns property in Virginia, and alleges that he
has been there in relation to it- Among his
propeity is the Montpelier Farm- Upon bis
person was found a pass from Gen. Cooper, of
Maryland, and also a pass from the rebel Secre
tary of War, permitting him to visit the South
tut excluding him from the camps.
Ft gram is about thirty years of age. He
also oelongs to Baltimore, and is very frank
!n all his statements, Ee says that he has
been on a visit to his father and mother, who
reside in Virginia. When about to start, Fe
gram states that the wife of a captain in our
army requested him to at certain something
about him, as he had cot been heard from
fijrce the battle of Bull Bun. Fegram went
to Richmond upon this errand, found the cap
tain there a prisoner, and intended Informing
his wife of the fact. While in Richmond, he
was requested to carry some letters North,
and these letters were found in his carpet
bag. These were addressed to Judgeßrewer,
at Annapolis, George W, Brewer and Mrs. M.
Humphreys, at Baltimore. Upon examina
tion ttiey were found to be from J. W. Brewer,
of the Washington. Artillery of New Orleans,
and contained principally a description of the
ba’tle of Bull Run.
Kelly is a young man, apparently not over
thirty years of age. He claims to be a British
subject, and, to substantiate his claim, pro
duced a passport signed by the British Consul
of Baltimore and countersigned by the Secre
tary of State, His valise contained nothing
of a suspicious character. Hia person was
i closely examined, but, apparently, he had no
papers about him. He bad taken off all his
dotting, except his undershirt.
The moment of suspense during which Mr.
Kelly stood thus before Me curious captors,
must have been a rather agonizing one. But
fancy hi* feelings when tfie officer remarked
eomelhing peculiar in the hang of the shirt,
and fancy them when he was ordered to take
it off He trembled and turned pale, and his
bare knees shook and knocked together. He
could not endure the stock to ms inodes tv;
be called for water; he was on the point of
Cdnlixg. But the officers were inexorable.
The clurt came off, and the treason as well as
the person of Mr. Kelly was laid bare. The
Ehlit was a marvel of ingenious needle work,
having various well-concealed pockets, in
which were found numerous letters from the
South; seme from men in the rebel army to
their friends in Baltimore; others to men in
Kew Tort, and a number tor Europe. In ad
dition to this, there were various bills of sale,
dated at Richmond, for pork and other arti
cles, and large package* of money, principally
In notes or. banks In the Confederate Slates.
All oftnese articles, says tie reporter, were
done up in neat packages, and looked as if
they had been subjected to the pressure of an
byon'ulic press.
Among them were drafts amounting to
about SIOO,OOO, drawn by parties in Richmond,
principally upon New York bankers. One
"draft alone was for $55,000. They were made
payable to tie order of Carson. Tne letters."
were ail sewed up In tie false pocket.
In addition to the drafts found, the prison
ers had upon their persons about SS,OOO in

before the U. 8. Commissioner.
FROM LONDON,
The Battle of Bull Bun, and its effect upon Eu
ropean Rations—The Question of the Blockade
—The Effort to Break Dorum American Credit
in England—Banger from France.
pT. T. Times Correspondent.]
London, Saturday, Aug. 10,1881.
The sews of the battle of Bali Baa came
down on os like a thunder-clap last Sunday.
Extras were hawked about the streets that
morning, containing a telegram of the blackest
description-much worse than the newspaper
accounts of the next morning justified—and
the consternation among the loyalists was
very great. Subsequent advices somewhat re
lieved our alarm, but only increased the sense
of shame and mortification; and Mr. Bussell’s
letter in the Times so brilliant, so lifelike, and
yet so humiliating, gave the last blow to our
wounded national pride. Of course the very
ability of Mr. Bussell’s description increased
the bitterness of the punishment, and caused
great indignation: Yet I confess that I can
not see the justice of the anger that would
punish him Lr telling merely what he saw.
[He did not see. rd.] if it was so—we ought
rather to own np fairly, and to see that such
a disgrace never occurs again.
