4 Beleaguered City.

The city of Nashville is completely cut
off from all intercourse with the rest Of
mankind, by bands of rebel guerillas, who
swarm in all the surrounding country.
The people are said to be almost in state
of starvation. Beef can be obtained for
thirty cents pound, but vegetables can
hardly be had for any price. Flour was
quoted on the 23d inst, at 50 barrel
A foraging expedition sent out on the
21st, visited the plantation of Gen. &. S.
DoNELsoN, in Sumner county, who is in
the rebel service, and an adjoining farm,
getting as much subsistence as they could
bring away-indeed bringing every thing
belonging to Gen. DoNELsoN, except the
overseer and negroes, amounting to over
800 cattle, 800 sheep, 300 hogs, and tur-
keys, chickens, cts in abundance, besides
600 wagon loads of corn, oats, ETC., which
they took into Nashville in safety.

Aid for the Refugees.

Mr.. w. w. WALES writes to the Gov
ernor from Columbus, Ohio, that a meet
ing had been held in that city, and COM
mittee Of two from each ward appointed to
canvass for donations for the Minnesota
refugees. He says the people of that city
seem not only willing to help, but consider
it privilege to aid our sufferers. Thanks
are expressed that their attention has been
called to the subject, and nothing showing
a want of kind sympathy has been mani
tested by even an individual. Mr.. WALES
thinks nothing can be gained by attempt
ing to conceal the extent of the suffering
caused by the Indian raid, by covering up
the real condition of our people, and thus
shutting from them the proffered aid, and
forcing them to 60 with their sorrOwful
stories to the various States, destitute and
homeless. Mr.. WALES desires that assur-
ances may be given to this class of people
that help will be sent to them, that they
may not leave the State, and that Others
may be relieved from painful apprehen-
sions, and still others from great sacrifices
of the little property they have left. Mr..
WALES is certain as to our ability to get the
needed help.

The Surrender at Eaarperss Ferry.

General WOOD, in denying statement
that he was urgently advised by the War
Department to abandon Harper's Ferry
and concentrate all his forces on the Mary
land Heights more than ten days before
Harper's Ferry had been invested, Mary
land Heights completely commanded Har-
per's Ferry, and, being a thoroughly de-
feasible point, which the latter was not,
and that he took the responsibility of be-
lieving that the Ferry would not be at
tackled, and SO disregarded the ADVICE
replies as follows:
There is not one word of truth in the
above. Harper's Ferry could have been
defended by 10000 men, if rightly direct
ed. Colonel Miles surrendered II, 200.
The possession Of the Maryland Heights by
the enemy did not interfere with the de-
fence of Harper's Ferry. They had no
guns on the Heights that could do the
slightest injury to prevent the defence OF
the Heights Of Harper's Ferry. If Colonel
Miles had obeyed my orders, the Maryland
Heights would nothave been taken posses
sion of by the rebels

The Campaign.
country.

The National htelHgencer of last Sat-
urday, after adverting to the restlessness
in the public mind at the apparent mac
ton of our armies in front of the capital,
and the reasons therefor, which are GER
tainly conclusive, assures the public that
the Government is using every effort, and
that successfully, to place our army in a
condition to prosecute the campaign tri-
umphantly, and thinks the public may rest
satisfied that when these arrangements are
perfected there will be no dilatoriness on
the part of the Government or the Gen
erals in the field, and that when our forces
move, it will be for campaign to end
only in the suppression of armed rebellion.
There exists perfectly harmonious coop
Grafton between the civil and military de-
partments of service, and the country may
confidently expect thai each in its proper
sphere will exert every energy to prose-
cute the war to an early and successful
termination.

A Sharp Hit.

