WEEKLY SENTINEL.

MONDAY, - -. - JUNE 1. A Sad Retrospect. Before the first gun was fired at Sumter the Indianapolis Journal advocated with el and ability the peaceful secession of all the States thit deiired-to withdraw from the Uuion. It ft-jtued that thi was the true policy of, the nation. And it repeatedly atated that a civil war was a worse evil th tn the is of a dozen State. Months after the w ir hvj beeo inaugurated the Journal in an article repeated its confidence in the positions it had assumed In f.tvor of peaceful ae cession, and it then expreed it willingness to permit the Rebel States to leave the Union, if they so desired, noon the single condition that they should lay down tlieir arms. With such a record the organ of the Rep-j'olican party pf In diana attempts to call In question our patriotism and consistency. . ' " Our neighbor is not yet prepared to shuffle off its mortal coil. It has too much to tepent of. The meanest traitor ii he who proves falge to his own convictions. The Journal has that heinous sin to- wash out before death. We hope it will net be called hence before opportunity is given it to do works meet for repentance. And It has a great deal to do in that line. It would take oceans of water to obliterate its iniquities since it had a being. We commend to its attention the lines of the sacred rhymer: "Wife tbe lamp holds out to burn The vilest sinner maj return." The Journal thinks that the views we ex pressed on Monday were the result of sudden conversion. Not so. We expressed the same sentiments when the Journal was reiterating its pious horror of the evils of civil war and its -coDent to disunion to v secession to a peaceful separation of the . States that desired to withdraw from-, the Union. No one who is acquainted with the record of our neighbor can believe that it has . beea honest in its advocacy of a warthat would precipitate upon the country calamities to which - ft said the division of the nation was a blessing in comparison. It was its selfi-ihness, it9 pecuniary interest, the filthy Intfre it and its friends would pocket out of the strife alone that has induced it to favor it Like a vampyre, as longa it can fatten sipoo the festering corruptions which grow out of the unnatural controversy, it is willing to "Cry havoc. Ami let slip tbe dogs of war." What a ppectutle does such moral deformity present! Our neichbor should never look an honest man in the face and say "war" in view of its own record in opposition to a civil war and the fulfillment of its own predictions of 'he terrible calamities which wonll follow such a contest.. We hare no account yet that Vickburr has been tiien, but we adhere to the conviction that we expressed from the beginnin of the hostilities, that it was for the highest interest of the nation for the interest cf the people of 11 sections of the old Union that the war should be brought to a speedy termination. In the commencement of the struggle we exprersed the belief that it could have been settled by negotiation and a fair adjustment of the differences between tbe North . and the South. But blood now seems to be the only arbiter. If so. sound policy and the dictates of humanity demand that the issue should be fought out as sharply and quickly as possible. A long wr wastes treasure and blood, and develops all the savage instincts of our nature. It even makes a brute of our former "amiable, and gentle, and very refined neighbor. .It is a sad retrospect for the Journal to review its inconsistencies. The Journal makes some extracts from articles that we have written upon the condition of the country. We refer it to nn article, which we subjoin, published in the Sentinel on the lOtb of May, lgbl, to show that the Tiews we expressed in our article of Monday last are identical with those w6 entertained two years ago.. Head: THE ISSUE. There is no mistaking the prosoect before us. Tbe political difficulties of the country will be settled by the sword ai d by that alone. The con tending sections of the country are marsh illin; their forces for the contest, and civil war, w ith all its horrid consequence, will soon be inaugurated. As the New Yoik Tribune remarks. "n 1 peaceful adjustment is a sheer impossibility," and "let the folly be utterly hooted of snppos ng the Rebel will not fiaht. They trill fight, they must fiht. and that desperately." Etstern Vir gm a will le th.i scene of the great conflict. The reports indicate tliAt the Confederate force are rapidly concentrating in that quarter. Thev will have a lire army well disciplined, well equipped and well prepared for the conies'- Th Government will be fully prepnred to meet them. And when it come, the conflict will be terrible, , or else we are m:taketi in the character of the men who are engaged ir the struggle. What ever may be the result of the first contest, ihe Government must eventually triumph. She has the resources to insure this result the men, th? moner, the navy and the determination to maintain LUe integrity of the Union, no in t tier what may be the sacrifice to secure it. "Whatever 1iKlividu.il opinions maybe entertaiued as to the policy of the war, or the cause which have produced it. the responsibility nf the crLis cannot be evaded. There is now no cb"ce jn the matter. The . Government mast Le sust lined, and the sooner the con-te-t can be determined, the better for the country. Hourly we are expecting to chronicle the beginning of hostilities, aid when commenced there will be uo cessation of the struggle until determined by the arbitrament which has been forced upon the nation. The Administration has settled its policy; and it is, that there shall be no dismemberment of the Uuion. Tbe (Jovern- . . ment has determine! to conquer a peace, and the sword will not be sheathed until the Issue is determined. After the issue of force is settled, there will arise the greater question of the reconstruction of the Government, and the terras upon which it shall be constructed.

