Kelly' Bis some troops guarding the line of the Bal timore and Ohio Railroad, and other troops nrc employed, in detachments, against* the bushwhackers, who arc just. beginning to thaw out. The 'Wheeling correspondent of the Cincinnati CtexUc* writing on the sth, cays; Gen. Fremont and Staff left here very quiet- i lr on Saturday morning, on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad. Their destination is under stood to be New Creek, about fifteen miles this side of Cumberland. From New Creek It was expected Geo. Fremont would pro ceed southward to-day, to ward Moorfield- It Is expected that be will concentrate the Bien ter Division with the forces under 'Milroy and Schcncfc, and proceed southward toward the Virginia and Tennessee railroad. The distance from New Creek to the Tennessee railroad is one hundred and fifty or two hun dred miles. Milroy is at Monterey, about hall way. Schenck is south of Moorfield a few miles, and the Bleaker Division is expect ed to make a junction at Moorfield. The difficulty in. making a rapid advance is the want of transportation. Nearly all the transportation in this Department was sent to Ger. Lander's Division last winter, and is now In Banks’s column. The Honker Division was nearly destitute of transportation also. Jdßroy has been drawing his supplies from Grafton, by war of Beverly and Cheat Menu tain. The roads have been so bad that it takes fifteen days for a team to reach btm with a email load. The result, therefore, has been that supplies could not reach him to enable him to moke an advance. But he has been obliged to put the men on ilrmtpui ra tions and confine their operations to scouting and pursuing guerrilla parties. Supplies tor Milroy and alf the other forces will hereafter go by way of New Creek and Moorfield. The roal Is good on that route, but the distance from the railroad is eo great that it will re quire a very large number of teams to trans port sufficient supplies for the army on the expedition. Fremont is making every effort to procure transportation, and to make thor ough preparation for the But the difficulty of advancing supplies is so great that be will not, probably, be able to go fur ther South than Moorfield ror some days. He will not probably encounter the enemy in force, until he threatens some point on the railroad, when the enemy will prepare to re sist him. The Snez Canal—As it was 2*ooo Tears Ago, as it is Now, and as it will bo in 1865* [From the Boston Cocrier.] Those who tike an interest in the Suez Canal, will hear with pleasure that the work is so far advanced that the water on the Medi terranean has probably by this time entered Lake Timsah, situated, as it is known, half way, or about forty miles between Pelnse and Suez. On tbe Ist of February last, the Mira time Canal had reached a point within seven miles of Timsah, and btilting materials of all kinds were brought from different ports of the Mediterranean through the canal as far as it reached. A secondary canal, or, os it is called, a canal of irrigation and of fluviatic navigation, now brings the fresh water of the Nile to Lake Timsah and then diverges into two branches, one Of whieh flows towards Pcluse and the other toward. Suez, in a line parallel with the <3reat Maritime Can ah This little fresh water canal is intended for supplying the wonts of 20,000 laborers now at wort, and for irrigating the country surrounding the Isthmus. 1 It is well known that the Isthmus of Suez , is a neck of land which separates the Mediter- I ranean from the Bed Sea. The distance from ; one sea to the other is thirty leagues. The Canal of Suez will thus be about eighty miles in length, 240 feet wide, 24 feet deep, a depth sufficient for vessels of 3,000 tons. It will cost about $60,000,000 and will probably be finished within three or four years from the present time. On the route of the Suez Canal there is three lakes; the first, near the shores of the Med iterranean, is Lake Menzaleh; the second and largest is Lake Timsah, located about midway; and the third is the Bitter Lake, about 20 miles from Suez, near winch city will be the termi nus of the canal Tbs navigation through the Suez Canal will shorten tbe voyage for ships going from ports of the Mediterranean to India 12,000 miles; for those going from the European ports of the Atlantic, 9,000 miles; from northern ports of the United States, 7,000 miles. Conse quently the reduction of expenses of ships pasting through this short cut will be about fifty per cent. From the statistical reports published in 1855 in the Annates du Commerce Juterieur, the tonnage of the various ships navigating from ports of Europe to India was, in 1853,3,000,000 tons. The navigation between the United