The RECAPTURED CITIEs.-Some natural
surprise has been expressed at the apparent
absence Of genuine Union sentiment in the
southern cities now under federal authority.
1t had been promised that the suppressed en-
thusiasm for the old flag would manifest itself
in nearly all the places which northern troops
have yet favored with their presence, as soon
as safety could be secured. But the promise
has not been well kept. Dark as the fact
may appear, the slaves are the only people
who have welcomed them with enthusiasm
and thanked God for their coming. In the
city Of New Orleans where we have been as
surrel there was a deep and strong under
current of Union feeling, the overtures of
the federal authorities have been received
with forced and reluctant consent. In
Norfolk though, the negroes put on their
holiday attire, and rejoicedin the hope of bet
ter days for themselves and their race, the
whites received the old authority with every
manifestation Of disrespect and contempt
These places were thought to represent the
"'Nl''SN tutlSCIN llN Stlllllllellt Ol me COu-
tederacy," as opposed to the extreme and I'M
reconcileable communities in which the re-
bellion had its origin. But the result shows
that they are inspired with the same deep
seated malice which confounds good with evil
ind will see nothing attractive in the gov
eminent they have once wronged. The mos
Nmd.ctiye and malignant, the most dangerou!
OF all conspirators. are found among the re
spectacle, controlling classes, who have beel
accustomed to regard power as an heirloom
their fallen houses. There seems to be bu
one remedy for this settled insanity of their,
and that is THE STRONG ARM. The efficacy ,
conciliatory and persuasive herbs has bee
tried in vain. The promise of safety and pal
don for all past disloyalty does not sccl
to emancipate them from the thraldrom {
leaders-tor whom there is Of course no for
glycness. The assurance that every act tend
ing to imperil the public safety will hercatte
be punished in just proportion to the magni
tude of the otfcnse would doubtless have ;
deeper and more lasting effect

wOR Q f & TER:
TaUKsDAY, MAY Is. 1909.

THE indications multiply that the rebels
under Lee and Johnston will make one mere
stand before Richmond if they are not again
frightened by the preparations of Gen. Nc
Clellan. 1t appears that the hope Of foreign
interference has not quite deserted them, and
that they have the forecast to see that the
abandonment OF their capital will be regarded
abroad as nearly equivalent to the abandon
ment of their cause. The fall of the capt.
tai. says the Richmond Examiner. "and the
flight Of the government would be a striking
evidence OF power. They (the United StateS)
would declare that before midsummer they
would subdue the remnant of the south they
would be believed. The success of the south
would then be difficult, and to be obtained by
desperate means only. Nothing should be
allowed to justify an evacuation of Rich
mond' Possibly these bold declarations are
n cover to plans of retreat already matured,
and which were foreshadowed in the flight of
the confederate congress before the evacua-
ton of Yorktown. But it is difficult to see
what advantage they would gain by retreat,
unless it is the settled purpose to fall back
upon the interior, and carry on predatory
and irregular warfare for an indefinite period
The fact Of the delay of Gen. Mcclellan at
Cumberland indicates that he regards a
battle imminent, and that he does not intend
to risk the engagement till he is reasonably
assured of success.

LETTER OF Hon. Henry WmsoN.-Scnator
Wilson has addressed letter to Gen. Tyler Of
Boston in answer to irresponsible charges that
the secretary Of war, Mr. Sumner, and HIM
self had interfered with Gen. McClellan's mill
tary plans. With regard to Mr.. Sumner and
himself he gives the charges emphatic denial.
OF the secretary Of war he says:
MIR Stanton entered the war Office at q
time OF anxiety and gloom, when the most
thoughtful men of the country were oppressed
with solCitude concerning the condition of tho
country, foreign and domestic. Mr.. Stanton
carried into the war Office industry. zeal and an
iron will, actuatcd by an intense and vehement
desire to promptly crush out this rebellion.
He pressed upon all, in both the military and
civil service, the importance of prompt and
decisive action. He may have committed some
errors, but / am sure he has done intention
al injustice to none. ! do not know that he
has intertered with any of the plans Of Gen.
Mcclellan, but do know that he has laborcd
with untlagging zeal to place all the resources
of the government at the disposal of Gen.
Mcclellan and our other military commanders.
/ believe that Edwin NJ Stanton deserves
not the censure, but the gratitude of all men
who would promptly suppress this unhallowed
GeDelnOn.
Mr. Wilson goes into the details of his re-
iatlons with Gen. Mcclellan and the army, and
concludes as follows:
In regard to operations in the field. as in
civil affairs, form my opinion from the facts
that come within my knowledge, and. as Is n,,,
habit have expressed these opinions freely
perhaps too freely, but am not the pnrtisan
nor the enemy Of any of our military com.
manders. ! go as far as he who goes the farth.

that we have a class Of men who are swift IA

and military service, who are striving to inn

there is in congress party disposed to inter-
fere with the plans Of Gen. Mcclellan. 10

Destruction OF Pine Woods in SuhoIls

iolll ''lc .'cN lOrk Herald, Nav IA.
During the last week series of fires, or
cohnagrauons, as they deserve to be called
occurred IN the wooded plains of that part OF
Long Island which is comprised within the
HllltS OF the town Of BrOokhaven, Suffolk
county, altogether unparalleled for their ex-
tent, intensity and deStructiveness bv any
similar events since the island was first set
tied. Indeed, it may well be questioned if
the total losses of all the fires which have han
pened on the island for fifteen or twenty
years past would furnish an ADEQUATE meas
ure OF the disaster inflicted by these recent
terrible visitations. Nor is the injury result
ing from them immediate and direct only.

The report that Capt. Porter was lowering
about Mobile with part of his mortar feet
throws some light upon the delay of G. en- Hal
leck's operations. The possession of Mobile
will open the Alabama and Mobile rivers to
our gunboats. and render the Mobile & Ohio
railroad, which runs along the boundary line
OF Alabama and Mississippi through Corinth,
useless to Beauregard and his army in case
Of a retreat. The city of Mobile is one of
the last points on the coast which it is desir-
able to possess in anticipation of the great
battle for which both armies have been long
preparing in the valley of the Tennessee
Perhaps some fine morning Beauregard may
find himself environed on all sides with no al
tentative but death or surrender.
