It eternauy damns the politicians who brought it about. 'FITT- inky thrive for a little while, but their triumphs'wlll trs sit ot t. lived. As to the nonsense about making this a war to abolish slavery, the effect of a. war in this country (the South) is to that end. We can't afford to let the rebels have three millions. of hands to build' their forts, and raise their corn and ftour,•repkir " railroads, run - , their shops,. etc; Immense It would be suicidal for us to do so; i r e . should be, great joolemot to make use of theproperty of rebels in any way that would do us the' most good, and the rebels the most barn). The niggers that they have used against us were just as good as Bo many white men to them. They performed the work that number of white men would have had to do. The result is that they haebeen worth- to the South. about 600,000 solciers. The "United States -have have been-prevented, for one year past, from crushing this rebellion because the South has had sittlinia.- tired thousand more 'Bi : diners to send tee'the,ili324re leaving negioes to perform work at home .Whicst would have been compelled todo but for the-r(elmese• I may safely say that there is no general of any tialion, who would not try to".deprfeeire is enemy, of such a vast army. and 'thus save .thiiii a; sands of his own men and millions, of- the mbileic-OE" . his Government. - Now, what lools people-aseAelmr.. grumble.at taxes and the length, of the tvare - iiii4ftat' tha same: time curse the Goveinment because. its policy is to save both taxes and its own.nieli. using the same weapons that the •eneiny have uaiad. against us !

Th a deluded men' who ,uot....read 'and think for theme': uswoifme oneve - toe - misrepresentations of such traitors as Vallandigham and Pugh, actually accept.this as truth. In a speech delivered by Mr. D Erough,'lm,. : ayton, on the 4th ult., the following passage occeiired - .• 'But you want peace. SOU° -I. ' Will any man tell me how you are going to get itl [A.

Brough—"Why didn't you take it down Charlestorti [Applause and laughter.] But what is the Crittenden Comprombiel , What is it but bringing slavery throughout the whole country? They bad the po.wer to pass the Crittenden Compro mise in Congress, if they had stood and fought for' it. The Peace Congress offered 'it; but refused it; I tell you, they would not take the Crittenden Compromise to.day, and if you argue thus, you are keeping the word of promise to the ear, but break ing it to the hope.' " Now let us see how Mr. Pugh disposes of this. In a speech he delivered in Washington, Ohio, on the 25th ult,,, be said: - " I was once a' strong friend of the doctrine of Popular Sovereignty. Mr. Douglas leading; off 3n that great principle, was sustained by the whole of the Democratic party. He proposed, for the sake of the TJnion, to give up that favorite idea, and the whole Democratic party abandoned it for the pur pose of introducing into the Constitution the Crit tenden Compromise. With readiness the Democracy rallicd to the suppbrt at that critical hour!' Who defeated it? Dlr. Brough says it was de feated by the Senators from the Cotton States. I would not say that Kr. Brough designed to misre present this case. He undoubtedly took the facts at second hand. He is, doubtless, unintentionally mistaken. - • . " I was in Congress at the time, and I do know that the only difficulty was that the Repuhlicans would not support it. Not a single Republican voted for it in the Senate ; and on, the other hand, it cannot be shown that a single Secessionist voted against U.> , It is humiliating to _ see men like Mr. Pugh, for the sake of Carrying a point in the cause of treason, seek to mislead and deceive theip OAC:by resorting to such contemptible subterfugeVthia. Now, what are the facts in this ciiire . T : i reply to the charge of Mr. Brough, that the Senators of the Cotton States are responsible for the defeat of the Crittemien Compromise, Mr. Pugh says; "Not so. The Republi eine :ire responsible for its defeat. They voted against it; and, on the other han'd, it cannot be shown that . a single Secessionistmote4 against 'll.' l No, of course not, Mr. Pugh; but, on the " other hand," can it not be shown that while the advocates of the Crittenden Compromise had. a majority in Senate, and could have passed it without the votes of t - Republicans, it, was defeated because six Senators fro the Cotton States sat in their seats while the ballot was taken, and refused to vote? See Congressional. Globe, 2d session, 36th Congress, part 1, page 409. The call of the yea. and nays just before thevote on substituting the Clark amend ment for the Crittenden Comprondse showed the Republican vote to be 26, and the Opposition vote 30. Thus indicating a majority office for the Opposition. Immediately after, the vote on the Clark proposi tion stood, yeas 25, nays 23. Six Senators from Cotton States sat in their seats and refused to vote, viz: Benjamin, or Louisiana; Hemphill and Wig ton, of Texas; Iverson, of Georgia; Johnson, of Arkansas ; and Slidell, of Louisiana. The advocates and apologists of treason in Ohio must be driven to close quarters, when they find it necessary to distort the authentic record of Con gress, as 'Mr. Pugh has done idthis case. HON. JOHN SHERMAN ON ,VALL AN- DIGRADI At a Union meeting held in Delaware Ohio, on. the 28th ult., Hon. John Sherman delivered one of the ablest speeches of his life. His review of Val landighim,e course in Congress is so searching-and overwhelming, that I cannot resist sendißg it to The Press. Truly, Sherman•lifts the cloak from the trat: tor, and leaves exposed to the indignant gaze of all true Union men the ghastly hypocritical grin of trea son,in all its corruption and deformity, VALL ANDIGHA AI IN.CONGRESS I have thus far only attended to the acts of Mr. Yallandighant for which he was arrested by Gea. Burnside, becanse this arrest undoubtedly induced this nomination. The leaders in this movement never would have ventured upon it, but that they hoped to conceal his infamous record under a clamor about illegal arrests. They knew the sensitive jealousy of our people for the personatright's of the citizens, and, under a pretenee that these rights are in danger, they hope to conceal the political opinions of Mr. Yallandigh aM. 4 . served as a member of Con gress with him during his entire term. He was the intimate friend and associate, personal and political, of the leaders of this rebellion. You will look in vain for any word from him of reproof, discourage ment, or dissent to any act of theirs in the progress of this rebellion. He defended all the intrigues in Kansas. The reputed invasion by armed Missouri mobs—the frauds, violence, murder, and crime with' which these same rebels-sought to overcome free -men in Kansas—the infamous laws of a bogus legislature—the attempt to establish a pro:slavery Constitution by election frauds—all these acts were defended and excused by him. He applauded and joined in the many, threats of disunion uttered in both Houses. of Congress before Mr. Lincoln was elected. ' During the memorable session that fol lowed Mr. Lincoln's election, and when these rebels, encouraged by the imbecility of Mr. Buchanan, were iieizing forts, armories, custom•houses,y killing and robbing our citizens, Mr. Vallandigharn defended and excused them. He was with them in consulta tion, co-operated with them, was a party to all their plans, and encouraged them more than any other Northern man in acts of open war.

