' The cheering repotts of the fall of tip rebel capital, on last Fa.tuiday night and Sunday, and the capture cf Jeff Davis and his cabinet, proved tola false. Gen. Hook-f er has not sgain moved across the Ilappa bannock. It is repotted that Lee Las fallen back on Richmond, with a portion of his army for its defeiue, ftaiing a combined attack by Hooker and Dix, the latter of whom is at the White House. We hope to be able to announce i.ext week that not only Richmond, but Yickaburg, is in - possession of the Union troops. The Port Royal troops are fcriifjiog helow Charleston on the islands, further than this, all is quiet on the coast. Gen. Grant has captured Giand Gulf and Port Gibson, cut the Jackson railroad at Clinton and routed the rebel forces there. Stonewall Jackson's death ia confirmed. He was wounded at Chancellorvillo battle in the hand his arm was nmpututed, and he died shortly after the operation. Gen. Van Dorn ia also dead, having been shot by a rebel surgeon for seducing Lis wife. An important cavalry expedition was recently fitted out by Gen. Itosecrans, and placed under command of Col. Straight, of the 61st Indiana, to act in conjunction wi b a similar exf edition, under General Dodge, from Corinth, Miss. Col. Straight encountered the enemy at fcveral points, compelling him lo gic way, and finally succeeded in reacniug itoin', nearly in ttie centre oil the State of Georgia, deMioying railroads,1! gTsin, provisions and everything ho could find calculated to benefit the rebels.

This may be only a feint to "prevent the rebels from sending the troops t that point to Virginia, but the country certainly--expects a real renew at of the attack and that Gen. Hunter will be able to prove by uniting in it that he has not been placed at so important a point, merely as an ornament. We hope the next attempt of our iron clads will be accompanied by a demonstration on the part of the army near Charleston. Old Sol at His Post A letter from Elliott Winscott to Isaac W.

Mr. Wallach left for the South on the Lreakiug out of the rebellion. Below, we publish the address of the traitor Vallandighsm, to his brethren of Ohio. His 'military prism,' from which his missive is dated, is comfortable quarters at a hotel, and he construes his tory utterances into 'political opinions,' his defense of tho doctrine that Secession is a Consti tutional right, into "the lights of the people" thtir Constitutional hbeities."

Cooef aud SallciealBeuoas. Maj. Gen. Burnride give the following
reasons 'lor issuing General Order No. 38, and expresses his determination to enforce that order to the letter.

If I were to indu'ge in wholesale criti"smsoi TMy w me uovevnmens. would demoralize the army under my comanJ ftD( ev fy ffiend of bis countrv WOQjd -tl mo r.Imr If i!ia rfficrs or soldlt-rs were to indu'ge in soch criticisms, it woold weaken the armv to the extent of their in fluence ; and if this criticism were universal in the army, it would cause it to be broken to pieces, the Government to be divided, our homes to be invaded, and anarchy to reign. My duty to my Government forbids me lo indulge in such criticisms ; officers and soldiers are not allowed to so indulge, atd this course will be sustained by all honest men. Now, I will go further. We are in a state of civil wtr. One of the States of this Department is at this momnt invaded, and three others have been threatened. I command the Department, and it is my duty to my country and to this army to keep it in the bert possible condition ; to see that it is fed, clad, armed, and. as far as possible, to see that it is encouraged. If it is my duty and the duty of the troops to avoid saying anything that would weaken the army, by preventing a single recruit from joining the ranks, by brirgingthe laws of Congress into durepute, or by causing dissatisfaction in the ranks, it is equally tho duty of every citizen in the Department to avoid the same evil. If it is my duty to prevent the propagation of this evil in the army, or in a portion of my Depart ment, it is equally my duty ia all portions! of it ; ar.d it is my duty to use all the: force m my power to stop it. If I were to find a man from the enemy's country, distributing in my camps speeches of their public men that tended to demoralize the troops, or to destroy their confidence in the constituted authorities of the Gov ernment, I would have them tried and hung if (onnd guilty, and all the rules of modern warfare would sustain- me. Why should such speeches from our own public men be allowed ? The press and public men in a great emergency 1 ke the present, should avoid the use of party epithets and bitter invectives, and discourage the organization of secret political societies, which are always undignified and disgraceful to a free people, but now they are absolutely wrong and in jurious ; they create dissensions and discord which just now amount to treason, lhe simple names " Pa'.riot " and "Traitor,", are comprehensive enough. n as i Deiore said, we aie in a state oi civil war, and an emergency ' is upon us which requires the operations of some power that moves more quickly than the civil. 1 here never was a war carried on successfully without tbe exercise of that pow er. It is said that the speeches which are condemned, have baen made in the presence of large bodies of citixens, who, if they thought them wrong, would have then and there condemned ihem. That is no arguoaent. These citizens do not realize the effect upon the army of onr country, who are its defenders. They have never been in the field ; never faced the enemies of their country ; never undergone the privations of our soldiers in the field ; and besides they have been hi the habit of hearing their public men speak, and as a general thing of approving of what they Bay; therefore the greater responsibility rests npon the public men ami upon the public press, and it behooves I hem to be careful as to what they s iv. They must not use license and plead that they are exercising liberty. In this department it cannot be done. I shall use all the power I have to break down such license, and I am sure I will be sustained in this course by all honest men. At all events I will have the consciousness, before God, of having done my duty to my country, and when I am swerved from the performance of that duty by any pressure, public or private, or by any prejudice, I will no longer be a man or patriot. I again assert, that every power I possess on earth, or that is given me from above, will be used in defense of my Government, on all occasions, at all limes, and in all places within this Department. There is no party no community no State Governmartnn Stats lsM&la.tTVfi VmiA v no ftnmnr- " - "& j I ation, body or men mat nave me power io inaugurate a war policy that has the validity ot law and power, but the constituted authorities of the Government of the. United States; and I am determined to support their policy. If the people do sot approve that policy, they can change the constituted authorities of that Government, at the proper time and by the proper method. Let them freely disenss the policy is a proper tone ; but my duty requires me to atop license, and intemperate discussion, .which tends to. weaken the authority of tbe Government and army whilst the latter is in the presence cf the enemy it is cowardly so to weaken it- This license could not be used in our camps tbe man wool-1 be torn in pieces who would attempt it. There is no lar of . the people losing their liberties ; we all kuoit ttiat to be the cry of demagogues, and none but tbe ignorant will lietea to it ; . all intelligent men kaow that our people are too far advanced iu tbe rcale of religion. civiitxaUon, educauon a ad freedom to allow anv power on earth to interfere with t.i.: tti T: . l. j : . their liberties; but thk same advancement in these great characteristics of our people, teaches them to make all necessary sacrifi ce for. their country, when aa emergency requires. ; They will support the constituted authorities of the Government." whether - they agree with them or notv Indeed, the army itself is a part of the people, and U so thoroughly educated in the love f civ il liberty, which is the best guarantee for the permanence of oar republican insiitu-
tions, that it would itself be the fir si to op pose any at temp, to continue the exercise of military authority after the establishment of peace by the overthrow of the rebellion. No man on earth can lead our citixvn soldiery to the establishment of a military despotism, and no man liv ng would have tbe folly to attempt it- To do so would be to Seal his own doom. On this point there can
be bo ground for apprehession on the part of the people. - , - r - It is said that we can have peace. if we lay down our arms. All sensible men know this to he untrue. Were it so, ought we to be so cowardly as to lay them down umil the authority of the Government is acknowledged? - - ' I beg leave to call upon the fathers, mothers, brothers, sisters, sods, daughters, relatives, friends and neighbors of soldiers in the field to aid me ia stopping this license end intemperate discussion, which is dis cou raying our armies, weakening? the hands

But, whether by the Tariff or the Slave, . ,. . , .... tbe great object kept continually in view was . -rt ,1'iT ing from that which our fathers established by the revolution ; and the leaders ol lbe conspiracy bad this ever in view, with the addition cf negro slavery as the great corner stone of their system. The Southern Literary Messei ger, published at Richmond, the leading political and iiierary journal of the South, known to speak the sentiments of the chief conspirators iu the rebellion, in its number of February, thus boldly proclaims their intentions in the establishment of a new government : " 1 he South is now engaged in a death struggle with a radical democracy, the willing instrument of consolidation in the hands of an abolition oligarchy. That benign institution of Slavery, which it is now the pride and gloiy of the South to ascribe to Divinity, and which war has proven to be next to the devoted patriotism andundanut-J ed resolution of her sons the great element of power in the Confederacy will prove in presenting a too heavy influx from foreign shores of that class of population devoid to menial pursuits, another bulwark against the encroachments of those tenden cies to democracy, which have been the Pandora's box of disinteragatioa and ruin to all republics. Confederate in form may our government be Confederate in fact. Republican in name, let it not be democratic in reality. First of all we should ever keep before us, as the essential feature in the image of perlect government, the States Right theory,. . Th a. rigidly adhered to, will avert the danger of centralization of power.' Secondly, let ns seek at once to eradicate every vestige of radical democracy, every feature tending to make oars a popular government, making it subeject only te the intelligent and virtuous, and those who are interested in its successful administration.

