T. FIrcH.-Little Mr.. Fitch, who edits a
newspaper week or two. then takes stool
in Federal Office for a few days, and next
takes the stump for the party in order that
he may do battle for principle, ETC., is the
subject of good story which we find in the
Morning Call. That paper says:
A good story is related of Fitch, the Re
publican orator. Whether true or fabulous,
we aver not, but as it never appeared in print,
though some months since, we here record it.
Among those in attendance upon the new
President in April last, importuning for Of
fee, was young Mr.. Fitch. He earnestly
sought fat place, to remunerate him for his
services in the cause of . the party" and
persistently did he plead therefor. At length
Uncle Abe said to him " Mr.. Fitch, really
am sorry that it is not in my power to give
you the Office you desire, here Fitch's coun-
tenance fell, but there is another position IN
which you can well serve your country, which
you can have Fitch's countenance bright
ened. Take these" said the President,
turning to the wall and taking thence Min
ME musket and accoutrements; " take these
your country needs soldiers join her ar
mics, and if you prove yourself good sol
dier, shall be pleased to give you an officer S
commission" In very short time the name
of ct. Fitch" was booked among the pas
sengers for California In the country's
battles he fights, Minnies are not needed,
and no sign of musket was among his bag
gage.

cause Of the universal condemnation which
the Administration receives for the late ter
rible disaster near Manassas Junction. The
Administration and its organs and advisers
are undoubtedly to blame for the result, and
the fact that they cannot shift the RESPONSE

party with confusion. Who does not remem-
Der the continual howlings of the New York
Tribune, and other Abolition sheets of the
North, week after week, and month after
month, about the dilatorincss of Gen. Scott
and the delay of the Government in advanc-
ing upon the South? They knew more than
Gen. Scott and all the military leaders in the
world They had an idea that one Abolition
tract read at the head of the armies, or one
of Greeleys old almanacs, would do more for
the success of the Federal armies than all the
discipline and all the skill that could be
brought into the field. They had an idea
that the laws of nature and of cause and eff
feet would be suspended in behalf of the sup
porters of the Government, and that it was
not necessary at all to consult reason and
common sense in an onslaught upon rebels.
They have found out their mistake, and are
now ready, We presume, to acknowledge that
military experience and the art of war
amount to something in the pendant scales
of battle
This same class of non combatant advisers
and volunteer hmrah-ers for battle were loud
in their denunciations of this same great
chieftain, Gen. Scott, during his magnificent
campaign in Mexico. They were impatient
of his long delays-his slow and steady
movements long training and discipline
of newly arrived regiments-his practising
Of the artillery, and, finally, of his cautious
and well prepared advances upon the enemy
But they saw, at last, what they never would
have seen, had their mad will prevailed, the
American flag waving over the battered walls
of Vera Cruz, the grand victory of the field
of Cerro Gordo, and the triumphant march
of the American army into the City of Mex
leo. Gen. Scott knew then what he was
about and he knows now. He has been
driven from his better Judgment by the pres
sure of public sentiment created by men
quite fit to bring a country into trouble, but
not to relieve it afterwards. 1t seems now
that the determination is to allow the old
Chieftain hereafter to take his own course.
The country may safely offer congratulations
on the event.

DANIEL S. DICKINSON ON PEAcE.-In the
course of lengthy and patriotic address de-
hvered before the literary societies of Am
herst College, Massachusetts,, on the 10th of
last month, Daniel S. Dickinson talked to
the seceders as follows:
You desire peace Then lay down your
arms and you will have it. 1t was peace
when you took them up, it will be peace when
you lay them down. 1t will be peace when
you abandon the war and return to your ac-
customed pursuits. Honorable, enduring,
pacific relations will be found in complete
obedience to the provisions of the Constitu-
ton, and not in its violation or destruction
The Government is sustained by the people
not for the purpose of coercing States in theiI
domestic policy; not for the purpose OF
crushing members of the Confederacy be-
cause they fail to conform to Federal
standard not for the purpose of despoiling
their people, and least of all, not for the pur-
pose of disturbing, or in any degree interfer-
ing with the system of Southern servitude
but for the sole and only purpose of putting
down an unholy armed rebellion, which has
defied the authority of the Government, and
seeks its destruction, and in this their deter
mination is taken with resolution, compa-
red with which the edicts of the Medes and
Persians were yielding and temporary
When the Government of our fathers shall be
again e-organized when the Constitution
and the laws, to which every citizen owes
allegiance, shall be observed and obeyed !;
then will the armies of the Constitution and
the Union disband, by common impulse, in
obedience to a unanimous popular viii.

