B~JEwtsu FESTIVAL Yesterday (Sun-
day. the Jewish festival of Rashashonah
was observed by the Jewish people. 1t
will continue until Tuesday at sunset. It
commences the month Tishry, and is the
anniversary of the creation eff the world,
which is by the Israelitish computation,
1924 years old. The festival is observed
as Sabbath-no work of any kind being
performed in any Jewish family. A fast is
observed up to the time of tho sounding
of the sophar or cornet, which is blown
about noontide.
On the 18th day of Nissan (the 2sth of
September) is celebrated the feast of the
Tabernacle, or SuccoA, which continues
during a week. The first day is one of holy
convocation; no servile work is to be per-
formed. For seven days an offering is to
be made, and the eighth day is again a
day of solemn assembly During the whole
time the Israilites are commanded to dwell
in booths; and many families partake of
their meals during the continuance of the
festival, under a canopy of branches. The
dwelling in booths is Commemorative of
the residence allowed the children of Isra-
ell when they escaped from Egypt, and
during the period of their wandering in
the desert. The prophet Zachariah pro-
claimed that, whoever of the families of
the earth should not go up to, Jerusalem
TO worship, should receive no rain. Even
the Egyptians, who needed no rain, should
be smitten with plague if they neglected
to worship the Lord of Hosts. In this
festival offering is made, on ac-
count of the gathering of the fruits of the
season.

bg UNION REFUGEE FRon THE sourH

baP UNION REFUGEE FRoM THE SOUTH.
A few mornings ago man named john
Egan, applied to the Mayor of Cleveland
for relief and funds to reach his fricndsin
Rochester, New York. Egan's history, as
related by himself, is as follows: Three
years ago he went from Rochester, N. Y,
to Petersburg, Va, where he was engaged
to manage stationary engine. On the
breaking cut of the rebellion he remained
true to the Union, and refused to join the
rebel army.
Iu March, 1862, he was in Richmond,
and being incautious in his remarks, he
was ordered to take the oath of allegiance
to the rebel government, which he refused
to do he was thrown into Libby Prison,
where he remained three months, and was
released at the intercession of the British
Consul, whose protection he sought claim
ing to be British subject, Egan being of
Irish birth.
Finding it unsafe to reside in the "Con-
federacy," 90 the 18th of August, he left
RoCkbridge county, Va, where be had been
living, and after enduring many penis ana
hardsbips he succeeded in reaching the
Federal lines at Charleston, Western vir-
GINA, on the 9th of August, where, faint,
hungry, and exhausted, he took the oath
of allegiance to the United States Govern
ment, and says ne thanked God that he
once more drew free breath, which he
had not done for three years.
He was clad in an old coat, coarse shirt
pants of stuff not much better than COM
mon bagging, straw hat and clumsey shoes.
He bought the articles in Rockbridge cOun
ty, at the following prices in confederate
money: Shoes SIT, pants $40, shirt $40,
hat SIS, common red handkerchief So. BE

but they sold nothing except to the army.

whoever condemns it, or asserts that it is
impolitic or unwise, impairs popular conf
dence in the administration and its party,
thereby disturbing and destroying the de-
sired unity of the people, who will then
cease to be harmonious in crying out
"Great are the Thirty of Washington "
and "Great is ABRAHAM of Springfield "
therefore, all such are destroyers Of conf
dence in the wisdom and patriotism of the
Republican party, and public enemies, who
deserve to be punished as rebels and
traitors.
True enough, "there is nothing new

4 Ram Below Vicksburn.

Rebel dispatches confirm our OVID of
Sunday morning, about the ram Queen
OF the West running the rebel batteries at
Vicksburg. 1t is said that several others
are about to undertake the same feat. All
the rebel steamers between Vicksburg and
Port Hudson, distance of three hundred
miles will probably be destroyed or COM
PEELED to "hunt their holes," and rebel
communications with Texas and Louisiana
will be, in measure, cut Off The follow
ing is dispatch in the Chicago Tribune
relating to the exploit of the Queen of the
West:
The ram Queen of the West ran the blockade
and braved the rebel batteries. on Monday
morning, at daylight. Over 100 heavy siege
guns belched forth their contents upon her as
she steamed swiftly past. The noise of cannon
aiding was terrific A rebel boat also opened
fire upon the Queen which the Queen return
ed, and crippled the rebel steamer The Queen
then passed to the foot of the canal, and there
stayed until l 2. NJ, when she left for the point
below. A line of lower batteries then opened
upon her. The Queen went through in safety
nobody hurt. 1t is fact, the accomplish
ment of which should make Capt Sutheriands
name stand among the best and bravest Union
officers. The Queen, at the lower batteries,
was under fire for three quarters of an hour.

hire and incidental expenses, exceeds six

plies to Clerks whose compensation ox-
ceeds that amount.
Some idea will be given of the i'm
mense labor in the New York post office,
when the fact is mentioned, that on one
day last week, in addition to the usual
work, there were received by steamer from
Newbern, N. g., $4,000 letters; Port

The Charges of Cotton Speculation
against Gen. German.

