An "Ordeal f Patriotlint" ; The New York Tribune admits that it arowel ii w'JüngoeM to let tba cot too States (when no ethers had seceeed) go io pex rather than hart Ci country plunged into thii terrible war." We r'?o!iect that it taeed its argument upon the Declaration of Independence, which it interpre tl to mean tfeat a people "T5is9ati?eJ with an e listing Government, or when they regnnl it as epprrwive, had the right to separate from it and st up one of their own. To den them this right it declared would be to violate the principles upon which the Rerolution was fought and our Government was based. The Trihune. in an article Ian Saturday, attempting to reconcile its present position, with the expression we have quoted, re"From the beginning we hire aked nothing b'it th4t the rebel ahouM be compelled to lay down their arras and return to loyalty and the fulfillment of their constitutional obligation. We propose to think our own thoujihta and expre them after the rebellion U suppreel as we did before it broke out. If the rebellion can only be put lown by com nellin the lojal to profess what they do not believe, and promise what they can not conscieotio'isiy perform in order to conciliate traitors.then wt should prefer it should goon; but we claim no rights that we do not freely concede to all men, and whenever the rebels fbill be ready to make pnce on thli baa's, we are ready." ' These decht rations, or the views expressed by the Tribune ia the foregoing extract, cannot be reconciled with its first concession th it the people of the rebel Sute had the right of revolution, the umleriug of their connection with the Oeneral Government, when in their opinion il subverted their right!, or their bet iuteiots demanded, it' If the latter assumption Is correct.

arvi so far as the Tribune is concerned it admits that it i, its present advocacy of force to compel the State that hare ca?t ofT their allegiance to "return to loyalty and the fulfilment of their constitutional obligations." in the light that that paper presents it, Is but an act of despotism an attempt to force an unwilling obedience to hn allegiance which they have pronounced to be oppressive, unjust, and destructive of tho.e interests which it is the object of government to protect and promote. The Tribune affirmed that the rebels had the right to dissolve their connection with the Union, and et up a Government of their own. In the article we have quoted, it says: "We claim no rights that we dc not freely concede to all men." What are thof "rights?" According to the Tribune, they are these: "Whenever any form of government becimes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying Its foundation on su:b principles, and organizing its powers in such a form as to them shall seem moat likely to effect their safety and happiness." TLIs is the right which the Tribun concedes to the, as Mr. SkWard termed them, "revolutionary States." According to the Tribune' logic tloe States have the right to do what they did, in the words of the Declaration of Independence, "institute a new Government, lay uig jts foundations on, such piinciple, and organizing its powers in euch form, as to them shall seem roost likely to effect their safety and happiness." Ajd as we read its declarations, the Tribun is ready, "whenever the rebels shall be ready, to make peace on this basis." If such are its honet convictions, we can not fathom its "ordeal of patriotism" which demands that the country ball be "plunged into this terrible war" to compel a people 16 return to "loyalty" and the "fulfillment of constitutional obligations" which they have repudiated, as the Tribune said they had the right to do. We have referred to the position and logic of the Tribune, and that school of politician, to show that they lead right njuare into secession and that, too, upon the principle conceded by them that the people have the right to alter or aboliih a Government whenever it becomes, in their opiuion, ojpre.-jve, and institute new one, on such principles and in such a form, as to them shall wtci most likely to effect their Fufety nud happiness. If there are any secessionists upon principle, it cannot be denied that the Tribune and tho.e who follow it. miy safely be $et down auion thein without doing tbeui any injustice.

' A IUchmond dispatch publishe-1 in the Norfolk pipers of April ICtb.says that "official information from New Orleans mates that au atUck on Forts Jsckson and St. Philip commence-l yesterday, the lith." We have nothing then for a week. The Kichmond Uxaminer of the 221 says official dispatches received in Richmond ou the 21st, state that "the bombardment of the forts before 5ew Orleans continuel during the whole of Saturday, (the 19th) and that there were no casualties on the rebel side. It is aUted that the Federal srmament, owing to '.lie shallowness of the water, cannot get sufficiently neir'the forts to batter their walls to any extent, and there is no possibility of reducing them except by shelling out the garrison." Next we have the following telegram in the Norfolk papers of the 2 lib, dited Ne Orleans, April 23d, which sutes: "There has been a heavy and continued bombardment at Fort Jackson all night. It is still progressing. The relels in the fort represent

themselves still cheerful, with an abiding faith of

ultimate success. I hey state that they are making repiirs as best they can. Their barbette

