T'he war and the President

This war is gar to saye the nation.
II is q war not only for ourselves but for
our children to the la'est generation. IL
involves interests of almost infinite mag
U:tudc. The men in power at Washing
ton are bat dust in the baance when
weighed against the destinies at stake.
70 whatever side they may shift, il is
nothing in its bearings upon the oblga-
tons of the war. Ii the President u
surps, impeach him. 80 the Constitution
provides. by the House of representa-
tives, AMI Try him By the Senate. Ii you
do not choose to do that, then bear with
him for the twenty one months he will
remain in Office. or SEEK TO change his
conduct by arraying against lin the
force Of public opinion. Take any of
these parts that you please, if y"u.tapk
if you think the President wrong. But
if YOU are ane maj, do'!t be guilty OF
tie madness. you are loyal man don't
be guilty of the faithlessness of saying
that If This creature of day does this,
or fails tn do that, the rebellion should
have its way and the nation go down.
You might a. well say that If the priest
at the altar docs not rightly preforIn his
duties, the Ark of the Covenant shall be
broken; and if the ministers Of the
Churach go astray, religion itself shall
be- adj joufed.

The Bulletin of this city has the fox
lowing special
CINCINNATI, June t.
Our direct advices from Vicksburgh to
the Both of Nav. For several days pro-
viousIy, quiet had prevailed all along the
line, broken only by occasional canuona-
ding.
The Commercial has dispatch dated
the 3Oth, saying, "Spades are once moro
trumps." We are erecting earthworks,
and are mining to blow the face out of
one or two Of tie retei forts, that ara
uuapprouchable otherwise. The ilea of
carrying he place BY storm seems to be-
sbandoi ed. The aaser and suter plan of
starving General Pemberton into sub
mission now finds favor everywhere.
A deserter came into orr lines this
morning. He represents that he was
n. by General Pemberton to communi-
cat verbally with Generals Johnston an i
Loring. The former is supposed to bs
between Big Black river and JACKSON
The inter was near Port Gibson. He
represents affairs in the city rs growing
desperate. Ab0at $4,000 Elective men
are there two-thrds of whom are kept
on the Notifications night and day, and
not allowed 10 be idle all instant OH any
pretext.
Gems. Pemberton, Lee, Reynolds, Sts-
venson and others are in the city. Most
Of the sick left before its investment.
Over loo women and children have
been killed b. our boInbardmsnt. The
euuboats inflicted no injury on the city.
Gen. Pemberton believed his rations wo'd
hold out 30 days, but urged johnson to
come to his relief within 10 days at the
fart herest.
Cavalry horses Lave been turned loose
and driven towards our lines owing to
the scarcity Of forage. There was am
mention enough to last 60 days, with
the exception Of gun caps-they were
scarce.
All confidently expect suporluman eff
fo,ts to be made by those outside to ra'se
the siege. They consider Vicksburg the
strongest place in the Coufederacv.
Goa. Blair has met no enemy in force,
and the reports Of Johnston being near
are dsbelieved. Banks, with reinforce
ments, is reported near here. but like ma
ny other rumors, it may IIaye little forn-
daiion in fact
Thi. morning the heaviest canhona-
ding of the siege was kept up without
Intern; ssien for nearly three hours. New
batteries have lately heen put in position
AMI $50 guns are playing on the city.
At daylight this morning the firing
was rapid beyond belief. The reports of
the guns along the Whole Hue averaged
one second for minutes together.