Of course, the first thought after the reali
zation of the strength of the blow, was what
would be its effect on European nations, and
particularly on England. That it could not
but be very bad, every one knew, and we were
not slow to feel. The Tunes at once came out
in a tone so needlessly insulting and so wan
tonly malignant, that no one could doubt any
longer, even if there had been any doubt, on
which side its sympathies lie. One can bear
with Hr. Bussell somewhat, for whatever hot
headed people may say. Us letters bare been
active agents in our tavor here, and his influ
ence has been thrown generally on our side.
But it has uniformly been in spite of the con
troling influence of the journal itself,and its ed
itors, it is said, do not hesitate to call him an
Abolitionist of the deepest dye. This time
their bitterly, unfair attack was so flagrant as
to call out the protest of at least two of the
liberal papers, which commented in the warm
est style on the language which the Times
need.
Us course is more likely ultimately to react
in cur favor here, than to hurt us ; aud in
throwing off its mask, it has partly destroyed
its own power for evil. The English Govern
ment docs not often act precipitately, and it
.is not likely to do so now. Of recognition of
the insurgents there seems no present danger,
but it is net so certain that this check will
not encourage the cotton Interest to make an
effort to set aside our blockade. After all, the
action of England will depend on events. You
on the other side of the water will be able, to
predict it before we can, the war
progresses well or otherwise. As yet, howev
er, no one knows of any Intention of this Gov
ernment to interfere with the blockade. It is
certain, or so near certain as anything can he,
that the British fleets are ordered to respect
it faithfully and without cavil or quibble, any
statement to the contrary notwithstanding,
and if the time shall come when this rule will
be broken through, the British Government
will do it with its eyes open as to the conse
quences, and will hardly venture on the step
without the assistance of France.
Another piece of engineering against us is
also evident in the columns of the Times and
elsewhere. It has been very plain here, for
some time past, that a systematic effort was
being made to beat down our credit in the
money market. The daily papers are begin
ning to teem witn money articles, leaders,
chance paragraphs, all tending to represent
our credit as good for nothing, aud thus to
drive us out of th&market, ana leave us at the
mercy of a few rich and powerful Jews. As
usual, the Times is conspicuous in this attack
ako, cf late its money articles have con
tained systematic and transparently inten
tional misrepresentations and falsifications of
our whole past financial history and present
condition. The hand of Mr. Yancey and his
friends is also evident in this work. Their
energy has been stimulated by their late
success to fresh efforts here, but in general
the move seems to be a merely financial
one, and those are principally at the bot
tom of it who expect themselves to get
the loan into their own hands. The defeat at
Bull Run has, if anything, rather overdone
the thing, even from their point of view.
For the moment our credit is nowhere, and it
would be useless to attempt to raise money
here now. until oar armiec hare recovered the
ground which has been lost.
Nor have we anything better to expect from
France. Accident and a more cautious mode
of action has placed France in a better posi
tion before the Americans than England has
occupied; but I have strong reasons to believe
that we have really fewer friends there than
L ere. Hi-it- at least we have a party, and an act
ive and respectable one, who comprehend our'
position, and will do all they can to sustain us.
it Is not so on the other side of the channel.
Their sympathies—so far as they are really
engaged in our affairs—lie on the side of their
relatives in Louisiana. In England the recog
nition of our insurgents would create a strug
gle that would inevitably overthrow the Min
istry. In France the Emperor has but to say
i the word, and the whole nation would acqui
esce, as it always does. That he will say that
word aS soon as England does, I have as yet
heard nothing to make me doubt.

Pabis, Friday, Ang. 9,1861.
