DIED-On Thursday morning. Nav
2lst, IN Allegheny township, AGNES RE-
GINA, daughter of Augustine and Agnes
Walters, aged years, l month and 20
days. .E
Farewell darling. thou art gone.
Early must we mourn for you,
But thy worldly cares are done,
And thou hast found that home so true.
Yes. then hast sought thy native home,
That bright celestial shore
Where cares and trials are unknown,
And parting is no more. ''
lis true we mourn our little one. -..-. --..ss
That made our home so bright.
Who was called away as life begun,

Why should we idly mourn for vou,
"Who was but lent no. given.' ...
Remembering that Gods words are t,ne.
".Of such is the kingdom of H arcn."

We were not personally acquainted with
the deceased, but learn that she was be-
loved by all who knew her, and that
her premature death, will be deep af-

away SO young, has exchanged this life

e Mr. - - n. Y You will exs
cuse me for addressing you, a stranger to
me, but from what | hear of you we need
no formal introduction. We are both loyal
men, ami as such are friends at sight. My
object in addressing you on this occasion is
to learn if there can be organized in your
town a loyal league rendezvous. You are
perhaps aware that our Lnval Leagues of
this State are to hold State Convention at
this place. on the 9th instant. ] am in>
formed that your League is in process OF
formation. / dare say you know there are
two Leagues-one public. another secret
the former civic and the latter military in
its plans; and from what am told of your
peculiar abilities, l especially wish you to
take part in the latter.
1t is essentially necessary that this organi
zation should be speedily effected. the in
creasing holiness and numbers of the Cop
perl eads in this State are such that they
mist be rut down before the next PRESS
dental election. or they may out vote us at
the polls. Their clamor about free speech.
arbitrary arrests and the Constitution is mis-
leading the people. We must not be too
careful or timid about the measures necessa>
ry 10 keep them under. 1t may be tha' the
military forces Of our inner Loyal Leagues.

vate views are quite different from those
he publicly enunciated in that meeting.
Why Mr.. Scott speaks in public to the
people one way, and in his private con-
versation entertains different views, we
are unable to say and unless the speaker
mistake the temper and intelligence of the
people of the mountain county, we are
unable to conjecture what designs he had
in coming here to abuse and vilify the
Democratic party, other than to ensnare
unsuspecting Democrats into the enthral-
dom of the "Union League"

prisoner before them. The offense is de-
fined, the penalty declared, the mode of
trial ordained, by men who, knowing
nothing of the persons to be affected by
them, are governed by strict sense of
abstract justice. The citizen has per-
feet knowledge of his rights, remedies and
liabilities; the law is in the statute book,
neither posted on tall column nor rem
dered still more il!egible by concealment
in the future caprices of discretion
which makes light of long established
precedents, and classes as crimes what our
fathers inscribed in the Constitution as
inviolate RIGHTS. Under the just and be-
nificent system we lave heretofore enjoy
ed, no man, even in the nightmare of a
diseased Imagination, ever dreamed that
the day would so soon come when the
arbitrary will of one man would clothe
itself with the combined functions of leg
islator, judge and jury, making the law
for cases after they have arisen, and va
rying the penalty by a strange and
unaccountable freak, interpreted by a
friendly pen as significant practical
joke. Such grim and grotesque jokes,
where the thing sported with is so pre-
cious as the rights of American citizen,
may remind the world of another incident
in the life of a Roman Emperor, which
our respect for the high office you hold
will not allow us to mention.
Mr.. Lincoln, you were educated a
! lawyer, and from the great amount of
leisure you must have enjoyed during the
interval of your rural pracsice TO qualify
yourself, by fit studies, for your present
exalted station, it is TO be presumed that
you are well read in the literature Of your

