I have had the honor of meeting a lady who has just arrived from Elizabeth City, and the story of her wanderings is full of interest As her naive is hardly necessary, I will merely call her Miss 8., and say that she Is twenty years old, a little over the medium size of women, and though graceful and elender, is by no meamrsylph-like, angelic, or radiant' Her features are strong for a woman,-but her mouth is rosy and small, always dompresifed with air of savage firmness, except When tile lips axe parted to display a very fine Set of dazzling white teeth. Her eyes are large and fullof a deep hazel color, and have a strange way of looking at one. wonderingly ; above them is an ample forehead, much whiter than the rest of her face, which is very much. embrowned by the burning sun and exposure. Above all are her ebon elfin locks, which are correctly shaded in the middle of the head, and smoothed down the side. of the face after the style of a Madonna. At times n alight tinge of sadness is perceptible, but it is ordered down as peremptorily by this dating girl as the Ghost of Ban quo was by the terrified Macbeth. A native of Boston, she married, at the early age ,of fourteen, a youth of seventeen. The ceremony took place in Dr. Sharp's Church, at Boston. For five years the young couple lived together, and had two children. But a cloud began to overshadow their haPpiness. There was, living . in the same family a lady friend of Miss 8., who listened to the entreaties of her husband, and deliberated upon his argumente. Of course, she fell. They could not re main longer in Boston, Bo : the first steamboat on which they could obtain passage carrie‘the guilty couple to New Orleans. Three niontheoafter this clandestine departure, the injured wife followed them to New Orleans, breathing vengeance against the one who had robbed her of a husband. The in constant husband, the injured wife, and- the para mour, all met at the theatre one night. An angry altercation took place, and the forsaken one de parted after showering bitter imprecations on those who had 'wrecked her youthful hopes, and blasted her future life. As might have been expected, the man whii would not remain with a loving wife could not stay long with a mistress. He left her alone with her- child—helpless, homeless, friendless, pen niless. The rebel army was glad to have hie name, upon the muster•rolls of their conflict with the- Government which bore them: All scoundrels found an- asylum in their ranks. The young and erring mother grew weary of life, and death came, sure and soon, and pangless. In the hospital which charity has erected for the- wretched poor, on the ]lard, narrow cot, with its - scanty pillow, far from her childhood's home, the sinned against and sin ning meet. "Do you forgive me, Mary?" feebly in. quired the dying girl? " No; I cannot'? "Wont you see me properly buried then, eh? It's hard to think of being thrown into the bare pine coffin, by the cold, penurious hands of charity—no one to even look sorrowfully upon the lid as the falling dirt covers it and me from view." The dying shuddered, and exclaimed, "It's horrible !" But the heart of the woman who sat by her side was petrified—stone could not be more cold, impassible, impenetrable. • She had prayed that she might witness this hour, and, with savage joy, she saw the fruition - of her vengeful hopes. The wan sufferer on the poor house cot died, was buried, and forgotten. The little blos som, having lost its parent stem, faded, withered, decayed. In the rneantimb, a decree of divorcement had been granted to the lady, and she was known as Miss 8,, "the live Yankee, from Boston." Looked on by all with enmity, her comfort lost, and , her life daily threatened, shenever faltered in her allegiance to her country—never ceased to venerate. the flag which her old father sailed under so long. She was fiercely ordered - to quit the city, just before it was captured.' Ascending the Mississippi a distance, she travelled as best she could to Memphis, where her former husband savilier, and made overtures of marriage to her again. She - scorned him. He pleaded with her as only he could, who knew her weakness', but she was firm, and would not . allow herself to be trampled upon again. From Memphis she travelled to Murfreesboro, from there to Weldon.' ScOnethnes she succeeded in getting into the cars; occasionally a Beat in a pri-. obliged to Walk; with all her Ward - robe fn the shape o f a small compact bundle in her hand. All the email creeks in her path were waded, by this girl. Once she availed herself of a canoe, to cross Sayers' Ferry into Woodyille, North Carolina. At neither of these places did this irrepressible Bostonian linger, but, wearied and foot-sore she, travelled all day, eating what she could -obtain, but frequently fasting. At night she crawled into the swamp, or lay concealed in the entangled forest till daylight. She speaks wit -h enthusiasm of the delicious sleep which visited her at nights, while she reposed under _the waking, watching moon. Having arrived at 'Woodville, she straightway started for Gatesville, and