Adversity makes enemies. Everybody now
finds a kick lor the defeated party at Manas
ess. In all, or nearly all, the accounts that
are sent to Europe of the deplorable affair, the
North is talked of as a used np and defeated
party. In Europe, so much is thought of the
first battle of a campaign, that whoever gains
it is regarded as the probable winner of the
last. The journals are not sparing in their
taunts, but none of them quite reach the
crushing irony of the London Times, in its is
sue of Wednesday last It is a well-known
fact that people prefer to read attacks rather
than defences of a cause, whether good or
bad; and on this account the public in France
and England have been fed lately almost en
tirely on falsehoods and sarcasms against the
North. 'With the noise, therefore, that
has been constantly made against the
cause of the Union, it is not sur
prising that, we hear now of Bourse
reports, both here and at Loudon, to the
(.fleet that the Southern Confederacy
has been recognized by France. The re
ports are absurd, of course, but they are val
uable indicts of the current of events. The
friends of the Union, strong in the justice of
their cause, have tbken little pains to stem the
tide of misrepresentation and abuse which nas
been poured forth lately through the European
press, to prejudice antipoison the public mind,
for they felt that the Union army at a proper
time would give a better reply to all these
slanders than any they could make. The
affair at Manassas has now placed a new arm
in the hands of the Southern party and their
colleagues, the European haters of Republi
can institutions, with which to attack the
Union party. Fortunately, we have the most
positive assurance that the Emperor of France
is determined to stand a neutral observer of
the fight till it is finished, and one or the
other party renounces the struggle: and since
that is all fee Government of Washington
asks of him, we cannot see any occasion for
alarm or uneasiness as to the recognition of
the Southern Confederacy.
It is to England that you must look for dan
ger, not on the subject of recognition, for that
only occupies secondary ground, but on that
cf cotton and the blockade. If Now Orleans,
Mobile or Charleston be not opened by Jan
uary to the exportation of cotton, you will
have trouble with that power. And if Eng
land sees herself obliged to n revoke further
the displeasure of the Mends of the Union,
ahe wm see that it Is'her interest that the
Union ir permanently dissolved, and crippled
in ell its parte. The London paper* are boldly
discussing this subject of the blockade in. con
nection with the next cotton crop, and what is
more significant still, Englishmen in this quar
ter no longer disavow the sentiments of their
papers as not being those of the English peo
ple. We already know what the sentiments
of the English Cabinet are ; If the people of
England only half-way sustain the Cabinet, the
question is decided against us.
Would it not be strange if yon could derive,
all the way from Paris, the plan and campaign
cf Jeff Davis and his Generals? One of tae
Paris correspondents of the Independence
Beige, who is evidently in relation with the
Southern agents at Paris, writes to his paper
since the Manassas affair, among other things
relating to that event, the following:
“By private letters from America relating to
the terrible fight at Manassas, we learn that the
Confederate Government is not disposed to com
promise tie finite of its victory in assuming the
offensive against Its beaten enemies. It will con
tent itself with guarding its extensive lines of de.
fence, and will only decide upon a diversion on
"Washington in case the National Army shall at
tempt to penetrate the Southern States by the
Ohio and loisElShippi.” „ _
Since the article from the Journal dee Debate,
which I sent yon ten days ago, that paper has
published two other articles on the American
question, both against the North, and both
very ably written. We may, therefore, class
the Orleanist paper among the converts which
the Southern agents have been able to make
to their cause. The Pairic has also lately gone
over to the enemy, while the Conetituiionnel is
also there, not from orinciple, but because ac
cident has placed its American columns in the
hands of Louisianian and a secessionist. To
these three journals may be added the legiti
mist and Catholic sheets, the Union, the Monde
and the Gazette de France who oppose the
North of course, because they detest free in
stitutions and republicanism under any
form. We can only claim now as decided
ly curs the Opinion Nailondk, the Siedc and
the Pres the three liberal and democratic
papers ci Pari*. Fortunately they arc the
three papers of Paris the moat read, and we
can well afford to see the IWrie, the ConsiUu
tiwncl ard the Journal dts Delate, Bonapartist
and Orleans sheets, join hands under the
slavery flag of Jeff Davis with the ultramon
tane and reactionary sheets, like the three
cited above. Things have at last found their
pioper level; the company is now properly
sorted i we have the Emperor and the liberal,
progressive Press; they have fallen Into com
panionship with the monarchical, astl-repub

CHICAGO, TUESDAY, AUGUST 27,1861.
FROM WASHINGTON.
Washington, Aug. 24,1881.
