The attack on the Ohio troops under Gen.
Schenek was made by two guns Of the Alexan

fired nineteen cases of grape, and fourteen round
shot, doing no damage except by the first two
discharges, The guns were remotely support
ed by five hundred men of the First South
Carolina Regiment, under Colonel Gregg, who
bad been out on scouting expedition toward
Vienna. Col Gregg's command was in ad

through high bluffs, on each side OF which the

by ieint as if intending to pass around the

fifty yards from his position, when by a rapid
movement Of his artillery, he poured heavy
cross fire OF canister into their ranks, at the

captured, 62 shot guns, and a number Of revol

The Value OF Comnrom,ses.

The history OF the world shows that most OF
the wars that desolated the world might have
been avoided by little mutual concession be-
fore any serious difficulty had occurred. The
present war might have been avoided had the
same spirit actuated the members of the last
Congress as influenced the patriots who made
our Constitution. We heard the same cry then
from the mon. .compromisers" that we hear
now against peaceable adjustment. To show
how HENRY CLAY regarded Compromises, We
republish some remarks Of his in the Senate,
April s, 1850. He then said:
"There are, no doubt, many men who are
very wise in their own estimation, who will re
ject all propositions Of compromise, but that is
no reason why compromise should not be at
tempted to be made. | go for honorable COM
promise whenever it can be made. Life itself
is but a compromise, between death and life. the
struggle continuing throughout our whole eXls-
tence, until the great Destroyer finally tri'
umphs. All legislation, all government, all So
ciety is formed upon the principle OF mutual
concession, poteness, county, courtesy; upon
these everything is based. bow to you to, day
because you bow to me. You are respectful to
me because am respectful to you Conpro,
mise is peculiarly appropriate among the mem
bers ofa Republic, as ofone common family
Compromises have this recommendation, that
if you concede anything you have something
conceded to you in return. Treaties are com
promises made with foreign powers contrary to
what is done in case like this. Here if you
concede anything it is to your own brethren, to
your own famly. Let him who eevates him
self above humanity, above its weaknesses, its
infirmities, its wants its necessities, say If he
please never will compromise, but let no one
who is not above the frailties Of our common
nature disdaiu compromise"
The country is now divided-trade and COM
merce ruined-manufactories and workshops
closed Immense armies in the field, to engage
in deadly fraternal strife, and a demand made
on the people for loan of four hundred millions
of dolars-and all for the want OF little

adjustment, a quarrel among BRETHREN

The Plan of the Administration A 10
Avoid "a war with Franc and
England.

One of the most serious views of the future
connected with the war has been the prospect
Of ascosion with France and England, grow
ing out OIL their necessities for cotton. The Gov
ernment has hit upon plan to avoid the Diff
Guilty by WHICH our character will be saved un-
der the blockade, and France and England get
all the cotton they want. 1t is developed by
the Philadelphia Inquirer, and amounts to this:
GAS the season advances, and the cotton and
tobacco crops ripen, the armies of the Republic
will advance steadily southwark. Richmond
will be ours before the 1st of August, and be.
fore that time also the rebel hordes of Johnston
and Wise will be driven back before the victo
rious arms of Patterson and Mcclellan. Then
General Fremont, having swept out the last
vestage Of secession from Miss ouri, will JON
his forces to those of Prentice at Cairo, and
marching on Memphis will take that important
stronghold. Even j. the military operations go
no further, this will be enough to accomplish
the purpose With Richmond and Memphis
both occupied and with Tennessee and North
Carolina in our possession, we shall have all that
will be necessary to give the desired dire ction
TO the incoming crops.
"rhe cotton and tobacco Of the South will be
sent to Richmond and Memphis. Thence to
Cincinnati, Baltimore, Philadelphia and New
York. And in the markets of the last three
cities the commerce Of Europe can be transacted.
Thus these vexed questions OF blockade and of
the supply OF cotton disappear at once. II Eng
land and France can get their cotton, it is a
matter of indifference to them where they buy
it; and the harbors OF New York, Philadelphia
and Baltimore are as convenient to them as
those of Mobile, Charleston and Savannah"
That ought to be satisfactory to France aud
England certainly, if all they want is cotton
simply, which we are assured is really the case.
The difficulty is in accomplishing all the prlimi-
nareS by the time the cotton is ready for market.
The plan looks we'll on paper and under its op.
erations as there viewed the vexed questions Of
blockade and Of supply OF cotton disappear at
once. If it will only work in practice, we will
be rid Of some ugly foreign complications. - En-

There are but few small debts otherwise due.
These Shall endeaV0r to meet as soon as DOS

than the same true and tried devotion to his
