NIB. LIEC0LNsS MESSAGE.


: The inherent nobility Of ABRAHAM LIN
coin was never more clearly shown than
IN bis recent message to Congress, wherein.
he avows, as the joint we1k Of himself and
Cabinet, the acts for which his late: Secreta-
~ Of War, Mr. Cameron, has been severe
II blamed The fankness and noblEness
of bis avowals and his manifest intention
to so conduct affairs as to leave nothing for
enmity to carp at, are more than compen-
cation for the injudicious selections made
by himself and his constitutional advisers,
Of persons to carry out a few Of the plans
which were resolved upon for the preserva-
ton Of the Government. A mean man or
a dishonest man would have shirked the
responsibility which he las assumed, and
would have suffered his retiring Secretary
to cauJ of the odium which certain acts
and certain actors brought in their train.
But he, conscious OF his own integrity and
profoundly assured of the rectitude Of his
count1ymen, appeals from the mistake Of
Congress to the judgment Of the people,
assuring them that lie. did only what WAS
forced upon him by the ezigencies Of the
situation; that he Was compelled under
the pressure Of events, to select as hi
agents men unknown to him; and that i
there is blame for unintentonal wrong, he
not Mr. Cameron, must be charged with
it. Herein the President is magnanimous
and herein he shows that abiding trust il
the people, whose servant he is, that they
viii be glad to repay With their hearty ap
DlauSe.

New Version OF the Story.

The Coriuth correspondent Of the N. 7.
Times says:
At Savannah, ten miles below Pittsburs,
lives wealthy family named Irwin or Irving.
Among the members Of the family arc ifvc

Tho electric spark sent out from Wash
fngton On Sunday, and which burnt the
1act that the "Capital is in danger !" into
the military records Of every loyal State,
greeted an uprising Of the masses, that, IN
any other country, would mark an esa in
national history. Wherever it went, it
found the people prepared Tor the emer-
gency that it announced; and had it been
followed by second dispatch saying that
a levy en- .uassc was necessary for the ac-
complishment Of the objects for which our
armies are in the field, the whole popula:
ton, save those who would stay at home
to "push up fire in the rear" would have
rushed to arms. Let the suppliants for
peace on any terns-the base fellows who
arc waiting the hour to sell their counry's
honor for the qualification Of their partisan
hates be warned by the lessons Of g night,
The great heart Of the people is loyal to
the national cause; and, come what may,
they will uphold it!

AmARcH1NG RECORD,


a few weeks since Gen. Halleck ordered
Gen. Curtis to detach portion Of the army
Of the Southwest and send it, with all pos
sible dispatch, to the aid Of the Federal
forces before Corinth. The order was re-:
ceived by the latter at Batesville, Ark, and
promptly obeycd. How many men we're
forwarded it is unnecessary to mention,
but the alacrity Of their movements is
worthy Of note. The march from Bates
vile to Cape Girardeau, Mo, a distance Of
two hundred and forty mics, WAS accom-
plished In ten days, some Of the men being
Obliged to travel barefoot for the last sixty
miles This gives al average Of twenty
four miles per day; and when it is remem-
bened that the regulation days march is
fifteen miles, ne can readily accord the
honor for rapid locomotion to the soldiers
of the Southwest. The day before the bat
lie Of Pea Ridge, detachment from Curtis
army, under Col Vandever, marched from
Huntsville to Sugar Greek, forty one miles,
with but two halts Of fifteen minutes each.
Few Of the soldiers in the armies under
Mcclellan and Ha11eck hare, undergone
la1dahips equal to those incident to a
campaign in Missouri and Arkansas. 1t IS
q significant fact that there have been pro-
po1tionately fewer deaths by disease in the
armies Of the Southwest than in those
which, month after month, lay dormant
along the Potomac and the Ohio and Mis-
sissippi Rivers.

Terrible FAta11tJ-ThFee Men Swept
over Niagara Falls In q Row HoaE'
lF1om the Rochester Democrat Of 2sth ]
Yesterday morning the people OF Niagara
Falls ~ere startled By the report that three
men were swept over the fells IN row boat
The occurrence Is said to have taken place
about six O'Clock g. NJ, and was hrst 4lscoV-
cred By. q porter at the Cata-act House,
who saw The boat containing the men, in the
middle Of the river, and saw the final plunge
from the brink Of the awful chasEn, whose
depths hare already engulphsd many human
beings in 9 destruction terrible to the lmagi-
nation and appalling to realize. We learn
from gentleman who visited the Canada side
of the river yesterday that the fatal ca:as-
trophe was also Witnessed from near the
Clifton House. The men Kere seen putting
out from the Canada side, near Chippewa,
with the evident intention of landing near
the south end Of Goat Island. After getting
out a short distance the current Eas found too
strong for them, the recent high wind up the
lake was still forcing more than usual quau-
tity Of water through the river, and although
they -n@dc every e1ertiou TO- stem the rush
ing tide, yet their Efforts were entirely un-
awaiting. They Fere seen after battling for a
time desperately against the current, to draw
the11 oars from the water, aud sit mottonless
in the boat, resigned to their fate. In this
condition they were swept over the falls.
The names Of the unfortunate men were no!

Of specie, and. in fact, robbed and plundcred
the establishment, Did those vaudals consider
for a moment that the money they stole, OF
the letters they DESTROYED, were the property
Of the citizens Of New Orleans, and rot fhatos
the Fedesa1se We believe they did not, and
do not care. Their object was evidently moth
ing but public plundeT.
THE EXPEDITION TO EATON RoCaE.
The HcaYune Of May Let says ths State ar.
chfges were removed to tbs interior before
our fleet. reached the place, and that all the
cotton aud sugar were destroyed. The Gov
ernor made speech encouraging this course,
and most Of the people commenced departing
for the interior. A correspondent Of the
rival Of our fleet at the Capital Tas greeted
with enthusiasm: At the approach Of the
ships, the rebel flags were hauled down, and
the Stars and Stripes displayed from public and
prIyate buitdlnga. The greatest enthusiasm
prevailed among the inhabltants, who rushed
down to the river and greeted them with cheers
and waving hats and nandkerchiefs. One Of
the leading men Of the town rode down on
horseback, and cried ont, ttHurrah for Lincoln,
brad and meat The people are represented
as in the highest state Of ofexeitement, the Union
sentiment Overwhelming a1 sympathy with
the rebellion.

morning, which gave great annoyance aud
trouble to persons having provisions to buy.
Most Of the butchers refused to take any
money but city notes and specie, or to make
any distinction between them. Though the city
had announced Its determination 10 receive
the various iasues Of individuals, and in their
place to put IN circulation its own notes, some,
and indeed most Of the butchers, refused to
take the Issues OF the most responsible per
Sons In the city, or to change Confederate
notes. There being great scarcity Of city
notes, but few persons we're able to make any
purchases. The consequence WIS that many
persons lad to 60 home with empty baskets,
and fortunate will be- those who hare salt
meats for dinner.

a murder Ess committed"in NeH York
few days since, which bears I. resemblance to
the celebrated sickles murder. Major Wat
rous of Lake Superior, and James Carson OF
Detroit, both gentlemen Of standing, and:par
ners in mining operations, met in a boarding
house in Now 7 York, and after convarsing for
time in friendly manner, the litter being
apparently somewhat intoxicated, Carson
drew pistol and shot Major Watrous, the
ball entering between. his ribs and lodging in
his lungs. He will prohably die. The imme-
diate cause of this tragedy is said to be tho
criminal familiarity Of Watrous with C.saou's 8
Hife. Carson made his escape, and has not
