THE CONTINENTAL MoNrHLr.-The number
for June, which Is just received, has the follow
ing among its articles: The Constitution and
Slavery Story of Mexican Life; Red, White
and Blue; Desperation and Colonization; The
Huguensts Of Staten Islsad; Recolleotions oi
Washington Irving; 10, &c. The article
Desperation and Coloniz iton," contains q
just and vigorous analysis Of the real nature ol
the Southern rebellion and Of the measures by
which alone 1t can be put down. II shows ur
TIE folly Of what Is called reconstruction, ,
still clung TO by those engaged in the impoari-
BILE ta.k of saving the Union without doing any
damage to slavery.
We are indebted for this number to D. N
DJHb, Of that now well established institution

The CTY RAILRoAD.-Iti is known that seven
eighths OF the stock, and, Of course, the entire
control, of the Georgetown and Washington

friends and business connections (priacipally
in Philadelphia.) II Is thus in Washington
in'rest, and It Is stated that four of the seven
directors of the road are to be citiz,ns of the
District.
The charter allows thirty days for the organ.
'zH'ion Of the company, and sixty days there.
afterwards for the construction OF the road
1t Is understood that the whole time allowed
by the law will not be taken.
We anticipate, from all we can learn, the
prompt construction OF a good road, with equip
ments at least equal TO anything In the coun
try, and we hope it will prove to be as profit
able to the builders az it will be invaluable to
the public.

HEADQUARTERS DErr. OF THE GULF,
New Orleans, May Is, 1862.
As officers and soldiers Of The United States
have been subjected to repeated insults from
the women, calling themselves "lsdies, Of New
Orleans, 10 return for the most scrupulous non
interference and courtesy on our part, It is.or-
dered that hereafter, when any female shall, by
word, gesture, or movement insult or show
contempt for any officer or private Of the Uni
ted States, she shall be regarded and held liable
to be treated as q woman Of the town, plying
her vocation.
BY command Of Major General Butler:
GEORGE G. STRONG, A. A. G.
Upon the natural construction OF this order
that women behaving in a certain way shall be
liable to be punished as women Of the town, il
is not objectionable. 1t becomes so only by
an unnatural construction, suggested by pru.
riency Of imagination hardly to be looked fol

AN ISsDvERTANT ADHESION OF A

are for the city OF Nashville, where the vote for
circuit Judge stood, Bren, Union, $40; Foster,

Secessionists generally voted, the Union men
declined TO do no, ~ they regarded the election
invalid: However that may be, the number OF

This paragraph, in contrast with the habitua,
political course Of the Iatsugencer can hardly fail
to strike the public as an example of what was
described by the famous phrase Of Paine rigid
dy chance, and ,orong By system"
II 1t had been the National Republican, which
had ventured to say of Tennessee or of any

form Of saying, that the seeded region must be
governed by some authority emsnstipg from
here, until the inhabitants become sufficiently
loyal, to render II safe to remit them 10 that
sell government by their own State authorities,
which they enjoyed before this revolution. We
find no objection to the sentiment itself, al
though, If we had had the phrasing Of it, w
should have been somewhat less sweeping In
expressions, than our neIghbors. Nor do We
obj!ct to the place in which we find this senti

ical sentiments be more useful than in the col
umns ol paper, the readers of which see SC
little. We object in flnc, neither to The s.nt

have endesvorsd (perhaps awkwardly) to ex