guns are stj'.l in working order, though most of

them have been driblet at times. I bey assert that we have fired I,01K) 15 inch shells, of which 1,000 fell in the fort. Thev think our ammunition must soon become exhausted, but assert that they can Und it as long as we can." The next news we have is from a Richmond piper of the 25th, stating that a Federal gunbo it h id run past the forU an 1 was between tprn an 1 the city. This wa probably on the 23d or 21th. Following close upon the heels of this we hive a dispKtch from Mobile, dated April '23. statins that the Federal Heet passed Fort Jackson at 4 o'clock on the preceding afternoon. This news cretel intense exciiement in New Orleans. Ruaines was suspended. The frte.unlHuts, except thoe necessary to tratisfiort ammunition and troops, ami nil the cotton in the city, were burned. At 1 o'clock on Monday the telegraph ope rator at New Orleans bid his fellow operator at Mobile gocnl-bye, saying the Feleral fleet was before the citv. The Richmond Examiner of the 2(Ith also announces that New Orleans has been taken. PlhTA C'KS FROM NEW ( BLK.VN.S. MILES. To Forts St. Fhilip and Jackson 70 To Southeast 1'ass (iialie) 103.

Although there are probably a dozen other ap

proaches to New Orleans than by the direct course

of the Mississippi river, yet we have no mention

of any advance on the city but that up the river

past r ort Jscksoo. Tbe most prouvnentof tbe-e approaches is bv Lakes Rorgne and Tonchartrain,

but this was more strongly defended than the river. One of the other water avenues to the

city is bv a canal connecting Rack Rafv (enone

ouslv printed "Hhick" Riy in the maps) with the

Mississippi river, just iebw the"Lnglisi 1 urn. On this canal, five miles from the mouth, is situated Fort Dupree. This is oneW tbe old forts

built in the last war, and can be approached only bv vessels drawing less thin five teet. This i.sat least fifty miles love, and in the renrof thefort-s on the Mississippi. It is possible our light draught Junboats may have ot into the river ubove Fort ackson by this canal. THE 11 11 B K L rORTIFICATIOXS. To the New Orleans correspondent of the Richmond Ditpatch we owe the following statement of ti e fortifications guarding tne approaches to New Orleans bv the Mississippi: ' "The Mississipoi is fortified so na tobe impassable lor any hostile fleet or flotilla. Forts Jackson and St. Phillip are armed with 170 heavy gunn (eipbt pounders, rifled bv Itarkley Itritten. and received from England.) Tin navigation of the river is Mopped by a dam of alxuit a quarter of a mile from the bore forts. No flotilla on cirth would force that dim in less than two hours, during which it would be within bort n l cross range ol 170 puns of tbe largest calibre, many of which would be seryed with red hot idiot, numerous furnaces fof which have been erected ineery fort and every battery. In a day or two we shall have rea iy two iron ca.ed floating batteries. The plates are four and a half iuches thick, of the bet himmereJ iron, received from England and France. Each iron-cased battery will mount twenty ' pounder, placed so to skim the waiter, aud strike the enemy's hull between wind and water. We have mi abundant supply of incendiary shells, cupola furnaces for niolton iron, congreve rockets and fire ships. "Between New Orleans and the forts there is a constant micccsmoii of earthworks. At the plain of Chalmette, near damn's property, there re redoubt nrtned with riÜed cannon, which have teen found t be etlective at live miles' range. A ditch thirty feet m width, and twenty feet deep, extends from the Mississippi to j Cypriere. "In Forts St. Phillip and .Tackson there are 3,000 men , ol whom a goodly portion sre experienced artillerymen and gunners who have served in the navy. "At New Orleans itself we have 32,000 infantry and as many more quartered in the immediate neighborhood. In discipline and drill they are far sujerior to the Yankees. We have two very able ami active Generals, who poscses our entire conti lence (leneral Mansfield Lovell and Brigadier (iencral Bugles. For Commodore we have old Holhns a Neiscm in his way.

