"Washington Correspondent of the Cincinnati
Enquirer.
Washington, July 21, 1S64.
To the Editor of the Enquirer:
Since I closed my let. erst coon, a new
sensation has appeared on the political
uubiu. j us wora reace tas been uttered
this afternoon as if it bad some signifi
cance. We find that two prominent friends
of the Administration have, with the direct
approval and aid of Mr. Lincoln, visited
Richmond, held conferences with Jeff. Da
vis And his Secretary of War, and returned
highly pleased with the courtesy with which
they were received and treated at the Con
federate Capital. Thea on the other side,
we have the correspondence between certain
Confederate gentlemen, Horace Greeley and
the President in relation to a restoration of
the Union by means of peace. No other talk
has beeu heard this afternoon, except about
these two missions. Though neither of the
quasi commissioners those from the North
to Richmond, nor those at Niagara bad
official avthority, yet each acted with the
consent of its respective government; and
that is a mode often resorted to bv belliger
ent parties, to ascertain the sentiments of
the other preliminary to regulate authorized
negotiations.
The Commissioners to Richmond vpk
Colonel Jos. F. Jaques, of the 73d Illinois
volunteers, and Mr. Edward Kirke, a gen
tleman of some literary pretentions and it is
well understood they went to Richmond to
ascertain, if the war could not be stopped by
a return of the seceeded states on terms
alike honorable to boih parties. They were
in Richmond three days, had free confer
ence with Mr. Davis and his Secretary, Mr.
Benjamin, on the subject of their visit.were
treated like gentlemen, and returned in
good spirits.
You have doubtless read the result of the
attempt made by the Southejn Commission
ers, at Niagara, to obtain an interview with
Mr. Lincoln. It was a failure. The con
trast between the conduct of the authorities,
at Richmond, towards Messrs. Jaques and
Kirke, and that of Lincoln to Messrs. Clay
and Liolccmb, is a painful one to the people
of the North. It shows there are gentlemen
at the head f the government at Richmond,
and a boor at the head of the government
at Washing. The former are not afraid to
be 'talked to on tbe subject of our difficul
ties by even unofficial visitors, wnile the
latter seems to think that not only his own
aignuy, out tne cause of the North itself,
wouia oe compromised by a conference with
gentlemen from the Confederaoy. Human
ity and civilization will accord to the au
thorities at Richmond tbe meed of praise
for theij willingness to listen to any person
on the subject of peace who comes within
their lines, by permission of tbe President
of the United States.
Mr. Lincoln lays down a finality, which,
without being first acceded to by tbe South,
will preclude any conference for a settle
ment. That finality is the unconditional
abolishment of slavery. lie will not listen
to peace on any other terms. He will not
bear what tbe South may have to say. He
close all avenues of conciliation except
through that one door. He says the war
shall not stop until the blacks are all freed.
He says that this is not a war for tbe Union.
but a war for tbe negro. He says that ha
orders coEscriptions, that men are torn from
their families, tbeir relatives ana mends not
to restore the Union, but to free tbe negro
He admits that we are making an enormous
public debt .that will bring untold sorrow
upon toil and labor,' not for our liberty or
the protection of our government, or toe
preservation of our national life,but to make
tbe negro like the white man. He sets up
condition precedent, which must be per
formed before tbe seceded States can return
to tbe Union, and which he has no authority
to impose. This war is to be continued for
oo other object than the abolition of slavery,
Mr. Lincoln gives that to be distinctly un
derstood. The country will know hereafter
precisely what tbe war is continued for.
Every tolilet will know what be Is fighting
lor, and every one that is killed, will lose
his life cot foe tbe Union, the Stars and
Striper, but for the negro.

EXECUTIVE OFFICE.)
. Fbahkfort, Kt., July 22, 1864 $
To the Officer of Elections and Citizens of
Kentucky:
On the 1st Monday in August next an
election throughout tbe State, will be held,
to fill various Important county and district
offices.
