Why is II.

w by Is il that there is such an extravo'
CANT sensitiveness, on the part Of Gener.
al McClellan's special friends and admi.
rers, respecting every thing which seems
% initiate against his military greatnessl
Why are they SO quick to spy out assaults
where none are intended Why such
nervous dread Of possible failure Of his
proving the great General Of the warl--
There is something significant in it.
Some of them say politics is at the bot
tom Of themi Why are there not COM
plants against Gen. Hallcck thenl This
will not do, IL has no foundation to stand
on. Why then this terrible sensitiveness
unless, his most ardent partisang and
champions themselves feel that as yet he
has rot proved himself a great military
chieltain! 1t would be well for McClel-
Ian himself that his peculiar and special
friends should moderate their super-scrv-
iceable zeal in his behalf They may dc
him more damage than all his enemies.--
His Generalship is most decidedly yet tc
be proven, and when it is proven by Q
great success, there will be but very few
indeed who will seek to with hold from
him their praise. Meonwlile, the pres.
ent Incorporate, uncallcd Or and mos
wonderful zeal in his behalf, manifested
on every possible occasion and with nc
accession at all, has tendency to. faster
the idea upon the public mind, that he has
failed and come short Of the reasonabl,
expectations Of the public. Since tn,
world began, no man had a better oppor
tunity to win fame and honor than Gen
Mcclellan. He has not yet won them
but he may.-Sdn. Reg.

27th and l9d Illinois, and a part II the
10Th Wisconsin FROM n0ar Island l0,with
u detachment of cavalry and artillery from
Hickman under Col, llcg, made de-
scent upon Union City. Aiior forced
march OF thirty miles, they toll upon the
Rebel encampmont, and att o'clock In
the morning dispersed the entire force
stationed there under Clay King, both
cavalry and infantry. They fled in every
direction. Several of the unemy were
killcG, and wounded, and taken prisoners,
and large amount of spoils captured

the island. They are constantly busy,
both with steamboats, and men. Mortars
fired yesterday aud to-day every fncen

to desidc. Shells arc thrown upon thu

sound Sentiment

We clip the paragraph below from the
Toledo Commercidlof Monday, which pa
per by the way, is one of the most fairly
conducted and thoroughly loyal papersin
the State:
There arc those who, in the midst OF
civil war, would renew our party strifes.
Let US not accept their challenges, or re.
peat our errors. There is work Of res
toroton and Of reconciliation TO be effec.
ted. II Is work which can be ocoom-
plished ny no party, for which no party
should seek or receive @edit. Let us
not waste our time ip elimination, cast
ing censure upen this party and that, this
man or ibc other, but freely accept our
share Of responsibility for the past, rcsolv-
ing that, for the future, we will govern
our actions by higher standard, and
that, as tn g first step, wo will resolutely
strive TO "conqucr our prejudices. y
Whatever other triunphs we have achiev-
ed, this will be our noblest conquest.
"The permission of slavery in the Con
stitutiOu, If such there be, as asserted and
generally admitted, is only impl ed, ard
nowhere expressly declared. That in
strumcnt seems 10 have been made in
anticipation of better and more just time
TO come. Tho ffamers must have intend
ed that when slavery should be done away
the Constitution should still remain; and
that with this national progress and ex-
termination OF evil, the language Of the
Constitution should become even now
more appropriate, and this highest law Of
a nation where freedom and justice and
equal rights are the inheritance of ovey
man abide in its righteousness forever."l

Another Reminder.

To the stupid Loooloco editors Of this
State, who are constantly charging the
Republican party as being Abolitionists.
we submit the following plank of tho
platform adopted by the Democratic Con.
ysntion, held at Columbus, on the 9th of
January, 1862, and also remind them that
no other party in the North has ever at.
tempted to set up liko crusade agsinst
Slavery in the States. The plank is as
follows;
Resolved, That the Democracy Of Ohio
do now, as they always have done, look
upon Slavery as an evil, and unfayorable
TO the full deve lopment OF the spirit and
practical benefits OF free institutions; aud
that, entertaining these sentiments, they
will, At all times, feel II their duty to use
all power given by the terms OF the Ma
tional compact to prevent its increase, to
MITIGATE, aud FINALLY ERADICATE
THE EVIL.

The Dissolved Partnership I'm
Mexico.

We have news three days later from
Vera Cruz, which shows no material al
tcration in the aspect OF affairs in Mexico.
Tho belief seems to be prevalent, howey-
or, that England has washed, or is fully
bent on washing her hands Of the whole
business; and, seeing some prospect OF
settling her own special grievance with
out further hostile demonstrations, she is
to let her companions get clear of the en-
tanglemcnt in the best way they can
IL would be premature to say that this
Withdrawal on the pes6 of England set
ties the matter finally. On the contrary,
we think it possible enough that the real
trouble may only yet be commencing.-
IL 1t should be otherwise, we shall all re-.
ioice. Meanwhile, we desire to recall to
our readers the ominous words uttered by
the leading organ of public opinion in
England, just two months ago. IN more
beneficial employment" said the English
organ, "could be found for the French
army than the restoration Of good Gov
ernment. AT any rate, France may count
upon our entire acquiescence in her eff.
forts to restore tranquility. We shall
certainly ieol no Jealousy at any prepon.
derancc of the French forces. Untl q
strong Government Js formed, il will
probably be necessary that a military
force shall occupy the capital; and even
though the French were to extend their
occupation for year or two, there would
be no disquict on this side OF the chan
nel.n
From the opening of the ball, then, it
would seem, it was contemplated that
contingencies might arise when France
would have to act alone, and play out the
game single-hNnded.
We dare not assert that these contin.
geneies have now arisen, or that France
may not quietly retire after the negotia-
tions al Orizaba are completed; but when
the public Of England are so long FORE
warned to expect French occupation in.
dependent Of England-an occupation
not for tie enforcement of moneyed obli-
cations, but for the establishment of a
strong government-we cap see little oc.
casion thus fpr to exult over the improved
situation in Mexico.-N. Y. Tribune.

