Secretary Cliase Triumphant. So far, the Financial Scheme, of the Secretary of the Treasury is a success. " The credit of the Government is to-day tatter than ever before.

Eds. -Palladium: The flood krates of heaven seem to have again been raised, rain and hail is pouring down in torrents, and another deluge seeeas inevitable.' Yet it is warm and we suffer not from cold. It is spring with oa, peach trees ; were in all bloom three weeks, ago. , The forests are robed in beautiful giean, and wild flowers of every hue and description adorn the long, gentle,; slopes of the Southern fields; the feathered songsters, the beautiful French mocking bird, the most numerous, are sweetly caroling . among the flowers mingling their soft music with the shrill blast of the war trunapeV ' -. - Since writing yoa from Young's Point, the camp of the 13th army corps has been moved ap the river twelve miles to a point known as River View. Two large plantations here front the river, and are owned by Mr. Burns and Means, respectively; but being of secesh proclivities fled on the ap proacb of our army, leaving almost every :l tnmg ' in tneir nignt, ana pernaps a once happy home, , surrounded by all the com-1 forts man would wish or heart desire; but alas I the things that once helped to adorn those beautiful garden homes of the South are fast being shorn from them; the inde hand of the soldier is everywhere to be seen, and years of toil and labor cannot again replace what an invading army bas torn from them. : . . ;. L , Army correspondents and letters from soldiers have become so numerous in all the j Northern journals, that I expect the good people of the Quaker City and your readers generally, look upon any article beaded from the regiment with holy horror, unless there might chance to be something new, nd of wnich, I am sorry to say. I have t . e r ' notLinS; But of one thing I am sore, you cannot j00k upon such things halfsoindig nant nor swear half so hard as do the brave B0ldiers of this army when they see in the ii . r .v v- j iloyal papers of the Aorth no other kind J- . , , r6 DOW rermltted to come or be sold witlun 'our lines what those infernal traitors and 'cowards of the " Butternut-breastpin " and JtfF stvle . t;n(T to (lf: wft anv vnttAr that such scoundrels are permitted to live among yoa and breathe the same air as do the loyal men and womenGod bless the women, they are true to their country's cause io this, her hour of peril, of your " - j - -a - ' 4 community There must bo a kind of an jobnoxious odor switched off their clawhammer coat tails as they slink in and out of their deiis of treason, that would be very offensive to the smell of a true Union man. Their true worth is appreciated by our brave boys that bave gone forth to do battle, and if need be, give their lives a willing sacrifice for our country's cause, snd if they doubt this fact let any or all of them dare enter the camp of any Indiana regiment, and the cypress trees of Louibiana would suddenly bear a large crop of butternuts. . Revenge is sweet and will come : at la6f, and when least expected, and our soldiers are crying aloud for justice to be dealt out without stint to those filthy cowards who are firing in our rear. Hope ever beams upon the brow of a brave mm when amid the dangers of a battlefield, when death is seen npon every side, and there Is seen a smile of confidence upon each feature. But a look, aueh as the mariner at sea might be supposed to wear when the last hope has sunk within him and the brave ship is going down, is seen plainly upon every feature, when , he feels and knows there is treason at borne where he expected to receive support; but I do hope there are ' tome men yet ' left at home who will protect our homes and firesides and the dear ones we have left in their care. The dangers of the battlefield and camp fevers, that are far more to be dreaded than bullets, we fearnrt; 'tis the thought of those tdear onet far away, perhaps without a borne ,hera ig A ork -oin(r Tonp i(,gt the soldiers wives, mothers and Bisters are being cared for (I hope every one.) Such deeds inspire confidence in eur men, and nerves each patriot to more noble deeds and he feels that he U an army - within himself. If the work was general throughout the North, oar gallant men , would march victorious through every State ia the South, and soon, the- Goddess of liberty would again tpread her bright mantle of liberty and peace upon oar once happy country. And let me hare say a word for the benefit of i the K. G. CVoi yoar city end District, for we have evident ot their being a few sucWthat I do not speak alone for the loyalty of the 69th.' I have mingled constantly with regiments from different States, and find them all the same, -and come weal or woe. thev will ever be found tree to theirs country's flag-. Yoar miserable schemes to get our men to desert will, in almost every instance prove fraUless. You are already exposed ; we know yoa and bide oar time, t and the cheapest mode of transportation for every cowardly dog of yoa to that country wherein U situated the homestead, of your grand aire the irir-tkat yoa may eajey, unmoleated, the fruits of yoer labor free from the societv of the noWe and ' honest n nnr land, is a matter un ir the boys of the Wth. aforesaid copperheads feel themselves agrieved by wbat l say 01 mem, minu uwu i Messrs.

