t ■ "■ _■■JILBgg cant; and they mint do thia oneocd'tionalty. He was one of those who vood equarelv oh the ground that our a n in prosecuting this war should be to preserve the I ion and viDdica'e the government of the United St 'tea. All agreed to thin, but there was a difference of optuoa as to what meant should be employed lor thia purpose. Now, if, in the prosecution of hostilities, the al tvee afford aid to the rebellion, was it no: the part of wji tom to deprive the insurgents of this advantage ? If slivery shiu d be terminat'd by thia war, it should bo the greatest triumph mortal ever won over the greatest cr me ever cornu itted. Mr Steele, ol New York, said be had tuppoetd that •very sane mai conceded that Congress has no pow - tf in legislate on the subject of slavery in the States.— He had supposed that there were such thing* aa State ntfble and State soverignty, and prooeeded to submit w .at he conceived to be a few simple, common-sense views oathi slavery question. We cannut » d in re storing peace by contiuualrr stirring up bad blood aud quirrelhng with the Executive D pirtmeut, the military commanders, and others We cannot take direct con trol ot everything, a id mast therefore trust in tha coo ,l ined legal authorities. Th s Administration was not of his own choowing, yet he wou'd support il till the moa ner rebellion was crushed. The only way to sustain the tioverument ia to stand by tbe Constitution; for if we disregard lr, and trample oc the rights guarantied by il, how much belter are we than tbo rebels against whom we are routendiugv It was not true thvt slavery is an outlaw in the Constitution. It w*» a part of tbe Coosti tut on—of tie compact by which our tiovernmout was founded. Th* mad ravings of lauaticiam were deplore able at any time, but how much more ia a crisis like the present. He spoke of those who advocated general e mancipation, aa being infatuated by a strange insanity, actured by a thoprci.c.*! philanthrophy, and who would override tlie Oona'itution and the Uws. Mr. Wright, of Pen usy I vac is, remark# 1 that he w us re turned he-e as a repreae .tt'tvo by both foliticrl par tis* who who agreed on a common pisiform He wav elected a Union man, and as such was ready to aiacd or fa'L K»f»rriug to Mr. Buchanan1* constitutional ar guui'nt iu favor ot the emancipation of the slaves, he ap pssled to him during hi* momenta of red c ion, and when candor can take posession ol his mind, to estimate. If he can the consequ-nce» which would result from *uch a measure. He (Mr Wright) was not an advo cv e of slavery, but w.*s w iling to take the Coo-tit utiro Bar fk...er , gave it' to us.

Cixcnraaii, Jan. 21—Dispatches have been rtcaived at headquarters in Louisville, announcing that General Thomas continued In pursuit of the rebels until night. Our forces followed the rebels who ran before them in the wildest confusion,'like a flock of sheep, close up to their entrenchments on the north bant of the river. In front of their entrenchment* the rebels laid all night, expecting that we would storm them in the morn ing, tut with tne aid of their boats and barge* they managed to get across the river before daylight. They left behind all their artillery, ammunition, horse* and Mots, ard eighty wagon loads of quartermasters’ and medical stores fell into our hands. Our troop* had possession of their entrenchments ear ly this morning. After reaching the opposite side of the river the rebels dispersed in every direction. Two hundred deed and wounded rebel* were picked up on the Arid. General Zolliooffer wan found in a wagon, mortally wounded. Our lorn la not definitely ascertained, but It must be CQLsiderabl*. The surgeon of the Tenth Indiana regiment telegraph* that his regiment had seventy killed and weunded. Gen. Thomas’ division embraces some of tb* very best regimeuts in this department. As far as 1 e*n learn, tbe Ninth Ohio, the Tenth 1.1 di ms, the Second Minnesota, tb* Eighteenth regulars, the Fourth Kentucky, and the Tenth Kentucky regiments were engaged. Colonel Maneon’s brigade, includ eg the Tenth Indi ans, the K ghteentb regulars and some Kentucky regi ment*, reiLfoiced Gen. Thomas during Saturday night. They made a forced marched of twenty-two mile* through heavy roads, and managed to arrive three hours before the commencement of tbe flgbt, in a hich they took a glorious part, in ipite of their fatigue. Tbe tenor of all the official deepatebee received goes to show that the affair resulted in tb* most brilliant vic tory of the war. No prominent officers are ssid to be killed on our tide. Gen. hchoepf was ufiable to cut eff the retreat of the enemy, owing to the bluffy character of the country and the obstruction of the roads by felled timber. L -usviLts, Jan. 21 —There is bo new* from General Thomas to-day. No details of the Federal l$s* ha.e yet been receiveJ. Gen. Tbaipa* h*< taken the steemer end nine barge* in which the rebels conveyed tbelr force* across the Cum berland, and which in their precipitate flight they failed to destroy. Tbe theory at headquarters ia that using that boat to c mvey his troops aenst the river southward, and pro viding other mean* of transportation, Gen. Thorn vs has bp;n too busy to send tbe details qf tbe recent fltht. lUnnuoas, Jsu’y 21. The Baltimore douth of the J0h bays ihe statements qincerttog d jllicoft.-r are so conflicting that we doubt 1 hem all, Tne accounts are very wild and contradictory. The d.'ith of Zvllicofler ia not confirmed ; sod it is ominous of reverse that General Thomas h«a not furnished an ac count of his own losses or subsequent operations. The greet expedition from .Cairo seems to have proved a trsat failure. Troop* and boats have returned with ou> an attack. 1h ■ report in Saltier* on re 2tt h was that s gun qu i had returned to Torirt** Mooroe informing that five of Unmade's fl-tt had grounded in Pamlico hound and were burned to svoid capture by the Confederate*. fasniRicx, January 20.

