leaders, yet w? have no positive news of tho
(act. The only authority for such a st:ifi
nx-nt U found in a minor transmitted by a
XUM flag of trucft to an olllcrrof exiih-ui-'o
in Charleston Harbor. Wo hue, however,
Indubitable evidence that General Siibrman
has captured Fort McAllister on the Ogarher',
In Georgia, the main defouso of that rivr, ami
one of tho principal dof'nses to tha city of
Savannah.
This fort is sitiatcd at a point llfteon milt-i
southwest of Sitvanuith, and wlirrc the Savan
nah and Mobile IUilroad crosses the river. It
is fix miles from Oswibaw sound, and its
reduction enables General Siiiiiimax to ot
L'tin all the supplies for his army of which he
nay soon be In need. The Rebels say that the
garrison of the fort consisted of about one
hundred and fitly men. Tli's Is evidently
falae, as upon the occasiou Of a previous bj:n
burtlmout by our Uon-clads its full comple
inent was one thousand. The fall of this fort
renders our success at Savannah certa'n.
Whethw that city has fallen yet, or not, the
result In thnt region will be none the less
gh-rious to our cause.
Thomas. Further det:iil of I! -uer.il
ThomaV victory before Xnshvllle gro.itly
increase its hnportancc. Our army ii-em-i to
have been Buc.i-st.ful at all points, although tlij
battle was severe and terrible. Tlie navy, too,
played a successful part on the riuht, in the
Cumberland. During the night of the 15th,
General Ilonii, finding biinself terribly defeat
ed, fell back aa rapidly as possible ; and on the
morning of the Iflth General Thomas ordered
an advance of bis whole line, pressing the
enemy closely, and capturing many gun and
prisoners iu the pursuit. A. distinguished
general ofilcer telegraphs that our suesoss has
been most complete and satisfactory, and the
probabilities of the total destruction of Gene
ral Hooi'a army are greatly strengthened.
We may iiow hope that a most decisive vic
tory will soon bless our arms in Middle Ten-net-see.
StonI' MAN. Whll-t we liavo had nnmerous
reports of the advance of the 15ebelGener.il
liitw KirniiDOE west, as if to join Qeiier.il
Hood, nothing has been said of counWr-'.nove-mentson
the part of Union troops. The Kebcls,
this morning, give us evidence of a most lmport
nit movement ofa portion of General Stone
si At ' Cavalry, which, crossing the IIojton
truck the Virginia and East Tennessee
Uailroad, captured a locomotive auda train of
cars, destroyed a bridge, nnd tflovod towards
StvltvUlu.
This U a very important town in Southwest
em Virginia. The ItVbi-ls can see that it ins
been captured, and that a sin dl body of
cavalry has succeeded iu destroying the va.t
alt works of that reglou and in performing a
great work one which General Bliiuiiidgu
failed to do last eurainor, with a considerable
army.
Cawiiv. From the Department of the Weit
Mississippi we havo details ofa successful ex
pedrtion sent out from Vieksburg to Jackson.
til Mississippi, to destroy General Hood's rail
road communications throughout tU.it region,
The work was admirably executed, and G..n
ral Hood was cut otf from immense aiiwiirs
of stores collected for his army at J.n-k-.i,
Tie railroad was lorn up, and tin- eapt i:v
undo wero very extensive.
I.ATK1I Lvrr.l.LlOrAci:. hillee Wlit'illL' tin
aliove, we have received an olhVi.il wu
gawtte, whicli eovevs desputi-lies from Gen-ial
Thomas, giving full detail of his glorious
tory. The defeat of the Hebels under 'iener il
Hor has been turned Into a rout, .aid a
are glad ko annoiiuee that ieneil Tii-'M '
pioverl l:rf modesty has cim-ed him in previous
.li-i-tiatches to underrate his rmeees. The lo-s
in VwM oflleers has been heavy, and the
battle-field was strewn with the arms aban
doned by the retreating hie.
At the battle of l-'r.uikliu the following
Itolel oUicers were kill d nd wotuidel:
M-ifor General Patwck 15. Clkiii iini-.,

On principle, we cannot object to the utter
ance of Mr. llnooK In the House of Repre
sentative. Unless It ran be Justly ascribed
to an Improper motive, there can be no obee
tlon to the expression f his opinion. Mr.
Ubookh'h motive may not have been proper,
but we will not Impugn it. Why should we ?
Are not history and reason equally open to us?
We are at issue with Mr. IIkooks In the
very first points which ho made. He said or
the President's Messago. that It ravitalued two
startling points: "The first, that tin war
must go on without attempting any negotia
tions, and the second, that It must be prose
cuted until sl ivery was universally abolished."
