Read the “ Thirty Short Reasons”
presented on the second page of this issue,
why the Kew Constitution should not be
adopted. Read and ponder them, and if
your neighbor is unconcerned take pains
to'enlighten him also.
Only Sepoys and other savages use
a flag of truce to decoy and murder their
adversaries. The correspondent of the
Baltimore American quoted in another col
umn, gives the last illustration of this spe
cies of rebel morality.
GOV* SEBAGIJE IN THE UNITED
STUBS SENATE.
The plucky little Governor of a plucky
little State which is brimful of patriotism
and bravery, will represent her interests
and the people of Rhode Island in a new
sphere in the United States Senate, succeed
ing Mr. Simmons in that body.
CONFISCATION.
The people will he glad to know exactly
how the Douse stood upon the Confiscation'
bill. The names of the members voting
yea and nay will be found upon the second
page. In spite of the fact that eleven
who were elected as Republicans voted
against it, the hill passed by fourteen ma
jority.
BALTIMORE.
The city of Baltimore will long enjoy an
unenviable reputation for the slaughter of
the brave Massachusetts boys in the streets,
while on their way to defend the capital
and maintain the Constitution of their coun
try. To this day the aristoiacy of the
city are mainly secret, if not open traitors;
but they can no longer suppress the Union
sentiment of the city. Indeed, as might
have been expected, that veiy senti
ment has become somewliat lawless,
as the scenes of last Sunday and
Monday, fully detailed on the second
page will show. Colonel Kenley’s
Ist Maiyland regiment was composed
mostly of Baltimore men, and when the
news of the retreat of Banks (in whose
division the regiment was) aud the severe
losses Jt had suffered, reached the city, the
excitement against the traitors was tremen
dous. It required the most energetic
measures to prevent the most disastrous
results. • The regiment was doubtless
composed of the middle classes and
the people could scarcely bereslained from
the most violent measures against those
whom they regarded as the friends and
abettors of those who had caused the death
of the noble men who had gone from
among them to put down the rebellion.
The fostering of a mob spirit by any class
of men is, in the end, almost sure to recoil
upon those who excite it.
the wab in \IBGIRIA.
From the 'Wheeling Intelligencer of the
28th, -WO have particulars of an important
movement of Gen. Fremont’s forces, from
.Franklin, Pendleton county, Va., to the
reinforcement of Gen. Banks, the transmis
sion of which news by telegraph was not
permitted. From this, which we print
elsewhere, it would appear that the danger
to which Banks’ little army in the Shenan
doah Valley was exposed, was known to
the War Department, since on Saturday
Gen. Fremont was ordered to move his
column of 20,000 men to sustain him.
The map will show Franklin to he in Pen
dleton county, twenty-four miles from
Monterey, and sixty-five from Staunton, and
nearly the same distance due west of New
Market, Gen. Banks’ old headquarters.
The troops went forward in high spirits,
eager to meet the enemy, and in the mea
greness of news from that quarter for some
days past we are left to conjecture that
the report of the retirement of Jackson from
the pursuit of Banks’ army, may be a re
ality and have the cause above indicated.
The reinforcement of Gen. Fremont will
turn the scale probably against Jackson.
But what a happy valley that of the Shen
andoah must be, with the contending ar
mies driving one another to and fro across
its territory. Bitterly is Virginia paying
the penally richly due a State that has
made her chief staple the sale of her
children.
From Gen. McClellan's column we have
no important news, and none can be im
mediately expected, since the Federal ad
vance is slow and of the nature of a slow
sege. Aggressive movements are not fre
quent on any considerable scale. The
movement of a body of Federal cavalry,
cutting off an important railroad connec
tion northward, by the destruction of a
bridge 500 feet long, is noted elsewhere,
together with the destruction of a large
amount of rebel army stores. Operations
by our gunboats baye not recommenced,
but they are reported in a state of readi
ness.
Onr dispatches from this section gen
erally attest- the virulence ot the disunion
gentiment among the Virginia rebels, and
it is noticeable that more stringent regula
tions are announced for the management of
affairs at Norfolk. The only remedy for
the malady of the Old Dominion is cman"
cipation, the excision and extirpation of
her curse. That will be still better than
dividing her territory. Let itbe made free
from Accomac to the Pan Handle, and tho
effete mother of Stales may gain a new
lease of honored life among common-

