Gen. Scott praised i; so highly during lis ST.

been persuaded to ask tor. large Federal eX-

The Northern Disloxnlists.

There are few secession sympathizers in
congress who have attempted to ''reorganize
the democratic party They have held eau
cuseS, written letters, and attacked loyal men
and principles; but they have not denounced
the secession traitors. Vallandgham of Ohio
is one of the chief engineers of this move
ment, but he does not succeed well in persuad-
ing the democrats generally to follow him.
The address issued by this man and his asso-
ciates is not adapted to win the favor of loyal
men anywhere. Sem-seccssi0n journals at
the north have praised it; but it has been crit
cised by those whom its authors expected to
win, and nowhere more sharply than among
che Cnionists of Tennessee. The Nashville
Union, after naming its signers, goes on as
follows
Unavoidable absence, we presume. on
public business prevented the names of How
ell Cobb, jefferson Davis, Jesse d. Bright.
Humphrey Marshall, Gustavus A. Henry,
Wigfall, and Neil Brown, from adding their
luster to this newly -risen galaxy of patriots"
The same paper dcnounces the address in
the following style :
''What is the first duty of the people? TO
put down the rebellion, and restore the su-
premacy of the federal laws in the revoted
states. That is what we had thought. That
is what the loyal men of Tennessee, and Ken
lucky, and Missouri, and Virginia and Mary
land say, johnson, and Campbell, and Prem
tice, and John NJ. Bolts, and Gamble and 9TH
ers. Not one W0rd does this address Say ofDnt-
Ting dorm and crushing out the southern con-
spiracy. Ii utters no rebuke against the reb-
els. Itdeprecates neither bridge~burnng, nor
wire-cutting, nor guerilla marauding, nor de-
stroying railroad cars, nor any confederate
Outrages. 1t is dumb as the grave on the hor-
r0rs now sweeping over devoted East Tennes-
see, the home of martyrs and patriots. 1t
condemns not the barbarity of the rebel gov
crnment towards our gallant prisoners. 1t has
no condemnation of the infamous conscrip-
ton act, nor whitening inYective to pour out
like molten lava on the heads of the rebels
who are burning the cotton and sugar crops,
and desolating the south.
''Then it speaks no cheering word of con-
graduation for our gallant and heroic soldiers
who leave their farms, and shops and pleasant
firesides, TO save the government. and keen
step 10 the sublime music of the Union under
the flag of the republic. 1t does not even hint
what every intelligent man knows to be the
fact, that the prime and moving cause, the
fountain head and source of this rebellion,
is a determination on the part of southern Of
fice-holders and corrupt aristOcrats to destroy
free government and build up a monarchy or
aristocracy on the ruins of democratic insti-
tuition. The man who is ignorant of this is
ignorant Of the speeches, addresses, resolu-
tions and newspapers Of the cotton states for
the last twenty years.

The military situation.


The latest intelligence from the principal
military departments is incomplete, but still
fp}l of interest The lines of communication
,,itl, the pnblic are under strict restraint-we
are bound to presume with good cause.
Enough, however, appears, to occasion deep
anxiety, and restless desire for authentic in
telligence. Gen. Mcclellan has advanced
with his command very near Richmond
within hearing of its bells-and is in the pres
cnce Of decisive action. From Manassas to
Richmond the rebels have conducted their re-
treat with great skill; hut at every backward
step they have been driven to the wall. Thus
far Gen. Mcclellan has fulfilled his promise;
he is still confident of ultimate triumph; no
one at this distance from his field of opera
lons can have less than his. He has large
army, able and brave officers, and soldiers
Of unquestionable courage.
From 1.-THE west the usual means of commune
cation have been entirely destroyed. Gen.
Halleck has little patience with any one in his
department who docs not bear arms. He is,
however, known to be an officer of large ac-
compishments, has an army strong in num-
bers, well disciplined and Of approved brave
ry. His advances, though made through a
hostile country, have been skillful and eau
uous. He has, on the other hand, to contend
with desperate people, who have been driv-
en- from one stronghold TO another, exaspera-
ted without being apparently weakened by de-
feat, strengthened rather by conscription and
threats Of every kind They have also devel-
oped unexpected resources in the num-
Der Of their fighting men, in the supply
and quality of their arms, and in the
force which they have been able TO
throw out from the main body of their army
on every side. We do not, however, doubt the
result of either of the conflicts, now obvious
ly near at hand. Every soldier under the old
flag is strengthened by the consciousness that
he Is fighting for a just cause, and will not be
contented with anything but its adequate and
complete triumph.
In other departments there is no immediate
danger 1t might bet as desirable that
better progress should be made towards OBJ
tanning control of the disloyal sections nomi-
nally in our power, eptwhere, as in every
gulf department. treason finds as many, if not
as audacious champions as it has had any
time within the past year. General Butler
needs to be strengthened General Hunter
hpsn't half force enough for the duties
required Of him. Gen. Burnside, who i.
more favorably situated, is achieving bctteI
results. But without increase of troops, o
change of policy in regard to the slaves VIII
are on the side Of the Union there may h
abundant cause to deplore the policy whic
prevails in regard to the use of them.

Shameful Scenes in washington.

From the National Republican ed
Early Wednesday afternoon, two men. one
| armed with a large whip, were seen with ne
gro between them, urging him on towards the
city hail. He was hatleSs, and dressed rs q
dining room or house servant. All parties
were excited and an excited crowd followed
them 1t was evidently another of those bru-
TAI fugitive slave cases, which are now be-
coming common in this free district. and
which are already filling the country with in
ugnatlon. As the victim approached the
city hall, gentleman, who had lust left
the circuit court, inquired of the man
Win the whip whether he had a pro-
cess for the negro. The answer was. .sNone
OF your business !" But the gentleman insist
ed upon seeing the authority, which was again
rudely refused. In the meantime, the negro
was taken before commissioner Phillips. who
granted the gentleman a sight of the warrant
Having read the document, the gentleman i'm
medlately volunteered to defend the colored
man, before the commissioners, and at once
submitted the following propositions First
w hether the commissioner will exercise his
discretion i'll allowing defendant to cross
examine claimants witness? Second-whetb-
er ne Will allow testimony contradictory to
mat OF claimant as to identity and loyalty.
The case thus suddenly assumed an impor
tant aspect, and the circuit court adjourned.
so that these points might be argued before a
tull board Of commissioners The defend
ants counsel made an able argument, and the
commissioners decided in his favor. The no.
bic hearted man, who thus generously and
humanely volunteered to defend the helpless
slave against the harpes who seek to carry
MN OH was Hon. john Dean of BROOKLYN.
