Tw raef. Th Cincinnati CmmrridMTi that "two facti deoRacd lh et moat ccerity in our military opcrtion the enormous cort of the wir, nd the coming lieitfrl terms in the Southern climate. It will not do for the wr to drag through the uraror. Tbe decisire work raun be done quickly Abolitionism Aiding the Rebellion. A very intelligent millury officer, mho has been in the sertice In Western Virginia, Kentucky and Tennessee, an who has taken pain to adrie himself as to the sentiment of the j-eo-j4e in those sections of the country, expressed to es his conviction that abolition legislation in the present (ewa of Congress Lad done and was doing more efficient work in fostering disunion U'm in the South, to widen the breach between
the two ectious than all the efforts of the secession leaders and the rebel armies. The unceasing agitation of the negro question in Congress for party purposes, culminating as it has in the passage of the bill for the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia by the Senate and Mr. Lt.icoiJi'i resolution favoring general emancipation, is weakening not only but is destroying (he confidence of the Union men of the South in the declarations and pledges of Congress that the war was to be prosecuted alone for the restoration of the Union, without interference with or intention to Impair the constitutional rights and institution;) of the State. No practical good can be accomplished in the present state of public sentiment by the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia. It will not give freedom to a slave, except tho infirm and worthies, and they will be come charge upon the government for their support if emancipate 1. And this is but the initiatory measure among the series which will be aloptM by the present dominant party for the freeing of negroes and thus strengthening rebellion. The people of the Northern States do not want a horde of free negroes thrown upon them, neither are they willing to be taxed to "ransom" the worthless portion of that population. The true policy of the Government is to let the negro alone, to cease the agitation of the slavery qne?tion, and prosecute the war for tho restoration of the Union and the suppression of the rebellion, without reference to its effect upon the servile race. In a word the best way to destroy secessionism is to put down Abolitionism. If the people of the South can b assured that non-intervention with slavery by Co egress in either Sute or Territory is the fettled policy ol the Government, secessionUm will diwrpear like the dew before the morning sun. 'But if Abolition legislation prevails in Congrers, we may overrun the South by our armies, but we shall only cast down a hostile peo pie ready to turn upon us whenever the opportunity offers, and the attempt to keep them in subjectn will probably result in national bankruptcy. Abolitionism developed secession; Abolitionism ia now aiding rebellion, and we can not hope for peace and Union until this originating caue of our national troubles is deprived of its power to do further mischief.

From the Detroit Free Tre The Alleged Contpirury in MUIi Igau In th debate which we published, which took place in Con grew, in the existence of a conspiracy ngainst the Government iu Michigan, it will be seen that Mr. Ch uniler stated ihifto his certain knowledge the Knights of the Gulden Circle did Mia eed in yetting a large number of the worst tri '.oti iu the United State.- into the Federal army, ami they are there now." A large number of tue orst traitors in the Uuited Sutes; not one, or two, or twenty, but a large number, and Mr. Chuidier kuows who they are, aud yet he allows them to remain where they can blight the counsels of the brave. Why has lie not denounced them lone since? Why has he not exposed them to the infamy they so richly deserve? He hs ttie tertmin knnttbrJy of their tre.ison, he knotr that they are plotting the ruin of the country. It U within hi power to bring them to piini-hmcnt, nd jet it is by mere ccident that the fact is brought to light that he has thi knowledge, and
tili allows those foes of the country to plot their J
treason, without taking one step to protect the country meinst the danger. If lie allow a tr.iitor to remain, knowing hiru to he euch, without denouncing h:ui, he is an accomplice, :m accessory after the fact. We mink this speech of Senator Ch.ind'er re fjuires the Senate to raise a committee at once
to thoroughly examine this whole subject. If the-ie is conspiracy ;tg:tin.t the Government in i Michigan, let us know it.

Tlie Case of Secretary- Smith
We find the following intimations affecting the
Integrity of the Cabinet officer from Indiana in our exchmges. The New York Sun of Friday says:
The World intimate hat there is something wrotig in the Department of the Interior, pre sided over by the above official, and this intimation is partially confimed by the Cummer rial. It is probably true. To those conversant with the antecelents of the Secretary, merchant in the iron trade particularly, and other branches generally, the appointment of Secretary Smith was a mystery, and they expected anything he took in hand would apeelily become one. A prominent Senator returned from Washington in October last, boldly avowing that there was but one truly honest man in he Administration, and that w President Lincoln. This was before Stanton's appointment. The Chicago Timet remarks upon the same subject: "Grave and probaidy valid charges are urged against the Secretary of the Interior," savs the

