[Special Correspondence of The Press.] Orimptcries 0. 11., March 30, 1864. A. Rev Sew of Cavalry The old let Corps and General riferrittis division of Cavalry were reviewed yesterday morning. A abort distance from town, near the base of Pony IWauntain, is a large epees of cleared ground admi. rably fitted for military display and the manoeuvring of troops. The, men were under arms as early as 6 A. M., and when drawn up into line by divisions „ with bayonets glittering in the rising sun, and colors, guidons, division and brigade ensigns flutter ing in the rising breeze, the might was grand, im posing, magnificent. El= Generals Grant, Meade, and Warren, rode around the lines, but before the head of the infantry column began to pail in review, a terrific rain storm came on, which abruptly terminated further ceremonyand display. The cavalry and infantry marched back to their quarters through last-failing rain. All through the day and all night long the storm of, wind, rain, and sleet continued with unabated fury—soldiers were wet in their tents, officers had the canvas-she'. term torn from above them, and were left uncovered on the ground in the midst of the thick gloom, while the rain pitilessly poured out its wrath in great drops upon theli bewildered faces. The Rappahan nock rose in ipajeity, and Left its accustomed chan nel, bearing op iii troubled waters the pontoon brivge.s_ whichrhas connechld both its bank. for many a month. The rain has now ceased, but the sky still presents a restless, angry aspect. A loco motive in waiving the witch at the depot, ran off the track, and the workmen have been all morning endeavoring to get the unweildy engine on it pro per track. This will detain the train for , Washing. ton a whole day almost. As the indiaationi of a general movement of the army become manifest, the symptoms of restless ness among the few contrabands who still bear true allegiance to their masters grows more and more apparent, when, we learn, all the Degrees will go with us. I remember when, with Gen. Costar, as we passed through Madison Court House, on the late raid, what a furore our Unexpected appearance made among the contrabands. They gathered about the corners of the streets, in small groups of three and four, and with "bated breath" and nervous gesticulations discussed the feasibiltty of " leablne wid de Yankeei die blessed intuit." There was Out one man in the town. He wore spectacles, and carried exemption papers in his left vest pocket. With a woeful face and quivering 40108 he begged me to "look at those niggers caucusing on the very street corners." I remember seeing many of the same faces / was then requested to look at three days afterward. They were turned towards Wash. tugton, and evidently sought for Abraham's bosom. MADISON COURT HOUSE Madison Court House is a picturesque little vil lage on the slope of the Blue Ridge. Few soldiers have ever been quartered for any great length of time in the neighborhood. Consequently, there is not that faded, whiny look about the place so per• ceptible in towns long occupied by troops. Every thing looks freak and clean. The original inhabi tants are much scattered; many of them entered the army in the heat of the excitement. MC lowa people were at one time so rebellious that they feared Virginia would not take a sufficiently bold 'tend for the sovereignty of the " Old - Dominion," and they actually threatened to secede from the Union themselves. They are now heartily sick of their past conduct. Captain Strothers keeps a corn. pany of cavalry about them for the sole purpose of assisting the conscription officere in enforcing their Impressment'. A FALLING OUT Only two weeks ago, it wan reported the enemy Were moving in tome around our right flank. Every thing was prepared to move back to the heights of Centreville. The family residing in the house ad joining the one in which I stop had a servant whom they bighly valued. Fearing she might make her hegira amid the expected battle, they looked her up in her master's chamber in the second story. When things had assumed their usual strilnesl, the ladies of the house went up stain to look for Jane. They entered the room, and seeing an open window, with a shred of Janes garments hanging to the easement, very naturally suspected that their valuable servant hadsgone without asking permission, of wishing them good•ble. The army is now regularly organized into three corp.. The 2d, composed of the old corps and Sir nay,' division of Sd Corps, is now commanded by General Hancock. The sth has fused with it the old let Co*s, and has for its leader General Warren, whose headquarters is now