At the collation. given by the Unitarians
of Brooklyn, to their friends from abroad,
during the late Convention, Rev. DR.. Ell
LIS of Charlestown, in speech, referred
in general terms of approval to DR.. BEL
Lows address, but took exceptions to his
eulogy of Southern character, on the
ground that no amount of grace or polish
could blot out the ugly fact of their des
perate perjury. He was sick OF the word
chivalry"-a word which used to be sy-
nonymous with honor, now a substitute for
ii. AS to the destinations of Washington
society, and the tone of social intercourse
there, he would only say, that he could
recall three occasions in which he had wit
tingly and deliberately placed himself out
side the Providence of God, in situation
wherein he felt he had even no right to
pray. The first was when he had descend
ed into the crater of Vesuvius; the second,
when he entered the Mammoth Cave in
Kentucky, nine miles under ground; and

Wife Murder at WatertOVyn, Wis.

From the Watertown Democrat.
Last Thursday evening, the 10th inst,
between four and five O'Clock, Michael
Gamble, under the influence of excitement
caused by liquor, shot his wife. As near
as we can learn, the circumstances attend
ing the commission of this crime, are about
as follows: Mr.. Gamble had been to this
city on some business, and returned home
in a state of partial intoxication. He
called for his supper, and while at the
table angry words passed between him and
his wife, and dishes flew ct each Other-he
commencing it, She in return, he states,
threw tea cup back at him, hit him near
the left eye; and run into another room,
shut the door and held it. He made an
attempt to force open the door but could
not. Seeing gun, which was loaded,
standing in the room, he seized it, and
some of the neighbors say deliberately put
in another charge and fired. The contents
passed through the door into the body of
his wife. He then reloaded the gun, but
could not find the caps after searching for
them She fell and expired in the course
of fifteen minutes He was soon after ar
rested, brought before Justice Ducasse for
examination and committed to Jail to
await his trial at the next term OF the Cir
| cult Court.

8 A IN T p A u L
Executive P0wer.,,

We print on the 9Th and 9TH pages of this
paper, a pamphlet which has lately ap-
peared under this title, written by Hon.
BENJAMIN R. CURTIS, Of Boston, late a
Judge Of the Supreme Court of the United
States, and discussing several of the recent
acts of the President. The emancipation
proclamation, the succeeding proclamation
for the suppression of various disloyal
practices, and the Secretary of Wars order
for carrying out the latter, are the topics
particularly dealt with. Mr.. CURTIS dis
cusses these acts with especial reference to
the source of power from which they are
supposed to spring, and argues that they
are not authorized by the military power
of the President, to which they are usually
referred. The argument is cool, clear and
dispassionate, and the grave and earnest
tone,-a mixture of deep conviction and
unaffected patriotic feeling,-which pene-
trates the whole subject of the discussion,
makes it we'll worth the attention Of all,
whether its conclusions are accepted or not.
In revolutionary period, like the present,
recurrence to, and discussion OF, the
fundamental principles of the Government,
cannot fail of producing good results to the
country

Rebel Opinion Of Mcclellan.

The Virginia correspondent of the Mo-
bile Register excuses the sudden exit of
their army from Maryland, on various
grounds, principally from a fear that the
Potomac would suddenly rise, and leave
the army in the hands of MCCLELLAN, who
is spoken of in the following terms:
1t may not be improper to suggest here,
that the people of the Confederate States
have been led to underestimate the abili
ties of Mcclellan. In my judgment he is
incomparably the best officer in the FEEDER
al army, if not the equal of any in the
Confederate; and if he had such troops as
ours in command, the world would not be
long in finding him out. His disasters are
not Justly attributable to his lack of gen.
eralship so much as to the character of his
troops. The manner in which he conduct
ed his retreat from Richmond, and his con-
duct of affairs thus far in Maryland, are
enough to entitle him to be ranked with
the ablest commanders on either side.
Officers tell me that close inspection of
his position and works before Richmond,
and thorough examination of his move
ments from day to day, after the battle
commenced, did not disclose one solitary
mistake OF blunder on his part. He did
the best that could be done at every point,
under the circumstances, and with the ma
terial he had around him. 1t is safer to
give the enemy credit for too much ability
than too little.