Stales and India was 280,000 tons. Progress ive increase from 1853 to 1863, 800,000 tons. Total, 8,080,000 tons. The capital which will be spent In the con struction of the canal is estimated, as we have said, at sixty millions of dollars. Vessels go ing through will pay at the rate of 10 francs per ton (about two dollars,) which, on 3,080,- 000 tons will give an annual income of nearly $6,006,000. In addition to this, tbe culture of 500.000 acres of land granted by the Viceroy of Egypt to the company, and the toll paid by boats on the fresh water canal, will amount to $4,000,000. Total, $10,000,090. Thus the annual income will be ten millions of dollars, or about 16 per cent on the capital The importance of connecting the Mediter ranean with the Bed Sea is not a new idea tor it was suggested 2600 years ago. BUmaea the Third, maowu as the Great Sesostris. was the first king of Egypt who undertook the digging of a canal lor the junction of these eeas, and it was commenced 750 years before Christ. Nechos, one cf the successors of Sesostris, contributed considerably to the construction of the canal; but a prophet having predicted that,U completed, it would open Egypt to foreign Invasion, the Prince ordered that the | work (should be at once abandoned. Alter the conquest of the Persians, Darius, the son of Hystaspcs, sent a large number of laborers to work on the canal,"but unfortu nately be died before its completion. The invasion of the Macedonians soon fol lowed, and Ptolemy Philadelphia, a worthy successor of Alexander, after many years of exertion, had the happiness of seeing the ca nal finished. This great and useful work was accomplised 280 years before Christ. It is said that 120.000 laborers lost their lives from want of water and food, while at work on the Thus five centuries passed away from the time that Sesostris began its construction to the day of its completion. It was afterwards Canalie PUemeeus, and, according to Pliny, was 100 condees wide, (150 feet,) SO feet la depth and 100 miles in length. It opened at the Pcluelan breach of the Nile, near Babas* terminated at Aasinfo, on the Arabic It seems that the rulers of Egypt still fear ed the foreign invasion predicted to Nechos, as gates were placed across the eapei dividing H Into sections from one end to the other. These gates opened to admit cue or two ves sels at a time, and closed immediately behind them. However, tbe great Miratime Canal, the pride and glory of Egypt, was soon to be de stroyed by tbe despotic and barbarous Sara cens. The Calef, Ahoa DjaShr El Muosoor, hearing that Ail, a Governor of Medina, had revolt & against him, determined to take that city by famine, and, in order to cut off all supplies from the rebels, he ordered the Ptolemy Canal to be filled up with sand. The destruction of the Ptolemy Canal hap pened In the y car 1200 after Christ. Tbe canal, filled with fresh water from the Kile, had the great advantage of irrigating sad fertilizing au the lands of the lethmos; and soon the once desolate and sandy desert was covered with numerous fields of corn and all kinds of agricultural produce. Large and opulent cities rose as if by magic, along the line of that great thoroughfare, and tra ders from every part of the world exchanged their goods with tbe Egyptians, as they cros sed with their ships from one sea to the other. Since that time to the year 1859, no effort had been made to reconstruct the canal, but the ruins of Babas lie, Heroopolis, Sarepsaam and ofher great cities formerly standing on Us basks, attest to Its past commercial impor tance, and of the large industrious population of Its neighborhood. If we contrast the Ptolemy. Canal, and all the unhappy circumstances attending its pro- ! _ traded construction, with tbe Suez canal now progressing, we gratefully the Almighty tor blescing our age with the great improve ments of modern civilization. As we hare said - heretofore, the ancient canal was 500 years in progress of construc tion, while it is expected that the modem one will be made In six. years. Through ignorance and mismanagement, 120,000 laborers lost their lives while engaged on the ancient canal, whilst with the knowl edge, talent, and abundant means now at hand, no apprehension of losing human lives can be reasonably entertained. Tbe Pi ol«?u»y canal was destroyed, through, selfish ano revciigeftd motives, by an igno rant and tyranuteal tnorsaren,, whilst the new Maritime car al, protecte d and patronized by Mohammed the talented Viceroy who now rules Egypt, bids fair to last for ages, as a standing D.ouument of his wire and active government; banding down to posterity his name and that of Ferdinand de L%~epß, the promoter ul this great and useful enterprise.

