Address 41 CHICAGO TRIBUNE,” Chicago, EL (£l]kaga tribune. TUESDAY, APRIL 28, 183 THE NEWS. Our success at Cape Girardeau, illssouri seems complete. The rebels arc in full flight, with our forces inclose pursuit. Our dispatches elsewhere, give the details of the attack and repulse, which was disas trous to the rebels. Gen. Curtis in his department of Mis souri has reproduced Gen. Burnside’s order with variations, which enhance its strin gency. If carried out, it will work needed reforms in St. Louis, and Missouri. Gen. Hascall, in command at Indianap olis, issues an order in yesterday morning’s papers, in that city, which is a sweeping and deadly blow at the butternut fra ternity, Our news from Murfreesboro shows that we art; beginning to play the rebel game, and gobble up small exposed posts. The lateafTairin Gen. Granger's commandisan excellent offset to some of our reverses of like nature. From Vicksburg we have the details of the running of the blockade by the last in stallment of transports and coal barges. Admiral Porter telegraphed to Wash ington on the ICth, that the river campaign in Arkansas was promising, and the whole aspect of affairs in that State encouraging for our cause. BRAGG AND BRECKINRIDGE. A report comes ol doubtful reliability that Breckinridge has shot Bragg at Talla- Loma. It may be true, but will require some further confirmation. The story has, however, this foundation: that a bitter feud Las for months past prevailed among these rebel chiefs. The visit of Jeff. Davis to Murfreesboro in December, 18G2, was solely for the pur pose of reconciling Bragg and Breckinridge and restoring order among the mutinous Kentucky troops. The cause of this mu tiny and quarrel was the enforcement of the penalty in the case of a Kentucky de serter. The law had not been enforced ngidly by Bragg, and on getting a court martial to condemn a Kentucky soldier named Asa Lewis, of Capt. Page’s com* pany, Glh Kentucky, he approved the sen tence cf death, coupled with a verbal re mark, that *• he’d be damned if he didn’t make an cvample of the accursed Kentuck ians.” Lewis had distinguished himself at Shiloh, and was highly popular with his comrades, who refused to allow him to be executed. Breckinridge also swore that Hie man should not be executed, and the whole army was soon in a mutin ous state, Ibe Tennesseeans sweaaing vengeance if a deserter from the 24th Tennessee was executed, and the Alabama troops claiming exemption for one of tbeir number. Bragg in despair, unable to quell the storm he had raised, called on Presi dent Davis, who visited the scene, and quelled the storm, by wbat means is not known. Lewis and the Alabamian were executed on the day after Christmas, Breckinridge ahd Hansom being present, and both exhibiting great feeling over the mailer. The Tennessee soldier was par doned. THE LATE ELECTION TO BE CON- TESTED. Steps Lave been taken to contest tbc re cent election in tins city, on tbc grounds of illegal voting, and already there is a flut tering among the guilty Copperheads,least ILcir stolen booty may be plucked from their hands. Enough is already known to warrant the assertion that the spurious ballots exceeded fifteen hundred I The men who have taken hold of this matter are determined to eift the matter to the bottom, No pains, no expense, will be Spared. The lawfully expressed will of the majority must be allowed to prevail, else our elections degenerate into a farce, and the freeman’s franchise becomes a mock ery. There is more at stake than the elec tion of the candidates on the respective tickets. If fraudulent voles be allowed to elect the copperhead ticket this spring, the Same game will be resorted to next next fall, next spring, and at every subsequent election. The villany must bo nipped in the bud, now, and the perpetrators exposed and punished. The municipal privileges of the citizens are at stake. The right of self-goverament is involved. Shall the ma jority of the legal voters of Chicago be permitted to elect their municipal officers, or shall the rabble of the surrounding towns come here on election day, and overslaugh the loyal citizens—that is the question to be determined. One ward, wc are informed, has been carefully canvassed, the names and resi dences ol eveiy adult male redding there in, obtained, and the result shows that the ballots cast in that ward exceed, by four hundred and vjneards , the t thole number of mai, nathe, naturalized and unnaturalized , tiring tn the ward! The spurious votes cast arc almost as numerous as the legal voles put into the box. If the fraudulent ballots of that single ward be purged from the returns, the entire Copperhead ticket is defeated, by majorities as large as those by which it is proclaimed elected, In this connection wc wish to say, that the Copperheads are invited to institute a searching scrutiny for illegal votes cast for the Union ticket. Their organ has charged the “ Union League” with importing votes. If they have any faith in the truth of this ridiculous falsehood, let them proceed to ; investigate it Not a straw of opposition will he placed in their path. We don’t believe that of the 10,095 votes cast for tho Union ticket, ten or even five will he found Me cal, while on the other hand, wc are quite certain that 1,500 to 2,000 unlawful votes were counted in the returns for tho Cop perhead ticket. VOTERS IN THE XEE CHICAGO AZK9IY. There arc yet living enough Chicago Republican voters in Gen. Turchin’s old 10th regiment to bare defeated Sherman and the whole Copperhead ticket, which was elected by imported Irish who volun teer to vote fraudulently lor the anti-Union ticket, Vat refuse to volunteer to fight for the country that protects and supports them. There are enough Chicago Republican voters in the Board of Trade battery, if they had been allowed to vote, to have elected Brvan and defeated Sherman. There are enough Chicago Republican voters in the Board of Trade Regiment, under Col. Frank Sherman, to have defeat ed the entire Copperhead ticket, and left a hundred to spare, if they had been per mitted to vote. Cok Sherman —Old Hove in’s son—would have headed the poll for Bryan and the Union ticket. There are enough Chicago Republican voters in Smith’s and Taylor’s Batteries to have defeated Sherman and the Copper head ticket. There are enough Chicago Republican voters in Seekers German regiment, now in Hooker’s army, to have defeated Sher man end the Copperhead ticket, twice over. There are enough Chicago voters in Col. Khoblesdorfs old regiment to have defeat ed Sherman. There are enough Chicago Union voters VOLUME XY. in CoL Bradlep’s regiment to Lave de feated the Copperhead ticket. There are enough Chicago Union voters in the Tates Phalanx, now at Port Royal, North Carolina, to have defeated Sherman and his ticket. There arc twice enough Chicago German Republicans in the old 24th regiment, un der Mihilotzy, to have beaten Sherman and his ticket. There are enough Chicago Union men in Gen. Julius White's old 87th regiment, to have defeated Sherman. There are enough Chicago Republicans in the 6th Illinois cavalry—Farnsworth's old regiment—to have defeated Sherman. There are enough Chicago Republicans in the 12th Illinois cavalry to have defeatr ed Sherman and his ticket. There are enough Chicago Republicans in Col. Dickey’s cavalry to have defeated Sherman. There are twice enough Chicago Union ists in Col. Eldridge’s Board of Trade regiment to have defeated Sherman. There are enough Chicago Union voters in CoL Joe Bell's cavalry to have defeated Sherman and his whole ticket. There are enough Chicago Union voters in the Railroad regiment to defeat Sherman. There are enough Chicago German Re publicans, who enlisted in Missouri regi ments to serve, under Fremont, to have overcome Sherman’s majority half a dozen times. There are enough Chicago Union men in Col. Hogc’s regiment to have turned the scale and hoisted overboard the bogus ma jority hove-in lor Sherman, had they been at home on election day. There are Chicago Union men enough in the Mercantile Battery, Bolton’s Battery and Bridges’ Batteiy to have shelled and sunk the Sherman majority, had they been hereto vote. There are loyal Chicago German troops in Capt. Thieleman’s company who have been in service nearly two years, and who were among the first to enlist in this city, whose votes, if cast at home, would have sabred Sherman’s hopes, and cat down his imported majority. The Marine Artillery (of unhappy expe rience,) the two hundred men enliked in Chicago for the Gunboat service, the crack Chicago company of Capt. John A. Thompson in the 18th Regulars, were en listed here, and lost their votes on the late election. They would have trebly reversed the scale and wiped out the bogus major ity of Hove-in-Sherman, had they been in Chicago on the day of voting. There are enough Chicago Union voters in each of the two regiments raised by Gen. Dave Stuart to have beaten the Cop peihead ticket In all these calculations we have estima ted the majority which the Chicago men in all these regimeulsnnd batlcrieswouldgive against the Copperhead ticket—if they were allowed to vote, as they ought to be. Ere long, these loyal men will return to Chicago, and when they do, Copperhead triumphs will be put beyond the reach of imported Irish votes. TJio Chicago Election. The election in Chicago last Tuesday result'd in a glorious Democratic victory. Sherman is elected .Mayor l»y 130 majority, and the new Conned will stand twenty Democrats and twelve Abolitionists, irno veto im 4.a ot larger titan last fall—an Increase that is mainly due to fraud. The AtmiuiODiuis Jiau control of the ballot-boxes in every ward, and it was therefore Impossible for the Democrats to poll (Illegal votes, even had they desired to do bo. —Macomb (111.) EagU % April 551 A. The writer of the above was in Chicago on election day, and was ejected from one of our hotels for wearing a Copperhead badge, and Instead of being tnmed loose upon the streets lie ought to have been sent south of the Fed eral lines toils secession friends,where:he properly belongs. He tells one truth, in his notice of the election, viz: The enormous “ increase of votes over last fall, is mainly du" to frauds." The allegation that