That Independence they gIue after a erea yeam war with a powerful GoTernment. The j reion that impelled the men of the Revolution to separate from Great Briuin, are Ml forth in the Declaration of Independence, which we re. produce le d j. They should be carefully read and considered. The principle and sentiments set forth in that immortal document U the basis of Uta Constitution as it is, and the Union as it was, and they must be respected if we hope to maintain constitutional liberty and perpetuate a free Government. The Situation Ilelore Illclimond. The Ute news from Gen. McCLELLaV army is more favorable. The evacuation of White Home anl t!ie selection of the new bae of Operation on the James river, it appears was premeditated and successfully accomplisheJ, with but little lo3 of Government proporty. Gen. Mc Clillax claims in his latest dr-patchc, which are corroborated by armr correspondence, that he w victorious over the enemy, and tint with expected reinforcements the reduction of the re bei cipiu! could not long be delated. Wt regret to see a disposition to decry the young comm inder upon the mere report of a disaster to his army. He L is the entire conS lence of General Scott, whom every American with pride regards as the great Captain of the age, and our be?t military men. The Administration, after every opportunity to test his merits, committed thi most Important military duty into his hands. And we hare no evidence yet that he Las failed, or that the movement he has made will not hasten the object in view. We have heard prominent Republicans question not only his ability for the task he has undertaken, but even his patriotism. If we can not place confidence in the lojalt of the men who risk health, life and reputation in behalf of their country, we certainly can not in the staj-at home patriots whose main business is to criticise and find fault with the acts of those who are laboring to pre serve the integrity of the Government. If Gen. McClellam has met with a serious reverse. which we do not believe, or if he has been compelled to change his ptans for want of necessary aid, wo betide the men who have been willing to see him icrificed. An indignant people will visit those thus guilty with the punbhment they richly merit. In the language of the correspondent of the New York Tribune, they "are doomed men." Correctly Argued All those who oppose confiscation are rebels they give aid and comfort to the enemy. We know this, for we read it in every radical Republican newspaper, and read it in every printed speech from that same political organization. Under the law passed st this scion. none of these people who" oppose confiscation can ever hold office. We know this, for we read that interpretation every day in these radical newspa pers. Hon. Jacob Collames, Republican Senator from Vermont, L a rebel, as is proved by his speech in the Senate. He said of the leaders: These men have established a de facto government over that people. If a man finds himself in a de facto government, which he cannot resist, and has no power to control, what are the limits and measures of his obligations? It requires a brave man to say that he will wnr upon it, be caus he thinks it is a usurpation. It would be a bold man who should say now, -'the United States made a rebellion against Enghiid, au all the present power you have, National and State, is itself a usurpation; I do not owe it any obedi euce, and I will not obey it." How idle it would be for an individual, a weak man, to talk in that way! Jut so is it with the people in these States. However loyal their feelings, a Government de facto is over them; they can not get away; they have nowhere to go; they have nothing to go with. What would you have a mn thereto do? What has this nation a right to demand of him? What right have we to demand of these people loyalty, allegiance and obedience to this Government, and to war on the Government de facto which is established over them, when we do not relieve them, furnish them with arms, disperse the armies that are there, or disarm the men who are their usurpers, but leave them in that condition? Mr. President, when I look at things in this light, it seems to rre it is a very questionable rjolicy, and tili more questionable ethics, for i:s io sit here day after day, befoie relieving tint eoj le, and while they are thus trodden on, making laws by which we declare that they have taken their States out of the Union and annihilated them, that whatever characters they hold under their laws are gone, to unhouse them, strip them and confiscate their property, taking advantage of their absence when they are not represented here, and have no power to do otherwise. It may uit the notions of equity and rieht of some, but to my mind it looks more like taking counsel fiora our resentments than from our judgments. A llrbnke to Abolition!! In Con Itrras. Hon. Hoback Mayvikd, of Tennessee, one of the Union members from that State in theHuuse of. Representative, thus replied to an Abolition speech in that body, delivered by the Hun. Mr. Sedgwick, of Xe York. He said: I shall be erv much gratified if the speech just made by tint gentleman does not find its way across our lines, is not published in every secession newspaper, used to ttir up and excite the rebels on the one hind and to discourse the loa'. on the other, and pointed out as a simple of hat the party in pu.vession of the Government propose to do. I beg of you, cenlleineii, to pause betöre yon strike a blow which will injure tout friends far more than it will injure your enemies, even if it does not the latter a er ice. You remember ith hat staring incredulity vou regarded all the warnings of dinger i;iven you by Southern Union men; how you looked upon secession, rebellion, war. national jeril, as idle tales, the iin of distempered lancy, or the eroakiiigs of displaced ililtci u.s; w hat ineitin guishable laughter jou indulged in at the expense of Union saving and Union-saver. And u it Dot juot possible, that we may, more correctly than you, apprehend the cause of this whelming movement of which r have so long been tuüiou.

