[From an Occasional Correspondent.] NEW ORLEANS, LA., Sept. 8, 1863 We have here an organization that is doing a great deal of good for the cause of the Union, known as the Free State Central Committee. At a meeting 'of the Committee lately, a series of resolutions were' before it; and among them one referring to the Hon. Wm D.dtelley, a member of Congress from your State, - which led to a very olessant episode. The reaction was an endorsement of Mr. Kelley's course. Mx. Rufus Waples, an eminent lawyer, who was driven from Texas for his loyalty, and who is now the 'United States Diet riot Attorney, stated that the course of Mr. Kelley had ever been in favor of freedom and the best interests of the South, and - from personal interchange of views with the Penn. syliania Representative, he knew that his heart was fin , in the cause After - Mr. Waples - had ceas , A, 7 o and said that he had known Mr. Kelley in boyhood and that: his principles were the same then as now— that he had:worked with him in Philadelphia and admired hinillB a public man as heartily as he ad- - mired him as a fellow-apprentice. Mr. Waples fur ther stated that on the iloor.of the Mouse, during the. last session, Mr. Kelley, in reply to some taunt upon the laboring Classes, had claimed to be:a labor ing man .himself. Theie statements were greeted with applause, a strange thing for haughty, slavery loving, and patrician tounaina. The Committee consists of sixtyrfour members, all true to the cause. They are delegates from the different Union associa tions in this city and vicinity, and their specialty is to obtain a 'free.State constitution for this State. A Defender of Free • I.)eeen. To the Editors of the Evening Post: Some twenty-five years. ago Charles C. Burleigh :visited Wilkesbarre. in Pennsylvania, for the pur pose of expressing free speech in behalf of freedom. He was denied this right constitutional, and escort. ed out of that pretty village in a manner not pro. vided•for in the instrument which' we call the char ter of American liberty. A meeting of the people, in which George W. Woodward, then an aspiring lawyer, took a prominent part, led to this summary expulsion of the voluntary free speaker. Mr. Bur leigh can no doubt testify to the facts, and the Rev. A. L. Post produce the files of the Montrose Speck• tor, containing the particulars. The Hon. George W. Woodward, now a Guberna torial candidate for Pennsylvania, is the identical person who thus denied freedom of speech to one of his fellow-citizens. He is the candidate of that party so clamorous for freedom of speech in behalf of slavery and rebellion. His record is consistent. Freemen of Pennsylvania pause, reflect, and dis card the man- who has shown himself capable of wresting from an American citizen his most sacred rights.

[Correspondence of the New York Herald.] FLAGSHIP PHILADELPHIA, . LIGHTHOUSE INLET, S. 0., Sept. 11, 1883,' For some time , pmst an expedition against Fort Sumpter has been contemplated by Admiral Dahl gren, and on Tuesday last, the Bth, it was determined to,carry the plaq into execution. For that purpose orders were given.to tlie different vessels of Charles tont° send detachments of sailors and marines, with =posts, to; the Sagchlp, preptired for the proposed -:Movement; ' The marine battalipnon shore was ordered to send one hundred men and six officers to the flagship to participate in assault, and the naValliattery was also to send its quota, consisting of four officers and fifty.three men. At dark all the detachments had arrived, and at about eleven o'clock the expedition, consisting of over twenty boats, and with 34 officers and 413 men, of.which NO were marines, was placed under the command of Commander Thomas IL Stevens, of the Patapsco, with Lieutenant Commander S. B. Ilunce and Lieutenant' Moreau Forrest aa aids. 'Lieutenant Commander Williams ' of the Wiese =hickon, was placed in charge of the first division of boats ; Lieutenant Remy, of the naval battery, of the second ; Flag Lieutenant Preston, of the third; :Lieutenant Higginson, of the Powhatan, of the :lourth, and Captain McCawley, commanding the 'marines; and Ensign Craven, of the Housatonic, the,Eith division. Captain Stevens and his aids led the flotilla in the Admiral's barge. was to assail the fort on three sides—one party land ing-on the gorge wall, and attempting to ascend the debris' and gain the parapet; a second was to at• tempt to • gain- entrance through the lower etribra stires, and a third was to act as a reserve. The Da[• fodil took the boats in "tow, and steamed up to a short distance from Sumpter, when they cast off and formed in line of attaßk. • The boats ruined cautiously, :along, and made slow progress necessarily, as the proper line of attack had to be observed. THE BOATS'APPROACH POET SIII4IPTER. At halt , past one the first lineof boats approached closely the fort, and were discovered by the sentry on the walla of the worlc, and sharply chal:enged. No reply was made to the question of "What boat is that l" A second challenge tof, the same nature failing to elicit a reply, the sentry discharged his musket, and oallect to the officer below to " Turn out the guard." The boats, on - being hailed pulled quickly to the fort, but before they could reach it, several, shots had been fired at them. The boats had dashed rapidly up, the formation of the line of ad vance being broken, and each: boat striving, to effect the first landing. A , LANDING EFFECTED Seven boats succeeded in getting alongside of the ddbris- on the gorge wall; the others, while pushing up, were met with a sharp fire of musketry. Signal lights were birned from Sumpter, and in a moment all the:rebel batteries bearing on the fort opened a fire of shell.