VOLUME-XV.
Corlntli and Its Railroad Conucctlour,
The map we give shows the location of Cor
inth as related to Memphis, Mobile, and other
points of the Sonthand Southwest. The dis
tances are
Corinth to Mobile 323
Corinth to Memphis 93
Corinth to Grand Junction 14
The territory comprised in the map takes in
the country from Nashville on the north to
the gulf, and a width of about three hundred
miles. The railroad line from Nashville to
the intersection with the Memphis and
Charleston B. R., is held by Gen. Mitchell
whose headquarters are at Huntsville a few
miles cast of Decatur as shown in the map.
The latest advices from his command show
the rebellion crushed out Northern Ala
bama. The rebels at Cormth are hemmed
in from, the east and north by Gen. Hal
leek’s army, the parallels of which are
being daily brought nearer the rebel en
trenchments. By the cutting off of their
connections north by the Mobile and Ohio
railroad and east as above named, the terri
tory from which they draw their supplies is
greatly contracted, and still more so since
Gen. Butler’s forces and the Gulf fleet have
begun operations on the lower Mississippi.
FROM GENERIL FRFMONT’S
DEPARTMENT.
Ee moves 20)000 men to Support
Gen. Banks.
March, from Franklin Eastward,
[From tlie Wheeling Intelligencer, S3lh.]
One of our editorial corps returned last evc
nimr from Franklin, Pendleton county, eighty
milia south of New Creek, which was up to
Sunday last the headquarters of Gen. Fremont.
It is distant twenty-four miles fromMonterey,
and sixty-five from Staunton, and on the same
line of latitude with New Market, General
Banks’ former headquarters. in the adjoin
ing valley. It is a place hard of access
from New Creek, by reason of two rivers
intervening, and also on account of
the miserable condition of the last twenty
miles of the road along the mountains that
skirt the South Branch. It was to this place
that Generals Mllroy and Schenck fell back
after the battle of McDowell, and to which
Gen. Fremont came on a forced march from
Petersburg, thirty miles this side. The place
I itself is a miserable, squalid village of old
huts. In the midst of a cordon of hills, and is
capable of being strongly defended with a
comparatively small force. Jackson pursued
Milroy and Schenck to Franklin and would
have brought on a battle possibly, had not
Fremont come up with his reinforcements.
On Saturday last, late In the day, Gen. Fre
mont received a dispatch from the Secretary
of War to fall back with his entire command
to the support ofGcn. Banks, and at daylight
on Sunday the troops commenced breaking
camps, by regiments, and by twelve o'clock
in tbe day that whole army of over twenty
thousand men were on the move. It was a
grand sight to see them breaking camp. They
toe k np their line of march with colors flying
and bands placing. The day was a most beau
tiful one, and the mountain air was jnst
bracing enough to be inspiriting. The troops
were m excellent mood. Within the last
twenty-four hours they had succeeded In get
ting full rations, something which they had
not had for several days previous. They were
eager for a fight, and the whole line sang ex
ultant tongs as they filed out into the main
road.
No one outside of the General’s confiden
tial advisers of course knew the object of the
move, but the guessing was remarkably accu
rate. Some said the idea was to get nearer our
supplies; others to get in the rear of the reb
els, and in conjunction with McDowell, “bag”
them after they bad chased Banks far enough.
Others supposed it was to protect onr com
munication with New Creek and Cumberland
by inters of a lino thrown out from Moore
field to Green Spring Run, -which will proba
bly turn out to be the correct supposition.
The march for the first twenty miles was
slow and hard. The roads were ratted as deep
as they could be, and the heavy artillery was
dragged along with great difficulty—mauyof
the pieces requiring six, eight and even ten
horses. The first day’s journey was to the
upper crossing of the South Branch of the
Potomac—the place where the rebels had
burnt the bridge, and which we were obliged
to span with a pontoon. Thenext day’s march
was intended to be a distance of twenty-five
miles, to a point between Petersburg and
Moorcfield. We presume It was made, as the
General was hurrying forward with all speed.
What the finale of the march will bo of course
is a matter only of speculation. Wc will all
know in a day or two.
“The Southern Crow of Honor.”
Gen. Beauregard has rewarded a portion of
tbc Texan troops with what he chooses to
call “ The Order of the Southern Cross of
Honor.” How strangely will this phrase
strike npoa the ear of Northerners who have
seen and read of “Southern honor;” and if
Beauregard would accept suggestions from a
Northern source, what numerous recommen
dations to the same honor coaid be made
from the records ol the rebel army. Whit
“Southern honor” was won by the rebels at
Manassas, when they made dram sticks of the
bones from Yankee legs, and drinking cups
from Yankee skulls; or those at Williams
burg, who bayonetted our wounded officers;
or those at Pittsburg Landing, who suffered
our wounded to die upon the held unattended
for two and three days; or by the guerrillas
of Western Virginia, who cut one boy’s hoad
of! with a scythe because his father was a
Union man, and cut another one open for the
same family offence; or those of Eastern Ken
tucky, who shot one of the Gibson family
in his own door, and hung another in sight of
his wife; or if these are not enough £o ex
haust the “crosses,” the whole rebel army of
Southeastern Virginia may be knighted for
thtir chivalrous treatment of all the people
with whom they come in contact who have a
taint of Unionism about them. And then let
Beauregard allot a special assortment of these
testimonials to Southern “honor” for tho
benefit ot the prison keepers ot the South,
who amuse themselves by heaping every Im
aginable indignity upon those who are the
victims of their inhumanity. Truly the field
is wide for the recognition of Southern honor,
and we trust that Toutant Beauregard will not
be sparing of his crosses.
It is slated that President Lincoln’s
family will pass the summer months at tho
Soldier’s Home, Old Point, Va., the former
cummer residence of James Bachman, a man
who held some office under the Government
a few years since. The place is now undergo
ing repairs.
The 6L Paul Pnu says that the steam

