That has already been done, and in his judgment well done, by the Com manding General ot this Department. He ! has no partisan feelings or interests he intends to advance, but desires (o confer freely and fully with the prominent inon of nil political partif s, and invokes their hearty cooperation in all inenpures calculated to restore harmony and good feeling in the State. Uc neither claims any right to interfere with civil matters in the S'ate, nor has any desire to do so. II. The Commanding General is charged with tho duty of carrying into effect the provisions of General Order No. 3i, recently issued by Major General Burm-ide. He purposes doing so. Unmistakable evidence has reached him that the provisions of this older have been, and are being, violated in various instances by well meaning men, who are led astray by newspapers and public speakers. These latter will therefore be held to the most rigid accountability. Thero is no use in trying to dry the stream while its fountains are allowed to flow. All newspapers or public speakers that connsel or encourage resistance to the Conscription act, or any other law of Congress paetcd a a tear measure, or that endeavor to bring the tear policy of the-Government in to disrepute, will be considered as having violated the order above alluded to and treat ed accordingly. The country will have to be saved or Tost during the time that this Administration remains in power, and therefore he wlo is fiictioualy ud actively oppo sed to tho war policy of the Administration is as much opposed to his Government. III. The Commanding General indulges the hope that all citizens of the Stato will see the propriety and necessity of the observance, of this Order, and as they regard the ia'crests and welfare of the State and Nation, give him no occasion to take action 3D account of its violation. vi ' By command of - 2 i iv Brig.

On Saturday last, the copperheads of the town of Abington nl vicinity, in tLia county, after deliberately concluding that they, likeirnto their beloved 'Southern brethren,

1 . T:hi., determined to arm - v. - O . .. . j i themselves vun rules, soot-guns, sua revolvers, and, with their cherished butternutbreastpins sticking in their bosoms, to show their rebel sympathies, (just as though their I ,.

This was the foundation for the raid. .Having arrived at the county seat, they icame iolo town wiUl drum and fife, their 'persons bedecked with butternuts, the col . . , tre ln tll6ir faces) heightened with bald face whisky, and shouting for Jeff.

Just 'about this time, a teleirrahic dispatch was 1 . . .. c. , .., , sent to our city tor assistance, wben nearly I i,nrKirej citizens, arming themselves wiih titles, shotguns, muskets, tfcc , weut ! over to the seat of war. On arriving at the Center nle Depot, the little army from Rich mend formed in line of battle and charged the butternut invaders on the double-quick. They did not wait for the shock hadn't time to consult upon the order of their going, but went at once skedaddled. An j oye-wi'.ness told us that he never before 1 witnessed what is called "tall running." lhe main body of tbe enemy escaped; but five of the copperheads were overtaken, captured, and deposited in jail. The depu ty U. . Marshall, Park Comn, with dep'ty Sheriff Page, and a posse of about fifty men, j went in pursuit. On approaching tbe town of Abington, it was found that armed copperhead pickets were posted on its outskirts, who attempted to run, but tbe sight of a few cocked shooting-irons pointed towards them and the word ' halt!" being whispered in their ears, they halted and five were made prisoners. Marching into Abington, some sixteen or eighteen more prisoners were taken, most of whom were armed with ritles, shot-guns aud 'Benton' revolvers all of whom proved to have been in the Centerville raid. Joshua Dye, a leader among the copperheadsjof Abington, two or three of his sous, Robert and Sampson Stephens, John M. Snyder, and Mr. Madden, are the only names of the prisoners we now recollect. They were ail marched to Centerville and placed in jail. Twentyseven prisoners were in the lock-up at one lime--all were citizens of Abington and vicinity, with the exception of four or five. Fearing an attempt would be made to release the prisoners, the jail and all the approaches to Centerville were guarded, on Saturday night, Sunday and Sunday night. On Sunday afternoon, an extra train took reinforcements over to the seat of war, and quite a number of armed citizens went there in their carriages and buggies. No further disturbance occurred, however, and the cheering news was brought to Richmond 011 Sunday night at 12 o'clock : All is quiet om Poland's Fork of Whitewater! On Monday morning, nineteen of the prisoners wereturred over to Gen. llascall, at Indianapolis, and eight, in consideration of col being armed and of their youth, were released. On investigation by Gen. llascall, twelve more were released, and seven of the old copperheads, who had been learning the young ones to bite, amongst whom was old man Dye,, were retained for pnnexcitement that rased in our countv. over nouiR-w us jmei tuumg. xce casualties are: a broken shot-gun over a brnised copperAeail, and twenty-seven Cont'd cepperhead prisoners, including three Dyes, who are all alive and havo yet time to repent and turn from their evil ways, remembering that " hilit the la Hp Mill eat ta bara. The Tileel aiaoera ma return!' We have known ever since we first landed in Old Wayne, thi.t the Abington hills and vales were rich, and very productive ; but never dreamed of sueh mineral wealth as the above raid was the means of developing thereabouts. Shot-guns, rifles, revolvers, powder flasks and bottles filled with powder, ballets, buck-shot and bara of lead, were found in full grotelh in the fence corners powerful soil that! Among the numerous- incidents, always happening in 'times that try men's souls." we were told tiro that are worth repeating: A young . copperhead, on being arrested, coniaieneed blubbering, "Oo ughl if I'd a minded my mammy, and stayed at home and plowtd, I wouldn't a got in this darn'd scrape ! " , His mother is a sensible woman, we'll warrant. , ... Tbe other incident occurred in one of Lhe att.nJin Whitewater CoUere. ban- . . . . . penicg m the store, a female copper&ead entered who conspicuous'? sported the traitoremblem, a butternut-breastpin in her bosom. As soon as Miss G. observed it, she asked her to remove the offensive thing, ( and, on her refjal, they both , 'went in ,00 their muscle one to obtain snd the other to re tain possession of it ; In the scuffle the! copperneaa got hold of Miss proves , arm came out of the battle victorious, and tri-t umpnantly bore off the, breastpin. , Shei stepped into the office 'of a physician, and

