ItuMicating 1'rrbapi. Some tea or twelve dra ago, Bis Excellency O. P. M., as Iiis conf.ileiiti-l friends and subalterns gave out, left the citj to spend a briet perioJ at Centreville. to look after bis farming interests and enjof a few days respite from the cures of State. His Excellency, after his arduous labors, needed a little time for ruciution, or recupera tion, or whatever you may call it, and he therefore betook himself, as did Washington and JlfrcKAOx. and M.iisox and Wnrr.i, and Clay. and all the pre it lights identified with American history and American ftme, to feed the chickens and the pi; to watch the gambols of his flocks and his. herds; to cultivate hia ctbh:ges, his rutabagas, his beet, onions, parsley and. parsuip; to ?ee the wheat ch.wige to its golden hue and ripeu for the sickle 6r some modern patent reip ing machine; to look uoon the rich meadow as they, mature for tbe cythef to hear the corn crack as it almost springs from the earth under the influence of the he.it and dews of hot sum mcr nights it a word, to enjoy all the felicities Ihnfa' rural" Tsfe äfTJida."We Tmost envv His Excellency tbe enjoyment 'oT hUTural retreat, where, for a while, forgetting, or unmindful of the anxieties of public life and the turmoils which attend it. he can revel in the pristine bennies of nature, or the cultivate! fields teeming wiih the TY'U products of the husband mau's labwv Beutiful Centreville! Happy Moktox! But suppose he "13 n't" there or hasn't been "thir," then our th ipsody will coliir like an exploded soap bubble, and we shall become exceedingly distrustful in the future of all public rumor concerning the movements of our great men (or isn't His Excellency one of 'em? P. S. We understand from the most responsible sources that His Excellency hisn't been to Centreville at all, at all; but ihit he has been p i ving court to the wise men of the East, and that venter-lay, with m je-tie air. he wns gracing the magnificent p irlors. and xorridois of the palatial St. Nicholas,' In Xew York city, perhaps enjoying another four o'clock -feast with fforty covers" Centreville, like HooKtR, is ""no where." The Ooverndr U not enjoying "My Maryland," but is watching "my interen" with as mnch earnestness or greediness as a hungry dog for a bone. " ' A Ilevlew of President Lincoln' lleuponae to tbe Albany iilecting BT JllMJK 8. 8. NICHOLAS OF KENTICKT. It is a matter for no little pratulation to every lover of the Constitution, to every loyal p.ttriot, that President Lincoln h is thus pi iced in tangible form before the public what there is of reason, or its semblance, in wipport of his usurped power to abridge and punish freelotn of speech and of the pi ei. It is what he and hU advisers in and ot of the Cabinet have to present at the bir of reason. Let not the flimsy and wholly inadequate character of the reasoning induce an inference of any deficiency in him, or them The fault is not theirs, it is not from any lack of capacity in them to do justice to the ubject. for the argument is really as 2od, just ns plausible as any that his been or cjn be made on that side of the quslion- It is however o d-.dcursive and unmethodical as necessarily to impart much ot the same rtu ility to this hrief notice of it. The first noticeable thin? which it presents, is his feuing hold of ihe fact stated in one of he Albany resolutions that the great safeguards to free speech, free pres, ami personal liberty, were adopted into the Federal Constitution after the elose of the revolution, for the ike of making wh-it-he no doubt deems a idling retort. He a-k whether the demonstration would not have been better, if if could have been truly said that these "safeguards had been adopted during our revolution, instead of after its close. During the revolution, they could not have been so adopted into the Federal Constitution, for it then had no existence; but those safeguards were taken almost verbatim from the constitutions of several of the larger States which were m ide during the ai tual pendetic? of the revolutionary war and for tbe rule oi government iu an actually existing civil war. As an exposition of the views of the fruitier of the Constitution, as a revolutionary nnthority to prove thit those safeguards were f pecilly nieint for times of war at.d civil com motion, the precedents from the constitutions of thine Suites are fully as authoritative as if the Fc ier.il Constitution itself had been adopted tlurinsr the revolution. - To escape fruaa those safeguards, he asserts th.it the m lit try arrest, trial and banishment of Mr. Vail. indicium, wa$ not a holding him to an euer for a capitil or wlherwue, " infamous crime," nor were the proceedings agiiintt him a "criminal prosecution." The effrontery of mere denial cannot go beyond this. What classifica tlon (oust a crime belong to which is not iufamous, yet justitiell its puuinhmeiit by close imprisonment for Jiie, according to the sentence of the court ' martial, or tu banishment fur life, according to the illegal alteration of the PreIlenl? He does not tell us, and ingenuity will not waste its astuteness in any effort to ascertain. The hole biuilteu This attempt to justify the punishment is by affirming that the speeches of Mr. Valbindighatn were aiding and assisting the enemy, or in other words weie guai treasonable at least Utey were Iii perpetration of moral tre.