John Wilkes, in 1S65, was arbitrarily and illegally arreted for advocating- the freedom of the prtss in bis journal the North Bn'ton. A Chief Justice of the Court of Queen's Bench, in those daya of servility to the Crown, bad the courage to grant the writ of habeas corpus, and to declare . the warrant of the Secretary uf State il!e;al A jury awarded him large damages agaiust the member of the Administration who issued the ' arrant. The people were aroused. In the per on of Mr. Wilkes their dearest liberties the liberty of the pre and of public diecufction were ' end ingemJ, . They returned him to Parliament from the largest and most important constituency in the kingdom. Ju spite of all the corrupt in-g floetices of the Crown and the Administration, . the people returned hi in three times to Parliament. The citizens of London elected Lim Lord ' Mayor of their city. - Sir Francis Bordett assailed the Administration 1 "that day He vindicated tbe rights of tbe -piople to meet and discus their political grievanee. "He wm arrtr ,rilv arretted, and Imprisone.I In th4 tower of London." The spirit of the English people were t'iu ardneed.

And I command the historical parallel to the no tice of the free citizens of the State of Ohio." Numerous-petitions have recently been received by tbe President fur the release of ValIaadigbam.

As much confusion seems to prevail with re gard to the legal aspects of the arrest, trial, and conviction of Mr. ValUndigiiam ou the "charge of giving aid and comfort to the enemy, we think it proper, in view of the interest attaching to this question, considered as one of the law rather than of military caprice, to place (Tis tinctly be Tore our readers the points on which it turns. The charge brought against Mr. Vallamliv jam was as follows: ' "Publicly expressing In violation of General Order T?o 38, from Headquarter Department of tbe Ohio, his ijmtat by f jr those In arm sesinst the Government of tbe nited States , declaring di-tloyal ser'imenta and opinion, with tbe object and purpose of weakening tbe po.rer of the Government in its efforts to suppress ao uulaai'ul rebellion." The specification adduced by the Judge Advo cate in support of this charge is i.i the following terms: "In this, that the said Clement L. Vallandiftham, a citizen of tbe State of Obio, on or about tbe first day of May, 161, at Mount Vernon, Knox county, Obio, did publicly address a Iarg4 meeting of citizvan, arid did utter wnt ments, in word or in eflect as follows LH clarin? tbe present war 'a wicked, cruel, and unnecesaary war;' 'a war not beinjr waged for the preservation of the Union;' 'a war for the purp of cruohino; out lihertv and erecting: a denpotisr:' a vr for the freedom of the blacks and tbe enslavement of tbe whites;' statin? that if 'tbe Administration bad i wbed tba war could have been honorably terminated months a?.n' that peace might have been honorably obtained by listening to tbe proposed Intermediat.on of France;' that 'proposition by which the Southern States could be woa back and the Sonth guaranteed their riKbts under the Constitution had been rejected the iay before tbe late battle at Fredericksburg by Linco'n and his minion?, meaninr, thereby the President r,f the United States and those under him in authorit). Charging 'that the Government of tbe L'nited States were about to appoint military Marshals in every district to restrain tbe people of their liberties, to deprive them of their rieht and privileges.' Characterizing General OHer No. 3H, Headquarters Department of tbe Obio, as 'a base usurpation of arbitrary authority;' Inciting bis hearer to resist the Fame by saying 'the sooner the peo pie inform the tniuiun of usurped power tbsttliey will not submit to such restrictions upon tbeir liberties, tbe better.' Declariue 'that be was at all times, and upon all occasions, resolved to do wliai he could to defeat the attempts nw being m.vle to build up a monarchy upon the rain of our free Government;' a-erting 'tbut he firmly believed, as he said aix months a;o, that tbe men in power are attempting ".o establish a despotism in this country more cruel and more oppressive than ever -xisie before.' All of which opiuioos and rentiments he well knew did aid, comfort and encuurace thoe in arms against the Government, and ccul I hut induce in hit hearers a distrust of tbeir own Government and sympathy for those in arms againut it, and a disposition to resist lb lawa of the land. M. Crrrs, Captain 11th Infantry, "Judge Advocate Department tf the Ohio." It will thus be seen that the charge and the specification, if entirely sustained by the evidence (as to which in this inquiry we rai.