An Admission.

From II copy oftho Louisvill Journal
of the 4th ultimo, in our possession, We
extract the following admission as to
the effect and policy Of the Butfoon's
Emancipation Proclamation.
One of the chief reasons, urged by
the republicans to justify the issue of
the Presidents proclamation, was that
the tide of public sentiment abroad was
setting strongly against US, and, that
the policy Of the proclamation was nee
eSsary to turn it. We were ~oracularly
told, that nothing but this policy could
prevent foreign Governments from be.
ing forced by the public sentiment of
their people into mediation and inter
~vention in our affairs; and we were We.
hemently appealed to, on this ground.
to acquiesco in the proclamation as a
great State necessity.
But how miserabIy disappointed the
advisers Of the proclamation have been.
After the document was issued, they
watched, with high and eager expecta.
ton, for the next intelligence from
across the Atlantic. They entertained
no doubt that one universal shout
would go up from all Europe to the
honor and glory Of the U. S. Govern.
ment. But instead Of finding their en-
thusiastic an~ticipations realized, they
were doomed to hear the taunts, the
laughter and execrations of the Euro.
pean press and people. We we're re-
garded as having made u humiliating
confession Of weakness and as being
driven in u extremity to wage a sys.
TEN Of waItare shocking to the moral
sense Of all civilized men. And HOW
we find that the Emperor of France
makes use Of this very proclamation
issued for the removal OF all danger OF
interference in our affairs, to Justify
himself in his proposed interference.
In the hope Of winning the good will OF
foreign Powers, our Government di.
vidOs the North which WAS unanimous
in It's support, consolidates against it..

cites ridiculo and dcnunciation abroad,

October Is, 863.-Colonel-I have the hon-
or to forward you the following letter. received
few days since from Sergeant W. H. Car
ney, Company g, of this Regiment. Mention
has before been made Of his heroic conduct in
preserving the American flag, and bearing it
from the field, in the assault on Fort Wagner
Of the 18th of July last but that You may
have the history complete, send simple
statement Of the facts as / have obtained them
from him, and an officer who was an eve wit
ness:- NAA = ~ Hte- -s
When the sergeant arrived to within about
one hundred yards of the fort, (he was with
the first battalion, which was in the advance
of the storming column) he received the regi-
mental colors, pressed forward to the front
rank, near the Colonel, who was leading the
men over the ditch. He says, as they ascend
ed the wall of the fort, the ranks were full,
but as soon as they reached the top, they
melted away before the enemy's fire almost
instantly. He received severe wound in the
thigh, but fell only upon his knees. He
planted the Flag upon the parapet, lay down
on the outer slope that he might get as much
shelter as possible; there he remained for
over half an hour till the Second Brigade
came up. He kept the colors flying untiIthe
second conflict was ended.
When our forces retired he followed, creep
ing on one knee, stu holding up thefag. 1t
was thus that Sergeant Carney came from
the field, having held the emblem of Liberty
over the walls of Fort Wagner during the
sanguinary conflict of two brigades, and hay-
ing received two very severe wounds, one in
the thigh and one in the hand. Still he re-
fused to give up his sacred trust until he
found an officer of his regiment
When he entered the field hospital, where
his wounded comrades were being brought in,
they eheered him and the colors. Though
nearly exhausted with the loss of blood, he
said, Boys, the old Flag neuer touched the

excitement was caused yesterday, in the viii
lage Of Rouse's Point and St. Adams, by the
report that body of secessionists in Montreal

Information of such plot reached Governor
Smith and Collector eIapp Of this port on
