OF Union men or true Democrats-nothing but
rank copperhcads To us it is remarkable that

more the igdex of our manifest destiny" as
to set forth these sentiments, to carry our which
would reverse the wheels of progress and turn
the car In backward track to the ages of bar
harism. We can solve the cause of his position
on no other ground than that his fine mind may
have been turned by SO long inhaling the atmos-
phere eircumscribing his Southern associates,
that the maleria has entered his system and
poisoned his nature
In all ages those who have been the enemies
Of their government in its ho.r of peril have
sunk to oblivion, or, what is still worse, gone
to posterity on the roll of infamy. The latter
will be the case with Mr.. Bayard if he does
not speedily repent and confess his sins to the
world, and particularly to his constituency, it.,
indeed, he calls any but sympathizers his con-

to roost, and the day is not far distant when
this book of blue, filled with curses Of the Ad-

day that he ever had the termerity to make
these speeches, much less to have them so or

their influence and their persons to work the
disintegration and destruction of the Republic.

The battle of Chanccllors-
vile has been fought and won, but not by us
Why we rctreated we cannot tell we had the
best of the rebels so far as we know, up to the
crossing ofthe river previous to our retrogradc
movement
On Monday morning, April 9th, we moved
at daylight--when | say zoe mean the tn
and 18th Corps, followed by the 5th, under
Maj. Gen. Meade. Our march was up the
river to Kelly's ford, some 25 miles, which We
reached about night ON Tuesday. The whole
OF our corpscrossed the same night. The ns xt
morning we took up the line of march for Ger
mania ford, ON the Rqppidan., which we reach
ed the same afternoon, capturing some 20 or 20
rebels, s,who were at work building bridge there
and notexpecting US. We Webivouaced in tho woods
for, as we supposed, the night but about / /
Q. clock we were again in motion, and crossed
the river at midnight, with very rapid cur
rent up TO our horses middle Our corps and
the 18th, under General Slocum, got safely
over without the loss Of man, and took mp
our abode for the nigh. on the south side of
the said river.
We did not move until late in the morning,
when down the plank road our army moved in
the direction OF Fredericksburg, until we came
70 the junction of the Orange Court-House and
fredericksburg roads, near Chancellorvile,
where we halted and made ourselves as comfor-
table a. the circumstances would admit. There
we rested, with occasional skirmishinc and can
nonading until Saturday afternoon when the
enemy, by secret and skiIlful movement,
lnsssed then troops op our right flank, and

NOT DEspArRINa OF THE REPUBLIC.

The longer the war continues, the stronger
evidence we see exhibited of faith in the sup
preston of the rebellion, despite the efforts Of
the secession sympathizers to make it appear
that the reverse of Hooker was about fatal to
the cause. The North has the ability to sus-
tain the war for an indefinite period, and is de-
termined to do it. The following from the
National Lateligencer shows the abiding faith
of the people under the most adverse circum-
stances:
