To-day, when between Versailles and

twenty-five hundred Of Gen. DumonGs

him, scattering his forces In every direc-

One report says he was driven across
the Kentucky river in the direction Of
Lawrenceburg; and another that he is
endeavoring TO unite his force with Hum

We regret TO sec efforts made in some
quarters TO decry the cavalry service, as
branch Of the army which does not re-
turn benefits At all equal to the cost and
trouble Of its organization. We regard
this as a great mietske II is true that
the infantry constitutes the main strength
Of the army, but at the same time it is
Of great importance that our cavalry
should be constantly strengthened, and
diligently trained and disciplined We
trust that the war may not last great
while longer, as general thing, but at
the same time, we do apprehend, for sew
eral years TO come, a species Of resistance
to the Federal authorities, which can be
met successfully, and suppressed from
time to time, by cavalry alone. We must
remember that from the beginning of the
war the rebels have been placing great
reliance on their cavalry, and have had
this branch Of the service in constant
training twill give us serious trouble
hereafter unless we prepare TO crush it
out now, and as il takes three years to
perfect cavalry man, the sooner we be-
gin TO train our soldiers in this depart
ment the better. Even after the masses
of the rebel armies shall have been
swept from the field, or have melted away
by desertion and disbanding, such OUT
laws as FoRREsT, MORGAN, STEWART and
others, will retain troops Of mounted ban
dts, who will retreat TO some strong
hold, and subsist by depredations upon
the surrounding country. We shall need
a strong cavalry force as a police
to pursue and cut off these gangs, and
also to suppress instantly the first symp-
toms of resistance which may be made
here and there, for some time, by turbu-
lent spirits. Let US provide powerful
cavalry force. TO neglect this important
work now, may cost the nation years Of
trouble

Senator Douglas on the Suspension
Of the Writ Of Habeas Corpus.

Senator Douglas on the Suspension
Of the Writ Of Habeas Corpus.
The following il an extract from the
celebrated speech Of Judge DouaLAs on
the bin to refund the fine imposed on
General JAoKsos, by Judge HAIL Of New
Orleans, delivered in the House Of Repre-
sentatiyes;
The necessity, and the glorious effect
resulting from the cause which that ne
cessity prompted, were acknowledged by
the whole country, and, he would even
say, by the whole civilized world. Then,
as far as this bill was concerned, he (Ar
D. could not say whether their acts were
legal or illegal. He cared not whether
General jackson violated the Constitu-
ton or not He cared not whether Gem
eral jackson suspended all civil author
ity or not
II bis acts were necessary TO the de-
tense Of the country, that necessity was
above all law. General Jackson hazard
ed erything; be hazarded both life and
reputation on that step, which might
render him immortal il he saved the
country, or, on the contrary, make him
ignomiuious, aud a by-word and re-
proach; and the man that dared to do
that deserved the protection and plaudits
of his country. He did not envy the
feelings Of that man who could get up
and talk calmly and coolly, under such
circumstances about rules Of court and
technicalities of proceeding, when the
city might be in flames, and the utmost
barbarity might be committed. What
were rules of court but mere cObwebs
when they found an enemy with his can
non az the doors Of their courts, and they
saw the flames encircling the cupols2
Talk then about the rules of court and
the formalities of proceedings? The
man that would do this would fiddle
while the capital was burning. He could
not envy any man the possession of such
stOical philosophy.
Talk sabout illegality! Talk about
formalities Why, there was but one
formality 10 be observed, and that was
the formality of directing the cannon,
and destroying the enemy regardless Of
the means, whether it be by the seizure
of cotton bags, or the seizure of persons
if the necessity Of the case required it,
The God of Nature had conferred this
right on men and nations and, there
fore, let him not be told that it was un-
constitutional To defend the country,
let him not be told that it was unconsti-
tutional TO use the necessary means. The
Constitution was adopted for the protec
ton of the country, and under that Con-
Che nation had the right TO ex-
ercise all the powers that we're necessary
for the protection of the country. If mar
tial law was necessary TO the salvation of
the country, martial law was legal for
that purpose. If it was necessary for
judge, for the preservation of ORDER TO
punish for a contempt, he thought il was
necessary for a general 70 exercise con-
troll over his cannon, to imprison traitors
and to arrest spies, and to intercept COM
with the enemy. If this
was necessary, this was legal.

Acts Of Vandalism.

The rebels lay hold Of every excess
committed by individual soldiers Of the
Federal army, and hold them up as ar
guments against the Union cause. To
hear one Of these proud and selfish
rebels denounce Yankee thieves" and
"Lincoln robbers" one might imagine
that the sweet-scenied chiyalry were all
noted for their INSCRIPTIONS adherence
70 justice and military discipline. But
the history Of this rebellion shows that
the rebel armies, as booty, are pillagers
and plumbers. Look at Bowling Green
and the surrounding country last winter;
look at Virginia and Maryland; look at
the depredations of Bragg and Smith in
Kentucky few days ago. The Knox
willie Register, Of The 18th inst, com
plains that the Confederate soldiers were
eacking that country and the following
extract from letter in the Jackson Ms
sisappian, from a correspondent in PRIcE's
army, thus describes the retreat Of the
rebels after the battle Of Iuka
Acts of vandalism, disgraceful to the
army, were perpstrated along the road,
which made me blush TO own such men
az my countrymcn.
Corn fields were laid waste, potato
patches robbed, barn yards and smoke
houses despoiled hogs killed, and all
kind Of outrage peipetratea IN broad day.

on the march up and on the retreat, 10llether 1
a0a8 IN an army Of brace men, fighting for
their country, or merely following 6and q
armed aagauders, who are as terrible TO
their friends as foes. ] once thought
General Bragg too severe in discipline,
but am satisfied none but the seyerest
discipline will restrain men upon
march.
The settlements through which we
passed were made to pay heavy tribute
to the rapacity of our soldiers, and !
haze no doubt that lOomen and children cttt
cyy for the bread lo]ich his been qudely taken
from them by those who should
have protected and defended them.
This 2lunder, too, lcas loitiout excuse, for ra-
lions acre regularly issued every night, and
though the men did not get their meals
as punctually 40 in camp, still there was
no absolute suffering TO justify such con-
duct and il deserves the severest repro
baton.
Now, we have animadverted with Sc
verify on the conduct Of some Federal
soldiers and officers here, especially the
latter, for they are the really responsible
persons, and are so regarded by the Ar
my orders and regulations; but here is |
= state Of affairs, catalogue Of outrages, |
not TO be charged upon the Union army.
We call attention, too, to The different
circumstances under which these depre-
dations have been committed. Some OF
our soldiers acted improperly after being |
confined to half rations Of hard bread,
but according 70 the declaration of this
rebel correspondent of rebel newspaper,

SHAMETUL.-We hear repeated COM
plants from various parties, that some
of the soldiers engaged in pressing ne
groes, are in the habit of taking black
mail Of some Of the negroes, and then
letting them of. The charge comes to us
from sources which we cannot doubt.
The offence is shameful one. and de-
mands immediate and severe punishment
We can imagine nothing more mean, and
odious. We trust that the business Of
impressing will be placed in the hands
of persons who will not abuse it, and
under the immediate control Of respon-
sible officers.
