patriotism that they can see no difference

marching TO defend Washington from
traitors exactly upon = par with the brave

Washington to defend their country.
Republicans who fight for their country

against their country.
Only knaves or fools or towards or

afternoon Report.


Washington, May &c.
The special correspondent Of the Times
says Gen. McDowell's army sends the fol-
lowing dispatch;
Fredericksburg, May 26.
Our troops crossed the river last night,
and our lines now extend out about eight
miles on the Bowling Green road FIVE or
six miles on the telegraph and plank road.
The rebels from their posts on the hills
are, OF course, able to sec our movements,
and anticipated them. They burned the
first rail road bridge, cut about five miles,
as they retrested, and it is reported by
prisoners that another bridge between
here and Ginniss Station is burned, and
also one beyond. Two rebel regiments
were between the encampment Of two Of
our brigadcs last night, but took leave at
two o'clock this =. m.
A reconnaissance out nearly Is miles
on the plank road and 10 on the Bowling
Green road, made this a. M, BY General
Mcdowell, escorted by the Harris Light
Cavalry, discovered no rebels at all, and
no indications we're found Of their having
been in my force. / believe We could
march within ten miles Of Richmond un-
opposed. Gen. Doubleday has been APP
pointed military Governor Of the place.

This rebellion has done more damage
to the negro property Of Kentucky than
the Aholitionists have ever done, or could
do in hundred years. At the begin
ming Of the rebellion, No. hands were
worth from 81 200 to 81 400, and No. l
women from $500 to 81, 200. A few days

TreaseuaoaoAv ewals In Illinois.
The ,,&4,.is xsre right in reckoning on
the aid and comfort in some of the free
States. They we're wrong in overesG-
mating the number. influence aud pluck,
Of their fellow traitors in the North. But
encouraged by tolerance, the sympathizers
are growing holder in their reasonable
utterances. For example. the Carlin-
vile Spectator, published at cariinvillc,
Mseoupin county. Illiuois, of May l6,
has leading editorial, Of which the fol-
lowing is an extract:
eve call the special attention OF our
readers to the address of the Democratic
member of Congress from the free States
to the people Of the United States. The
sentiment contained in it look as if day
of redemption was approaching, and that
the days of ieaden aespotisn, were drawing
to close. The vulgar staggering usur-
per at Washington, who has the unblush-
ing impudence to intimate that he, and he
alone. is the Government of the United
States, may begin to take warning. This
address comes like the peal of the tocsin
and the roar Of the alsrmgun. The unity
of despotism they pledge themselves to
resist, as did our fathers with their lives,
their fortunes, and their sacred honor -
Let the Democracy come bravely up to
the move that promises to disenthrall the
country from the tyranny more odious
than Austrian despotism. This is 4
movement in the right direction, and the
only objection to it il that it does not 90
far enough"
The quicker that SPECTATORS suppressed
by some authority the better. Every
loyal man viii sustain the arrest and con-
fnement of the editor and publisher, and
the silencing Of the traitor press. The
people of Macoupin county should them
selves take the thing in hand 50 far as to
stop this instrument of treason. We
should suppose the military authorities of
this Department would take cognirance Of
the matter. when it is brought to their
notice. st Louis Democrat,
The Macoupin editor is more honest and
less ar,full than the Vallandighammers
generally. He means no more nor less
than they, but he gives more frank ex-
preston to the common sentiment and
purpose of the Vallandigham Mahonyites.

HThe one act which made the present

~The one act which made the present
Rebellion possible, was the repeal Of the
Missouri Compromise act, which gave
comparative peace to the Country for
thirty years. There was no treason how
ever in the repeal of that act, and we
doubt not it seemed to many both an expe-
dent and commendable measure Of peace.
But however that may have been the
entertainment of political sentiment
and the enactment of law ia accordance
therexith is not treason, nor does it justi-
fy treason in others.