-and shrapnel, on the fort itself, and, of 'course, 011 - any party that might be about its base. About one hundred and fifty sailors and marines got ashore, and instead of finding a elope of ddoria upi to the parapet of, the gorge wall, they found a per pendicular range of masonry, which the rebels had constructed, meeting them full in the face. All their efforts to find a place of ascent were fruitless. Not a soul could ascend the wall, and the party found themselves in a critical position. The rebels had manned the Parapet - with infantry, and were also firing through loopholes, formed by sand-bags,,in the upper slope of the darts. In addition to this; five hand grenades were hurled upon the assaulting party's heads, and bricks were detached and tumbled down upon them. Three of the boats were torn to pieces by hand grenades or shells from the distant rebel batteries, and retreat was being rapidly cut off. At thiejuncture a rebel - ram came down and opened fire with grape and canister upon the boats, the rebels on the fort throwing flashes of light upon the dark waters about them from a large locomotive lamp. 'As each boat was brought to light volleys of musketry, canister, and grape, were poured in from the fort and gunboat, and many men killed and wounded. The only mark for our men to fire at was this light, and a volley or two was thrown at it, but to little effect. Finally, a continuance of their efforts to +carry outthe plan • being evidently of no avail, and promising only a heavy lose of men without any gain, the order to retire was given. Four boats camd off from the landiog at the gorge, and three, being destroyed, were left-there, Only a small, portion of the storming party, succeeded in re gaining their boats. Many were killed and the balance taken prisoners. I=3 About ten officers and one hundred and four men are mieeing—eighty known to bekilled or wounded. The officera taken prisoners are at follows :.Lieut.' Corn. Williams, Lieut. Berney, Flag Lieut. Pres ton, Lieut. Brower, Ensign Porter and Acting ales ter's Mate Bovey; Lieute. Bradford and Meade, of the marine corps . ; Acting Master's Mate-;McCar thy, of the Canandaigua. Lieutenant Bradford, - of the marine corps, is the only :officer wounded. Sai'maker Brayton is also among the wounded. Lieutenant illgginson, who was to have gained access to the fort through the embrasures of the lower casemates, in the northeast face, found a landing impracticable, and was cam• pelled to give up the attempt, as his boats .were thumping heavily on sharp rocks at the base of the fort. Lieutenant Lowry, of the marines, who had charge of two boats, discovered the rebel steamer bearing down upon his boats before he had reached the fort, and as she opened fire and seemed deter mined to run the boats down, he ordered his divi sion to, pull for shoal water. '-The steamer soon turned and _steamed towards Fort Moultrie, and Lieutenant LoWry ordered his boats to pull up again to the fort. Other boats were driven off' by this steamer and prevented from co-operating as effectu ally as they might have done. It may, perhaps, be regarded as a fortunate circumstance that all the boats did not effect a landing, as itwould only have resulted ill all increftse of the rebel gaiffin'prisoners. The want of success of the expedition is due to causes over which neither Admiral Dahlgren nor Commander Stevens bad any control. The appear ance of the tidies on the gorge face was deceptive. Instead of sloping gradually from the parapet to the water's edge, it was found to slope only from the parapet to the top of the sand.bag barricade or tra verse, which the rebels piled up to protect the wall against our breaching batteries. This wall of sand bags wat at least twelve feet high, and without the aid of scaling ladders no one could possibly reach the top, from which, perhaps, it might have been possible to mount the parapet or the mass of the de bris. , This fact was not discovered until the attempt to scale the wall had been made, and then it was un der a heavy fire. Retreat was cut off so quickly by the destruction of the boats, and the appearance of the rebel steamer, at a short distance only from the gorge, that the only sensible alternative between death and surrender was made by the party remain ing on the landing, and they gave themselves up' as prisoners, and were speedily inside