Speaking of Davis, the President sail:
"He would accept nothing short of aseveranee
ofthe Union prei-Uely what we wl'l not an 1
cannot give.'' Mr. Brooks has no reason to
doubt that Davis would accept nthin?
less. Has Davis not repeatedly said so? Mr.
Hiiooks would not wish negotiations to tend
towards any other solution than the Integrity
of these United States. Feeling satisfied of
tlio fact that Davis will not listen to any
thing less than independence, what folly it is,
then, to talk about negotiation l Ajiln:--Did
the President mean that th"w.r"mnt
be prosecuted until slavery Is universally aV)l
ished" when he wrote : "I shall not attu npt
to retract or modify the E nancip itiou Pro
clamation, nor shall I return to slavery n:iy
person who Is free by the terms of that pro
clamation, or by any of the acti of Ciinress" ?
We sonfess that to us this ooae :i aee
asserted is a non scjuitur.
When Mr. Bhooks applies the lesions of
history to his own country, it is just as noeos
sary tor him to know that history as tlio one
with which he Institutes the comparison.
There Is no parallelism between the rebel
lion of the colonies against tlio mrtlier-c un
try, and the rebellion of the South against the
United States, except that, in the one case as
In the Other, war is an Inevitable condition of
rebellion. But admit for a moment that there
Is parallelism between the two cises. .Lord
Chatham, Fox, and Buiikk, opposed the
course of England towards the colonies, be
cause Viey deemed England unjust and the
colonies aggrieved. Was it so in the differ
ence between this Government and the South ?
In 1775. before the Revolution broke out
into actual hostilities, Lord Cu ATitAH said:
"The Americans, soro under injuries, and Irri
tated by wrongs, stript of their inborn rights
and denrest privileges, have resisted oppres
sion, and entered into confederacies." The
remonstrating colonies do not greatly rese n
blc the truculent South. Eighteen lords ca
tered their protest against the measures of
the ministry. They said : " We therefore pro
test against an address amounting to a dr.-
duration of war." Was our Government
guilty of such a course as to warrant a simil ir
protest? Fox, according to Hume, said:
"It would create tlio Rebellion, which now,
without grounds, was declared to oxisU"
Speaking of certain coercive measures, Hitmk
said: "Thus we provoked rebellion by ona
set of unjust acts, and recruited t!ia rebulliou
army by another." Bukkk said: "I do not
examine the abstract question of right; I do
not Inquire whether you have a right to ren
der your peoplo miserable ; but whether it Is
not your interest to make them happy."
Yet, alter declaring that iiyustico had been
exercised towards the Americans, what does
Lord Chatham do when a proposition arisas
for acknowledging their independence? An
Invalid, leaning on tlio arm of his son, he gm-J
to the House of Lords, and with Are In his
eye, speaks : "My lord," says he, 'Irej iies
that the grave has not closed upon me ; tint I
am still alive to lift up my voice against the
dismemberment of this auclent and liable
monarchy."
Perhaps the advice of Fox was host of all
Shortly before this dying cffjrt of the Earl of
Chatham, he said: "The, great question ron
c rning the propriety of perseverance In the
American war depends on the experience
which we already possess, and a calculation of
the means which remain to the nation for the
attainment of this favorite object."
In this, we see nothing that resembles the
question Involved lu the present cunteU
nothing but a claim In both cases, nothing
but wv 1 both. The grand difference is,
that Iu the one, ease, it was an unjust claim,
'and in the other, It is a just one. In the, ca3
of England, wo see some great unit dipre-
cating an unjust war, ami wlian embarked
in it, ready to do at uny tiin-i the justice which
they ac knowledged from the very first, but
not willing far from It: to oeknowledr,
the independence even of an Injured peoplo
The South was the aggresor against this
Government, and we cannot, we dare not
knowledge its independence until it were folly
to deny it. If we cannot acknowledge Its
independence, wo cannot treat, f r that net
ltni'If is acknowledgment.
Looking at the subject from a purely m ite
rial point of view, let us say witlj Fox, "have
we got the means" to put down this 1 .hel
lion? In the name of the American p.'r;d
we answer, yes ample:
now vain is delving Iu the pa-d for the
swaddling clothes of authtutty! Mr. Buooks
tukes us back to tho Infancy of the
world. With thousands of years more ex
perlcuce, why should we go to school with Mr.
Biioons in Greece and Rome?' If men are
ulwavs to do what tho llr.t civilized people
did, what is the use of our day a'ld gen era
tioir.' Men chance with greater light. Did
Chatham live, he might bea Hiiooks.
