WASHINGTON, June 3, 1868.
Richmond papers Of last Monday and Tues
day, 1st md Sd inst ,haye been received. from
which the following are extracts:
CHATTANOOGA, May 29.-Vallandigham is
still at 6hclbyrille. &c says that willie m
exile be Is confident Of Kind and hospitable
trca'ment and consideration from generous
people 9Hc desired to avoid all public ap.
pearance or demonstration, and to live in
some retired place as retired gentleman.
He is fully sensible that as an alien enemy his
residence in the Confederacy is solely allowed
by The generous consent Of the govern
ment and people, until he can return home In
s,fety. He is confident his character is well
enough known to satisy all that he is incapa~
bic Of any words or acts whilst here or On bis
return to Ohio, inconsistent with the rein
tions he sustains towards the South during
Ills sojourn among us.
The report Of Mrs. Vallandjgham's insanity
is fabrication. She wrote to her husband
week ago, entrcating him not to dcyiate from
his high path Of duty, honor and patriotism.
Va1landjgham, after the sentence OF tho Court
Mai tial, ras kept In close confinement. Only
RoEecrans' staff officers were allowed to COM
municate with him. He states that dis
gust and dissatisfaction prdvails to great cx-
:ent in tho Northwest. and people will certain
u rise and throw of Linco1n's hatcdyoke.
From the Dixpateh and other Richmond pa.
pers likewise compile the to1lo~ wing:
1.-The Vlrginia election, which took place
last week, has probably resulted III the cleo
lion Of extra Blly Smith for Governor orer
F1ournoy, Muruford and Wise.
Governor Ietcher has been defeated for
Congress BY Col. Baldwin. Col Wickham is
elected In the Richmond District Alexander
Boteler is defeated By Coloncl::Halljday. Price
is probably elected Lieutenant Governor over
Inn5odtn. General Ewel has succeeded to the
active command Of Jackson's corps.

The Canal Convention closed its Ia
bors yesterday afternoon, and adjourned.
Though the action Of the body was not
what the friends of the Illinois and mchi-
gan Canal Enlargement expected, it is q
stcp in adyance-a recognition in some
sort Of the growing claims Of the West,
and Of the vital national necessity Of listen
ing to her demands upon the justice, not
the generosity, Of the Republic. The
recent concentration here, in this, the gate
way which opens into the vast occi-
dental Empire, Of the men Of talent
and influence who were in attendance
upon the deliberations Of the Convention :;
The display before the representatives Of
all the loyal States, Of the vast sources Of
wealth and power OF which the West can
boast, and the concentration Of public at
1cntion, even momcntafily, upon the great
themes under discussion will be Of incalcu-
liable advantage. As the means Of fixing
The attention Of the next Congress, and Of
making popular opinion in tavor OF what
The West asks, the gathering will exert an
influence that can be hardly over estimated.
The seed Of good fruit has been abundant
II sown VIC await The day Of the bountiful
harvest, with the assurance that it will
quickly come.

The Star thinks an honest confession of

WAIT AWHILE,


Until the public rind is somewhat calm
ed down and quieted, we do not propose
to discuss the legality or Illegally, the ne
cessity OF the needlessness Of the action Of
the Government in the suppression Of the
organ Of JEFF. Davis, in this city. We may
Bay, however, that the act ifever justifable,
has been too long de1erred7 that the au-
fhorilics hayc waited until the dragons
teeth were 6oWn; and that the excitement
and exasperation that have followed the
deed might have been easily avoided by
more timely proceedings The 1i"aes has
no defenders. The most malignant
Of the opponents Of the war policy
care not say that its course is
5ustifable by any canons Of criticism, or
any Of the rules Of patriotism. And though
they may deprecate the manner Of its TAX
ing Of, none approve and few extenuate
the crimes Of which it has been guilty.
But We would not needless]y add to the
causes which may deluge these streets
with blood; hence we refrain until we may
speak plainly and to calmer and more pa

General Burnside and Staff and Gen. Parke
md staff took their departure this morning
for Hickman's Bridge. The headquarters of
the Department are virtually still in the city.
n. u. Mclean, formerly Chief Of Staff to Gen.
Wright remains in charge. General Mclean,
Provost Marshal General, will also establish
his headquarters here.
The court martial has tried and found Reu-
ben Stout, Company Z. G0th Indiana, guilty

attempted to arrest him; and Henry z. Es-
top, Co. q, Ky., infantry, Of des=rtion and
joining the rebel army, and sentenced them
to be shot ut Johnson's Island On June 2Gth.
Ambrose stadley, a guerilla, who vio1ated
LIS parole, and B. F. Grayes, = rebel soldier
acting as epy, were sentenced to be hung.
In the last two cases General Burnside does
lot approve the. sentence, because the time
and place is not set forth in the finding Of
the court, and he ccnsures the Judge AdTo-
cate, and orders the prisoners confined here
for the present.

