49, are forwarded through channels mat Tue
oarernment controls. Almost every day we re-
live reports of some brilliant and gallant feat
which the Federal soldiers have just performed,
or of some disgracefnl behavior on the part of the
Confederates, and we are usually called to cor
rect these falschoods on the following day. Dur
ing the past week these accounts have been more
absurd ard extravaGant than ever. The details
of the collision at Bonneville, Missouri, between
the State and Federal forces, they originally
reached u.s. turn out to have been purely fictitious.
Instead of the slaughter Of some two or three hun
bred State soldiers, it now appears from the OH
cial report that each side lost three or four killed,
and ten or fifteen wounded which proves that the
attacking party did not deal with Its unprepared
opponents in quite so summary way as was hrst
stated Then came the story of fight at New
Greek. in which forty Union men were said to
have disputed the advance of the Confederates
until thirty-eight of the former and a large mum.
Der of the latter were slain. But the fact is that
the 'Union' guard ran away unframed, and the
bridge they were said TO have protected was de-
stroyed. So the expedition which went from
| Cumberland 10 Romney was said to have routed
tured all their munitions Of war, whereas the
| truth is that there were only sixty-eight seces,
siouists in Romney, and these left and carried viii
them everything that was worth taking away
long before the overpowering force from Cumber
land reached its destination.
There are some other curious characteristic
about these dispatches which the adherents of tn
Administration are so ready to forward. Thu
Federal soldiers seem to display, on the mos
trivial occasions, the most astounding coolnes
and courage. Whether they eating breakfast
or digging bitches, or fording rivers, they ar
always spoken of as exhibiting the utmost gal
lantry. But on the other band, the Conederat
soldiers are continually running away, even whel
there is no reason for it. 1t is II very extraordi
nary thing, however, that the latter have he'll
every position which they have attempted to de
fend, aud that with inferior forces they hav
beaten back Mr.. LNCoLNs ships and regiments
1t is singular, too, that so few of these timid war
riors have been run down by the men who PROVED
themselves so fleet Of foot at Big Bethel ant
| Vienna.
The daily exchange. [volume] (Baltimore, Md.) 1858-1861, 1861-06-25

The Legislature adjourns over to-day until the
30h of July During its brief session it has
passed several useful laws, and it has kept faithful
watch and ward over the interests and honor of
Maryland. More than this it could not do. 1t
was powerless rescue our beleaguered State
from the thradom in which she is held, and it
was unable TO devise any sufficient measures for
her protection against the dangers which still
threaten her. But it has honestly exposed the
Iawless and aggressive character of the policy of
which she is the victim; it has sternly
protested against the unconstitutional acts
of the. Administration and its agents; and
it has showl itself ready, now, and at all
times, to discharge, fairly and courageously, the
duties which the laws and the Constitution of Ma
ryland devolve upon her representatives. As,
however, in the present situation Of affairs no
practical steps can be taken TO relieve the State of
the oppressive presence of strange troops within
her borders, to avert the prospective ruin
which hangs over her people, the Legislature has
wisely adjourned for the time to await the pro-
gress of events. The stupendous character of the
