For the Press.
The Explanatory Bill.

Iregret, Mr.. Editor, that the Maine Senate
has seen lit to postpone indefinitely the pro-
posed explanatory clause to the Liquor Law.
1t strikes me that this course evinces lack
both OF craftsmanship and humanity, If it is
not breach OF trust.
1t was recently well said in the Hall of the
House of Representatives, by the Cumberland
member Of the Executive Council, that no leg
islation could compare in Importance with
this and the sentiment finds a response in the
breast of every well-wisher of his kind.
fear that unless that vote is reconsidered,
there will be a sharp triangular political con-
fict in this State prior to the fall election. If
so, the responsibility OF results will surely rest
upon those who tender the issue.
They who would ignore Prohibition on the
plea that the cause of Emancipation might
thereby suffer, should remember-or, ii they
do not now know, should be told-that many
earnest PIohibitionists i'm this State are max
ing large personal sacrifices of time, means
aud reputation, behalf of the oppressed,
while some of these new converts to Emanci-
patton were led by their apron strings. Ad-
vice from that quarter, therefore. on the ques-
ton Of Human Rights, is not in very good
taste.
The Democratic party Of yore was certain
ly entitled to credit for one thing. When
they made an issue they lived up to it. They
put forward their most earnest and able men
to advocate it. They were never ashamed of
it. Still less did they apologize for it, This,
in part, was the secret of their success.
Not so with the Republicans. With princi-
piles that secure the conscientious support of
the wise and good, leading politicians are con-
stantly seeking to evade the only issues which
brought good men TO the support Of the par
ty. The rank and file, therefore, become in
different If not disguised, and defeat Is the
consequence.
Prohibition and Emancipation are basis of
political action which meets the approval OF
God and of all good men mot misled.) By
this sign we conquer. But If we hesitate, and
fear 10 join the issues, we come under the
condemnation-"I would thou vert cold or
hot So then, because thou art lukewarm,
and neither cold nor hot, will spue thee out
of my mouth'-and fiually fail.
As men of practical common sense, then,
having some idea Of the value of moral forces,
let us heartily adopt these issues, and go man
fully forward to glorious and permanent tri-
umph.

HeIptpe Ones Country,

A paper in this city which lays high claims
to loyalty, and would feel itself iibeied should
its loyalty be doubted, says:
1t is understood that the leading New York
ship builders decline taking contracts for the
5000 ton iron-clads wanted by the government,
for the reason that they fear loss from the steady
depreciation of the currency.
In Offset TO such thrustat the credit of the
government, we give the following, cut from
another morning contemporary:
An English house doing an extensive business
in this country. has just given evidence Of its
confidence in the character of our government
securities Instead Of renting AT the current
rate of exchange, the New York representative
has been instructed TO invest about 900 in
United States six per cents.
1t is also said that Mr.. Chase has received
large offers OF foreign gold in exchange for
government bonds,-a fact indicative of the
confidence which foreigners have in the sta
biity of our institutions. The Washington
fer comes from an agent of bankers Of Amster-
dam. He offers loan OF fifty millions OF gold,
to be deposited at Amsterdam, and subject
to the draft ofthe treasury. We have no dispo-
sition 10 intimate that those who would i'm
pair the public credit are necessarily disloyal,
but they have queer way of exhibiting their
love of country. The government, like an in
diyidual, depends largely for success upon its
ability to maintaia its credit. An honorable
man, with small means but with good business
qualities, may feel almost assured of success
when everybody speaks well of him and proph-
ecies success. Such an expression will give a
credit that will become the sure passport to
success with man who knows how TO use
such an advantage.
On the contrary, the best business man, ev-
en- If possessed Of q large share Of material
wealth, may often be ruined by general dis
position to discredt him, and to represent him
in sinking and insolvent condition. So,
too, of the government; much may be done to
embarrass it by crying down its securities; or
to relieve it, by speaking well of its credit.
We deny no mans loyalty simply because he
speaks disparagingly of the credit and faith
of the government. but such disparaging re-
marks are far less an indication of patriotic
love of country.

Death of Gen, Edwin v. sumner.