from there to Elizabeth City. Miss B. remain ed for some time at the latter place, and stopped with a Dr. C. Elizabeth City is in the midst of the nentral grounds, and has been fearfully ravaged by" both aides. Miss B. manufactured a small Union flag, during her idle hours, and placed it on the roof of the Doctoris house, where it floated night and day to the great annoyance of the guerillas, who, upon one inauspicious day, undertook to lower the beautiful emblem of our nation; Miss B. paased tier arm gracefully round the staff, and, with eloquent looks, dared them to take the colors down while she had an arm to support them. One or two Union men rallied to our heroine's assistance, and the loud language promised to end 'in hard blows. But the guerillas caw approathing a number of our cavalry, and speedily ran away, while the im promptu flag continued in triumph to wave. A Mrs. Campbell is well known in Elizabeth City, and though ale protested with tears in her lovely eyes that she was a good Union woman and never was a rebel, MissVlelates how Mrs. Camp bell's hestelry was the pleasant and secure, retreat of all the guerillas about Elizabeth City. Two la dies are conning within our lines on mission of observation, and to purchase a change of clothing. One of them," Mrs. Maguire, has a husband in the rebel army. Mrs. Maguire travels iicognita, under the name of MIS. Marseilles. Mrs. Culpepper is be lieved to be within our lines at this present time. Imagine a handsome- young woman, who begs for a company of cavalry to capture salt and contripand goods ; listen to her constant, prattle of dead rebels, and look at the white bone ring on the middle finger of her left hand, which she declares was made from a bone taken from the skeleton of a rebel, mad say you never saw an Amazon. The swimming of a narrow stream she calls a mere bagatelle, and her walk from Elizabeth City here, a distance of forty five miles, she performed in a day and a half—upon two meals! 'Whatever morbid Vengeful feelings she may have had toward the young creature who sup planted her with her husband, all seemed transferred to the rebels. Oftimes does she converse with glowing eyes of the glorious times she spent'on the deck of her father's small craft ; and she cannot for get how proudly he would point to the handsome bunting that fluttered at the masthead. A. gentle man who is secretly friendly to our cause begged her t o convey to Gen. Yiele intelligence of a movement which the rebels talked of making against West Point. All through the SOuth she found good' Union people, who • had been terrified into submis sion, and who looked with wonder upon her bold demeanor. They renderedher every service in their power. Two years in coining from New. Orleans to Nor folk !' This was as long a walk, comparatively, as that taken by the enfranchised Imaelties through desert places. "Her life will be short; theirs:was long. But the ingenious, careless Yankee girl made her way over all obstacles, braved every danger, and at last is In a fair way of seeing Boston. B. [Special Correspondence of The Press.) . NOILYOLK, June 6, 1863 The steamer John Rice arrived from Baltimore to day,.and is now et Norfolk. Steamers Silvan Shore and Hero came from Aconie, but the moat leading questiona failed to bring forth a - single answer worthy of publication. The steamer .Tohn -Parren started from Newbein on the 4th instant, "and touched here. Passengers report everything quiet in that department. The ICennebec started for Bal timore this morning, and the Planet for Washing tom , Ia place of the old flag-of-truce boat State of - Maine, we will now have -the beautiful ocean steamer New York, Captain Chosalin commanding. This boat has been to Philadelphia, and returns to her former business of carrying-exchanged prisoners between here and City Point. AU the rebels who go in her to City Point will have a chance to see how beautifully we can furnish and decorate our steamers in Philadelphia. Instead of having all the men in the Northern States impressed into our large armies, `as they suppose, we have thousands of•men in the peaceful walks of life, who, amid the clangor of war, the thunder of artillery, the steady tramp Of armed legions, have not forgot their cunning. ;It is really amusing to hear some of these rebels talk of our growing weakness. lint last week one of them remarked, with an air of sincerity, why, sir, we are ruining the Northern States. The mechanics are all in the army ; the wives and daughters of these mechanics have always depended on the scanty pittance they have had doled out to them by the pro 7 prietors of the factories where they' were so forth nate as to be employed. These factories are now silenced by us, who burnt our cotton that the operatives might starve. We have succeeded be yond.our most sanguine expectations, and it is . my 'opinion, and the belief of the majority of our men, that by worrying you constantly, - we will complete your ruin, and see the grass growing luxuriantly hi the thoroughfaresof NeW York and Philadelphia. The peace-parties are spoken of triumphantly.