in town. Sedgwisk has the 6th COMA, embracing his own and a portion Of the 9d Corps. Every preparation is making to in erease the efficiency of this army; that when it nitwit it will be with power and weight. AU this time the enemy are not idle, and I think the coming campaign will be fearful, terrible, and sanguinary. HARRISBURG (Special Correepondenee of The Press.] HARR/8117R8% April 2, Mt . "Winter linger' in the lap of spring." It is snow ing steadily to-day, which is something unusual for this season of the year at this place. We hewn had much rainy, disagreeable weather during the past two weeks. Mud is the ruling element. The river is riling, and, in a few days, it will be covered with floating lumber, going to a southern market. Con. siderable timber has already passed down, which is commanding fabulous prices. A large amount of boards and timber is waiting for "high water." An immense quantity of lumber is now upon the upper branches of the Susquehanna. Lumbermen every wheie have put forth increased efforts. Prices have gone up out of sight. Buyers are paying any price demanded, and, in a short time, the lower markets will be well supplied. An important bill has passed the House. I say important—it may not be considered such by the people generally. It is very well known that the Northern tier of counties are isolated from the great heart of the State. Tioga and Platte, in particular, have no direct connection with the interior of the State. They can only reach the capital by patting through a portion of New York; consequently all of their commercial interests are with the State of New York. Their coal and lumber, In a great met pure, find a Northern market, and their merchants buy their goods in New York, instead of Philadel phia. This state of affairs is not the choice of the people of these counties. They would prefer to do their business with the people of their own State, but, by force of circumstances, they are compelled ip do otherwise. The bill to which I refer proposes to run a ralb road from Jersey Shore (on the Philadelphia and Erie), up Pine creek to Manchester, in 'Doge court. ty. It there branches off; one branch running up Marsh creek, down Crooked creek to the State line, by the way of Tiogs, and to connect with the NeW York and Erie at Corning. The other branch con. tinues up Pine creek to the summit, noises over to Cdidersport, and passes down the Allegheny, and connects with the Erie Railway at Salamanca. The recent bill only refers to the branch which connects at Corning. The main bill passed several years since, and was revived at the last melon. This measure is of vital importance to the people of the counties referred to, and their interest is the interest of the State at large. These maniles are full of coal, and covered with valuable forests of pine, and it is to be hoped that a railroad communi cation may be opened up to them. They are nom, socially, commercially, and almost politically, 110. lsted from the interests of the Stitt.. Let this road be completed, and the merchants of the northern counties will visit Philadelphia instead of New . York.. It will be the breaking down of a barrier which hes long out them off from the interior por tion of the. State. Senator Wilson, of Tioga, has introduced a bill in relation to the assumption by the State of the debt contracted by the different district" for the purpose, of paying bounties to volunteers, which has been re. ported from the committee with an affirmative re commendation.:-;t provides that the State shall pay $BOO to every county, ward, or township, for each volunteer sept from each county, ward, or township, under the call for 600,000, provided so mush was paid by the respective, districts for va luators. This is a question upon which there may be an honest eifferenoe of opinion. It is a question of great magnitude, and should, and undoubtedly will, receive due consideration. The State originally should • have paid the boun ties. The process would have been more 'simple and the effect would have been more equal, A State bounty should have been given to each volunteer from "Very subdistriet until its quota was filled. It not now too late to remedy this evil, and Senator Wilson's bill Is demanded by the best interests of the country. The State can belt manage a dobt of this magnitude. Besides, if assumed by the State, large class of property can be reached for , taxation which cannot • reached by the counties—a class best able to help bear the burdens of the war. I Mink this will pass the Senate without serious opposition, and I know of no reason why it should . be opposed in the Rouse. .