Washington, May 29,1868.
The effort to have Col. Tuttle of lowa con
firmed as Brigadier General, failed in Execu
tive Session, for want of a quorum. No busi
ness was done except the confirmation of a
Quartermaster.
Mr. Richardson's bill appropriating seventy
five thousand dollars to purchase Minnesota
Row for a hospital, was voted down lathe
House to-day. The Surgeon General said he
did he didn’t want it. Mr. Morrill of Ver-
Mont moved as a substitute, giving Mrs.
Douglas ten thousand dollars outright.
He said it •would be cheaper and
would answer the same purpose.
The House by six majority voted to pur
chase of Messrs, Gales and Seaton, 100
copies of the Annals of Congress, at $355
apiece; total $35,500.
This appropriation is really intended to prop
up the declining InteUigencer . There are 100
copies already in the Congressional libraries.
Among the yeas was Voorhees of Indiana,
who uttered a declaimcr against public waste.
Thad. Stevens, the Chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee, and Walton of Vermont.
Among the few Democrats who voted nay
was Holman of Indiana. The resolution
opened the way for more appropriations of
the same description, by providing that Gales
and Seaton should not sell the remaining
copies without giving timely notice Congress,
to give it the first chance to purchase them.
A letter from Fort Monroe tells of a vessel
which after entering on board nearly three
hundred contrabands, suddenly sailed, sup
posed to have gone to sell them os slaves in
Cuba. A gunboat has gone in pursuit.
There are now in the old capitol prison, 130
prisoners—lo3 of the latter are prisoners of
war. Three of them are women, Mrs. Green
how, Mrs. Boxley and Mrs. Morris.
At the request of Gov. Stanly all persons
from North Carolina are to be sent there.
The new Agricultural Department an*

should the wheat come up to expectation.
About 350 contrabands arc ia Duff Green's
row.
A panic exists among the Unionists inLees
burg, comprising, posibly, a tenth of the in*
habitants. It Is reported that on the rebels 1
advance after the Front Royal affair, fifteen of
the most respectable citizens of London
county "were hung by the rebels, on the road
beyond Winchester. The clergymen of the
vicintiy, with a single exception, are rebel
sympathisers.
TheSenaterefused to tax slaves by a vote of
fourteen to twenty-two.
Messrs. Browning of DL, Lane of Lid- and
Doolittle of Wis., with a Connecticut Senator,
and Wilson of Mass, voted, with Cowan and
the Democrats, and border State members, to
exempt. Rhode Island, with Messrs. Grimes,
Fessenden, Sumner, and most of the anti
slavery men, voted to tax. The tax on cot
ton will now he pressed.
Since Gen. Wadsworth tore the womanheld