-e no question), seek to convict Mr. Vailandiharo, a citizen of Ohio, of "giving aid and comfort to the enemy." Now, this offen has, by the recent legislation ot Congress, been made expressly cognizable by Uierourtsof the United States. This will appear from the following statute, being "an act to suppress insurrection, to punish treason and rele!Iicn, and enfi-cate the property of rebels, and for other purposes," epproted July 17, 1K62, and found in vol. 12th, chapter 195, pae 5?!), of the Statutes at Larjre, s firm to. I by order of Congress VVe cite the sections relative to this topic, as follows: "Site 2. And Is it further entt ted, That if any person ball hereafter incite, set on font, assist, or engage in any lebellion or iusuir-ction again-t tbe authority of tbe United Stafs, or the I iws thereof, or hall give aid or comfort thereto, or ball engage In or give aid and comfort to any such cvsl ng reuell nn or insurrection, and be convicted thereof, such person shall be punished by impriso: ment for a period not exceeding ten years, or by a fine not exceeding ten thousand didlars, and by tbe liberation of hU.'lavri if any h have; or by both of said punishments, at tbe disrreti"n of the court. "Sec 3. Aniib it further timcled, ThU every person guilty of either of the offenses described In this act shall be forever incapable and disqualified to bold any office under tbe United States." The tribunal to take cognizance of such cases and questions distinctly appears from the concluding section of this statute, as follows: "Sire 1. And be it further tnntttd. That the courts of tue LnUed States ball have full power to in-titute proceeding, make orders and decrees, issue proce-5, and do all other things necessary to carry this act into effect." This is conclusive as to the jurisdiction of the courts of the United States, and of them alone, over the offense alleged to have been committed bv Mr. VallandiRham. But the last Congress did not stop here. As if to shut the door against any such proceedings as thne instituted by Uen. Bnrnside, it. passed an act, approved March 3d. 1863, expressly "relat ing to li:ibc;a corjin, auj regulating judicial pro ceelings in certain cae$." The sections of this act relevant to the eae of Mr. Vallandioham may be found on page 755 of the volume of the Statutes at Large as just printed by order of Cou gress, and are as follows: ' Be it rnactd ly the SHite ttivl rf Hprt'n Uttrent" the l utt ft tote Ammen in Concrete aMfMMta, i nar, uuncg me pmrnt rebellion, the Kresdeiit f the l'nited Slates, whenever, ia his judgment, the public safety may require it, is authorized to suspend the writ of habeas corpus in any eae throughout tbe United States, or any part thereof.

That the said Judge aatl a satisfied suck allegation ar true." The reader can easily educe from these pro visions the law of the question raised by the arrest of (Jen BurniJe. They will perceive that pro ceedings tinder the wrU of "habeas toifiis'are to suspendH by the courts' whenever and wherever Ihe privilege of this writ has been u-pciwltnl by the IVesident, which is not the case in the Kt its of Ohio"' Judge Leaviil, in refttiing V grant the writ sued out in beh:df of Sir. Vallandighatn, statetl that he had not seen this law, which was cited in court by Jlr. Pugb. the attorney ol Mr. Vallaudighara We inter from this fact that Judge Leavitt does not deem it necessary to have a kaduledg of the laws which if. ish is

sworn duty to administer,-or that his means of procuring information under this head are more limited than those possessed by laymen who read the journals which are authorized.to publish the laws of the United States officially, or who possesses a sufficient Interest in such matters to purchase the volntne printed by the eminent pub lishers,. Messrs. Little ii Brown, of Uoston, under the authority of CongTess. His ignorance of the laws may be his best excuse for not do-? iug his duty nnder them. ' And when the Judge of the United States is found ignorant of the legislation of Congress on this head, surely Uen. Burnside may be excused for not knowing that Congress, by the act of July 17th. lfC2, had expressly provided for the trial by the courts of the offenses he alleges against Mr. Vallandighnm. Nor is it any answer to say, as Gen. B. nrges ia his statement mace to the Judge, that " we are in a state of civil war, and air emergency is upon us which requires the operations of some "power that moves more quickly than the civil," for it was precisely iu view of snch an "emergency" that Congress passed the act of last July 17th, already cited, and it was to exclude the possibility of the arbitrary detention of persons held "as prisoners of the United States by order or authority of the President of the United State, as State or political prisoners, or otherwise than as prisoners ot of war," that Congress passed the act approved on the 3d of March last, and the sections of which, s far as they relate to this case, we have recited above. The intervention of a court martini, illegally charged with the trial of a citizen, does not alter the nature of the imprisonment of Vallandighim, who, while deprived of his liberty, must be regarded ii law as one "imprisoned by the order or authority of the President, acting through the Dea t ment of War." If it be true, as is said, that Mr. Vallandighatn has been imprisoned in Fort Warren by order of Gen. Burnsie, confirming the sentence of the court martial illegally charged with the trial of a citizen made cognizable by the courts, it follows that Mr. Vallandighim