WASHINGTON, July g. Messages to the AS
ISOLATED Press received from Frederick tonight:
say Information which can be relied upon comes
from the front, this morning, to the following
purport ..... .au
The rise of the Potomac has checked the pas
sage of the rebel army. A small portion of Gen.
Lees transportation have crossed on RATS at
Williamsport and Shspherdstown, and his stock
swan over. l9
! His ambulance trains, with wounded, have
also crossed, but his supply trains, artillery, in
'fantry and cavalry, are reported nearly all on
this side. ~ H. -
His first line of battle has been formed ON the
Antietam fields. Should this prove true, he
cannot receive reinforcements, and he will be
compelled to trust the fate of his army to the
arbitrament of a bloody field, ,a a.rr.Y
Our forces are gradually concentrating in that
direction. The hopes and prospects of annthila-
ting the whole army are bright. .,.
At last advices Lee was concentrating his
forces by every available route. Fearing an at
tack, yesterday morning he planted his batteries
on every road by which we were likely to ap-
proach.
Buferd and Fitzpatrick with their cavalry
divisions, made demonstrations in the direction
of WIliamsport, but were unable to pene trate
Lees army.
The reports as to the existence Of rebel
bridges at Wllliamsport are conflicting, but the
general impression at Frederick is that none
have been built.
Gen; Meade and staff have arrived at their
headquarters.
A considerable force has paobably reached
che vicinity of Williamsport
WASHINGTON, July s. No information has
been receive from Williamsport UP to 20 clock

there yesterday, although it s probable that
Gen Sedgwick has done the enemys rear much

From the Logan (O.) Gazette.
Our New system of Government

The Republicans, with'a view, no doubt,
to the public good, have saved the people
from the expense and trouble of revision
and amendment of their Constitution in the
mode prescribed by law. To alter the form
of Government in purely legal manner,
would cause delay, expense, and excite dis
cussion. 1t has, therefore, been reform ed
by "orders'' of military commandants. This
cheap and summary mode of reconstruction
is new in this country; but it has repeat eddy
been tried on the continent of Europe, and
found to work WELL especially IN strengthen
ing "the Government"
By "order," the States have been, to all
intents and purposes, obliterated from our
political system, and Departments" sub
stituted. Departments" are param cunt,
and of higher authority" than the States
1t is unperstood, however, that Governors .,
Legislatures and civil Courts, Mill be toler-
ated for time, subject to the control and
government of the commandants of the re-
spective Departments" This is very gra-
cious, when we consider that in the new sys-
tenn there is no use for Governors, Judges,
and Legislators, as all their functions can be
better performed by the commandant.
The people may consider themselves re-
lieved from the burdensome task of self
government. The time they have hereto
fore wasted In the discussion of public mea-
sures, in attending public meetings, lee
:ions, &C., they may now devote to the work
necessary to raise money for the purpose of
'internal revenue" &C., or in military drill.
A vety great saving, indeed. cd ..,|
The question, so often propounded at the
of the war, "have we a Gov
ernm ent?" is solved affirmatively. It is q
fact that will never be drawn in dispute
hereafter.

General Bllet,s Expedition.


CAIRO, ApriI3O.-General Ellet's Marine
Brigade, on their return from an expedition
up the Tennessee River, were fred upon BY
rebels under Major White. The fire was
returned by the gunboats, when the rebels
fed with loss Of 10. killed and 20 wound
ed-Major White MORALLY. Our loss was
2 killed and 4. wounded. General Eilst has
d estroy ed every. grist-n1ill, saw-mill and
distillery on the Upper Tennessee, besides
half million feet of lumber. The towns
of Hamburg and Easport we're also destroyed.
A special dispatch from Memphis says
ad vices had been received from Young's
Point up to Sunday. General Grant was at
Carthage. It was thought that the rebel
rams mp the Yazoo were ready to come out.
A raft had been cut to pieces, it having
foated out.
1t is doubtful whether any of the six trans
ports which attempted to run by the batter
les at Vieksburg or the night Of the 23d,
succeeded in passing. -Four of them are
known to be sunk; aud the other two, if they
got by, are badly damaged. the firing on
the transports was terrific, comm encing at
midnight and continued until daylight.
A dispatch from Millikin's Bend, dated
the Oath, says orders were'issued on the 23d
for the whole army to march, with six days
rations.

Governor of Kentucky.

Joshua F. Bell is reported by telegram to
have declined the honor of running as the
Union candidate for Governor of Kentucky;
and the same authority says that Thomas
E. Bramlette has been designated as the
candidate in place of Bell. The reader will
remember that Bell ran against Magofiu, in
1859, for Governor; and the chief plank of
his platform was Congressional protection to
slavery, albeit he had Heretofore been
deemed an emancipatioHist. We suppose
his self-made record of $50 was too fresh in
bis own memory to induce him to hazard
the discussions of a canvass and he has
backed out. Bramlette, however, will no
doubt take the field with alacrity. He was
a lawyer of. merely mediocre talents ard
attachments, formerly wing, then know
nothipg--then and oppositionists-aDyt thing
against the Democracy-Colonel of the first
regiment encamped at Camp Dick Robinson,
and CoioneliDg while holding the Office of
Circuit Judge-then U. s. District Attorney
after the death of Hsrlan-now Abolitionist
and candidate for Governor. That's the
exact run of things as they are going OF in
Kentucky, and it will assuredIy go through
to the end if Abolition bayonets can effect
the object; for Lincoln's party was organized
from the first for the purpose of abolishing-
slavery even. if 1t involved the destruction
of the Union.