On reading the article in the 'Broadaxe of May 2, headed "Personal A Slander Refuted," we were forcibly reminded of two old incidents which we thought specially applicable to the editor of the Axe and his tool, Pec'i-in-paugh: tf Once npoa a time, a thief walked into a shoemaker's shop, picked np left at a double-quick pace taken by a policeman after or four squares. On being magistrate, the thief put in the pita, that he did j not "intend it aa any thing serious, but simply aa . a joke.' The magistrate, however, deemed tbe plea inadmissible, for the reason that, tbe scamp had caaxiKD thk jokx too tab. The other, is the historical reminiscence related of the mon key who roasted a Peck ofchesnuU, and instead ! of usin its own paw to draw them from the fire, itcanght a cat and used its pa ugh . exposed his circular operation thro that motive. Nothing could be further from the truth. Another applicant for the same position, who was a friend of Mr. J.'s at the time that Hammond voted at the last Presidential election for Breckinridge and Lane, and is yet his personal friend by Mr. H., and his effort at raising a squeal of persecution for Julian's sake, proves an abortion, For the purpose of calling attention from him self, Hammond, in his last paper, charges Mr. Barks with being disloyal, and introduces twoj certificates that he (Barks) bad expressed dis3 .

Mr. Julian, attempted to carry out the latter pledge in good faith, by t placing his chattel in the office of Provost Mar-1 shall ; but bis intentions were thwarted by the glaring rascality of the circular ' juse," and the foul record ot his organ-grinder in this city, furnished by a personal friend and supporter. Mr. Julian, declined placing bis two hundred dollar purchase in so conspicuous a position, and appointed an honest and true man as Provost Marshall.

F BeJtiaere Cli? per. Taltandlsbaaa U Meter Arrest. The dispatches from Cincinnati advise us
of the arrest of this infamous traitor, whose speeches and letters have been relied npoa by the rebels, as tending to strengthen their cause as much as their araiies iu the field. There can be no doubt, therefore, that be 0f which he has leen guilty, if it had been committed by a Union man in Dixie against the bogus confederacy, he would have dangled between hesven and earth long ao. Vallandisy'iam. like many others of his stamp, have so long been permitted with impunity, lo denounce l.e government, and to instigate the people of the country to an opposition against the war for the suppression of the rebellion, that tbey bad bejan to believe that the authorities of the land were afraid to bring Ultra to account. Perhaps Val is not the only one that will in due time find himself disappointed. Gea Haileck'e remark. t ontiineJ io the letter to the N. Y. meeting, are very significant, and the copperheads uo doubt fully understand its purport. The government may have been slow in some of its movements, but probably they would be justified in their action, if all the circumstances surrounding them could be made manifest to the public eye. Tbe recent endorsement of the President's course by Ex-Governor Thomas, in hia recent speech at Cumberland, will confirm the opii.ion which is generally entertained of the honesty of the Chief Magistrate, ev en in the minds of those who differ with him tu some of the leading measures of his sd ministration and in this spirit we publish the following brief sketch of the speech of Governor Thomas, which was recieved with the most thrilling applause: 'He traced the cause of the present rebel lion baek to the treasonable efforts of Calhoun in 1832, and gave a graphic description of the rise and progiessof tho national troubles, from their inception up to the pre sent time; shewed the unreasonableness of the pretended grievances of the Southern conspirators, and their persistant efforts to destroy our nationality, and to build up a new aristocratic government among themselves, founded on r.egro slavery, to the exclusion of white labor. He accorded to President Lineolu the purest motives, and a patriotic determination to crush the rebellion aud restore peace and prosperity to the country, which is destined to become the proudest and happiest on the face of the earth. , "lie said that power and responsibility must rest somewhere, and he was willing to confide in the President, and sustain him to . t. . . . ... ie juuest extent, in carrying out tne mess.11 .- . - ursS aaoprea py congress tor prosecuung the war.

A letter fiom Mr. Adms, our, Minister, has beea published, in relation to a vessel about trading to a Mexican port, which is considered as extra-judicial, and as aa interference with British rights but no real cause of off -nc can be taken by the British Govern ment. The letter was possibly an injudicious one. as it undertook to endorse the vessel as being on a bona JtJe voyage to Metaraoras, and n-t intended tor a Texan part on the other side of the river, as had been the case with others going in the same direction -As the vessel ha 1 stores oa board suitable for the Mexicans in their war against France, the endeavor is made to stir up the jealousy of the French E nperor, by charging the" American Minister with thus aiding tbe Mexicans against him. Mr. Seward will no doubt coon put the matter right, without any ' dimcuity, aa there is really nothing in the transaction to prove any impropriety on the , part of our minister, at least beyond mere inadvertence.