is now held as a "State or politics! prisoner," within the terms of the act of March 3, 1FC3, and it will therefore be tbe duty, ns we doubt not it will be the pleasure, of Mr." Secretary St&uton, to report the name of Mr. Vallandighatn to the Judge of the United States Circuit or District Court which has local and legal jurisdiction of the offense for which Mr. Vallandighatn is now irregularly detained, that he may be put on trial according; to the statutes made and provided for precisely such ofienes as he Is alleged to have committed. His conviction under such circumstances would carry with it the sanction of law, and as such would receive the assent of law abiding citizens, and bo a terror to evil doers. We have said that we believe it will give Mr. Stanton pleasure to pursues legal course in procuring a regular trial for Mr. VallandiRham under the constitution r.nd laws of the land, that he may receive justice, or suffer punishment according to bis deserts; for Mr. Stanton signalized his accession to office by an "order," in which he designated the circumstances that seemed to justify, only for a time, a departure from "the normal course of administration," at the outbreak of the rebellion, when the Government was called suddenly to meet an "emergency which Congress had not anticipated and for which it had not provided." To this effect, he directed as follows tinder his order of February 14, lf62: "The breaking out ol a formidable Insurrec ion. based

on a conti ct of politics) ideas, beina an event without precedent in the United States, ws necessarily attended by great confusion and rerplekity of tbe public mind Disloyalty, before nnsupected, suddenly became bold, and treason atonibed the world by brniring at once into the fiel I mi'itary furo- superior in numbers to the standing army of the United Males. "Kven In the portions of the country which were most loyal, politi al combinations and secret societies were forme! furthering the work of dimnion, while, from motives of disloyalty or cupidity, or from excited passions, or perverted sympathies, individuals were fouud furnishing n en, n.oney, and materials of war ana supplies to the hvurat'iits' miliary and naval forces. Armies, ships, fortifications, navy-yards, arsenal-, military posts, and garrison", em after another, betrayed or abandoned to tbe in-nrgents. "Congress had not snticlpated and m had not provided for tbe emergency. The unlcinal authorities were powerless and Inactive. Tbe judicial machinery seemed as if it bad been devirned not to sustain tbe Government, but to embarrass and betray it. In this emergency tbe President felt it his duty to erapi y with erhrey the extraordinary powers which the Const itutloncon'ides to l.tm in cafes of Insurrection. He called into the Held such military and naval force', unauthorized by the existing laws, as seemed necessary. He directed measures to prevent the use of the post office for tre tonable correspondence, lie subjected passengers to and from foreign countries to new passport regulations; and he instituted a blockade, suspended the writ of habeas corpus in various places, and caused persona who were represented to him as being or about to engage in di.-loyal and treasonable practices to be arrested by special civil, as well as military agencies, and detained in military custody, when necessary, to prevent tbem and deter others from such practices. Examinations of such cases were instituted, and ome of the persons ro artested have been discharged from time to time undercircumtances orupon conditions compatible, aa was thought, with the public ' safetv. ' Meantime a favorable change of puM'c opinion bas occurred. Tbe line between loyalty Slid disloyalty is plainly tnnl the whole structure of the Government Is firm and stable; apprehensions of public danger and facilities for treaonalle practice have diminished with the paw ions which prompted heedless persons to adopt them. The Insurrection is believed to have culminated, and to be declining. "The President, in view of the e fact, and anxious to favor a return to the normal course of the Administration, as far are?irdfor the public welfare will allow, directs that all political prisoners or state prisoners now held in military custody be released on tbeir subscribing to a parole engnginc tbem to render no aid or comfort to the enemies in hostility to tbe United States. "Extraordinary arrests will hereafter be made under the direction of the military authorities alone." Coneress has by its recei.t legislation "anticipated" precisely such a case as that raised by the alleged conduct and langua-s of Mr. Vallandigham, and has thus made provision for the"emer gency." The only justification heretofore assigned for such extraordinary arrests in the heart of ft loyal population uo longer exists, for the norLial ' course" of proceeding is now plainly marked out by the law made and provided for the trial mid punishment of ull who give "aid and comfort to the enemy." and who are "citizens of States in which the administration of the laws has continued unimpniied in the Fed eral Courts.