COL CoRcoRAN-This officer is prisoner
in the hands of the Confederates, and was at
last accounts in Richmond. As the leader of
the gallant 69th he eminently distinguished
himself at Bulls Run, and the regiment that
he commas has had the satisfaction Of
doing their whole duty to the country OF
their adoption. The loss to the public service
of this officer is very great, and an effort is
being made by Hon. B. Wood to proceed to
Richmond and obtain his release and that of
Mr.. Ely, who was also captured on the occa-
sion. We hope the effort will be successful,
though from last accounts we infer that no
exchange of prisoners will be made.

TIE SOUTHERN COMMISSIONERS IN EuRopE

THE SOUTHERN COMMISSIONERS IN EUROPE.
The Paris correspondent of the New York
Times, in his letter of June 25th, says: II
have just been informed that the agents of
the Southern Confederacy at Paris have for
mally made a proposition in writingto young
Captain Bonaparte, formerly of Baltimore,
to accept the position of Military Dictator to
the Southern Confoderacy, with crown at
his disposal whenever he may think it neces-
sary to assume the dignity. If anything
were wanting to prove the moral and politi-
cal degradation into which the politicians of
the slave States have fallen, surely this last
effort furnishes the coup de grace. When any
considerable portion of great country has
fallen as low as this in the scale of morality,
a little of the purifying influence ofthe sword,
independed of any question of secession or
slavery, will do no harm. Fortunately for
him, Captain Bonaparte (as well as his
grandmother, Madam Patterson Bonaparte)
goes for the Union, and the Captain refused
the unclean and unnatural proposition in the
most decided way.

BETTER than no reason, was the one giver

BETTER than no reason, was the one given
by a German friend of ours, the other day,
for liking Conness. He was conversing with a
Confed. and closed in about these words:
g was always Democrat; and mean to
always be one have sworn to sustain the
Constitution, and it says the States shall all
respect it. Some States refuse to do that,
and you say they have a right to. The 4th
of July Convention says the law must be en-
forced in all the States. believe that is
right. Conncss says it is right, and shall
vote for him. didn't like him much, till
saw how you secessionists hate him. think
now he must be a good man. l can support
him without being afraid of violating my
oath of allegiance to the Government"
Naturalized citizens give the secessionists
some heavy shots.

DEMOCRATIC VoLUNTEERs.-A newspaper
correspondent, writing from camp in Madi-
son, Wisconsin, says:
In looking through the camp, just for the
fun of the thing, and for my own qualification,
| find that more than seven ghts of the
volunteers are straight out and out Douglas
Democrats, sound to the core. This speaks
we'll for the position of the Democratic party,
and makes one feel proud that he belongs to
party whose love of country leads them to
give up the comforts of life for the discom-
forts of the camp, that -merican flag may
be protected.

CoNNEss AND THE BULLErIN.-Itis beginning
to be believed, says the S. F. Journal, that
the secessionists have paid the Bulletin to
hound Conness-perhaps the Republicans
have contributed to the fund. Personal
pique could hardly induce SO much vitupera-
tue enterprise with money making journal.
Edgerton, who made the most terrific denun-
citation of the Bulletin, is permitted to escape
the floodings of its calumny, while all the
bottles of its dirty water are poured out on
Conness. Undoubtedly, the potent agent Of
s is at the bottom of the affair."

Bulletin to throw ridicule and contempt on
Northern men can be found. Many persons
thought that they could see an exultant tone
