| 4 dispatch from Wilmington announces the
! Withdrawal Of Admiral Porter's fleet. We pre-
sumo The statement is correct. One of the
great, u naval expeditions Of modern times thus
reaches 4. miserable conclusion.
Supl- newspapers last week made haste to
declar. sat the failure OF this expedition was
charl re 10 Gen. Butler. Naval officers will
scarcely thank those papers for their sudden
display Of zeal in behalf Of the naval serYice.
The fore under Admiral Porter consisted OF
about seventy vessels and six hundred guns.
Gen. Buffers command did not reach, oil
told, seven thousand men. In order, there
fore, 70 throw the responsibility of failure on the
latter. Admiral Porter must declare that his
enormous fleet was superseded in Importance
~ two or three brigades of colored troops, and
that his work became impracticable as soon as
their cooperation was withdrawn.
| But if he declares this, why did he begin his
oltack on Fort Fisher thirty-six hours before the
troops arrived |!
When the lard operations failed, Admiral
Porter took care ~ have IT announced through
the press that he was dissatisfied with Gen.

time for explanation arrives, he will probably
be foundl abundantly able to defend himself.
Bnt since these matters get into the newspapers,

spOnSible banks, would not bear the ight'
The fact is that this whole subject requires very
strict ovcrhaulng and an entire reform,
belief being that Of the many millions expended
by Mr.. Orison Blunt to secure recruits in this
city, far more than full half Of the money thus
discussed, has gone directly to enrich with
enormous fortunes that very worst and most
desperate class Of all the dangerous classes in
our city,-the bounty swindlers alias sub
stitute brokers'" and the subordinate agents in
their employment. e., perjurcd officers OF
the Government, and gangs of reckless
"bounty Jumpers" Our Legislature should
call upon the Police authorities for a full record
Of all the persons arrested and locked up during
the past year, who were released without trial
in consideration Of enlisting; or who, having
been tried and sentenced, have had their sen.
tence suspended for the same reason. This
statement should also contain the charges for
which these persons were arrested, together
with the pseudOnyms or aliases under which
they were mustered and sworn in as soldiers OF
the Union. This list should be kept secret, SO
far az tho public is concerned-only two copie,
thereof being made, one Of which should bo
forwarded to Provost Marshal General Fry, for
his notation thcreupon Of the names Of all such
priSon-recruits as have subsequently deserted;
and then publication of the names Of such
.desertcrs, together with the full cir
cumstances under which they enlisted,
would not only be in order, but might prove an
act Of the highest public utility. This course
would kcepAc secret Of such other prisOn-re-
cruitS a. may have remained faithful to their
oath Of enlistment, and who, perhaps, may have
resolved to expiate the ofenses of their former
lives by gailantry and devotion in the service OF
their country. II was once our fortune to trace
out one lot Of four prisoL-gecruits who had en-
listed under the orders, and to crafty particu-
lar purpose of, certain police justice. They
included both white and coIored prisoners. Ono
of them--a very decent Young white man-was
in the service, and gave incontestablc proof that
ne had been deiraudcd OF fiye.S!xths OF his
bounty at the time Of enlistment: while, of the
three Others. nothing further could be learned
than that they had deserted from their respec-
two regiments within very few days after
Joining. How often think YOU, General Fry.
have those three men dumped the bounty"
since that first experiment.

having been elected in 1852 from q district
(Chautauqua and Cattaraugus,) which had al
ways been and always remained opposed to that
party. Taking bis seat in December. 1853, lie
was at once confronted by the Nebraska bill OF
Senator Douglas, which he resisted TO tho ut
most, When the Republican party was organ
lied, he joined it, and was President OF the
State Convention of that party when the wings
united with it at Syracuse in the Autumn OF
1855. Thrown out OF Congress in 1854 by the
Know Nothing tarore, he was triumphantly re-
turned in 1876. and has since been rcchoscn o
each successive election, up to 1852, by over
whelmirg maiorities. His old district gave
him nearly 1900 majority for Governor in tho
recent election.
Gov. Seymour has from the outset been o
deadly foe to the War for the Union. llo in
sisted from the first that the Republicans had
no right to be Republicans-lhat it was not
allowable for the North in 1850 to do III
resistance to Slavery Extension what Thomas
Jefferson proposed end voted for III YEA.
In the Tweddle Hall Convention, in Fcbru-
airy, IS6l, he insisted that The Slave States
would all secede and could not be oyerborne-
that TIE Union could only be saved b. prostra-
ton before the Slave Power. In this faith, be
soon after proposed that New-York should join
the Southern Coniederacy, aud he haacver since
been sailing virtually on the same tack. The
reconstruction he seeks as the fl conclusion
of our great struggle is substantially this. A.