It bas been ascertained that the late with
drawal of rebel troops back to Centreville was
in reality a stampede of eleven regiments, wh©
took a fright, and abandoning everything, run
for the rear as fast as they could go, and until
daylight revealed to them the fact that there
were no Unibn troops following. They had
been impressed for two or three days that
they were to be attacked, and hearing some
firing of pickets In the fronton Monday night,
the main bodies at Vienna and at Fairfax
Cour* House scampered away in hot haste to
Germantown, at which point the roads from
the two places come together. Both corps
conjectured themselves to be flanked, and
sent out flags of truce to arrange terms of
surrender.
THE REBELS AND NON-COMBATANTS.
I learn that the position of the Quakers of
Loudon county, as non-combatants, has not
been respected by the rebel troops. Though
they have not attempted to press any of them
into the rebel ranks, yet they have not hesi
tated in taking from them horses, wagons,
provisions or anything that they required for
the subsistence, transportation or comfort of
their troops.
The following communication was received
tc-day by Gen. Mansfield:
General Hospital, Georgetown, Aug. 31.
Sib: I have to report that Cant. Thos. Mcße-
Titt, Company A, Second Excelsior Brigade, died
in Hospital to-day, at 12 o'clock. He wishes to
get a free pass for the purpose of taking his body
to New York. Yery respectfully,
The communication is signed by the Assist
ant Surgeon, whom it is needless to say is an
Irishman.
GEN. SCOTT’S COACHMAN.
The day after the battle of Bull Bun, Peter
Eganolf, Gen. Scott’s coachman, crossed into
Virginia to exercise the horse of a member of
Gen. Mansfield’s staff. He was not heard of
afterw aids, and, it was supposed that he had
voluntarily gone to the enemy, A gentleman
who arrived yesterday from Richmond, via
Aquia Creek, informed Gen. Scott that Egan
olf had incautiously but unwittingly gone be
yond our lines, aud was surprised by the rebel
pickets. He at first refused to tell who he
was, but at last disclosed his position, and the
capture so much elated the rebels that they
sent him on to Richmond, where he is now
employed cooking for United Stipes prisoners.
BIT) FOR TTTTC RETR-PT-S.
The greatest activity prevails in the depart
ment cf the Provost Marshal. So well in
formed is he of the movements of secession
agents in this city, that scarcely any informa
tion of a trustworthy character now reaches
the rebels in Virginia.
To day, a resident of this city, named Don
nelly, who was In The rebel ranks at Bull Bun,
ventured to come to Georgetown. His arrival
was expected, and when he reached George
town he was at once arrested.
Yesterday, two canal boats, loaded witL salt
and flour at Georgetown, and which were con
signed to some point in Northwestern Mary
land, was seized and held. It is believed that
their ultimate destination was across the Po
tomac, in the vicinity of Harper’s Ferry.
From ‘Western Virginia—Skirmish at
;Eawk’s Neat.
[Correspondence of the Cincinnati Commercial.]
Clarksburg, Va., August 23.
We have been in a state of expectation for a
fortnight, and are yet waiting for orders. I
have no explanation to offer for delaybeyond
that previously stated. The reasons, no doubt
sre sufficient. We had orders to move at day
light yesterday m«miDg, but they were coun
termanded, and our camp still rests on the ar
tificial b’uff above the railroad depot.
Gen. Rosecrans received a message last
night from Gen. Cox, reporting a ekirmisn
near Hawk’s Nest, eight miles above Gauley,
on Wednesday. Cox’s vanguard were barri
caded in the road, and were attacked by a
strong detachment of rebels, who
were icpulsed after a sharp fight,
and driven back some four miles. The ene
my’s loss is reported fifty killed,'with only
one missing on our side. Thera is no doubt
about the tight and retreat of the rebels, bat
the mortuary statistics are a little dubious. I
made up a telegram for you giving an account
of the affair, but further advices having been
received at Gallipolis, my dispatch was re
called, and another was sent from Gallipolis
to the Associated Press. The foregoing re
port was received from Gen. Cox, and is,
therefore, reliable.