-iMu. There hem n le,l punishment, as he wrong fully nffii nis, for the supposed offense, re makes the iibsence of all uch law the very foundation f hi claim to idtiict the punishment. The Constitution hiring careful! defined treason and - precluded that engine of tyranny constructive treason . and Congress aot having, ns he alleges.' provided any penalty for at h an offense, he un dert.ake ex pott facto, to create this 'new constructive treason and punish it by a penalty of his own enactment. Verily, Mr. Lincoln, this is sad work you are making with our Constitution, if you prove that it gives you stich latitudinons discretion to tyrannize over ihe liberties of your countrymen As to his deui;il to Mr. VallandiglumV persecution was ä "criminal prosecution witUio the meaning of tbe Constitution, it trust astound every man of sense. There is no denying tlwt ;t is a criminal prosecution of some sort, and of course- mwt fall within the broad comprehensive prohibition of all prosecutions except those legally mule with the aid of jury trial. The only exception is that carefully made by the Constitution iuelf, for the punishments, by military courts, of persons employed in the military service, the making of which exception conclusively proves the intention to exclude any Other. The theory of the Constitution is, that it is far fitter crime should go unpunished, than that its punish men t should be entrusted to anybody bot courts and juries. The recent glorious meetings of the people to protest against tbe punishment of Mrv Valtandisrhim show that such is the national. ndeTStandiiiB, with a fixed resolve not to be robbed of their liberties by the destruction of the Constitution. Mr Lin coin houtd take fceed how he disrej ards 'this tiatiotial sentiment, or he may have a civil war at the. North in addiLiou to I bat at the S uth, ' The Constitution says " excessive bail shall cot be required, nr cruel an I unu-u il punish meat fn flic led.' What' wy yoo to- this; awfe guard, Mr. Lincoln? You can not deny that the punishment you have inflicted here, for the exer eise of free speech, is unusual, nor can you proterlv dent that it is cruel also, or if Ton do, then it can only" toe by "affirming that the punishment is barely commensnrat- with the heinousness of the offense. But if such be the character of the offence, theo what become of jour other plea, that it is not an "infamous crime.' If this newly invented crime, this constructive tre-n. is so thinly divided from, actual treason as in uro eonscitntiae to require so dire a puni.-hment as lifelong imprisonment or banishment, it surely tnut bean "infamous crime." As nctul trensoji is by common consent the most inf fmous of all crimes, all iu proximate congeners, such as this, mart partake larcely ofthat infamy. - Your conti' trymen generally', ifiye yoil credit for doing all you could, by your usurped legislative and judicial authority, to brand Mr. Vallaudighain and hi children - with the hiTamy mf a convicted trai tor. Without reference to the personal hardship of such a sentence, with right minded men mi eh' damage to t-humcter is an inTa mining" punishment, and, such being, the punishment, the crime, if o punished, mu-t be " iiifam jus'' als). Ii was precise!? to revent such oppression in time of war or civil commotion, by party ro ijori tie fn Congress or by party chiefs in the Pres1 dential chair, that those safeguard were pi deed a the Constitution. - Mr. Lincoln adopts and bases his de'ense mainly upon the flimsey dogma thit the Comiltution was made for peace and not for war-
that new aud 'we:ik invention of tlie eueaiy"u civil libertr. He relies upon that clause of the Constitution giving Congress power to sus pend the privilege of habeas corpus "when in case, of rebellion or invasion the public safety may require it." This, be says, "attests the understanding of those who made the Confeti tution that ordinary courts of justice are inadequate to no cases of Vebllion-attest their purpose ihat'W'uch cases men may be held in custody whom the courts would discharge." This is. sound doctrine, but bence does he Receive tbe power to tx port fictt, or otherwise to crente n. Dew criminal otle:n-e mid puoUh at his ditcretiuii', with or without the itistrumenlairty ol court martial of his appointing? The two things are altogether different. The people are accustomed to seeing men arrested and held to bail -ujxw suspicion of mere coprovnble. crime, and it is but a small stretch of the same policy to nllow their arrest and temporary detention without privilege of trial in time of public danger. Public necessity may require, sound policy may allow thus much, but nothi ig more. ItisiiwiJe stretch beyond this lor tho military to undertake to ptiniah as welt, arrest.