The Signs Of the Times.

The Signs Of the Times.
The late news from the North would indi-
cate either letting down of the rigid censor
ship of the LINCOLN tyranny over the press,
or a determination to give some utterance to
sentiments that ought to have seen the light
ever since the monster and his cabinet had
control at Washington. The Newark (N.J.)
Journal has an article, wonderful for that lati-
tude, and showing difference of opinion from
the views reaching us heretofore. In the close
he says:
"Now, the question is, will you wait until
war of years has prsstratcd every interest," dcs-
troycd sixth part of your population, and
made waste and desolation of the North, or
will you demand peace now? Is the freedom
of the negro of more Importance than that of
the white man? If so, clamor for war. Are
the groans of the wounded moro musical to
the ring of the hammer? Then camor for
war; DO you desire an incubus of taxation
that shall make you and your remotcst poster
ity "hcwcrs of wood and drawers of water' to
the Federal Government? Then clamor for
war; Do you desire to sec this Confederate
Government transformed into vast centralized
military dcspotism? Then clamor for war;
Do you want to witness the final wreck Of
OF all the glories of the past, and our hopes
for the future2 Then clamor for war"
The freedom Of speech vindcatcd in Boston
in behalf of The GoRDoN's, for hurrahing for
JEFF. DAVIS, by one SENNorT, is picture of
the Northern Government, of SEWARD and
SUMNER, and the lights and shadows of New
England society, at tue present day, which
must satisfy our Southern men that separation
from such mass of corruption took place none
too soon. His appeal seems to have satisfied
the authorities before whom the case was tried,
and the" were allowed to go free from the tor
lures of the rack On the other hand-in the
grand conservative city of New York, and the
city of brothcrly lovc-scttled by WIN. PENN
their cry is still for war; they sec the hopes
of their gain is about to 60 from their avari-
cious grasp. They fairly gnash their teeth with
rage, and say this rebellion must and shall be
put down. 1t may be the time is not far dis
tant when that modern Sodom's measure of
niquity may be full - Notwithstanding her
great wealth and commercial Importance
IchaLo od may be written in the history of New
York.

FmEMEN's VIsIT.-Ocean Engine Compa-
ny, No 3, of Springfield, accompanied by the
Westfeld Brass Band, made a visit to this
city, yesterday. They arrived by the morn
ing train, conductor Parker's, and were met
at the depot by Yankee Engine Company, No.
., of this city, by whom they were escorted to
their hall, on Myrtle street. From thence
they marched and countemarched through
Main street. AT about three o'clock both
companies, with invited guests, took dinner at
the Lincoln House, the Springfield company
being the guests of their Worcester brethren
on the occasion. Capt. f. w. Townsend, fore
man of the Yankees, presided at the table,
and there was right good social time gener-
ally.
After trial of engines on the common, the
| Ocean boys having brought theirs with them,
the latter were escorted to the depot, and left
for home by the six o'clock train. 1t was a
very pleasant excursion, and apparently well
enjoyed all round.

The PROTECTION OF TIE REBEL LEES
PRoPERTY.-The president has ordered the
White House on the Pamunkey, with its
grounds, belonging to Col Lee OF the rebel
army, which have been hitherto scrupulously
guarded from intrusion, to be used for hospi
tai purposes. Lieut.. Horace Green. president
OF the New York Medical Society. with ].
Burns, and Lemuel Wetmore OF the New
England Soldiers Relief Association. who left
the peninsula Sunday, called upon the presi-
dent and secretary of war on Monday and
represented to them the gross injustice which
was being done. They said that the only
pure water in the vicinity was spring upon
Col. Lees premises, which, with the rest of
the property, was tabooed to our sick and
wounded soldiers. The report is that it came
out IN the course of conversation that one of
the reasons given for the course pur-
sued was, that it was in compliance
with promise, made years ago, to
Col. Lee by Gen. Mcclellan, that if they
should ever be opposed in war the properly
of each should be respected by the other.
The president was convinced by the state
mentS of DIR. Green, and declared that Gen.
McClelan's promise did not bind him 1.-THE
PRESIDENT and he would break it, He there
tore sanctioned an order signed by secretary
Stanton, directing the guards to be removed
from the White House, and the premises to be
put at the disposal of the surgeons. Mr..
Burns was deputcd to take the order to the
peninsula. All the correspondence between
the war department and Gen Mcclellan. with
relation to this subject will soon be made nub-
lie, thanks to Mr.. Potter of Wisconsin
whose resolution of inquiry was adopted nv
the house Monday, and to Messrs. Dawes and
Sedgewlck, who supported him, by relating
what they had seen on the peninsula.

More Fighting near Charleston - Its
Speedy Fall Predicted.

THE FIGHT ON THE TENTH.
PORT ROYAL, June 12.-Our latest informa-
ton from the division advancing towards
Charleston is to the following effect On
Tuesday afternoon the 9th PENNSYLVANIA,
47th New York, and two companies of the 9th
Connecticut, were attacked at point distant
three miles from Gen. Stevens position, by a
large force of rebels. The fight was warmly
contested for over two hours, and ended with
the 9ut of tbs FS3s EA a 9a as S. o MSTSded
The killed were buried by our troops. Our
loss was 3 of the 9th killed and 10 wounded.
The action is represented as having been
close, but our boys fought like heroes The
next day an attack was made on battery sit
uate half-mile in advance of the ground con-
tested as above. The Sth Michigan and 18th
New York charged upon the rebels in gallant
style, drove them from their works, captured
three Of the guns, and destroyed the remain
ing one. Our troops behaved noblv. The
generals in command speak in tlattering terms
Of their daring Among the prisoners cap
tured are some officers who have Just arrived
at Hilton Head. They tell me that we must
fight every inch of our way to Charleston

Huron HEAD, June 13.-The expedition

who shall be namelesS, got up fine alarm
Three thousand rebels had landed on Ladies
and Port Royal islands, and were marching
on Beaufort. Beaufort was depopulated in
double-quick time; civilians were armed. eX-
ira guards placed, reinforcements ordered
from other points, to support the colonel
aforesaid, and matters generally wore a san
culinary look But the rebels did not come
why, we don't know; but shrewdly suspect
they were engaged elsewhere on more impor-
tant business. A gunboat reconnaissance
elected the information that we had been treat
ed to scare of the largest size without rea-
son. The responsibility rests with one who is
not equal to emergencies, and most likely his
case will receive the attention of the COM
handing general very soon.
Gen. Hunter has returned from Charleston.
Gen. Benham remains there in command.
Matters will remain quiet for the develop
ment Of certain plans. The commanding
general is perfect master of the situation and
the fall Of Charleston qciH become matter of
history ceTy soon. In the skirmishing that
has taken place on James Island our troops
have shown themselves staunch fighting men.
The Massachusetts 2Sth here received its
baptism Of fire., and it nobly sustained the
honor Of the old Bay State"
The colored regiment IS not disbanded and
present circumstances indicate that it will not
be. A company is detailed each day to work
on the pier in loading and unloading vessels.
They are progressing finely, and they show
an aptitude for military manmuvres that one
would hardly expect to see.