The Constitution makes it the duty of
tbe Chief Execu ive ' to take care that the
laws be faithfully executed."
This duty can only be performed through
tbe agencies given by law for tbeir execu
tion, All laws roust be 'executed' through
tbe appointed agents, and in tbe manner
prescribed by law; otherwise the pretended
execution will be a violation of law.
The officers of election are tbe only agents
through whom the election, under the Con
stitution and laws, can be lawfully conduct
ed. It is the duty of the officers of election to
gee that it be conducted in conformity with
tbe Constitution and laws of the State.
The right of free suffrage is secured to ev
ery citizen having the legal qualification to
vote, and adequate penalties are denounced
against "all undue influence thereon from pow
er, bribery, tumult, or other improper practi
ces" Every good citizen, who would preserve
the right of 'free suffrage, should give his
assistance, when required, to aid the Offi
cers of election in the faithful discharge of
their duties, acoording to law.
Tbe Officers of Election, legally appoin
ted have the exclusive right to determine
whether any one who demands to vote, has
the requisite qualifications fixed by the
Constitution and laws; and any attempt, di
rectly or indirectly, to interfere with or con
trol the exercise of that discretion; or any
imposition by them or by others of any test
or oath upon tbe voter, other than that pre
scribed by law, will be a violation of the
law, and an infraction of the right of 'free
suffrage;' and will subject the offender, who
ever be may be, to the penalties fixed by
law. As all the citizens have a common as
well as an individual interest, in preserving
'free suffrage' to those by law entitled there
to, I appeal to all, regardless of their polit
ical, partizan, or persocal preferences, to
give their earnest aid in and co-operation
to the faithful execution of the election
laws. Bear in mind, that each should have
Disqualifications tested by the rules pre
scribed by law, and that, while it is in the
discription of the judges and officers of elec- :
tion to require of every voter to submit all
to every legal test, yet any test or oath not
prescribed by law can not be imposed upon
ary voter; aca tne imposition oi any un
lawful test to the exclusion of a
voter,
stamps peijury upon the soul of such offi
cers, and subjects to the penalties denoun
ced by law. Trusting that tbe officers and
citizens will honestly and faithfully observe
the laws, I propose to direct your attention
to the only tests which can be legally im
posed. Tbe cocstitution declares that, 'every free
white male citizik of the age of 21 years,
who has resided in the State two years, or
in the county, town, or city, in which he
offers to vote, one year next preceeding the
election, shall be a voter; but such voters
shall bava been for sixty days next prece
ding the election a resident of the precinct
in wbicb he offers to vote, and he shall vote
in said precinct, and not elsewhere.'
To be qualified to vote, the person must
be free must be white must be a male
must be a citiztn, either native born or nat
uralized, and have the residence of two
years in the State, and sixty days in the
precinct; or one yearln the county, town, or
city, and sixty daysinthe precinct where
be offers to vote.
If any one of these tests be wanting the
voter should be excluded.
When officers of election do not know a
person offering to vote to be a qualified
elector, it is their duty to interrogate him
under oath as to his qualification. 'If form
his statement ho oppears to be qualified be
shall be admitted to vote, unless bis right
:s disputed by one of the Judges or Sheriff,
or some other person present. If so dis
puted, the Judges shall hear witness, not
exceeding two in number on each side, as
to hispualifications, and decide as may ap
pear right from tbe proof and the statement
of the party'. 1st Revised Statutes, 434
Rules by which officers are to determine
the residence acd citizenship of an elector,
are prescribed in Article 3, Chap. 32, page
432 to 435, vol. 1, Revised Statutes.
Citizenship, whether by birthright or nat
uralization, is lost, aud all right to vote, by
committing the offenses embraced in the act
approved Mar:h 11, 1862, known as the
law of Expatriation, viz;
Chapter 50U AN ACT to amand chapter
15 of the Revised Statutes, entitled 'Cit
izens, Expatriation, and Aliens.'
