FREE SPEECH.-The Copperheads are
now in favor of the largest liberty ofspeech
FOR themselves-that treason and rebel
lion, and resistance to the laws and other
equally praiseworthy and patriotic objects
may be duly encouraged. This class of
men are the identical patriots who so earn
estly strove to cram Constitution down
the throats of the people of Kansas, kindly
got up for them by the "Rorder Ruffians"
of Missouri. The people of Kansas didn't
like the dose,--in fact it was too nausea
ting for them to swallow. But these con-
siderate Copperhead doctors insisted upon
their taking it anyhow. Has anybody
hereabouts forgotten how Hall preached
"aequiescence" in those days. The follow
ing from that Constitution is an index to
the "free speech" they were then in favor
of and in which all people were earnestly
exhorted to "acquiesce." Why don't they
"acquiesce" now?

rs Some of the Surgeons at and about
Vicksburg are having sort of rumpus
with..the Medical Director at that point,
who signs his name Mad. Mills, about
ice for the use of the sick and wounded
in the hospitals. This Mad. Mills, Medi-
cal Director, has had his dignity offend
ed by some one, and in yindication there
of, he visits his wrath upon the sick and
dying, by refusing to fill acquisitions for
ice and medicines called for by some of
the surgeons, even after all the red-tape
formula has been exactly followed. Mills
are generally run by water. 1t would be
commendable act to give this one a
chance of running down to the Gulf by
the way of the Mississippi. A Surgeon in
the army who gets on his dignity and
neglects his duty to the injury of the SOL
diers ought to be 'put clear through by
the speediest and toughest road practi-
cable. =. The correspondence between this
dignitary and other surgeons is published
in the Cincinnati Gazette. tits to be hoped

~ Wouldn't it be sensible for the men
who say they WANT to secure peace and
maintain 'The Constitution as it is" by
calling Convention to make ''Constitu-
ton as it is" NOT, to tell us exactly what
they propose to put into it, what changes
they desire, and how they propose to ac-
complish their purpose? Wouldn't it also
be well for them to ascertain with some
degree of certainty that their friends IN
Dixie would consent to such Convention
and abide by its action? wouldn't 1t be
proper for them to inform the public OF
sorne of the advantages to be gained by the
policy they noa0 say they are in favor OF?
If we understand the rebels they spurn
the idea of Union almost as con-
temptuously as they do the Copper
| heads and 'peace" men. They don
seem to "hanker AFTER a Convention much
to speak of. Are the Copperheads any bet
ter informed of their purpose than we are
If not. why do they blister their tongues
and defile the free air of the North, with
cries of peace" when they hno'0 that the
only sspeace' possible, without destruction
as well as Dis Union, is by conquering ii
by the sword? Is the party SO oery much
more important than the country, as to
blind the partssane Can't the fools see that
they are doing their best to destroy 6othS

FOUND 1T OUT.-The New York Tribune
of the .23d thinks the news from Hooker S
army of the most cheerful character. 1t
says that Pleasanton's cavalry attack was
a success that Hooker holds Thoroughfare
Gap and Aide Gap, and presumes that the
rebels are now cleared out from the East
side of Bull Run Mountains, so that
Washington is no longer threatened, and
Lee completely bafied in any design he
may have had in that direction. II also
thinks that the whole Rebel army is now
in the Shenandoah Valley. All this may
be satisfactory. We haven't any opinion
about it, but we hope it win prove all
right in the event. We confess that we do
not expect to be satisfied so long as we hear
that Lee has an army in the field. When
we hear on good authority that it is cap
tured or destroyed, we will think good
thing is done. So long as we come short OF
this, we do not anticipate any great cause
of congratulation from that quarter.