New Ritual. er the K. v v . 43.,E. The Chicago Tribune publishes lt new ritual of the Knights of the Golden Circle," zepld.tuirave been adopted at a meeting just held tit unit city, The Tribune says : "Its features are cunningly and skilfully drs,wn, and if carried out would perfect a strong and com pact orgaruzaUon. The society is composed of clubs of ten, each acting under a chief. These clubs are completely isolated, and unknown to each other. The chief of one club reports back to the club where he was initiated, but beyond these two clubs he is unacquainted with the nadtviduril members of the organization. These elubs ate composed of personal friends or business men closely associated, so that they may act in harmony or be readily called together, and are provided with technical - algae, passwords, and grips, and each member designated by a number, the chief being 1, vice chief 2, &c. All of the minor details of the organization and tile programme for the development of its plans are shrewdly arranged and elaborated, and make, when combined, a powerful secret society, the detection or suppreasion of which would be well-nigh impossible. Unknown to itself, it would work, nevertheless, in complete harmony throughout its various ramides tioks to the accomplishment of its objects. 6 , This organization has a double object in view, prat, the election of a Copperhead like McClellan or Irallanaigham to the Presidency, try which the independence Of the rebels may be secured With slavery restored to them ; or, failing in that, the kindling of- the flames of civil war in the North, which shall compass the same object, and to this end these clubs are being extended ail over Illinois, and will rapidly spread through the other States. This exposure will serve to put Union men on their guard, and thwart their diabolical schemes. We are no alarmists, but we warn loyal men of the danger ahead, in the hope that by timely action and ener getic efforts the plotting. of this treasonable organi zation may be or notlivall." Here 10 a passage from the "ritual"; "We are against the extermination of the white race of the South, and against the universal mace cipation of the black race by Federal authority. e are against the effort now making to bring bleak labor in competition with the Moor of the freemen of Illinois. We are against every infringe. Meht of the rules of civilized war. We are against the Administration of A braham Lincoln; and We believe that a policy looking to peace, founded on good faith, an honest interpretation of the Constitu tion, and a real desire to restore the former brother hood of States and sections, are the only means to reconstruct the Union and save the Republic" Why a southern Born Man is Anti-Slavery. There was an immense Union war meeting at Bryon Ball, Chicago, last week, at which Governor Yates, of Illinois, was the principal epeaker. In the course of his remarks, he said : "I am antislavery, not because I was born in New England, and have my prejudices naiad the Southern people, but because I was , born in the South ; there centre all the memories of my youth, there is the home of my kindred, and I believe that the warm, genial pulsations of humanity flow in as deep a current through Southern veins as in any people beneath the sun—but slavery has been the canker of the South, to eat out both its substance and its manhood, and to subject it to a boastful, in culling, arrogant aristocracy, which, from the habit of tyrannizing over the poor slave, hes become too pampered and arrogant to submit to the rightful authority of good government and laws. Slavery not only oppressed the African race, sundering hus band from wife and father from son, exacting ser• vice without remuneration, but degraded the poor white, deprived him of his rights, reduced the wages of his labor, divided the land into large plantations, so that the white population was sparse and schools few and remote. It stood as a perpetual living wall, a black and ghastly spectre to roll back the tide of emigration which was pouring from Europe and NewEnglancl, and which sought the prairies and woods of the Northwest, and which, under the genius and lifegiving energy of free labor and free institutions, has marched forward with stalwart giant tread to wealth and power, while the South, with its fertile soil and genial sky, lass drooped and withered beneath the curse of slavery. "It is for the South, as well as for the welfare of the country, that I wish to see slavery extinguished. Small farm., free labor, free schools, a free Press and open Bibles, free institutions will make the South bloom and blossom as the rose. [Loud Cheers.] Whenever aelf-poised and conscious of be moral statue and power—when every man can lilt up to God unfettered limbs and soul—then the South will start with a bound ; emigration and ge nius, and art and enterprise will seek her sunny hills and va les; and these shall be the Lookout Mountains upon her deliverance and a race of, uri• ending progress to wealth, power, and renown." [Lengthened applause.] The Ringleaders of tile Illinois Riot. [From the Chicago Tribune. Both Coles and Edgar counties furnish striking proof and warning to all other counties in the State, that no local office can safely be entrusted to disloyal men. Two meaner tools of the rebellion cannot be found in Illinois than the two infamous brothers, William S. O'Hair, sheriff of Edgar county, 4nd John S. O'Hair, sheriff of Coles county. Their fa ther Is ex• Sheriff Mike O'Hair, of Edgar, and both arc "chips of the old block," and of the three it may be said that it is s. misfortune to the loyal cause that the three are out of readh of the rebel conscription, which would find them ready-made to its uses, and far less dangerous to us in the rebel service. The share of Sheriff John O'Hair, of Coles county, in the late disturbances is set down in our despatches elsewhere. Both he and his brother are Men of des perate character, and he seems to have led in the. bloody work begun and carried out. It was a de. liberate and murderous attack on the soldiers and Union citizens, resulting in the loam of several lives, many wounded, and the flight of the assailants. It is noticeable in this case, as in Paris, Edgar county, a short time since, that the assem bling was not a chance one; that the Copperheads came alined, with wagon., which were arsenals in reserve, and this with a deliberate and deadly purpose. In the Edgar county disturbance the brutal and outrageous assaults of the Copperhead sheet at Paris had excited the veteran soldiers, who threatened to demolish it, but the apologies of the editor saved him and it. But the Copperheads indignant at Um Imo ceps of the soldiers in backing down the organ of treason, had determined on vengeance, and, as is sworn to in the testimony, the infamous sheriff, Wnt. S. O'Hair, of Edgar county, secretly collected one hundred armed Copperheads from (Mew, Clark, and Edgar counties. impudently calling them in the se cret missive a posse comitatus. The gallant soldiers had seen rebels before, and a cleaning out and rapid flight of the miscreants took place. One of them, named Canady, was captured, says the Paris Beacon: The sworn statement of Canady was taken by a notary public. He declared that Sheriff O'Hair had sent for these men to come to Paris in squads of three or four, without arms, their guns to be brought in a wagon, and Herded unfit occasion called for their use; that a ergA m are!;:t g i s lf ea stitt i O l t p le g t::: b egg r e% or Paris—among others, F Amos Green, and, we be lieve, Jonathan Mayo was mentioned in this con nection.