5 1. Be it enacted by the General Assem
bly of the CommonioeaWi of Ksntuclcy
That any citizen of this State who shall en
ter into the service of tbe so called Confed
erate States in civil or military capacity or
t r t r tVia EArif!(a nf 111. ar a 1 1 1 Pfnvinlin

or military capacity, or havlog heretofore
entered such service of either the Confeder
ate States or Provisional Government, shall
continue in such service after this act takes
effect, or shall take up or continue in arms
against the military forces of tbe United
States or tbe State of Kentucky, or shall
give voluntary aid and assistance to those
in arms agaiostsaid forces, shall be deemed
to have expatriated himself, and shall no
longer be a citizen of Kentucky, nor shall
he again be a citizen, except by permission
of tbe Legislature, by a general or special
statute.
5 2. That whenever a person attempts or
is called on, to exercise any of tbe constitu
tional or legal rights and privileges belong
ing only to citizens of Kentucky, he may
be required to negative on oath the ex
patriation provided in the first section of
this act; and upon his failure or refusal to
do so, shall not be permitted to exercise any
such riht or privilege.
3. This act to be of force la thiity days
from aad after its passage.
Iffan applicant to vote is believed to come
within tbe provisions of tbe Expatriation
act aforesaid he should be required to neg
ative, on oath, the facts set forth in the 1st
section as disqualification. In times like
tbe present, in many localities, it would not
bean improper exercise of caution, to re
quire all applicant to negative on oath the
acts whrch expatriate these who commit
them. Butunder pain of violating the law,
let nothing be added to, or diminished from
the oath prescribed by law. The law re
quires tbe person offering to vote should
state on oath, that lie has not entered into the
service of the as called Confederate States , in
either a civil or military capacity nor into the
service of Uie so called Provisional Government
of Kentucky in either a civil or military capa
city, since the 0th day of April 1862, nor has
he continued in such service since that date', nor
has he given since thvt date any voluntary aid
and assistance to those in arms against the
United States or the State of Kentucky.
Tbis embraces all that any voter upon the
subject of expatriation can be lawfully re
quired to state on oath. The embodying of
any other facts will be violation of the oath
and duty of tbe officers of election.
These rules embody the existing law in
regard to all elections in Kentucky, except
that, at a Presidential election, the State
are allowed, by express statute, to vote In
their respective camps.
As the chief Executive I enjoin upon all
officers charged with the execution of the
assistance of all good citizens, as they would
preserve their chartered liberties, cordially
to assist the constituted authorities to "take
care that tbe laws be faithfully execute 1."
THOS.E. BUAMLETTE.
Slovement of the Guerrillas in thin
State.
From the Louisville Democrat.
From tbs Cumberland Ritkb. In the
Democrat, some days since, we made men
tion of the capture and burning of the
steamer St. Louis, on the Cumberland riv
er. We understand that the river, from the
mouth to Clarksville, Is infested with guer
rillas, and now that the river has become
low, they will endeavor to capture all tbe
boats that ascend that stream The guer
rillas along the banks are in squads of from
twenty to sixty, and only fire on such boats
as are escorted by the gunboats.
We yesterday received a letter from a
gentleman on board of the steamer Mercu
ry, which gives the following particulars of
the attack on the beats in tbe Cumberland
on the 18th. Before the St. Louis was
burned, tbe barge of coffee and a barge in
tow of the Mercury were both burned.
The guerrillas, after they got possession of
tbe St. Louif, commenced a wholesale
species of robbery, and not a passenger or
one of tbe crew escaped, all being relieved
of their tnoney and other valuable.
They also entered the e'erk's office, broke
open the safe, and took from S503 to 600
At tbe time the St. Louis was fired, there
were a number of negroes in the bold, two
of whom perished in the flames. Among
the crew of tbe boat they recognized one
negro man whom they claimed belonged to
John Morgan. They carried him away
with them. The Mercury, which attempt
ed to take on board the crew of the St.