He, in fact, dfsircs that it should be known, that the whole nation may k on its guard. I am authorized to say that Mr. Barclay has been in close counsel with our highest authoritie-i here, and is more than ever convinced of the imperious recessity involving upon our people throughout the whole land, to awake at once to a realizing sense of preparing to counteract the contingency of an invasion of Maryland and Pennsylvania by the Rebel hordes It is unnecessary hr me to speak plainer.

Mr. Barclay returns to Washington on import ant business, after which be proceeds immediate ly to llarrisburg, to confer with Governor Curtin upon matters ot weight moment touching a (lairs in Peimsvlvabia. ..lie U fully live tu the import ance of his mission, and of his State losing no time in tbeorgatiit.ition of her militia, that she mav be iu roadineee to meet aiiT emerencv. All V the signs ol the times, and very many indications visible only to those who see behind the curtain, in the arena of secessruiiism, tend to show that the t'on federates will, if they can, invade Mary land and Pennsylvania this summer To prevent such a calamity weheedonjy be prepared iu time to repel it. The matter is one of great serioiiMies-, and no time should be lost in civing to it prompt, ener getic consideration. To be forewarned is tote forearmed.

Flour declined to $4 50 for superfine; wheat to$l for red, and $1 12 for while; corn to454Sc lor ear; oats to 59c, and rye to 7273c. The decline in flour and grain the" last two months has been large, and resulted in serious losses to holders The following are the comparative figures: March 24. If y 33. S. F.

Whisky declined f 4'Jc, but was forced back to 4')ioC. Tbe distillers cmnot aft'ord to trxke the article at this rate, and are stopping, which is the chief cause of the large decline in corn and oe. A further decline in bran, shorts and ship stuff has been establisned, with a dull market. Rectified petroleum has largely advanced and at the close was held at 5(7? 60c. There is an immense demand for petroleum cooperage at $2 50 per birrel. We hare been informed by dealers in the article that there are orders now in this city for 10,000 barrel. There has been quite nn excitement in the market for petroleum under the late news from abroad, and prices have largely advanced in the oil regions of Pennsylvania. In Pittsburtr. at the last advices, the excitement had subsided some, and the market was quiet at26(27c for crude in barrels, and 53 (3 55c for refiued; benzine was dull at 20 23c fur deodorized. . The hist advices from England reported a quiet market. Linseed oil very dull an 1 lower. It was offered at $1 10 at the close, without buyers. We uotice a good demand for pork and lard barrels for future delivery, but coopers are not disposed to m-ke contracts at $1 25 for puik barrels, which is the rate offered. We did not succeed in finding out the price offered for lard barrels. There has not been much done in provisions, but prices are in favor of buyers The future of the tu nket does not look well for holders. No new feat uie in groceiies. From the Cincinnati Enquirer. Hon. C. L.. Vallanttlsrhani Iii He ceptlon by tbe Hebtls. The Murfreeaboro correspondent of the Commercial lurnithes that paper with some items lespecting Mr. Valhtidigham's passage to his Southern prioon, which nresomewhat interesting. He si: "V LKFKitf DOBO, May 23, 15C3. Vallandighatn arrived here ou a special train under a strong escort, at ten o'clock last evening (Sunday,) having left Louisville in the morning and p.ifred through Nashville without stopping. '.'His arrival waj expecte.iby the military publie, but its time not being known, no demonstration of any kind took place. Indeed ! That was a sad disappointment, we have uo doubt Ed. Enq He was quietly taken in a carriage to the quarters of Major Wiles, the Provost Marshal General, where he was seen by Rosccrans and a number of other officers. He appeared to be fully composed, and abstained from the expression of any offensive sentiment." Another wonder: The idea that the great peace agitator, who had been so bolt , tearless and outspoken, in the cause ol his country, against official usurpations. Government plun derer, Abolition Disunionists and clerical hypo crites, should abstain from the expression of any offensive sentiment, must have made the caged lion look like a meek kitten, in the eyes of those aiound him, who expected to hear