- This the Constitution nowhere allows, but eijiressiy forbids'. This clause referred to so far from sustaining the detestable dogma, tenda very strongly to its disproof, according to the sound rule of construction that exprtstio uuiut ttl txclusio mil rr int. The Constitution having given Congress discretion to suspend the .exercise in one particular instance, no other, durinz war or rebellion, of one of the functions of tbe civ'd authority, is demonstrative proof of two things, either of which utterly annihilates his whole argument. First, that such suspension must not be carried beyond that pirticnlar instance: second, that the Constitution was made for time of war or rebellion, as well as for time of peace, otherwise there would have been no need for the habeas corpus clause, for without it, according to the dogma, the Executive would have had unstinted power lxth to arrest and punish. The Constitution gives the Government power to declr.re war, and provides for its being Carried on it conteuiplsed rebellion and authorizes its suppression yet, according to the dogma, was not made for time of war or rebellion 1- .There are .other instances in which the Constitution trenches on the reserved rights of the citizen during war or rebe-.ion, and going- to show that its fraruers had the concurrence of those junctures full in view as likely to fait under its sway: 1st. No soldier shall, in time of peace, be quartered iu any house without the consent of the owner; nor in time of war but in a manner to be prescribed by law." Now, according to Mr. Lincoln's loic, this ctause, attesting as it does the understanding that the citizen was not entitled to the same perfect immunity from arbitrary requisitions during war as in time of peice, tliere was to be one mode of law for war and another for peace, and therefore the Government may during war make whatever arbitrary requisitions it pleases, that is, take a farmer's crops or horses without just compensation." 2d. ' No person shall be held to answer, kc , exccDt in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or Li the militia when in actual service, in time of war or public danger." Hereby necessary Implication the military are authorized to take cognizance of and punish ofTences by specified persons in time of war or public dancer, which, according to the'same -logic, 'authorizes them to pui.ish all persons. That is, a clause expressly introduced for the purpose of preventing the military from punishing anybody, except those encased in the military service, is construed to give power to punish everybody, whether so engaged or not. This effectually runs, the argument into absurdity, and there it will be left. Mr Lincoln says that Mr. Vallandigh am " was loboring with some effect to prevent the raising of troops; to encourage desertions from the nrm v; and to lesve the rebellion without an adequate force to suppiess it; and furthermore, that if this be not tiue, then he was improperly rreste l and puni.-hed Well, this is not true. So far from it, lie iu Congress did not vote against the men and money the Pre-ident asked, and said not one word in the speech for w hich he was punished, to prevent the raising of troops, or to encourage deser'ion from the army. If he had done both, or e ther, then he would have come within the act of Congress defining and punishing the offense, for which he could and certainly would have been adequately punished by the Courts; so that, according to Mrv Lincoln's own worst showing, there was not even the miserable pretext of public necessity for his punishment by the military. If, by a circuitous course of ratiocination, he means to contend that every speech made in opposition to the justice and policy of the war, in some slight decree tends to discourage enlistment anil encourage desertion, then to that extent there is a semblance ot truth in the affirmation, other wise tnere is none. Cut such slight prejudice to a vigorous prosecution of the war is but an unavoidable incident to the exercise ol free speech, and is altogether of too problematical nnd trivial a character to induce the nation to acquiesce in the suppression of that Inestimable right. . A privilege which Chatham, Burke, Fox and others illustrated in trains of ever living eloquence, wnilst freely and repeatedly denouncing the war against this country during oar revolution, as impolitic, unjust, cruel and unchristian. A privilege which the noblest patriots of England have freely