Cntllatinal Uw, In the desire to accomplish one thing men too oftea sacrifice other of eijuilor greater importance. The pre-ent wjnt. or the yre-ent wish, assume mignitu le far ajve that of objects not present to the view, and tl.e danger thus arises tlt.it tbe pa-jion cl a moment rosy ruin the aims of a lifetime. If we should crush the rebellion by sacrificing the freedom of our institutions, ever one would look back with regret on the terrible failure ot the whole thing. If tbe grand principles of our Government should be changed, and we should emerge from the jceseut struggle a nation of AbohuonUu, or a miliary power with a military head, or a mad Democracy unreitrainei by a Constitution; if we should find ourselves some morning rid of the rebels, but also rid of the great American system, with one grand central power, and Constitutions, and all tbe checks of our laws and institutions done away with, there would be reason for saying that a fatal error had been made in the means to suppress the insurrection. Yet it cjinnot be denied that there are men in all parts of the country, and men in Washington, in places of power and trust, who in their anxiety to do the great work of the day, to put down the rebellion, lose sight of the real object to be accomplished, xiamely, the salvation of the Union and Constitution. Hence it is that w hin the objection is raised that any proposed measure is unconstitutional, there is a disposition to treat the suggestion as factious, and some ardent men go so far as to charge sympathy with the rebellion on everv man who objects to unconstitutional law. The danger is that the disregard of constitutional provisions and prohibitions may become so common as to create disrespect for the fundamental law of the land, and the tendency of all this is toward a central power at Washinghton, unchecked by the sovereignty of the States which compose the Union. Already men demand such a Uovernnment, and discuss the propriety of establishing it. If such demands and ideas are not checked at the outlet, we may drift rapidly into the

worst form ol popular monocracy, which is tyranny. Governors ot States do not sulbViently reflect on this subject. U would probably be esteemed a startling doctrine to teach that the Gove: nor of New York may by proclamation suspend the privilege of the writ of habeai corpu$, and yet the Governor i . in all respects an competent to do it as the President of the United States, and exercises within his State as high powers and is charged with as great responsibilities as the President in his broader jurisdiction. But a general impression h is been allowed to g:iin ground that in ho me manner tbe Governors were but subordinate olhcers to the President, and that in all things the State is tl.e inferior of the United States, and tbe subject of its Horereignty. Tbe Constitution of the United States is the supreme law of the land, but it is only supreme in those matters of which it t ikes cognizance, and wherever it does not deprive a State of power, there the Slate nut only has the power, but alone has it, to the cxclu-io"ii of the United States. It is not our purpose to discuss this subject, so familiar to all thinking Americans, but it is our object to direct attention to the fact that the more radical propositions of the day, on the part esj-ecially of the anti-slavery men, all look to tbe erection of a great power at Washington, superior iu everything to the several States of New England, or the West or the South. If the plan proposed and still advocated by them, should be ndopted, of treating States as suicides, and claiming the right at once to govern them as Territories, we should at Oiice sacriiice the American system and plunge into the great errors against which we fought and won the victories ol our revolution. The new principle is founded on the idei that the United States is the heir to a dead Statc, un idea w hich does not exist in law, and can not be main tainel under our Constitution. But it also rests on the theory that whoa a mnjoiiiv of the citi

zens of a State are rebels, the State is a rebel, and th.3 minority is at once dead with the majority. Tbe result of the doctrine is that when Massachusetts by statute and by practice, annuls a fugitive slave law, and thus rebels against the constitutional authority of the United States, it is competent for the latter to declare the State frlo de se, and enter on her powers und properties. But the plan goes further still, since it proposes that the United Spates shall succeed to the sovereignty of a State. Prisoners in the State prisons of a State thus declared dead, become prisoners of the United States, aud re to be tieated by the President as if he had pardoning powers in their sevcial cases. Debts due by tbe State arc to he assumed bv the United States, and made chargeable ou the lands of the people w ho may happen to inhabit them. In fact all that is ordinarily implied in the succession of a Government to the rights and liabilities, of another, is the necessary accompaniment of this new and ntr.ir.ge proposition which lesults nt once in giving to the United States those identical powers w hich in the Constitution are expressly prohibited. "It is in effect declaring"that although the United States may not exercise certain towers iu the States under the Constitution, vet she may excicise them outside of the Constitution and outside of the S'ates. In this way we should have a limited Governmentin its relation to the States, but an absolute Government in its relations to the territories, once Slates, but now conquered provinces. This would soon end the American Union and Constitution. We need not pursue farther the illustration. It is not alone in this proposal, which indeed has not met with great favor, but in others, that gentlemen who ought to be statesmen, are oblivious of the constitutional limitations of the power of the Government. It is show n iu the willingness'to pa.-'s bills of doubtful onstitutio ality, a pretty severe stretching, and that it will herefter serve a great many purposes which it was never before thought capable ol. There have been bills before Congress, whose unconstitutional features were plain to all men, but which were uiged by members, who probably forgot that there is a Supre me Court, and that alter w ar comes peice, and that this is not the last yearxtf tbe world, nor the last year of the cool, calm, judicious administration of law. We expect the country to survive the resent war, the present century, and all that is now done iu the wav of unking laws will be reviewed by the people, arid by the lawyers, and by ilie good and great judges who will be on the