A violent secessionist, named Hickman,
was killed by one of our troopers, 15 miles
below here, Wednesday. He had been mis
. chlcvoue, aud his arrest was ordered. Upon
being discovered, he fled and shouted' to the
trooper to “shoot and be d d.” The
trooper fired, and the rebel died.
Another of the same stripe, named Marsh,
was killed In a similar manner, on the same
day, below Buckhannon. The latler was a
well known rebel spy.
Edward Everett on Secession News*
;papers in the Sontli*
[From the New York Ledger.
At the present time, those citizens in some
of the border States who sympathize with the
Confederates think it hard that they, cannot
be at peace and at war, in the Union and out
of It, at the same time. They claim the pro
tection of the Constiutioa as in a time of pro
found peace and universal obedience to the
laws, while they render secret, and, when cir
cumstances admit, open sad to those arrayed
in arms against them. They assault the forces
moving to the defense of the capital; they
convey supplies and arms to the enemy; they
recruit his ranks openly and by stealth, and
to effect these objects they sometimes avail
themselves of official position and authority
derived from the government which they as
sail ; and when that government, in self de
fense, interferes to arrest these treasonable
movements and machinations, they clamor
that the liberties of the citizen are invaded.
There are presets, for the most part in the
border States, though some of them are found
in cities more remote from the scene of action,
which are daily pleading the cause of the enemy ,
misrepresenting and villi tying the Govern
ment of the United States, exaggerating every
article of unfavorable intelligence, and exert
ing themselves to the utmost to dishearten
the friends and defenders of the Constitution
and the Union. But such is the all but super
stitious devotion of the people to the liberty
of the press, that these pernicious journals
have, with the exception of a single instance
in St. Louis, never been interfered with. It
seems to have been thought better by those in
authority to tolerate the mischief of those un
patriotic presses, than to elevate them to great
er importance by prosecution, or to encroach
in the slightest degree upon the freedom of
public discussion, which in ordinary times is
justly regarded as one of the greatest safe
guards of liberty. But it is preposterous to
sacrifice the end to the means. We
should in this respect learn wisdom from the
enemies of the Union. While we regard as
unbecoming our Christian civilization that re
sort to lynch law, by which every expression
adverse to the popnlar sentiment is sup
pressed In the seceding States, we ought to
remember that in tolerating a traitorous press
among oursdves tre practice a liberality which
awakens no gratitude at home, and u never recip
rocated by the opposing party. It is, in feet, an
absurdity in terms, under the venerable name
of the liberty of the press, to permit the sys
tematic and licentious abuse of a Government
which is tasked to the utmost in defending Vie
country from general disintegration and poiitical
chaos. The Governor of Malta was once cen
sured in Parliament for some alleged severity
towards the editor of a journal in that island,
and the liberity of the press was declared to be
in danger. The Duke of Wellington said he
was as friendly as anybody to the liberty of the
pre ss in London,bnt a free press in the island of
Malta was as much out of place as it would be
on the quarter deck of a man-of-war. We
tuprose the most enthusiast 3 c champion of
theliberty of the press would hardly think It
right to publish, a journal within the walls of
Fort McHenry, in which the officers of that
garrison should be daily advised to desert,
an d the men be constantly excited to mutiny;
and whose columns should be filled with per
sistent abuse of the government and all en
gaged in Its defense. Why should journals
of that description be allowed to diffuse their
poieon beneath its wails amidst the excitable
populace of a largje city ?
So too with reierence to the freedom of
speech in debate, one of the vital conditions
of republican liberty. The late session In
Congress has witnssed a magnanimity on the
part of the majority in both houses of a truly
romantic cast. The acts and the motives of
the government, in the suppression of the in
surrection, (admitted by one of Us most dis
tinguished chiefs to proceed plainly from the
disappointment of leading aspirants to office,)
have been assailed from day to day with a vir
ulence and a persistence which would be
harmless in time of peace, bnt which in time
of war can have no other effect upon the pop
ular mind, than to perplex and dishearten
those who are staking life and fortune on the
cause of the country. This generosity excites
, no gratitnde on the part of those toward
i whom it is practiced; and so far from Being
i reciprocated, the member of the Confederate
i Congress at Montgomery or Richmond, who
i should assail the conduct or policy of that
i body, as the Government of the United
j States has been assailed by the sympathizers
i with secession at Washington, would not
5 reach his hotel in safety. He would swing
. from the next lamp post.

