Wilson's Campaign.

At any other period of the war, the terri
Bile blows dealt the enemy by our Western
cavalry in this adventurous camp2ign would
have thrilled the country with sense of
triumph This expedition by Wilson is the
great raid" of the war An examination
of map is necessary to understanding full
ly the daring and destructive sweep made
through the very heart of the Gulf States.
In the first place the famous rebel cavalry,
under Forrest, was defeated and almost an
initiated at Selma, Alabama, and the rebel
arsenals and manufactures at that place de-
stroyed. The main body of our forces NOV
ed eastward, capturing Montgomery, West
Point, Columbus and Maccn, making appa-
rently for Savannah, scattering the mill
tia on all sides, running the ony remaining
strand of railroad that might be of use to the
rebels breaking up their machine shops, and
annihilating not only their military stores
but rendering the manufacture of material
for future campaigns impossible. We do
not wonder that Joe Johston said to Gener-
al Sherman, of Wilson, Stop him, for
Gods sake, for he is raiding through the
country and tearing everything to pieces. -

From Selma, Alabama.

Among prisoners captured a, Selma, are
$50 officers. Lieut.. General Dick Taylor
made his esq ape on steamer. n. b. For
rest, DAN Adams, Roddy Armstrong and
McCausland, escaped also. Forests ord
nance officer, Capt. Bond, is reported woun-
ded. Croxhan and McCook attacked Jack
sons front and rear, at Tryon, and having
travelled by different roads, their attacks were
simultaneous He must have been destroyed.
The destruction of the Centrevillc bridge
and Croxhan's movements toward Tuscaloo-
sa, rendered it impossible for Forrest to
carry out his plans.

THE INGERSOLL DIPPICUr,Ty

The Bulletin furnishes the following r.-
ticuiars of the lngerson difficulty. Win
has produced considerable sensstioo :;
Philadelphia When the train r.0ob9 %
Ninth and Green streets a party of ,us1
got around the front door of the car for III ~
purpose of giving Mr. Ingersoll a nsr,;ns
salute of groans. The obnoxious indiv;5nqI
passed out Of the back door and 90, ma,
Wallace street. The crowd followed hin
At Eighth street, Mr.. 1ngersoll turned ahan,
and faced the party. Capt. J. II. VIII
ington, Jr., OF the 18th Regiment Penpsvi.
vania Volunteers, then stepped forward s1d
said; ''Ingersoll, I'm soldier | bsys
risked my life for my country | think ros
owe an apology TO the country for ro,.
speech, and particularly to the soldiers "
Ingersoll merely replied, "Go to he'll"
The Captain raised his cane to strike him
but the blow was warded of by IpgersoN
with his cane. The two men crossed nansa
for few sesonds Ingersoll received en-
on the left side of his face, and broka h.
cane upon the arm of Capt. Withiny,nn
Mr.. IngerSoll then drew back about ten -.
ces, took from his pocket q revolver ana
cooked it. Some Of the crowd scattered =,
this warlike movement of Ingersoll, when
he was seized by police officer Il was a,
much as the officer could DO 10 keen the neo-
pie from laying violent hands upon his ps,.
son. The prisoner was finally landed AT the
police station, followed by all excited c-ow5
which augmented at every step. Aldermsn
Massey was sent for, and Mr. Ingersoll gfr.
en- hearing. At the station house Can,
Wilmington gave his testimony, which va,
to the same effect as given above. Office
Jones testified that he arrested the man with
q revolver in his hand, and that i. gas eo.I-
ed, Here Ingersoll remarked defantly sni
Extensively: Yes, you all ran ike E PACK
of sheep when did not. - You are Il
ar, shouted one, and the crowd made an
other rush for Ingersoli and the police With
great difficulty succeeded in keeping them
back. Capt Wilmington remarked: "Tvo
been in the battle field where the bullets few
thick and fast, and I've seen too many Q.
them to be scared by revolver" Alderman
Massey held Mr.. Ingersoll in $50, 600 bonds
Ingersoll applied TO several persons to 60
bail for him, but al refused.

The Assassination Conspiracy.

AWashington A dispatch says: The search
the would be murderer of Secretary Seward,
has developed we'll and deliberately ma
tured plan of assassination, and infamous
rascality, murder and arson unparalleled in
the annals of crime. Their investigations
have not yet reached the point at which it
is proper to disclose the extent and various
ramifcations of this murderous plot Ma
ny unsuspected and unsuspecting parties are
involved, and the evidence is complete to
show that it was neither the freak of mad
man, nor an act of individual hate, but a
scheme concocted by the leaders of the re-
bellion, and relied upon by them in the
hour of most desperate need as one of the
means of success in their great reasonable
enterprise.
1t is in evidence that President Lincoln,
Vice President Hamlin, the members of the
Cabinet, Gen. Grant. Chief Justice Chase,
and Speaker Colfa1 were marked as the
victims of certain rebel conspirators and as
sins There is little doubt that the plot O.
riginated with the chief political rebels In
Richmond planned in detail in Canada, and
was to be executed in Washington There
is also no doubt that secret meetings were
held at the residences Of secessionists in the
city to the further execution of the fiendish
plot. The arrests already made of persons
known to be parties to the murder of Presi-
dent Lincoln, and the facts thus far ascer-
tanned of the hellish purpose of the rebel
assassns to strike from existence all the
leading men Of the national government,
thus leaving it without a legal head, and the
reins of government to be seized by any er-
ratio, ambitious General who might at the
time be in the field at the head of an army,
will, when all is made known, startle our
people and astound the world

land, where Booth and Harold found tenn
porary refuge, is situated four or five miles
