The President in the Vallan-
I1- digham Case.

y
If President Lincoln has mortal enc
my, that enemy could not wish to bring
him into greater public contempt than he
has brought hinselfin his correspondence
with the committee of the Ohio Democrat
ic State Convention, appointed to demand
from him the release Of Mr.. Vallandig-
ham. We publish the correspondence at
length in tins paper, but we do SO without
pleasure, though the head Of detested
political party is discomftted by it, The
head of this detested political party is also
at the head of the nation, and the n.tion
is shamed by his conduct Not tyro Of
the constitution and of the principles of
civil liberty will fail to detect his wiIlful
perversion of both without reading the
exposures Of the committee in that behalf
in their rejoinder to his letter, nor will
any tyro fail to despise the thin pettifog
ging and the falsehoods in fact by which
he seeks to sustain himself The rcjon-
der of the committee is as conclusive in
its revision of his pcrversions as their
original communication Is singularly clear
and correct in its statement Of the case,
and this is all the comment that need be
made on the Presidential performance.
The President avows his determination
to adhere to the policy by which Mr..
Vallandigham has suffered. He will har-
dly do that, unless he is wholly blind to
the indications of the public temper, and
we trust he is not thus blind. The avow-
al was possibly deemed an easy way of
letting himself down from a position which
the Albany committee had before made
uncomfortable. At any rate, We predict
that there will be no attempted repetitions
of the Valiandigham casc.-Chicago

Great Democratic Gathering in Mil
waHkee

The copperhead democracy of Wisconsin,
went to Milwaukee, to hold mass meeting
on Thursday last The Milwaukee NeaoS, es-
timated the gathering at $4,000. Probably
one fifth of that number would be nearer the
truth. The Sentinel in commenting on the
Nee1s' estimate of numbers, and the appear
ance Of the crowd, speaks as follows:
There were more drunken Ioafers lying
around on the door steps, dry goods boxes and
in the street cutters, than we have seen in
many {. day before. If the Police had arrest
ed all drunken men they saw they would have
had highly respectable delegation Of the cop
perhead convention under their charge AS
it was they had several distinguished men of
their party in keeping The number was
about as near 20 900 as the attendance at the
convention, which the NeaOs claims.

Special Dispatch to the Chicago Evening Journal.
REAR VIoKsBURG, June 25--3. p. m.
Last night Gen. Mcpherson fired a mine
under large fort in front of Logan. The
front parapet and an angle were completely
destroyed. The rebels were unable to work
its guns, i'll consequence Of our sharpshooters
having piled up the embrasures, and renlov-
ed the guns. The destruction of the parapet
revealed three inner lines of stockades built Of
large logs.
The rebel loss at the general bombardment
of the 21st was over 500 killed. The rebels
were in line, expecting an assault, and our
artillery literally moved them.
ONE DAY LATER
Yesterday was great field day for the
Union army. Under orders from General
Grant, the whole line was moved into posi-
ton for an assault. The troops of the first
line, through covered approaches and trench
es, moved into their assigned places soon af-
ter three O'Clock At four p. m, a siege gun
near Logans tent gave the signal, and as the
shell struck, the mine under the parapet OF
the large fort in McPhersons front, exploded
throwing the center of the work high in the
air, and opening large fssure at the instant
OF explosion. Every gun in our lines opened
a tremendous fire.
An assaulting column of four regiments
from Logans and two from Quimby's divis-
ions charged by the flank through and into
the fort, and it was ours. The rebels retreat
ed to the rifle pits in the rear.
A sharp musket fire followed, during which
our working parties threw up an earthwork.
Hand grenades and 30-pound shell were
used with terrible effect on the rebels in the
pits. In the meantime the rebels massed a
heavy force to charge and drive our men out.
As they moved to the charge the Naval
Battery of the Tuscunbia, and other batter
les opened, sweeping them down by hundreds.
The rebel column was repulsed.
The regiments in the assault were the goth,
45th and 3lst Illinois, 18th Iowa, and two
others, that l did not learn-all under COM
mand Of Col. Leggett; Lieut.. Col. Melanc-
thon Smith was mortally wounded: Major
Fisk, killed, of the 45th Illinois. Our loss
about 100 killed and wounded most of the
wounds slight. Col. Leggett is slightly
wounded.
The rebel loss is estimated at 1000 killed
and wounded.
3 p: m.-Our possession Of the fort was dis
puted all night. We still hold it, and are so
entrenched that it cannot be taken. 1t has
been'a severe struggle, but.when it is consid-
cred that we are occupying the crest of the
hill, attacked in front and flank by an enemy
which have rifle pits and the outside of the
parapets for defences, and that our men have
held their position and thrown up works un.
! der a continual and concentrated fire, it vii
be understood as one ofthe most gallant &C
| tions of the war in the West.
