MORE FLoYDIsM-One of the most remark
able features Of Secretary Floyd's maladminis-
tration was the unblushing and unconcealed
manner of his peculiar transactions" An
investigation discloses the fact that, in most
reckless manner, and at great pecuniary sac
ri6ce, he sold as old iron some Of the best guns
in the possession Of the government. Recent
aevelopments show that, short time prior ta {.
the outgoing Of Ruchanan's administration,
Floyd sold to locomotive machine shop in
New Jersey nearly two dozen very large guns,
averaging 1900 pounds each, at the nominal
price of $40 per ton. The guns were sold as
old iron, though worth at least fifty cents per
pound. When taken to the machine shop the
attempt was made to break them in the ordi-
nary manner, but it was foundtq be 6 pAysic-
al impossibility. Finally they were put in a
lathe, and in that way wrenched to pieces
Several Of them are yet unbroken, and the de.
partment will probably repurchase them.

Another Cri,tcnden Compromi.c


The compromise" dodge is being quite
generally renewed by the rebels, just now,
through the medium of their Northern allies.
1t is said by Mr.. Crittenden's friends that he
is preparing plan of pacitication to be sub
mitted to Congress at the extra session. The
men of the North who have been ruined by
Southern bankruptcy and rascality, and the
laborer who is now stinted for want of en-
ployment, can carefully balance in their minds
how far they will submit to any alleviation of
their present difficulties which will leave the
original disease to break out with renewed vir-
ulence. Let any and every proposition of this
character be met with an indignant remon-
STRANGE and refusal. No terms. no condition
short of absolute submission should be enter
tained as basis of settlement. There can
be no compromise between constitutional au-
thority and armed rebellion You might as
well ask Gabriel to compromise with Lucifer.

PRoBABLE ADVANCE IN THE VALUE OF poR

PROBABLE ADVANCE IN THE VALUE OF Pork
There is every reason to believe that before
the next killing and packing season arrives
there will be very great advance in the value
of mess pork and hogs. The stock Of mess
pork on hand in Chicago is only $500 bbls.
The stock in New York city is but a little over
$4,000 bbls. There is less pork in store gen.
orally through the North than usual at this time.
A large portion of that packed last winter, was
shipped to the South before the war broke out,
the rebels taking every precaution to supply
themselves with food while they could Our
army now in the field and camp, will need a
large quantity of pork, and the supply will
soon be found inadequate to the demand So
firmly are holders convinced of this fact that
they decline to sell now, and wait for the rise
which they know must take place. 1t will be
we'll for farmers throughout the State, and the
West generally, to make their arrangements
for fattening all the hogs they can get hold of
this fall. They will be almost certain to get
good price for the pork.

Gen. Lyon issued a proclamation from

tice of his purpose to scrupulously avoid all
interference with the business, rights, and
property of every description, recognized by
the law of the State, and belonging to law
abiding citizens, and at the same time warm
ing the people of his determination to main
tain the paramount authority of the United
States, and calling on all persons who have
taken up arms, or who are now preparing to
do so, to return to their homes and relinquish
their hostile attitudes to the Federal govern
ment, assuring them that they may DO SO
without being molested for past occurrences:
Secession has undoubtedly received its qui-
etus in Missouri by Gen. Lyons bold and en-
ergetic move on Bonneville. We only regret
that Claib jackson did not fall into Gen. Ly-
on's hands ALSO It seems that his troops at
Bonneville were co imposed mostly Of young
men and boys, who represent that they were
misled by frauds of designing men to take up
arms. Those Of them taken prisoners we're
liberated by Gen. Lyon upon condition that
they would not again serve in the impending
hostilities against the United States govern
ment.

WAsHISeToN, June 18.
1t is stated on undoubted authority, that

Thorough reconnaissance, returned to Manassas

[Herald's Dispatch.l
WASHINGTON, June 18.
The Vienna attack commenced shortly af-
ter P. NJ. The late hour accounts for the
failure of the enemy to pursue, doubtless ex-
pecting strong Federal force near. Gen.
Schenck, with his sword drawn, boldly threw
himself between the batteries and his men,
giving his orders in cool and deliberate
mar ner and telling the boys that Ohio ex.
pected them to do their duty. If the train
had advanced one hundred yards further, the
loss of life would have been terrible and the
entire expedition made prisoners by the
enemy.
Worlds Special
1t is untrue that no previous reconnaissance
had bean made where the fight took place at
Vienna. The same train had not only pro-
! ceeded some three or four miles beyond the
scene of the conflict some days before, but
our scouts had been over the very ground on
which the battery was erected. The battery
consisted of six Founders, which fired seven
rounds. The first was most destructive,
scattering round shot and grape into the
passenger and platform cars, which contained
four companies Of the 1st Ohio regiment
The battery was on hill, almost perpendic-
ularly over the track, and it would have been
folly to attempt to take it. The troops were
therefore forced to make hasty retreat
The report that the battery was mounted by
South Carolineans is doubtless mistake
The force of the rebels is estimated st about
1000.