the “ Abolitionists ” had coni rol of the ballot-boxes, and therefore it was impossible for the “Democrats” to poll illegal votes, gives us an opportunity to ex plain a thing or two, that ought to be kuown abroad, as well as at home. In the first place, the Copperheads had two of the judges of the Fifth Ward polls, and with this control of the ballot-box, polled between three and four hundred fraudulent votes In that ward, which was double Sherman’s declared major ity in the whole city. In tho next place, the Copperheads had practical control ol the Sixth IVard poll. The judges consisted of two careless Republicans, and ono active Copper head. The Copperheads taking advantage of the circumstance, poured from four to five hundred fraudulent ballots into the box. In the third place, the Copperheads delib erately resolved four months ago, to carry this city by illegal votes this spring. With this purpose in view, the first and most im portant step was to get the legislature to re peal so much of the election law as required a foreigner, when challenged, to show his nat uralisation papers or produce a witness, the same being a freeholder of the ward, to swear that he was actually entitled to vote at that poll. This important and salutary guard against illegal voting, was repealed, so far as it applied to charter elections in Chicago; and in lieu thereof, itwas provided that the Judges must receive a ballot, if the person offering it would swear he was a lcg-.il voter. Here the door was thrown wide open to fraud. The safeguards were removed and perjury inaugurated. Droves of Irish were imported from the surrounding towns, who presented themselves at the polls of the Irish sections of the city, among their coun trymen, and when challenged, listened to a flimsy oath, mumbled over in a half audible -tone, nodded in the affirmative at tho end of It, Landed in their Sherman ticket, and then marched off to tho adjoining Ward to repeat the swindle, afterwhich they vanished into the various lullgnbbins, and slunk out of the city when they become sufficiently sober to get aboard of a train. Bat all the fraudulent and double voting was not done by the imported Irish. Those residing in the city perpetrated a fair share of the frauds. It is entirely with- in the hounds of truth to state, that within the territory of the old Seventh and Tenth Wards, one-half of all the unnaturalized Irish voted once or oftoncr. The election law was changed expressly to enable themto exer cise the elective franchise, and they were not slow in embracing the opportunity thus offer ed. This Is plain talk, but It Is every word the naked truth, as the Copperhead leaders all know. The Sherman ticket was barely elected by polling for it, not less than sixteen I tmaraZillegal votes, which were procured in the manner above ‘Specified, and that is the way it was elected. Swear or Leave. [From the Nashville Union, 25th.] The rush yesterday at the capitol, of citi zens desiring to comply with the late order of Gen. Mitchell, was so great that it was found absolutely necessary to increase the number of clerks from four to twelve. By far the greater number took the oath of allegiance; but very few prefer ring the parole of honor. Wc pre sume that by the time the “ tea days 11 expire, almost all of our citizens will have shown tueir hands. As the pressure is great, to-day (bunday) will not be counted as one of the do .? 8 *. . e , think wc arc justified in stating that in a day or two an order will be issued for those who decline to take either the oath of allegiance or the parole of honor, to come forward and enroll their names, that they may be sent beyond the Federal lines. The authorities are In earnest, and will sec that the general order is strictly enforced. The Great Awakening, [From the Nashville Union, 25th.] A very intelligent and accomplished Michi gan officer told us yesterday, that himself and nine-tenths of Ms regiment were Democrats when they first enlisted, but that they had be come utterly disgusted with the treacherous and disloyal course of that party in the North. Every Tnan in the regiment, he thinks, heart ily endorses the policy of the Nashville Union. g*rOur blockaders in the Gulf of Mexico are doing a fine business. On the 3lst inst., there were thirty naval prizes lying at Key West, that had been captured by the block aders, and more were being added dally. The gunboat Sagamore had destroyed two block ade runners, loaded with cotton and grain. FROM GAPE GIRARDEAU. Details and Casnalties in the Late Battle. ENTIRE FEDERAL SUCCESS. The Enemy in Rapid Retreat. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Caiuo, April 37, 1683. The steamer Mary Forsyth has just arrived from Cape Girardeau. From her I learn the following particulars of that engagement and a list of the total casualties: KILLED. Serg’t Michael O’Neil. Co. C, let Wia. cavalry. Cyrus Phillips. IT, Irt Wle. cavalry. Di»»y Smith. A. Ist Nebraska. E E. Tindall, I,lst Nebraska. Mailln Aglcr, I, let Nebraska. Christopher Johnson, G, Ist Wis. cavalry, leg shot ofl’ near the think; amputated; died soon after. Wm. H.