Fort Sumpter, although not as captors. BEAUREGAF.D'S BLUSTER. The Times' correspondent writes : The prisoners including the officers, are still with in the fort . A! flag of truce, sent out yesterday, brought- the intelligence from Lieut. Preston that he and his fellow•officers were well treated, and as comfortable as- the circumstances would admit. Bully Beauregard took the opportunity of sending the threatening message to Admiral Dahlgren that he' would place the prisoners on the parapet of Sumpter if the navy made it an object of fire. Ad miral Dabigren replied, with as much dignity as the nature of the case would justify, that if he (Beaure gard) should resort to such a heathenish mode of procedure, then he might look at the same hour for ebel prisoners tied to the outer surface of the moni tors' turrets. It is thought the 'answer of the admi ral•will do much toward bringing the bobtailed Beauregard to a sense of the common rules of civi lised warfare. - THE FREEDMEN ON.PARIS ISLAND [Correspondence of. the Tribune. _ PARIS ISLAND, August Whenever the negroes do a good deed -it should find a chronicler, not that their good deeds are any, marvels in themselves, but because of the opinion " that no good thing can come out of this Nazareth," and because of them who have hardened their hearts to believe a lie, that may be obliged to change their opinion. Two weeks ago, at our old church, I told the people there assembled that I had read in the North ern newspapers that the colored laborers on Lady's Island, Port Royal, and St. Helena, had contributed of their stores of vegetables and garden products to the hospitals; and suggested that Paris Island should not fall behind in good works and charities, and ex pressed-a hope that they would each contribute their mite to aid the wounded and sick soldiers. I did not urge the matter much; I could not havethe heart to do it, for our ,whole island seemed like a hospital— small-pox, chickenpox, fevers, and all manner of diseases incident to the extreme hot month of August prostrating them. What do you thinkthese " descendants of baboons and, monkeys!' did I Before they left the church they quietly laid their plans, and on the Thursday followings fair wagon load of sweet potatoes, pump kins, tomatoes, chickens, eggs, ochre, green corn, and melons, were sent up on a row-boat to-Beaufort; and deposited at the doors of the hospitals.

General. Blunt's Campaign. The Fart Smith, Arkansas, correspondent of the Mireouri Democrat, under date of the 3d instant, yirites: General lihmt and his gallant little Army of the Frontier entered this place day before yesterday, After driving the rebel Generals Steele and Cooper beyond Perryville to Red river, he returned north ward, and detaching two brigades in different di rections to hold and - guard the newly-possessed. country, he took Cloud's brigade and marched in this direction. Encountering Cabell .with 2,600 troops at Poteau creek, twelve miles west of here, the rebels were soon put to flight, and the Federal forces marched into this fort. Colonel Cloud has been made commander of the post. present force consists of the let Arkansas (white loyal) Infantry, the 2d Kansas Volunteer Cavalry, the eth llfrissouri Cavalry, and four pieces of Robb's Indiana Battery. Other forces of this army are in supporting distance, and no interruption to the continued further occupa tion of this section of country need be apprehended. The looks of the citizens here, as we marched into the place, were as various as their dispositions: Some were sulky, lowering, mad, and dissatisfied. Some have not yet left their houses, but remain se cluded.' The Germans, of whom there are several hundred in this vicinity, are enthusiaetically and welcomed our troops with every expression of gratitude and pleasure. - Two regiments of Creek Indiana, who have been under the rebel Colonel Mclntosh, have deserted, and are coming into our camps by ecores. The Union Government may ne gotiate a treaty of peace and alliance with the Creek Nation at its pleasure. They have rebelled against the Confederacy in consequence of the orders for them to take their families and move south to Bed river. This they-will never do. You will hcar with sadness that General Blunt is seriously ill. Some of his physicians regard him as dangerous. He has a slow, nervous fever, exhaust ing and inteneely painful, causing almost utter sleeplessness, and a total prostration of all the ener gies of his body. It has affected him through all this brief campaign. He was sick whemhe started, but felt that there was a work before him which must be done. Sealed in hisambulance, he hair di. rested the smallest details of every movement, and each day's labor, that was more than enough to tire a well man, has been followed by a wakeful night, rheumatic pains, and the diagnosis of a hell which a fever presents. He is now entirely prostrated; but the objeste of his campaign are accomplished, and we hope that rest and an absence of anxiety will speedily restore him. MIL FORREST'S ELOQUBaCE.