Tow* Wills aid SrataiiS.—-A correspondent urge* the importance of preserving and opening all the well* and springe of good water in our city. H* savs : It is now obvious that we cannot rely upon the former sup ply of Northern we, and that the domestic supply must, during tho nrx: spring and summer, and peihap1, in fu ture yearn, be precarious and iLaliquato. Braided, the reservoir is liable to accideut, and the river water is oc ctsionillj so warm tod muddj, u to tw drunk nlocttot* lv by man or beast. Those wto remember the extraor dinary scenes of last summer, when all classes resorted to CoL RuUterfoord's well and other fountains ol pure w iter,somewhat after the Scriptural and Asiatic *tils,ne*d not be reminded of the great importance of the aubjsct. All of the old springs aud wells known in the traditions ot the city, for solt, pure and freah aparkilng water should be re-op med, aud our venerable townsman, Mr. Mordecai, should be invited (by a dilegation of old clli of course,) (o iraco ou. ibeir old water (uot lioc1) mark*, and to revive these ancient fountains of our youth." . Our correspondent cloees his communication with the following quotation from an abie writer on Water ««/> p'y of Towxi, ■‘in every care of the public supply from surface drain age or riven, the spriugs aud well* of the town should be rtltgxouely preserved, aud made available for the driuk of the population. No other water is well adapted for a beverage in the extreme seasons ol the year; and it is preferable to every other water, at any season.— There ehou'dalxeagi be a iprinklinj </ will ih * town, in addition to the pipe xejur rarrud into every houxe, if that water is not obtained directly from spriugs ; these wells should be maiulained at the publio sxpeuse, aud protected from the contamination of drainage, cess pools and buryiug grounds. “It should be within the power of every inhabitant of the town to procure at al> times a cooling draught, fresh from the louotaios ot mother earth. This precaution was generally overlooked when the new method of ex tending pipe-water to every bouse was first introduced in towus, hut alter a few years experience of rivsr sup pie-, attention is again directed to tho preservation of wells, as the only source* of s pure and exbiliratiog bev erage, umtt -cted by the vicissitudes of the season. It ia uot po-wible in the summer month* to obtaiu a water of the proper coolness, aud free trom vegetation and ani malcules, except from springs." Tux Militia.—Various rchemes and plans for the rt O'gsnirution ol the militia of this Commonwealth are uow peuding bef> r-• the Legislature. Which of them is the best it is difficult to s*y, but in our opiuioa, that plan, if there be any such, will come nearest the mailt which provides 1. That the volunteers now in the service shall not be required to re-eulist until the draft of tho militia is cx ha uetsd. 2 Thst the military strergth of the Slqte shall be forthwith eurolied and divided int„ two claises, the ac tive militia, and the reserve militia. t Tha', tltC.uun.ilir of volunteers now in service who aro willing to re-eulist shall be ascertained, aud that a sufficient uumbor of active militia detailed by lot to make the aggr-gite force ot volunteers and militia amount to-mem 4. Ttiat each county or corponttiaa full be required to luruish an equal per pCxiuui ot drafted militiamen,first being credited by the par ceututn ol its volunteers who bq«e been tpusb red into set vice sine* the commence ment of the war. t llist, shall constitute iky reserve militia, trout whom an additional draft malt tv made wheu necessary, elo. S That the dratted ntiltiia sh.il be detailed, by lot, as occasion uiiy future, to take the place ot volun t era dttfiiuing to re . uiisl. Without going further into details, we submit that the great okj els wbich the General Assembly should have iu view are, Tee preeerva'ion of tbe present regimental Oiganuuion, as iar as possible reserving, however, to tuo-thirds ot the commissioued oncers of a t,gimeut tbe power of de posing a debt otacer.