Company E, Ist Wisconsin cavalry, were on picket duty, several miles out, on Saturday, and were surrounded by about three hundred rebels, and eight or ten of them captured and paroled. Capt. Shipman and Lieut. Ogden, with the remainder of the company, cut their way out, the Captain re ceiving a dangerous wound. In this affair we lost one man. Five rebels were killed, Lieut. Ogden running his sword clear through one, breaking it off and leaving it there. Not less than tt) rebels were killed, and about 230 wounded. Seventy-five of their horses are left dead on the field. The bravery of the Ist Nebraska is spoken of as beyond all praise. Qcn. McNeil de clares he wonld rather be Colonel of it tiwTl Major General In the regular army. The Forsyth left the Cape to-day at noon. Cannonading was heard five miles Irom town, when she left —supposed to be our forces in pursuit. Col. Glover’s Cd Missouri cavalry had ar rived within five miles, and was skirmishing with the enemy. It Is farther stated that 2,000 troops from New Madrid arc marching to the rebel rear. The Cape Girardeau bubble has burst. St. Louis, April 37.—A dispatch from Col. Pomeroy,* dated Cape Girardeau, 10 a. m., eays the enemy is moving off Cist .and gone. McNeill was starting in pursuit. There is no doubt but Gen. Van Dever will strike him to-day. Another dispatch from Gen. McNeill, some two hours later, states that Gen. Van Dever attacked tho enemy last night, taking a large number ol prisoners, horses, arms, &c. Gen. McNeill says: “I am in pursuit Of the flying enemy, who is retreating towards Bloomfield.” Cairo, April 27. —From Jonesboro we have the assurance that the attack on Cape Girar deau has not been renewed to-day. At hist accounts the rebels were falling back. Rein forcements have been sent up from Colum bus, and there is no fear for the result Gen. Plummer’s body, which was hnried here last winter, was forwarded to Washing ton by Gem Buford to-day for interment. LATER, News from Cape Girardeau says fifty-five or sixty rebels are known to have been killed, and2oo to 250 wounded; seventy-five rebel horses were left dead on tho field.

Tho reconnoi'Sance of yesterday, by Col. Gerrard, excited the rebels considerably. An officer came down to the bank and vigorously denounced such wholesale proceedings, and announced that in future they would not per mit them. The result is that they opened this morning upon our pickets with cannon. Tho pickets simply retired, and after an hour’s rapid firing, the rebels found out nothing and caved. Tho court martial at Stanford ad journed for a week. Matters are getting ex citing, and in a few days events may be worth telegraphing. Matters are otherwise quiet. FROM RQSIGRANS’ARMY. A REBEL CAMPmACKED AND CAP- [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Murtrzesboko, Term., April 27,15G2. Gen. Gordon Granger sent out his cavalry shortly after midnight, completely surprising and capturing the Texan Legion, posted eight miles from Franklin, between Columbia and Carter's Creek pike. The surprise took place at daybreak. The enemy were completely surrounded, and their entire force, consisting of nine commissioned officers, 112 men, 300 mules and horses, eight wagons, and all their camp equipage, arms and accoutrements were captured without the loss of a man on our side. Seve ral rebels were killed and wounded. Col. ’Watkins and Capt. Busscl of Gen. Granger’s staff, commanded the expedition. The rebel camp was only one mile from Van Corn’s main force. Gen. Payne telegraphs from Gallatin that a force of rebels are about to attack them on the Louisville road, near Franklin Kentucky, were attacked by 150 of our cavalry and routed, losing two killed, and two wounded, and six captured. Onr loss was four wounded. Sev enty horses were taken in Nashville, and vicinity and were distributed among onr cav alry to-day. Gen. T. L. Crittenden has a twenty days leave of absence. Rain to-night. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Nasnvn.Lr.Tenn., April 27,1563. Two companies of rebel prisoners have just arrived —130 from McMinnville and 120 from Franklin. The latter were captured this morning before daylight. Many of the for mer are citizens of Nashville, some recog nized as the recent incendiary robbers of the train near Lavergnc. Nashville, April 27. —A part of Green Clay Smith's brigade, consisting of 259 cavalry, commandcdby Col. Watkins ol the OtU Ken tucky regiment, is reported this morning to have*made a dash upon the rebel camp of the Ist Texas Legion, eight miles south of Frank lin, on Carter's Creek pike, and captured 12S rebels, including three Captains, five Lieuten ants, the same number of horses, fifty mules, one ambulance loaded with medical stores, and burned eight wagons and the arms of the rebels. Col. Brooks, commanding the rebel camp, •was captured, but subsequently escaped. The rebels formed a part of Gen. Whitfield’s brig ade. The latter is ft Tennesseean, and a native of Franklin, who acquired some notoriety In Kansas some years since. Five rebels were mortally wounded. There were no casualties onourside. The prisoners arrived here to night. Three thousand three hundred citizens, male and female, have taken the oath, giving bonds to Gen. Mitchell. Murfbkesboiio, April 26.