him roar and shake his mane, under the influence of uncontrollable passion, hatred and revenge. Ed Exq "At 2 A. M., his southwaid jonrney whs continued. Major Wiles, with a mounted escort, started down ta take him beyond our lines nn the Shelby ville pike. " Bv the way, the prisoner was cheerful and discussed his situation very coolly, but upon p proachins the nearest Kebel pickets, com mind el by Colonel Webb, of the 54 h Alabama, aome eight miles out, he bee t me jerceptibly affected." Very Tew who are about to enter a prison, knowing the sentence which consigns him there to be iu defi ince of the Cousti uiion and laws of his country, and in violation of the birthright of an American etiizen. but would become perceptibly affected. Nothing but the stolidity which years ol despotism produces by crushing out all manhood, could be otherwise thtn affected on such an occasion En. Emq " , "Upon tiking leive of his companions he said, in stibsiar c : I am a citizen ol the United States and loval to them, and want you to anderstnnd that you leave me here as a prisoner to the Confederate authorities ' ' "To C..I. Webb he made a iTmilar declaration. The former received him with the rem irle that lie had read his speeches, but did not like them, nn 1 that be could not receive him within the Confed erate line', but would tM-rmit hint to remain at Lhw pol until he lus ascertained the pleasure of bis superiors. "The flas of truce party then left Vallandig. ham to his lute, and returtied " This correspondent further says: 'I deem it more than probable that in tho face of the antagonism to the South he has assumed 111 it, the enemy will refuse to receive lnm. "He was given to understand by General Ru.-e crans that, should he arrange to return int our lines in some way, the President's order to car ry bis original sentence into effect would be executed." Another correspondent has the following ou the same subject: . . , . , "MiBrREESB iBO, May 21. 'C. L. Vallandlgham arrived here last night at ten o'clock, by special train from Nashville He was placed under heavy guard at the office of the Provost Marshal General, and detained until two o'clock this morning, guarded by two companies of the Fourth Regular Cavalry, and accompanied by the Provoit Marshal General. Major Wile; bis assistant. Captain Goodwin; Colonel McKibben and Colonel Ducat. . He was then driven to a liou?e in the vicinity ol our extreme outposts. At daylight a guard moved forward, under a flag of truce, untd the pickets of the enemy appeared in Bight. . .Major Wiles and Colonel McKibben alighted from their "conveyance, mounted horses, and rode forward to the enemy's lines, and etated to the officer commandinK the, pickets the object of their visit. The Colonel to whom they were referred declined at first to re ceive the prisoner. "A statement of the case being reiterated,-and an urgeut appeal being again made by Federal officers, the Rebel Colonel finally consented. Th! carriage then started forward, and passed fur within the enemy's lines, and the prisoner delTv. ered to Rebel guards. Mr. Vallandighatn, on being transferred to the enemy, said to the guards taking him under charge, and asked Federal officers surrendering him to mark his words: 'I am a citixen f the State of Ohio, United States of America, i am sent within vour lines contrary

to my will and wish.' I ask that yea receive me as your prisoner. - - - "He then repeated the words, that they might be more firmly impressed, and bade adieu to the officers who brought hint. , "The Rebels promim! that they would send the prisoner forward to Shelbvville aa toon as possible. - The Colonel receiving bim did not accept him as a prisoner, bat as a citizen, to be sent for disposal to the Rebel headquarters at Shelbvville." This is the Commercial's account. The Murrreeloro correspondent of the Cin cinnati Gazette thus details Mr, V.'a declaration to the Rebels who received him. He said: "I am a citizen of Ohl and of the United States. I am here within your lines by force and gainst my will. I, therefore, surrender myself to you as a prisoner of war." . . The correspondent of the Gazette, a bitter political opponent, adds: "The .bearing of Mr. Vallandighatn throughout the whole affair was modest, sensible and dignified. " So the upshot of the matter is that tbe Rebel will probably take Mr. Vallacdigham as an enemy, and keep him a prisoner of war. . Interesting frwm Louisiana.