exercised for the last hundred and fifty yearv, during almost every war in which England has been engaged. A privilege which the whole Federal party, iu and out of Congress.xercised with almost ferocious license during the whole of o'url-isl war with England. A privilege which Mr. Lincoln himself, in company with very many other Whigs, freely exercised during our war with Mexico. If President Polk had arrested him and other Whig leaders, and kept them im prisoned during the war, ill punishment for their u-e of the privilege, ho and ihev together wit'i the whole country wonVd have deemed it a gross, tyrannical violation of their rihti ns American freenif n. Mr. Lincoln visbe to make it a damaging point against Mr. Vallandigham because he has always been opposed to a war of invasion against the South for iw subjugation into submission. Whether viewed ns fault or-error or both, it is owtiy bo mear.s peculiar to him. but equally leloni;s to at least one distinguished ' Abolition lrteiit of Mr. Lincoln, wnl with w hich he himself and his whole Cabiuet were equally imbued so late as April, 1 61, when Mr. Reward wrote to our ministers ia Europe that tho Administration had definitely decided against the policv of such a war, and that there was no one in its favor Now, though it is undoubtedly permissible for Mr. Lincoln and his Cabinet to abjure and change so vital a policy, yet surely il is equally permisst ble for Mr. Vallandigham to adhere to an opinion which originally no identically coincided with theirs. Such coincidence should at least have he effect of exempting him from all blameworthiness in their estimation. Yet this is one of the' specified grounds of his punishment. It is so emphatically, bee.ni it piesetits the only sattflniial grounds of distinction between him and 'those distinguished Abolitionists who with impunity have becu allowed la say and speak more than ever he did in disparagement of the
capacity and trustworthiness of theAdministration more to bring it into odium and disrespect. Notwithstanding this Mr. Lincoln solemnly af firms lhat the punishment f Mr. .VaHaLidigharo was not at all " because he was damaging the political prospects f the Administration;" or in other wcrds, .Ut;t his putibmeiit was' not at all iiifluenctd by party Teeling." This affirmation was much needed, aud will afford matter of gratulation and consolation to all those who can give it full credence. It is tiot meant even to insinuate here that it is not entitled to the fullest ere deuce, but it is a fact of great importance that a large part of the nation possibly 'a decided majority of even our Union loving citizens, give It no credence whatever. Certain it is, that the great Democratic party believe, as they say. with unanimity, that the main reason for his punish ' meut was because of his being a Democrat. However calumnious sue!, an imputation may be, yet Mr. Lincoln, himI every member of his Cabinet, ought to have had the sagacity to foreknow that such would be the result ol his persecution, that satb result would be very sJa Digging to the Administration, vastly more so than the speeches of a Ii'iudred such men, . , Every principle of policy, every dictate of com ' mon sense prudence, forbids the persecution. Yet for some inadequate, nndivulged reason, the perecution has Ween indulged in the con sequences being, that, notwithstanding the many objections to his peculiar notions in politics, and epe-ia!ly his Tery foolish vagaries as to .the mode of stopping the war and obtaining peace, the Administration will make him Governor of Ohio by the vote of a very large ma-' jority of its enlightened, patriotic people. As much. as such a thing is to be,depiecated,yet it is useless for us to disguise from ourselves the fact that this Administration has equally in its power, by a similar act of folly, to make him our next President " that is. by his Incarceration after he is elected, to prevent his holding the office of Governor.' ' Whoever will recollect the iuunt-ise run which the cry of " Wilkes and liberty" had throughout all England, will see nothing overstrained or fanciful in this coi jecture. This e-My has already be n protracted to an unantiHpated and Improper length, bat having said what has been laid in disparagement of Mr. Vallandigham's views of natiom.1 policy, it will not do to close i( without according him some portion of his well earned meed of praise. In