Lonis, was attacked, but succeeded in back
in out in the stream before the guerrillas
! had a chance of boarding her. Capt Wilkes ,
who had command ot toe aiercury, started
np the stream with his steamer, and the
rebels, seeing his movements, cut across the
fields and shot at tbe boat as she approach
ed. Some 100 shots were fired, four of
whioh struck the pilot-house, but fortunate
ly no one was hurt.
The Cumberland Id still infested with
these gangs of guerrillas, and no boats are
able to ascend that stream
without being
accompanied by gunboats'
Guerrillas at Clovebport. A private
letter from L'loverport s'ates that, on Thurs
day night. I lie quiet of that peaceable town
was disturbed by the entrance into their
midst of about forty guerrillas, under com
mand of one Bill Porter, who Is said to be
a notorious character. At the time they
entered the towa they had in their posses
sion some seven or eight horses, which had
been stolen on the road between there and
llirdlnsburg. When they entered the town
tbey placed pickets on the principle roads
and would allow no one to pass. That
night they encamped at the fair grounds.
Some of the men came to the city, procur
ad whisky, and in a short lime the entire
party were Intoxicated. Tbey entered the
town and made night hideous with their
yells, and towards morning they took all
the good horses and left, leaving ther bro
ken djwa ones in the place of the good hor
ses, which tbey no doubt callsd an excel
lent swap. Our informant did not state in
whet direction tbey went. Beyond steal-
in the horses, they comm men no aepre-
dations upon the citizens
An-v.TDa i t FT rvnr.Rin! . Our latest
Arraiud " .
news up to the time of tbis writing, is that
hut a smjll force of guerrillas appeared in
the vicinity of Henderson on Thursday, and
no fighting occurred, home correspond
euce was held between the Federal com
mand and the rebel troops, but so many
HiiTprnnt versions were put upon it, that we
are unable to ascertain the facts in tbe case
The most reasonable of all the reports is
that the guerrillas, hearing that two of thier
nnrtv were to be executed to revenge me
to revenge tbe death of Colonel Pool, made
the demonstration aginst Henderson to pre
vpnt the execution, and. it possible, rescue
the prisoners. Parties visited Henderson
and, as we learn, procured an order that tbe
prisoners should aot be executed uniu mr-

The Great Battle of Friday.
Washington, July 25. The Republican
extra say dispatches to the Government
represent that a great battle was fought at
Atlanta oo Friday, resulting in. horrible
slaughter and a complete repulse of the ene
my at evry ; point. Tbe rebele, holding
the largest part of the city, assaulted our
works oo that day with great fury, evident
ly expecting to drive our forces out of the
ci'y-
The 15th corps, commanded by General
Frank Blair, seemed to be the speeial ob
ject of rebel wrath, as they massed against
it in overwhelming force. The 15th receiv
ed the shock gallantly, and held its own
nntil General Dodge, with tbe 16th Corps,
came up, when the rebels were hurled back
with great slaughter.
General Logan, at the head of tbe 17lh
Corps went into battle with the rallying cry
of 'remember McPhcrson! This corps as
well as Blair's both constituting the army
under Major General McPherson, fought
desperately tbe news of tbe death of their
brave commander having been communica
ted to tbem just before going into battle.
Our troops buried one thousand rebels
left on the field within our lines beside
which the rebels buried many of their own
dead near their works. It is estimated that
tbe rebel killed and wounded on Friday
will exceed six thosand.
Our loss will reach twenty-five hundred.
The 15th Corps suffered severely.
While the work of buryins the doad
and removing the wounded was going on
Saturday, Sherman's heavy artillery was
playing upon tbe city. Atthe same time
large fires were observed to be caused by
the destruction of supply depots and other
rebel property which the enemy could not
carry off and dil not wish to have fall into
our hands. This is considered evidence ol
their intention to evacuate tbe place.
Several rebel Generals are reported killed
