PUBLIC OPINION.

Mr.. Russell the intelligent and able Crilnean
correspondent Of The Times (LondOn) was here
in bis professional capacity FIVE or SIX weeks
ago. Forthwith, be was surrounded and taken
captive by the clique known as Fifth-Avenue
Democrats and kept as secluded as possible from
intercourse with others. Mr.. Russell of course
wrote home what everybOdy-that is, the two
dozen aforesaid-told him; namely, that we were
all quite Indifferent to the progress and prospects
of the jeff Davis Rebellion. but perfectly ABB
sorbed in our intense hostility to the Morrill,

saw and heard; but had be been shut up in an
underground dungeon during his stay here, and

Transporting without from the columns OF The
Herald, he could not have been more oom-
pletely deceived and misguided When he
reached Washington, he broke out Of the limbo
which environed him here, and wrote far more
ucidly; but, passing thence into The Davis king
dom, he ia doubtless there allowed to see mainly
what the conspirators would have seen. We ex-
pect, therefore, to be soon in receipt of his let
ters announcing that the Union is forever ended
and that JEFF. will soon issue his edIcts from the
White House, vice Lincoln, gone up. But In
little while Mr.. r. will emerge into the light
and liberty of the Great West, where he will
speedily discover that the Union is neither gone
nor going and that the struggle for its destruc-
ton or preservation has hardly yet begun.
Clever man as he is, he will be wiser when he

the cash, and went on their way rejoicing. The

THE LATEST WAR NEWS:

II is supposed that Gen. Mansfield will have
command of the active operations Of the Union
forces at Washington. The troops there are
now so stationed that in a few hours 10. 900 men
can be thrown across the Potomac in case Of the
approach of the Rebels. But unless an attack is
menaced, the advance into Virginia will not
probably be made until full preparations have
rendered success az certain as possible.
The Rhode Island regiment, it is said, Is to be
ordered to take possession Of Arlington Heights
or of Alexandria. An agent Of our Washington
correspondent visited the latter city yesterday,
and reports that there are about $50 Rebel troops
there. The number of United States troops in
Washington and its vicinity cannot be much less
than 81 900. We learn nothing certain yet Of
the amount of the rebel forces in Richmond, but
it is undoubtedly considerable.
The United States troops that passed through
Baltimore on Wednesday were notupnly unmo.
lested but were well received by the people.
The road through that city may therefore be
considered as practically open.
A picket guard at Camp Butler, at the Relay
House, was fred upon yesterday by party Of
about fifty mounted rebels, and returned the fire
when the assailants fed. No one was hurt. The
famous Baltimore steam gun was captured yes
terday by the vigilant Massachusetts, troops at
the Relay House as it was being conveyed to tho
rebel camp at Harpers Ferry. The men in
charge Of 1t were sent prisoners to Annapolis.
We have also q report that serious outbreak
was expected to take place at Frederick, Mary.
land, and that Gov. Hicks had called on the
President for aid.
The reported occupation Of the Maryland side
Of the Potomac at Harper's Ferry by Virginia
troops, is not yet authenticated. If the rebels
are really in possession of the hights on the
north bank of the river, it will be difficult TO
dislodge them. The position ia an unusually
strong one.
At the place called the Point Of Rocks on the
Potomac, ten miles from Frederick, thcre 10 .
force of about 400 yirginians, who stop and eI-
anime the trains on the Baltimore and Ohio
Railroad. All these movements indicate de.
sign TO attack Washington in the rear.
There are nearly 5000 volunteers concentrated
at Elmira in this State, waiting orders from
headquarters.
From Fort Pickens the news received yester.
day was very satisfactory. The fort has On
ample garrison Of LOO men, and has been 50
strengthened that il may DO considered impreg-
nsbls to any force that the Rebels can bring
against it. Gen. Bragg has about 5000 mon at
Pensacola, but they are poorly eQsiPpcd. and are
suffering from wsat Of supplies. Meantime, dis
sensions have already broken out among them.

