DEMOCRACY AND ARIsTOCRACY.

Sparta downwards, have been fond of
peace To this the Boston TRANSCRIPT

than any other country for war, we presume
that Lord Brougham means by this state.

ment. During the past one hundred and
seventy years she has expended in war over
ten H0"sand millions Of dollars, of which

Of the most collosal of national debts. II

is the distinguishing peculiarity of aristo

admit that, on that occasion. II eyinccd an

The shenandoah Campaign.

At the late campaign i'll the Shenandoah
Valley, from the time that Gen. Fremont
left Franklin to the moment when he saw the
the Shenandoah River, too late to escape by
way of the bridge over which the Rebel
commander had Just passed and burnt be-
hind him, less is known than of any other
campaign of the whole war. The facts, how
ever, have not been wholly hidden. 1t is
known that jackson turned his face south
ward so soon as he heard that Fremont
with only half his number of men, was on
his tracks; that he never tarred to give him
battle in force; that in every engagement
between the rear of one army and the ad-
vance of the other, our troops were vctori-
Gus; and that when Jackson had fairly es-
capped over the river that ought to have stop
ped him, and compelled him at last to face
the foe, lie stayed all further pursuit by de-
stroying the bridge over which he fled.
When jackson came down the valley he
posted himself in an advantageous position
at Mcdowell, where Milroy and Schenck
attacked him. After desperate fight a.
gainst overwhelming numbers, these two
gallant leaders fell back in good order. Jack.

Jackson, fearing in his turn to make an at
tack, retired. Moving on toward Winches-

to make that mastery retreat, with little

it or not, reputation for coolness courage,
and all soldierly qualities.

So the Rebel General would, instead of go
ing up the Valley, have turned upon his rear,
fallen upon Franklin, and have cut oft all
his supplies of provisions and ammunition.
Acting, therefore, on his own Judgment, Ere
mont made forced march to Moorheld,
crossed the mountains in the face of incred-
ible difficulties, got in the rear of Jackson
and forced him to fly for his life up the Val
ley. Had he been properly supported he
would, without doubt, have overtaken the
retreating Rebels, who never paused or con-
sidered themselves safe from pursuit till
they had put deep river and burning
bridge between themselves and their pur-
suers. If this can be construed into " de-
feat of Fremont" then facts are valueless
and words without meaning.

THE REBEL MORGAN AT WORK
KENTUCKY ALARMED,

The most intense excitement prevailed on
either side of the Ohio, at Cincinnati last
Saturday and Sunday, occasioned by the an
nouncement of a rebel raid in Kentucky, led
by the notorious John Morgan, and which
threatened Lexington, Frankfort and even
Louisville. Gen. Boyle of the latter place
dispatched to Indiana and Ohio for assist
ance, and on Sunday troops were forwared
from Camps Chase and Dennison. A large
number of the ctizns of Cincinnati, Coving-
Ton and Newport shouldered the musket
and We're joined by one hundred and fifty of
the police of the former city. One regiment
and n large number of citizens of Indiana
were among the volunteers. The latter We're
retained at Louisville, and the former sent
immediately to Lexington. The latest dis
patch received from Lexington up to Sun
day evening, stated that a portion of Nor
gan's forces, about four hundred strong, was
at Ncholasville, twelve miles from the city.
The rebels were supposed to be advancing
by threo different roads. General Boyle,
however thinks that the intention is. to at
tack Louisville The rebels had possession
Of the Telegraph between Louisville and
Frankfort, and they would probably destroy
the railroad bridges. This force is various
lestimated at from two to four thousand. Ii
no doubt gathered strength as it moved
through the country. The proclamation
issued by Morgan to the Secessionsts, tc
rise, was not an impromptu invitation The
plan il is thought was previously fully uu-
derstood by the sympathzers throughout
the State. The Gazette from which we
gather the foregoing particulars, says that
ameeting extraordinary of the Cincinnati
Council was held on Sunday, and a resolu-
ton passed appropriating FIVE thousand
dollars to pay the expenses of her volun.
teers going to the rescue of the poriled
State. A resolution was also introduced
offering a bounty of ten dollars each TO the
first thousand volunteers raised in that city
for the war. Recruiting officers were i'm
mediately opened, and before the close OF
the day, over five hundred had Responded
TO the call
Since the above was in type, the Secre
tary of War has received information of the
retreat of Morgan. Recruiting for tina
purpose has therefore been discontinued,

TIE SITUATION.

THE new position of Gen. Mcclellan is
said to be one of greater strength than the
one on the Chickahominy. Our latest report
confirms the terrible punishment which, in
retiring to his base at Turkey Bend, he in
ficted upon the preponderating and dcsper-
ate foe Our army suffered terribly, but
under all the trying circumstances of the
situation, gloriously preserved an undaunt-
ed front, and safely reached its present
commanding position. From the carefully
scanned columns of the Eastern papers we
can gather but little that is satisfactory in
reference to the number of re.inforcements
which have been sent to Mcclellan. Gen.
Burnside is by this time acting in coniunc-
ton with him brigades and regiments have
been hurried forward from Washington and
other points adjacent; and the probabilities
are that not less than forty or fifty thousand
good soldiers have been added to his COM
mand.
The programme of the next advance upon
the rebel capital will not, in our opinion,
partake so much of the characteristics of a
siege as the former movement. We may
look for some of the most dashing and
brilliant fighting of the war, in which the
veterans under Sumner, Hooker Hcintzel-
man and other gallant commanders. will
take swift and sure revenge upon the rebel
hordes which overpowered, but did not dis
may them. The speculation most indulged
in by competent military men is that the
next movement will be an assault upon
Fort Darling, which being reduced, the
gunboats may easily and speedily clear
James river of distinctions. and take posi-
ton at once in front of Richmond But,
speculation aside, there is one assurance
which gives content to all loyal hearts. The
government and the loyal North are aroused
to the necessity of the immediate reduction
Of the rebel capital General Mcclellan
will have all the soldiers he needs. His
troops are tried, their spirits are eager,
the commanders have proved themselves,
the cause is holy, the prize lies before them.
Not all the intervening obstacles that des-
perate rebellion may again cast in their
way will impede their forward march.
Richmond must soon fall.

PRESIDENT LINCOLN.

IT seems that Uncle Abram has become
peripatetic, He is not a disciple of Zeno,
remaining altogether inthe Painted Portion;
but seems to be an Arstotelian, in his dis
position to perambulato through the garden
and the grove. We accordingly find the
sleepy Gothamites rubbing their drowsy
eyes on being told that the President passed
them without disturbing their slumbers on
his way TO West Point. Now we are told
that he has been onward TO Richmond, u
and breaklasted with Mcclellan, TO see what
the "boys" have been about, and what is
needed for their future comfort, All this
is significant Mr.. Lincoln has evidently
determined to find ont for himself what is
right; and then, depend upon it, he will &c
ahead.
