Gen. Heintzelman,s ssPowder,, Orde

Gen. HEINTzELMAN's order prohibiting
express, railroad or other forwarding COM
panies from carrying or delivering arms,
powder or ammunition of any kind, within
the limits of the States of Ohio, Indiana,
Illinois and Michigan for the next sixty
days, and forbidding the sale of those ar
ticles in the same States during the same
period of time, is not only blow at con-
stitutional law, but it is likely to operate
mischievously upon private interests, un-
less rescinded or modified. The Journal
of Commerce says:
The supplies of powder upon which the
Lake Superior mining companies depend for
the prosecution of work during the fall and
spring months must 90 forward before the
18th of September. Owing to various causes,
not more than One-third Of the powder con-
tracted for by the Lake Superior mining compa.
MES has yet reached its destination. One pow
der company has Is, 900 kegs now on the way;
another 5000 kegs; and Others have shipped
considerable quantities; all of which are stop
through the labyrinth of official formalities,
and the necessary permits obtained. The COM
panies are about to make the proper represen-
tations to Gen. Heintzelman and hope their
powder will not be delayed long enough to
prevent it from reaching Lake Superior this
fall. Other mining interests in the four States
designated by the order will suffer more or less,
unless the General and his subordinates evince
disposition to accommodate shippers.

the utter want of faith which President
LINCOLN has in the war. When the prose-
cution Of political campaign is announced
as of more consequence than a victory in
the field; when political movement by
TaURLow WEED or HENRY J. RAYMOND is
claimed as of more importance than a
movement by GRANT or SHERMAN sit is
quite time that We had a change of ad-
ministratiOn.
But what can be expected of party
which is avowedly prosecuting the war, not
for the restoration of the Union, but for
the freedom of the negro? What sort of
patriotism can be supposed to exist in such
an atmosphere? What does such party,

The Draft for 100000.

We are requested by the Adjutant Cen
eral, for the purpose of correcting a mis-
understanding which seems to have got
abroad in this State, to state that the call
upon this State for troops is for our pro-
portion of 100000 men, and will not be
changed. The impression that we would
only be called upon for our proportion of
100000 men is an error growing out of
the fact that certain other States have re-
ceived credit under this call for 100000
furnished to the navy.

Steam boating OH the Lower Mis-
sissippf.

SlSSlppls
We give the following extracts from q
private letter from young gentleman
connected with the Quartermaster Depart
ment, written to bis friend in this city to
show the risks of travelling on the Lower
Mississippi:
On my last trip to Vicksburg 1 was absent
some six weeks. Two weeks of that time 1
was in the swamps and I can assure you I had
no pleasant time. For instance, two nights I
was out in the bush or cane brake, with gun in
hand and revolver in belt, waiting to ambush
guerillas, but they didn't happen TO come our
road.
My trip home, though, on the steamer EN-.
press, was the most hazardous one / ever
made.
One mile from Gaines Landing, Chicot
county, Ark, (Aug. 49, while the boat was
steaming along at the rate of five miles an
hour, through a narrow chute, we were fired
into by masked battery of ten guns, six TO-
Founders and four Observation-Disclosures. We
had 500 passengers aboard. 1 was sitting
OuJ IOTWdlU, vi UUIlCIeOCCh dt . Z. BE, Will
a number of other passengers. The first fire
killed man Immediately under me. Before
the second fire we all fell flat on our faces, but
on unlucky chap at my feet allowed his curl
osity to get the advantage of his judgment,
and as he raised up his head to look around,
twelvepounder shell took off the larger part
of it. A moment afterward shell burst within
ten feet of my head, and about sone-third of
it came clashing through the floor within eight
inches of my right ear. While was thinking
how exceedingly uncomfortable 1 felt, two
more men were killed on my left, say fifteen
feet distant. Poor Capt. Malloy, who was
standing in the door of his room in the
Texas, had his whole head carried Of-not
vestlge OF it being left. We were under fire
OF artillery and musketry fifteen minutes, and
the larboard engine and doctor being disabled,
were about surrendering, when gunboat came
along OPPORTUNITY and lowed US out of danger
You may be assured never wish to undergo
similar affair again. a cannon ball went
through my state-room, demolishing linen
coat for me, and the larger part of the outside
door.