[From* foe Richmond Enquirer, April 80.] The protabUitT of a battle at Torktowa di-! mimshes. aloGleuan came there to vanquish f onr army, it .was said, but betook himself at \ once, and. diligently, to the construction of defenses] The two armies hare placed ob- : studies between themselves whichnelther can easily pass. They are shut out from each other. McClellan has commenced! the siege of Richmond GO miles away, and is busy dig ging his parallels and zig-zags. At the rateof advance, he would by the rules of arithmetic, reach Richmond in about thirty years. The opposing lines are now. however, pretty close, and wc shall probably either have an ar tillery duel very soon, or. Johnston will fall back and give McClellan farther room for parallels. He may thus allow McClellan to dig bis way, prolonging bis dia tancc from his base, and otherwise exposing him to advantages, until* we get the enemy ■where, m case of a defeat, they could not take swift shelter In Fortress Monroe. We should not be surprised if this shall prove to be the programme of the campaign m the peninusla. McClellan is working upon 1,1 science,” and will not leave cover, or fight except at an advantage to himself, Gunboats, long-range cannon, ditches, and breastworks are the reliance of him, who, surely by ceu trast, is called Napoleon.

Ittore Work for Pro-Slavery Jurists. {New York Evening Post.} The country is menaced with more slavery litigation of the Dred Scott order in the Uni ted States Supreme Court. It is said that Rcverdy Johnson has given it os his opinion that the District of Columbia abolition act is defective in some particulars, such as in the mode of assessing the value of the slaves lib erated, in the character of the testimony to be admitted, in excluding parties from the benefits -of the act because of their dis oyalty, and in one or two other minor details; burl learn that that Mr. Johnson con- ededtlie cnsire and supreme power of Con eress to abolish slavery in the District of olumbia. It is assumed that the questions thus raised may be thrown into the courts, and that we are to have another Dred Scott affair, but as yet it is not known what the masters propose to do in the matter. They claim that the act might have been made more palatable to them, oi which there can be no doubt; but as Congress decided to frame it as it stands, and as there are as good lawyers in that body as out of it, it Is not to be presumed that they did not take care to make the law hold water. At ail events, none of the objections said to be taken by the distinguished barrister above named go to the pith and marrow of the act, and no court in Christendom, not even the United States Supreme Court, the citadel of slavery, can recall the boon granted to the subjects ot the statute. They are free forev er, and the District of Columbia is forever free. Ohioans at Pittsburg Vindicated} Gov. Tod of Ohio communicates a Special Message with a report ofLieutenant Governor Stanton, giving the result of his recent trip to Pittsburg Landing, with the steamer Glen dale, for the relief of the sick and wounded soldiers of Ohio. One portion of Mr. Stan ton's report deserves circulation in justice to the Ohio regiments whose conduct in the Pittsburg battle bas been severely comment ed upon. He says: At the risk of being charged with imperti nence, I must be permitted to give my opinion of the part which the Ohio troops played in the late battle at Pittsburgh Land ing. 1 have spent two days upon the battle ground, in constant intercourse with officers and men of all grades and ranks, from Major- Generals commanding divisions, to privates in the ranks, and have availed myself of these facilities to the utmost of my power, to pro cure such information as would enable me to form a correct judgment in the premises. And I have no hesitation in declaring it to be my settled and deliberate conviction, that the Ohio volunteers have been basely slander ed, and that, in truth, not a single regiment from Ohio is justly chargeable with cowardice or with any other misconduct in that battle. That the disasters of Sunday, April 6th, were the result of a surprise, which is justly chargeable upon the commanding officers, and not upon the men on whom the responsibility is now sought to be thrown. Whenever the occasion snail demand, justify or excuse a statement of the facts and circumstances up on which this opinion is based, and the names of the officers whose criminal negligence has occasioned the disaster of the day, I shall be prepared to give them. In my judgment the honor of