I a m urpn-cl t iat mv S. ti.tot mM oppo-i the propo-itioii of the Senator from Masaacbuelts, for we all know that eventually it will be adopted. The objection as to its materiality or proper connection with this measure is but au ob i action of time. No gentleman can question tbat tbe Senator from Massachusetts will eventually csrry bis proposition. Why, sir, about two week ago this body, after full discussion, debb erately voted that the t onatitu' iou iniposed a duty upon Cougtees and tbe President ol the Cnited Stales The present incumbent of the I're-idential chair, in his inaugural adircss. said that that duty rested as an oath upon the conscience of every Senator to see than there was an evTMrnt and adequate law for the return of l i' ive slaves, and yet under some process, not the force ol argument, but through some ii.fu tt.ee thai tbe uninitiated cannot understand, alter the Senate had rejected the proposition in its original frm, it wa - carried though yesterday by a large vole. Why then coute-t the mitter longer? Let the Senator bring in In- propositions. The Seuator Irom Ohio Mr. Sherman made an effort to the progres- at one point upon the Constitution, and did for a while save the act of 1793 and the signature of George Washington; but the Sena lor f;om I Hiio finally failed yesterday, aud it all went by tbe board. He may for tbia hour, and in this debate, upon a technical point, prevent the adoption of the measure of tbe Senator from Massachusetts upon the bill; but that it will come in this bod v I bare no doubt. It may a- eil eome now as at any time Let it be understood that all the positions assumed by our fathers ' i. hing the relations of these States are to be wiped out at once, and then I suppose the Senators that accomplish ?o much will undertake the work of reconstruction or the lor mit ion of a new Ls s mon. Sir, I regtet to -ce this Kvery law put upon the statutebook by our t ither with a view of carrying out the prov isioua of the Constitution, or in pursuance of the spirit of the union between the States, I regtet to .-ee'wiped out; but we have witnessed it. and I think the effort to de', it i- .-eie- We may just u. well let il come now as at any time II m-sfortuoe comes of it I am not responsible, and there are other Sena tors who are not responsible I believe this L'niou is to be restored upon the Constitution, if it is evei re-tored. and I do not believe there is wisdom or virtue or patrioti-ru enough now to make a new Union, and If we do not come back again upon the old Union substantially and upon the basis of the Constitution, 1 do not hope for a new Union. Mr President, I am not sitisfied that the true friends of the Union are the men who are break iug all the bondü that our lathers runde to hold the States together. One ligament after another gives way in ihe presence ot the sentiment of the hour; und yet Senators who will adopt these measures call themselves specially Union men, and upon some occa-iona doubt the fidelity to the Uiiiou of Senators who op;iose this policy I claim to be, a Union man. because I stand upon the bond of the Union, the covenant that brought these States together; and if 1 go out sioe ot that covenant I cannot well claim to be a Union man. I do not unpose this law that the Seuator proposes to repeal is important in any respect, but it simply shows the purpose that is to be succe-slu! in this body whether in the Huse of Repreen tatives or no I cannot'-ay of breaking down ill the institutions that our fathers established, based upon the relations that exist between the Statemid w'tlnn the States If in the end. some years from thi.-' time, we find a broken Union, some States gone South, some States gone off' by the Pacific, some Slates gone to the West, some perhaps in tbe Hast, il will not be charge upou the men who stood day after day und year after year upon tbe Constitution; but true liLstory will write it down ttiat the responsibility is with that class of poiiticiaus who from day to day weaken the bonds that hold these Ststes together. Sir, at the commencement ot this war the North was a unit and the South was divided Now the North is divided and the South is a unit. Why? Let Senators that ask for success in the war answer the question, why? Because here in this Senate you said to the honest people of the couu try that this war -hould be to preserve the Union and the Constitution, and not to bretk down the institutions of any of the States, aud the people believed you, aud thev rallied from the wheatfields and the corn fields and shops everywhere to make a glorious army. You did not have to send provost marshals alter the young men then, for they rubbed forward themselves, and the que lion was w ho should get into the fii-t regiment Now the bloodhounds of war have tobe pet upon the track of the young men of the country to bring them into theurmy; and why? Because faith has been broken with the people, not by the statesmen with whom it is my pride