The Savannah Expedition Over.Esti
mated.

New YoRK, Feb. S-By the frigste Savap.
nah, we learn that the expedition on the Savan
nah River has been greatly magnlaed. It con.
sisted only of few small gunboats and a brig
ade of two thousand men, which sailed from
Port Royal to reconnoiter and exercise the men.
The main part of the expedition had returned.
When the Savannah left number of cannon
were being sent through the creek, but for what
purpose is not known
Com. Dupont has, aud will in future, prohibit
all communication between Port Royal and the
north, as the correspondents of the press have
materially aided in the failure of many of his
plans, and no steamers Or sailing vessels will be
allowed to leave until all his plans are per-
fected.

The way to put stop to these pro ,ced-
1ngs, would be to arraign this base pol-
troon before q drum-llead cours marLial

effect would be good. The only objection
that could reasonably be offered, would be
that it would be unfair to Mason to shoot

WASHINGTON, Aug. "a. 1862.
The president, it is stated, had been con-
templatiug for some time making some such
public statement Of his policy SIS that embod-
led in his letter to Greeley. Some days before
Gfeeley's letter Was published the president
read to friend Q rough draft Of whatnow ap-
pears in the form Of his reply to Greeley,
and asked his advice about publishing it..
So novel thing as q newspaper cor
respordence between the president and
an editor excites considerable comment. Mr..
Lincoln does SO many original and singular
things that everybody has ceased to be eur
prised ut him, and hence the violation OF pre-
ccdent In this matter does not provoke SO
much remark as might be expected. The
National InttNigeneer, in publishing the letter,
attempts to read Greeley 8 lesson On good
manners, by Suggesting that if he replies, he
should do it in good temper.
Foreign news becomes more faTorabla. It
is said at the state department that our foreign
affairs have never been in SO safe . situation
since the outbreak Of the rebellion IS nor,
The possibility Of italian complications is re-
garded as certain to ensure to ou7 benefit, an6
the fact that G00. .0c1 INC re troops are ginning
to come in is producing the most fs1oEab1t
impression Of our resources, and Of the ex
pediercy Of letting US alo1e.

TO leave any one in doubt. I :.onld
eave the Union. would save it in the short
est way under the constitution. Tne sooner
the national authority con be restored the
sooner the Union will be the Union as it was.
If there be those who would not save the
Union unless they could at the same time save
slavery, do not agree with them. If there
be those who would not save the Union unless
they could at the same time destroy slavery, I
do not agree with them. by paramount
object is to save tie Union, aud not
either to save or destroy slavery. IT could
save the Union without freeing any slaves I

believe it helps 10 save this Union, and what