177G! DECLARATION onXDEPEXDLNTE. When, in the cour of huenn events, it becomes nece-sary lr one people to 4-ole the ,itical band which hate couiiected theoi ith ano:hcr, and to assurut ntig the wers of ti e erlh the separat ai.d ?Ul Utioii to which the law of nature d of it tture'a God entitle them.

a decent repct to the opiuions ot mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self eviJent: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator vith certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happine. That to necure thee rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the contest of the governed; and that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or abolish il, and to institute new goternment, laying its foundation on och principles, and organizing its power in such form as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments, long established, abould not be changed for light and transient causes; and, accordingly, all experience hath shown, that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right them selves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. Rut when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object, evince a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw ofT such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of the colonies, and such is uow the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The hUtory of the preseut king of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having, in direct clject, the establishment of an absolute tyranuy over the-e States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world: He has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary tor the public good. He has forbidden his Governor to pa. laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operations till his ns-ent nhould be obtained; and, when so suspended, he has utterly neglected to attend to them. lie has refused to pass other laws for the ac comraodation of large districts of people, unless those people would relinquish the right of repre sentation iu the Legislature a right inestimable to thetn, aud lormidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at pUces unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the rejxjsitory of their public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance w ith his measures. He has dissolved Representative Houses repeatedly for opposing with manly firmness his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused, for a long time, after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have icturned to the people at large for their exercise; the Slate rein uning, in the meantime, exposed to all the dangers of invasion irom without, and convulsions within. He has endeavored to prevent the population of these States; lor that purpose, obstructing the laws of naturalization of foreigners, refusing to pass others to encourage their migration thither, and raising the conditions of new appropriations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refusing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made Judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their otfices, and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude ot new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance. He has kept among us, in time of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our Legislatures. He has affected to render the military independent of, and superior to, the civil power. He has combined, with others, to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our Constitution, and unacknowledged by our Itws; giving Ins assent to their acts of pretended leslation: For quartering larce bodies of armed troops among us: For protecting them, by a mock trial, from punishment of any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these States: For cutting off our trade with all parts of the woild: For imposing taxes on us without our con sent: For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefit of trial by jury. For transporting us beyond seas, to be tried for pretended offences: For abolishing the free system of English laws in a neighboring province, establishing therein an arbitrary government, and enlarging, its bounda rics so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these colonies: For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable laws and altering, fundamentally. the forms of our Government: For suspending our own legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever. He has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection, and waging war against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is, at this time, transporting large armies of foreign mercenaries to complete the works of death, desolation and tyranny already begun, with circumstances of cruely and perfidy scarcely paralleled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head ot a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow citizens, taken captive on the high seas, to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by their hands. He has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and