The siege, which was resumed on the part
of our flotilla yesterday afternoon, was kept
up until after six o’clock this evening, by the
contiDuonsfiringfrom the two mortars located
off Craighead. They sent their iron shell over
toward the enemy—part being directed to the
fort and part to the location of the rebel fleet
—about once in five minutes daring the day.
The range was good. The enemy soon com
menced to return this fire, and kept up tho
mortar practice, at irregular Intervals, until
six p. m. Some of their missiles exploded,
with fair range, in the vicinity of our steam
era—the fragments falling with a splash into
the river, but doing no damage. Many of
their shell failed to explode at all. The same
programme has been opened this morning
result thus far, same as yesterday. Onr rams
are making a reconnoissance about Craighead

enemy found dead on the field.
Shells from the enemy frequently exploded
within the national works, while many of the
Federal guns completely commanded the
rebel positions! The Adjutant of the 10th
Michigan regiment was killed day before yes
terday, under the following circumstances:
He had ridden outside the pickets, and was
observing with a glass a rebel rifle pit, when
a ball from the rifle of one ot their sharp
shooters entered his breast, killing him in
stantly. When tbe Platte Valley left there
were no indications that any battle would
occur for a week or ten days. The steamer
Denning went down to Columbus - this morn
ing to load with the chains and anchors lound
there when the place was abandoned.
New York, May 29.—Beauregard’s official

New York, May 29.—The N. Y. Times' cor
respondence, dated “New Bridge, Chickahora
iny River, Ya., Monday evening, May 26th,”
says:
Within the past three days the disposition of
tbe whole rebel army before Richmond seems
to have been changed. Instead ot the rebels
retreating with ail their supplies and camp
equipage towards the city, they are coming
from it in large numbers, and are evidently
determined to make a stand between it and
the Chickflhomlny River. It was ascertained
beyond a dontr that, five days ago, bat a
small force of the enemy, say 6,000 men, oc
cupied the ground between ns andßlchmond.
It was then supposed that our march into the
city would he easy and rapid, and that an op
portunity would soon he given the Union citi
zens of that place to demonstrate their delight
at being liberated from the secession yoke;
but now the aspect is completely changed,
and numerous indications favor the belief
that our onward progress to Richmond is to
be hotly disputed by the larger part of the
rebel army. Every hour troops are pouring
out of Richmond, and disposing themselves
along the line of the Chlckahominy, at some
points only half a mile from it.
A deserter just arrived from a Georgia regi
ment states that betwen Richmond and
Mechanicsville, and about one and a half
miles from the latter place, three Georgia
regiments have encamped since morning. He
says Beauregard arrived in Richmond last
Wednesday, and that amost vigorous attempt
will he made to save the city.
Last night our gunboats on James River
threw a Jew shells into the rebel batteries,
but with what effect we did not learn.
Yesterday we had cars running from West
Point to the Chickahominy River. Tins new
facility for getting supplies, guns and ammu
nition to the army can be readily appreciated.
A deserter who came in this morning re
ports the main body of the Confederate army
on tbe north side of the railroad, the brigade
of Tennesse troops to which he belong, doing
picket duty, on this side.
The rebels claim 150,000 men, but 80,000, he
asserts, will cover their entire force. Much
dissatisfaction exists among them on account
of the conscription act, and. many would ho
glad to lay down theirarms did not pride for-
bid. The leaders are determined to make a
stand, having chosen a position near Rich
mond for this purpose.
Headquarters Army of the Potomac,
May 29.—A bridge 500 feet long over the
South Anna Creek, s tributary of Pamnnkey
River, on the line of the Richmond, Fredcr
cricksburgand Potomac Railroad, was burned
to-day by the 6th cavalry. This cuts off all
communication by railroad between Rich
mond and Jackson’s command. The sth cav
a’ry went to Ashland, 18 miles from Rich
mond, on the same road, and burned all the
enemy’s commissary and quartermaster’s sup
plies‘stored there. This is a serious loss to
the rebels.
Encouraging From the Old

New York, May 29.—8y an arrival from

Tbe Newbem Progress states that a conven
tion at Raleigh voted down 51 to 31 the infa
mous measure offered by Kenneth Raynor,

of the members made a strong speech in favor
of free labor and the policy of encouraging
emigration of agriculturists by giving farms
to actual settlers.
The Union members of the convention agi

ernment to confiscate the estates of the rebels
and sending a committee to Washington

Washington, May 29. —Recently John.
Dean, Esq., presented to the Circuit Court
the petition of Daniel Breed for a writ of
habeas corpus to Marshal Lamon for the dis
charge ol a colored man claimed by a citizen
of Maryland as his slave, on the ground that
said alleged fugitive is illegally detained and
the restraint of Imprisonment arc not author
ized by the fugitive slave law of 1850. In
other words, that the law does not apply to
the District of Columbia. Mr. Dean to-day
continued bis argument to show that the writ
could not be refused. The court had pre
viously intimated that they would not grant
the prayer, and to-day said an appeal could be
taken to the Supreme Court of the United
States on the refusal as well as upon the
writ. Further arguments wfil be heard to
morrow. The fugitive slave law continues to
be enforced. During this month about fifty
slaves have been returned to their claimants.

