me ImbroxIIo at lisbon.

The announced yesterday mnrnir 2,
that the L lited States war stes.. =
CARA and Sacramento had been fred upon
by the forts of Lisbon, under the direction
of the Portuguese authorities, and that an
American seaman had been killed, viii
create universal indignation, and, in the
minds of those pugnaeious individuals, who
desire the United States to defy 'the
world in arms" feeling of Joy. What
action our authorities will take in the mat
ter we cannot predict. We have no doubt
however, that they will take pains to learn
all the facts in the case before proceeding
to any decisive measures. We hope the
people will also maintain q wise reticence.
and refrain from any passionate and un-
thinking demonstrations until they are ac-
quainted with the whole case. Meantime
it is well to remember that the Niagara and
Sacramento in sense invited the fire of
the Portuguese forts by dIsobeying 8 regu-
lstion Of the Portuguese government
which had been clearly announced to them.
The right of that government to make
this regulation may be disputed. Similar
regulations have, however, been made in
reference to our vessels by all the Euro
pean nations since the war began, and
have never been objected to by our gov
eminent until the Issuance of the Presi-
dents proclamation on the subject, on
Tuesday nexlt.

The village of New Liberty, Ill, on the
Ohio river, has been almost totally annihil-
sted by the high water in that stream, aid
ed by severe gale that swept over that
region on Sunday, the 18th instant. Houses
were demolished, and the inhabitsnts driv-
en- out, until there were but two dwellings
that had not been destroyed. Nearly all
the houses we're swept from their founda-
tions. The damage in the town was esti-
mated at $4,000, and in the surrounding
country still greater damage was done.
A most singular phenomenon, in the
shape of lake of water, hss made its sp-

road, covering about one hundred acres Of
land, and varying in depth, according to
the Irregularities of the ground, from ten
to thirty feet-some say fifty feet. The
water is said to come up with force. A
subterranesn stream has probably bursted
upward. The water is sai6 to fall little
during the day and rise during the night.
Il is certainly great curiosity, and has
been visited by q great many people.

The Newspaper Pres of Riehmond.

The Newspaper Press of Richmond.
Walking Tar out on the main street this
morning says the correspondent of the
New York World, we came upon a me-
dium-sized red-bearded man, dressed in
shabby black clothes, and holding his right
arm in sling. This was Edward A. Pol
lard, late editor of the Examiner, and au-
thor of Southern history of the rebellion.
He crippled his arm in one of those fights
which every Richmond journalist must be
prepared to make. John NJ. Daniels, the
owner of the Examiner, died q month ago.
He had been shot through the leg Just be-
fore by E. G. Gilmore, the defsulting and
gambling treasurer of the Confederacy.
Daniels was a scholarly and enterprising
man he had been foreign minister under
Buchanan, and fought five duels. Pollard
and brother had been workers on the Ez-
GnlineT, and assisted to give it that fearless
and hsshy tone which took so well in Rich
mond. The Dispatch was the business
paper, and had most Of the advertising
patronage.
It was circumspect and neutral, but es-
poused, of course, the natural or rebel side.
Hugh Pleasants edited it. The Enquirer
was the most digni6ed paper in Richmond,
and had semi-oficisl character. Tyler
and Allegro were iJs owners-the former q
son Of John Tyler, the ex- President. It had
the best appointed job Office in the South 4;
and this, in conjunction with the govern
ment printing, made it very profitable The
Enquirer was long the ablest paper in ths
South, excepting the Charleston Mercury.
Its editors have been long line of dashing
characters, as bold as they were brilliant.
Mr.. Richie, one of its former owners, killed
Ple2ssnts, the editor of the WIiq, in rife
duel. He was the husband of Mrs. Anna
Cora Mowatt, who has been in Italy during
the war.
The Sentinel was q new concern, started
only two years ago, by refugee editors from
fredericksburg. 1t was Davis official Or
gan, and was bitterly rebel.
The Whi9 is the only journal extant. It
is owned by Ira William Smith, dealer in
clothing, who owns the building in which
it is printed, but otherwise has no literary
sfinities. He has made It intensely loyai.
The editor Is alleged to be one John Ora
ham, Richmond Bohemian, who writes
as well upon one side as the other. Smith
is Northern man. At present the WHig
is spublished in the evening. Its evening
edition was commenced two years back BY
New Orleans refugee named De Poute,
an aid to General Msgruder. That was
the frst evening paper ever issued in Rich-
mond. The Richmond papers had army
correspondents until the trouble with print
ing materials compelled them TO reduce the
size Of the papers and use only outline
matter. The army carriers were ALWAYS
soldiers detached for that duty. Colonel
Ould, the truce commissioner, furnished the
Richmond papers regularly with Northern
exchanges.