election two years since ha, been devoted to

People to regard The Federal Administration,

possible figure the number and the efficiency OF

Ing efforts, is specially directed to this end

Our lat dispatch from Washington states
that Messrs. rranci, =. Blair (senior) and his
son Montgomery have gone to Richmond, and
that it is understood That their errau1 is one
Of Pcace-or, perhaps we should more accu-
ra,cly say. to see whether any termination OF
our National struggle is now attainable. We
lpresume their mission IS not in terms official;
but it were absurd to prctcnd--considcrins who
they are, aud vha; alr their personal relations
to the President--thai il is unauthorized.
While We consider Rchmoad about the least
hopeful point in the Confederacy at which to
seek an acceptable Peace aud regret that the
Mcssrs. Blairs had not proceeded, or offered to
proceed, direct TO Raleigh instead, and while
We can scarcely encourage hopes of any imme-
date paci6cation as a result of this mission, we
yet rejoice that it has departed and arc con-
fident that its influences will be salutary and
its ultimate consequences benefcent. For the
Southern people need, above all things, to be
undeceiyed with regard TO the origin, impulses
and purpose, Of the War for the Union. They
have so long been necessarily told that the
North is fighting for suhjugation-ior unre-
strcted dominion--for spoliatiOD, devastation
and rapnc-that thousands who should know
great deal better actually seem TO believe 1t.
The visit of tie Me,SrS. Bars 70 Rich
mond. and the propositions which they will
there doubtless submit TO the Confederate
chiefs, cannot be kept from the knowledge ofthe
South and cannot fail to he largely influential
in discussing the Southern mind. II IL shall
thence appear tbat The North wants nobody en-
shaved, but everybody liberated, nobody de-
spoiled, but he rights and earnings Of every hui
man being placed under the protection of jus,
aud equal laws, then We say it is scarcely possible
that the fierce maligni;y, the yengeful
hpte, which hne thus far animated the
Rebel masses in their war upon their own
country, can retain their yirulence I'M
modified. And al all events in this mission
the civilized world will see, even though
Dixie should still obstrately bandage its own
eyes, the cgidenc. Of a spirit peryading our
loyal people AID their Government quite
different from thai persistently ascribed to them
10y eronemies. We arc therefore inclined TO
attribute profound significance TO the visit OF
the Messrs. Blairs 10 Richmond, aud to expect
from il benefcent even though not immediate
nor very palpshle results.

sEYMOUR -FENTON.

At noon to-day, Horatio Seymour, IN accord
ance with the popular verdict yaca'es the Of
fee OF Governor of the State of New-fork, and
is succeeded by Reuben +. Fonton. The change
is one eminently fit be made. Messrs. Seymour
and Fenton arc both natives OF our state, OF
New England ancestry, which the rornier has
missed no opportun.y to traduce, while the
latter holds il in honor and will endeavOr 10
honor it By his official career. Each was from
boyhood attached to the Democratic party up to
It's disruption in 1918, when Mr.. Seymour
found his natural afinities in the Hunker or
pro-Slavory, and Mr.. Fcnton followed his into
tho Barnburner or anti-Slsyery Organization.
No doubt this separation vas made in entire
accordance with their respective convictions.
Mr.. Seymour, Graded in aHuence and reared
to careful avoidance Of marSal labor, never yet
intimated, and probably never felt, that it was
wrong for shrcwd, able, intelligent white man
TO coercc by cowhdes, pistols and bloodhounds,
hundred simple, ignorant, stupid negroes into
wearing out their lives in unrecompensed toll IL
his cotton .6elds; Mr.. Fcnton, reared in
humber sphere, and struggling up to position
and consideration against the influences OF pow
orty and Of strongly adverse local ma
jority, would naturally take a different view Of
the case.

We are not aware that he has yet caused impu-

Gen. Butler, of whose conduct no just impeach-

Fcnian Ball.

The Fenian Brotherhood of Columbus will
give their third Annual Ball at Naughton
Hall, on Friday evening, Feb. 18th. The
principles which this organization has
enunciated is sufficient to recommend it to
all lovers of liberty. 1t is no more nor less
than the establishment of Republican
Government on Irish soil; and this they
are pledged to do with cold steel and burn
ished rifles. 1t is no idle boast for the Irish
people to say that they are able to do this /;
because their heroic achievement and un-
daunted bravery on the battle-felds of
America during the present rebellion is
sufficient to demonstrate that they are.
They only lack the means to equip them
selves, and it is for us to help to pro-
vide these means. Rally, then, one and all
irrespective of creed and country--and
prove your love of freedom; help to estab-
lish in the center of Europe power that
will bring terror to the crowned heads of the
,crumbling thrones which surround it. o.