We were much pleased last week to greet the familiar face of H. B. Tebbets, Esq , formerly so well known from his efforts for the establish ment of a North Atlantic telegTaph line (securing from tbe Danish Govemmeut important concessions for this object), but who has been, till now, shut in on his extensive plantations in Louisiana, within the Confederate lines. It is gratifying to know that he has always been the firm opponent of secession; and when, y reason of the recent advance of Gen. Grant, Carrol Parish, Louisiana, came once more under the tegis of the Union banner, Mr. T. and family embarked on a Federal steamer from Transylvania Landing, a few miles above Vicksburg and sailed North. The accounts brought by Mr. Tebbets are exceedingly interesting, as getting forth, in an intelligent and impartial manner, the true condition of affairs among the loyal slaveholders of the South; also showing the effect of substituting Federal for Confederate rule, and affording some criterion from which to judge of th prospects of growing cotton under the new regime, established by Adjutant General Thomas, of the War Department. What he says in regard to the effect and operations of the late inundations at Lake Providence, &c, is also deserving of attention. In regard to the latter, our informant states that 110 permanent injury has been done. Already the extensive and fertile tracts recently submerged are in excelleut condition for the plow, enriched by the heavy alluvial eeJiment which covers them The proportion of territory which received injury is very small, and that actually done is no more than what is experienced every two or three years by the natural overflow of the Mississippi The nf-nuiit given afford a 8d stale of what it costs to be a Union man in the interior of Louisiana. 1 11 voluntarily placed between Scvlla and Charvbdis. he too often suffers from maurauders of both sides. Of the Union officers, chief in authority, we hear no complaint wh ttever. To be informed that an officer belongs to the regular army, tr is a graduate of Wrst Point, is to receive a gu inntee that the rights of person and property will be scrupulously observed within his jurisdiction; but it "m also true that attached to the army in a subordinate capacity are many po litical adventurers temporsrily adorned . with shoulder stmp. who seem to regard Southern men indiscriminately as enemies of the Govern ment. and to le tieited nccorJingly. As Mr. Tehliet's experience with negroes is a fair illustration of what has befallen other gentlemen similarly situated and .shows belter than any thins else the fr ictical wmkiiig of the "policy" of the Adiniiii-traiioii. we shall be pardoned for singling on Ca 1 nil Parish. It may be stated, then, th a t of iiIkiiiI 4'K) negroes on the plantation who were forcibly removed by milit ary order, (in accordance with orders that no slave shall be involuntarily deprived uf his liberty,) al! but say one third returned when permitted to do so on the transports by which they were removed; and Mr. T. is of the opinion that lew would h ive remained away, hid they not meinwhile straggled beyond reach of information Their brief liberty was accompai icd by sevete suffering. Deprived of the coiniorts of 1 heir cabins, sustained by food to which they were not accustomed, and thrown helple-slv upon ihe world, vmauy fell sick. Scarcely any returned in fu'.l physical vigor; so that about thirty of the four hundred died in a few days after reaching home In all, there were not far from eiiilit hundred from Like Providence alone, win ncie eutyevted to this exfoiieiice. On finding tint the td ives thus releases! from, their plantations were becoming n burden to the Government many of them hiving families-t Adjutant General Thomas promised a plan to hire them out ns free negroes, and e le.irn that now the larger pirt of them re tc'.ained on the plantations, eubject to the order of general agents; or, what is more usml, Northern men are taking . up the abandoneJ plantations, bireing nezrnes, and growina cotton the negroes ofien working "011 shares," us it is t u-toni try among laborers in farming countries at the North I he male negroes receive seven ilollms per mouth lor their labors or its equivalent, and the women five dollars. The aim of Gen Thomas is to make the negroes support themselves. Where plantations re tot abandoned, proposals ie made to their owners to hire the negroes or rent the land. A guaraniee Is thus ufT.it tied that the buds will be occupied, and thenegrus be kept together till . the close of tho war. O herise the plantations would soon prow up with Cottonwood, and cost as much to reclaim them as if recovered from the primitive ildenie?s. And again, many loyal owners do not care to adott the free labor plan themselves, preferring that others should make the exjajriment, till peace is re established. In this way plauters may relieve themselves from reiousibility and await the issues of the war, perhaps in sonic retreat i.i the free States. Our inform nit is of the belief that the proportion of cotton rai.