A correspondent writing under date of the 2d int. from Island Ten says: Our chronic dullness was relieved ye?terdar by a bore that eometh'jig t about to happen. The hope is baed on preparation, visible and sup posed, and upon actual occurrences. We believe that we are on the eve of a fight, but we h ive believed the same thing so mnny times, without any definite result, that we have come to lo;e faith in the future. A bold exploit was achieved by our troops on Tue-Klay niht. A party of soldiers from Col. 11 u ford's, commind, about fifty in number, went cown the river in yawl boats, and entered the up per baery in the rebel fortification, spiking the gurr snd escaping without any loss. There were four G-l-iounders and two 12-pounders, the latter being the guns that have thrown all the shot that have reached u. The battery ws guarded by a small detachment of rebel soldier, who fcrel on the boats and fiel without any further lesistance. The pun were spiked with round files, aud were probably rendered useless, a the operation of removing the spiking is a very difficult one and can not be performed at all without the proper tools. Thd fact that this battery, against which the whole s rengtu of our fleet was directed, was so little injured os to be in readiness ior net ion, ar guesthat w e have done them a.s little da mage a they have done u?.

There will be a long row of coliuis pretty hoon. Kumjrs ol the .bove character have been afloat for some weeks. For the honor of Indi aua, as well as his own, we hope Mr. Süitii will be able to vindicate himself from these grave charges of official malfeasance. Since the foregoing was written, we find the following iu reference to the allegations against 31 r. Smith in the W abhington Star of last Thursday: The Newspaper Cmarofs aoainst hie Secretact oftiie Intikior. TheXew York World having reiterated it vaue charge against the Integrity of Secretary Smith's management of the aff urs of the Interior Depuitment, that gentleman ha promptly demanded of the conductors of that journal the n i me of his covert assailant, and specification of the latter's allegation He indignantly scouts the acctisition as being a monstrous fabrication, gotten up to compass some sinister purpose, and evidently intends pursuing the matter in order to m ike an example of those who may be behind his irresrxin'ObJe assailant, if, a is probible, some such per-on be named in answer to ois demand of the proprietors of the World newspaper. The Hebel Army of Uic Southwest. The Louisville Journal of Friday contains the following information in reference to the condition and situation of the rebel army near Corinth: The whole nation is now awaiting, in almost breathless expectation, the inevitable conflict soon to tike place at or near Corinth, in Mississippi. The thought of it i in all minds :ind hearts, and speculations in regard to it are upon all lip. Ordinary events and even the secondrate victories of our arnm seem to have little or no power to excite men's attention. For our own part, we anticipate a victory at Corinth, it victory great enough to crush all semblance of life out ot the renehiou, hut it would not be honest to deny that we have apprehensions as to the result. Most assuredly there are grounds for veiy grave apprehensions, and ours w ould be infinitely greater than they are but for our deep confidence in the skill of our Generals and the glorious spirit of the armies they lead, and our trust, almost a religious trust, in the justice of our country's cause and the justice of heaven. If our armies win this victory, they must win it against great and fearful odds. All the advantages are against them. Iteyond question tr eir enemies much outnumber them. Genera! Gustav us W. Smith is said to have pone there w ith sixty thousand men, the sinew of the rebel army of the Potomac, and the I ist intelligence is that Gen. Price, strongly reinforced, lias oeen ordered there with thirty fie or forty thousand men, the bulk of the rebel fighting material of Arkansas, Missouri, and Texas. The rebel hosts at Corinth, and in striking distance of it, are believed by the best informed to number now, or to be certain to number within two or three d as, a hundred and seventy five or twj hundred thousand men, the flow er and itrength ot the rebel Confederacy. Mot cover this prodigious host is under the command of General Ucaui egard. reputed on all hands to be the greatest of all the chieftains of the S.iuih, and he lias the immediate aid and supjxjrt of at Ica.-t nine other Generals, the most distinguished lit it lie, in looking abro.nl throughout the whole Confederacy, could summon around him. And besides he has h;:d an opportunity for
little
consequence that they made no reply at all. Firing was quite brisk yesterday. The mortars oj.ened witn fiequency, ami the rebels made the mo"t energetic reply that they have deigned to give during the siege. Their balls fell thick and fast around the gunboats, but nobody was hurt. It would be a great relief if somebody would condescend to become a sacrifice on the altar of their country. This going to war for weeks at a time, and burning powder night and day, without an v body being hit, is very dull business. Sickness is increasing greatly and is destined to become a serious matter with our army. The prevniling eomoiaint i.s diarrhea, brought on by salt diet, malaria and drinking river water. Everybody is coming down with it. The men suffer greatly and are fast filling the hospital.. The cdlicers are equally exposed, and of the corps of newspaper correspondents here collected, not one has escaped the contagion in more or less severe form. The weakening effect of the malady can not he, imagined. It is virulent in its attacks und make quick work of the victim. A few days continuance makes it chronic, and then typhoid fever sets in. and if life is saved it is only by month of suffering and weakness. It is ecstinel to prove the scourge of the Northern army. There are five, thousand men from Gen. Grant's army in the Cairo and Mound City hospitals from tli m a lady alone. Gen. Pope is in motion, and we are in hopes to heir something decisive from hiiuiu a short time. Active preparations are being made in the fleet.
which argues important matters in hand, and if
we can only receive the co-operation of the land forces, a battle will immediately occur. Wi.hout that, things must remain in statu quo.
Frou the X. Y. Sun (Republican). The Iort lloyul .egroe. The opportunity of testing the relative merits of free negro and slave labor now furnished on a large scale at Port lloyal and Pe lufnrt was too tempting to be neglected by the advocates of the former system, and. as our readers have been advised, a number of male and female missionaries from New York and Boston oroceeded at once to the scene ot operations, and are now en gaged in developing their favorite theories. Sufficient time, perhaps, has not yet elapsed to pronounce as to the success or failure of the project, but we have data to warrant the conclusion tint the expedition is already imperiled inconsequence of the excess of zeal over practical knowledge in the pirties engaged in the cause. It must be contested th:it the difficulties were weighty and numerous. The plantations were despoiled of produce and stock by the Commissary Department, in order to avert the greater evil of plundering by the negroes, and the imtne diate consequence ha been to render the contrabands dependent on the Quartermaster for their rations. This nas been a losing opcrtion to the Government, and the inherent difficult es resulting from it have been aggravited by the ignorance and incapacity of the persons having the in atter in charge. The allowance to field hands, when working, on the plantations South is one peck of corn (ungroundj and tin eo pounds of meat either pork, beef or bacon per week. The meat wa not given to those not working. The negroes were then fat and healthy, and suffered comparatively little from diseise. When Capt. Lilley took charge of the contra bands at Beaufort he allowed them tbe following articles and in the quantity specified : Fifty jHunds of beef or pork, the pound. of coilVe, twenty jxxinds ot rice, eight quarts of he ans. threequ irts of molasse, and Indian me il ad libitum to the one hundred rations.

