Federal Mounted Infantry Raid.

PHILADELPHIA, May, 81.
The Bulletin has the following special dis
patch:
MWfreesboro', 26M.-Col. Wilder, with his
mounted infantry returned this afternoon from
a trip in the direction of McMnnville, whittier
he had gone in search of the rebel cavalry
under Col. Breckenridge. The enemys pickets
were encountered short distance beyond
Woodbury.. The firing attracted the rebels in
the vicinity, who collected considerable force
to annoy and impede our advance, and Skin
mishing was kept up for several miles. Twelve
miles this side of McMnnville our forces came
upon the camp of Brecknridge's forces, who
hastily decamped, but Wilder succeeded in
capturing nine prisoners, fifteen horses and
thirty head of beef cattle. Having secured
the prisoners and burned the tents and bag
gage left by the rebels, our forces pushed
rapidly forward, skirmishing with and driving
the enemy until within seven miles of Nc
Minnville, when the pursuit was abandoned,
and our forces returned to Murfreesboro',
securing the country on both TANKS, and cap
turing number of soldiers who were at home
on furloughs. Among the papers captured
was general order issued by Bragg on the
18th inst, directing that all sick and disabled
soldiers, wagons and baggage calculated to re-
tard the march be removed to the rear. Pris-
oners also say that all the cavalry under
Wheeler aud Morgan are ordered to report at
Columbia within five days, that the forces at
Liberty, under Harrison, comprising five reg
iments, were preparing TO move, and that
Morgan is falling back to Sparta to join Gen.
Wharton's forces, which are also preparing to
move. The opinion is that Bragg will evac-
uate.
The railroad between Tuahoma and Nc
Minnvile is repaired, with the exception of
the bridge, and trains are again running on
the road.

COMING STRUGGLE AT CHARLESTON.
The struggle, when it comes. will certainly be
of q fearful character. Ii will be the shock of
tremendous forces, the relative powers of which.
are yet untried. The long mooted question Of
the fighting value of ships against batteries will
be brought to a test more conclusive than any to
which human warfare has vet subjected it. In
other words, the Monitor rOn-clads, which the
Yankees claim to be the most impenetrable YES
sells ever constructed, will necessarily come within
point blank range of the most numerous and
powerful batteries that have ever yet been used
in a single engagement. We have good reison,
too, to believe that our guns will be managed
with admirable tact and precision. The more
important batteries are manned by South Caro-
lima regulars, for whom the credit is claimed, and
/ think justly, of being the most expert and prac-
teal heavy artillerists in the Confederate army.
The forts are we'll differed, and General Ripley,
who has made the study of heavy ordnance a
speciality for years, and whose excellence in that
particular branch of military knowledge is an
admitted fact, will himself take command of
Fort Sumter as soon as the enemy makes his
appearance.
Ii is scarcely possible that any floating thing
can breast unharmed the concentrated storm of
heavy metal from the guns of Sumter, Moultrie
and Battery Bee, the three principal works com
manding the throat of the harbor. Nor can the
peril of running this terrible gauntlet be dimin-
ished by an attempt to pass under cover OF dark
ness, as has been the case at Vicksburg and New
Orleans. So tortuous and intricate is the chan
mel leading to the forts that the most experienced
pilots of the harbor would not venture rs bring
in a vessel by night under the conditions which
the enemy cannot escape, viz, without light or
landmark to guide the way. Even when the
blockade running vessels leave the harbor. it is
always necessary to aid their exit by previously
arranged lights (~shaded) and signals; so that iii
reasonably certain that the attacking iron clads
must either enter in open day, or incur the immi-
nent hazard of getting aground apon one OF the
most treacherous bars on the Southern coast.
which seldom yields a vessels when once il has
grasped the keel. But. If perchance, despite of
may channel. multiplied t0rpedoes, and the COM
bined batteries of the forts, some of the nine
Monitors should chance to get into port. they
would still have to encounter a concentrated fire
of batteries, which, as the Yankee papers have
learned from coRtrabands, 'line the shores of the
interior of the harbor." Aud then will come the
''tug of war; which will determine the possession
of the honored old city.

The Constitution says that the military shall
be kept in strict subordination to the civil power
But this provision Of the organic law seems no
longer to be respected in a neighboriug State. A
short time ago a Judge was arrested in the
discharge of his judicial duties and for a judicial
opinion, by military force, aud has since been
held in custody as a military prisoner. We copy
to day, from the Springfield Register. an account
OF a prisoner having been taken from the civil
authorities, by a military force. in that city. II
the civil law is thus TO be superseded with the
sanction of the Federal Administration, we can
only saw, with the Register, that these military
acts point to the people of Illinois. and of every
State, to the fact that the sovereignty of theiI
State. the s~anctity Of their Constitution and laws
and their individual rights guaranteed thereby
are among the things that were.

Democratic Mass state Convention.
Alta meeting of the Democratic State Central
Committee Yesterday. after full conference with
prominent Democrats from all parts of the State.
Il was resolved that the conservative citizens Of
Indiana be requested to assemble in uass con-
vention in this city, on Wednesday, the Goth of
Nav. to take into consideration the perIlous con-
dition Of our public affairs. the dangers which be-
set constitutional liberty, and to unite in a com
mon effort to maintain the Constitution and to
restore National unity. Eminent speakers and
statesmen from sister States will be present upon
the occasion TO discuss the issues before the
country. The call of the convention aud the ar
engagements in reference thereto will be an
nounced in a few days. From the anxiety gen
orally manifested to secure this expression of
public sentiment. we have no doubt the proposed
convention will be the most imposing in numbers
and character that has ever assembled in the
Northwest.

The Democratic party have full faith that the
Administration could, it they would. restore the
Union. They understand exactly what immense
resources the people have put into the hands of
their rulers. and they DO not see how it has been
possible TO fail, il the best use has been made of
them. They, therefore. bold the Administration
responsible Tor the protraciion of the war, be-
cause they believe wise policy and vigorous ac-
ton ought to have welded the military strength
of the country more efficiently and successfully.
This u why they declare they have no confidence
in Abraham Lincoln. IL they loved their c0un-
try less. they would be more patient under the
mismanagement. which, IL il has not destroyed
Us. has at least prolonged the Struggle and sub

centuries They know that the war can be
brought to an honorable close speedily with
the forces already provided. but they have
been deceived SO often, that they cannot say
they 6eiieUe il will be brought to such a close.
They are suspicious, and have a right TO be
suspicious. Indeed. the only wonder is that any
part of the people r-tain the slightest confidence
in the Administration What they now desire is
victory. They are weary Of promises. They
demand deeds. If the Administration expect to
conduct the struggle by assaults upon. Northern
Democrats, by instituting political organizations,
and by squandering the time and money which
ought to be used against the Rebels, in election
eering campaigns in the loyal States. they will
continue 10 fail against the rebellion. A decisive
victory-a CLEAN of true vigor in the conduct of
the war, would be worth everything TO the Union
cause to-day. Why do not the Administration

drop party hong enough to pay some attention to
the war? II they viii do that, they will restore
confidence. The Union sentiment Of the country
will be cheered. The great Democratic heart
will rejoice, as il ever does rejoice, when the
prospects Of the country are bright. and the hope
of victory is based np0n reasonable grounds. but