Genestil Burnside and Dieloyalists in Kell. [Ppecial:Correspoodeoce of The Press. ] NEAR STANFORD, Ky., June 3, 1863 Whatever may be Gen. Burnside's distrust of his own Rbility, or Whatever is his real capacity, he has, certainly, the happy faculty of energy. For the government of Kentucky he issued one order, No. 38, so brief that it would take but a minute's peru sal, and so comprehensive, that rebellion in thought, word, and deed, is suppressed in Kentucky. We had the opportunity to observed its workings in parts of the State where - the majority was sometimes on the one side and sometimes on. the other. Two other orders rendered effectual assistance to that one—one that all who had ever been connectedwith the rebel army should be arrested, and another, the treatment of all- rebels dressed in our uniform as spies: All soldiers, rebels,-home on furlough, as well as officers, or pretending to be,Were treated as - spies. When we first came into Kentucky, gangs of horse-thieves infested the country, alleging, of course, that they belonged to the rebel army ; sympathy was open mouthed ; aid and succor openly given. Officers and soldiers from the rebel army recruited men, visited and went about the country openly; contraband goods and :all the news wanted openly and freely conveyed to the rebel lines. So mush has it changed, that you now hear not a whimper of sympathy ; no news is conveyed or told ; no rebels are harbored, and no horses are stolen. So much is this the case, that - we are now,. much better informed as to news than , the rebels are. The refugees from East Ten nessee bring daily information, and people here that used to harbor spies, won't do it, and won't tell a word. Some rebel lad, however, got the better of us the other day. Dressed as a cavalry soldier, bearing a sealed envelope, marked official business, and di rected to some one of our officers on the Cumber land, he boldly rode into Ifustonville, represented - himself as an orderly of General Carter, got a pass from theprevoet marshal, and rode out—not without leaving a bequest in the shape of a big scare—for he informed them that the rebels were in force at Li . , berty and marching on iluetonville. The regiment stationed thnre were on the OW vive all night, and-the whole department was disturbed. But a despatch from General Carter that he had sent no such orderly and return pf scolts assured them of the hoax. Quite a number of agents, who were trying to pass pereons through, to enter the Service of the rebels as mechanics and otherwise, have been ar rested. A party who were engaged to go south to 'build iron-clnds, whose rendezvous was near Mount Sterling, were arrested. The man who was to meet them.' foundhimself too closely watched; anoBlcer of the rebel service happened to come through from Tullahom4whom he deputized. The officer went so fares to furnish the horses, when he was arrested,and on hirn were found a rebel mail, and $5,000 in rebel scrip, and he haisince suffered the penalty of death. A notoriouShorse stealer, who publicly went about the country 1 along the Kentucky river, was found secreted on the:roof of a house where a lady and two daughteia resided, who had been all along bitter rebels, an were regular postmasters.

Nzw'Yourr, June 8, 1863 POLITICAL MATTERS wear a decidedly unsettled aspect in this vicinity, the antagonistic Spirits of loyal war and disloyal peace having gone as far towards a warlike collision as the lovers of law and order care to see them go, and now confronting each other, at short range, to wait until the next important war news shall de• cide which is to adopt the positive aggressive. Should Grant be finally foiled at Vicksburg, and Benito at Port Hudson, or should the Army of the Potomac fail to make - another advance before the end of July, this new "peace " party of ours will assuredly attempt to give the Administration serious trouble. Its present aim is - , to induce the declaration of an armistice before Vicksburg can be captured, and before Lee can stir up another "up rising of the North;" by a march toward Washing ton. Should the Western Sebastopol be captured, and the Mississippi rid of all rebel control, the pence men would find themselves driven to the wall for three months, at least; should the rebel Virginia 'army attempt to menace the capital, the insult would so stir the blood of the loyal that he who talked of peace would be in danger of lynch law ; but should Grant be compelled to with " draw from 'Vicksburg, am! the Army-Alf - .the Potomac show signs of remaining inactive this summer, Copperheadism would gather converts by thousands. The cool audacity of Fernando Wood's recent visit to the President, right upon the heels of his harangue to an armed mob in this city on the im becility and despotism of that President, shows plainly enough that he - and his followers consider themselves powerful enough already to adopt the boldest measures = with the Government. The - dif ferent stories told by the newspapers here of the object of Wood's visit to the White HOUBE—tdat he went to "explain" his recent speech at the Peace Convention in this city, or that he went to persuade _Messrs. Lincoln and Stanton to test the temper of the Southern masses with the offer of an armistice-- are all wide of the truth. There is another rumor that Wood went to Washington because he was called thither- , by curious people, and that the con ference ensuing related to that "letter" naming con ditions of peace from Richmond, which Wood has more than once asserted to be in his possession, and' which he has pretended to withhold from publication at the express 'desire of a member of the Cabinet. It is a belief not reatricted to one person, that if this "Stonewall Jackson of the Democracy," who cer tainly holds