and pleasure to think and to act, but by the Senators aud Rep te-,iitatives who have attempted to take advsutage ot this convulsion in our country to break down the institutions of the States The country had a right to demand of the Sen ate. the country had a right to demand of Con-gre-aud of the Pre-ident faith to the Critten den resolution, the highest faith, because you asked the people for ttieir money, vou asked them for their blood, and you said it should be upon that proposition, i put it to the honor of any Senator, has it been upon that proposition? Has not every possible opportunity been taken advantage of to strike at the peculiar institution of one section ol the country? I have never con sidered, ns a public man, the question of slavei v in a moral aspect Our lathers have agreed to it; they wrote it down in the Constuuliou that it -hould be respected and protected in certain regards; and as they have covenanted in respect to it, so I have looked to it. To stand upon that covenant and agreement I felt to be my highest duty as a citizen, and especially when I took an oath to re-pect the Constitution that they made Sir, I did not inteud to discuss this question, but rose merely to make these suggestions. I hope to see this Union te-tored; I hope to see it re-t red with the Constitution preserved; but 1 sav to Senators that I have no hope of the Union that will bring us greatness or prosperity outside of the compact that our fathers made ls there any Senator here willing to say iu his place that IM1 vii tue and intelligence of this'day are utenor to the virtue and intelligence of the revolutionary day? I ptesnme not, 1-thepub lie tnuid now in the proper condition to make a new (ioveriiment, to biing these States together agaiu? Sir, our otilv ho;' is to go back agaiu upon the old Constitution the Union as it was. the Constitution as il is Becaure I bel:eve that is the only hope of our country, I oppose all propositions like thit presented by tbe Senator t.om Massachusetts They do no practical good, but every such measure as that says to the Union men of the South, ' You cannot rely itMi the North." The Southern men were encouraged to secede upon the argument presented by Southern dema gotues or MntMMMen. whichever you choose to call them, that the North could not be trusted, that a sectional party controlled the North, and tbat if they remained with the North in the government, their rights would be trampled under toot Has suv occa-ion been let slip iu tbe Congies of t ie Unite.! Mite to make good th.-.t assurance ut the Southern -tat m in and demagogue? Ha not every prediction that they mido to the people to tire iheir minds gwhnM tue government been ru ide good by the action of Congres-? Will a.v man be j;rd enough to state how u is that the cau-e ot inc North Is strengthened and ih.ij of the Sot.th weakened bv dividing the North and uniting tbe South? !l wa- a hard thing to conquer this rebellion hen it was true, as Mr Lincoln said in his MtaMMngeea July. It-til. that iu all the States of the South, except perhaps in South Carolina, there was a Union majority We had enough work t. do then Cot. grows tiveii theu. with ibaM assutance given it iu the President's me-:ige, thought fit to call out a half milMon ot men. and to appropriate $jOO. tNSJ.IH.H) to carry on the war -to carry on the war against a rebe i :. that did not contaiu within it one half of the people of the South to carry on the war tgain-t !: .th, the majori; ot the Sou- . . : ':. :ene. caue But after that, when you have unites! the South, what force 4ofat it icquiic? I'hc coi:te-t ol this year show- n As was buggc.-ti so eil by the Setiator froru Illiuoi-, Mr Richard on, vol have so 'ir.itcd the people of the South as to bring the women into ihe field 1 ttis ks in the change that ha- been brought about withjsj I short three rear- I submit to you. air. wa- that change bronghl bout by any sentiment of the Democrats of the North when tbey asked that the Consta tiou and the Union should stand as our lathers in . hi them with every compact remaining invio

late? You know, every Senator knows, that if we bad stood by that assurance the Union party of the South would bare been sirengthened instead of weakened, the South would bare been still further divided instead of being united, and tbe North would have contineed as a solid wall in tins war. But if Senators think they promote tbe good of the country, if tbeyttbink they strengthen ihe arm of tbe govern saatit by votinc down the laws which our fathers established, which our fathers thought but reflected the true relation between tbe States, if Senators think that this is for the good of the country, of course they will vote for these fjroftnti lions I shall do my duty by voting against all such schemes, and hope sometime to see the day when there will be a sentiment in this country that will bring us back again to the sentime;. t? of the father- and the times that we have turned our backs upon.