on Sunday morning for City Point, with a flag
of truce, returned early this morning. The
boat took up Col. Hansom of Kentucky, who
was expected to be exchanged for CoL Corco
ran, and also Capt. Robertson of Virginia,
Lieut. Whitaker, a private, a lady, and Mr.
Lowe of Kentucky. The boat arrived at City
Point on Sunday evening. The next morning
Gen. Wool’s communications were delivered,
and on Tuesday an answer was received from
Gen. Huger.
Colonel Corcoran and the other prisoners
not having been delivered np, Colonel Hansom
and the other officers were brought back.
Colonel Hansom is veiy severe upon General
Huger lor his failure to fulfil hia promises.
Our gunboat fleet still remains fifteen or
twenty miles below City Point. Nothing has
recently been done beyond a reconnoissance a
short distance np the Appomatox. A squad
of the enemy’s cavalry came on the bank, but
a few shells scattered them. No troops or
dozer s are It-fc at City Point.
A steamer arrived from Hatteras this morn

The Norfolk Bay Book, which was suspend
ed yesterday morning, re-appeaaed in the af

Tn consequence of the frequent violation of.
the orders prohibiting trade with Norfolk and
Portsmouth, a new and more stringent order
was issued to-day, as follows;
Headquarters Department op J
Yieginia, May 23,1862. j
No goods of any kind will hereafter be
transported by express companies to Norfolk,
Portsmouth or Gosport, except by permission
of the commanding General, and then only
after invoices of the articles have been fur
nished, with the names of those to whom
they belong, and to whom they are to he de
livered.
Hereafter no vessels employed hy the army
or navy will be permitted to go to Norfolk
Portsmouth, or Gosport, or any other place
in either side of the roads, not occupied by
the troops of the the United States, except by
expess authority of the commanding General.
Any violation ot this order will subject tbe
vessels and property to seizure and confisca
tion, and the persons who may he the cause,
directly or indirectly, will be severely pun
ished. By command of
Major General Wool.
Quite a disturbance took place at Norfolk
last night. It is said to have been occasioned
by a negro shooting a corporal named James
Burke of Co. C, 99th New York regiment.
The disturbance became general, and the
greater part of the company was engaged.
Three negroes were killed and two or three
wounded. Six of the ringleaders were sent to
the Rip Raps to-day. Many others were ar
rested, hnt released. All is quiet now.

A communication from Jacob Barker argues
against the destruction of cotton, also says,
“if onr brave soldiers do not win a satisfac
tory peace, we must fallback on the ballot

rectly lor President.
An order from Provost Marshal French
says, “all coffee houses, bar rooms, hotels,

Gen. Butler ordered the circulation of Con
federate notes and bills- to cease on the 27th.
All sales or transfers of property on and af
ter that day, in consideration of such notes or
bills, will be void, and the property confisca
ted to the United States, one-fonrth to go to
the informer.
Another order suppresses the Bee for an ed
itorial in favor of the cotton-burning mob.
The Bdta office was taken possession of for
discussing the cotton question, in violation ot
Butler’s proclamation of the Ist. Its business
■will be conducted by the United States author
ities. The Adams express office hag been
opened. Theo. U. Laster has been announced
a Union candidate for Recorder in the fourth
district. Victor Wiltz is announced as a can

persons wtre’sentenced. to be shot for viola

The prize steamer Fox had arrived from
Havana, also the prize steamer Gov. Morton,
from Sabine. John M. G. Parker, formerly at
Ship Island, is Postmaster atNew Orleans.
Some cotton had arrived from Plaquemloe,
and a quantity of provisions from the interior.
Several letters have been received from New
Orleans from rebel sources, pretending to give
accounts of tbe defeat of Halleck, also that
Butler robbed the Dutch consulate of SBOO,OOO
deposited there by an agent of the banker
Hope, and that all the consuls made a unani
mous protest against it; tbat Farragnt and
Porter are afraid to land in New Orleans on ac
count of the mob; all ot which, and other
foolish statements, were certainly printed by
the Biotas Marina , which refused to correct
the statements, although proved to be false.
The last direct accounts, of May 3d, places
the French forces in Mexico, twelve miles
from Panbla, with 15,000 Mexicans, ready to
give battle.
Several vessels have sailed from Havana tor
New Orleans, and more are advertised, in
cluding two Spanish steamers. Two rebel
schooners with cotton have arrived. The
British steamer Edward Hawkins arrived with
a cargo of cotton from Matamoras, and sailed
for Liverpool.
A municipal regulation of the city of New
Orleans punishes with imprisonment in the
chlabooae any woman of the town found in the
stieets after nightfall, or who may converse
from the windows of their houses with per
sons outside. This is doubtless the pun
ishment accorded to women who may insnlt

