TE,R War News.

We devote much of our space to accounts
from the seat of War. We were in hopes that
we should be able to record the fall of Vicks-
burg this week, but the siege holds out yet
There is still no doubt of the final capture of
the place. The efforts of Johnston to raise a
rebel force sufficient to assail Grants rear has
thus far proved failure and at this time there
is little fear of his interfering with our opera
tons in the reduction of Vicksburg. That is
matter of time only. We are assured that
Grant could take the place at any moment
by assault, but he prefers to take little more
time, and save his men.
Gen. Banks still invests Port Hudson, and
at latest accounts had just completed his pre-
parations for opening upon the whole line of
the enemys works with his heavy seige guns
We hope our next accounts from there will
be of the fall of the place
Positions seem to remain unchanged in Ros-
ecrans' department.
We can hardly say that ''all is quiet on the
Potomac!' The rebel raid into MARYLAND
and Pennsylvania seems to have been great
ly magnifed, though from the conflicting &C
counts from that region, it is impossible to get
at definite idea of the affairs there One day
we are told that 40, 900 rebels are marching
on Harrisburg, Pittsburg and Philadelphia,
and the next that no rebel infantry has yet
been this side of Bull Run mountains Thus
one dispatch contradicts another in rapid sue
cession.

such, certainly cannot be maintained. & II
the cases where the question is raised and
all elementary writers concur Is saying
that an Endorsement may be on another
paper attached to, and made part of the
note. Such paper Is called an alloDge,
and IL Is true that the usual reason sta Ted
tor using such paper is that there is no
longer room on the note TO make the in
dorsement. But this does not mean that
there must be an actual physical Impossi
blhty TO write the indorser's name on the
original paper. On the contrary the usage
OF the mercantile law, is as Chief Justice
Marshal says " founded IL convenience. :"
And all that either its spirit or its letter
requires Is that when IL is lnconvenient to
write on the back of the note the real
contract between the vendor and the ven
dee. and which II so written would pass
the title, It may De written on another
paper and attached to it with like effect
Thus suppose the consideration of an or
binary endorsement, was q sale of real es-
tate, AID the parues desired To express the
consideration. IL might be wholly unuec
essary, yet no one c. uld question their
right tO do SO. Suppose the description
OF the rea. estate was too long to be writ
ten CD the back of the note, and they
should write the Endorsement on another
p per containing the full description and
attach IL to The note. Could 1t be tor a
moment contended that it would not pass
the title | think not. Yet If not, il
must be because the spirit OF the mercan-
tile rule Is as above stated. And If such
IS Its spirit, the particular reason which
makes the contract too long 10 be written
on the note is wholly immaterial. All
that can be material Is thai il be a con
tract which II on the note would pass the
title, and that tor some reason it is lncon-
venlent TO write 1t on the note. When
this IL true the transfer msy be effected
by writing it Oh another paper attached
TO the note.

to people Of color, cannot fail 10 be of in.

Pennsylvania has a free negro popula-
ton Of Sc, $40, more than can be found in
any other of the Free States. The six
New England States have the following +:
Maine 1927, New Hampshire, 494, Yer,

Island 1852, Connecticut S,627, or altos

half the numberin our State. During the
last ten years Pennsylvania has added to
her colored population 1928, while New
York State has 81 less than she had in
1850.
The Superintendent says: 1.-THE greater
mildness OF the climate and a milder type

of population, the result of benevolent in
fluences, and its proximity to the slave-

as Chambers burg, where they remained
for a day or Two and then returned TO
Greencastle and Hagerstown. Since that

risbuTg, 10000 strong. at noon on Satur.
day, which is again said to lie followed by
Longstreet's corps. 1t is also asserted that
Gen. Lee and staff had also crossed the
Potomac which would indicate that Lee,
whole army is now north Of tbs Potomac.
This is about the condition Of affairs, so
far as the invaders are concerned, up to
Saturday evening last.
A large force is at Harrisburg, iuolsding
some ten thousand New York and New
Jersey troops, and formidable defensive
works are erected on the opposite side a
the river. We also learn that a largo
nsmber Of troop, estimated at 10000 to
30 1000 passed Tyrone eastward, on Sum
day last. II is supposed they must be e
portion OF Rosecrans' army. II so, there
is'good hope that oar State Capitol will be
successfully defended.
LATER. We have the Harrisburg Tel,
graph OF Monday morning. No attack
had been made upon Harrisburg. The
defensive works were pronounced to be
co mplete in every respect. A rebel pick
ct had been wounded and captured, and
brought TO Harrisburg. The rebels reach.
ed York on Saturday, by way Of Ge;teys.
burg, and on Sunday advancedon Wrights'
vile, where two regiments were stationed
-one under Col. Thomas, Collector o
Philadelphia, and the other under Col
Prick. They made but slight resistance
and then crossed the river TO Columbia
when the bridge was burned. Another
dispatch says the rebels made their ap.
p%earance on the opposite side of the river
from cambridge, with a rontocn tppin suf'
ficient to span the river.
1t is evident that Lees object is to at
tack Baltimore aud Washington, and that
the sole object OF .yheir visit to Pennsylya-
MIA was 10 cut off communication from The
North.
1t is also reported that Gen. Hooker
has been relieved and Gen. Mead appoint,
ed in his place.
1t is also said that Rockers army is on
the move, and is north Of Baltimore. II
so, a severe battle will he fought before
many days.
The advices from New Orleans repre-.
sent that Gen. Banks has suffered another
repulse at Port Hudson.
LATEST.-Last nights mail but con,
firms the accounts above stated. No ats
ack had been made upon Harrisburg, and
the rebels had fallen back from wrirhts>

Northern Central Railroad, had been de-
stroyed. Gen. Lee was reported at Cham