The purpose- aud designs of the rebel-, in their movement towa'd tbe North are now more clearly developed by what has taken place during the laut twenty-four hours. In tbe sight of these facts, tbe public w.ll be at a lots which to admire most in our sapient military authorities at Wn-hiiigton. Their pig headed obstinacy in re fusing to believe thit such a movement could be possible, or their shameful stupidity iu neglecting to provide any adequate means to Slav the tide of the invasion Fiery day since the movement began, . have ridiculed it as a mere In r-e stealing raid, utid have assured the public that am; !e mean- had been taken, not only to p-eveut any advance ot the rebels, but also to intercept and capture the "gang of horse thieve-;" and every night the rebels have made a further advance, and their numbers have in ci eased. It is insulting to (ien. Wallace and (ien. Sigel to Ultimate, us the Administration papers do, ihn the Union iroops have been compelled to abandon successively Martmsburg, Williamsport, Bootisboro, Hagerstown, Middletowu, Harper's Ferry, Bolivar Heights, and Frederick, and to permit those places to be occupied and held by the rebels, while the latter were only in inconsiderable torce I know that, when the rebels crossed at the Point of Rocks, the I t ion troops there threw down their arms and deal, both cavulry and infantry, without firing a shot; and their officers afterward excuten themselves by saying that the force ol the er.ei.iy was overwhelming, and that they were not p-.ing to have their men cut up iu a vain attempt -o fight the whole rebel army especially as they '-tad no supports. Bui iu every other instance oi iroops have behaved iu the most gallant maim r, and only evacuated the positions they held aft-.-, fight ing bravely, and after being really over -a elmed bv the superior forces of the enemv. "lis was particularly the case at Harper's Ferrv 1 1 I .ee town, aud at Middlelown. TlfK Com EDERATDS CXOSS Till POTOMAI I TtlR La, COLI MNS.

It will be remembered that all the troops ou the line of tbe Baltimore aud Ohio Railroad, east of the Cumberland, hare now been concentrated at two points, uaOielv, at the Maryland Heights, and at the great bridge over the Monocaiy, thtee miles southeast of Frederick. If your readers will examiue a map of the locality, one which shows tbe roads and mountains, and will observe the relative positions ot the points above named, to Baltimoie aud Washington, the significance of the above move menls will be apparent No real attack has yet been made upon tbe Maryland Heights. What was supposed to be such yesterday, aas only a close reconnoissance, by which the position ol our troops ihere was accurately ascertained. The three columns of Couiederaie troops above i. wiicd, after crossing the Potomac yesterday, udvanced to and took possession of Sharpsburg, Hagerstown, BoontbOfO aba Middletowu. The cavah v is understood to day to be extended iu a line from the 1'otomac river, iu the neighborhood of Poolsville. to the Baltimore and Ohio Kail road, near Monrovia Trie center of this line Bfoaeea the natioojal road near Clarksville.

Thus, then, the Union troops at Maryland Heights and the Monocacy bridge appear to be surrounded on ail sides and cut off Irom rcintorcements. It such is really tbe case, these dispositions are ot course made with the intention of attacking (ien Tyler's force first, iu the hope of forcing it to surrender, and theu of moving on the Union position at the Maryland Heights, by the route indicated iu my letter yesterday. It these maneuvers are successful, I need not say that the case will then have assumed a gravity that will probably, at the eleventh hour, awaken the military authorities at Washington to a sense ot the peril that threatens the capital. 1 INGER OK TUE ISOLATION OF BALTIMORE AM) WASHINGTON KROM THE NORTH. For, if these maneuvers are successful the government will be reduced to the alternative ol recalling the army from before Richmond, or else ot running the risk of seeing oar owu eapi tal in the bauds ol the rebels Once iu possesion of Maryland Heights and Frederick City, the next move ot the Confederates will be to take HJSsessioi. of the railroads coming into Bal timore from the north aud east This could be 1 1 evented by the prompt withdrawal of the troops from Mary land Heights and the Monocacy bridge, and by posting ihetn wheie tbey can bold the r.ilroads uamed, until ihey are reinforced bytroops irom New York and Pennsylvania But there seem- to be no disposition to do this at ;i esent So dating are the rebels, aud so confident in the superiority of their forces, that yesterday, while the column of cava lay above menttoued was in motion, a detachment from it attacked one of our outposts near Washington, and drove them as far as the Chiiu bridge. STRENGTH OF THE REBELS ADMITTED It may be -tated that, evei; those people here a ho u;i to yesterday sneered at the idea ol the retiel- being in Maryland in any lorce. now say tbel they are nii-taken, aud that they are satis ried that there ate at least 4b000 Confederate trojs north of the Potomac, and more coming 1 he people aie so intensely loyal that they denounced it as feu liable only a few days ago to even hint at tbe possibility of (ien Lee being able to make any -uch deinou-tratiou at ail The tact of the rebel cavalry having crossed uear Point of Rocks is confirmed by the testimony of the signal corps with (ieu Sigel and aifj by Gov Curtin CONDITION ol lUK RAILROAD Nothing absolutely certain is yel known in relation to what amount of damage the Confederatehave inflicted on the Biltimore and Ohio Railroad.