his endeavored to bring on the inhabit uits of our frontiers the merciless Indian savages whc known rule of warfare is an indistinguished destruction of all ages, sexes and con dilions. In every stage of these oppressions, we have pet toned for redress in the most humble terms. Our lepealed petitions have been answered only by repeated injuries. A prince whose character is thus marked by every act which miy define a tyrant, is unfit to be the ruler of a fite people. Nor have we been wanting in attention t our British brethren. We have warned them, from time to time, of the attempts by their legislature to extend an unwarranted jurisdiction oter us. We have remrtded them of the circumstances of our emigration and settlement here. We have appealed to their native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them, by the ties of our common kindred, to disavow these usurp itions, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They, too, have been deaf to the voice of justice and consanguinity. We niu-t, theiefore, acquiesce in the necessity which denounces our separation; and hold them, as we hold the rest of mankind enemies iu war, in peace friends. We, therefore, the Representatives of the Uni'el States of America, in General Congress assembled, ape iling to the Supreme Judge of the world lor the rectitude of our -mentions, d. in the name s.nd by the authority of the goad reop!e of the-e colonies solemnly publish and declare that thee United Colonies are, and of right ought to Ue. free and independent States; that they are absolved from all allegiance to theBritih crown, and that all political connection between them and the State of Great Britain is, and ought to be, totally dissolved; aud that, as free and inde pendent Slates, they have full power to levy war, conclude pece, contract alliance, et.iblish commerce, and do all other acts and thing which independent States mivof riht do. An 1, for the support of this declaration, with firm reliance on the protection of I). vine Providence, we mutually pledge to each other our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

J Gentlemen: Fully concurring in the wisdom of the views expres-ed to me in fo patriotic a manner by you m the communication of the 2th day of June, I have determined to call into the service an additional force of three hundred thousand men. I suggest and recommend that the troops should be chiefly of infantry. The quota of your State would he I trust that they may be enrolled without dilay, so as to bring this unnecessary and injurious civil war to a speedy and ftttist-ictory conclusion. An order fixing the quota of the respective States will be issued by the War Department tomorrow. Abraham Lincoln. An I nclinnged Tlieme. The war is on all sides admitted to be an evil, of all evils the most horrifying which these Ke publics ever witnessed; and it may be safely asserted that if any one great man could be found able and willing to arrest the evil, he would stand in the hearts and history of the country on a platform equal in altitude to that of Washington. It is true that all human annals from the days of the first Brutus to the present, preach the plain path to peace and warn by innumerable examples against the greatest obstacle to that divine blessing. A war waged for the acquisition of some de bateable land, commercial advantage, or balance of Hi wer is easily ended, because it is a mere coutest of armies, born of ill logic or political strategies. The heart of the belligerent pulsates not in accordance with its every movement. Domestic peace, internal trade, family ties, are uninterfcred with; and, the army whipped, peace is e sily made! A war waged in support and in resistance of revolution is seldom short, r or eight centuries the Sierras of Spain saw the continued fight between the invader and invaded. Each gene ration bequeathed its national vendetta to its successor, the child played in his cradle with the arms of his guerrilla father and was nightly taught by his mother to pray to God and Sant Iago for early strength to wield them iu the nationally hereditary cause. Europe, Asia and Africa, aye, and America, afford numerous examples of wars of retaliation; and their peculiarities of bitterness, continuity and desolation are easily traceable to the harrowing aud unnecessary diverting of the contest from the armies in the field to the civilivns of the country. The moment the war reaches the civilian, harrowing his sense of right and wrong, exposing his liberty and propeity lor the mere expression of opinion, that moment is infused into hitn an intensity of hostility which spreads from the man himself to all w ho bear his name, or cl im consanguinity with him. Then it is that Maids of Siragossa stind by the cannons of resistance, then it is that wives string their husband's bows, and children spit in scorn upon their father's foes. Then springs up the true spirit of sacrifice to hatred. Armies become secondary in such a contest, the people in chief take it up; signalize their desperate adoption by a Sicilian Vespers or a St. Bartholomew, and continue it to