Political +Piety.

Mr.. Stanton has given up all his public
godliness. The dioinity which Mr.. Sew
ard assigned him was, we presume, that
displayed in his dispatches. These curios-
titles Of piety were, at the, time, very impor-
tant to public morality. The "parsons, !"
haviag;followed in the footsteps Of Brown
low, had all gone into secular affairs and
we should not have had any minister Of
reiieion among us ii II mad notheen for the
spiritual grace. of the. Minisier Of War.
But that gentleman's godliness has been for
some time under a bushel, if, indeed, a
measure Of that denomination be not too
small to contain it. The partyi in poweris,
however, essentially the !" Church party :"
and we are, therefore, glad to see its con-
sistency as such maintained ina dispatch
addressed to Mr., Seward by an enthusiast
tic gentleman in the evangelical regions OF
Oregon. That utterance Of sanctimony
runs thus: ,as74.tt-.sI ts.,g.se,r.

captared and disarmed by the party above
mentioned. Such lighters as were at hand
were immediately taken possession of, and
with them nearly the entire military force at
GAINESVILLE were crossed over in two, sepa.
rate bodies, making in all some 400 men sn
mostly negroes. The garrison Of Bagdad,
containing about lis men, was completely
surprised and captured. The commander
OF the post and the captain 6fthepo were
taken prisoners while in their beds. II is
Fsaid the latter was killed and the former
made his escape. OF the truth Of this there
is some doubt Upon taking possession OF
the town, the work Of pillage and plunder
was Immediately iiiangurated. Every light.
or in the place, some thirty in number, was
taken possession of, und as rapidly as each
warehouse could be, Quilted. its contents
were immediately crossed over to the Anne
