The ClIque-rheir organ, the Star, ana the
Fraud Practiced upon the Country.
1t is now known that the enemy commenced
the evacuation Of Centreville and Manassas as
early as the first day OF this month, and had
completed it by the ninth day. March 7th a
council of general officers voted, to 4, that
an advance should not be made until the LIST of
April. On the evening of the same 7th of
March the Star came out with the following
conspicuous editorial announcement =
eve have every reason to believe that. in
stead OF Withdrawing troops from their army
OF the Potomac, the oligarchy are straining
every nerve to increase their numbers every.
where in our front, from their lowest Potomac
battery TO Winchester, crowding thither near

teering and drafting. SUCH Is THE OPIN-
ION OF THE BEST JUDGES IN OUR
ARMY ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE
RIVER"
We have printed certain words in capitals
in order to attract special attention to them
The reader will observe it is not merely its
own opinion which the Star proiessed to give
but that ''of the best judges in our army on the
OTHER side Of The riUer." Nobody who under.

from its columns Of March 7, is a specimen of
the recklessness OF the statements made to

that plot efiectual.
The paragraph we have quoted will bear

The Liquor LAw.-We understand that
formidable petition has been sent to the egis-
lature from this city and vicinity, signed by
Ephraim Mower and several hundred others,
asking for the repeal of the liquor law, and
the enactment of judicious license law in lis
stead. The petition has been iudustriously
circulated; but inasmuch as the legislature
disposed of the whole subject early in the ses-
sion, by giving petitioners fer similar pur.
pose from Boston leave to withdraw, il will
not be likely to accomplish its intended pur.

CITY AND COUNTY.
The ROBINS have made their appearance

REV L. Moss. at the First Baptist church,
gave, last evening, an account of three DAYS
Visit at the Howard Mission, or Home for Lit
tie Wanderers, in New York City, benevo.
lent enterprise of which Rev w. C. Van Me.
Ter is TIE Chief worker. The visit of Mr..
Moss was made principally on account of some
criticisms which have been made upon the
mission aud lis agent although he himself
was well satisfied OF The great gocd which the
mission was accomplishing, and had long been
acquainted with its agent. The time which
he spent in New York was devoted entirely to
an investigation into the institution and its
practical workings, and he came away with
admiration for the self sacrificing labors of
MIR. Van Meter, and with the feeling that
no more meritorious appeals were made
to our charity, than for this and similar
institutions for the education of home
less and ignorant children A very inter.
esting account of the workings OF this
particular institution was given, and some let
tiers from the children who have been provided
with homes were read. The boxes of
clothing which were sent from this place were
opened while MIR. Moss was at the Mission,
and more grateful people than the laborers
there he never saw. Mr.. Van Meter has been
instrumental in providing homes at the west
for about one thousand children. In conclud-
ing his narrative, Rev. Mr.. Moss appealed to
his large audience to give their active support
to the City Mission OF Worcester, similar
charity.
Rev Mr.. Richardson seconded the sugges-
tons of Rev. MIR. Moss with some practical
remarks, and thought we should deal heavy
blows at the causes of ignorance and vice.

Col. Devens is too prominent among those

representative government which is now on
trial, not the cause of any man on earth. We
are contending for the very hopes of future,
for grand and wonderful people, over whose
fall angels might pause to weep. The inter-
ests of no public man, civil or military, de-
mand the thought OF a loyal human being
among us. And they weaken and be-little
our moral position, while they tend to demon
alize the public heart and mind, who attempt
TO hang the issues of national life on the sword
of any leader. Wisdom will still live when all
this generation has gone under the dust; and
the people, country and humanity will live
when all who are now counted great, in peace
or in war, will have been forgotten and lost,
even to history. Believe me, sir, with high
respect, your obedient servant.

The rebel General Van Dorm was instantly
removed by JEFF Davis after losing the battle
of Corinth General Halleck remarks that
the same rigid system of accountability would
doubtless have saved us many disasters and
reverses in the past, but our leaders are too
kind-hearted and complaisant to dismiss in
competent generals from the service.

er, before leaving for Europe, purchased
81 800, 900 in gold. Mr.. Corcoran made all
this money out of our country, and then left
it disguised with the institutions under which
all his property was obtained.
Gen. Sherman proposes to put hostages up
on all unarmed steamers running between
Cairo and Helena, to run the same chance as
pilots. Something must be done. Firing is
now more frequent than ever.
1t is reported at Washington that Thurlow
Weed, or parties acting through him, have

view of converting it into an organ bearing
semi-official relations to the government.
Injustice was done to Mr.. Buchanan by the