Interesting from Holla—Exchange of
Prisoners.
[From the- St. Louie Democrat, 26th.]
CcL "Wyman, cf tie Thirteenth Illinois Reg
iment, arrived by train last evening frem his
camp at Roll a. He reports that the prisoners
taken by the enemy have all been released,
and that those of them who were not wound
ed axe daily arriving at Rolia. They come
back in a pitiful plight, having been sent off
without a morsel of food, the enemy, in fact,
having scarcely any of that article to spare.
They were compelled to take the oath not
again to bear arms against “the Southern
Confederacy.”
On Wednesday Colonel Wyman released
nearly all the prisoners in his custody, some
seventy in number, without requiring their
parole, and giving each of them five days sus
tenance. Many of them declared that they
had seen enough service for Jeff Darts & Co.,
and would not under any circumstances rejoin
their comrades. Some ol them bean
forced into the ranks.
The prisoners on each side were exchanged
by virtue of the agreement made to this effect.
In this agreement it was understood that the
exchange was to leave each prisoner free from
the trammel of oath or parole.
In confirmation of previous reports, we
leaax that the main body of McCulloch’s army,
having been extensively reinforced, sow
amounts to about forty-thousand men, and is
gradually moving towards Jefferson City.
The (advance guard of about hundred,
probably under General Rains, is at Sedalla,
Some seven thousand are at Bolivar, several
thousand more at and near Lebanon, and the
remainder similarly divided and foraging over
an extensive section of the State. Tne enemy
is believed be continually in receipt of ma
terial assistance, mid in expectancy of much
more, in the form of wagons, tents, munitions,
&c., from xennessee aud Arkansas.
It is plain that a tremendous effort Is mak
ing to conquer Missouri for the cause of trea
son- Unless correejjonding and superior ex
ertions are opportunely pat forth to frustrate
and overwhelm him, there will remain an In
calculable amount- cf-anfftimg- ia »tore for
Missouri, and of disaster for the country.

corner of the earth have noticed that their creed
as such was dead, their preaching vain, their ex
ertiore futile, and their only hold on the peopio
was through their passions. These they have kin
dled, biown into nine, nursed and fed with the
faggots of hatred against their neighbors of the
South, and so cunningly filled their well-paying
pews to replenishment by means of the most un
ruly and unreasoning of human sentiments, under
the guise of the sacred name of religion. The best
things. In their abase, are the worst. To offer a
stone for bread is to outrage the possibilities of
hunger; and to 1 breed hatred ana bloodshed is
the utmost impalement of the feeling of devotion.
iO do it demands the final corruption of a false
form of religion, and that point the originators of
this national suicide have reached and passed."
If the Freeman t Journal hopes, as it seems
to hope, to array Catholic and Protestant In
fierce conflict with each other here in the' loy
al States, and thus aid the great conspiracy of
Disunion and of Slavery, it is destined to dis
appointment. The patriotic people of this
country will not be diverted from the supreme
duty of suppressing Rebellion and restoring
the Supremacy of the Laws by the summons
of any friend of Treason who desires them to
engage in the obsolete ferocities of a religious
hatred that time and tolerance have long ago
softened and extinguished. But what shall
be thought of a creature who, in times like
these, puts forth such horrible suggestions?—
-Y. Y. Tribune.
Sfipect to the Memory of Gen. Lyon.
The citizens of Enatford, Conn., held a
meeting on Saturday afternoon in the Metho
dist Church, in that place, to arrange for the
proper reception ana burial of the remains of
Gen. Lyon, who was killed in the battle of
'Wilson’s Creek, Missouri, on the 10th inst.
