This truth has bus verified in s veil remarkable manner reign , 'in thinublication of "an Address _ ' te ` " . , • throughout the World," in op . - • ~ to the Presidents Proclamation of . ' .... pation. It was published in the , .. . Presbyteri an, of Richmond, of April rad, .. • .pying nearly six columns. It bests - signatures of ninety-six ministers etvrious demominathme, including Meth , edible, Baptists, Episcopalians, Presbyteri al* Ix:theme, German Reformed, &o. The purpose of their appearing thus before the Christian world is to testify of those things "which seem. to be neither under stood nor appreciated by our enemies, nor . yet clearly appreelated by Christians of ' other nitions." The first paints of Abair testimony are that "the Union cannot be restored," and that "the Confederate Government is• a Axed feet." But the main point, and to Which the others were simply introductory, Is the third one, which Is thus givin in the words of the address: . am. recent Proclamation of the Fred . dent of the United States, seeking the emancipation of the Ill&Tall of that South, * in; our judvaent, 1 suitable occasion for edema protest an the part of the people of `God Waggle:4A the 'world." They, of (worse, charge the President with is itesuiing to produce • general slave insurrection, and they clearly indicate the means by which this insurrection is to be * ,inippreised, namely, "the slaughter of tens of thousands of poor, deluded insurrection . Ws," and they do not shrink from con eluding this part of the report with the un mistakable intimation of a wholesale man • "Hake it ileolutely necessary for the path) safety that the slaves be slaughtered, and he who should write the history of that avant would record the dukes' chapter of ; human woo yet written." With these men there appears to be altereathe for the poor thous ands et whom, doubt/ses, they, with their own bands, had disposed the memorials of the dying love of Sim who cams to make his people free—bat slavery br death, bonds or butchery. The: idea that they can be wadi free, that they are entitled te freedom, and that they would accept it with pat!- ende and use it peseefilly, never seems to lave entered their minds.

Sespectltily, E. B. Waite. Thy Rebel Dbpatcb•Bearer. The story-of Gasman S. Dot:mass, son of J. G. Douala:is, of Mason county, AL, who came into our lines on Thursday morning last, bearing a message from Gen. Pr ts.& rox to Gen. JOHNISTO; stJookeon, as given by the correspondent of the Chicago Tri bune, writing from "the rear of Vicksburg, May 81," is full of romance. Young Douokass left home seven yearango ;,went to Texas ; enlisted in the United States' service, u "Ranger ;" Was in the genies at the break ing ont of the rebellion; eabsequently be and his eamridee were peptured while try ing to make their way to the United States. The regulars vex paroled and seat home; but the rangers, being suppoeed to be Tex ans, were cdfered the alternative of joining the rebel earths or—ha Bing. After twen ty-four hours' reflection, he and one tom Bred and fifty others joined a weir, relit meat. After various fortunes, he was sent to Vicksburg in September, 1/362, and has since than been engaged in the scouting 'service. We now give the remainder of the narrative in full: With his `command he went to Grenada, where he joined Van Dorn in his celebrated. raid upon Holly Springe, participating in the fight at Davis' Mills, and afterwards at Middleburg, where he was seriously wound ed. After his return to Grenada, General Pemberton needed the services of a confi dential scout and dispateds-bearerand Doug huts was seleeded. He cads to Vicksburg in FOrtinry, and has remained there ever since. Gen. Pemberton was phut up in Vicks burg and desired to communicate with Gen. Johnston. He looked around for a confi dential agent, and could find none whose fidelity was lees likely to be called into ques tion than young Douglass'. Douglass was willing, and the precious document was committed to his hands. Thil was last Wednesday night,. Dressed in the garb of • citizen, he left Vicksburg at nightfall, and reached the rebel pickets at 9 P. M. Here he remained till daylight, when he was passed out the lines and sent on his