Yancey NOt CaPtured-Orign OF
the IsumOr.

Il turns out after all that the arch trail
tor Yancey is still at large, and that the
statement of his having recently made a
speech in New Orleans has some proba-
bility in it. We learn, from our cores
ponecnt at Key West, the manner in
which the rumor OF his capture got start
cd. 1t appears that Commodore Ridge
ley of the Santiago do Cuba, received a
letter from the American Consul Gener-
al at Havana, informing him that Yam
cey had sailed for southern port in the
William Mallory. On the 9th, after the
receipt of this intelligence, the Water
Witch arrived at Key West, having on
board the captain and crew of this vessel
which she captured on the 9th off st. An
drew's Bay. The people of Key West
were thrown into state Of great excite
ment by the rumor, which Immediately
got into circulation, that Mr. YaDcey was
among the prisoners, in the disguise Of q
seaman. A close scrutiny of the crew,
however, showed that this impression was
unlounded; and, furthermore, our cores
pondent was informed by the mate of the
Mallory that Yancey had left Havana
the day before the latter vessel sailed in
schooner called the Break of Day, bound
for Mobilo.-N. Y. Herald.

pEACE AND ITs CHANGES

Some secession sympathising sheets
express great fear lest every thing after
the rebellion is put down, will not take
its former place. They would like to see
the South rule the country again, and
jeff, Davis and his reasonable associates
again taking seats IN the u, S. Senate,
Al who harbor such ideas had better
disabuse their minds Immediately. We
have a pilot at tho he In, thank God, who
will give traitors their well merited aud
lawful reward, The cause which pro-
duoed this rebellion will never again rear
its head after peace is declared.
Crime always brings It's just reward
Brave men haze been killed; property has
been destroyed aud whole states laid
waste and the persons and cause that
has produced this will have to suffer the
penalty Of the law.

Location OF the Battle OF Tea
KIdgo ArIknMSMs.

The location Of the great battle in Ar
kansas, is in the extreme northwestern
part oflthe State, and in the northwestern-
most county, (Benton.) A range of hills
(of the Ozark range, ,)will be seen sweep
ing from Missouri through this corner OF
the State, and from thence branching into
the ludian territory, where that section
known as the Boston Mountain is found.
Big Sugar Creek, near which the fight
began, is a short distance north of Ben
tonvillc, the capital OF Benton county, and
Pea Ridge, which is part of the noun
tain range, is but a short distance from
the same town. Crosse Timber Hollows
to anu from which the rebels were
chased, is four miles from the head waters
of the Usage creek. The section of coun.
try where the battle took place is a wild
billy region, where, in case of a rout, it
would be extremely difficult to pursue the
routed enemy.

CAMP STANTON, Tenn.,l
March 2Ith.
This camp is on Duck river, opposite
the city Of Columbia, which is the coun.
iy scat of Maury county. This river is
some larger than the Sandusky river, has
been very high, both bridges were dc.
stroycd by the 'ebels--thcy were burning
when our Cavalry arrived. They were
destroyed by Sootps Louisiana Cavalry
that being the only rebel force that
was ever here. We are building bridge
and therefore the detention. If Il had
not been for this, we would have been in
Alabama several days ago. We will n
he able 10 leave here before next Mon
day or Tuesday. The people seem to be
moro loyal hero than in some othcr
places in Tenn.
On yesterday, Maj. Drake, Capt. Bart.
lett and myself obtained permission tc
cross the river and exhibit ourselves il
the streets Of the city, as Union soldier
had never been known 10 walk the streets
We therefore swung around ~ pistols tC
the number offuurtccn rounds each will
a reserve in pockots Of fry and, with the
aid of little boat, we were soon on the
other side Of Duck river, walking the
streets Of the city as though wo were old
settlers. Being in our finest drcss, oi
course Hc looked well. It would hnvc
done you good to have seen the nutiycs
look at us. Windows, doors and corners
Of streets were filled with mon, women
children and nipgcrs, all eager to see
what they had been taught TO believe was
a different race Of people.
We walked the streets until We were
tired and then stopped at hotel aud got
our dinners, then returned 30 camp salo
and sound. The people generally look.
cd pleasant and friendly. We went into
several storcs--madc few small pur.
chascs--evcrything is very high, about
double what the sumc articles costs IN
Ohio.
This Camp Is named nftor tho Soc. of
Warts we'll located for health. We
have but five men unfit forduty and tbcyaro
but little sick. Ihavc no sick men in my
company. So soon as this bridge is com
pletcd we will move our heavy and slow
longth along towards "Dixic." We
don't know where the rebels will mako O
stand. TWAS supposed they would give
battle at Decatur, but recent udyiscs 10
to show they nrc leaving that point. In
fact il will be utter madness for them to
give Us battle nny where on the Amcri.

with fifty or sixty thousand strsng aud