—The weather is cloudv, but warm. Gen. Granger, with his regular brigade, who had gone out for the purpose of conveying provisions to Gen. Reynolds, returned to-day with IS9 prisoners. John Morgan himself had a narrow escape from being captured near McMinnville, lie was in company with Lieut. Col. Martin at the time the latter was wound ed by a cut.of a sabre in the hands of a mem ber of the 7th Pennsylvania cavalry. John artfully dodged the stroke intended for him and by dint of bard running got away. The news received here to-night indicates that Tuscumbia, Alabama, is In the hands of United States forces commanded by General Dodge. Several deserters from Tullahoma reached our lines to day. They are Kentuckians and represent that extreme dissatisfaction exists among all the Kentucky andTenaesscc troops in the rebel service. Nothing but the most iron discipline prevents them from deserting In a body. The mountain regions of Georgia and North and South Carolina arc still scenes of frequent conflicts between the rebel author ities and hundreds of insurgents who defy their power. The rebel papers give long accounts of the capture of onrgnnboat Diana at I’attcrsonville: men were on board, 60 of whom were In- to the 106 th New York and *~Jh ponnccUcut. Of tbla number ten were killed, Captain Peterson among them, and sixteen wounded, 05 taken prisoners and five missing. The rebels say they did not lose a man. There was & public thanksgiving on the CHICAGO, TUESDAY, APRIL 28. 1863. IMh nit., in Charleston, over the repulse of our gunboats. For the benefit of tho Union naval officers, I think it well to publish the following item from the Charleston Mercury: 4 ‘Oncof our most accomplished navy offi cers Is abont to start with a fine vessel on a tour of exploration, to rival the doings ol the Alabama, and another will be ready on the Ist of May under another gallant commander.’* The Mobile papers speak of the fight on the Oth inst., at Pascagoula, between six hundred of our men, assisted by some gunboats, and a rebel force. The rebels acknowledge consid erable loss, but as usual, chiim a victory, and say they captured three cannon. Brigadier General W. w. Maekall, recently on duty at Mobile, has been made a Briga*dier General and Chief of Staff. If the rebels really believe the assertions they have been for some time making concerning the re-cnforcenient of Bosecrans by Grant, 1 deem it certain that the main force has cvacuatedYicksburgand is now in front of Murfreesboro. A startling rnmor is current to-night that Gen. Bragg was shot and instantly killed by Gen. Breckinridge at TnUahoma, yesterday. A small party of rebels attacked the Louis ville ‘train on its passage from this city, to day. The rebels killed two prisoners. No damage was done to the track. FROM WASHINGTON. TROOPS FOR GARRISON DUTY. The Draft—Revenue and Fiscal Matters. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Washington, April 27,1883. The War Department has decided to enlist from 10,000 to 20,000 discharged disabled sol diers and officers, who may be physically un able to perform active service, and conse quently not subject to draft, but for garrison duty. This garrison corps will relieve an equal number of able-bodied soldiers, who will go to swell our armies in the field. A. B. Mullet, of Cincinnati, has been ap pointed to the Chief Clerkship of the Bureau of Construction in the Treasury Department. apportioning the uumher of troops to m raised under the Conscription act, troops already raised by each State will betaken in to account, but computation will be on a basis of three years’ men, and the nine months’ and two years’ men will be counted proportionately; that is, if a State has fur nished three regiments of two years* men, she will be credited just as if she had only furnished two regiments for full three years. The President has always disapproved of all the plans of taking Vicksburg through cut offs, and he is to be thanked for the recent successes in running the batteries, with all the consequences they involve. It is pre cisely what he has urged from the outset. The Treasury Department lias given up re issuing postal currency, which has been paid in, and a detail of Ladies is at work counting it, with a view to its destruction. Whenever it is necessary to pay out postil currency, new sheets are used. It is hoped that the fractional currency will be ready for issue before what is on hand of the old is ex changed. The Commissioner of Internal Revenue has decided that promissory notes, and memoran dums of the nature of promissory notes, whether over or under twenty dollars, must be stamped. The Mexican minister is packing up his archives, iu preparation for his departure. He had an interview with the President to day. ■Washington, April 27.—The statement that Mr. Chase will shortly put a loan of ten year bonds upon tbo market is wholly without foundation. Neither is it true than an agent of Mr. Chase’s abroad is authorized to accent a loan ol 8100,000,000. • The weather continues fine, and the roads will soon be in excellent condition. Nbw York, April 27.