She.had a brass cannon, and Captain Hagen, not liking her appearance, did not wait for the boat. Her subsequent movements showed she was not bound to Buenos Ayres, as she was steering in a„northwesterly 'direction before the. wind. At the time there were three.sail in company:, The Conrad was at Buenos Ayres May 24, loading for New Yolk, and when her movements were re ,- - ported we remarked that in all probability she had been captured and converted into a privateer.

[From the Steele In Anierica the success of the Federals does not diminish; but the slavery party, reduced to the direst extremity, has made a !net desperate effort in New York itself. A fortnight ago the Courrier des Etats Tiflis announced the existence of a conspiracy in which it, did not believe. The conspiracy has just broken out. Thee conscription served as a pretext ; but the significance of• the movement is indicated by the atrocities committed , upon- the blacks. AU of them whom the rioters Met were massacred ; houses belonging to negroes were burnt. Evident/y it is not by assassinating poor inoffensive victims, or by pillaging the office of an Abolitionist newspaper, that peopleprotest against the conScriptioß.

They have occupied Morrie Island, and have caused considerable loss to the Confederates, who tried to prevent their landing. In Tennessee; Roaecrans has taken four thousand prisoners. In New York very serious : disturbances have occurred. These ban'cea,Tor which- the conecription has served as a pretext, appear to have been caused . by the parti sens of slavery. We seethe proof of this in the excesses which the rioters committed. against the, blacks - especially,— [From the Debate] would General .Lee fight a second battle on the north of the Potomac? Could Port Hudson hold out afterthe fall of. Vicksburg? , ..We inclined to the be lief that the future of America depended upon the reply given by events to these two questions. Events have replied. Port Hudson (it is the Richmond En• quirer, at all events, which announces it) surrendered on the 91h of July to; the. Federals, and the entire course of the Missiesippi is now restored to the legiti mate authority of the United-States. A few days afterward General -Lee • recrossed the Potomac, so ,that th e.Statee faithful to - the Union are delivered from invasion, : Washington breathes again, and Richmond is once more threatened.

