New Orleans Correspondence N. Y. Evening Post.
Destruction of Pensacola by Union Sol.
dipra

New Orleans Correspondence N. Y. Evening Post.I
Destruction of Pensacola by Union SoI-
diers.
The Star of the South arrived here Friday
night from New York by way of Pensacola OF,
Tuesday. Although up to three O'Clock yea.
terday afternoon Gen. Banks had received no
intelligence respecting the destruction of PEN
sscoa, have received my information from
such source that have no hesitation In in
cooperating it in this letter.
When 1t was known that orders we're re-
ceived at Pensacola for the departure of the
Twenty eighth Maine regiment for New Or
leans, and the occupation of the forts and navy
yards only by the two remaining regiments,
the Fifteenth Maine and Twenty-eighth Con-
necticut, the soldiers seemed to think that the
entire evacuation OF the place to the enemy
was intended, and many Of them were heard
to swear that they would burn the place before
they lefs. Accordingly on Thursday noon
fires made their appearance, and for three DAYS
and nights the place was filled with smoke and
fame. At nigt the scene ia described as terri
bly, magnificent. 4
There bad been no quarrel between the ciii-
zens and soldiers of which have been able to
learn. The soldiers were not intoxicated when
the fires commenced, but they broke open
drug store and obtained o quantity Of liquors
before their progress was checked. They burned
the houses they had themselves occupied, St.
Mary's Hall, o fine hotel 10 the best part OF the
town, all the dwellings but those Of Maj. Chase
and Col. Mallory. There were but few hun
dred people In the place, who gathered such
movables as they could collect, and assembled
with them in the public squares. Officers and
soldiers must have been In state OF utter de-
moralization. The officers seem to have had no
influence over the men. They are reported as
having used their endeavors to arrest the work
of desolation. All military opeTatio aud dis.
cipline were at an end. Guards would be sta
toned to protect property, and on the instant of
the disappearance of the officer, the guard
would FIRE the property ne had been placed in
charge Of. Col. D5er, commanding the post,
rode about, report says, almost distracted at the
conduct Of his men. He gave orders, tis said,
that persons caught setting fires should be in
ttintly shot, but not one executed them for
long while. Finally, the long roll was beaten,
the men were gathered into the navy yard and
confined Col. Dyer sent notice int, town, says
one of my informants, that If any citizen would
come forward aud take the oath OF allegiance,
they would be protected in person and property.
This socount is gathered from parties just
from Pensacola, and may be an exaggeraiion
of the true state of the case In some PARTICULARS,
but am persuaded that II is, in the main,
trust worthy.

ing amusing account Of the turning point in
Gen. SUMMERS early life:

time in winter when the roads were dangerous,
going down o steep hill, the stage sleWed and
turned over, but the horses kept on. One OF the
passengers pushed out Of the door on the upper
side of the coach and climbed upon the box and
attempted to take the reins from Summers
hands. "You let the reins alone or I'll throw
you off J" said the driver with determination.
The passenger wisely abandoned bis attempt
at interference, and Sumner guided the team
firmly ill it was safe to stop them, dragging
the overturned coach along, and so saved pas.

The Republican cannot scare US by any
of its old time bugaboos. We are Abo-
litionists. We are more. As Gen. Lane
announced himself at St. Louis, so do we.
We are ObHterationists. We desire no,
only to abolish, but 10 obliterate slavery,
and every vestiss of the fetid society
which Its corruplions engendered. For
this purpose we have sought not only to
strike the letters from the slaves limbs,
but to throw wide open the path by which
the bondman could reach enfranchised
manhood. For this we advocated and
sustained Military Emancipation. The
slave of yesterday the soldier of to-day /;
must be. will be, the CITIZEN of to morrow.
This is inevitable 1t must CONS. 1t fol-
lows in tbs patural order of things. We

We. hail it. We aid it. There can be
no peace without justice. While the hum
best mans rights are denied ours are en-
dangered. We would not trust the Re
publican to decide whether De should
vote or not. We know by bitter expert
ences how it would act. The dark storms
of Kansas history tell too fearful of how
its friends maintain the freedom of voting