PREPARATIONS FO THE DEFENCE OF BALTIMORE. No alarm or apprehension exists here, and Schenck's folly of barricading the streets with barrels has not been repeated. Placards are posted, however, inviting the citizens to form volunteer companies for the defence of the city. DRUID. ----- [Correspondence of the State Sentinel.] An Overland Trip to California FORT KEARNY, N. T., June 29, 1864. ED. SENTINEL: An emigrant's outfit for the Plains may be of interest to some of your readers. It certainly is to the man who foots the bill. He must have sugar, molasses, coffee, tea. rice, hominy, dried fruit, pickles, vinegar, can dies, soap, whisky, flour, bacon, water casks and stoves, to say nothing of a variety of other minor articles usually included in the bill, swelling the sum total to double the estimates of guide books. And I would advise him to provide musquito bars, for reasons apparent upon the faces, arms and other exposed parts of the person of every member of our party. Two different sorts of outfits will be purchased, dependent upon the tastes of buyer. The mace, used at home by the "rough and tumble" of life, will content himself with necessaries, and will travel as comfortably and as rapidly as the person who strives to carry with him the luxuries of home. The term "outfit" has become technical on the fron tier, and its use avoids circumlocution. It is the emphatic word of posters and signs of traders at the trading houses; and before the verdant emigrant gets through the initials of its mysteries, he will have brought home to him a little problem of mathematics, illustrating the powers of depleting one man's pockets and filling another's. I would answer the question "What does one need for the Plains?" thus: What would you provide for a journey from Indiana to Missouri, in an emigrant's wagon? Calculate thei ncreased distance to whatever Pacific State or Territory the emigrant designs going; increase supplies proportionally; add ropes to picket horses or mules, if any are taken, water casks, pickles and dried fruit. Nothing more is necessary, much more may be added, which will encumber your wagons, and increase your troubles. Especially avoid taking with you finical persons, unused to hardships, with inflamed imaginings concerning the wild scenery of the country, the purity of its atmosphere and the romance of camp life. Such persons will enhance the annoyances of the party by complaints of hardships Seeing little of those airy creations of the "yellow kivered" literature to which their intellectual pursuits are usually confined, they experience a revulsion of spirits, finding vent in maledictions, curses of every variety, tears and freaks of obstinacy arid insubordination, wholly incompatible with the peace and well being of the party. Bear in mind that all the bad qualifies of a person are developed in camp life. The angel at home then sheds her wings. leaving her petulence and other disagreeble traits baldly exposed. The man of bland manners elsewhere, here throws off the disguise of polished life, and becomes as boisterous as a New York politician, and turbulent as a Turk. The country from Omaha to the crossing opposite Kearny City, a distance of 197 miles, is a prairie, destitute of timber, except on the water courses, and these of stinted and gnarled growth, and in scanty patches, wholly inadequate to the wants of agriculture and dense settlement. The road follows the course of the Platte river, and is the finest natural road in the world, thus far excelling any plank road. The valley of the Platte is rich without stint, and is rapidly settling up with homestead claimants and squatters. From Omaha to Ft. Kearny, the road is lined with ranches, trading houses and farms, with two or three towns of minor importance. The houses are freqeuently [sic] built of sod, and generally covered with the same material. Fences, except occasional post fences with three narrow planks, are unknown. Hogs are a rarity, and are kept in pens. Crops are therefore, exposed to the depredations of such stock as are permitted the freedom of the common; and whenever a bullock, horse or mule of an emigrant strays upon a corn, wheat or oats patch, he is immediately seized by the owner of the crop and impounded in a pound kept by himself, that is to say, in any pen be may have for his own convenience. Then comes a claim tor damages, generally exceeding the value of the entire crop. One fellow had twentyfour stalks of corn nipped slightly, for which he demanded five dollars Another asked $50 for the damage done to about one half acre, and actually received $30. As a general thing these ranchers and settlers are squatted along the route for the purpose of skinning the emigrant, and tbe Legislature of Nebraska have lent essential assistance in the passage of a law permitting the settler to take up and impound any animals upon his premises in a private pound, and to keep him there till damages and charges are paid, to be ascertained at law, in tedious modes, rather than endure which the emigrant will submit to extravagant extortion. At the Loup Fork of Platte river, you are delivered by the ferryman about half way across :

