SOCRI.
Especial Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune,1
qu1ScE, ILL.,, July II, 1851.
4 portion Of my former dispatch saying
thai Gen. Hurlbut Lad been superseded is not
correct; for, although Gen. Pope, oy virtue Of
his beirg the senior officer Of his rank in this
division, commands the whole force in North
Missouri, yet the former retains command Of
his brigade, and is as actiVein quelling treason
as before. He arrived here from Hudson at

NEW ORLEANS, July 20.-JctE Davis's Mes-
sage calls attention to the causes which
fcimed the Confederacy, and says "it is noE
cEly necessary to cali attention to such facts

matters in connection with the public de-

sahle to rtmoye the several Departments and

ttrates that his efforts are directed
against Virginia, and from no point could
measures for ler defense and protection

no1ths has stripped the veil behind which the
t1Ie policy and purposes of the Lincoln Gov
e1Ement were previously concealed, Whith
are fully revealed. The message Of their
President, the action of their Con
eress at the present session, con-
feeses the intention Of subjugating the
seeding States by war, the folly Of which
il equalled only by it's wickedness; q war BY
which it is impossible to attain the proposed
result Whilst its dire ca}amaties cannot be
fsveist&a by us they will :aH with double seVcr

secession Of States which organized The
Confederate Government, perslsting in April

Of the UnitedStates the evidence that they have
succeeded in driving the people Of
these States into the belief that the purpose
OF this Government is not peace at home, but
conquest abroad; not the defense Of our lib.
critics, but the subGersion Of the people Of thu
United States. Fortunately for the truth o

cess WAS impossible; the sending of notice
to the Governor Of South Carolina Of the in

will be no conflict unless these States Were