Hutchins, in the Dubuque Herald of Sat

rs We feel certain that no celebration
of the 18th of July can be got up satisfacto-
nv to all parties. In the first place all pat
riotic utterances are offensive to copper
heads. Their party interests and personal
feelings and sympathies are on the side OF
the rebellion. Defeats and disasters to our
arms build up their party, and, as they put
party above country, or they wouldn't be
Copperheads, crafty and please them.-
They would break down the patriotic spir-
it of the people, and do anything to bring
about peace-evep .disunion peace.
On the other hand patriotic people-those
even who have made the greatest sacrifi-
ces-the wounded and maimed-those
whose sons have fallen in battle or died in
hospital or upon the march-all these are
for putting down the rebellion at all haz-
ards, and at whatever cost; leaving out
every selfish or partizan consideration,
they are ready to fight on until the last
armed rebel expires.
1t is folly to expect harmony between
these two classes. 1t is ridiculous to sup
pose any form of speech can be satisfacto-
ry to both. There is an irrepressibie con-
flict between them. There is not only
conflict of ideas, but enmity and hatred,
deep and bitter, which must inevitably be-
come deeper and bitterer, day by day, as
the war progresses. The Copperheads
have but little further to go in encouraging
rebellion, resisting the laws and stirring
up strife, to ripen this hatred into blood
shed. What folly to speak OF this matter
as a political difference of opinion? What
an absurdity to suppose men thus feeling
and acting can be gathered harmoniously
and pleasantly under one flag at 4th OF
July celebration? AS well get the armies
of Lee and Hooker together.

GSThe Louisville Democrat Of Sunday
last states that the party of Rebels who in
yaded Indiana under the command OF
Hines near Rome, had a short shrift among
the Hoosiers, the whole party, with the ex-
ception of their leader, who escaped across
the river, being either captured, killed o,
drowned. The whole number was about
seventy-five. Ofthese fifty-four were cap
tured and taken to Louisville. This af:
fair we understand to be distinct from that
nearer louisville. Their horses were al
seized, but they threw their arms into the
river. The Home Guards did this job, and
did it satisfactorily,

Some Official Light Oh Chicka'
HM1Viga,

Washington Cor. Of the Cincinnati Gazolte.l
There are one or two points concerning
the battle of Chckamauga, which have
never been understood here till the official
reports cleared them up. One of them is
why the battle was fought at all. This
must now be well understood in the West;
but here it was still unknown that the bat
tie had to be tough to get the army con
centrated in Chattanooga.
Another point is Gen. Mc0ook's assigned
reason for going to Chattanooga while the
battle was still in progress, He says in his
report that the last order he received flom
General Rosecrans was to support Gener-
al Thomas, and having made his disposi-
tions to that end, 30 report to him I Rose
grans) in person. General RoSecrans hav-
ing gone to Chattanooga, he intimates that
he followed him there to report. 1t is true
that, after receiving this order, he had seen
aud conversed with Rosecrans in person on
the field, but not having improved this op
porIpnity TO make his report, it is still tech.
nically trne that when he came to do it be
had to go back 10 Chattanooga in order tp
give literal obedience to his order q
How the line came to break in tho my
sterionsly sudden way it did on the right
is also explained. 1t will be remembered
that, passing toward the right, Barnum's
division came next to R,ynOlds's, and
Woods next to his--Wood's being not in
line, but in echelon, An aid appeared
apparently not understanding the echelou
formation, and seeing what he supposed tt
o a gap between Wood aud Reynold, 81
np rled to Rosecrans. The General, ac
opliug the order as correct, at once sen
an order to close up the line The ordel
appears to have been loosely expressed by
the staff officer who wrote it out, ant
General Wood (ThomasJ j. Wood, Of Ken
lucky, Colouel in regular army,) construed
it as an order to withdraw from his place
(where he was already beginning to b,
sharply engaged, pass to the rear of Bran
nan, aud come up to the support of Rey
nolds. OF course that opened gap througl
which an army might pour, The rebels in
stantly leaped INTO 1t, and turned upon th
weaker part of the line, and were alread
scattering the right like chaif, beior
Wood had reached his new wposition. Gen
cral Wood himself must have understoo
the effect of the order as he construed II
for he Afterwards said, showing it, 81 hol
in my hand the fatal order Of the day,
Some of General Rosecraus's friends, | bt
Mieve, claim that he put a construction o
NJ which even its careless wording woul
not justify.

$500, 1000, 900 in Treasury notes, running