General Butler.

brandies, wines, saltpetre, &c., is valued at
half a million of dollars. She was from Nas

PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS*
"Washington, May 29,1862.
SENATE.
Mr. WELLY of Va. called np the memorial
of the legislature of Virginia, with reference
to the division of that state, and requesting
the Senators and Representatives to use their
influence to secure the admission of the new
State of Western Virginia. He referred to
the manner in which the allegiance of the
State was transferred to the rebellion
in secret session, and without consulting the
people and to the action of the people of
northwestern Virginia remaining loyal to the
Union and forming a separate government.
He claimed that this feeling for a division of
the State was no new thing. It hid been
frequently urged by the people of the State.
Reason and justice were both in favor of it.
There were a sufflcicotnumber of Inhabitants
there, and Western Virginia was completely
divided from the eastern half by the Alleghany
mountains.
Nature seems to have divided the two.
Commerce and industry both demand a sepa
ration. There has never been but little com
mercial Intelligence between Western
and Eastern Virginia. The difference of
the social institutions and habits of
of both indicate a separation. Slavery cannot
exist In Western Virginia, and why should the
people of that section be compelled to be sub
jected to a system of laws calculated for sla
very which exists In Virginia, The geograph
ical position, climate, natural productions,
and moral and religions sentiments of the
people, absolutely forbid the existence of sla
very in Western Virginia. He contended that
the proposed State was rich in mineral and
other resources, and would make a wealthy
ar d prosperous State. The memorial was re
ferred to the Committee on Territories.
The tax bill was then taken np, the question
being on Mr. Henderson’s amendment, tbit
tbe proposed tax on slaves shall not be levied
in any State which has adopted the system of
gradual emancipation. Teas 15, nays 20.
Mr. FESSENDEN of Me. offered an amend
ment to reduce the proposed tax on slaves
from five dollars to two dollars each, being
sufficiently high in the present condition of
things.
Mr. FESSENDEN’S amendment reducing
the t&x on slaves to two dollars was adopted.
After debate Mr. Sumner’s amendments
as amended, were rejected, 14against 22. Af
ter executive session the Senate adjourned.
HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.
The Speaker laid bafore the House a com
munication from C. W. Walton, stating that
be is about 1o accept and enter upon the office
of Associate Judge of the Supreme Court in
Maine, and resigning his seat as a member of
tbe House.
Mr. POTTER, from the Committee onPub
11c lands reported back the Senate bill estab
lishing a land office in Colorado Territory.
Passed.
The House passed 94 against 37, the bill de
claring as the census of California has never
been reliably taken until the year 1860, and as
It appears that Baud State had a sufficient pop
ulation to entitle her to three representatives
under the supposition that California was en
titled to the some, and as direct taxes have
been apportioned to, and paid by her under
tbe census of 1860, therefore she be allowed
three representatives, instead of two, until
the bepinning of the nest Congress.
Mr. HICKMAN of Pa., from the Commit
tee on Judiciary, reported a bill for the effec
tual suppression of the slave trade, giving
consuls and commercial agents on the coast
of Africa, certain judicial powers, in order
that proceedings may be by them Instituted
against the vessels engaged in the trade.
The persons concerned to be tried in the
courts of this country. PassedJ63 against 45.
The bill dividing Pennsylvania into two ju
dicial districts, and providing for holding a