bencaes of our courts, and who will administer

In all things fhort of sn actml test of he.' taipability in a nival action, she his fully rcilied the expectation of her Tojeciors. Like the Monitor, the construction of the Galena was an experi raeut. The design of its builders wsto produce a craft whirh nbould combine fpeeil and the least possible draft of water, with invulnerability. In the two former particulars these requisites have been obM'uied; the latter qualification yet remains to be demonftated. The original plan of the builders has been somewhat chauged in auch re?f ec as it was deemed would best accomplish tbe end arrived at. To the coat of mnil with w hich l'e vesel is clad, there has been added three and one quarter more

incite of iron, until now it is believed to be ca-1 pable of resisting the force ot anv ordinary shot. The gunners are well protected, the armament is of the heaviest calibre, and the speed of the ves pel haa been found to be at least twelve miles prr hour. In all things essential for successful attack and defence, the Galena has had the advantage of the careful calculation and forethought of able and scientific men. She was constructed at Mystic, Connecticut, and received her outfit in New York. The model of her hull is smooth and regular, and four hundred tons of armor have been placed upon her for protection. The Galena is now under the temporary comrn.in! of Captain Taylor, but will be resigned to Commander Itodgers, who has been j-ei manently assigned to the position. There are now three gunboats at Fortress Monroe the Galena, Monitor and Naugatuck. With these the demolition of the Merriraac, should she make her appearance, is deemed inevitable. .Tlr. Secretarr Stanton. It is appnreut enough that popular confidence has greatly diminished in Mr. Secretary of War Snnton during the past few weeks. It is believed that he has interfered with the plans ol General McClellau to their detriment, and he is suspected ot participation in the conspiracy against that General. When, awhile ago, Wendell Phillips praised him in n public ppeech, people very naturally wondered what he had done, or what he was altout to do, which commended him to that agitator and revolutionist. The recent developments show something of what he has done. When Mr. Stanton went into the Cabinet, his great strength consisted in that he was deemed

a representative of the Democratic sentiment of the country. He was without reputation excegt as a simple attorney at law. How inevitably did he fall the moment heceisedto be the rcpre sentative of the Democratic sentiment. How low w ill he fall if it be true that he has joined the Abolition conspiracy against Gen. McClellan. He ceased to be esteemed a representative of Democratic fentiment when he undertook to exercise a more despotic censorship over the public press than has ever been exercised by imperial France a censorship as useless as it is despotic and unconstitutional. We had a specimen of censorship here in Chicago when this Secretary, at the dead of night, without premonitory warning, directed by telegraph our Superintendent of Police to teize tbe newspaper ollices at once, examine their forthcoming issues, and if he foi.nd iu any one of them intelligence which he (the Saperinteudent) deemed contraband, to suppress the entire edition. For this spasmodic and extraordinary action not the slighte.-t reaon appeared at the time or subsequently. The same action was taken in all the large cities. It was time Mr. Stanton had ceased to be esteemed a representative of Democratic sentiment Seward or Cameron might as well be esteemed such a representative. It is understood that the President his overruled the Secretary as to his interference with the plans of Gen. McClellan. If this be so, a great mischief has been avoided which might, and probably would, have cost a defeat to the Union army in front of Yorktow n a consummation, however, which Abolitionism, ami, it would appear, Mr. Secretary Stanton, ardently desire. Mr. Secretary Stanton's is not the first weak head which has been turned by interested and designing flattery and a ridiculous ambition. Chicago Timet.

There is a world of meaning and not a little warning in thi.' Mttle paragraph. "Congrt in ours," is the pleasing anticipation of the New York Etprets, if the tra'tors can only be "rrconstructed" into their old position in Congress. National Republican. We take this from the Abolition organ at Washington, Hnd there is a world of meaning in it, and not a little warning Tiiese Abolition traitors don't intend that the Union shall be reconstructed. They take warning at the ominous sentence "Congress is ours." They see in a restoration the end of their saturnalia, and they don't, intend a restoration tdiall ever be. They take warning. The Abolitionists will be avowed disunionists before long. Indeed, nothing could he plainer than this paragraph. Louittille Dnn-ocrut.