—Tho Herald has a spe cial dispatch, dated Nashville, Tcun., April 20th, which says: Several deserters report that 16,000 of the Vicksburg rebel army bad arrived at Tullaho ma, reinforcing Bragg, and that they had been sent to Manchester. This report is to bo re ceived with caution. Though, deserters confirm each other in their statements, they arc vague and indefi nite. It is known, however, that Braes has occupied Manchester with a large armyT Some deserters stale that the Kentucky, Tennessee and Missouri troops, in Bragg’s army, have lately been very mutinous, ami much trouble has been experienced in putting it down. The Tennesseeans laid down their arms, refusing to do duty. Prominent politicians in Pennsylvania have proposed to Gen. Ncglcy to nominate him for Governor on the Republican ticket. Hale and Forney think Covode cannot be elected. It is understood that Negley will decline, as bis whole heart is in the army. New York, April 27. —The Express learns that there arc private letters in the city stat ing that the policy of the British Government is now settled, viz: to resolutely stop the fitting out of any more privateers or vessels of wnr In British ports. The same paper hears that the rebel invest ment of Washington, K. C., was a feint to covortbe carrying off of all the grain in Hyde county in which the rebels were successful. FROM INDIANAPOLIS. [Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Indianapolis, April 27,156-1. It is understood here that Gen. Burnside has declined to restore Gen. Carrington to the command of the District of Indiana. The President has appointed cx-Governor Wright of this State as Commissioner to the World’s Fair at Hamburg. Brig. Gen. T. J. Ward of Rosccrans* army la here on sick leave. He will return next week. Thefollowing gentlemen compose the com mission sent to Brown county, the scene of the disturbances: His Honor, R. W. Thomp son, Hon. S. E. Perkins, Capt. John H. Far quahar, of the regular army, and Adj’t Gen. Laz. Noble. It will be the business of this commission to enquire Into the fids and causes whlchled to the recent riot in that county. Gen. Hascall published an order this morn ing, in which he states that be had no parti san feeling, but desires to confer freely with members of all political parties, and invites their hearty co-operation. Ho claims no rights, and has no desire to interfere with civil matters. He calls attention to General Burnside’s famous order No. SS, and under stands that it is being violated. All newspa pers and public speakers that counsel or en courage resistance to the conscription or any other law of Congress passed as a war measure, or that endeavor to bring the war policy of the Government into disrepute, will be considered as liaving violated the order, and will be treated accordingly. The country will have to be saved or lost daring the term of the present administration, and declares that all persons who are factiously and ac tively opposed to the war policy of the ad ministration arc os much opposed to the Gov ernment, &c., &c.

Porter presiding, for the trial of Sanford D. Talbott and Thos. Sulli van, on the charge of harboring and shielding persons who were enemies to the Govern ment, near Paris, Kentucky, and Thomas M. Campbell of the Confederate army, who was charged with being a spy. The court found the three men guilty, and imposed a fine of SI,OOO, and three month’s imprisonment on Talbott; or nntil such fine is paid, sixty days confinement in irons on Sullivan, and that Campbell be hung untilhe is dead. Gcu.

BOW THE BLOCKADE WAS RUN. CAKO. April 27.—Last Wednesday night, six transports—the Tigress, Empire City, Hoi izon, Anglo-Saxon,Moderator and Cheese man—attempted to run the blockade at Vicks burg. The Tigress was loaded with forage, tlie Horizon with commissary stores, and the others with various kinds of Government freight. All were protected on the larboard fide with cotton and hay bales. They left Milliken’a Bend at 9 o’clock, accompanied by the Von Plml, with Gov. Yates, Gov. Wood, and Generals Grant, McPherson, Logan, and some tno hundred prominent officers of the army on board. Vie dropped down to the rendezvous a f . Touug’sPoiut, and awaited the going down of the moon, at midnight. The Tigress led the way, without lights, intending to float down until the was discovered, and then steam through with the greatest possible speed. The other boats were to follow in the same manner, at considerable intervals. The Tigress had been gone half an hour, when a flash against the sky over the point, followed, in a space of time measured by twenty-lire pulsations of the heart, by r. peal as of distant, heavy thunder, which told us she was discovered, and that the upper batteiy bad opened upon her. The Yon Phul quickly dropped down to the head of the old cabal, and from that point we witnessed the grand demonstration. As the boats swept round the bend, battery after battery opened upon them, and we could trace the progress of each bv the discharges. We could see the red light leap from the can non’s mouth, and hear the howl of every shell. The great bonfires were lighted, over spreading earth and sky with a ruddy glow. The cannonade continued over three hours. Over sis hundred shots were fired, but, mirac ulous as it may seem, four boats escaped un scathed. The Moderator was disabled by an explo sion of shell in her engine rooms, but will soon be repaired. The Tigress was struck be tween wind and water, near the stern, tearing a hole largo enough to sink her in a short time. She is thought to bo a total loss. The whole thing, however, was a complete success. The expedition was commanded by Col. C. D. Lagrow; the officers, pilots, emri neers and crew were volunteers from various regiments. Over a thousand men offered their services. We Lave now nine gunboats, two rams and seven transports, besides a large number of flat-boats and barges,-below Vicksburg. No one was killed, and but three wounded —one pilot seriously, Gen. Grant went to New Carthage Last Thursday. It is almost certain that large bodies of rebel infantry have left Vicksburg to reinforce Bragg, and that the place is now held by artillerists only. We must not, how ever, look for its immediate fall. A steamboat captain reported here (at Cairo) last night, that our forces had evacuated Cape Girardeau. It is not believed here. Inrrivcd here this? tiorning from Vicksburg, whither I had been summoned by Gen. Grant, on a charge of having sent you contraband news. The whole matter was a misunder standing. I have been honorably and uncon ditionally discharged from arrest. Cairo, April 27.