Brigandage is, in short, ragtag • in some provinces; as might be expected at this sea son, but it is a healthy sign that the rich proprieters in Calabila are forming volunteer bands to put down the miscreants.' One good result`of their efforts has bean the capture of a ferocious chief called.Franceseo di Ceretnla. The Government, too, which has hither to been backward in permitting the formation of vo lunteers, has lately assented to the enrolment of men under a Garibaldian officer. Last week a well known chic], ealled Piccizelli, was arrested in the To ledo, He had dome from Rome, and with singular au deeps', was walking coolly in the most public streets , of Naples. A remarkable fact occurred here a few dais since, which shows how necessary , it is that the shoolmaster should• be abroad. A boy, nine years of age, the son , of a father bimeelf not noted for observing any great difference between mum and tuvm, took' to petty theft. The habit became so bad that the pious • father applied to his confes sor for counsel. Hold out the menace that you will burn his hands after the next offence,' said the priest. The father, impatient to try the experi- - ment, rushed heme, seized his son, and, tying both his tends, thrust them into the fire. The screams of - the bey were heard by the neighbors, who ran to the' rescue, when the father alleged he was obeying his confessor ; and the latter excuses himself - by saying 'that he ordered the menace of burning. Such is a specimen of= many of the spiritu al guides of the south, and, if hands may be burned,. why'not lands and houses, and why may not cattle and human beings be elanghteredl The principle is the same, These are all remedies for-great of fences, and there are men ready enough so to counsel, and to IVO* the cOuneel.

DISCOVERY OF THE SOURCES OP 'TH2 ' , TILE.— Captains Speke and Grant will not. it appears, be allowed to wear in peace the laurels Which they have won with so much bravery and ektli. Another claimant is in the field. Signor gland, a Venitian, declares in letters recently publined here that he feels himself 'obliged -to destroy the' happy illusion 'into which Captains Speke and Grant' lieree fallen in supposing that they made the great diacteVety of the sources of the Nile, against which, sayer:his gentle-. man, "I protest -solemnly before all the Stem' Miami is certainly deserving of some' ceedit. He enjoys the confidence of the Viceroy, and under the auspices:of his late Hiehness Said Pacha, took an expedition in 1860 -for the'purpose of dec4-, ding this much-vexed problem. In 1861 he published' R map of his journey, which, he says, "if Captains Speke and Grant possessed they would not have 'Wren altogether a different river for the true Nile, telfich, unfortunately, they did not see." Signor , Miami, with the concurrence of- the ; Viceroy, pro , ceeds by next mail to London, in order to discuss the • qiiei3tion with Oapts.