—The New York World has the following opinion in a recent criti cism of Mr. Forrest's Brutus: We must tell Mr. Edwin Forrest candidly that we are getting wearied with steadily chronicling his racemes. There is no let up to his prosperity. Re has worked the treadmill of popularity persis tently for ever so many years, breaking the bones of athletic reviewers beneath th‘cog-wheel of the ma chine.,•and sawing into-fragMents the iumberpiles of tough criticism that have been tumbled upon him. "Ile disdains the advances of time, and refuses to turn : gray or weer wrinkles to oblige the proprietor of the Scytheand hour-glass. He is lusty in twigs and perfect .in muscular development. His intere.st. art is even greater than ever before, and he had heroically ;parted with many original sins against taste - and vraisemblance. In a word, he is much superior to the Forrest who used to fill the old Broadway Theatre putts ago, and who exercised an „influence upon the minds of men almost, if not quite, equal, to that of Webster or Clay. Oratory now perhaps, is his forte, although his mimic power has not been impaired. We should judge that it is-his eloquence rather than his impersonations that= Secures the wonderful interest night after night manifested-in his presence. He seems to have got at - a portion of the secret by which Demosthenes made himself im mortal, and it requires no great discernment to dis. cover that, should Mr. Forrest apply his didactic ability in the more serious business 'of human affairs, he would wield an influence upon the destiny of states and nations that might bind his memory to the last pane of history. NEW BASE OF ROSECRANS' SIDTPLIES.-11. letter from Stevenson, Alabama, says that arrangements have been made to complete the Northwest Rail road, leading in a southwest direction from Nash ville to the Tennessee river.. This road was pro jected before the war, and all the grading had been done, except a distance of four miles, at the time of its abandonment.: The entire length of the road is seventy-five_ miles. The_ iron is ready for it, arid a force has been placed at work to complete itS With in the next two months it will be finished, ididYß.orte crane' army need no longer rely on the erbivded Louisville and. Nashville road for its nice*les. Boats can ascend the Tennessee river at all seasons to the point where the road terminates, and supplies can be rum into Nashville at a much more expedi tious rate than through the old channels. The wrens. phis and Charleston road could be restored without serious labor. The only important bridge missing la that at Decatur, over the Tennessee. It will be seen, therefore, that the advance of this army will not depend upon one slender iron parallel, when `these improvements are completed, as was the case last y ear. • THE BORDER Honnons.—Governor Carney,of 7:ansas, hi his recent letter to Gen: Schofield, said; "You will not misunderstand me. Ido not use, or intend to use, any threat. I tell you only what our people, almost to a man, feel. The excitement over the' E.I.ICCCI3B of Quantrel is intense—intense all over the State, and I do-tot see how I can hesitate to de mand, or how you can refuse to grant, a court, of inquiry, by which the causes of that fatal success may be fully investigated, and all the facto laid be fore the public. Igo even further. I demand that this court' of inquiry shall . have power to investi gate all-matters touching military wrongdoing in Kansas." To which General Schofield thus frankly re sponded: "I have forwarded a copy of your letter. of the tn - thn_.....i.......t._and - requefil.ed the Pr( aident to appoint a court of illgulug—With , full owers to investigate all matters touching murerri-y— -affairs in Kansas, and have urged it very strongly. I have no. doubt the court will be- appointed, and - that the responsibility for the sad calamity which has befallen LasWence will be placed where it pro. perly belongs."' . THE GREAT WEALTH N:EVADA.—Rev. Mr. Simpson, of the Methodist Church, in Chicago, in his Thanksgiving sermon, gave the following sketch of the untold store of mineral wealth of Ne vada : When in California, I visited the mines, and I thought the time would come when they would be exhausted; but in the mines of Nevada there are no indications visible. The more the mines are worked, the richer the yield. The extent of the ledges con taining the preciOus metal no man has yet been able to meaeure. I will mention a single instance, to give you some idea of the inexhaustible supply. In what is termed the Ophir Mine; a single lead, as ills called there, is fifty-five feet in thickness, and inclines only at an angle of five degrees. Think of the extent of that-- nearly as far as Mona this altar to yonder wall. This is all silver mingled with gold. There is more gold in value than silver, but more silver in weight than gold. The company have only two hundred feet working, and, out of that they are now realizing about ten thousand dollars a day. There is this peculiarity about - it, that the deeper the mine extends the richer and more profitable it becomes. When I was there, they had penetrated two hun dred,-feet. There were live chambers which they had dug out, one under the other, leaving three large pillars to support the roof. They would sink a shaft down about forty feet, make another plat form, dig out the metal, leaving pillars - as before, and then sink - another. One of the directors told me each lower platform gave ap much yield as all the other platforms combined ; that is, the fifth plat form was as valuable 113 the four above it put to gether. Such wealth was never a matter of contest among the powers of earth Wore. THE Mertrz ELECTION.