equally true, that the majority of those
who attend and profess to belong to those
"leagues," know nothing of the secret
oath, because they are not safe to be en-
trusted with it and it is policy for their
leaders to keep them in ignorance, as to
the real purposes of the organization, be-
cause, they count on their votes as a
sure thing any how. Thus, does this
grand scheme work; while the leaders
are all sworn and bound together for
certain specific purposes, the men who
are allowed to attend those public demon
strations only, are duped and led to re-
ligiously believe, that the "Union
League" is based upon the purest mo-
tives Of assisting the Government in sup
preston of the rebellion. We subjoin
the following letter from the New York
Syracuse Courier, furnished by the gen
tlemen to whom it was addressed, which
will give the reader some idea of the
secret workings of this midnight organi-
zation. Although Republican in poll
ties, he was not SO fardepraved as to secretly
connive with his more ultra brethren for
the destruction of this government and
the annihilation of American liberty

success was signal and complete.
Early in the morning of the 10th, Gen. Nc
Clernand's corps was put in motion, while Gen.
Hoveys division advanced across the open field
to the foot of Champion HILL
AT III the battle was commenced. Champion
Hill was covered with timber Hanked on both
sides with ravnes and gullles. and 10 many
places covered with an almost impenetrable
growth of scrubby bushes.
The battle ragged terribly from Il A. NJ. to 3
z. NJ. Gen. Hovey's division carried the heights
in gallant style, making dash on the first bat
terry and capturing 1t from the rebels.
Lying thick in the vicinity We're guns, gun
carriages, broken cassions, knapsacks. blankets,
small arms and other debris, all attestiug the
terrific struggle for the ground
AT this juncture the rebels were reinforced,
and Gen Hovey was slowly d.iven back. Gen.
Qulmhy, with brigade, went to the support of
Gen. Hovey, and the ground was speedily reoc-
cupled, and the rebels finally repulsed
At the commencement of the engagement
Gen. Logan's division marched to the brow of
the HILL forming line of battle on the right
of Gen. Hovey, and advanced in gallant style,
sweeping everything before him to the edge of
the woods
In the front of Gen. Logan the battle was of
the NEST desperate character imaginable. Tho
rattle of musketry was incessant, and the re-
ports were so blended that single discharge
was rarely heard.
Gen Logan captured two batteries, large
number of prisoners, small arms &C.

VIcKsBuRG, May 90, 6 A. NJ.
Hon E NJ. Stanton, Secretary Of War:
Gen. Grant won great and momentous
victory over the rebels under Pemb erion, on the
JACKSON and Vicksburg road at Banks Creek,
on the 10th inst.
Pemberten had most formidable position on
the crest Of wooded hill, over which the road
passes longitudinally He had about 25 900 men
The battle began at ii A. Nj. and was gained
at 2. M. Its brunt was borne by Hovey's
division of McClernand 8 corps, anu by Lo-
CAMS and Crocker'S divisions of Mcpherson 8
corps.
Hovey alta cked the hill and held the greater
part of it till o clock p. NJ, when having lost
1000 men be was succeeded by Boomers and
Holmes brigade OF Croker division, by which
the conflict was ended IN that part of the field.
Boomer lost 500 men
Logan operated on the right and cut off the
enemy direct retreat, SO that he was compelled
TO escape by his right flank through the woods.
Logan lost 400 killed and wounded He took
about 1900 prisoners.
On the 18th, advancing to the Big Black, we
fought Pembarton again at the bridge there and
captured three thousand more prisoners. We
fought In rifle pits, protected bya difficult bayou
full otabattis. Lawle's brigade ofMcClernend's
charged the rifle pits magnifcently, and took
more prisoners than their own numbers. Penn.
berton burned the bridge and returned to Vicks-
burg with only three cannon out of sixty that he
had taken out.
Building four bridges over the Big Black,
Gen Grant arrived before the town on the eve
ming OF the 18th, and now holds it closely inves-
ted. Lie had opened line of supplies via
Chickasaw Bayou, having cut the town off from
Haines' Bluff, which is abandoned by the enemy ,
and which Gen. Grant will occupy.
There was sharp fighting through the day yes
terday. Steele won and holds the upper bluffs
and the enemy upper water batteries and gets
water from the Mississippi
Sherman's corps lost yesterday 500 killed and
wounded. Mcpherson who holds the center,
lost little, as did McClernand who holds the left.
The gunboats kept the enemy alert during the
night, and probably the town will be carried to-
day. There are from fifteen to twenty thousand
men in it.