PARIS A SEAPORT.—The design of making Paris a seaport has been repeatedly entertained for more than two centuries past. It was first proposed in the time of Louis XIV., and Colbert had surveys made to ascertain whether the. Seine could be made navigable for seergoingsvessels. The engineers of that time, with Vauban - at• their head, decided that it was impossible to obtain a sufficient depth of water in the Seine, butTetliet:a direct communica tion with the sea might' be established by means of a canal from. Dieppe. The state of the publia finances, however, did not then admit of under taking so expensive an enterprise. This scheme was again revived by the Marquis de Crecy in 1779, and in the following year the Government autho rized the project, but nothing was done for want of funds. 'When Napoleon became Emperor, the project of making Paris a seaport was submitted to him, and he remarked that if the canalization of the Seine could be realized, "Peri% Rouen, and Havre Yeauld - beceme one city, with the river for its prin cipal street." Political events, however, prevented the execution of the design' and nothing more was • heard of it till the reign of Charles X., when a com pany was formed with , a capital of 200,000,000 f. for making Paris a seaport by the canalization of the river. The course of events, however, again hin , dered the realization of _the scheme. It now pro - posed to make a canal from Dieppe, passing along the valley of the Bethune, by ht. Aubin, Data pierre, and Neufchatel, thence to the valley of the Therein, passing south of Beauvais through the marshes of Bruneval to the Oise, and by Ile Adam, St. Denis, and St. Ouen, to the fortifications near Nuilly, where it is proposed to form a port for mer chant vessels, front which a canal, is to be made to the Terries, in order to diminish land carriage as far as possible. • Miss M. E. BRADDON AdID THE YORKSHIRE PUBLISHER.—At the Hull Bankruptcy Court, a booksellteand publisher named Charles Robinson Empeon, formerly of Beverley, and now of Hull, ap plied for his discharge from custody; The bank• rupt's debts amount to £26 183. 74 z d., and in the course of his examination it transpired that, in the yearjB6o, he engaged Miss M. E. Braddon, the popu larrirthoress of "Lady Audley's Secret," and Aurdra.Flold," to write a novel for him, to be entitled:. "Three Times Dead, or: the Secret of the Heath.". Miss Braddon was at this time an actress at the Queen's Theatre, Hull, and played under the Dame of Miss . Seyton. She wrote the introductions to the. pantomimes, and seteral odes which were delivered . :on- public occa sion's?V4is brought her into notice, and while she, walataydrigtat Beverly . Park she published occa sional-toms, which , induced Mr. , Empson, the bank rupt, to enter into engagement with her to write him a novel. "Three Thnkes Dead," was Miss Bred don's first "great littrary" effort," and , although it was highly' Semnitional, and'above £2OO was expend ed in getting it out, the work proved a failure, and to this cause MeEmpsOn partly attributed his bank ruptcy. - Since 1860 Miss Braddon has been in London, and what success her literary efforts have achieved is matter of public notoriety. Mr. Judge Raines said that if Miss Braddon had made £6,000 out of her works she could surely afford to assist the man who published her first work, `end who had - become bankrupt partly through doing so. Mr. Empson said he .had not the slightest expects= tionsfrorn Miss Biaddon. The cause of the failure of " Three Times Dead" was that London publishers invariably attempted, to orirsh works published in the provinces. There being no opposition to the bankrupt, he was allowed'to pass his examination, and an order Of discharge was granted. ' • Dr.'Livingstone 7 s African Expedition. EPPEOTS OP THE SLAVE TRADE---A PANIC, DROI7GHT, AND RAMINE--THOITSANDS OR LIMBS LOST The London. Times publishes the following extract of a letter from Dr. Livingstone, dated River Shire, February 20;1863, giving the iatest news of 'his ex:- pedition : • "'Of late affairs have taken an entirely new phase, or rather we have hid our eyes opened to see that the old syetem, which has kept this region 'shut up from all good influences, is still in operation, and quite capable .of, rendering all our labor of no avail. The -slave-hunting system has come across our, path, and has nearly quite depopu lated the , valley of the Lower Shire. You may have .heard that certain slave-dealers came along Dr. Kirk% path from Tette to this river—in stigated One tribe against another, and were paid in captives,lome of whom we liberated. The captives escaped us are separated at Tette, the men retained and the women and children Bent up the Zambesi to buy ivory. A panic seized the population of a large district - above the Cataracts. They lied to the Shire, leaving their fine gardens and grain behind them a drought and famine followed—thousands perished. and still die off daily: We counted thirty-two dead bodieilloating down as we steamed up, and these are nothing to those who perish in the villages and lie unburied; or those that pass by at. night or are devoured by' alligators. Well, further down-the ri mer, in 1 he country around Mount Clarendon, a half cute marauder, called ,Marianno, has devastated and depopuildra with, it is ward, etbOlAt Athourgngeauletl THREE CENTS. slaves ; and where last year we could purchase any amount of fresh provisions and cotton at the" cheap• est ra'e—Captain Wilson, of H. M. S. Gorgon, thought that a hundred tone of cotton could be col lected from that valley and the hills - adjacent—we saw not a single village, only here and there a few miserable vvretches striving to keep soul and body together by fishing and collecting ; the seeds of grasses. Our labor is very , much increased by this de population: inasmuch as we must go at least three hundred miles for all the food our native laborers reonire. "-Another man, called Belshore, made slave forays west of the Shire; and so does another,, named Mello; and another called Joie St. Anna, higher up the Zambesi ; and several parties of slave•hunters are nut south of Senna ; any one with a few guns and slaves may do the same. No notice is taken of it by the authorities till, the culprit is rich enough to stand a squeeze. He .may then he imprisoned. It would he uncharitable .t 0 say that there is any mulcting ; hut he is released, and at liberty, after a short confinement, to begin , again.

