This embraces very nearly half the Federal
Territory east of California and Oregon, and
more than tbree-eighths of our population, Pa
cifc States included.
1t is unnecessary to rehearse the measures
taken, the battles fought, and the victories
won to rccouquer this vast domain. Suffice 1t
to say that Missouri is firmly in the Union,
with prospect of getting rid Of Slavery; the
Territories are free from any considerable
Rebel force; the Indians have mostly returned
to the old Government Arkansas is Icing
rapidly cleared of the few Confederate troops
under Hndman; Western Texas is and always
has been loyal; the brave little lrmy under
Banks has given US back the State of Louis
lana; Grants glorious success at Vicksbufs.

THE CONFEDERACY As 1T WAS
AND AZ TT IL.

We give on another page a map Of the
United States, designed to show the present
boundaries Of the so-called Confederate States
as compared with the lines claimed and
actually held by them about two years
ago. The white portions of the map are the
Free States and Delaware; the lght-shaded
portions are the States aud Territories claimed
by jeff. Davis, and over which for q consider.
able period his Rebel arms were triumphant;
the black portion appropriately describes his
rapidly decreasing territory not yet repossessed
by the Union forces.
1t will BIO seen that more than twO.thirds Of
the rich domain Of Treason has been recOv-
cred. Soon after the war began in earnest,
the Union lines were at Alexandria and Ar
lington flights, the Rebels having control over
all the rest of Virginia except Fortress Mon
roc. Along the entire seaboard, there were
but two Union flags on shOre-at Key West
and Fort Pickens. The Mississippi was closed
from its mouth almost to the Ohio; Tennessee
and Missouri had been forciby dragged into
the Confederacy by Governors Harris and
Price; Texas had been basey betrayed into
their hands by the infamous Twggs; the In.
dams had been coaxed OK coerced into allies

We have divided the Territory aud popula-
ton AS fairly az possible, giving literally To
the Rebel side. For instance, East Tennessee,
which springs back to the Union the instant
the Rebel power is broken; and North Caro-
lima. where the dissatisfaction with jeff Davis
needs only Assurance Of protection to take tho
State ont OF biz hands at once. The limo in
Mississippi is at present variable, but the
chances are that Bragg and Johnston will
make no stand west Of Alabama. In Arkansas
but little remains to be done; and Texas, We
all know, is only waiting the sound Of Union
bugles to reassert herself.
Thus the Rebellion looks on land-shorn of
two-thirds Of its claimed territory, and five
tweliths Of its population reduced from

NEWS FROM EUROPE.

BY the arrival Of the Hibernian. from Liverpool
July 30, Queenstown July 81, aud the China, from
Liverpool Aug. /, and Queenstown Aug. 2, we have
four days later news from Europe. The Hecla, from
Liverpool July %, arrived at this port yesterday,
bringing two days later flee.
The English papers generally. even those which
have always advocated the cause Of the Rebels take
gloomy view Of tie hilitary prospects of the Con.
federstss. Most of them, however, still hope that
the Union cannot be restored. The Confederate
loan was heavy, at IL to Is discount.
Mr.. Laird Of Birkenhesd bas published the dOou-
nents on which he founded his statement that the
Federal Government had approached him with II
view to getting vessels built by him. They are
letters from Washington agent, whose name MIR.
Laird refuses to publish.
The war panic, arising from the Polish question,
has considerably subSided. The answers Of the
Western Powers to Russia shortly expected, but
nothing in regard to them has yet transpired.

in all-more than any but two or three Others
in our country. He could not be persuaded
and would not be driven into Rebellion, but
in the face of rampant, furious treason, mildly
and calmly maintained his chosen attitude OF
fidelity to the Union.
We heard, some weeks ago, that the Rebel
chiefs had incarcerated him as traitor TO
their 'Confederacy;' but this seemed so incred-
iblo that we would not repeat it. Recent adj
vices however, seem to leave no room for
doubt on the subject. Unionists fresh from Rich
mond assert that they saw and conversed with
Mr. Aiken while confined in the loathsome Libby
prison-that he was their fellow prisoner there
suffering like them for his invincible love OF tho
Union, and looking to the downfall OF the Re-
bellion to restore him to his family and friends.
We were told by Horatio Seymour early
in 1861 that the South would be unit against
"coercion;" we were freshly assured by him
last January that President Lincoln's Emanci-
patton policy had extnguished Unionism in the
South. Yet here is the most extensive slave
holder we ever met to-day pining ia Jeii.