— The health of the troops at Young’s Point, Lockport, Millikcn’s Bend and Lake Providence, is excellent, and never could be better. Tbe encampments are on good ground, and the soldiers are In excellent spirits, and resolved to take Vicksbnrg. Gen. Grant has removed his headquarters to New Carthage. Important movements are close at hand. It is believed that rebel infantry have been sent from Vicksbng to reinforce Bragg, and that only artillery hold the place. The rush for commissions in negro brigades continues. Some ten negro regiments have already been formed. Negroes arc coming and bringing hundreds of mules with them. God. Steel destroyed over a million bush els of corn and quantities of bacon, and cap tured 500 mules aud nearly as many cattle. The scare at Mcmxihis lias completely sub sided. THE WAR IK ARKANSAS. Dispatch from Admiral Porter. Washington, April 27.—Admiral Porter sends the following dispatch to the Navy De partment: Mr?«isPirpi Squadron, I Yazoo River, April 16,1563. ) Sib: We have been threatened, for some time past, with an attack from the Arkansas rebels in steamers. Every provision was made to meet it. Lieut. Col. Andrew Sef fridge saw the difficulty in defending the mouths of the Arkansas and White rivers while kept so far apart by the useless neck of land, a:.d proposed to me to cut it. I ordered - iii to do so, and he passed through with his vessels in twenty-four hours after we cut the bend, thus saving a distance often miles. The mouths of the Arkansas and White rivers are now brought close together, and a small force can defend ~both. One of the worst points for guerillas is also cut off, as these pests of the human race could from the isthmus attack a vessel on one side, and he ready to meet her on the other as she came around, the distance being ten miles around and half a mile across. I have force enough in the Arkansas and White rivers to present any attack. FBOill CALIFORNIA* Revenue Matters—The Union League on the Pacific* The Pacific Ballroad Scheme* San Francisco, April 20.—Arrived to-day, sterner Oregon from Mexican ports. Sailed yesterday, steamers Rangoon, Bovd and Cali fornia. It is understood that the General Government has purchased here a fleet of steamboats, for coast aud harbor service, In cluding the Washington and California, from the Pacific Steamship Company; the Panama and Oregon, from Benjamin Uollidav; aud the Herman, from John T. Wright. The ves sels were immediately razeed, and refitted for active service. The authorities have warned large dealers in arms and ammunition, not to sell canon without first Informing thorn. The Collector of this portastonished several largo Importing firms,* connected withrccent fraudulent duty cases, by seizing their books, under the act of Congress, of the 3d of March last. Seamen are scarce. Several ships for the East and Europe are detained by the difficulty In celling hands. Sacramento, April 19.—The Union League movements were inaugurated last evening in a great meeting at Agricultural Paviflon, Speeches-were made hy Gov. Stanford, Gen. Wright, the commander of the Pacific De partment, Senator Conucss, and various members of the Legislature. Senator Con ness In the course of Ids speech noticed the reports circulated at the East in regard to his Erobablc co operation with the Copperheads. !e indignantly repudiated any such inten tion, and defended the Administration. He eulogized the President, and denounced as the real Abolitionists, those who arc striving to abolish the Government and the nation. The meeting was enthusiastic and loyal. The pledge was largely signed. Union meetings were also held at Marysville and other towns, and measures adopted to extend the loyal or ganizations to every county and State. Sacramento, April 25.—1n addition to the appropriations of $1,500,000 from the coun ties or San Francisco, Sacramento and Placer, the bill granting State aid of SIO,OOO per mile to the Central Pacific Railroad Company, passed the Legislature yesterday. This ap propriation comes direct from the treasury, and with the State aid already granted, se cures beyond doubt the early completion, of the railroad across the Sirrc Nevada moun tains. The first division of the road is graded already. The War In Missouri. Bt. Lons, April 27.—The Democrat’s special Irom Patten, Bolder county, dated yesterday, says: Mannadnkc, with 3,000 men and six pieces of artillery, left here night, on the Cape Girardeau road. He stripped this sec tion of everything robbing Unionists and secessionists alike. Qls train consists of a hundred and fifty wagons, loaded with plan ner. Cannonading now heard in the direc tion of Capo Girarjeau. If he remains there he will be annihilated by the command under Gen. Vandcver.. If ho retreats in a southeast erly direction., he will be hotly pursued by our forces. Wc have already taken a number of prisoners. FROM SUFFOLK. Heavy Skirmishing on the Nanse- mond. GALLANTRY OF THE BATI. Washington, April 27.