got him to dress they' wound, remarfkinsrlhat

she had been Utteu by a she copperhead.'

On Saturday and Sunday the great battle raged. Stonewall Jackson by a quick movement aimed to turn our flint, where Howard s Corps, formerly Sigel's, was stationed. Sh-imeful to sny, that Corps threw down their arms and disgracefully ran, excepting two Brigades, Calbushbeck's and McLean's. The reverse was however more than offsetted by a part of Hooker's old 2d Division, now belonging to the 20th corps. The day was gaineJ, and our troops slept on the field, after a most sanguinary night battle, in which the enemy were severly repulsed. On Sunday the fight commencing at 5:30 A- M., and continued to 8:40 when the rebels broke and ran. We have no reports of casualties. On Monday, the fight was still progressing. Oouimuocation with Richmond was totally cut off, and Gen. Hooker declared that Leo's Army belonged legitimately to the Army of the Potomac. Over 3.000 prisoners were taken; among them, Major-General Evens of S. Carolina, and Gen. Fitzhugh Lee, Chief of Cavalry. Gen. A. P. Hill reported killed. LATER- Hooker Still Victorious. Stoneman's expedition was entirely 6uc cessful his cavalry penetrated within five miles of Richmond, destroying britktes. railroad cars, locomotives, telegraphs, etc.. cutting off all communication with Lee, ex ceDt bv horse express. A portion of his forces had rejoined Gen. Hooker. Sedgwick, instead of recrossing tbe Rappahannock as was reported, had pierced the rebel lines and also joined Hooker. On Monday and Tuesday, the rebels made several desperate dashes against the Union columns, but were repulsed in every instance with great slaughter. In some of the later charges tbe rebels were unable to stand over fifteen minutes. The rebel Gen Paxton was killed, and Jackson, Heth and A. P. Hill badly wounded. Hooker's position was impregnable; and with the reinforcements from Hentzelmen's corps, the results cannot be otherwise than glorious to the Union cause. The loss of the rebels in prisoners, is from 10,000 to 12,000. The rebels claim that they, too, have taken 5,000 prisoners. gear The New Orleans Era says that duing General Bank's successful expedition from Burwick's Bay towards Opelousas, besides the prisoners taken and rebel force dispersed, the rebels themselves surrendered the steamer Cornie, and bnrned tbe News Boy, the Gossamer, the Era No. 2, tbe gunboat Diana, tbe Louisa," the Derby, the Uncle Tommy, the Blue Hammock, and the gunboat Hart, and the Cricket was sunk in the Techo river. The Hart was a large, heavily armed, and iron covered gunboat. On these was destroyed a large amount of provisions, including 20,000 pounds of bacon, and 1,0"0 cases of ammunition. 165 The tory Vallandigham was arrested on Tuesday morning last, by an order from Gen. Bnrnsides. and conveyed to Cincinnati and confined in a 'bnstile. .His copperhead friends raised a mob and completely destroyed the Dayton Journal office -set it on fire and destroyed the building, together with the buildings adjoining. The loss of property is estimated at 839,000. Martial law has been declared in Montgomery county the Dayton Empire suppressed, and its editor taken to jail, and about thirty of the ring-leaders of the mob arrested. The buildings destroyed were the entire wooden row from the Philips House south to the alley. ' , . . ' Union Demonstration at Hillsboro. Hills boko, Ihd., Afbil 29.

