Arrival OF Released Michigan Prison.

'TFrom the Detroit Tribune 23nd

This morning number of the Michigan
soldiers captured at Bull Run and other places,
since the var commenced, and released few
days ago by tho rebel government at Rich
nond, arrived from Washington. They came
from Washington to Cleveland By rail, aud
thence to this city By the steamer May Queen.
Before the arrival Of the steamer, the Light
Guard, Capt, Cro1l, with their excellent band,
and large number Of citizens, eWere at the
wharf Of the Michigan Central Railroad Com
pany, to receive them.
A short time after six O'Clock the Queen
,neared the dock, and upon the promenade
deck, neac the bow, were grouped our brave
Michigan soldiers, most Of whom had been
lying In noisome rebel prisons since the 21st of
.ju1y, 1861. The band struck up the sweet
and appropriate Dir Of Home, Sweet Home"
Three rousing cheers went up from the crowd
assembled, and soon the returned braves were

idea that huge gap is created in the Union
BY the rebellion; that it is deformed and
imperfect; that its legitimate authority is
at least questionable; and the Chicago
Times goes SO far as to pronounce it q
bastard. Now it is not true that the con-
sent Of every individual, or Of every State, is
necessary to the existence Of the Union in
all its grandeur and perfection. Our sys-
ten Of government is founded on the con
sent Of the people; and 8 majority Of the
people govern. But if, according to, the
pro-slavery theory, it be founded on the
consent Of the States, then majority Of
the States govern In either case, the gov
erning power rests, not On the consent OF
the aclole, but On the constltulionally e1-
pressed will of the naajoritys~ A minority
can neither destroy nor impair the authori-
ty of the Union. The. Union was not
founded on the consent Of a minority and
its constitutional existence is as perfect to-
day as. eve1.' Who calls it 8 bastard is s

RL0ODLEsS VICTORIES.

The Federal loss in the battle Of Viii
iamsburg was four thousand. That was
certain]y not bloodless fight, and the re-
suits Of the victory are computable by 4
very common rule. The rebels oppose
force to our armies, and we must meet
them with superior force. Blood1ess vic
tories will never end the war. But wholly
aside Of any considerations as to the u1ti-
mate suppression Of the rebellion, bloodless
victories are the most expensive and
awful Gen. McClellan's admirers base
their estimate Of his greatness upon the
alleged fact that he accomplishes his great
ends without the shedding Of blood. Now,
it is next to impossible to conceive of o
military hero who has never fought great
battle. Undoubtedly there have been vast
Improvements Of late years in military
science; there is more Of intellectual, and
less Of brute force, in battles nowadays
than formerly; but all the intellect and
science in the world would not suffice upon
the battle field as agaiDst musketry and cau-
non. When the reports from Williams.
burg reached us, we had hopes that Gen.
Mcclellan had awakened to realization
Of this truth. Surely the scenes he must
have witnessed at Yorktown could not fail
to teach him an important lesson.
We know the fact-but we have never
seen it in print-that two thousand Of ou1
brave men died in the trenches and wert
buried in the swamps before and around
Yorktown. All died Of sickness. Yorktown
fell into our hands sit was bloodless vic
tory! HGcn Mcclellan lad not sat dow
to siege there, but had stormed the re5e
works as soon as he arrived in front, they
would have been easily carried, without
the loss Of five hundred men. But We Lac
o bloodless victory at Yorktown! Ant
| if, at the time our forces arrived in front
the assault had been made and the work
carried, and the success followed up
there would have been no battle at VII
1ianlsburg, all obstacles to our march 'bc
tween that place and Richmond woult
easily have been swept away, and Rich
mond itself in our possession weeks agt
Gen. McC Clellan's bloodless victories are q

near Whiteness, on the Isle of Shetland, and

gone four or five hundred, it is said-were
captured by the Islanders They we're attack

were wounded, sank and aflerward rose to the

a.. The secret Of the steadfast loyalty
Of East Tennessee lies in one fact: The
people own few slaves, and have never
learned to despise lsbor. In all the States,
and sections Of States, where labor has
been held honorable and the laborer has
not been degraded, there has been no rebel
lion against the Government. In all the
States and districts where the prevailing
spirit Of the people has been Of sabservien-
cy 10 slavery, the sentiment Of loyalty has
been tainted, and tho rebellion has been
welcomed. The fact is full Of Significance.
It demonstrates beyond question that the
great struggle ow shaking the land, isun.
dieguisedly between slavery and freedom.

B The question Of dress is greatly agi-
tating London at present. A rule was made
that none should appear at the Inauguration
of the International Exhibition excepting in
full court dress with knee breeches aud sword.
This was so unpopular that it was afterwards
modified to allow gentlemen to appear In or
dinary evening dress, but on the condition
that they should occupy the back seats, and
allow the beaizzened diplomats and court Of

E| What indueemsnt can any unpreju-
diced and honorable man have to make
him desire the success Of this rebellion7 Z
On the one hand is the flag round which
cluster so many patriotic recollections, and
which has waved shove the brave in 80
many hard fought battles; the coustitu-
ton which SO many Of us have sworn to
sustain the laws which we have aided TO
enact; the treaties which we have negoi-'
ated. On the other hand are those who
trail that flag in the dust, ahjure the CON
'stitu,ion, defy the laws, and by alliances
with foreigners who spurn them. An~the
motives which govern the conduct Of men
not degraded below manhood, point from
rebellion. To be a traitor, or to sympa-
thize with traitors, is proof Of depra7isy in
lis worst form. It is cold, clammY, stold