From New Or1enus.

New YORK, June 3.-By the steamer Geo.
Cromwell, which arrived from New Orleans
this morning, We have the following:
Seyenty~fVe prisoners arrived at New Or
leans On the aGth, from Baton Rouge, among
them Ex-Governor Robert WicR}iffe, who was
captured near Port Hudson.
The Era Of the eth has the following:
Gen. Banks moved down the Red Riyer
with his army, and crossed to Bayou Sara,
thence to Port Hudson, where he united his
forces with Gen. Auger's. Tho gunboats
under Far7agut were to go up on the 24th.
The mortar feet opened fire on Port Hudson
on tic night Of the eth, silenclng several oi
the cnemy's guns. Port Hudson ID now, there.
fore, closely besieged and hemmed in, and
The fall Of this stronghold will be speedy even
should Gen. Banks not order IN assault -of
the works. Col. GrieEson is cooperating
with Banks. The garrison of Port Hudson Is
estimated at about 10, 600, and scantily sup.
rlitd with provisions.
The reported rebel iron.clad raid from Mo.
bile, and the capture Of two Of our ships ol
war. proves to be q canard.

GEN. BvRhSlDE'S new ORDER.
What the Times Require.
TIE DUTY OF EVERY LOYAL
CITIZEN.
He Will Strike at the Root Of
the Evil,

Especial Dispatch to tho Chicago Tribune.l
CINCINNATI, June 3, 1883
Gen. Burnside has issued General Order
No. 80 to-day, which is pretty lengthy: It
directs that Gen. Mclean, Provost Marshal
General shall ut once institute an investiga-
ton into the cases of all citizens now con-
fined in this department, and in all such cases
as do not clearly show premeditated dis1oY-
atty on the part Of the accused, OF when a de-
sire is manifested to atone for past faults By
future good conduct, the prisoners will be re-
leascd on taking the oath Of allegiance and
giving bonds for strict observance thereof
The General commanding is convinced that
a large majority Of the men arrested have
been m1sled By dishonest and designing poll
ticiane, and He PREFERS TO STRIKE At
THE SOURCES OF THE EVIL, and allow
those who have been led astray to return to
their loyalty aud allegiance, If they haye seen
the folly and sin Of opposing the Govern
ment.
The order then speaks Of the duty Of every
man In this crisis, where the Government is
Striving to suppress the rebellion, and says
the necessity demands q sacrifice from every
one.
The General argues that in yiel1iDg up civil
rights to eaye this country, the purity SO doing
is none the less citizen. The country re-
quircs no physical sacrifice, no personal hard
slips, but simply that he stall Initiate the
example Of The soldiers in the field, so fir as
TO abate somewhat OF that freedom
II speech which they give up en-
tirely; THAT FREEDOM OF DISCUS
SION AND CRITICISM WHICH IS PROPER
IN THE POLITICIAN AND TEE JOUR-
NAL1sT IN TINE or PEACE, BECOMES
RANK TREASON WHEN IT TENDS TO
WEAKEN THE CONFIDENCE OF THE
SOLDIER IN HIS OFFICERS AND
HIS GOVERNMENT. And when this
iusidious treason, striking at tho very
root Of that Military Power which IL
for the time being, the countEy's protection,
makes It's appearance, 1t is the bounden duty
Of the Commanding General to expel it from
his lines, with . heavier hand tllan lie would
drive from lis camp the villain who would
scatter material poison, that would encrvate
and decimate his soldiers. The General conf
mandipg desires to again call the attention of
all officers, Provost Marshals and others in
authority, to the necessity Of great care in
tho making Of arrests, which should. in all in
stances, be founded on full adidayits, sustain
ing distinct charges, except when the exigcn-
cles Of the case demand instant action.

The following is the text Of Col. D. Utassy's
