There might be some excuse for tUit
outrage of individuals and conttitutional
lights, If the Admin'.tlration would tlo
ttop papers whoe cditort admit that they
have labored for twenty years for a aisso
lution of this Uniin, and have for year
kept such sontiinents as the following,
standing at tbo had of theii columns:
"TUB UMTRI) BTATE8 CONSTITL'TION
18 A COVENANT WITH DKATII, AND AN
AOMiKM liNT WITH HICLL."
"NO UNION WIT U SLAVEHOLDERS."
The editor of (his Abolition sheet used
the following emphatic sentance but a
fe-.v weeks ago, in refferenoe to the Con
stitution ;
"Ai laft.iudi-mont bat been laid to the line, and
rightcomiieM tu the plummet; the hill bas swept
away tiie rorugo or lies, tae water oreruiw me
hidins pltice ; the covenant with death is tnnnll
ed, and the agreement with betl no lonor
stands. Tbo Union of 1781 is piradiously
overthrown by the very rlasewbioh fmhioned it
at the beginning, eud wliicu uoui now n.is eon
trullud Its adminiitratiun."
If this is not treason, what Is treason?
Dot it has been oll said that "truth
crushed to ea-th will rise again," and this
is the only redeeming feature that sosrs

Capt, F. G. Young, of New York, aid to
Col. Baker, and who wat with him when
he died, gives tho following account of
the recent engagement near Edward's
Ferry .-
Gen. fitone ordered Col. Baker on Bur-
day evening, to have hit brigade ready to
move at 7 o'clock on Monday morning.
Tho brigade wm then ttatioued five miles
from Conrad'. Ferry. At 3 o'clock in
rhe norning, however, a Mesfenjer from
Gen. Stone ordered the first battalion, un
der I lout. Col. W'istar, to movo immedi
ately, so as to bo at Conrad's Ferry at
sunrise, which they did, and reported
themselves to Gon. Stone.
Orders were then tent from Qjn. .Stone
to .ha battalion to .tind fait until they
thould hoar hoavy firing in front, and
then to cross. About an hour afterwards,
munketry havirg been heard previou-ly,
daad and wounded began to bu brougut
over H where we were. At 10 o'clock
tho numbor of killed and wounded bro'l
in wat increu e l. Goner! Sione or
dered Col. Uaker to lake command of the
forcet on both tide, of the river at that
plac. ard to bring tip kit brigade and the
Tammany regiment, ammanded by ol.
Coggaweil. which wat in camp about three
miles distant, and to orott in.nieaitiieiy.
Capt. Young carried the ordert to the
lam many Regimen'., ana the wnoie torce
proceeded aoout a mile Jown rivor, reaay
lo cross. W found two scows, each of
whioh eoild carry from forty to fifty men.
and mar aged to gel from the canal a dug
out, which would take tuly or seventy
more.
Six oompnit of lb firtt battalion of
iht California Regiment, three pieovt of
srtillvrv, with men tnd horses, belonging
to tho Tafiimany Regiment, with Col, Ma
ker, Col. Ccggswell. Lieut. Col. Wistar,
Assistant Adj Gn. Harvey, and dipt am
Young, got to the island, where wo ware
joined by a battery of the 2i R'.-.ods In
land Artillery wuh two small howitier.
The paxsage to the Inland was very diffi
cult, with our insufficient means of trans
portation, the dittance being a quarter ol
a mile and the current swift.
We poled ourselves tip t je eastern
shore a long distance, thence were drifted
down to ti e binding. From the Isluni'
to the Virginia shore, our only mean of
transportation was one scow and a metal
ic boat ot little or no service. We landed
under a steep bvjk, 100 foot high, covered
with rocks and jungle
Scrambling up ths bank, we found an
open fiiol 1 ot six acret. with thick wood
ou three sices, out of which came a con
stant, irregular firing from the enemy.
Here were Col. Devin'a Fifteenth Mas-
sachnnuiis Regiment on the right line at
the head of the wnodi, having been driven
in a.ter proceeding a mile ard a half to
wards Luesborg. e formed on the left.
and presently advanced two companies ol
skirmislicrt to the woods in front. The
concealed enemy drove tli?in back with u
heavr, telling volley, and followed the
regular with an irregular firing. Our men
fell on their faoes under tho brow of the
hill, the enemy not being in aixl t. The
artillery could not be servod because the
g:nner a-ere not to be found.
