Cleveland Leader discussing the propriety Of
continuing the Union organization, has the fol-
lowing: a... ...f.
"What our two brOtherly neighbors viii do
remains TO be seen. Flaugher will as matter
of course favor fusion; Keeler will probably fol-
low in the wake Of the Leader FUo ahead"
We shall proceed to relieve the anxiety of our
neighbor over the way at once. "Keeler" is in
favor Of fusion first, last and all the time, dur
ing the continuance of this war He is in favor
of fusion of all honest men to put down the
rebellion and to restore the Union to the condi.
tion in which it was before the Pierees Buchan
ans, JEFF. Davises, Mobiles, &c., got possession
of it, or as near to that condition as is consist

people. He is in favor Of a sfusion" that viii

era beside the $4,000 nigger drivers have ar
interest in the Government and have a right t.
participate IN making its laws.
The Union movement was in the main sue
cessfui last fall The State officers elected have
90 far as We know, faithfully discharged thei
duties to the State and TO the country. In thi
county, with a single exception, the gentlemen
elected to fill the various offices, have adheret
to the cause of the Country, and recognized
their obligntiOnstO the people whoelected them
They are evidently what they profess to be, tru
Union men, and scorn all affiliatiOn with traitor
or their sympathisers.
Now and then, throughout the State, as in th
cases Of our Representative, and the Represen
tatives in Cuyaboga county, sneak and Ju.

Judas among the apostles, and there were trait.
ors in Heaven. But because few have proved
false, and cried Lord Lordl when they meant
Gatani Satan il cannot be used as an argu-
Inent against confluence Of the Union party.
II is to be expected that bad and unprineipled

when Il il supposed that such organisations viii
elevate them TO power. But the days of ;
sneak are short, and they soon sink into ute
obscurity
Then, we trust the Union party, not only il

country requires it. No one party can save the
country, hence the necessity for the Union Or

From Gen. Fremont's Column.

WINoHEsTER, Juno 2l.--One of the
leaders Of the "Jessie Scouts" who has just
arrived from the advance, states that
marching orders have been issued by Gen
Fremont for still further retrograde move.

former point, he will be obliged to throw q
heavy force to hold the Front Royal road
at point parallel to his position; while, by
occupying Winchester, he holds the key to
both villages. 1t is confidently believed
that Jackson is at Luray.
Winchester, with the force Fremont has
at present under his command, will be i'm
pregnable, unless the enemy has siege gun:
with which to fire the city.

The whereabouts Of Jackson is the sub

speaking, The friends Of Mcclellan insist
that he has gone back 10 Richmond, and
that, IN consequences, Mcclellan Is in i'm.

down The valley Of the Shenandoah with
the intention Of eemiog over 10 Baltimore.
Both Fremont and Banks are of this opin-

Opening tho rIissIssippI.

A letter from on board U. s. steamship
Mississippi, dated off New Orleans, June
10th, says, Com. Farragut, aided BY the
Mortar fotila, is going up to capture Vicks-
burg and open mp the Mississippi river. '-
A letter To the Milwaukee Sentinel, da-
ted "Of Vicksburg, Miss, May le, 1862"
gives an account of the trip up to Vicks-
burg. The feet left New Orleans on the
9Th. There were six companies of Wis
consin, aud seven of a Michigan regiment
on board. About thirty miles above the
city the forces disembarked and marched
five miles through swamp to the N. O.,
Jackson and g. N. Railroad, considerable
distance of which, including bridge, they
destroyed. Several batteries erected on
the banks Of Lake Ponchartran were pass
cd by our troops, but the guns had been
spiked and the carriages burned. Having
burned the bridge across Lake Mauripas
and captured number of prisoners, the
troops returned TO the river without loss,
and again pushed on toward Vicksburg.-
The letter says: s
"At Baton Rouge we overlook the gun
boats, six in all. The next day 1.-THE 5th)
We started up the river, in company with
the feet, for Natchez. On our arrival we
landed opposite the city--it having sur
rendered-and spent the night. We arc
now four miles below Vicksburg, in com.
pany with the feet. It's said the city is
guarded by two or three batteries.
"We baye some fine Examinations every
night, the people being engaged in burn
ing cotton. Think, however, they do this
only by halves, reserving large portion Of
il. II they really do burn all, pity them,
for they will starve before they can raise
another crop. They are all suffering now
Tor the want Of food, and in thirty days the
North will have to send them provisions,
AS il formerly did tho Irish.
"The health Of the Wisconsin boys is
generally good. They stand the climate
well-mueh better than anticipated"
A rumor was in circulation at Cairo on
the goth, that there bad been a terrible
hattie at Vicksburg, in which the rebel gun
boat Arkansas sunk the Brooklyn, and was
lying under the guns Of the upper battery,
while the lower one had been sileuced by
the Federal feet. The city was said to
have been burned. The report was regard
ed as improbable. ~ 'iet

tlement thirty miles north Of this city, aud

number, disgusted with the imposition, at
tempted to leave, but were arrested and
placed in confinement, heavily armed. A
writ OF habeas corpus was issued by Chief
Justice Kinney, which was treated with
contempt. Sufficient time having elapsed
for the production Of the prisoners, second

of Morris for contempt, and for the arrest of
the leaders Of the gang for false imprison-
ment was issued for execution there. A

From Gen. Halleolr's ColuInn.

CoRINTH, June 2O.-A force from Sher-
mans command occupied Holly Springs,
aud destroyed several pieces Of tressel work
on the Mississippi Central Railroad. The
macbiucsy for repairing and manufacturing
arms was removed from Holly Springs to
Atlanta, Ga, previous TO evacuating.
CoRINTH, June 21-Iu response to Cen
eral Halleck's call, large amounts Of provis-
ions have been received from ST. Louis for
the suffering Mississippiaus, aud distribated
literally among the inhabitants, who were
gratifed.
The railroad is now open TO about eight
miles from Grand Janction, and it is expect
ed viii be open TO Columbus and Memphis
by the 25lh.
AT Headquarters there has been received
official notice Of the evacuation Of Cumber-
land Gap by the rebels, and the occupation
thereof by the Federals.
Deserters state that Beauregard turned
over his command to Bragg and went Easl
without troops.
The rebels are taking up rails north o.
Jepello and carrying them south TO com
pleie the road from Meriden TO Uniontown
Contrabauds say no troops have beer
sent East, and there is no intention Of send
ing any thither.
CoRINTH, June 22.-It is now positively
ascertained that Beauregard turned owe
his command to Bragg on the 18th anC
left for Montgomery, where he arrived OF
the 18th, accompanied only by his persona
staff, and left for Richmond. There ar,
two reports received here stating the cause
of his departure; one that he goes east tc
take command; another that he goes tbeF'
to explain the evacuation Of Corinth. Th'
latter is considered most probable, as It il
known that for some time Beauregard anC
jeff Davis are on antagonistic terms.

The blunder at Port Republic which