LET TMR CITIZEN sOLDIERY SAVE
THE RBPUBLICi

AT tho risk OF being accused OF n0etuIy 10 too
Administration by the venal crew that seek to
commend themselves to favor and Jobs by su-
perserviceable zeal in its defepss, we once more
plead for the prompt and hearty acceptance By the
Government Of cvery full, Efficient regiment that
asks the privilege Of striking Nop for The Union.
We utterly distrust the expediency Of attempt
ing at this time to make large addition to the
line of the regular army. Increase the staff a.
much ss you please, but do moi absorb all the
best material for officers in the country in regi-
ments which il will take precious time to fll up,
when those officers are pressiDgly wanted to
drill and lead tho Volunteers who passion
ately plead for permission TO fight for and save
the Union. This State alone will send Fifty
Thousand Volunteers into the field forthwith if
the Government will only take them, and Fifty
Thousand more if it will only cay it wants them;
and every other Free State is ready to do as
well in proportion, il not better Is it wise to
reject efficient men who want to 60 as Volun-
teers-not for three months, but for the War
in the hopo of driving men into the reg
ular army which comparatively no ono
wants TO enter' The American People want
TO make this fight themselves-want TO put forth
all their strength and finish it up. and then re-
turn to their farms and their shops; and we In
sist that their instinct is wiser than anybody's
military traditions. Here is almost every State
calling out regiments that the Government hest
tates to accept; here are our Irish, German,
British, Hungarian and other fellow citizens,
pleading by thousands for q chance to strike
blow for the Union and it's starry flag; and We
insist that it is bad policy and false economy to
refuse single well-6lled regiment till tho back
of Secession shall be broken. Limit the cost of
outfit and preparation il you will; say If you
willy that $50 per man shall arm, equip and put
each regiment in the field ready for service; but
let every stout heart and strong arm have its
coveted opportunity, snd let the war DO finished
at the earliest moment. The country can better
afford to keep Half Million men IN the field
year than One Hundred Thousand for three
years. And were there Two Hundred thousand
men at Washington ready to enter Virginia To-
day, prepared to march on Richmond and
Raleigh forthwith, the struggle would be virtually
over and any great efusion Of blood precluded.
Mind that we blame no one for what has been.
aud fully comprehend that the formation OF
great, effective army out Of raw leyies 10 work
of time We urge no advance till all is ready.
and would have no blow struck till it is certain
to tell. We only entreat the Governments to
leave the question Of expandi7s tho regular army
10 calmer moment, accept all tho volunteers
that are ready 10 sec the thing out arm, equip,
and drill them as rapidly as may be, and let the
People have tho credit Of putting down the JEFF.
Davis conspiracy. Only give them fair chance,
and they will deserve it.

MORnRCAr.

Maj. Mordecai, of the Ordnance, has been
pet Of the service, getting good pay for mod.
erats work. In 1855, he was sent TO the Or.
mea, on full pay and allowances, to observe the
siege Of Sevastopol and report thereon-a duty
which any officer In the army would have been
very glad to take of his hands He hes recently
been in charge of the Watervliet Arsenal-nos A
very hard berth, one would say. This post 10
has abandoned, resigning his commission, fer
these reasons:
"Ksny imsnes hs, could perssvsrs for On ndean.s
time In forwarding wsks preparations which were inteadsi
to be used against the hoss Of mother brothers. and
relatives In the South. he gives much credit To-
philosophy Other persons viii not be surprised thu, have
the only left avoid this ISSUE By reguns
my commission in the army and retiring TO private Life"
Maj. Mordecai knows thoroughly that tho Gov.
eminent will harm no person who does not en-.
gage in the atrocous conspiracy TO overthrow il.
The Government is fighting for its life, against Q
rebellion which avows it's purpose to dismember
and destroy the Republic. The attitude Of the
Government is purely defensive, and it has for.
borne to resist armed, rampent aggressive 70.
belliOn until half its fortresses and arsenals have
been seized, its treasure stolen, its revenues d.
verted, its arms captured, and its soldiers bonn
barded and roasted with red-hot balls in their
classmates. All this eyokes no word Of symps-
thy from Maj Mordeca; but, the moment the
Government prepares to strike back, he fears bis
mother will get hurt, and resigns
II is hardly probable that the Government win
think it important to apply discipline to this 10
triug though not modest soldier. But his Life
must be very private indeed not to subject him
to elevation on a social pilory as high as the
eallows which Haman erected for his namessks
Of old, that Mordecai who was respectable, and
declined not to cooperate in hostties" sgaina
the enemies Of his country.