Rebels I'm Kentucky.

General Palmer has done q very sensi-
bic thing In making arrangements for re-
ceiving the surrender of all rebel troops
in Kentucky, and declaring that those who
still hold out shall no longer be entitled to
the rights of war, but shall be hunted down
as outlaws. After Lees surrender there
can be no further excuse for resistance.
All fighting that will be done by rebels, in
the future, at least in Kentucky, will be
for plunder and not for the Confederacy
The movement of General Palmer is,
therefore, exceedingly Opportune, and will
result in the almost entire cessation Of hos.
tilities in Kentucky.

Tho PrOgre.s of our Arms.

The telegraph brought us two splendid
items of news yesterday moIning-she
capture of Selma and the occupation of
Lynchburg. The fact that we hear stimuli
tsneously of two successes in parts of the
South so far separated from each other
affords another striking Illustration of the
manner in which cur armies, under the
management ofthe great Lieutenant GEN
eral, are engaged, throughout the land, in
cooperating with and aiding each other.
Selma, which was captured by General
Wilson's command on the I'd inst, is a
large and aourishing town, in the heart of
Alabama, situated on the Alabama river,
q hundred and twenty miles northwest of
Mobile, and forty-f due west from Mont
gomery. Its location has rendered it of
great importance to the Confederscy for
manufacturing and commercial purposes
and it has been made principal depot for
upphes and manufactures. All these were
of course destroyed by our forces. Large
numbers Of Union prisoners have also been
imprisoned there at various times. Gener-
alsForrest and Roddy, with their entire
commands, were captured. This disposes of
the entire rebel army in Mississippi and AL
ADAMS, outside Of Mobile. Montgomery, the
capital of the state, is reported captured. It
will thus be seen that Wilson's expedition,
thus far, has been eJmple success, and
has demonstrated the weakness of the re-
bellion in Alabama and Mississippi, as
much as Shermsn's movements did in Geor-
gis and the Csrolinss.
The position and importance Of LYNCH
burg every one understands. It is. in
point of population, the second town in
VirginiA and its location, in the centre of
s rich agricultural district, and at the Juno
tion of the james river canal with the
Petersburg and Lynchburg and Virginia
and Tennessee railroads makes It of vital
Importance. The fact that It was occupied
by portion of GrifRn's eorps-the Fifth,
continuing Grants left-shows thst the
work Of rePOssessing Virginia is rapidly
going forward. If We hold it, the James
river canal, and the two railroads referred
to, will undoubtedly be put in repair, and
the entire State Of Virginia peacefully
brought back under Federal rule.
Thus every day brir gs Us more and bet
ter news of the collapse of the rebellion.
Thus every morrow gives Us fresh reason
for thanksgiving and praise. s..

The Reoonstruction of virginia,

The recent movements of the rebel
legislature of Virgins, looking toward
the resdmission of the State of Vir-
ginia into the Union under the aus
pices of her rebal legislature and
executive will awake grave thoughts
in the minds of ell loyal men Is this to
be the punishment of treason-Ltis to be
the reward for four years of bloody rebel
lion-this the example to be made of lead
ing traitors that the rebel legislature of
Virginis, who have been foremost and
lsGdOss in t-Aieoreus action, who hurried
the State out of the Union against her
will, who have oppressed and persecuted
the true-hearted loyslists, black and white
through the State, who have been elected
because of their conspicuous and notorious
subservieney to the rebel cause-that these
scoundrels, forsooth, shall still rule the re-
constructed and purified State Of Virginia ?
The oppressed Unionists of the Old Do.
miniOn, the free and loyal people of the
North, will have something to say on this
subject -?