tht estimation of a majority of .the heart-devoted lovcn of the Union, of whom ihe writer claims to be one, his loyally stands pure and unsoiled; he is not merely the equal in point of loyalty uf Mr. Lincoln, or any member of his Cabiuet, but iu all the higher altr.butes of an enlightened patriot, he U decidedly their superior. According to re membra nee,' he has never, in his many speeches, iven utterance to a single disloyal sentiment. 13ut, to his eternal honor, he has signalized his patriotism by a chiralric defense ol the Constitu tion against Congressional and Preside utia.1 usurpations. For long he stood manfully forth like another Bayard, although single handed, doing battle against a host in defense of civil liberty. There are few true patriots who, whilst they may forbear to envy, cannot foibear to admire the proud position lie has so well earned for u'mself in history. ..... In bis reference to the case of Gen. Jackson at Orleans, Mr. Lincoln says Congress thirly years after approved his martial law und proceeding under it. This is a mistake. The hue was re funded pot in consideration of such approval, but in despite d s ippmral and in consideration of his great public services, aud his alleged then need of money,. ( His friends in preparing the refunding bill, to. secure its. passage took special paius tiot to say one word in the preamble in his approval, or iu disapproval pf the Judge who inflicted the fine. Dut, on the contrary, the Judiciary Committees of both the House aud Senate made re ports in stron: commendation of the pretended power to declare martial law. . Mr. , Lincoln ought to have remembered to sUte, that in addition; to the i-ontemporaneous decisions to. tue same effect of the District Court of the United States end of the Appelate Court of Louisiana, the very court-martial that Jackson selected to try Lou.tllier, unanimous);, decided in the. same way, and that tbey had no jurisdiction to try a person not engaged in military service. . Mr. Lincoln says, "nor does any one question that the constitutional safeguards will after the rebellion stand the test" for much louger than they have yet done. This is a terrible mistake. The very reverse of the proposition is nearer the truth. There are very few men of historical in. formation and intelligence who do not so question, who do not. live in awful apprehension, of the hour w hen our enormous army shall be called uoon to disband. There is.no worse moral treason than ihe advice to let liie Constitution sleep during the r;ir, undtr the. chimerical belief that it will awake in full vigor after peace. Such a sleep is one that "will know no waking." All historv affords no example of the resurrection to new life of the constitution of a republic, after it has once been trampled out by military power. Th fathers warned us that military despotism was the probable if not neces-ary result of just suf-h a war sis is ' now jjou.g on. It seems from the action of the re'-enl j.ret mass meeting in Illinois that the pc p!e have taken the alarm and are urging a speedy peace from fear of and in avoidance ot this nd mher d infers to our liberties It is mu' h to be feared that the split In the North,. caused by Mr. Lincoln's improper measures, will precipitate us into nn improvident aud improper peace.

Special Correspondence of the Chiacgo Tim. . - Washington, June 1 G. Tho excitement here during Sunday, yesterday and to-day has been unequalled by anything during the war, except the alarm that was felt here ou the 2d of Sep ember last, when Pope, after his utter defeat, was fleeing for shelter to the Wabli iugton forts. auJ the terror thai pie vailed hereon the day alter the first battle of ßull Hun. On both of these occasions the capital was really in great peril, and it is the opinion of many men high in public station thai the danger which threatens Wa.thiugton now is quite as great as that which was imminent ou either of those oc casious. That the President fully shares these fears U erident from his proclamation, issued yester . day, calling for UH),l)t!() volunteers. That there is any necessity for such a call, is one of the most gtriking roofs of the utter incompetency of the Administration, and particularly of the War De part men t. Here is Pennsylvania not only threatened with invasion, but nttuilly iuvaded, aud no preparation made whatever to guard against cr repel such invasion! This invasion opens the way fcr an attack on Washington from the North, and no adequate prepar itioos hare been made to gu ird ntj.tinsT such an attack. Such are the results of Mr Lincttin's strategy; for it is he alone, or, at moM, l.eai-i Stiuton, wi ohave been managing the war lor ihe lat seven months. ' The invasion of Peunsjlvanis, which is now taking, place, is no utirprise to the country. Gen. Lee has leu miking his p:c;rations for it openly, iu ihe face of div, I'.r the - last four weeks. His indention to doso h is been trumpeted iu the tic w papers lor ihiee weeks at least.. The Administration kuew it certainly would take place, an I, if they hid any common sagacity, they xtii;lit hue knuwii tii.il it would have taken place al the period most I avontble to the Confederates .