A Ictler to the Chicago Journal Riving particulars, shows the reverse to have resulted from bad management The forces were advanced in driblet and slaughtered In detail when at last the main body of our army came up and checked the enemy. The movement was controlled by Gen. Stone, Chief of Gen. Banks'' stafT, and of Ball's Bluir fame ; and if the reports we have are 'correct, it must be -confessed that it is a second Ball's BlutT affair. The Unionioss is reported at two thousand, and large quantities of materials. A dispatch to the rebel papers says one of our gunboats was also lost. The expedition was brought to a stand, and wotdd be compelled to re organize before moving again. The enemy numbered 10,000. Our first attacking force 'was 2,000. These were rc-enforeed by 1,00. Then 7,000 wore brought up. Tlie Florida disaster is, by this performance thrown into the sbsde. ".,.. , ., i : .I. tj...i r : - Capture of Ft. Pillow Horrid Massacre of the Prisoner by Forrest. Fort Tillow, the attack on which was noticed in our dispatches, has fallen, after a gallant and protracted rcsisteuce. , The garrison numbered only six hundred men, two hundred of them black. The rebels, who were commanded by Forrest, were over 0,000 strong. They wercjhreo times repulsed, 'but finally overpowered the little garrison, the commander of which Major Booth was killed. No sooner had they gained possession of the fort than, a scene of Butchery commenced.' The negroes were massacred without mercj", ad many of -the whites killed after they had surrendered. . Wounded men and children were killed , and even dead bodies mutilated by the ferocious victors, a number of weunded negroes and the corpses of other colored soldiers were put In a hut, which was then set on fire." Only two hundred of thearrison were li vine after the massacre. " Col. Bradford,' of the 1st Alabama Cavalry, (Colored,) was in command, and although wounded, made a nqble defense until three o'clock, when, the rebels , aent in a flag of truce, of which they took advantage and rushed upon the fort ' The. following commissioned,,' officers were kUled ;Capt T L. Bradford of Toledo, company A, thirteenth cavalry ; Lieut J.!C Barr, 13th Tennessee Carairy; IJetrtC. Askertun, Co. C, do.; Lieut Wilson Co. A, do.; Lieut Beno, Co. E, do. ' : ' .:. t...... . . ..

Hsralrr. " " .CoU Bradford was n resident of Toledo. Forrest himself was wounded, and after the capitulation he confessed that the fort had been desperately defended. U ' After the fight , wasjver the 'steamer Plane Valley came" up the river. She wassailed by "the reikis and some of her men sent ashore "to help bnryvthe dead and take the wounded up to Cairo. She-arrived at the latter piaee Thursday evening with some of the sufferers. With' allowance for exaggeration in the accounts recrivedj there can be no doubt that the massacre wc one of the most , horrible that has disgraced the history of modern warfare. Fort Pillow, the scene of this tragedy, is situated on the Tennessee shore, about eighty miles above Memphis. At last accounts the rebels were supposed to be moving towards that city. , ' Six guns captured by the rebels were carried off, including two twelve-pounder Parrotts and two twelve pounder howitzers, and a large amount of stores destroyed or carried away. jtif Two "negro soldiers, wmimlod at Fort lH!ow, were buried by the rebela, and fiey afterwrrd worked themselves out of their graves. They were among those brought up en the Platte Valley, and are now in the hospital at Bound City, The officers of the Platte Valley receive great credit from the millitary, and all others, for landing at Fort Pillow at imminent risk, and taking on our wounded, and for kind and humane treatment manifested toward them on the way up, doing everything possible to render aul, and relieve their suffering. A mistake occurred in the order consolidating the Eleventh aud Twelfth Corps. The new Corps, under General Hooker, is numbredthe Twentieth, not the First. ' A lsrge number of female relatives of reliel ollicers are coming up the river to locate in "Northern ''cities. They are required to take the oath cf allegiance before leaving New Orleang. Workmen engaged in ; repairing the Nashville it Louisville .Railroad just beyond Cave City, on Friday, carelessly left an iron crow-bar on the track while they were gone to dinner. The passenger train going South ran upon the bar, upsetting the locomotive and piling the baggsge car and one passenger car upon it, and injuring all the cars of the train more or less, fortunately without killing any person, though several were ou board at the time. There ire 4,680 men in the frontier parrisotis of Gen. Pope's department. Tho main force of the summer expedition is with Gen. Sully on the Miouri. A rell mail carrier was recently captured by the pmiboat Ki. 20, near Crockett 'Landing, Ark. Fito hundred letters, many of ttiem official communications for Phrereport, from Richmond, inclosing quits an amount in greenbac!, wera taxen. The unlucxv postman also had 60,000 peicusston caps for Pkice's army. The President lias signed the bill extending the time for the acceptance by States of the grants of land for agricultural colleges to two years. Wfst Virginia is now admitted to share in the provisions of tha till. General IIinks hag just returned to Point t ookout from an expedition to Virginia, where ho captured $iO.OOO worth of tobacco, together with a gnr of blockade runners who had it in charge. The tobacco was fresh, and of Richmond manufacture. A woman was recently arrested near Fort Pillow, charged with smuggling. Upon her person were found orders from the rebel Colonel Hicks for ammunition and other contraband articles, and information was obtained from her implicating men in that vicinity. The1 New York World has a report that Smith will command two corps and move 'up the Peninsula against Richmond, while Meade"engngcs Lee's attention in front, Burnside at the same Cme attempting the route to Goldsboro. The majority of the House Committee on Elections will report in favor f Blair's right to his seat, and a nrinority in favor of Knox. The recent storm -caused considerable damages to bridges across the various streams in Virginia, and cut off communication between Washington and the Army of the Potomac. The damages r.re, however, mostly repaired. Fernando Wood S3ys that -the Democratic part- cannot be a War party." True, because there is no Democratic arty. The part for the Union is he War party, and it believes in the subjugation or submission of the rebels. The appearance of Speaker Colfax on the floor of Congress has been remarked a- unusual. Henry Clay, when Speaker, w as accustomed occasionally to take the foor to address the Ilonse. The Speaker is a representative of the people, and if te sees fit, it is unquestionably his prerogative to call some other member to the chair while he addressd the House. Both branches of the Pennsylvania Legislature have pusscd the Mil providing for a special election throughout the tate on the jirsl Tuesday in Auaust next. f at which the people shall decide whether tae proposed amendment to the Constitution permitting soldiers to vote, shall te adopted. The Legislature is to meet on the 23d day of August to receive the returns. Sam Medary, threatens to balk the party team, if the reinsmen uudertake to tlrive on the war track. In his Crisis, ppcaking of the recent Ohio Democratic State Convention, he says; , "There can be no doubt aboutthe fact, that any attempt to transfer the Democ ratic party on to a war platform will be resisted with more determination than laen, who would sell the country for an Mlice," suppose. They want neither Lin- , olu nor any of his Major Generals. 'The strength, and the only strength f the Democratic party, from the m to to last, has been cj jpotition to tfris var, unloly, barbarous and ruinous." About two huulred wagons leave St. Lotus -iaity for Idaho. , Te Boston boird of broker9ow ask $2,000 as a admission fee. : A large emigration is going on from Ohio to , Jforthweet MUkvuirt. . ...

B- We t-k . tMt MV win e article f rora the 1 la lison Courvr, t and endorae its eoorlasioas rei4'xg the postponement of tae tims appinted by Cia National Excuiiv Committee for the i-etiag' of the Xaiional ConrenttoTiomiaaacaaJiditefarPresiejant We ace the Btmtdmrt editor of this city, who hrpocr iticallr proleBda Ut frtniW to the Tnomina&a of Mr. Lincoln, poes for the postponemest.

