Democratic party at this time. Nr. Monag-
han is lifelong Democrat. We have on
ly room this morning for the following ex-
tract:
NO PEACE WITH DIsuEIoS POSSIBLE.
If there be those among you who begin
to count the cost of suppressing the rebel
lion, and to regard its suppression as a
thing impracticable; who desire and are
seeking to find that, in our condition, i'm
possible thing honorable Psdee-let me
forewarn them, they know not what they
do. Peace, aud dissolution of the Union
our fathers madel Peace, and the recog-
milton of that monstrosity, called "the Con-
federate States-n That would he but the
beginning of unending wars, or wars cod
irg only with the establishment of other
nationalities, if, unhappily, the restoration
of the old Union proved an impossibility.
In the great basin of our majestic river,
above the point where the waters, rolling
down from the western slope of your own
Alleghauies, unite with those flowing from
the base of the Rocky Mountains. there re-
side nearly ten million brave and stalwart
men, who slake their thirst and lave their
persons in the myriad fountains which join
themselves TO make up the "Father of Wa
ters." To them, all the broad acres in
"the great valley. all the tributaries OF It's
great inland sea, and the sea itself to where
II is united with the Gulf of Mexico, are a
necessity. Below the point indicated there
dwell one million people. We will not ven
ture to say they are less patriotic, less stall
wart, or less courageous than ourselves
Fain would we be their brothers. But God
and nature have made our valley one. Its
| jurisdiction must be and remain one. Let
| none rRshly dare its severance.
Think you our ten millions will permit
any million of men, or FIVE, or ten times any
million of men, to hold divided control
and goverance over any part of this majes-
tic river-the highway to the ocean and the
outer world which nature has made for us
and our posterity2 No, sir, never So
long as the mighty river upon whose shores
! write these lines flows onward to the
ocean, so long will the people of the North
west hold over it a united or supreme con.
troll.

The Evansville daily journal. [volume] (Evansville, Ia. [i.e. Ind.]) 1848-1862, 1862-02-15

Mr.. E. B. Alien, of Terre Hants, who left
Munfordsville, Ky, on Tuesday evening
last, furnishes the II Annapolis Journal with
the fact that Genera Bueil's army had adj
vanced on Bowling Green. On Monday
morning at eleven o'clock the troops began
crossing, and continuous stream poured
over till eleven at night. Over Il, 600 men
had crossed up to that hour, including. one
regiment of cavalry and five batteries Of
artillery. On Tuesday three moro batteries
were taken over, and Wednesday the brig
AIDE in which is our celebrated German
regiment, we're TO cross. The same gentIe-
man, corroborates the Information that the
rebels were evacuating Bowling Green -
The Journal doubts this, however, thinking
the rebels not likely to abandon the only
obstruction in orr way to Tennessee. But
the rebel Generals may entertain n hope of
anuihiIatipg the army under General Hall
leck in the vicinity Of Fort Henry, by a
rapid concentration of all his forces at Bow
ling Green and Columbus. Indeed we see
no other way of escape for the rebels ont of
the dilemma in which Halleek 8 sudden
movements have placed them Fhey are
compelled to stake all 90 desperate throw
Of the dice. IL the rebels abandon Bowling
Green and Columbus without q fight, their
men win become so demoraIized that the
officers viii no longer exeecise any control
over them II theY quietly relnaih in
those positions they will be outfianked,
their communications cut of, and they will
he starved into sarrendering. Tie most
fvrocious animals become tame when de-
prived of food, and we have no reason to
believe that the fre-eatsrs will prove an
exception to the rule

At the time of writing we have received
no intelligence of an attack npon Fort Don
eison. We gather from the correspondence
OF the St. Louis papers, a number Of items
offnterest in regard to the siiualion' Of
our forces and the prospect before them.
The high water which has enabled oar
gunboats 10 reach Florence, and display
our flag in Alabama, is just now the most
formidable foe Of our army on the Tonnes
see. The moat around Fort Henry has as
sumed the dimensions Of an inland sea, and
the fort itself is sn island. The narrow
neck Of land between Forts Henry and
DoneIson, is little better than quaemire,
and il is almost impossible for the army to
move. The water, however reached its
highest point on the sth, and IS nov falling.
But if the attack on the Fort is delayed, it
may be attributed to the impossible char
acter Of the roads.
Among the many incidents connected
with the ight, is the following, from the
Missouri Democrat;
A company of cavalry was stationed at
the railroad bridge twenty miles above here,
and upon the approach of the gnnboats on
Thursday evening, the Captain, with char
acteristic Sesthern bragadocio, drew up
his men in line on Lhe river baak with lie
evident intention Of blowing them out Of
water. The little rebel gunboat Dunbar
was just above the bridge, bnt as soon as
our gunboat approached, as may be i'm
azired, beat speedy retreat Intent upon
the capture Of this prize, the cavalry COM
pany was entirely overlooked, aud, as have
above stated, were bravely pllraded up be-
hind the trees ofthe river bank, with, to all
appearances, exceedingly hostile intent.
Their doHble-barrelsshad been duly loaded
with the inevitable buck-shoL and then
came the gtady-P resegst--w ben, with al
internal shrek which penetrated to the
very marrow of their bones, went whizzing
by after the Dunbar one of the Cenestoasa' 8
shells. The concluding order or he Was
never given, but " ith one universal shout
of horror, Captain and men scattered far The
woods, leaving behind them ia MANY in
stances, even their hats. Ny Informant
the keeper Of the draw bridge, Who was =
witness of the scene, still retains a. 4 tro-
ply the valiant Captains sonbrerol He
tells me that three OF The company were
drowned In Tue bAth water - t9e aflNef IN