extermination or success, generally to the latter. Oppression is the mother of resistance-. The king of Britain put his foot down and liberated the colonies he would oppress. The king of Britain conciliated Canada, and now Britain could not kick Canada from her allegiance to the House cf Guelph. Confine a war to the armies in the field, its duration must be limited. During its continuance, let the civilians of either belligeraut be oppressed in conscience, liberty or goods, and the war of armies turns into a war of peoples, gradually in tensified in spirit till it becomes savage and quarlerless, und the motto of the Catalan is revived and adopted, "War to the knife!" With the lessons of the past before them we feel satisfied that the Federal Government, as its armies advance and occupy, will refrain from the adoption of any policy which would tend to drive the civilian to the field, that it will remember that if the reconsiruction of the Union is indeed their object, that object can only be accomplished by the resuirectiou of the fraternal feeling tha. created it. The Union was not built by bayonets neither can its ruins be once more wrought into the old plan by the sword. Here in Memphis we saw the effects of a policy of conciliation, which resumed and persisted iu, would do mote to 'firing back Tennessee" than co aid any amount of systematic severity. The surrounding country may be wooed back to its old relations with the city, but cau not be driven to their resumption. Severity m ty secure p-is site obedience wi hin the limits ot a military post, but it also frightens Irom it all who can escape it, and iu lieu of inviting to peace provokes, to war men who from their past life and avocations have ever sought the former and deprecated the latter. We deprecate all harsh me inures from the soldier ti the civilian, as tending inevitably to prolong this unnatural war to a period indefinitely remote in the future, and certain to defeat the purposes for which it has been waged. Push th:s war upon the civilian by the nvhtary power of the country, and we h i!l have estahUshel a system of guerrilla and bandit warfare which will j last till the infant now in his cradle perishes by I I .?

Limit the war to the armies of the two belligerent powers, and wheu one or the other shall be vanquished and honoraMe peace m y follow, and the North and South alike escape the annihilation of property, life and liberty. It is impossible to reconstruct the old Union by force. It existed only in the hearts and affections of the people. A Govern ment of force will not be the old and cherished institutions of the "stars and ftripes," which Washington. Jefferson and Madison inaugurated, ai d which were so gallantly defended by Jackson "the Union" which he said "raut and shall l preserved." The swop! brandished by the soldiery of the country can never restore the people of the South to these old relations. The means must be wholly and tot illy different in character, otherwise follows a signal and certain failure. ifTbe Democracy ot Greene county meet in mass convention at Bloomfield, on Saturday, July 19, to nominate a county ticket and appoint delegites to attm 1 the CongresMonal aud Seutloiul Convention.

neciellan Puhlirlf Acr ud efTreaen Yesterday, during the excitement follow ing ihe firt reports" of the ri.-ht betöre Kichmond. ti e puticuhr enemies of Gen. McClelhu betrayed their bitterness yery decidedly. Exrited groups collected at every comer. In front of this olh e, a very large crowd collected, anxiou to msccttain "the new. An excited controversy soon sprung up. In an animated con terpat ion between Messrs. Milton S. Patrick and B. F. Haddutk. the former expressed hirnvlf very freely and unreservedly against McClellan. Mr. liadduck rejoined warmly. Mr. Patrick, as a clincher, then declared that within a very short period, "Secretary Stanton had told Mr. John II. Dunham that McClellan was the greatest traitor In the North, and that all the material information obtained by the rebels of Federal movomcntj, was furnished them by McClellan 's family." Mr. Patrick is a well known citizen of Chicago, a mtn of strong political prejudices it may be, but still so far above suspicion that we dare not question his word without further evidence. He asserted the fact without any equivocation or reservation that Secretary Stanton had told Mr. Dunham that McClellan was a traitor. Mr. Patrick is of course only responsible for the story as it comes from or through Mr. Dunham. Mr. Dunham is a responsible and highly respectable merchant of this city, lately Pres. dent of a bank, and we do not believe that he would state that Stanton had accused McClellan of treason unless he was sure of the fact. Now, if Mr. Dunham did not hear Mr. Suntou say that McClellan was

