CONTRABANp OF WAR.

1t is somewhat amusing TO notice the
grimaces of a peculiar class Of citizens
among us, as they discourse upon the
condition Of slaves under the new term
General BUTLER has given 10 negro prop
erty. So long as the slaves are escaping
from their masters, and no one reclaims
them, this idea of such property being
contraband Of war suits their thieyish
ideas exactly. But when this contraband
property is returned TO the owners, be-
cause rs loyal citizens Of the United
States demand is made for the protec-
ton of our country's laws in the search
and reclamation Of such property, then
the old howl and shrek, that the "Union
is a covenant with DEATH" breaks out OK
tensively. Poor, traitorous wretches They
love their country and they hate it. They
live upon the fruit while gnawing at the
root. They laud the privilege Of saying
just what they choose, and then shrink
from the responsibility of such action.
They undermine the unity of the Repub.
lie, condemn and do all they can to ex-
tinguish every fraternal sentiment be-
tween the North and South, and still
clamor loudest Cor Union; substitute
their own cratic ideas of law, order and
justice for the established laws of the
land, and then urge that the constitution
and laws be established and enforced
Conscious of being despised as the insti-
gators of dscord and stunned by the
actors who have worked out their prob,
lem to its logical result, they have the
double glory of being equally conscious
that their own ideas ard purposes are the
backbone of the political organization
now in power, and the poison that is sap
ping its vitality. What n paradox

The Next CoNGREss.-In about two
weeks an extra session of Congress will
be held. And what will be its business?
First, undoubtedly, to provide for war
loan of sufficient magnitude to enable the
government to prosecute with yigor the
suppression Of the rebellion.
Secondly, May we not hope that some
basis Of an honorable adjustment Of our
national difficulties may be suggested,
whereby the further effusion of blood may
be spared? We would by no means ad-
vocatc, in the final settlement, any COM
promise Of principle or Of right to indi-
viduals or States, now recognized by the
Constitution. But we long to see some
effective panacca applied to the revolving,
CHASTITY wound that may affect porma-
mont cure. Is there not sufiiciency Of
wisdom in our political doctors to COM
pound the soothing, healing cordial?

Our Defeat at Bethel.

The result of Brigadier General
PERcE's expedition should convince any
mind that military operations, to DO sue
cessful, must be in the hands of somebody
besides braggant politicians. Because
man has attained some political notoriety,
and has done his party some service, does
not qualify him for successfully welding
the deadly machinery of war. 1t seems
to be quite evident that Mr.. PIERCE is
not the only one of his kind now holding
a commission in the Federal Army, to the
exclusion of mon who have seen army
service and have been trained systemat-
ically for that purpose. We quality (O
man for the State Legislature, or a
member Of Congress, in caucus; but that
sort Of thing is harmless compared with
the same course, or as a reward for polit-
cal service, TO fit a man and therefore APP
point him to lead patriots in the armed
defence of their country against the as
saults Of a murderous rebellion.
Where are the brave officers who defend
cd Fort Sumpter? And have we not

competent as school district politicians tc

What's the News?

We shall hereafter, from week TO week
attempt general Average of the news,
in regard to the circumstances and pro-
gress Of the Federal Army, and present
our readers with the result rs upon our
minds. This will be no trifiug task, for
the abomination of lying has seized and
possessed almost the entire corps Of tele-
graphic operators, and our exchanges, of
the daily issues, reflect the contortions
caused by the epidemic. DE SANITY, the
operator at the American end of tho
transatlantic wire, was charged with alb
sorbing all the news, and being incapable
of communicating, excepting at long in
torvals, until his existence was deemed 10
be fantasy or myth. His race is evil
IDENTITY extinct, for the wires are swapping
nowadays with eagerncss to divulge
something new, hit or miss, and the OPP
orators either draw upon their fruitful
lmagInatlons for facts, or the Father of
Lies supplies the electricity for the bate
RES OF telegraph offices in the vicinity of
Washington. In either case MAuxcHUs-
EN- or CULVER would despair of a hear
ing and their attempts at exaggeration be
doomed nearer truth.

One thing is particularly noticeable In
the life aud history Of many of our most
eminent men, as intimated in tho Ian
guage that at times revealed the al
most prophetic prescience that seemed to
prcvade their minds as to the ultimate
destiny Of our country. Is il TO be sup
posed that q Washington, an Adams, and
Jefferson, and in later days, Clay and
n Webster did not foresee that there ex-
listed within our government, causes that
might ultimately work its overthrow and
the dissolution Of the ties that have hith-
erto SO strongly, in appearance at least,
bound the States of this vast Confedera-
cy in one!
They have publicly and in the hearing
of thousands given utterance TO such SEN
timents MS a warning 10 every lover OF his
country to guard against those ills, and
not to foster for moment, any germ OF
discord or sectional strife. How impress
lively TO our minds comes the sentiment
that they did not wish to live to behold
the sun shine upon disruptured Union
They had labored through long and event
fp lives TO cement the national ties that
had, even in tEeir day, given us name
and position enviable in the sight of all
nations. Then so soon to behold the
glorious supcr-structure crumble and fall
to pieces for want OF political and mora
affinity, was sight they prayed not tc
witness, and they were saved the sac
spectacle. But it is the lot of their de.
scendants TO behold the dawning Of the
evil they so much deprecated. Their
what remains for us but to use all the
means that God has placed in our power
to avert, if possible, our entire overthrow
as nation remembering that in so doing
our every act should have reference to the
principle for which they contended-tha
of selfgovernmcnt-that the will Of thu
majority shall be the supreme law, anC
that the rights of every citizen shall b
equally respected. These are the grea
principles that were fostered and estab
lished by those great men of our nation
who though dead yet speak in their word
and deeds that perish not. Let us b
worthy sons of such noble sires.

his wife leaned lovingly over him and sob
bingly asked, Husband, do you know

eyes and smiled, and though too weak TO
speak, the movements Of the muscles Of
his mouth evinced that he was making
an almost dying struggle to comply with
her request.
His death was calm and peaceful; a few
faint breaths after nine o'clock, short
convulsive shudder, and Stephen A.