As a . sample of the arguments used in favor of said postponement we publish the fol lowing from a recent communication to- the Cincinnati Gazette: Msss-KKS. Editoes: Your editori al in favor of postponing the ne:tt Nati onal Union Convention unfit after the 6urr.mer campaign, has attracted much attention in this neighborhood, among the better class of Union men, meets vith hearty approbation. We recognize in this nomination the gravest duty imposed 'cm' us as citizens, and believe that it should lie done rith due deliberation, ahd after the widest discussion and consultation. The cry eo common with a certain set of timid or interested people, that we must not discuss the fjunlifications of the various candidates, for fear of divid ing the Union party, is too contemptible! to nrfirr rFbo orrntl-o Tr in TV 1m 1tt ci wJi lAfairmeans, are hnrryingns into an in- ! considerate selection- iT a candidate, are themselves bringing aliout what tl iey pretend to depreciate. To give the c andidate a hearty support, we must hav a chance to be generally satislied. 1 do not propose in this to discuss the merits of any candidate. I only beg for time to discuss. But to illustrate the fol ly of so csrJy a selection, permit me to say to those now eager to secure tlie. nomination of Mr. Lirrcolri and so warn tly in favor of an early selection, that cvei its may occur, ns they have occurred, ' id: iking Mr. IJncoln as unpopular after t lie nomination, as it is believed he is pop ular lKfore. There are many tlrinirs about this B iltimore Convention we do not like, ai id are not disposed to submit to. It is called at an early day as if to hurry' i as into an inconsiderate selection. It is to meet at Birftimore within easy reach of Washingion, and it is n-atnral to suppo ?e that the delegates will visit the capit al before the session and can be influence al by the appliances so common on such o casions. e have lon since thrown c 11 partj- trammels in our love of countr y and are not disposed to submit to sue h partisan trickery ns -we are now bcin g treated to. It is a little too-bare face I. The hvok should at least be baited. I repeat again, thf-e managers ar e bringing what we should all as true patri -ots deeply deplore I mean dissatisfaction and divisions in the Union party. If this haste is persisted in by tlie me: i running-our political organization, I ca l assure them that one half of the Unioi l voters in this Congressional District wil 1 bolt their ticket and vote for John C. Fie -mont. - Umon Votkks The -animus of the above communication which is too undisguised to race ; with the approbation of the editor of the Gazette shows plainly that this latter day movement originates in opposition othe re nomination" of President Lincoln. It was not imtil the action of State Conventions, and Legislatures in instructing delegates, aud the withdrawal of Chase's name that the decision ef the National Executive Committee' was urged to be unwise, in fact, some of the very news papers that are now urging postponemeat, wrote commendatory articles on that action, remarking on the necessity of an early Opening of flie National political canipnign. ruuuenty, uowever, iney infect to discern that the sixth-of June is too carbr. They foresee direful conserpzenses mflcss the meeting of the Convention is postponed. ; Now, why thi3 wondrous change of opinion? In oiir opinion it simply amounts to this. The opponents of Mr. Lincoln know that if the Convention meets on the sixth of June, he will be nominated to tlie Presidency almost by acclamation. If, however, they can seenre a postponement, th-ey hope, by wire pulling, and political artifice, to throw obstacles in the way of - Mr. Lincoln's nomination, and thus increase the chances of their favorites. This sj)irit is plainly seen in the above commutiication. It is false and hypocritical throughout, and indicates a spirit of factious opposition not to be tolerated in Union ranks. The Central Unionv-Committee have full power to appoint for the meeting of the National Convention, any day which .they see fit This right they have in .virtue of their official position. The decision once made, if at ail within the bounds of reason, must be submitted to, or we are at sea, having no central organization, and no harmonious action. Now, when the writer of the above communication assures us that one-half of the Union voters of his. Congressional district in- I tend bolting the Union Convention, un.-. less, a postponement is ejected, he simply f makes an ass of him self,' and slanders thel'irwi tiien of his district If ihej National Ivxecuttve Committee think it I expedient to postpone the meeting of the" National Convention,' well and " good if t not, tho Union people will be crmtcnt I ' f As we have'cfore 'remarked, -tha Gn-1 cinnati Gazette doesoaofc approve of the j spirit of the Cornmuaicatioa what It pnbj lbhes. ' The Indianapolis Gazette, however, wliioL recefrtly4ias evinced a re-