The answer is, that the Secretary of the Treasury has decided that these bonds are considered as be longing to the "permanent loan,” which Will be re. deem din gold. If our space permitted, we might reprint i letter on this subject, addressed to S. H. Walley, Esq., President of the ii.evere Bank, Bos ton, stating this decision. We clip the following from the Boston Commercial Bulletin: As Mexico, by reason of the recent" French' com plications, is attracting more than-ordinary notice, especially in this country, the following information respecting its products, &c., may be interesting:, AGIIICIILTURAL PRODUCTS.—The cotton plant is indigenous to the soil. The MeXicans, at the time of the Spanish invasion under Cortez, possessed the art of spinning cotton to 'a very high degree of fine ness, and of imparting to it beautiful and brilliant colors—arts which have since been lost—and cotton fabrics then formed almost the only Sabi* . for cloth ing. The average yield in late years has been set down at seven millions of pounds ; and, of course, under an improved system of society, that product is capable of an indefinite expansion. The other principal agricultural products . are cof fee , tobacco, indigo, vanilla, jalap, cochineal, flax, and hemp. The export of cochineal amounts to a million of dollars annually. There is also ' large export of dyewoods, vanilla, indigo, and pollee, and even - some manufactured linen,- cotton, and woolen goods have entered into the export list. Tom PRECIoIIS MICTALS.—That for which Mexico is chiefly .prize,d is her. vast mineral wealth. There are said to be over one thousand silver mines in Mexico, yielding an annual product of between thirty-five and forty millions of, dollars. There are, besides, twenty.five mines of quick silver, which yield from two hundred and fifty to three hundred thousand pounds weight annually. Gold is also found in considerable quantities, stated" variously at from three millions of dollars up wards. _A British authority sets it down at thirty-two million five hundred- thousand ; but that -is evidently a mistake. The mines are gene. rally located either on the top or on the western slope of the Cordilleras. They were wrought for ages before the Spanish invasion. Gold and. silver vases of great value and beauty of •workmanship were sent back to Spain by the first conquerors as spoils of war. Iron and copper are also produced , in great abundance. The great drawbabk to all this mineral wealth, however, is the difficulty of 'trans porting it to the [seaboard, ther ebeing neither rail roads nor navigable rivers in the country, and the only means of transportation being the backs of mules. Under a stable government this obstacle might soon be lessened, red probably one of the earliest enterprises that will be set on foot under the new regime Will be connected with- facilitating the forwarding of the precious metals to. the sea board. MA3rorAarunEs.—Before the late years of inter nal war and anarchy there was considerable manu facturing enterprise exhibited in Mexico. There were seventy-two large cotton factories at work, six large woolen ones, eight paper , mills, iour glass factories, and seventy band machines for weaving -silk, the total annual value of manufactured goods amounting to over one hundred millions of dollars. This' industry, we presume,: has been largely de stroyed by the partisan warfare which has torn the country in pieces for the last ten years. Since then no statistics have been published. The Connecticut river railroad , bridge over. the Deerfield river, which was burned July 17th, was Intifeet long, very high above tlie water, and one Of the.inoit costly ~bilges on tb,o toted i toving orktud„ ly cost about $75,000 ; but as the piers remain stand. bribe loss will not exceed $20,000, of which $15.000 is covered by insurance in the Fire and blarineoftive in Springfield, and the Hartford office at Hartford. The New York Evening Post of to-day says: The bank statement to•day shows an :inerease loans of $351.245, and in circulation of 0,572 ; while there is a decreate in specie of $690,13a, and in de. posits of $5,805,030.- The only point of interest in this reportictlie•.de. dine of eight millions in the deposits during theipaiet two weeks. The totalamount %lower than)fei:hia been for a long time past. Among the causerof tiko severe drain a prominent place is due to the4l4V.eef. ments in Government and other lucrative iieciesis. The loan market is amply supplied with>eapital, and as but little mercantile business is doing, the ao cumulating wealth of the community cannot be ab. ,serhed, and lenders ale often glad to offer their money to first-class brokers at 5 per cent. on good securities, with fair margin. Six per cent. Is, hoW ever, still the , asking rate, and is readily paid by '"borrowers "who do not wish their loans to be dia.:: turbed. . - The stock market - brat-tong, for as money is easy, speculation is active, and the buyers exceed the gel.. lers. Prices have consequently, advanced, in spite of the hot weather and the consequent absence from the city of some of the heaviest operators. Governments are steady ; railroad bonds active; hank shares firm ; Border-State bonds strong, and railroad shares active.