a traitor let him say so. The charge has been made publicly on the streets, and Mr. Dunham has been named as the party to whom the Secretary unbosomed himself. If the story is false, justice to the Secretary of War as well as to McClellan requires that it should be piomptly branded as falsehood. If true, and the Secretary of War did sav thtt McClellan was a traitor, then the Secretary of War is himself a criminal by allowing a traitor to have the command of the army. Let the facts come out. A Y.lltruld. General Untier und tlie .rgro. It appears that General Butler has written to Washington for specific instructions about runaway negroes coming to his camp. All the instructions that are needed may be dictated by ordinary common sense, aud it is totally unnec essary to ask the President cr Secretary of War any questions on the subject. The simple course to be pursued is to do nothing, and just to act as if the fugitives were so man idle white vagabonds. If any worthless, lazy negroes think proper to run away from their master, who is bound to support them, is thir support to fall upon the Government? If they want to be free, let thern go and work for a living. The army h is nothing to do with thern and ou:ht not to have. Suppose a countless multitude of South em white men, women and children should come to the lines of our army, is it the business of the army to take charge of them, feed, clothe and defend thern, and provide them with transportation from place to place. The thing is absurd on the face of it. If the army could not embarrass itself with white vagrants, how much less can it afford to become encumbered with the same class of blacks a more helpless race. Frequently it is sis much as the army enn do to feed and take care of itself. The course of General Phelps in inviting runaway negroes to his camp is therefore clearly wronjj, and deserves tobe moie severely reprimanded than the proclamation of General Hunter. The business ot the army is to fight and defeat the rebels in the field, and let the negro alone. When the insurgent armies are whipped, then the question of the disposal of the negro may be in order; now it it is clearly out of order, and is only calculated to embarrass the Government and the operations of the army, while it cannot be attended with the slightest practical good effect. jV. Y. Herald The Campaign in the Soulhuptt. Our latest anrj most reliable information from the Southwest leads us to the conclusion that the campaign in that quarter, henceforward till "tue first frost," will be limited to the maintenance of the line of the Mississippi river, the northern frontiers of Mississippi, Alabama and Georgia, and the prosecution of the work of law and order in New Orleans, Memphis, Nashville, kc. General Curtis, in Arkansas, is failing back towards Missouri, having done all he can do in Arkansas with his present limited force. Iu the mean time, however, while the arduous labors of an active campaign are generally suspended in the West and Southwest, we dare say that Gen. II illeck will be in a condition to reinforce our grand army of the -East with fifty thousand of his veteran Western soldiers, if they should be demanded, to finish up our summer w ork in Virginea and North Carolina. Tu movements over the whole chessboard will depend, perhaps, upon our next news from Richmond. A'eic York Herald. Distance or the Ahmt from Richmoxp Newspapers aud correspondents are so anxious to make out advance movements that they have got McClellan's headquarters within four miles of Richmond, when the truth is his headquarters arc between eight and nine miles from the city. Fair Oaks is, by direct railroad and telegraph line, six miles from Richmond, and our pickets are not over half a mile beyond the six mile post. The next near point we occupy is near New Bridge, at Dr. Garnet's, seven miles by New Bridge road from Richmond. At the Mechanicsville bridge, on our extreme right, our troops occupy the nearest point to Richmond, which is only four and one fourth miles from the city. If our pickets move ten or twenty yards a day it is advancing as far as can be expected. yew York Pott's Correspondent. Wno are Officers and who are xot? Our streets continue to be filled with gentlemen wearing the uniforms and shoul er straps of army officers? Why are not these parties with the army? Since the War Department has issued a peremptory order for all ofiicet 8 on furlough to join their regimeuts, it is only fair to presume that none of these persons in uniform, w ho are in robust health, ami therefore not on the sick list, me teallv attached to the armv, but are either dismissed or discharged from the service, if they were ever in it at all. A. Y. Iltrald. tThe obstructions in the James river are of such a character as to render any co opera -tiou of the gunboats in An attack directly upon Richmond out of the question. It is ascertained that there has been sunk above Fort Darling thirty vessels, in three lines or rows, some of them of the largest size, though others are not larger than canal boats. The spice between these three lines of obstruction is filled with rocks and other m tterial. It is not to be supposed, however, that the fleet is kept at City Point without a purpose. It may yet play a part in the movements to be made across the James river. A correspondent of the New York Expros says the James River is obstructed by thirty vessels, mnk in three lines or rows, and the space between tilled in with rocks and other m iteri.il.