nounce bis allegiance to the Union He dare

Southern People have liberty to express their
true sentiments, and they will attest that the
Rebellion was forced upon them at the mouth
of the pistol and point of tho bowie-knifs by
n violent desperate, bullying faction and that
n majority of them were always at heart loyal
TO the Union.

We have actually been reproved by one or
two chicken.hearted Unionists for filling our
columns so frequently and extensively with
Rebel manifestoes and leading articles from their
papers! We very seldom comment on these
exhibitions Of traitorous malignity and men
dac,ty, for they seem too transparent to need
exposure. II anything on earth is calculated
to make Secession and its advocates hateful in
the eyes OF all candid, upright men, these
maniiestoes, printed without note or comment,
ought to do il. If, then. We ever traverse
their assertions and expose their calumnies, it
is purely because we wish TO impress their
utterance aud their nature more deeply upon
the minds of our readers.

SECRETARY WELLEs AND Mn.
LAIRD.

Among our items OF European news, we pub.
lish this morning some important documents
relating to the letter of Secretary Welles on tho
assertion Of Mr. Laird, the we'll known builder
of Rebel vessels in Brkenhead. Mr.. Laird, in
the House Of Commons in March last, stated
that he had been applied to by order of the
Navy Department in Washington, TO build war
vessels for the Federal Government. The cor.
rectness Of this statement was emphatically dc.
MED by Secretary Wellss, in letter originally
addressed to the Hon. Charles Sumner, recent
ly published by Mr.. Golden in the English
papers, and reproduced few days ago in our
columns. Mr.. Welles says:
II, no. true that any application to build vessel FOR this
Government 10 that gentleman scty or In

Government to make application TO Mr. Lard or the nrm q
which he member othsr person or rtn eorosd,
TO build v.se vessels for the Government Of the United
States or for tho navy Of,hs United STATED.
In reply TO this very explicit denial, Mr.. Laird
declares that be believed bis statements to DO
true, and in order 10 enable the public to
Judge whether he had sufficient grounds for en-.
tertaining this belief he publishes copies Of
letters from friend in Washington. These
letters were well calculated TO make Mr..
Laird believe in the correctness of what he
states, provided always that he was quite sure
that his Washington friend and correspondent
was Trustworthy. This correspondent sends
him a memorandum " handed him the evening
before from the department with the request to
send it to Mr.. Laird by the next mail" His
friend further claims to have assured the
4" Ministers of the Navy" that il such yes.
sci could be built, Mr.. Laird could do it, and
be assured Mr.. Laird that Mr.. Welles had
great confidence in his Judgment In another
letter, dated New.York, Oct -, lo6l, this
friend informs Mr.. Laird that he sent his
Uaird's) last letter to the Secretary of the
Navy, who was very DESTROYS to have him
(Mr. Laird) build the iron.plated and bomb.
proof batteries, and he expresses the hope that
Mr.. Weles may yet decide to have Mr.. Laird
build one or more of the gunboats.
Mr.. Laird, in publishing these documents.
must have been aware that oil their weight
depended on the character and the trust
worthinsss Of his correspondent. lie must
know little Of public opinion if he thinks that
anonymous letters are able to impugn tho
veracity of the explicit statement made BY
Secretary Welles No unbiased man would
admit this anonymous testimony as evidence.
If Mr. Laird meant to prove anything, he
should have published the name of his corrs.
spondcnt. AS tho case stands, he only shows
himself to have been the dupe of some advsu.
turer, whose name even he is ashamed to
divulge. That he should have been so made
fool Of nobody will wonder, when it 10 con.
sidered on what poor proof he relies to make
fools of other people.
