FALL OF SUNrER.-We have reports from
so many ways that Sumter, or rather what
was left after our bombardmeht, has surren-
dcred, that there can DO no doubt but that
this stronghold is in our possession. II is
also reported that Charleston has been reach.
cd by our shells and portion of it burned,
but tho report does not look probable. This
taking of Sumter ensures the final possession
of thc city, but docs not complete it; for
the rebels have very strong interior dcfences
which must be overcome before we can COM
mand entire success, and 1t may be many
days before We shall hear the news that
Charleston has surrendered, or is utterly de-
stroycd. The Richmond papers admit the
probability that tho city must fall. After
that wc shall make short work Of the other
cities on the coast. We hazard tho opinion
that success at Charleston will necessitato the
abandonment of Virginia and North CARROLL
M by the rebels.

diversion from the South TO aid the enter
prise. The expedition started from Lagrange.
Tenn, on the 18th, under command Of Lieut..
Col. Phillips OF the 10th Illinois Regiment Of
Mounted Infantry, and reached Grenada on
the 18th, driving Gen. Plummer with 1000 men
and three pieces Of artillery from the place.
They then destroyed 81 locomotives, upwards
Of 400 cars, the depot buildings, machine aud
blacksmith shops, large quantity Of Ordnance
and commissary stores. They captured num-
Der Of railroad employees and other prisoners.
After Col. Phillips had thoroughly accomplish
cd his work, Col. Winslow. from Gen. Giants
army, arrived with force from below. Tho
expedition returned to Lagrange to-day. Great
praise Is due TO Col. Phillips and his gallant
command for enduring the hardships Of such .
march through Central Mississippi In mid Au-
gust, and for so Gripping the remaining en-
crgy Of the rebellion In the Southwest.
A band Of gucrrillas drove in our pickcts nc

stitutional and rightful authority Of the Fed
eral Government. Such an imputdtion IS a
libel upon myself and the contention ,chich
you represent.
How shall We reconcile these conflicting
statements, and whom shall wo believe? The
only way to explain the affair, is, that tho
copperheads have been obliged, by the out
burst of indignation that has been so plainly
expressed among the loyal democrats who
have hitherto voted the democratic ticket,
and the disgust which has greeted those infa-
nous resolutions, to back down from their
open advocacy OF civil war in Maine, rcpu-
diation Of the State debt, and the acknowl-
edgcment Of the rebel Confederacy! And
hence it is that Mr.. b. hastcns to stultify
tho intelligence Of the people Of Maine by
saying, "Gentlemen, no matter what may be
our pledges, we are oil patriots; for when
said to Anderson tweedle DUN only meant
tweedle dec."
No subterfuges, no misrepresentation can
save this party which takes sides only with
the enemies of their country; this party
which sees nothing in the efforts and sacriii.
ces Of our government and soldicry in tins
war for the salvation Of the nation, to CON-
mend, and nothing in the treason of the reb-
els to overthrow the Constitution and Laws,
to condemn; this party which "forgcts the
soldiers who are dying for tho rights Of all
the people. in its cagerness to howl over the
wrongs of man summarily arrested for
helping the murderers Of those soldiers. -
Tho people of the Pine Tree State are loyal;
they have made history in this war of which
their children shall be proud, they have not
sent 30, 900 of their sons and brothers to the
field TO desert them now, nor will they elect
that man who pledged himself to disgrace
those brave troops by summonsing them to
abandon that enduring victory which by
their yalor is so nearly won.
Men of Maine, you have but few days
left in which to labor for the emphatic sup
port Of your Government which this election
will declare, and are you fully aroused to
the Importance of your individual effort, to
the Importance Of earnest, faithful, energet-
ic action? IL so, il is well /: and the ides Of
September will show that this State takes no
step backward, that as she has been she will
ever be, loyal to the Union, tho Constitution

GENERAL SHEPLEY.-Tho Augusta CORES.
pendent of the Boston Journal, in speaking
of those men hitherto occupying prominent
stations in the democratic party, thus speaks
Of Gen. Shepley:
Tho loss of General Shcplcy to tho demo.
cratic party is heavy bow. They couldn't
afford to lose him. For years no has been

CoPrERHEADs IN WIscoNsN.-Thc Green
Bay Advocate refuses to support the Demo
cratic ticket lately put in nomination in
that State. The editor says that no visited
tho Convention to know personally Of itt
composition and action. He says:
"rho speeches made, general tenor of in
side and ont-side talk, and tho pervadine
atmosphere of tho Convention, were OF q

are known as War democrats that they had
no rights there. That is why we do not sup

first time it has failed to support the Wis
consin democracy. Now however, he says
"Thc contest which wo arc passing through
il not now quarrel for the mastery Of par
ties it is u struggle for the fate Of nations.
We would no more entor it clad in our old
party harness. and mancuvering with our
old party tactics, than VIC would enter upon

fretted with the ambitions of earth. Let the

TEsrNoNY.-The Boston Post, at the COM
mcnccment Of the war, took loyal stand,
and while that fit Of loyalty lasted it said
some true things about discarding party. and
knowing in this contest only those who IRE
for the Union. But as soon as election time
came round, it took down from the shelf its
party democracy" brushed it up, and now
sees beauty only in that coppcrhucd light
visible in the faces of those who think tho
democratic party is Of moro consequence
than tho salvation of tho country. Notlong
since, in an article upon tho rebellion, the
Post remarked as follows:
Certainly the sccesslonists opened and keep
mp this tcar; certainly it is right to repel
force by force; certainly there must DO war
for the present, or the national capital will
DO in possession Of the Confederates; GER
tainly, according to the acts passed pursuant
to the Supreme Law, the Constitution, the
law of the land is state Of war on this re-
bellion. There is but one course for demo-
Gratis. II is to live up to their professions, Of
placing country and tho things that belong
to it before the strictly partisan, rs they al
ways have done. The question is ono of pro-
serving the. nationality and transmitting re-
publican government, not Of policy under
u government; and certainly II the people
abandon tho war they must give in to dis
solution of the Union and tho destruction of

~ Tho opponents Of tho "wickcd war"
for the Union have invented a now grievance.
Tho people Of tho loyal States have the
shocking audacity to rejoice over Federal

prefers its complaint:

bited in Washington, and tho names OF bat
ties won written upon our own, will have to
be forgotten before our national sun can over
shine again in oil its pristine visor.
We make no doubt the News is entirely
sincere. Being in the interest, IL not in the
pay, of tho rebels, it naturally has u "fcllow

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?-The New York

World in an article concerning basis of the
reconstruction of tho Union, says:
Slavery may remain untouched by the
settlement, and yet the most ardent champi.
ons of tho negro race have no grounds for
encouragement. The shock which slavery
has received from tho war, the spirit Of mod.
orn civilization. the growing use Of machin-
cry, the pp6lic opinion of the ,corld, the incul.
cations of the Christian religion, will operate
against the perpetuity of the institution
whatever may be the nature Of tho settle
ment.
What have the worshippcrs Of slavery to
say to this? They have educated themselves
to believe that they could not DO democrats
unless they shouted, cup with slavery" and
"down with the niger! !" With this class
the only idea of popularity has been to shout
for slavery, and call every body "aboition.
ists' who doubted the divinity Of the blacks.
Can 1t DO possible that Fcrnandy and the
New York World have turned "abolition-
ists"2 Wendell Phillips could not make o
truer and better statement than the one we
have quoted. The World said right. and
we endorse its statement that the spirit OF
tho age, of modern civilization and Of the
Christian religion, is opposed to tho barba-
rism of slavery. Who among us will then
vote for its protection or pcrpctuity?