Arrest of Ya11andigham.

1t viii be seen by one Of the dispatches
copied from "a Cincinnati paper, that the
Hon. Clement L. Vallandigham, thrice elect.
ed a,msmber of Congress. from. tba1 Dayter

no intimation whatever as to the cause oil
his arrest. He was conveyed from Dayton
to Cincinnati and lodged in military pri-
Sod We are inclined to the opinion this
arrest was Intended to be feeler of the
backbone Of the Ohio Demo crazy; for no
man oEany brains or soul, who has capacity
to think and independence to speak, but
must condemn it as gross violation of the
constitution and laws. The Federal au-
thoIity7 is undisputed in Ohio-the Courts
uuobstructsd-andif Mr.. Yallandigham had
been guilty of any crime. he could have
been tried, convicted and punished. But
he,has, no doubt, been arrested by military
authority, precisely because be had done
nothing under which he could be convicted
under any honest civil tribunal in christen-
dom. We do not approve of all Mr.. VAL
landlgham's opinions or course as to public
affairs, and cannot defend them at all points;
but nevertheless we sincerely believe him to
be really more truly loyal to the govern
m ent, more really patriotic, than Abe Lin
colni or any of his Cabinet, or any of his
supporters, who uphold him in his a,ts vio-
latiye of the constitution and laws; for Lin
cola himself admits, and none of his sup
porters dare deny, that he has deliberately
violated the constitution and laws, and has
gos,passed through subserVient Congress q
bill-ofindemnity which lays in the shade
the acts ofthe British Parliament protesting
the Stuarts from the effects of their lawless
tyranny; while Vallandigham has first and
last, insisted on adhering to the constitution
In ali things. That. and nothing else, is his
ofense.' But, though all men of intelligence
know, as all honest men will say, that we
have no government or Union, to which any
citizen owes allegiance, except that operated
by constitutional measures for constitutional
ends5syet, for any man. now adays, to de-
mand adherence TOT the constitution, is, in
the view Of our rulers, to avouch himself
a rebel and traitor; and so Vallandigham is
lawlessly arrested and imprisoned by an
authority which the constitution declares
shall be strictly subordinate to tha civil
authority.

Fcouhict-and the carnage perfectly fright

ded Rebels covered the ground in heaps;
the Rebels literally throwing themselves
upon the muzzles of our guns. Motifs

captured even stand of Rebel colors; the
7th New York alone, captured four stand OF
colors and 500 prisoners.
Part of COUGHS I'd corps was present.
Hancock, CALAMITY going to his relief, was

an hour at the point of the bayonet Up
on being re-supplied they fell back in good

The enemy is now no longer in our rear
but directly in our front, between US and our
forces in Fredericksburg. We are occupying
fortified and entrenched positions. The
enemy gained some ground, but at sacri-
fee, of FIVE of his seven divisions.
On Sunday P. M. the Rebels made sever
al attempts to force our lines, several Of his
batteries and regiments being actually de-
stroyed in attempts to carry an apex ia our
position, near Chancellor House, where a
large quantity of our artillery is massed.
Our present position is impregnable.-
Gen. Lee ordered that our lines must be
broken at al hazards, but the Rebels will
only destroy themselves by their attacks.
Our troops are cool and confident. Rebel
General Hill is reported killed. General
Berry was killed while leading his brave
men.

Greedy, in late article in the New Y ork
Tribune, thus praises the patience OF the
people. He says:
in the ardor of our souls-and it is an ex-
ceediDgly creditabe ardor-we are pleased
to be hum plugged, and swindled, and ch eat
ed, and robbed-to be taxed upon all we eat,
and drink, and wear-to ubmt to a rise in
gold, in dry goods and groceries-to be paid
in shinplasters and to pay with the same
to write even our love-letters upon brown
paper-to bear one penny adYance upon our
newspaper--to subscribe literally to the
Ladies' Society for furnishing wooden legs
to wounded soldiers and broth and Jelly to
the convalescent while we live upon por-
ridge, to the great disgust of the younger
branches of the family, who bawl beef as
loudly as John Hook did in the American
camp, and as if it were to be had of benevo-
lent butchers without shinplasters and with
out price! The nation is enduring, and is
willing to endure, materially and mentally,
to the end-but is not it shame to swiEdle
such good-natured people? Is not it a
shame that pack of mer, numerically not
equal to the population of village, W hich,
perhaps. has sent off charitable box to the
poor soldiers every month since the war
broke out-that a corps of contractors
should, ali this time, be amassing colossal
fortunes. and buying his brown-stone houses,
and setting up dashing equipages, and pro-.
sentiDg their danes with India shawls and
their daughters with diamond necklaces?'

1.-THE latest news from America makes it
abund aDtly evident, if it were not SO before,
that the ch dice henceforth for the South is
between victory and extermination for the

Northern Confederacy, though able to effect
the fruitless crime of drowning whole pro-
Vinces by breaking down the banks Of q
mighty river, is incapable of defending her
