AFFIRs ABOUT PENsAcoLA.-From a
private letter dated 24th instant, which we
have just received from Warrenton, Fla ,
we have some information concerning the
state of affairs about Pensacola:
1t has been ascertained by our forces at
Pollard that 5000 of the Yankee soldiers
have been removed from Pensacola, but to
what point is not known. Scouts have been
constantly sent out, and they report no su.
perior force of the enemy on the main land.
One expedition towards Pensacola resulted
in the capture of bacon enough for ten days
rations to all our forces in that section.
Two Yankee prisoners were captured AID
brought 10 on the night of the 23d.' Ne
groes are daily making their escape to the
enemy's lines despite the utmost vigilance
of our forces. On the night of the 22nd,
FIVE ran away from Pollard, and no amount
of search has been able to discover them.
They, of course, carry all the information
they are able to obtain and remember.
A soldier was captured few days ago,
by our scouts on the Escambia River, who
represents himself as a deserter from But.
lers' command. He belongs to Massa-
chusetts regiment; he represents the dis
affection as great among his fellow soldiers
concerning Linooln's emancipation procla-
nation. They did not come South to fight
for negroes, but for the Constitution and
the whole Union, and are loud in their de-
nunciations of the Abolition fanatics.

The Immunitie, Of Slavery.

The Senate has refused by decisive vote 10
tax Shareholders for their slaves. We believe
cotton has thus far also been excluded from this
bill. Vario0s excuses are given Tor thus saving
what constitutes the chief wealth OF the South
from paying taxes. The Border State men, and
the Democrats vote against all such measures
because they are " Abolition measures -
Northern sympathizers with Slavery vote in the
same way Tor similar reasons Republicans vote
against them because they deem them inexped-
lent, or unconstitutional, and 50 in one way and
another, for different reasons Slavery escapes
the punishment that the people would yisi lpon
it.
1t may be unconstitutional to tax master
TWO dollars for every slave be owns, and at the
same time tax every man who carries watch
or owns Il carriage that or a larger sum loi
those articles of propcrty,--we don't argue thu
constitutional point--but We are well satisfied
that If 1t can be done in this way it should b.
done IN some other way We have shown beior
that the indirect tax would be much heayie
proportonatcly upon the North than upon tn
South, and have argued that the only tru
method of taxation was upon property, as take
are raised chiefly in this State and when tn
loyal States are compelled to pay three fourth
or more OF the hundred millions indirect tax i
consequence of this war brought on by slavery
they will begin to see the force Of the argument
that would make Slavery bear at least its shar
OF the burden.

The President Taking the Responsibility

1t it's beginning to be apparent that Aprahah
Lincoln is President of the United States, and
means to remain so His message, approprla-
ting to himself the censure Of the House OF the
conduct OF Secretary Cameron, Is direct hint
that the President does not allow his Cabnes to
do acts Of which he dsapproves. lie has not
at any time, hesllated to dsayow unauthorized
acts Of Generals, like Fremont; and Hunters
and to make his Cabinet at once conform to his
own views, as in the case Of Secretary Came
ron report at the opening OF the present Con
gress All these acts show that Mr.. Lincoln u
the head Of the government, and knows ana
controls It's executive movements. Would
it be as well for those who are camorng Tor
Secretary Stanton's removal to take tins TACT
into account and to understand that General
Shields troops could not have been ordered
away from Gen. Banks except by the command
OF the President Of course the President
knew all about it, and was fully aware OF the
necessity for it, whatever that was and every
attack upon Secretary Stanton IN consequence OF
that movement is an attack upon the President.
We are aware that there is an Intense bate OF
Secretary Stanton IN certain quarters, tor what
reason il best known to those who cherish the
passion, but we hope they will select some act
of the Secretary's for which the President snot
equally responsible as their ground of attack,or
have the manliness to charge the blame upon
the President equally with his Secretary. Abra-
ham Lincoln is President and Commander-ln-
Chief and those who are charging the disas ter
to Banks force upon Secretary Stanton are in
fact charging it upon the President, and the very
fact that these denunciations are hurled at the
Secretary by those who know that Mr.. Linconis
alike responsible, is the strongest evidence that
they have their origin more in some spite against
che man, than in any just Indignation on ac-
connt Of the misfortune 10 our arms.

The Military and the Civil Authorities at
Issue IN Washington

The telegraph has brought US many items re-
lutng TO the conflict Of Gen. Wadswurth and
Marsbal Lannon's Jurisdictions At Washington,
in the matter Of the arrest and rendition Of lu-
gitiyc saves. We regret that there should be
any occasion for such disturbances bnt We GER
tanly cannot countenauce any violent, unlawful
interference Of The military powers with due
process Of law II the law is wrong let Con
gress remedy that at once, and in the meantime
let the alleged iugitlyes have the best defence
the civil power permits them to have. But let
them not be violently freed IN defiance OF law
when the safety of the Union does not require
it. The anchor Of our safety az free people is
in the lust subordination o, the military to the
evil power, and those who are seeking to make
this whole Republic free should not give the
least encouragement TO military interference
with due process Of law, where the laws can
be enforced. We may have to keep our army
in tho field for years and il we to-day applaud
their Illegal interference in favor Of human free.
dom, we may Tomorrow in grief be compelled
TO mourn their interference against freedom.