-el in Louisiana under the Gov eminent a -lent, compared with the former product, will be very small This is especially true of the current year, as the planting of cotton was commenced Um 1 .te. Co' ton should be planted bv the first of Ajiril and com, by he first of March, but up to the middle of Ust April not a seed had been put in the ground. It would take till the fjrt of M iy to organize the new labor system mid ;et t lie seed in, but should the season happen to le good a fair crop will be gathered. N.Y, Jour, of Com. UwroaTl-XATKAKD PROBABLY FaTAL ReKCOI'X . TE. AT Sallx liy gentlemen front Salem, Iudiana, we Ic rn that an unfortunate and probably fatal rencounter occurred in th.it town yesterday between Col. Horace Heffi en, editor of the Salem Democrat, and William Williams, Auditor of, Washington county . The particulars, as nearns we could ascertain were about as follows: Tbe parties met nt the Clerk's office, and a violent quarvel ensued between them in reference to a charge circulated that it was Williams who gave theiufirmatitin which led to the arrest of Mr. Peugh, in this city, for purchasing firearms coo trary to the Diilitirv order prohibiting their pur chase ami sale The parties finally sepaiated. Col. Helfrcti going 10 his office. He 80011 return . ed, bowcier. and 'h1 to Mr Williams that they were Iben both cool, and that he (William) lud S'tid wonlstliat liemusi take back; also that lie (Ueff.en) bad ahl woids that be would take back. Williams refusing to do this, a collision ensued, in which Col. Heffren, with a eluobed pistol, sirack Williams several blows, oue of ihctn tracturing the i-kull near the temple and .mother fracturing the cheek bone We understand that Williams is not expected to lecover. Col. Heffren, we believe, was not hurt - Both parties, it is said, were armed with revolvers, but we did not lenrn which of them made the assault.' . P. S. Since the above was written, we learn that Mr. Williams will probably recover. Col. Heffieu has iiotbeeu arrested "N. A. Ledger. : ' 7 From the Hartford Times. The Lofal League Illustrated." , In a town uot far from Harford, the day "after the late storm, a lady with two children was driving her carriage along the muddy road, and coming to a bridge, oue wheel broke through. The Horse was uneasy, and the lady frightened. Indeed, the and her children were in danger. The lady wore the ribbon badge of the Loyal League. A good natured Irishman camealoug in good lime, and taking the horre Irom llie shalts, he lifted the wagon from the hole, and harnessed up the animal again, leaving the lady and her little ones sale beyond the bridge. She began to thauk the kind hearted Irishman, when he politely tipped his slouched hat, and said pleasantly: "Don't spake to me, plase, madam; you're of the Royal League, and I'm a true Seymour Democrat; you cau't spake to me, I tee by jour gay ribbons thiol kind of folks mustn't talk to Democrats, or have anything to do with tbem. Good morning to you, madam; God bless ye. and may the light of day never more shine upon the trouble that would come near ye. , But don't hurt yourself in spaking to me, please." , Bowing politely, he pasted on. The lady opened her eyes, tore off the badge of the "Royal League," and wouldn't put 00 another for the world.

The President has remitted the sentence to be cashiered against M--jor Samuel D-iwsoo, of tbe liuii regulars, and he is reinstated in com m ind by general order. All requisition for the rrtvment of ' the troops up to the 1st of Miy 1-tvebeen filled within a fortnight, thirtv seven millions six hundred dollars having been required for that purpose. Indiana, accordinff to ofSci d data, hag fur nished an excess of 19,000 men over ber quota of the former calls, which will nearlv fill her quota if the next call is not over 2'MI,(10() men. The Medical Department lias sent abundant supplies to Vicksburg, and the surgeons there al reidy have everything, except luxuries, which the wounded will need. Acate, of the Cincinnati Gazette, says that Gen. Halleck his been passing the winter at his splendid apartments hi ease, translating a French military book lor a New York publishing bouse. According to official returns Illinois has raised under the last two calls an eicess of six thousand men over its quota. This added to the nineteen thousand excess under the previous call, makes a total excess of about twentythree thousand. Major Nathan Early wine, of the 4tb Indiana cavalry, convicted of converting to his own use two muies, has leeti dismissed the service. John E. Wilbur, 3J New Hampshire, has also been dismissed the service. The Albanv Argns siys that the returning soldiers are full of enthusiasm for McClellan. When asked why McClellan fnilel on the Peninsula, they answer. "Recause he had two armies to contend with the Rebels iu front and the politicians in the rear. t The following Indiana regiments are supposed to have been engaged in the l.ti battles under Grant, viz: The 8th, 11th.