New YORK, June II.
DR.. Richards, physician of the Presi-
dent, has been taken prisoner by the Sc
cessionists and taken to the Richmond
Jail.
The impression prevails that the cap
tured privateersmen will be hung, but it
is feared the act will be retaliated on the
Unionists of the South.
1t is reported that Gen. Butler will
make a demonstration towards Yorktown
within forty-eight hours.
The President is working on his mes
sage. lie will take the highest ground
in favor of prosecuting the war with the
utmost vigor, recommending call for
half million of men, and appropriating
two hundred millions of dollars.
The whole rebel force, except the rear
guard at Manassas Junction, is said to be
retiring to Richmond.
The war department has ordered
the rebuilding of the Harper's Ferry
bridge. 1t is expected TO be done in five
days.

An officer with dispatches arrived from
Cairo. He states that intelligence had
been received there that the rebels under
command of Gen. Pillow had everything

towards Cairo on the 18th inst.
The commander at Cairo had no doubt
of his ability to resist any force the reb-
els might bring against them.

Iowa Agricultural College and Farm.

We have received from Gen. Wilson
a copy of the second Annual Report
of the Iowa Agricultural College and
Farm. From it we learn that the
finances arc in a very satisfactory
condition. The report says:
BY the time of the next meeting of
the Legislature we can exhibit to the
people of the State, farm of near
$50 acres in a state of improvement
and cultivation, such as no institution
of the kind in the Union commenced
with, with sufficient capabilities to sus-
tain every individual who can be &C.
commodated in College Building that
costs the sum Of SAC, 900, even ifsuch a
building is completed within two years
from this time. Also fund which
will at that time show an actual or
sno-S "~a r. .eI,~~S of 49," .......-l 49,
nue., of upwards of $4,000 annually,
sufficient, with the support received
from the farm to sustain three profes
sorships. We must not stop here, is the
hope of every well wishcr to the pros
perity of our highly favored State,
and it is not necessary that we should.
Gen Wilson has also issued circu-
lar in regard to seeds for 1861, which
has been mailed to numerous individ-
ua!s, Farmers Clubs, Agricultural So
cieties, &c, urging the Importance of
care in saving and sending to his Of
flee choice seeds Of various dcscrip-
tions.

Col. Curtis.

The Kcokuk Gate City of the 9th
nit informs us that Colonel, or rather
Brigadier General Curtis arrived at
keokuk on the evening of the Goth.
He reports that very large majority
of the people with whom he has come
in contact in Missouri have given him
the warmcst possible welcome. Strong
men, and ladies without number, have
greeted him with tears in their eyes
as delivcrer from the worst tyranny
that men ever endured. The vicious
traitors have generally fled to the bush
and a most salutary fear has fallen on
the scccssionists. At the same time
hundreds Of people who have been de-
ceiycd and deluded by their leaders,
are now coming in and volunteering
their allegiance to the Union, and
many of them are turning with bitter
ness against their former leaders.
The Colonel speaks in high terms of
all his companies. In all his former
military experience, he never saw
soldiers do so much wearing service
watching night and day-with so
much alacrity and unhnchinS hardi-
hood In order to Tighten their labors
the Third Regiment Of Iowa volun-
teers had orders to leave Keokuk last
week, and take charge of a portion Of
the Hannibal and St. 10. Railroad. II
will then be divided between the Hi
nois troops on the cast end, the third
regiment in the middle, and the sec
ond regiment on the west end.
We believe the Colonel expected to
return to Hannibal the next day, and
from thence, after posting the third
regiment, would 60 direct to Wash
ington to attend the extra session Of
Congress.

THE CASE OF Mr., HARyEY.-Tbc pas

The CASE OF Mr.. HARvEY.-The past
record of Mr.. Harvey, our Minister to
Portugal, does not bear investigation
very well. In 1874 he held a clerk
ship under Tyler, in the State Depart
ment, and he there had access to State
secrets. These, according to the new
York Post, he divulged in series of
letters to the New World, "a New
York weckly,) greatly to the annoy
ance of the Administration. An in
vestigation was made to discover the
author of the letters, and Harvey was
accused of being the writer, by the
Aurora, a daily paper then published
in New York. Harvey wrote to the
Aurora, Indignantly denying the
charge, and enclosing letter from
the proprietor of the New World,
which seemed to sustain Harvey's dcni-
al, though it did not sustain it in fact.
At this stage of the proceedings there
was obtained from the Office Of the
New World a page or two of the orig.
inal "copy" of one of the Washing.
ton letters, and from the Office of the
Aurora the original letter of Harvey
in contradiction of the charge. These
were found to be in the hand writing
of one and the same person. They
were forwarded to President Tyler,
and Harvey was promptly removed
from his Office.