the river on a bar, and have to make your way thence to the opposite shore through quicksands, along a tortuous route, over which it required eleven yoke of oxen to pull a wagon loaded with 3,000 pounds. Few persons complete the passage without breakages of wagons, harness, &c. If a wagon stops but a moment it sinks to the hubs. To make a successful passage, four or five drivers must walk in the water to their knees, and so push forward the oxen by every known device of the Jehu persuasion, that they shall reach the landing without stopping. For this delectable privilege you are charged the modest sum of $1 50 per wagon and one yoke of cattle, and 25 cents for each additional yoke. Thanks to the Nebraska Legislature who, in their zeal to favor their constituents in their schemes of plunder, have imposed no just limits to ferry tolls. Here is presented the first instance known to man of a "ferry" delivering its victims in the middle of a river with the consolatory injunction from the disciple of Charon "to be kerful, and make the rest of your way over," and then to charge an exorbitant price for getting them in the dilemma. Logs are thrown about midway of the river at the point of a bar to prevent the water from spreading over so large a surface as to permit fording, for the obvious purpose of promoting the ferry owner's interests. In the neighborhood of Grand Island, at and in the vicinity of a post office called Grand Island City, beyond Columbus, is a settlement of German Radicals of the Carl Shurz school. They are squatters, and some of them are cattle thieves, as every emigrant who has unfortunately camped in that neighborhood will attest. They have a stray pen off the road containing over 350 head of cattle, most of them escaped from emigrants. These cattle-thugs stampede and steal cattle, run them off to hiding places till the owner, weary of fruitless search, passes on, when they take them to the stray pen, where they soon accumulate enough charges to eat them up Our party lost an ox in this way in that neighborhood which has not yet been recovered. For these reasons, and others of a similar character, these ranches and settlements are serious annoyances to the emigrant who carries his supplies with him, and depends upon grass for food for his stock. Indeed stock have to be herded night and day, when not on travel, from Omaha to this point, and the emigrant, tired of the exacting of importunate squatters, rejoices when he reaches this place, from whence he bidgood bye to houses and civilization. Fifty miles out from Omaha, the Pawnee Indians, those Bedouins of the plains, greet you. clamorous for money, clothes, powder, shot, food and whisky. They compare favorably with Lazaroni of Italy, or the Leperos of Mexico, in professional begging. They present all the shades of the business, the limp, lame, halt, blind and decrepit, men, women and children. One approaches you with a paper, given him by a good natured emigrant, stating that the bearer is a "good Pawnee, a friend of the white man, and has fought the Sioux " Another has had all his horses astolen by the Sioux, his squaw and papooses captured or killed. Another good naturedly offers his services in camp duty, while his comradee [sic] menaces you with threatening looks. The more you give the more they ask. Feed the man one day, and the uext day, twenty miles thence, he brings to your hospitality the squaw and papooses, together with sundry other near relations, each claiming your bounty, urging the precedent established yesterday. Few of them are honestand the settler drives them away without ceremony. The less attention shown them by the emigrant, the better for his material interests, for less than a day's intercourse with them takes the starch out of his dreams of Indian character. The Platte river is a wide, shallow stream with shifting channel and rapid current, defying navigation, and straying amid numerous islands, covered with cotton wood, elm and cedar trees. Just now it is at a high stage, and at this point is two miles wide. Buffalo yet linger in the neighborhood, and a prairie dog town of several miles in extent is within view of our camp. The streets are not