more intimate relations with the rebel chiefs than any other Southern sympathizer in the North, can at any time exhibit a sufficiently definite and official peace offering from the South to make a mission or secret service seem likely to pay, he will be semi-officially deputed to visit Richmond upon an amiable errand. If you invest the man with less diplomatic and inter-politithal importance than this theory implies, how can .york account for the free dom with which he proceeds to. a conference with the Admihistration immediately after inaugurating a movement directly hostile to the Administration and all its actkof war? Would even his notorious impudence be equal to this, but for some circum stance not visible to the public eye? Let Thurlow 'Weed's recent seemingly-inexplicable affiliation with him be remeinbered, too, in this connection, and still more light is thrown upon the enigma. REBEL SPIES', who reach here by way of Havana principally, arc more numerous in this city and vicinity than the public imagine. The Custom House oflicers catch one oh shipboard every few days, and he is quickly hustled off to safe quarters without notice to the re porteis. Marshal Nugent's detectives, top, manage to nab about a dozen per week, and 'it is a satisfac tion to know that very few of the prowling sneaks manage to escape the meshes skilfully prepared for their whole fraternity. There is a secret club up town, composed principally of Southern residents and sympathizers, who make it their business to keep watch at the hotels and at certain rebel board ing-houses, for rebels 'arriving in town from Havana, New Orleans, Naseau, - and other . places. A rebel spy going to a hotel has but to be a little bright in taking hints, and he will quickly find a gentlemanly lounger in the reading-room, or hili r to offer him a cigar, draw him into a prearranged conversation, and finally invite him to visit a place where he will be treated to champagne and oysters, advised how to elude the provost guard, and put upon the right track for safely transacting the contraband business he has on, hand.

The illustrious Billy brings back six hundred of his close-cropped warriors, a majority of whom will undoubtedly re enlist. WORKINGBIEN of the various different trades are striving to organize a protective union amongst themselves, and will probably . he successful' in their laudable purpose, though at present their meetings have all the discordant elements supposed to be peculiar to Democratic ward meetings. Bogus delegates are detected and summarily turned out; natural ora tors insinuate unsettled accounts against' other orators who are .too ambitious t 6 be honest, and there is a stormy time generally. The politicians, as a matter of course, are already laying their plans to obtain - influence'in the approp.chOg Union., but none of them have any chance in competition with the wily and omnipresent Fernando Wood, who is ever ready to "pay for the Hall" whenever the Workingmen feel like holding a mass meeting. A POD OWING CASE . of singular character is in course of investigation in the United States Circuit Court, and may be'deemed worthy of special note. The persons supposed to ,have been poisoned were three successive captains Of a vessel called the Betsy Williams, sailing be tween this port and Havana, and the person charged with the poisoning is one Griffin, the first mate. A seaman named Lees was first arrested upon sus picion, but on his volunteering to turn States' evi dence against the mate he was acquitted by per mission of the District Attorney, and now testifies against his former superior. The facts thus far elicited seem to prove that the captains found their deaths in some brandy kept in the cabin, and that said brandy was prepared for the purpose by the accused. The case is still on. , THE MOCK AUCTIONEERS, who not long age were a plentiful disgrace to this city, have faded from publit, one after another, under - the vigilant pressure of the police, until only one of the whole tribe remains, and he is in a feeble state., of business in Park Row. And here let me say that our present police force is by far the finest looking and most efficient constabulary organization this city ever knew. They are soldierly in their prim and manly bearing, and to theta we owe such a condition of public peace 'and quiet as New York never enjoyed under any previous regulation. The Board of Police Commissioners, headed by the loyal and indefatigable Kennedy, holds each man to strict account of his prescribed duty, and the manner in which strict order has been preserved at all the ex citing public meetings of the past year, no less than the almost miraculous suppression of the scoundrelly army of Peter Funks, attests the virtue of a depart ment which the Copperheads are now petitioning our weak-minded Governor to - overthrow. THE "LEGAL-TENDER" DECISION of the Supreme Court of the State of New York, First district, whereby greenbacks are pronounced not to be legal tender, occasions considerable discus sion amongst the lawyers and students of the Con stitution. The court affixing that . Government's power is delegated from the Constitution; that the Constitution prohibits the States from making any thing but gold and silver coin a tender for. debt; that the Constitution empowers the Governinent to "coin money," but not to issue paper money ; and that the act bf Congress empowering the Govern ment to make a paper legal-tender, impairs the obli gation of contracts, and is; therefore, unconstitu tional. The principal and strongest point made against this important decision is based upon the argument that the permission from the Constitution to "coin money" does not necessarily refer to metal money alone, but must be taken in a widerconstruc tion.