The representations made in some
quarters that the public debt has reached
S2,0O0,0 100000 is great exaggeration
On the first day of the present month it
was only 100000, 900, and is now less
than $500, 100000. This amount includes
the entire circulation and every species of
notes, and between $40, 900 and $780,
OOO,OO debt of the late administration,
but excerpts claims for which no requisi-
tons have been made. The claims adius-
ted and unadjusted cannot exceed $780,
100000.

THE WEEKLY PIONEER AND DEMOCRAT.
A French View.
"Malakoff, the intelligent Paris CORES

"Malakoff," the intelligent Paris CORES
pondent of the New York Times says that
the official paper, the Monitemr, is now
publishing every three or four days, a long
New York letter, which is probably made
up in the Foreign Office, relating with great
clearness and impartiality, the history of
military and political events in the United
States These letters also contain contain
criticisms upon the conduct of the war,
which are not without interest. For ex-
ample, the last of these letters contain the
following:
We NAV draw from this examination another
lesson. not less important, which is that these
vast armies, resembling more assemblages of
men than military corps, are wanting In that
organization which in Europe forms of so many
battalons complete whOle-a solid mass which
carries with it everything which is necessary to
live and to fight, wagons for transportation,
money to buy, mechanics to prepare and repair,
tration to the depOts, arsenals and stOrehOuses
to all in fact which constitutes the base of OPP
erations. So long as the American armies fight
at home, they are strong and vigorous; the mo-
ment they move abroad they grow weak and
ineffective. Such has been the case with the
Federals when they attempted to take Rich
mond the same thing has just occurred to the
Secessionists in trying to take Washington.
The conclusion is natural, that neither OF the
adversaries possess an offensive force"
In the same letter occurs the following
criticisms on the Maryland campaign of
the Secessionists
The generals of the Southern army commit
ted four faults in this attempt in Maryland. The
first was in crossing the Potomac before taking
Harper's Ferry: the second was in dissent
mating their regiments in region so billy as is
that of Maryland; the third was in not Occu-
plying the heights of Hagerstown with force
sufficient to hold Mcclellan in check till the
divisions OF the grand army could be cOncen-
trated in the rear; and the fourth was in count
ing too much on McClellan's slowness and in
letting themselves be surprised before having
combined all their forces.
Some newspaper correspondent lately
invented the story that Mr.. LINCOLN had
invited Gems. CHANGARNIER and LAMoR1-
oIERE, the two distinguished French Gen.
erals who have retired from the army since
the accession to power of LOUIS NAPOLEON,
to accept commissions in the army Of the
United States, and the first of these Gene
rails has taken the troubleto deny the state
ment in the journals. The invention was
probably suggested by the publication of
the correspondence between the American
Cunsul at Wanna and GARIBALDI on the
subject of an acceptance by the latter of a
commission in the American army.

With regard to the recent rumOrS O.

With regard to the recent rumors of
intended changes in high military places,
the Washington Republican, Of the 2Sth,
says: Gen. Halleck will not go to the De-
partment of the West, neither will Gen.
Mcclellan be made Commander-in- Chief
Gen. Hooker, as he is by his bravery and
soldierly qualities entitled to, will have
an important command.

The New York Times has the follow
ing about the late battle at POcataligO, be-
tween Charleston and Savannah

Instead of the rebels gaining a victory over
our troops, we defeated them in the very hard
fought engagement which took that place a
week ago to-day, drove them from both their
chosen positions, and compelling them to re-
treat in haste across the Pocataligo river, at
which point they destroyed the bridge in their
rear to prevent further pursuit.
Although General Mitchell did not succeed in
CARRYING out the magnificent programme which
he had conceived, he did make complete re-
connoissance of the region between the Island
on Port Royal and ON the Charleston railroad,
and administered to the rebels thorough chas-
tisement