the State, and justice to our brave volunteers, demands that a thorough examina tion should be had, and the responsibility thrown where it justly belongs. Keep lour Stock off the Roads. The Legislature ot Hew York has passed a righteous law to prevent farm stock from run ning on the highways. It is designed as a sub stitute for the several local bills on the same subject, and, being just the thing desired, will meet with general approbation. We copy a synopsis of it from the JSochatcr Evening Express: The bill provides that it shall be lawful for any person to seize and take possession of any cattle, horses, sheep, or swine which may be in any public highway, oppqslte premises own ed or occupied by him, or which may be tres passing upon hi&premises; that he shall then give immediate notice to a Justice of the Peace or a Commissioner of Highways, who shall thereupon give notice by affixing the same la six conspicuous places, of the sale of such animal or animals at public auction. The sale shall be made in not less than fifteen, or more than thirty days thereafter, for cash; and out of the proceeds thereof the Justice shat retain the following fees and charges for his services In giving said notice aid making said sale, namely: For every horse sold, fl; fox every cow or call, or other cat tle, 50 cents; and for every sheep or swine, 50 cents: and shall then pay to the person whoshall have seized, the said animal or ani mals the sum following, that is to say: For every horse so seized and sold, $1; for every cow or calf, or other cattle, 50 cents; and for every sheep or swine, 25 cents; together with a reasonable compensation, to be estimated by a Justice or Commissioner, for tbe care and keeping of said animal or animals from the seizure thereof to the time of the sale. Thesurplus money from the sale shall be paid to the owner or owners of said animals, on, proof of such ownership, provided such surplus moneys shall be claimed within one ; rear after the sale; otherwise the same shall se paid to the Supervisor of the town for the use of the town. The owner of any animal so seized may re deem the same by paying the several sums so mentioned, together with a reasonable com ; >en&ation to the person making the seizure, or the care of keeping such animal. The final section provides that in case the animal so seized shall have been so fanning at large or trespassing by the wilfol ace of any other person than the owner to effect that ob ject, such owner shall be entitled to the pos session of snch by making the de maod therefor and the proof required In the next preceding section, and paying to the person making such seizure the amount of compen sation fixed by snch Justice or Commlsciooer. for the care and keeping of each animal, and without paying any other charges. And the person committing snch wilful act shall- be lia ble to a penalty ors9o, to be recovered in aa. action at law at the suit of the owner of euch animal or the person makibg finch seizure.

He says he was never once deceived by them* 4 They knew • the forests around them as the soaami knows tbcoea.* Most of them are the slaves of rich and educated secessionists, and more than one bad the blood-of the white aristocracy In their veins. They would cross the Potomac at night, from the Virginia aide, detail their nar rative, and recross before morning; and In • every instance they seemed to bo fully aware that if detected their Uvea would he forfeited. It is stated of one of the most intelligent, that some time before, his master, whom he ' had served with great devotion from boyhood, bad him severely horsewhipped, which was a sure preparation for a change of feeling in the latter, andlm seized the tot-oppor tunity to escape. ‘After getting, into our camps, he hired himself as a servant to Gen. —. and soon displayed all the qualities which had made him so Tamable to his owiier. One dark night he was missing, and just be fore daybreak he was seen coming to the river side In a boat containing his-mfe and four children. It is well known that the intelli gence of therctreat -of- the rebels from Manas sas, so much discussed and doubted, was.de rived from fugitive slaves. Every item of their information was found to be correct.

With one General excluding negroes from the lines, altogether, another coaxing them in, another dealing with negroes by abitrary mili tary law. and a fourth leaving them altogether to the civil authorities, who can tell in what direction the political interests of the country are drifting ?** pg" The Boston Transcript learns that Geo.