—The Portland Press very humorously characterizes the failure of the Demo. .cracy.in the Maine election - : "The graduates of a college class of someten years ago, tell a story of the late Prefessor Cleaveland, which Is applicable to the late election. The Pro fessor was getting quite animated in sonic illustra tion, when his great compound blow-pipe, retort, or whatever it was, burst, just as the grand principle in science was being made plain, and nearly destroyed the Professor himself. Pulling the pieces of glass out of his hair and clothes, the Professor said: " Gentlemen, an accident has prevented the demon stration, but the principle remains the same as I have described it to you." That is the way with the elec tion, and the people will realize it' every day more and more. Too much gas, generated by those chemi cals that enter into the manufacture of greenbacke, burst our retort, but the principle is left." -ARREST OF AN EX PROVOST MansEAL.:--Provost Marshal Strachan, of- Palmyra, Mo., has been ar rested, charged with having embezzled $30,000 from the Government. He has also been indicted by a grand jury for having committed an outrage upon a woman under heartrending, humiliating, and ag gravating circumstances. The woman was the wife of one of the ten- rebels cOndemned to be shot by Gen. McNeil, about a year ago, for breaking their parolee. CoNFISOATION 61THE. REBEL 'GBNERAL TRIM. BLE'S PROPERTY.—The Whelling Inteiligencer of Saturday says “ The confiscation case of General Isaac R. Trim ble was disposed of yesterday in the United States Court. Trimble is the man who distinguished him self in the great Baltimore riots, at the breaking out of the war.. Re is now a general in the rebel army. The marshal seized in February, 1662, one hundred and sixty-boxes of railroad fastenings in this city which belonged to Trimble. The property was con demned to sale for the benefit of the United States. Trimble is the patentee of the fastenings.” Truk ROWING MATOH.—Those interested in boat. ing matters will be pleased to learn that Ward and Hamill have again .$ come to terms,r and that Mon day, the 28th-inst., has been agreed upon as the time for another contest. The race will be over the five-mile course, at Poughkeepsie—the same upon which the last race took place. One thousand dol lars aside has been staked on the result, and Hamill and his friends feel sanguine of his ability to carry, off the wager in triumph. Hamill, being obliged to meet Ward on his own waters once more, gets two hundred dollars for his expenses. The difficulty about _turning the, stake-boat has been settled by Ward, yielding the point to Hamill, so that the ar rangements are complete, and the race *ill - take place on the day stated, should the weather permit. —Pittsburg Gazette. A New Peoni BY Ma. EALERSON.—In the October Atlantic a poem of considerable length will appear from one whose contributions are always most wel come. The piece he is now about to give to the readers of the magazine is entitled " Voluntaries," and its subject grew out of the days of war and sor row through which our country has so long been passing. ` We are glad to learn, also. that a stinging letter to Thomas Carlyle, by Kr. Wasson, will appear in the next Atlantic. These promised contributions, together with Charles Sumner's paper on "Our.

SIB: Months ago I should have ac knowledged the receipt of your boolcand accompa nying kind note, and I now have to beg your pardon for not having done so. _For one of my age I haVe seen very little of the drama. The first presentation of Falstaff I ever saw was yours here last winter or spring. Perhaps the best compliment I can pay is to say, as I truly'. can, lam very anxious to • see it again. Some of Shakapeare , s plays I have never read, whilst others I have gone over perhaps as frequently as any un professional reader. Among the latter are " Lea," "Richard III.," "Henry VIII.," "'Hamlet," and especially "Macbeth." I think noneequals " Mac beth." It is Wonderful. Unlike you gentlemen of the profession, I think the soliloquy in " Hamlet," commencing, "0, my offence is rank," surpasses that commencing, "To be or ztot to be." But pardon: this small attempt at •criticiam. I should like to hear you pronounce the opening speech of "Richard the III." :Will you not soon visit Washington again' If you ao, please call and let me make your personal acquaintance.