A " great open-air meeting " was held at Sheffield on the 26th, to consider memorializing the British Government to " use ita good offices to, procure a suspension of hostilities between the North and South, with a view to arrangement of the difficulties between them." The,Tirnes states that 10,000 people were present. The meeting was by no means unani mous. Mr. Roebuck, whose recent choleric speech in Parliament, favoring of Southern recognition, appear); to have provoked general ridicu'e, made also a speech on this occasion. This speech, neither eloquent nor able, is absurdly incorrect in its state- Mente and inferences. Contradictory interruptions were very frequent, and Mr. Roebuck's declamatory gossip had difficult progress. We present a sample of Mr. Roebuck's speech, as reported by the Times: Gentlemen, the question we are about to discuss Is one of the highest possible importance. I look upon it simply as an. English question. Whale for the interest of England, that we should do.- What, then, are the circumstances under which we are called upon to act? I will briefly describe there, and beg you to bear, with - me while I do so, and freely express my opinions to you. These opinions have not been hastily formed ; they are not crotchets of mine. They are the result of long consideration of all the difficulties by which the question is ster rounded. And, therefore, if I -have come to an in correct conclusion, the fault is not one of want of care that I have devoted to it. It is that in the weak-. nese of my judgment I have come to error. Judge for yourselves whether I am in error; but listen , while I explain myself. [Hear, hear.] Many - years ago England .planted great colonies in America. They raised themselves up to a great height. They became three millions of people, and they then de-. termined to separate from England. They declared that they had a right to separate when they thought fit• to do so.. [Hear, heard. They supported that judgment of theirs by arms. They fought England ; they beat England—[hear, hear)--they declared themselves independent. [Hear, hear.] The' con sequence of that is, that they established this great principle among mankind, and when a people are determined to throw off a yoke, whatever that yoke may be, if they have the power, they have the right to do so. [Cheers, and "no, no."] As many as please may cry " No, rio." 'I am merely stating what I believe. England resisted these peOple. Then came France to aid them. France entered into an alli ance with our revolted colonies. Thereupon we de clared war against France. We carried on that war. We were again beaten. We yielded the indepen dence of America, and we made peace with France. Then again we established another great principle—, that when a people are fighting for their liberty it is in the power of any other State—any neutral Power —to ally themselves with the so fighting body. They have a right to do so, and if they have the power to maintain :themselves they are justified in doing so. lam appealing to history. lam not talking wildly. The facts are as I state them. The con clusions have been drawn by mankind. Now, after about eighty,, years of alliance, . the . United States of America have separated in two. Al. large body of these States, calling ,themselves the Confederate States, declared that they would no longer be allied to these United States, but would make themselves independent. [Hear, hear.] They are exactly in the position of the 'American colonies with regard to England in the 1777. [No, no.] All I ask is that you still hear me.. ["What caused the eeparationW] I am accustomed to speak in a'de liberative assembly, and the character of that as sembly is this—that I may say things which the great majority of them dislike ; but there is that courtesy in that assembly, that they don't interrupt. [Cheers,] They wait till I have done, and if they think me wrong they endeavor to answer, me; but they are not discourteous, -and they do not interrupt me. [Cheers.] Then, I say, returning to my argument, the Confederate States, when they determined to secede, were in the condi tion of the American colonies when they declared that they were determined to be independent. [" Slavery l"] I'll come to that by-and-by; but don't be in such a mighty hurry. [Laughter.] They separated ; and what was the feeling in England? I'll tell you what my feeling was. • I know that country. I have been there many years of my life, and I learned a great deal while I was there. They bad a future before them such as no people ever had before. They bad a wonderfully fertile country, intersected with great rivers. They began a free people. They continued a free people. They had English law, the English language, Eng lish literature; and they were-placed in a position such as was never occupied before. 'Their career for eighty years was one of unparalleled prosperity. But between them there has grown up a feeling of antagonism. The South were determined to sepa rate. They did- separate ;. and men in . England mourned that separation ; and none more than my self, because I believed:that if they did separate a great check would be given to the advancement of mankind. The North was separated from the South, and the North began to act. And here b . :- ginsthe lesson I want to read to you. I say I mourned at that separation. But the North them selves, from the very commencement, were so cruel, so determined on empire—("hear, hear," and "no, no")—so determined on maintaining empire, that they forgot charity, they forgot Christianity; they made themselves a spectacle to the world of-cruelty, corruption and horror. (Cheers.) That being the case, my melings changed; but I did ex- Peet that the great power - e denglisbmen. (Hear, hear.) hey said, "We will vindicate to ourselves the right to govern ourselves; and we will fight to the deatit for our independetice." And they have fought to the death. (Cheers. A voice—" Slavery.") They hive conquered the North. (" Hear, hear," and cheersi - and cries of No, no,ti) - i - And now I ask my self if the time has come when Surrounding nations shall do what we ought to do now—acknowledge the South as an independent nation. (Great cheering, and cries of "Never," and " Slavery.") A resolution proposed by the Rev. - Mr. Hopps, favoring Southern recognition, was carried (says, the I d ondon Times) by an overwhelding majority. BRITISH EULOGY OF STONEWALL JACK- CFrem the London Times, May 26.] The Confederate laurels won on the field of Chan cellorvilie must be twined with the cypress. Proba bly no disaster of the war will have carried such grief to Southern hearts as the death of Gen. Jack son, who has succumbed to the wounds received in the great battle of the 3d of May. Even on this side of- - the ocean the gallant soldier's fate will everywhere be heard of with pity, and sym pathy. , Not only as a brave man, fighting for his country's independence, but as one of the most con summate generals that this century has produced, "Stonewall" Jackson will carry with him to his early grave the regrets of all who can admire great ness and genius. From the earliest days of the war he has been , conspicuous for the most remarkable military - qualities. That mixture of daring and judgment which is the mark of " heaven born" gene rals distinguished him beyond any man of his time. Although the young Confederacy has been illustrated by a ntitnber of eminent soldiers, yet the applause and devotion of his countrymen, confirmed by the judgment of European nations, have given the first place to General Jackson. The military feats lie accomplished moved the minds of peo ple with an astonishment which it is only given to the highest genius to produce. The blows he struck at the enemy were as terrible and decisive as those of Bonaparte himself. The march by which he surprised the army of Pope last year; would be enough in itself to give him a high place in military history. But perhaps the crown ing glory of his life was the, great battle in which he fell. When the Federal commander, by crossing the river twelve miles above his camp, ana pressing on, as he thought to the rear of the Confederates, had placed them between -two- bodies of his army', he was so confident of success as to boast that the enemy was the property of the Army of the Poto .mac. It was reserved to Jackson by a swift and secret march to fall upon his right wing, crush it, and, by an attack unsurpassed in fierceness and.pertinacity, to drive his very superior forces lack into a posi tion from which he could not extricate himself ex cept by flight across the river. In the battle of Sun day Jackson received two wounds, one in the left arm, the other in the right hand. Amputation of the arm was necessary, and the Southern hero sank under the effect of it, supported to the last blehis simple and noble character and strong religious faith. [From the London Telegraph. May 27. Add to the splendid valor of a Mu rat the fervid faith of a Cromwell, andthe unbroken success of a Havelock, and we have the captain whose waiving sword and fearless voice the South ern whites would have followed "to the pit." That he never lived to exchange a. division for an army, a flying corps for the massed columns of the field of battle, may perhaps have been good for his•fame ; but the leader who could find the weak place in Hooker's line at Ohancellorsville, and hurle his twenty-five thousand troops upon it so soon as found, as Jackson did, would surely have ripened into a renowned general. Assuredly the most fatal shot of the war to the Confederates, whether fired by friend or foe, wan that,which struck down the life of Stone wall Jackson — a' soldiers every inch, of him, for whatever cause he, contended. TERRITORIAL DIVISION. The Hon. Spencer:Walpole, M.

In opening the new cession as King. of Italy, I have to thank YOU for what you have done daring a period of upwards of two--years. Yon have secured the rights of the nation to its complete unity, and I shall know how to•maintain them in their integrity. • "You first commenced your Parliainentary labors at the time when Providence had taken from us the illus trious "man who so powerfully- assisted me in the diffi-' cult enterprise of our regeneration. All Italy shared the sorrow which I felt for his loss. - "Most of the foreign Powers have recognized that new - kingdom." Our voice will male. itself beard among theirs, for the triumph of justice and for the defence of the principles of l i berty and nationality. ' The marriage of my.danghter with the King of Por- - fugal, while consecrating a useful alliance between two free States,•bas proved to me, as ever, that the joys of ' family-are also those of the nation.- Treaties of commerce have been concluded with. France, Belgium, Sweden. and Turkey, and'others are abont to be negotiated with England and Holland. Thus, by community of interests between the peoples. friendly relations grow up between the Governments. Within. two years from the campaign of the glorious Sub-Alpine army, the soldier s of our new provinces have been organized, and we are now proud of an Italian armr, brilliant alike by its valor and solid in its disci pline. , Our navy. rich with so many great elements, and to the development of which you have devoted oh nauchfsolicitnde, will equal is progress the renown the army has attained. - ableyos ardent desire is, that the nation. own to reckon with security upon the force of its "arias, and that Europe should recognize this fact. • Laterty'is producing its natural results of order and prosperity in. all directions. If the public safety re quires efficacious measures in some provinces, my G o vermuent shall not fail in this supreme duty. The Na tional Guards, who have already deserved so well of their country, will contribate to this object by their zeal. ."With With this same view France is ready to associate herself with us in the adoption of military arrange iannts whenever she perceives the opportunity. • ' Public works are carried on with activity in all the provinces of .the kingdom. the Tronto has already been passed by the locomotive, and. all parts of Italy, already united by, feeling, will be still more berm.d to gether by facility of commntication_ year most argent task is to consolidate the laws of the Kingdom, at the same time fatoring the development of all local forces "Above all I recommend to the solicitude of Parlia ment some arrangements relative to the reorganization of the finances.

It is for us a debt of honor to reply to this confidence by our promptitude to impose upon ourselves the necessary sacrifices. " GENTLF..3I - E3r .

PERSIGNY'S CII:CITLAR Count de•Persigny, Minister ,of the Interior, has a'ddressed the.following letter to the Prefect of the Seine PARIS, May 21, 186 S. MONSIEUR:LE PIiRSET : I hasten to reply to the report which , you address ro.,me relative to the ru mors .which are in ,circulation in the second circum scription of .Paris, and 'according to which the... G overnment, hesitating to'oppose M. Thiel's, thinks of inducing his opponent, M. Devinck, to withdraw. I authorize you to contradict these rumors in the most categorical manner. If 31. Thiers, paying homage to the grandeur of the new empire, had presented himself to universal suffrage as the friend of our institutions, the Govern- • ment would have welcomed with sympathy his re turn to public life; but from the moment that he • has consented, at a meeting of the old parties solely composed of declared enemies of the Emperor and of the empire, to make himself their champion, he has himself rendered imposiible the welcome which the Governmentmight have been disposed to give to the illustrious historian of the Consulate and of the Erripire. Whether 31.-Thiers presents himself to universal suffrage with or without repugnance; whether he consents or not to explain his attitude, there is no longer any doubt possible. He henceforth remains one of the representatives of a regime which France " has condemned, and it is in that quality that the - duty ofthe Government is to oppose hint. M. Thiers is too honest a man for any one to be able to accuse him of taking an oath which he does not intend to keep. What M.. Thiers, however, desires is the re-establishment of a regime which has - been fatal to France and to himself—of a regime flat tering to the vanity"of a few, and disastrous for the welfare of all—which removes authority from its natural basis to throw it as food for the passions of the tribune—which replaces the fruitful movement of action by the sterile agitation of harangues - - which for eighteen years produced only impuissance at home and weakness abroad, and which, having commenced in street disturbance, continued amidst the noise of such disturbance and ended in insurrec tion. No, Monsieur le Prefet, in face of aggrandized France—of that France which has never become so prosperous and so glorious as since M. Thiers and his party have ceased to be in power ; in the bosom of this great city, now the most tranquil, the most wealthy, and the most beautiful:in the universe— no, universal suffrage will not oppose to the Go vernment, which has extridated the country from an abyss, those who had allowed itto fall there.

General Forey s Reportoto Napoleon [Paris (May 14) correspondence of the Saint Public of - Lyons.] The officer who was the bearer of the despatches from General Foley, the moment he landed at St. Nazaire, sent off the substance of them by te legraph to the Emperor and., Minister of War. Ae did not himself arrive in Paris until thia.morn--. ing. He was immediately, received by the Empe ror and interrogated at great length. The, particu- - lar causes which retarded.. the success _of . the . French arms before Puebla . are now known. The - principal one is humanity. The inoffensive popula tion had taken refuge in one-of the quarters of the city, which the commander. of the French -army ~ wished, on that account, to-spare at any price, and the precautions which he. was obliged to .take very much impeded his operations. There ..was _ no want of ammunition, but as there is great difficulty in obtaining• a. fresh supply, every thing possible was done to husband what,- they had, and not only-the- artillery but the _infantry bad the most formal orders to be economical. Lastly, the city was fortified . in a ;very, formidable manner, and the siege of 'Saragossa is, perhaps, the only one that can be comparect.to that of Puebla. Barricades were thrown up in each street, of which those of the faubourg St. Antoine, in ISIS, can scarcely . give an idea. Each house.had its windows-defended with roath-esses, and.-its flat roof covered a yard . thick with earth, and. thus made bomb-proof. All -these innumerable obstacles had to be removed, one by one; the troops had to stop at every - step, and to., - make use alike of the musket, the axe...and dhe spade. The Mexicangerrison, under the orders of Or tega, fought with the,greatest bravery, but. aniong:the besieged those who showed the greatest determina tion were the condottieri of all nations,.who had come to support the Juarez Government, or make . war for their own. pleasure—desertere ..fronts,the Spanish army of General Prim, English, Americans t ., soldiers of Garibaldi, and even, it must be admitted, some n-ench=fers in number certainly—hut led away by , political passions. All these adventurers fought - with desperation, and, although many were_ taken. prisoners, others, preferred to perish rather.than, -surrender, and blew up the houses in which they were posted. The Free Sentiment in Missouri. In a speech at the Chicago Canal Convention, Gov. Gamble, on- behalf of-the State of Missouri. recognized the importance•-ot the .movement, and : said Missouri desired to sacrifice everything.to the Union. [Cheers.] Aminstitution which belongs! to MiBBOUTi , and connects her with the South she her-. self is about _to remove. [Cheers.] She feels the _ importance of the injunction, ig If thy righthand of fends cut it. W.?' [Cheers.] That itis a fixed fact that Ms to be done ' and done so as to be permanent,. I do not doubt atall. [Cheers.]: Ihope that you.: will use your influence, not merely to open thatea, _nal, but that you will give to your people a"true preesion of the deep, the abiding.detennination.and. loyalty of Missouri in adhering to the Union, and, consecrating her all to it. [Cheers.]- _ Gen.. Schofield, in a letter. to a personal friend,. writes the following: -You were right in saying that- LAVSEL an anti-_ slavery man, though not an Abolitionist, before .the . war. These terms have greatly changed their - rela tive meaning since the rebellion broke dut gard universal emancipation as one of thenecessary consequences of the rebellion, or, rather ; ac. one of- the means absolutely necessary to , a complete, restoration of the Union ; -and this becenseclavery - was the great cause of the rebellion,. and the only obstaclein -the way of, a perfect Union. Thaper... ception of these important truths is.spres.ding with, almost astonishing rapidity in this State. I hare. great hope that the State Convention, which, meets, on the lOth inat., will adopt soma measure for the. speedy emancipation of slaves. If so, our difficulm_ ties here will ba substantially at an end. - When the popular mind seizes.a great principle. and resolves to carry it into execution, it hecomes, impatient of the restraints imposed by:existing ;avec,. and in its haste to break down the. barrier. which stands in the way of its darling object becomes, ree. gardlees of all law, and anarchy is the result. This. is -our difficulty here. The people will have freedom. for the slave. No law of the United States, nor...of ' Nihon:Rai, nor' yet any order of the Rreiddent, meets the case: The loyal slave owner demands that his rightalinder the lava be protected. Let sic have an ordinance of the State Convention- which satisfy the demands of the popular mind; and no: loyal manwill murmur. - You can imagine with what deep interest I look, forward to the legal settlement of thisuestion, m deeply involving the success of the grea t cause, for • the time being entrusted to my care. , In Arkansas and other States to.which the Pres/. dent's Proclamation applies, so far as-I have otk served, no such difficulty exists. The loyal people accept the decree without a complaint, perfectly wib, ling to give up all they have, if must be, for the Unron. So much the greater honor is due them, for their cheerful sacrifice, because they do not, and cannot be expected to appreciate and. understaud the principle of freedom as it titaprenedNott tit loyai heart of the North. - • , - sion of my A.