—At the latest intel ligence received here up to yesterday noon, all was quiet at Nansemond, above and below Suffolk. Refugees report that the recent at tack on Suffolk was in the character of a foraging expedition. A grand foraging expe dition is the best understanding between our land and naval forces. Few York, April 27.—This is an exciting day in stocks. A Fortress Monroe letter of the 25th inst. to the Commercial says: Yesterday morning a force of Infantry, cavalry, and artillery, un der Gen. Corcoran, were sent out from Suf folk on the Edenton road to drive the enemy ont of their rifle-pits, which were doing a great deal of damage. Our forces advanced cautiously, and drew the fire of the enemy. Our artillery then opened on the rebels, which was returned by them. The infantry was ordered to charge the rifle-pits, which were carried at the point of the bayonet, dislodg ing the rebels. Our cavalry started in pur suit and succeeded in capturing a number of prisoners. The enemy was driven back sev eral miles, and fell back on the main body of Longstreet’s array, which is heavily en trenched. Foutp.ess iroxiioE, April 25.—Rumors Iwtc reached here that our pickets were Driv en in on the Kunscmond this forenoon, and that there were Indications of more skirmish ing in that direction. XJEE FKEXCH EV MEXICO. York, April 27.—The Herald says: From Mexico we are in receipt of official accounts up to the 31st of March, Inclusive which throw quite a different aspect ou the state of a flairs there. From these it would appear that instead of the Mexicans havin'* suffered a defeat, as published through FrcncS sources, they have invarjablv repulsed their assailants before Puebla—that the city still baffled the French mllitarv skill and valor. Kot being in receipt of anything positive through French channels since the ISth of April, leads to the supposition that the Mexi cans have as yet been successful in their de fence of Puebla, and that the French are as far from its capture as when they first In vested it.” The New Orleans Era of the 19th says: “Wc arc indebted to Mr. Kinney, United Slates Consul at Monterey, for the following: TJ. S. Consulate, Monterey, April 3,1863. “To the Editorof the Era: “The Government express arrived here lart night, bringing news from Puebla of the re pulse of the French forces after three days’ lighting. 1 send yon a bulletin extra, which contains official dispatches. As thU goes bv special express to Matamoras, I hive no time to make yon any translation. This news is generally credited, and is undoubtedly true iu the main. (Signed) “M. J>L Kinney, “ United States Vice Consul.” ANOTHER VERSION. New Yoke, April 37.—The New York 7n- Zmnchas official news from Mexico to April Ist. The reported loss of sixty pieces of ar tillery and 8,000 men, by the French, is un true. The news brought via San Francisco is mainly correct. The French suffered several repulses at Puebla, but finally compelled the Mexicans to abandon Fort San Janier, but not till they removed all their artillery and am munition. To April 7th nothing favorable to the French had reached Vera Cruz. The War in Virginia, Headquarters Aiwnr or the I Potojiac, April 80,1533 f The enemy has increased bis force along the heights back ot Fredericksburg, and strength ened bis pickets. The camps are much more numerous, and their troops can be seen drill ing at almost all hours of the day. No intel ligence of importance has been received from the other side of late. Affairs remain quiet on the npper Rappa hannock, though squads of rebel cavalry still prowl along our lines. Fairfax Court House. April 26.— James A. Williams, of Illinois, returning from a visit to Loudon county, brings intelligence ot Har vey Sherman, captured recently at Dralnos villc. Williams met Sherman on Friday, the 17th, the day after he was reported hung, at a house three miles from Leesburg, towards Middlebury. He was under guard of three men, and stopped there for breakfast. Ho was In the best of spirits. Gen. Stahl is untiring in his efforts to cap ture the whole gang. Reports state that Mos by’s command is hovering about this place. Tlio Rebel Pirates. New York, April 27.—The prize steamer St John, from Port Royal the 23d, arrived this evening. She was captured on the Ist lust. by the steamer Stetlme off Cape Roman. She is bound to Boston, and will proceed af ter coaling.

There were in port about thirty prize vessels, whose eases were yet to he disposed of by the Court, and almost every day added to their number. The gunboat Sagamore, duringa cruise up the west coast, had destroyed two blockade run ners loaded with cotton and grain, at Bay Port, after a sharp contest with the rebels. From St. I*onis. St. Louts, April 27.—Gen. Curtis has is sued an order similar in purport to that of Gen. Burnside, but far more elaborate in its definition of the offences enumerated, quoting copiously from the highest military authori ties and articles of war. All officers of this department are strictly enjoined to curry out the provisions of this order. An. Illinois Rioter Arrested* [From the Cincinnati Gazette, 27th.] On Saturday afternoon John SUoor, a Lieu tenant in an Illinois regiment, was arrested by the police as a deserter, and sent to the military prison.
