The Government and the Press.

The Washington Star, commenting upon The
prosecution of its editor by the government
for the publication of contraband army news.
makes the point that the letter of the Philadel-
phia Inquirer which contained the intelligence
was copied INTO the New York evening and
morning papers of June Il and Is The Star
might have added, with perfect justice, that
the prohibition from Gen. Hooker's headquar-
tiers against the publication OF news from the
Army OF the Potomac was not issued until the
18th zone day after the issue OF the objection
able letter IN Philadelphia and New York;,
and this order was not received here until the
afternoon of that day. Inasmuch, therefore,
as the rules established by Gen. Hooker were
unknown to the editors "throughout the conn
ry'' until the 18th, it was clearly no breach OF
confidence to publish news for which our peo-
pie were anxIously waiting on the 18th.
Moreover, the story from the correspondent
of the Inquirer gave no idea Of the future
movements Of Hooker's army. II reported
only the concentration of different corps from
Falmouth at Centreville, adding that "Gen.
Hooker and the retnue attached TO general
headquarters are on their way 10 this point,
and by Tomorrow noon or night the army will
be together again. Hence the situation of
headquarters was not stated-fer headquarters
exist where the commanding general happens
TO be At the moment, and if Gen. Hooker had
not yet arrived at Centreville, headq uartsrs
had certainly not been established there. Since
the appearance of General Hooker's order no
loyal paper, as far as we are aware, has pub
Hshed any forbidden news.
The offence OF the Star, which has subjected
It's editor to Indictment was accordingly no
offence at all, in The light OF law OF common
sense. The prosecution OF newspapers, in any
event, is an unwise proceeding, and the peo-
pie, who are compelled to depend upon the
industry of the reporters to learn tidings which
the government and its censor refuse TO fur
nish, bestow little sympathy upon such ei-
forts.--N. I. Eceaiag Post.

RERKL GAME BLOCKED AT EICKsBURG -
On Monday last three Federal prisoners es-
capped from Vicksburg. They reported that
Pemberton was constructing small boats, sew
eral hundred OF which Were finished. One of
the escaped prisoners heard an officer say that
oars for GOO boats would be ready by Sunday
night As if to more tuliy confirm what APP
peared TO be already certainty, large bodies OF
Kirby Sfniths Rebel cavalry were seen hover
ing about across the river, in front of Vicks-
burg. 1t appeared then, that Pemberton was
intending to escape across the river in small
boats, where he would pc joined and projected
by the Rebel cavalry. Gen. Grant instantly
blocked the game. He ordered Mowers brig
ade, supported by Taylor's Chicago battery
and the the 10th Illinois cavalry, to move from
Young's Point and occupy the neck Of land in
front of the doomed city. This movement was
executed on Tuesday morning. AT the same
time the gunboats. above and below were or
dered TO close in nearer and remain there, so
that escape by that method became IN inapossl-
bility.-FTom the Chicago JossTRGl, p