Camp or the 19th Ibdiana, 1 Near Bxllk Plaih, Va... April 20. J Editors Palladium : In reading your paper, which finds its way to us every week, we all can see letters from many of the Indiana regiments, but not one word about the 19ih. One who did not know would no doubt think there was none ; but let me say that there is one bearing that number away down in Dixie, on the Poto-: mac river. Although we are still now, we are looking for the order forward ; in fact, we are wailing now with eight days rations of hard tack, and coffee, sugar and salt.three three days of meat. We are -as we ever have been ready, at the word to go. And should we move forward, be assured by the past, that we will in future hold fast . to the cause we have espoused, although our rarAs have been thinned, we will fight.! We have the greatest confidence in our leaders, from General Hooker, down to our Brigadier General, Sol Meredeth ; our old Colonel and our present Colonel we love, and hate the greatest confidence in bim will follow him to the last. Perhaps it would be well to mention our regimental officers : Our present Colonel was formeily Captain of company K, Williams; our Lieulenannt-Colonel, Captain Dudley; formerly of company B, Major, Captain Linley, company F. General Hooker has done one thing that after years he will be blessed for. He has forbidden the dealing or selling of whisky within the lines of the army. It is a rare chance yon see any one how reeling around under the heavy loads of the essence of corn. Although some curse bim now, io after years tbey will praise and thank him. Our Provost Marshal, General Patrick, uses bis energies in . forcing the order in selling liquors to the soldiers : if a Sutler, his- goods are all confiscated, be is fined and put out of the army. The informant gets a share of the goods. Two citizens were tried here for selling whisky to the soldiers; tbey were fined, their property confiscated, their heads shaved, and then put to hard labor for thirty jdsys. . c ,. Tbe 7th Indiana is close to as now ; their boys and ours have many a game at baste ball that has been our chief amusement, and. in fact, all our time has been spent at it we do not drill any, or but very little. on the account of there not being places sufficient for drilL This is a very broken snd hilly place here between tbe Rappahannock and the Potomac We fear to see the drafted or conscript men come here, for we know that we will have to drill. If your readers do not bear from us often now while we are in camp, let them be sure that they will when we get into battle ; the old 19th has and ever will be there when the fight comes off. .

Th offenses which most J require the attention of Grand ' t A . . m . : :i. and violations ot the laws passed for the protection and security of the mails. A state of affairs exists at this time which has given much prominence to offenses which in ordinary times are of rare occurrence. During the past two years a formidable insurrection against the "Government bes been prosecuted by the inhabitants of several of the States of the Confederacy. To aid in suppressing this insurrection it has been found necessary by Coneress to pass laws to counteract and punish various acts by which a portion of the citizens of tne States not involved in Ine insurrection sees to emoarrass the Government and give encourage ment to those who are engaged in armed rebellion. 1 The cause of the rebellion may be mate rially aided by acts which do not amount to J . . . -. L 1 - " 1 I tbe crime oi treason, as it nas neen juo.ici.uly defined, but which in their effects give important aid and comfort to the enemies of the Government. The act of Congress of Julv 31st, 1861, was framed to meet sach cases. This act makes it a highly criminal offense for two or more persons to conspire together! to oppose by force the authority of the ijrovernraent of the United States, or by force to prevent, hinder or delay the execution of. anv law of the United Mates. I Tbe resistance to the authority ofthe "United States which has been most frequent ly manifested in this State, has been directed to the efforts of the Government to increase the strength and efficiency of the army by drafting men for military service, snd by tbe arrest of deserters. . ," ' The Federal Constitution,' and the laws of Congress passed in conformity to it, are the supreme laws of the country. They impose upon lhe citizens an obligation superior to that of which they owe to the Constitution and laws of the State in which Ihey reside; and if it should happen that the laws of the United States and those of a State are in conflict, it is the duty of the citizen to yield obedience to the superior suthority of the Federal Constitution, ; - To repel invasion and t suppress insurrection the Government of the United States is invested with authority to require tbe services of every citizen able to perform military duty. It is only through the military power of the Government that the formidable insurrection which now threatens its destruction can be suppressed. Every act which tends to weaken the military power of the Government " indirectly aids the rebellion. . To preserve the efficiency of the army, it is essential that those who have entered into the military service should faithfully perform their engagements. Desertion is one of the highest crimes that a soldier can commit. It may be punishable by death. H If the Government cannot avail itself of the service of those who have been regularly enrolled in the military service, its efforts to suppress the rebellion must necessarily fail. The citizens of the loyal States cannot injure the national cause in any way more effectually than by encouraging desertion and preventing the arrest of deserters. Tbe necessity of preserving the integrity of the army by providing suitable penalties against those who should aid or encourage desertions was recognised by Congress during the war of 1812 with Great Britain. The act of January II, 1812,snd which is still is force, subjects to fine and imprisonmeat every person not connected with the army who shall procure or entice a - soldier to desert, or shall purchase from soldier his arms or uniform doathiog. ' Tbe act of March 3d, 1863, has extended the penalties to all persons who shall harbor or give employment to deserter,' knowing bim to be sach. It will be your duty to present by indictment all persons within this district who shall be proved to have been guilty of either of these offense. - - " '-- - la the progress of investigations which have been made in this Court, it has bees proved that there exists is different parts of this State secret organizations of political character, tbe members of whioh pledge themselves by volantary oath to' Bawtual protection and assistance, aad to sweresy in regard to their-transaetions. As it is probable that your attention may be e ailed t? this ssbyeot, it is proper that -1 should explain to you the law beajring upow organ, ixations of this character.

If there are citizens of tbe State who sympathise with rebels in arms against tha Government, however unpatriotic they rh'a be, the law provides no punishment for their dUloyal sentiment. - But if they seek to give effect to such sentiments bj combinations and conspiracies to resist the laws and oppose the authority of the Government they commit tbe overt acta which make them criminals and subjeet thesa to punishment.