Committees were appointed to procure the
presence of the Hon. Galusha A. Grow at the
iuneial, if possible, and to make arrange
ments for the event. The following resolu
tions were passed:
Whzbbas, We have heard with great sorrow of
tbe death of Brigadier General Lyon, who fell
while bravely leading his troops in the late battle
in Missouri:
Resolved, That we deeply deplore the loss our
country has sustained in the untimely death of so
gallant and patriotic a soldier and skilful com
mander, whose late achievements were so full of
premise for the future in quelling the foul rebellion
Excited, That as h!s fellow-townsmen, while
we mourn onr loss, we rejoice that we have his
birth-spot among us to cheer us in steadfast devo
tion to onr country: and we trust his grave among
us will be the spot where future generations will
iza'-hcr, and be inspired with a noble emulation of
his and the virtues of Sherman, Trumbull, Put
nam, and others who have arisen in this State,-de
fenders of their country's dag, and supporters of
its government
Resolved; That we sympatizc with the family
who have lost a brother, but whose name the na
tion honors.
Sesolvtd t That wedeemit eminently proper that
we should pay our respects to his remains: and,
as his grave is to be among us, we, his fellow
townemen, will take thu proper measures to sig
nify our appreciation of ms worth.
Washington Items.
Washington, Aug. '2L tS6I,
From a review of matters throughout Mc-
Clellan’s military department, I am satisfied
that the North may dismiss ite fears of danger
to the capital The occupation of Sandy Hook
by the rebels, which took place yesterday, as
I learn from private source*, does not discom
nose Generals Scott and McClellan. It was the
natural result of orders given Gen. Banks, to
fall back along the road to Frederick, and then
march to a point on the Potomac near Point
of Rocks. This movement is with the view
of placing his columns In closer co-operation
with those of Stone, McCall and Smith. The
letter are variously located at Pooleville,
Great Fails, Chain Bridge, etc, changing
ground frequently, and “unconquerable by
any force which the enemy can bring against
them.” Agrin let me be discreet as to the
numbers and locations of each division; bnt
I may say that between Fort Washing
ton on the south, Frederick city on the
north, and cur Arlington outposts on the
south-west, one hundred and ten thousand fed
eral troops are under arms, and can be concen
trated in a day at any point of action. We
are addins largely, also, to onr artillery and
cavalry forccT If Gen. Scott has made any
error hitherto, it has been in overlooking the
essential part that these am» of the service,
especially the former, have played in modern
warfare. Artillery Is Gen. McGlellaa’a favor
ite aim, and will be used In the next battle, I
predict, with*terrible thunder aud effect.
The rebels may advance into Maryland via the
Potomac forae, as soon as they like. I think.
that McClellan would assist 25,000 of them to
make the transit if they would only oblige
him so much. The other day, ten rebel regi
ments, signalled cn the shore opposite the
Great Falls, sent their shouts over the ford,
aud gave indications of crossing in force. Mc-
Call was ordered to get his division out of
eight and offer no hindrance to their passage,
if they bad come over they would never have
gene back, except as released prisoners or
war. But for some reason they were marched
away, and our General lost the chance ot
fplendidly recompensing the North tor the
disgrace cfßullßun.
Catalbt fob Washisgtoh.—No Utile ex
citement was raised yesterday by the arrival
at the levee of the steamers City of Madison,
Neptune, Stephen Decatur and Lancaster, front'
Camp Noble, near Madison, Indiana, with six
companies of the Dearborn Cavalry. The re
maining feu? companies of this regiment
have gone to St. Louis, under the command
of Col. Baker. These sis companies are un
der Lieut. CoL Carter, and are bound for
Washington by the way of Pitttivmg. They
are all noble-iroking fanner? -gfth stout
horses. They will be formidable in the field.
Two of these companies, th'jge of Capta. Bu
chanan and Dunglad, ar<, from Switzerland
county. Switzerland U a patriotic piece of
earth; it haa furnished two companies of cav
alry, two of infantry o ne of artillery.
As soon as they taken in the necessary
stores, the boat', continued on their way to
