ANOTHER GUERRILLA oUTRAGR.-We learned
last evening Of an outrage committed by
party Of guerrlllas, which parallels anything
that has yet come to our knowledge of the out
landish doings of these depraved outlaws. On
Sunday night last, some six or eight OF these
"pdrtisdnS," as they are styled by the rebel au-
thorities, proceeded to the house Of an old man
residing about six mllC3 from Burke's Station,
named Jacob Yelberton, and took possession
of his premisc5 In the name of the United
States, several of the party being dressed In the
uniforms of Union soldiers. They said they
were authorized to search the house, and at
once proceeded to ransack 1t for booty. Upon
a remonstrance being entered by the old man,
he was summarily knocked down, and his wife,
quite an aged woman, severely abused and
maltreated. The Idillans succeeded In finding
about two hundred and fifty dollars in money
and appropriated all the clothing they could
lay hands upon, even to tho old mans coat and
boots. The money was the hard.earned savings
of several years. industry, and the loss o.
which, with the clothing, bedding, blankets
&C., leaves the aged pair In a truly destitute
condition. Journal, Sd.

THE MARCH OF FREEDOM.

Look at the map of the United States and
trace the march OF freedom during the Admin
istration of Mr.. Lincoln. The mathemat atical
precision of the great movement is truly strik-
ing. The southern half of the States OF Ohio,
Indiana, and Illinois were previously so
hemmed in by semi-circle Of slavery that the
current of free emigration had been interrupted,
and Southern sentiments made headway there.
By freeing West Virginia and Maryland at the
East, and Missouri and Kansas at the West,
this has been changed, and the stratum Of free
States stretches uubroken from the Atlantic to
the Great Plains.
Then, in the other direction, the inaugura-
tion OF freedom in Missouri, Arkansas, and
Louisiana stretches a complete chain Of free
common ealths from Lake Superior TO the
Gulf OF Mexico, on the west bank OF the Mis-
sissippi river. Were 1t not for the efforts Of
the rebel armies TO recruit their forces in Ken
lucky and Tennessee, slavery might manage to
hold on much longer in those States; but just
at the time when the friends Of slavery are
most needed at home TO vote in its defence,
they are swept away into the rebel armies, so
that II is quite probable there may be an as
tonishing change visible at the ensuing cleo
tion.
This would reduce slavery to the scaboard
entirely, where 1t is still powerful. The free
State regime, organized in Louisiana under the
auspices OF Gen. Banks, has passed beyond an
experiment and is becoming permanent, the
old population Of the State acquiescing in the
settled condition of things and participating