-.nl mo.st unfavorable to us; thit is to say, when a Jong spell of dry weather h id dried up the streams and rivers so lh it they could be most easily forded, and when our armies had become depleted as much as they could be by the departure of nil the. old regiments ol vterau traorM. Th:it period has now arrived. . Knowing this, they knew also that a vast number of additional troojw would be required to repel the invasion. They have now called for-those troops. But they hare waited until Pennsylvania is itctually invaded before they hare called for them! Why wns not ihe call for trooi made three weeks ago, so that the men could be raised, nnd at least partially drilled, before they were brought face to face with the foe? It is idle to think they can be raised now and organized so as to be of any service; for, before this can be done, the objects of the invasion will have been accomplished. AI ready the Confederate forces have captured Wiu ehester and Mirtinsbtirg, hive crossed the Potomac, occupied Hagerstown, nnd have advanced to Chi mhersburg. which is now in .their posses sion Ch.tmbersburgh, which was tobe the headquartet s of Gen. C'-ti'-h! ' The pe-p!e of Pennsylvania must be complete ' ly bewildered by ihe numerous calls made upon them for military service. Two weeks ago the machinery of the conscription act began to be put iu operation in .hat State. It was working along a harmoniously there ng in any of the other States, only' interrupted here and there by the shooting of a' Provost Marshal, or by the burning of u b .i n or house of nn enrolling officer. A week ago, however; the people of thai State were amazed to find that Gen. Couch and Gov. Curtiu h:id ordered all the men in the State between' the ages of eighteen and sixty to organize for the protection of the state And now, to cap the climax, the President's proclamation of vester-lav cal's npn them to raise immediately, 50.0.H,v'i!ufeer "What are they to do? Which call are ihev to attend first? If they 'suffer themselves t. be ron-ciipted, they surely will thing that thai ou-ht 'to s-ii-ly " the Govern meii? " Mf t!.ey turn nut en manse tinder Gener al Couch's cail. ir lurnisir 51,l)( volunteers for the President," thev will ask, "Why conscript us?" . Cut suppose the 100,'KIO volunteers raised, in accordance with the terms of the President's pro clamation. (an impossible supposition, I admit) does auy sane man ex;cci or believe that they can cope for a moment with the veterans of Stonewall Jackson's corps, or with those of Longstreet and Hill? The idea is absurd. The whole thiag shows how short sighted Mr. Lincoln is. . Nothing is easier than to keep the ranks of an army always full. Uad ihe proper plan been pur-ued by Mr Lincoln, we would never have heard ol oid regimen's going horns. Kept constantly full by he infusion of fie-h. blood and fresh recruits, the battle tot ii fia of ev ery one of the old leginieuts would now le waving over as large and effective ati army as we ever had, and theie would be no. necessity for ever calling for new regiments, or even for the conscription. You will ask, why has !o.ker, with "ihe finest army on tbe planet," not prevented this inva sion of Pennsjlrani by Gen. Lee? He was stationed on tbe lUppahaunock to fihl Gen. Lee's army; why has be nöt done il The answer has been furnished by the Administration newspapers dnrinjr eTery day for week past: -They have boasted that the receut cavalry fight on the Rappahannock did break up Lee's design of invasion of the Norlli. - Ytm co now how much truth there was in that assertion. Yott see that the . facts confirm what I said about that cavalry fight ir; my last tetter. The true answer to the question is. Hooker, If he had been a good General, would have prevented this iuvukiou;. for be had ample means to do so. Kot being a good General, he has not. " The fact is. Hooker has been out generaled by Lee, in this affair, a great deal worse than be was at Cliancellorville. During the last three
weeks .Lee has ..been receiving ( reinforcements. All of his troops near Suffolk and in North Carolina had joined him by about the 6th hist By that time nl.so, enough individual recruits bad been sent lo him to fill all his regiments up to their original strength. He had reorganized Lis army by giving to- Gen Ewell the command of Stonewall Jackson's old corps. Um force now consists of the three corps of Generals Longstreet, Hill and Ewell, averaging 30,000 men each, and Stewart's 10,000 cayalryiu all fully 100,000 men. Ea ell's corps consists of tbe divinions cf Gen. Trimble (Stonewall Jackson's old division) and Gen. Hill, each ä.OUO strong; Elzey's division i'.ate Ewell'-) 8.000 strong; Ashby's cavalry, i,X)0 streng, and 50 pieces of artillery. It is Uu of the division of Ewell's corps that have made lli'w invasion of Pennsylvania. They inarched fiom Culpepper to Strasburg; itt.ickcd and defeated Gen. Milroy at Winchester 0 the H'.h in.st .tdoiming his entrenchments, which were very stnmg; marched to Martinsbnrg. defeated Gen. Tyler there; then crossed the Potomac al Wiiliamsport, passed through HagerstoJrn , and advanced .to. .ChaBibersburjr, where thv are iiow. The remnants of Milroy and Ty lei's Tunes (and tley were. badly cut up) retreated to Harper's Ferry, ahwe Gen. Tyler is