district court at Erie, passed.
The House resumed the consideration of
the bill appropriating $75,000 for the purchase
of the Douglas Hospital.
Mr. WOODRUFF, while declaring himself
in favor of prosecuting the war to restore the
authority ot the United States, said he conld
not support the confiscation and emancipa
tion bills, regarding them as inexpedient, un
just and unconstitutional. The advocates of
extreme measures seemed to be giving aid to
the enemy, and pursuing a course better cal
culated to destroy the Union than that of the
rebels themselves.
Debate on the bill followed, and it was
finally rejected. Adjourned. ..
The Indiana State Stock Bank,
New York, May 29.—The committee of the
Board of Brokers report the over issue of
Indiana State stock at over a million and a
half.
Seizure of Confiscated Property.
[From the Nashville Union, 37th.]
Mr. E. R. Glascock, United States Marshal
for the middle district of Tennessee, on last
Saturday seized upon the following printing
offices in this city, as property forfeited to the
United Stales, under the Confiscation act of
Ang. 6,1861: Republican Banner office, Union
and American office, Gazette office and Southern
Methodist publishing house; and on Monday
the ratriot office and Baptist publishing
house, being ail the offices in the city. He
also seized upon two gun factories in South
Nashville, belonging to stock companies.
As We Expected*
[From yie Springfield Journal.]
The Mrgiitier, pressed lor an answer, at last
candidly admits that it is in *favor of a bes
tobation of slavery in the District of Co
lumbia by Congress, provided the people, and
Virginia and Maryland, which ceeded the “ten
miles square” to the Government, shall ask
for it. This is as we expected- That sheet,
true to its instincts, is for slavery, as against
freedom, all the time. On the same principle,
we suppose, it is in favor of a restoration of
slavery in the State of Illinois, and the entire
Northwest, provided Virginia, which origi
nally ceded the Territory to the General
Government, should demand it. Shame to a
public journal that is thus willing to sell out
everything to the behests of the rebel oli
garchs.
Destructive Fire in Hastings.— By a tele
gram from Hastings, we are informed of a de
structive fire which occurred in that place,
at two o’clock this morning. The Hastings
foundry and machine shop, owned by John S.
Thorpe, was totally destroyed, together with
all the machinery, patterns, tools, etc. A saw
mill, planlog-mill, and blacksmith shop ad
joining, with a quantity of coal and lumber,
were destroyed. The cause of the fire has not
been discovered. The foundry is said to have
been the most extensive west of Milwaukee.
It is estimated that the total loss will amonnt
to $25,000, of which 18,000 was covered by
insurance. —Winona (Minn.) Republican! 2 Slh.
Rebel Prisoner Shot at Johnson Island.
—A rebel prisoner at Johnson Island was
walking on the outside of the barracks yester
day, when the guard observed bim and order
ed him to halt. The rebel turned towards
him and said “Go to hell,” when the guard
discharged his musket, the ball passing
through the prisoner’s body. He lived about
twenty-four hours, and this morning his re
mains were sent to Nashville. We were una
ble to learn his name, but believe he belonged
to a Tennessee regiment. He undoubtedly
was attempting to escape' — Cleve. Leader.
The Secesh among the Canucks.—The
traitors and fugitives from the South whose
arrival in Windsor we noticed a few days ago
are creating quite a sensation among the un
sophisticated Canucks in that little village
These men with their families arc lionized and
paraded by them on every occasion. Whether
it is done for sympathy for the rebel cause or
from their natural propensity to make asses
of themselves, we do not know, or carfe. —

