~ The Constitutional Unton is the title
Of new paper just started at Philadelphia,
by our old friend Col. Thomas b. Florence.
1t is political paper, of course, and pro-
fcsses to be Democratic, but not of the
Jefferson or Jackson school. Wcnced hardly
say that it is of the Breckinridgc and Val
landigham stamp, as its name will readily
suggest to every intelligent man. Good
patriots and good Democrats go for the
Union as our forefathcrs established it and
fought for it. Whenever you hear or sec
any one qualify his support of the Union, by
the word constitutional or any other prefix,
you may rely on it, the Breckinridgc cat is
lying concealed at the bottom of the meal
tub-that the illustrated niggor, which our
ncighbors of the Brcckinridgc Democrat so
Enthusiastically and appropriately intro
duced into their editorial columns last week,
will spring out in due time. Breckenridge
was the chief and leader of the so-called
Constitutional party, that party which has
been the life and support of the rebels in
the North, by giving them hope, aid and
encouragement. Breckenridge preached that
doctrine until the last hour of his departure
or descrtion to the ranks of jeff Davis, where
he now figures as a General, using all his
energies and power to shoot down and
slaughter the Jackson and Jefferson Demo

strictions-who denouncc the suspension o.

taxes-who endeavor to thwart and compli

cling political schemes instead of acting
from patriotic motives, in order to craw
into some petty Office, these men would, thi
day, feel perfectly at home under the lcat
of Breckinridge, if it were not so unpleasan
and uncomfortable to live in Dixie.

r5Y" The visit of the President and Gen.
Pope to General Scott, at West Point, has
excited no little interest and curiosity. The
New York journals suggest various reasons
for this sudden and unexpected visit. No
doubt the visit has something to do with
the movements Of the Army, now before
Richmond.
The impression is that the rebel force at
Richmond has been greatly exaggerated
Some accounts state that not more than
$4,000 effective men can be mustered by the
rebels, the balance being sick and raw re.
cruits The rebels admit that if General
Burnside should capture Fort Darling, and
our gun-boats be enabled to pass up James
river, Richmond would not hold out two
hours

Dress PARADE.-The 18th Indiana regi-
ment will have its dress parade on Main

The boys of the 18th understand how to
crush the rebellion. They conquer the he
rebels with their minnies and sword bayo-
nets on the battle field, and in the cities
they conquer the she rebels by their hand

they are opening the campaignin Memphis,

W can't doubt their success.

The public spirit of the farmers of old War
rick is highly commendable. The fact that
80 large portion of the farming commu-
nifty have enlisted in the service Of the
country only necessitates greater diligence
on the part Of these who remain, and affords
additional reasons why every improvement
made BY any one farmer should be placed
within the reach of all. We hope the War

Mercury says there is nothing to prove that
the Yankees had above 1900 or $4,000
men in the battle of Fair ooks but their
obstinate resistance and the heavy loss Of
the rebels.
The fatality among the rebel officers was
terrible The 18th Mississippi regiment had
five officers and twenty Eve men killed, aud
eighteen officers and 264 men Wounded
The 9th Alabama lost eleven officers and
nineteen men killed, and eighteen officers
and 264 privates wounded. The 9th Ala
bama had one officer and twenty-six men
killed, nine officers and 1873 men wounded
The 18th Alabama lost Eve officers and
fifty-fve men killed, and six officers and
1913 men wounded. The goth Florida lost
its Major and six Captains killed, and its
Colonel wounded. The 7sth North Caro-
lima reports nearly all the field and company
officers wounded, many severely if not
mortality. Such fatality among officers