PENDLETON, of Ohio, who yesterday moved to reconsider the vote by which the House disagreed. to , the Senate's amendment to the bill organizing the Territorial' Government of Montana, and appointed a committee of conference thereon, said his object was to call attention to the oharamter of the amendment, to give the Rouse an opportunity to adhere to the provisions of the bid as it passed the Rouse. The Senate amendment was Intended, and he thought it was so admitted, to give negroes the right to vote In the Territory at the first election. It Was an amendment different front the provisions in any bill heretofore passed, organizing .a Terra°. rid Government. It struck out the words "white male inhabitants,” and inserted o Male citizens of the United States, without restrictions as to color," and this amendment was adopted by the Senate. The attention of that body was milled to the feat that the Supreme Court had decided that no negro could be a citizen of the United States. Bat it was Rll.l3otaletd that this decision - was wrong, and would be disregarded. Lie wanted the gentlemen to under stand that, for the first time, an effort was to be made by the Federal Government to Pleee whites and negroes on a political equality in the Terri tories. Congress has passed tinae July 4th, Mi. six hike organizing Territories, each providing that all white male Inhabitants resident in toe Territory shoind be qualified electors, The chairman of the Committee on Territories had followed this pre. cedent in the case of Montana, but the Senate bald stricken out that clause, and inserted an amendment permitting negroes to vote. We were making rapid pregreas beyond the positions laid down three years, ago, when the Republican party came into power. Axe Black People Citizens': He dembed to call the attention of the House to this subject, so that they may, by their vote to-day, determine whether they were prepared Ikeasionate- Dance itr He did not say agree to a course of legit'. Winn which will end in giving negroes the same political rights as White men in the Territories. He repeated, be wanted the House to decide whether it Will adhere to its former action or not. If it shall reconsider the vote of yesterday, he would move to adhere, and then the Senate must recede, or lose the bill. Mr. BROOMALL, of Penney/vsnis, inquired whether the gentleman believed nevem are citizens of the United States. Mr. PENDLEroN replied, if he had the deterini• nation of the question, he would have very little cifficulty in arriving at the conclusion that negroes have no right to vote, but this does not depend upon big opinion. NIL BROOMALL asked whether or not the Su preme Court had determined negroes are not citizens of the United States. - Dlr. PENDLETON replied, the Court had so de termined, and asked whether Mr. Bropmall and his Republican friends bowed to that decision. If the gentleman did, and could speak authoritatively for his party, there would be little difficulty in the case. Mr. DitOOM ALL replied be had no right to speak for his party ; but he would ask, in return, whether the Cyurt had not decided, to the gentleman's satis faction, that negroes are not citizens of the United States, and whether he is not willing to let that de• °Won alone Mr. PENDLETON asked whether the gentleman thought It had been so decided. Mr. BROOMALL replied be had so read. Mr. PENDLETON said it had been so decided, but that Attorney General Rdes had advised the pc,. litical departments that the deeision was wrong, and advised than to art upon his opinion. Mr. BROOMALL said, as the gentleman seemed to be satisfied with the decision of the Supreme Court, he hoped the gentleman would vote with him. Mr. PENDLETON wished to know whether the gentleman was satisfied with that decision. Mr. BROOMALL replied, if he were called to re view the opinion, be would inquire whether such animals were citizens, Mr. PENDLETON repeated this wee the first time it was sought to incorilbrateeuch a provision in a territorial bill. He wished gentlemen to know he wished a reconsideration, in order to get a test vote, that the Republican party might show the sincerity of their oft repeated declaration, that they were not in favor of negro equality. Mr. BRAMAN, of Michigan, said it occurred to him the gentleman's argument was against the ac tion of the Senate. He did not propose to discuss the question whether it was expedient to give the elective franchise to the colored race, but wanted the Rouse to understand the question now pending. The Committee on Territories bad reported a bill organizing the Territory of Montana, and provided that all free white male citizens of the United States shall be entitled to vote. The