The death of Gen. Sumner, at Syracuse, n.
T., OF congestion of the lungs, has been given
in our Geographic reports. Gen. Sumner was
yate In 1919, being, says the Journal, probably
the ouly Major General who has thus rose
through all the grades OF military service:
He served through the Mexican war with
distinction, in SCOTS line, receiving promotion
and two breyets Tor his brilliant Conduct. Pre-
vious TO that campaign he had continually
been on frontier service, to the complete salts
faction OF the government He was a noted
peacemaker among the Indians. From 1851
TO '53 he was Military Governor of New Mex
leo, and displayed extraordinary executive
qualities. In 1855 and SO he commanded i'm
Kansas, and incurred the displeasure of jeff
Davis. then Secretary of War, for refusing To
become tool in the hands of the slavery pro-
pagandsts. When the rebellion broke out. he
was sent to replace Albert S. Johnston in Cal
ifornia, but he soon preferred to come East
and join in the war.
known and appreciated by the loyal country
to require repetition. On the peninsula, it
may almost be said that he TWICE saved our
ariny-once when he crossed the famous grape
vine bridge without waiting for orders, and
hurried to the hard-pressed front at Fair Oaks
and secondlyat Malvern Hill, where he turned
the pursuing tide of the rebels with terrible
slaughter. He was made commander of the
Right Grand Division OF the Army of the Po-
tomac under Gen. Burnside, and did all that
could be done by the most determined valor at
the battle oil Fredericksburg. He was soon
after appointed to the command of the West
ern Department, having its headquarters at
St. Louis, and was about to repair thither
when he died. But he passed away 10 the full
which will live through all time In the grateful
records of his country.

Letter from Florida.
GOOD CONDUCT OF THE SECOND 5. c. BLACK
REGIMENT.

REGIMENT.
Jacksonville, Fla, March IAN.
To the Editor OF the Press To-day the
rebels have made no effort TO dislodge us from
the town. A force of cavalry ATTACKED orr
picket last night and were repulsed. At about
O'Clock this morning a body of 260 cavalry
attacked Co. A of the I'd regiment, stationed
west of the city, about forty or fifty rods iiom
the railroad. The cavalry described half
circle and poured in a volley on the front,
completed the circle, and gave them another.
Capt Holt returned the volley with effect,
and retreated without the loss OF a man. Sew
eral of the rebels were seen to fall. Their sur
geon was shot dead-through the forehead
Surgeon Rogers, OF the LIST, has secured part
of his instruments. Co.'S. A and b retired
short distance and formed in line, Co. b in re-
serve, and awaited the enemy. In half an
hour a force OF infantry appeared on the front
of Co. A. Capt. Holt installing them for our
own men (as they were not in full uniformly,
withheld fire until the enemy filed into the
woods and poured into him murderous fire,
creating Sigh. panic among the men. They
returned the volley, however, with telling ei
feet, and retired. Col Montgomery was near,
rallied them very quickly, and as they adj
vanced the enemy retreated. Capt Holt lost
one man killed and two wounded by this vol
ley, all the loss we have thus far met. As the
enemy filed away and fired, Col. Montgomery
was brought in direct range OF the fire, and 1t
is very remarkable that he was not killed. He
remarked that it was the hottest fire he was
ever under. Those who are acquainted with
his Kansas history will have some idea of the
effect of that fire, the hottest he ever knew,
upon the two companies of the I'd regiment,
who have been in the service scarcely two
weeks, and were never before under fire, num-
berng scarcely one hundred men in all.

The Rebels Falling Back upon Richmond
Their Army Seriously Weakened.

The Rebels Falling Back upon Richmond
Their Army Seriously Weakened.
New YORK, March %.
Special dispatches from Washington state
that the Government has information leading
1t to share the opinion entertained in WASH
ington circles of sympathizers>with the insur-
rection, that the rebel army on the Rappahan-
mock IS making preparations to fall back to-
ward Richmond.-probably as far as the lines
of Notifications constituting the defences of
that city.
The apprehension of the JEFF. Davis govern
ment Is that an attack is intended by way of
james River, and this backward movement Is
considered necessary TO thwart it. Refugees
from Richmond confirm this theory, and add
that Lees force has been much reduced by the
withdrawal of Longstreet, the two Hills, and
other rebel Generals with their commands,
who have gone to other parts Of the Confed-
eracy.
Before taking measures to put the conscrip-
ton law into operation, the Government is
determined to bring back to the National ar
mics all the deserters who do not flee the
country.
1t is reported that the number of these men
has been ascertained, from the army rolls, to
be not less than 10000, and instructions have
been given to the proper officers to take the
necessary steps, under the recent proclamation
by the President, to return as many as can be
found to the ranks.
A correspondent of the New York Herald,
named Dennis, was sentenced to six months
hard labor, by the Quartermaster's Depart
ment, for divulging the plans of army move
ments, but Gen. Hooker changed the sentence
TO perpetual exile outside of the army lines.