markable facility for "putting its Toot in The following comjp unicatioa. upon the subject appears iaHLhe Cincinnati Gazette this morning, is response to an edg torial in that paper, tf last Thursday or Fridav.f We publish it because it doubtless represents the views jtcd feelings f a large propattlod of r Ko?t earnestr ioval and best citizens, and because it contains a great deal of truth. j ' In anruiig for a postponement of the National Convention, the Gazette says: - We intend to4,kcep up 'the fire' in i favor of the proposition, so long as there

I hi any nope ui au.v.r5c, v an puu all Union papers with whom we exchange. and all that we can reach, to join in the demand for such postponement; for we tell them and every one else who feels any interest in the harmony ; and success of the Union party, that it must le doneox there will be trouble ! The change can be made and if the Union papers of the country will generally join in the demand it will be done. - Now, we reckon the Gazette's lire won't burn anybody's fingers but its own; and as for its calling upon "all Union papers with whom we exchange' it may pipe unto them bnt they won't dance. The Gazette's unscrupulous opposition to the instruction cf Indiana delegates,' its misrepresentation of the whole affair, and its opposition to Lincoln's re nomination, utterly vitiate any article it may write in favor of the postponement of the meeting of the L'nion Convention. The "Beam" and the "Mote." Our cotemporary of the Randolph Join-rial, is terribly excited over the fact that some good Union men iu speaking about the rebellion term it "hellish," "damnable," "infernal,"' fcc, and concludes they are not "suited to do good in any way" not christainlikc, drc. In his zeal, he sweeping1denounces Christ and his Apostles for using nearly similar qualifying words in denouncing sin. For instance, Peter speaks of "damnable heresies;" Christ ' in denouncing hypocrites, says they "shall receive greater damnation," and asks the pertinent question: "how shall ye escape the damnation of hell?" ' But enough. The pious editor of the Journal, wliilst he preaches, the doctrine of speaking of this most wicked and causeless rebellion this unpardonable inequity of trying to destroy' the best Government God has ever vouchsafed to man with bated breath and hoiuyed words, forgets the "mote" in his own eye forgets the iniluence he may have "especially on the young," by using the names of "Cop perhead" and "Butternut" in speaking of those who are opposing the measures of the Administration for putting down the rebellion. The example of so pious a man as the editor of the Journal will certainly be preuicious, "especially on the young" causing them to make use of like cognomens towards the '-peace democracy" and thus "stir up strife"! tc. Our opinion, unasked, is, that the Journal man is engaged in the work of "straining at a gnat," and the disappearance of the camel down his capacious maw may be looked for as a necessary consequence. We are : in favor of calling things by their right names, and it savors of extreme sensitiveness to object to the use of such signiOcant terms as "hellish .rebellion," "damnable treason'" and "infernal reb els," in speaking of secession and those engaged in the work of destroying the government. That's so!" " How strangely the conduct- of another Brigadier General compares with the above noble sentiment Gen'l Kimbail did not go into the army as a stepping-stone to civil oflice." - Such patriotic conduct as manifested by Gen: Kimball, should put to shame the course of those jaen who have deserted their post in the field, and come home, and used the salary cf au important military office' to secure to them place and power in the legislative bodies of our country." . ?"We find the above in the last Axe. Not content with having rolled his garments in slander and tried to villify and defame the private character and military fame of "another Brigadier-General," f r the purpose of effecting the nominating election the Axe editor , keeps up its hameless and cowardly assaults on a rave man, by chaging him with having 'deserted his Twist in the field," and "used he salary" of his military office, to secure . civil position. The. editor of the Axe new.wheu he penned this malicious pars raph, that Gen. Meredith had a furlough o be at home, in consequence of his ribs aving been caved in, aud wounds receivon severe and bloody battle-fields. Gen. M. " did not go into the army as .stepping stone to 'civil office," but his riends like the friends of Gens. Schenck, umont and others, presented his name s a candidate, and he had as perfect a ight to use his own money to bear his own lection expenses as Geo. W. Julian had i payiDg out hi money to his friends, 3 secure the newspapers of this district I his behalf, and bear their expenses in ring and slandering a brave soldier for lat 31. C.'s benefit. '. The Axe't immacur ite candidate, if he spent any money at II during the canvass, certainly "used .e salary" of the office he now holds; in rder to ' i secure' it to him self again, nd the editor pf that sheet onlv makes ' n ass of himself, by such-puerile-and ; ontemptibie thrusts at the regularly ondnate I candidate for congress in the :ftQ District, Gen.

