1t is learned from an official source
that the English Government is not dis
posed to Interfere with the importation
of cattle from the United States, because
the trade has become 30 extensive. But
should future arrivals prove the exist
ence OF disease among American cattle
as generally prevalent or infectious. the
government will then be compelled to
take precautionary measures.

FITZ JOHN PORTER'S CASE.
Report of the Military Board of Inquiry
Gen. r Orter ExOnerated.

WASHINGTON, April 3.-The report in the flz
John Forter case is very long, The board OF omeeis
find from every view of The subject examined IN the
light of facts fully established by undsputed testt-
mony that they all lead to one and the same concu-
zion il respect to Gen Porter. The board nave ex-
posed Gen. Porers conduct to the test OF tue hgness
degree of responsibility recognized by military prn-
cpes, and have viewed the whole subject under this
exposition. The report gives long narrative of the
events which gave rise to the charges against Gen
Porter, Concerning the charge of which he was
found suilty. in not having moved his command on
the NIGHT of August 81. 1862 in obedience to an
der from Gen. Pope, the board report that it was
manifest oh ysical impossbity TO march over that
road that night; that nothing would have been gain
ed by the attempt, and that it would have been
wiser if Gen. Porter had delayed the attempt still
longer than he did: that he exercised the ordinary
discretion of corps commander and that it was his
plain duty to exercise it. The report concludes
follows: Gen. Porter was in effect condemned for
not having taken any part in his own battle.
Such was the error upon which General Por-
Ter was pronounced guilty of the most shameful
crime known among soldiers.
We believe not one among all the gallant soldiers
on that bloody field was less deserving Of such con-
domination than he. The evidence OF bad animus IN
Porers ceases to be material in view OF the ev-
idence of his soldierly and faithful conduct But it
| is our duty to say that the indscreet and unkind
terms in which General Porter expressed his dstrust
of the capacity of his superior commander cannot be
defended, and to that ndiscretion was due in very
great the Misrepresentation of both his mo-
tive and his conduct and his consequent condemna-
tion Having thus given the reasons for our conclu-
sions have the honor to report in accordance with
the Presidents order, that in opinion justice re-
quires his hands such action may be necessary
to annul and set aside the findings and sentence Of
the court martial in the case of Major General Fnz
John Porter, and to restore him to the position oil
which that sentence deprived him. such restoration
to take effect from the date OF his dismissal from the
| service.

M,.s;.o,nui political Literature.

LEADING editorial of the Okolona, Mississippi South
ern States Democratic), March 26
o, how fit-how passing fit it was that the
Radical party should breathe final hiss at our
Confederate President as its dying carcass was
born from the Senate Chamber of the States
Union!
Hating all that is good and pure and grand
and true, 1t was peculiarly proper that it should
hate Jefferson Davis with deathless hate.
LIS history was one long lie and crime.
IL flung our country into war.
1t murdered 100000 gallant Southrons, like
the common cut-throat that it was.
IL gave our homes to the torch, like the COM
mon incendiary that it was.
1t p,uudered our pockets and Golfers, like the
common thief that it was.
1t sent its jsi-birds to lord over Us, and inn
prisoned the purest patriots of the North, like
the common ty rant that it was.
1t corrupted whole generation, like the
common pimp that it was.
Finally, with bloody hands and pockets bulg.
ing with stolen moneys, it fell before the wrath
OF an indignant and outraged peoplehood..
Bot its malignant spirit was strong in death,
and while the rattle was sounding 10 its Shiny
throat 1t managed to utter farewell hiss at our
illustrious chieftain.
