MilIard Fillmore OH the Abolition Party.

M1iIard Fillmore OH tfe Abolition PARTY
In 1859, upon the return Of ex- President
Fillmore from Europe, lie made speech a,
Albany, New York, which it is well to recur
to at present. The words were indeed pro
phetc. He said:
We see political party presenting
candidates for the Presidency and Vice
Presidency, selected for tie first time
from the free States alone. With the
avowed purpose Of elec,ing these candidates
by the sutirages of one pa tv Of The Union
only. to rule over the whole Uniec States
Can 1t be possible that those who are enqa-
ged IN such measure can have seriously
reflected upon the consequences which must
Inevitably follow in case Of success? Can
tLey have the madness or folly to believe
that our Southern brethren would submit to
be governed by such Chief Magistrate?-
Suppose that the South, having majority
OF the electoral votes. should declare that
they would only have Shareholders for Presi.
dent and Vice President, and should elect
such hy exclusive sutlraaes to rule over us a,
the North. Do you think we would submit
to ia Not for a moment. And do you be-
lieve that your Southern brethren are less
'ehe"Ne q" inns SutJe't lnah you are, or less
jealous of their rights? If you do, let me
tell you that You are mistaken. And there
fore you must see that if this sectional party
succeeds 1t inevitably leads to the des,ruc-
tion of this beautiful fabric reared by our
toretalhers, and bequeathed to us as a price
less Inheritance tell you, my friends, that
| feel deeply, and therefore speak earnestly
on this subject; for | feel that YOU are in
danger. am determined to make clean
breast of It. will wash my hands of the
consequences, whatever they may be, and
tell you that We are treading upon the brink
of volcano that is liable at any moment to
burst forth and overwh helm the nation.
might by soft words inspire delusive hopes,
and thereby win votes. Bnt can never
consent to be one thing at the North and
another at the South. | should despise N.Y.
self if should be guilty of such duplicity.

 TIE GREAT BArrLE.-Gen Meade on Satur day issued general order thanking the Army of the Potomac in behalf of the country fc, the glorious result of previous operations, and announcing that its task was not yet accom- plished. That task-the destruction, so far as possible, of the rebel army of Northern Vir ginia-it is now moving to accomplish. Il was ascertained on Sunday morning that Lee had commenced his retreat during Saturday night, and it was soon found that he was en, deavoring to reach the Potomac, their rear, guard having passed through Emmettsburgh on Sunday morning at daylight. Gen. Meade's headquarters were at Creagerstown, Md, about fifteen miles north of Frederick on Sunday In addition to the rebel pontoon bridge at Williamsport, their bridge at Dam No. had been destroyed, and other preparations had been made to prevent crossing. Our caval " was also active at all poirts. Gen. Kill patrick, on Saturday last, intercepted 2 re treating train of rebel wagons near Monterey on the Hagerstown and Gettysburgh road, cap turing 900 prisoners, including 200 wounded officers, l50 wagons and two guns-the rebel' being completely surprised and unable to make any serious resistance.

Yhe Glorious News.
ssub Hos sisno vincimus.,'

This has been, indeed. week of battle, and, thank Cop, a week of victory, and victo- rious rejoicing. The Army of the Potomac, so often defeated, through its incompetent Gen. eralship, but never disbeartened, has at length achieved glorious, and we trust, decisive vic tory over the rebel hosts, under Gen. Lee and while We write, is in full pursuit of the re. treating snemy. It would seem that at length the tide has turned, and the proud hosts that but yesterday threatened to invade the loyal States and bring the fruits of their own ill-be- gotten war. to our own homes, have today been sepnlssd, driven back, and, if present appear. ances are at all to be relied upon, it will be al- most by miracle of generalship if any con siderable portion of them escape annihilation. News that will thrill the hearts of every loyal man throughout the land, since it seems to bring the end of all the war visibly nearer. There will undoubtedly be much more fighting and-hard fighting by the armies on the Poto mac, before the relellion shall be crushed, but, ws may well believe, that in the great battles of the 2d and 4th of July, the rebellion re. ceived it's death-wound.
 But not alone by the victories of the Army oi the Potomac was the anniversary of our Ma tcnal Independence rebaptized.with glory The news we have of the fall of Vjcksburg on the 4th adds 2 crowning lustrs to the glorious events of the day, and, of itself, proves that the so-called Confedsracy is doomed, and the rebel hosts with it. The particulars which we give are received by telegraph, but are enough to show that the long and skillfully conducted siege of Gen. Grant has at last been crowned with success, the strongest position of the re- bsls taken. and, with the exception of the DO. eition at Port Hudson, which must soon fall- the Mississippi is free and the Rebel Confed- eraoY broken in twain.
 How different the status of affairs, how more gloriously hopeful than on the 4th of July 1861 or '62. Two years ago we received the news of the battle of Bull Run. One year ago of the Seven Days retreat. This week we chron- icle at once the defeat of Lees army and the fall of Vicksburg! Our readers will draw their own conclusions from the catastrophe, and the glorious news will, as we have sald hllthe hearts of all loyal men with profound joy and gratitude.

The Judges of the Supreme Court of Maine have made the following important decisions, on two questions submitted by Gov. Coburn First-Has city or town any legal right te pledge it's credit to raise money for the pur pose of paying the communication of such ol it's citizens as may be drafted into the military service of the United States, under the act passed by the last Congress? Second Has a city or town any legal right to raise money by taxation to provide commission for such cit. izens as may thus be drafted? The Court de. cides both questions unanimously in the mega. tive.