Our Geographic dispatches for the past
week have contained repeated references
to the alleged cotton speculations of Gen.
GoRMAN, who is in command at Helena,
Arkansas. Of course, at this distance, it
is impossible to know anything of the facts
of these accusations. If true, they will
result in his disgraceful dismissal from the
service; while even it false, they will
work him serious, though but tempo
rary, injury.
Here, in the community where he has
lived for many years, and among the
friends who cherish an interest in his rep
utation, it seems only just that an appar-
ent fact should be presented and consid-
cred The history of the war has shown
that camp reports are of all others the
least reliable, as rule. Many bad, in
competent officer, has been made hero
of, and many good, painstaking COM
mander has suffered the suspicion of I'M
fitness, if not of disloyalty, by the repre-
sensations of reckless correspondents. 1t
would be well to consider, also, that, while
such favoritism and criminality as General
GERMAN is charged with, would call forth
the class of criticisms which have been
written against him; like result might
follow his refusal to allow privileges to
spectators, who would, in revenge, make
him the mark of their malice, for the pur-
pose of supplying his place with a more
convenient commander.
Is it not manly to consider the posi-.
bilities of the case, which bear in Genera
GoRMAN's favor, instead of jumping te
conclusions against one of our own citizens
who has won promotion ON the field, ane
who, whatever his course in his present
position, has elsewhere, in his own person
and at the head of our first regiment Of
fered to the country, helped to enlarge thu
military reputation of our State?

StantOn,s Prescription.

The Washington correspondent of the
St. Louis Democrat, speaking of the re-
moval of Gen. FRANKLIN from the COM
mand of one of the corps of the Army of
the Potomac, says:
Probably the worst thing that can be proved
against him is that the Government had such
reas on to believe him an INSCRIPTIONS devotee
of Mcclellan, after the Fitz John Porter FASH
ion, as to deem it safest to relieve him peremp-
torily from command.
This, of course, is perfectly satisfactory.
FRANKLIN had not done anything to de-
serve the disgrace attempted to be put up
on him. He was no coward. He was no
rebel sympathizer. But he was worse.
He was friend of General MCCLELLAN.
If all the officers and all the people who
admire MCCLELLAN could be disgraced,
would not General HALLECK and Secretary
STANTON do smashing business

The Radicals.

This party name, when, Ut lIllS tlfhe
and in this country, designates the extreme
abolitionists, is well chosen.
The radicals strike low and deep into
our social system. In their theory, reform
is violence, and destruction is it's CHIEF
agency. Their logic is exclusively emo
tional and sentimental They repudiate all
the laws OF nature, as expounded and es-
tablished by experience, and substitute in
lieu thereof the eloquence of poetry, pas
sion, and transcendental philosophy, which
have bewildered and demented the seedy
intellectually Of New England. They
have learned to weep with dramatic action
over ills, wrongs, and wickedness afar off,
while they are unmoved by wickedness,
and wrongs, and follies at home.
1t is their theory to destroy first, and
reform afterwards; for they are too blind
to see that, in the material and moral
world, the process of destruction and rem
ovation cooperate silently, but inces-
sanity, producing all possible changes; and
that all real reformation is of slow growth,
and is never brought about by violence
They have failed to learn from experience
or history, that all attempted violent
changes in the political or social world, are
destructive to the agencies employed to
produce them.
Their principles are all tragic and dra-
matic-moral and political romance
adapted to passionate speaking and senti-
mental writing. They are the crazed
DANToNs, MARATs, and RoBEspIERREs of
the country, whom popular madness has
thrown upon the surface of affairs; and
who, like their prototypes, are so sincere
in their phrenzy, that even martyrdom
would be hailed by many of them, asin the
case of old JOHN BROWN, as a glorious
translation from earth to heaven. Like
their predecessors of the French Revolu-
ton, they conceive it to be easy to de-
stroy whatever they evil or wrong in
the body polite; and they hold that
all men are traitors and apostates who
are not as mad as themselves. Like
the radicals of the French RevOlu-
ton, they regard all conservatives as the
worst enemies of the nation and of man
kind. They would, with clear conscience,
consign all such to the Bastile and the
guillotine. And when they had thus dis
posed of the conservatives who hold them
in check, and under whose restraint they
have become furious, they would expel all
who sympathise with conservatism from
the councils, administration, and armies
of the Republic.
Providence has appointed these radi-
Gals to enact this terrible tragedy. So far
as is possible, let them alone. 1t is of
little avail to hiss the actors, creating
confusion, and delaying the progress of
the play, for they have possession of the
stage. When the chief actors shall be
dead on the boards, like the great per-
formers in the Reign of Terror of the
French Revolution, the curtain will fall;
the people will recover from their delu-
sion; and reason and common sense will
again resume their Just dominion over the
public mind.