meat!:
ILLINOIS
Is ahont equal In extent to England, wUhaponulatlon
of 1,723568, acd a soli capable nf supporting 20,T00.<00.
No elate in the Valley of she Ulsmsapnl offers *o great
an inducement to the settler oa the State of Illinois.'
There is no part of the world where all the conditions
of climate ana eoll so admirably combine to produce
these twogreat staples, Coawand Whsa.t.
CLIMATE.
Nowhere can the Industrious farmer secure such im
mediate result* from bis labor aa on the «s deep. rich,
loamy solb>, cultivated with so much case. The cli
mate from the extreme southern part of the State to
me Terre Hants, Alton A St. Louis Railroad, a distance
of nearly 2CS miles, is well adapted to Winter
WHEAT, COBH, COTTOH, TOBACCO,
Pcachee. Pears, Tomatoes, and every variety of fruit
and vegetables Is grown In great abundance, from
which Chicago and other Northern markets are fur
nished nom lour to six weeks earlier than their imme
diate vlclslty. Between tho Terre Haute, Alton &3L
Lon’s Railroad anc the Kankakee and Illinois Rivers,
a distance of H5 miles on the Branch, and 1 36 miles oa
the Main Trunk. lies the great Com and Stock raising
portion of the State.
THE OBDINABT YIELD .
Of Corn Is from 50 to SO bushels per acre. Cattle.
Horses. Mules, Sheep and Hogs are rvleed here at
small cost and field large profits. It la believco that
no section of country presents greater Inducements
for Dairy Farming than the Prairies of Illinois, a
branch of farming to which hut little attention has
been paid, and which must yield sure profitable re
mits. Between the Kankakee and Illinois Rivera, and
Chicago sno Dunlelth. a distance of Hfcy-ali miles on
the Branch and U7 miles by the Main Trunk, Timothy
Hay, Spm g Wheat, Corn,
OATS, EAELEY, ETE, BUCKWHEAT,
And vegetables suited to the cllmat®, are produced In
great aoundance. The northern portion of Illinois la
about ihe climate of Pennsylvania, wcn'.e th«* southern
pait bes the climate of Kentucky and Virginia, giving
a variety of temperature In the State, suited to almost
every product of the United States.
AGRICULTURAL PRODUCTS,
The Agricultural prodoets of Illinois are greater
than iboee of any other state. The Wheat crop of
ISdirasrstlmnted atSs.ooo.Ofe bnshtK while the corn
crop yields not less than 140,000,000 bushels, besides the
crop of Oats. Barley, Rye. Bcckwbeat, Potatoes, Sweet
Potatoes, Pumpkins, Squashes. Flax, Hemp, Peas,
Clover, Cabbage, Beet*. Tobacco. Cotton, So-ghun.
Giapts,Peaches Appier, Ac, which go to swell the
vast snibgate of production in this fertl’e region.
Over Four Million toss of produce were sent out of
the Slate of Illinois during the past year.
STOCK RAISING*
In Central end Southern Illinois uncommon advan
tages are presented for the extension of Stock raising.
AH kmdsof Cattle, Hoiees. Mules, Sheep. Hogs, Ac*
of me best breeds, yield handsome profits: large for
tunes have already been mace, and the field is open
for others to enter with the fairest prospects of like
result a Dairy Fabkisq also presents Its Induce
ments to many.
CULTIVATION OF COTTON. '
The experiments la Cotton culture are of vary great
£ remise. Commencing la latitude S3 deg. 3y mm. fees
lattoon on the Branch, and Afamaptlou on the Main
Lice), the Company owns thousands of acres well
adapted to the perfection of th's fibre. A settler hav
leg a family of young children, can turn their youth
fax labor to a moat profitable account in the growth
and perfection of this plant.
The vigorous exertions now making to obtain a sup
ply of reliable seed suited to the requirements of the
soil cf Illinois, will, it la hoped, speedily give a buQl
clcct amount to plant a great breadth of land.
MINING AND MANUFACTURES,
The great resources of the State. In Coal, Iron, Lead,
Zinc, toner'a Clay, Limestone, Saudat, ne. Ac, <tc.,
are almost ua'.uched; they await the arrival of enter*
prising and energetic men accustomed to convert them
Into gold.
Railroad System of Illinois.
Railroads intersect the whole State. 5U5.0C0.000 have
been invistea In completing the great net work that
U&ks every part cf tbe State Isto Immediate connec
tion with the surrounding States and the dlrecten
thorougniaree of commerce,
Tb© Illinois Central Railroad
Traverses the whole length of tbe State, from the
basks of the Mississippi and Lake Michigan to the
Ohio. As i'B nam*lmparts, theUallroacl runs through
the centre of tbe State.and on either side ot tna road
along its whole length lie the lauds offered for sale.
TO ACTUAL SETTLERS.
From the unprecedented advantages this Company
offers, it Isnrt surprising that It should have already
disposed of l.Stt',HXi acres of land. It Is now selling at
ihe rate of 5 ICO to ts per week. The population along
the line has trebled in ten years, and is now 811 8UL
The Company sell to actual cultivators, and every con
tract contains an agreement to cultivate.
Cities, Towns, Markets, Depots.
There are Flnety-Blght Depots on the Company's
■Railroad, giving about one every seven miles. Citlsr,
Towns and Villages are situated at convenient dis
tances throughout the whole route, where every de
rlrable commodity may be found as readily as In the
eldest cities of the Union, and where buyers are to be
metfor all klndsof Jarm produce.
EDUCATION.
Mechanics and workingmen will find the ftwacbool
system encouraged by the Slate and endowed with a
large revenue for the support of the school*. Children
can lire In eight of the sJiooU the college, the enurch,
end etc w op with the prosperity of the leading State In
the Great western Empire.
1,0 one who has visited this splendid region of conn
try can doubt that it equals the most favored descrip
tions that have ever been given of It; bat let any care*
fnl cbseiver visit It, ana he will intorm yon that the
half has rot been loldof the advantages It offersfor im
mediate occupation and Immediate returns. The farm
ers o: the Eastern and Middle States and Canada, are
moving to Illinois In great numbers; and It Is believed
that If these surpeolng advantages were made known
to the fain era, mechanics, manufacturers and work
ing population of over-crowdea Europe. they would
promptly avail themselves of the knowledge.