now iu command. It is believed today that Harper's Ferry is invested by the enemy.. If.so, the place, wiil be evacuated by our forces, but they w ill probably try to hold Majyland Hlghts. The disgraceful defeats at Winchester and Martinshure iniuht easilv have been prevented, if a soldier had been in command of the MtdJle.Departmetit instead of such, a radical politician as Scheuck. The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, of course, is again in full possession of the enemy. owing entirely to his tnismaiiügement, . t The main body of Gen. Lee ariu v, fully 70,OOtt strong, has advanced torn Culpepper to Wnrrenton. and .from theie to Thoroughfare Gap.. Il is feared that it will advance directly on this city, by . way ol Ceutreville and .Fairfax. But it U much more likely that Gen. Lee will move rapidly direct I v north on the western slooe ot Hie Dull Kuu and Kittocktin Mountains, to he (lace where he crossed the Potomac river last September, near Point of Hock t. and advance, thence to Frederick . City, and from thence to Hageisten and Chamtiersburg. Tliere i no Gen McClellan to follow him up this time. Mr. Lincoln will proably pay. dearly for retai ing Hooker in command of the only army that can be relied on to figh; Gen. Lee. Hooker, be wildered by the Nipoleonic celerity of General Lee's movements, has been stupidiv drawing in his columns toward this city to defend it, as he thinks. . lie has not cot even military acacitv enough to see that the only way Washington can be defended is by defeating the army U that marching against it. ,X. Democratic fleeting; t W llllanisport. On last Saturday the Democracy of Warren county held a meeting at Wiiliamsport, which was large and enthusiastic, aud at which resolutions were passed -denouncing in the strongest terms tha action of all who were engaged in the recent outrages committed upon the citizens of that town aud county, bpeeches were made by several gentlemen among whom were Messrs. Ciavpool and Davidson of this place. The meeting was also addressed by the Hon. Ben. Gregory and Daniel Mace, iu reference to the conduct of those engaged in the riot ot the 2J and 3d of June. These gentlemen be h took strong grounds against such violation of lav, and counseled obe dience to the law in all cases.declaring themselves of thebelieftli.it the Democratic party vm ns loyal as any party in the Itortb, and that the practise of heaping upon it such epithets as ha heretofore been indulged in by the Republican party and press, was all wrong and should be discontinued. Major Mace said that his opinion was that Lincoln & Co. had better turn their undivided attention to the rebellion down South nd let Demo crats and Democratic newspapers alone; and that in all the loyul Slates the civil law must have the supremacy over the military. We are glad that our Republican friends are coming to their senses, and are recovering from the delusion which but a few days ago told them to see iu every Dem ocrat a rebel and a traitor. The fact is that the people were beginning to move in this matter, and Republicans were beginning to find out that Democrats loved their homes and families and held them as sacred as did the Republicans; in short, they began to see that this country did not yet belong to them, and that other men had rights here as wei as they, and that they were determined to m tinuiu those rights. The Dem ocratic patty ha always been a law aud order ptrty, and nothing short of absolute necessity will ever induce them to t.-ike the law into their own hands. Whit Repuh'icans elsewhere . will think of the action of the party in Warren countr, we can not say, but we are assured by Mr. Gregory that his course is in eutire conformity to the views ami wUhes of Governor Morton; and this we shall say för the Republicans of that county, that from whatever motive they may have acted, they have only done what justice demanded and whit tiiey should hmg since hare done. We aregtad that the recent difficulties in Warrca have been amicably adjusted, and that the Republican party of that county have covensi ted to obey the law and act justly toward their neighbors. If they would do this everywhere, we should soon enjoy peace and quiet in every community in the North, Covington Friend.

Those belonging about H.igcrstown were being returned to their misters, and those from Virginia were sent back under f;uar.l. Horses and other property taken from citizens of Maryland lme been returned to them, and every effort has been made to make their etealin? as little offensive as possible to "My Maryland."