69th, the health and general good condition ' . - ? ... a I of its members is again quite good eltho' its thin ranks now show that grinrvdeith has not dealt sparingly with them in times gone by. Yet there is not a regiment in the two army corps, composing the army bow before Vicksburg. that stands higher in the estimation of the commanding Generals for iis ' efficiency in drill, good discipline and bravery, than does the 69th. In evidence of which w,e have tbe following from Brig. Gen. Osterhaus, commanding division. Oa the evening of the 20th inat the General visited our dress parade. After witnessing the parade he addressed the officers thus : .. 44 Orncx&s : lam no flatterer, and I assure you that when I tell yoa that your parade this evening is the best one I have ever witnessed in this army ; I am in profound earnest. It affords me great pleasure to observe the prompt and efficient discipline displayed, with the proficiency of your regiment in the tactics is truly admirable, J hope to have the pleasure of leading yoa to battle, knowing that you will do your whole duty. I owe much of whatever military success I have had to Indiana troops. At the bloody battle of Pea Ridge I had the U i 1 -J t I" ' 1 l A .Itrue So I have found you. Accept my best wishes for your future success." And again, on the following evening, we were honored by a visit from Major General McClernand and Staff. The parade being formed, the routine of the manual of arms being over, the clarion order of the Adjutant is heard giving the order " Parades dismissed." The officers assemble in the center and front, the Colonel introduces the General to the officers and men, and while seated upon his fine charger in front of the regiment, bis staff on the left and body guard (a fine company of cavalry,) on his

I have not ritnesfed a better dress parade than ,he ! war one you have just concluded. In yoar fine personal appearance and soldierly bearing I see evidences that yoa are indeed animated by the true soldier spirit, and that yoar officers are tine disciplinarians. I need not remind the 69th Indiana that they are enirazed in the performance of the noblest wnrlr that ever unim.tt thft t.A.,1 r norr. I ed the arm of the patriot or the philanlropist. That it is a work of liberty, of christianiiy and civilisation. Having already distinguished yourselves on the field of battle, you are destined to achieve still greater fame in the future. I thank your Colonel, your officers and soldiers for this display of ' your efficiency and discipline which so much inspires me with confidence.' . . . Such honors cannot fail to have its influence upon both officers and soldiers.'- The men ewe not a little of their well-merited glory to Col. Bennett and Lieutl-Col. Perry. The latter for his devoted attention and unlimited pains with the regiment as Adjutant has, throngh the recommendation of Colonel Bennett, been appointed Lieutenant-Colonel of iho 69th Indiana by the Governor of our State. Capt. John H. Fin ley has received his appointment as Major. He has ever worked hard and faithfully as Captain of Co.

eiNDT M Dome. A. wwwu iuuvu (eviicr iu enemy a Northern disnmoaist than a bout hern rebel. As' far as I can krmrn, these are the sentiments eatexlained by all soldiers. If Yallandigham, Horace Greely and others, were to come inside of oar lines, and it were to become known to oar soldiers, they would be treated to a piece of hemp and huog to a tree, and sent to the devil where they both ttloog,"n Our friend M. thinks that Mr. Gree ly, when he advocates an "armistice and yeace-apon-any-terms," bas placed him se!f in the same boat with the traitor Yal., and the eld ."gentleman ia black has a clear and undisputed title to both. 0O We find a letter from Capt Jos. S. Slid ham, of the 57th Ind. VoU in tbe last Wayne Co. Chronicle, from which we take the follow ing extract. The advice of the Captain is timely and, as everybody knows it comes from, a! true man, it will be heeded hereabouts; . j . 1 hear that the people of Centervile and ! vicinity are going to give a supper this week ' for the benefit of the soldiers, &c. I have also gotten the idea that the design is to in- j vest the proceeds thereof in canned fruits, I hams, eggs, butter, k c, and send it to their ' relatives and friends in the service. Wheiher such is the case or not, their kindness is appreciated by the soldiers, and all such acts sre treasured up in the naiads of the men j in this department. It it is designed to j make such disposition of the proceeds, permit me to make a suggestion or two; and instead of investing in sweetmeats, &c, for '; those in the field, invest them in Hoar, meat and clothing, and give it to tbt lamilies of soldiers, and such as are in need at home, ' and the kindness will be as highly appreciated by those in the field as though they were j themselves the recipients of your bounties. ' In sending such things here there are many chances to loose all that is given, aa there are a set of fellows who hang around hospitals, convalescent camps.

But enough.

The case of Gen. Pillow, so recently made prominent by himself, illustrates the teste that may impend over Gea. Toombe. , , Pillow was a maa of immense fortune.' Hia elavea were numbered by huadreda, aad hia property by hundreds of thousands. How he acquired so. much, seeing that he waa "deprived of his rigbta," aad that the South waa constantly plundered and "kept poor by the North," it is not for as to explain; farther than to say it m the concurrent tee- , timony in Tennessee that he made bis fortune fairly, by rare judgment - io busiaeee . and an economical management of his estate.' But Pillow was not satisfied. ' Tbe Union , "oppressed him.", and he seceded. Bis great estate waa not safe enough in time of peace, and he went to -wax to make it safer. The result, he tells himself in a dismal speech recently delivered at Atlanta, Ge The Confederate Government, aa a preeautionary measure, bnxn v WW.