perilous mission. Douglass had long en tertained the hope that he might one day free blioself from the rebel service, and join hie friends in Illinois. Here was his golden opportunity, and he did not hesitate eo embrace it. With grist caution, so as to ,deceive his comrades within the fort, he plunged into • dense thicket and sought a deep mine; and whet: well out of range of the rebel *kits, he called to our skit mashers and gave himself up •=prisoner. . CoL ---, of the 8d lowa infantry, turned him over to Aut. laumanrwho, after a lit tle questioning, handed, ides over to Gem. Grant, and to him he revealed his mission, and gave the redoing dispatch. The sub stance of the letter was: An urgent do mead for help. Humber of reinforcements required, 80,000 --advising retreat if he could not bring that number upon Grant!s rear within ten days—fiumber of troops in Vicksburg; 18,000—an hand, thirty days' rations for the garrison, one meal a day— ammunition scarce, particularly gun caps. Bougie's mu further instructed to ascer tain the enact number of Jotiston's army, and report as speedily as possible. -He desired to return home, and Grant sent him up the river on the steamer Sul tana. He says there are'lB,ooo fighting men in Vicksburg, ociontandedby Generals Pemberton,. Stevenson, Reynolds, Bowen, Vornsy,Morris, Leo and H. -L. Smith. Pemberton is chief in command, and ex ceedingly unpopular.: It is surmised that he thinks of surrender.: 'Referring to this, Bowen said .in his (Douglas's') hearing, Mast if Pemberton made the 'first MOTO mut towards' giving up the city, he would Lang him; se high as - ,llanuin." The 'evi dent pulley of Pemberton will be, when he is satisfied, that all hopes of succor, from IJohnson are gone; bruk out through OW lines on the let; and. endeavor to cut his way through , to Big Black. : The damage to :Vicksburg occasioned by r the Are of our guns -end'mortars is im =sass.

The largest megazine,bentainingthree-, quarters of the shot and attain Vicksburg,: is iblown up; horses, Gild. - and mules are killed and a large number of houses are burned. On the day of the assault,, 2,000 were killed and wounded, including eighteen Colonels' and Lieutenant Colonels. The day *after, (Saturday,) Col. T. N. Wall, Cot. Lee Col. Begley, Major Cameron, Adjutant Wil liams, Adjutant Parker, Capt. Hoge and Cspt. Stalit—allofficers of the Texas Legion —were seated abetting pleasantly in the shade st the angle of the fort opposite Lo gan's heavy battery, when a shell from it exploded in their midst and killed them all. Wall and Willis were literally blown in fragments. There. are seven forts [roil - the railroad to Warrenton, of which Douglass coidd re member the names of but three; Fore Pem berton, mounting 9 guns; Fort McCullough, d guns; and Fort Pulaski, 4 guns. Fort Besureard is on the right (our right) of the railroad, and @outline but a single gun not disabled. The cannonade of the 28d disabled 18 guns, and killed and wounded many rebel soldiers. / On the 22d inst., eight Georgia and Ten nessee reghnents refused to fight, and fell back when ordered into the rifle pits. Louisiana, Texas and Missouri soldiers are considered reliable. IN speaking of the proposed nomination of Mr. Ono. W. CAOB, of this city, by the Democratic politicians of Western Penn sylvania, as their candidate for Governor before the State Convention, which meets in Harrisburg, on the 17th inst., the Cin cinnati Commercial remarks, that Mr. Oise, is "supposed to be an available man, as he . is not publicly known to have any opinion since the war commenced, and is as non committal as a clam." If Gen. CAse's well-known caution is prettily enough hit off in the foregoing, as we think it is, what shall we say of the rashness of the Commer cial in what it adds: "It is but reasonable to suppose, however, that he is not in sym pathy and fellowship with the Saone and Huang wing of the party—which is new distinctively appearing as the uncondi tional peaoe element of the one-and-insep arable party I" ANOTHER COTTON LOAN.—It lo stated that Confederate agents in Paris had pro posed a scheme of a second cotton loan for the Confederates, to the extent of fife Mil lions of pounds sterling, but the Messrs.