T he missionary circle are tili disturbed by the old trouble." After long and able dicutot., the relative supeiiority of the ladie from Ponton and New York hi not been decided. There is a great deal of hard talk between the resj?cme chques, and some lit'Je feeliu hu been nnuifestcl by fx;th sides. A the contest progres-es the combi-auts grow warmer and warmer in expressing their opinions of the other, ani the dlsensiou promises to rend the bind in twain, break up the party and so disgu.t both sides that all will go home. Yon see the Boston people baring brought their double refined Boston tdeis with them, cannot possibly see how some of the New York ladies who hsv'e been respectable milliners and dressmaker in Canal street as they assert can be fitted for the grave and important duties of teaching the contraband to read aud write; and believing, a they do, that only in the modern Atheji cm one acquire thoe peculiar qualities of mind and habit necessary to the successful prosecution of & teacher's duties among tbe contrabands, they cannot credit the report that the New York ladies can be so iti5ane or presumptuous as to dare attempt anything in that line. Hence the row. One thing may be said in favor of the missionaries)
from Gotham. They come without receiving a cent of pay from any society, while the Boston ladie receive a stated salary, liberal and certain. And I am sure the ladies 'from New Yoik. although they ate a little on the sentimental order, are fully as well prepared for the wot k a those from the Oriei.t. Still, Boston rule the roost. The prospects for a cotton crop during the approaching teason are not good, in consequence of the delay in preparing ground, for want of stock and tools, r. Piene, the government agent, had sent to New York for tools, but it was doubtful if the exertions of those new at the business would raise more than enough cotton, the fir st year, to pay the expense of its cultivation. From the Chicago Tribane, 2L What Lincoln Said. After the President's emancipation message of March 6th had beeu sent to Congress, a large delegation of border State member waited on him at the White House to remonstrate. They set forth various objections, and insisted that he must recede from the position which he had asturned. Mr. Lincoln listened patiently to all thy had to say, and heu replied in substance a follows: Gentlemen, the difference between your views and mine consist in this: You loresluo try, and, therefore, desire to have it protected, strengthened and extended, a a good and desirable institution. Now hate slavery, because I believe it to be wrong. Therefore 1 think it should be restricted, discouraged, and the support of the government withdrawn from it; and what ever can be done, constitutionally, toward ter minuting it, ought to be applied". Hence, I recommended to Congress ti e adoption o a joint resolution that the United State ought to cooperate with any State which may tike steps for its abolishment. And a all part of the country are re.sronsible for the existence and tolerance of
slavery among us, I suggested on grounds of
equity that pecuniary aid on the part ot the Uni teal Sutes should be rendered to the emancipation States to compensate for the inconvenience pro duced by such a change of system. I hope, gen tleuien, that on mature reflection you will consent to lend me your influence to bring about a result that, in mv judgment, would redound greatly to the happiness and prosperity of the border State, and do much towards saving and perjetuating the Union.