Ml Pmm tlin Vrii.lfritil eletion in 1SC0, to the 19th of September, 1K12, the county had sent to the army 1,182 volunteers, and in the State election of .1802, the vote for Mr. Julian, the Union caneiielate, was 1,677, ami for Johnson,! the Copperhead candidate, was 1,335; total, 3,012. This shows a loss in votes, by sending 1,182 soldiers to the army, of 532. Since the vote of 1SG2 was taken, the county has sent to the field 718 volunteers, which,; at the same ratio, will diminish the number of votes now in the county by 323 which being subtractcel from 3,012, the total vote in 3802, leaves 2,09 as the actual number of voters now in Randolph county. ' As seen above, the sending of 1,183 soldiers to the army reduced the Union vote of the county C21, while the Copperhead vote pained in the same time, by increaseof population, 9. '! It follows, therefore, that the sending of the 718 .oMInra tntlm fioM rvr,, t..i.a IbiXO I S'CrS to the held, from October 1602, i to April 1804, would renlucc the Union ! . , , . 1 VOte Ot the COUHty from l,t7 to I,304, j wllich ia now the legitimate 'strength of . - ; the Union party of Randolph countj'. i How does this result, which is verj nearly mathematically exact, 5 look by the side j of 2,124 the number of votes published ! , ... . ... by trie Journal as Having been polled at the recent nominating election ? Every election board in the" county being composetl exclusively of Julian men, it is fair to assume that they would suffer no Butternuts to vote for Gev. Meredith-. It follows, then, that the 321 Votes reported for Gen. Meredith were all Union ftt. .k .i., . votes; and when we tleduct that number from 1,351, the total L'nion vote of the county, as shown above, it leaves 1,033 as the number of Union votes cast for Mr. Julian, instead of 1803, thus demonstrating bej-ond cavil that 770 ButterUllts in bandolph County Voted for Mr. Juli-,n at the nominating election ; and it v-v-,1-" being totally inadmissable to suffer But- . e t termite to interfere in L nion nominations, that number must be deducted from Mr. uuiians rtporten majorityt beiore the . . , .

Can. Scbenck in the Long Cae. ' f The WaslJngton Ghronicie,deacribin the debate i Ut - House of Representa-

Uves on the Long case, remark aa follows" upon Gen- Schenck reply . to Fer nando ooet, viz: - - Mt Schenck follejwed the gentleman from New York, and he followed him up with Tengence. A more scathing personal expose vm never made in a deliberate body. Ne report could do justice to thia terrible excoriation. Oool, cogent, arcaatic, and at times impassioned, it exposed the hallowness and inconsistencies of the ex-mayor in a way that even made his matchless" assurance wince. He was shown up as the correspondent of Toombs Union orator at Union Square, the secret leader of the New York riot not the peace Democrat who was ready to crawl in the dust at the feet f hia Southern masters; Anywhere but in the House, Mr. Schenck s speecn woulel have been received with thunders of applause; as it was, it was difficult, at timea, to repress it' Mr. Schenck is a muscular, well built man with square head and full chest, and despite Ids wounded arm, is a most effective orator. Ilia comparison of the soldier who, on the eve of. battle,sought to sow dismay amorgst his comrades with the peace Democrat, was extremely felictious. His comments on Mr. Long's speech, with the extracts, were most appropriate. . ? - His rer.lv to the objection that the res olution was a gag on free speech was conclusive. The language of the Constitution, prohibiting a member - being called to account tor "woras spoa.cn m debate in any other place," showed , that 1 it was eiesiimea to ni raiiri Iriccent or profano WOrds were clkU9es cf censure and exp pulsion; and so thought Mr. Long's were not treasonable, they were sufficiently disgraceful in: purpose to merit expulsion. , The concluding passage which characterized the Constitution as the framework within which our institutions worked, while the Nation was the great body of the people, homogeneous and indivisible, which the Bongs and Ben Woods would divide under pretence of saving the framework, was supurb. The speech was listened to with the utmost attention, and the speaker was warmly congratulated. i.iii . . n III I I , , ,-t i ;Ou the Death of a Sister. - To the home of tbe true the loved one ia gome, ' And fond weeping friends are loA all alone They trust they will meet her away in the skies, . 1 When tbe last trump aha li sound and bid her arise.