bill was sent to the Senate, who struck out the word "white," and it was asserted by the gentleman that the effect of the Senate amendment was to let colored men vote. He would not Inquire whether this was the effect or not, or whether such legislation was inexpedient, but it was known the Rouse bad disagreed to the Senate amendment, thus non-concurring, and ap• pointed a committee of conference. The House had paused a bill excluding colored voters, and the Senate had amended the bill so as to give them this privilege. As the question now stood, the 'Rouse had refused to consent that colored men should vote. The argument of the gentleman was there'ore op posed to the position he has assumed. The gentle. man's argument was against the action of the Senate. In conclusion, Mr. Beaman moved to lay . Mr. Pendleton's motion to reconsider on the table, which was agreed to—yeas 63, nays 49. On motion of Mr. SPAULDING, of Ohio, the Committee on the Judiciary was instructed to in quire into the expediency of so amending existing laws with regard to jurors in the . qederal courts as to secure fair and impartial trials therein, and to re port by bill or otherwise. The House resumed the consideration of the Ra ritan and Dela were Bay Railroad bill. Mr. SW EAT, of Maine, said he sincerely believed the principles involved in that bill were unwarrant• ed by the Constitution of the United States and the laws of the country. He thought the CA mittee on Military Affairs had made a report in favor of declaring these reads post and military routes, which could not be sustained by the fasts and the law. He considered this subj.ot on its merits alone, for he believed the man wno could not rise above political questions on the matter now at issue could not be an honest legislator. His only feeling was to see the right prevail; he was earnestly desirous for the sums, of our arms, and to avail o, rseives of all proper means for the transportation of troops and munitions of war, but be could see no military necessity for the passage of this bill. The President now has the power, under the law of 1862, to take and use any railroads for military purposes. The subject went over, and the House went into Committee of the Whole upon the State of the Union, and resumed the consideration of the national bank bill. National Banks Mr. HOOPER„ of Massachusetts, offered an amendment to the forty-fourth section, providing that any bank or banking association now organized in pursuance Of the laws of any State under articles of association which prohibit opecifted changes there in, may be changed or converted into a national banking association without any change in the articles of association as may be prohibited by the same, and it. directors at the time of the change may continue in office, and their- successors may from time to time be appointed or elected in the manner provided in the articles of association. Mr. HOOPER said the New York Bank of Com merce desired to come under this law. It had a capi tal of $10,000,000, and had done more to sustain the Government than all other Institution. Mr. BROOIVIALL was willing to let all the State banks become National Banks, but he wanted them to cease as the former when they became the latter. He did not want such political miscegenation as to make it difficult to tell what they were. Mr. STEBBINS remarked that this bill was in tended to do nothing more than to make the present bank law effective, anti he should therefore vote for It. But at the Same time he favored the pending amendment, as without it the Bank of Commerce could not come under the law. Mr. ALLEY, of Maseachusette, opposed select ing out the Bank of Clommerfik - and offered an amendment to extend the principle of non.individual liability to all other banks organized under this act. During the debate the same gentleman remarked that Mr. Hooperls amendment was making an Injudl• Mous distinction, and argued that the provisions of the bill should be applicable alike to all banking in stitutions. Finally, Mr. Hooper's amendment was adopted by a vote of 99 against 46. Mr. WILSON, of lowa, moved to amend the sec tion providing for the redempption of note., so as to confine it to New York, Philadelphia, an d Boston, which was rejected. Without concluding the action on the bill, the committee rose, and, at 6.25. the House adjourned. The Magazines. The American reprint of Black:noodle MolaNiltd has reached us through Mr. W. B. Zieber, South Third, street. In the present number, the real and the im eginative are pretty evenly balanced. The excellent Irish story of "Tony Baker," which we take leave to affiliate upon Charles Lever, is sandwiched be. tween a grave speculation on "The Fleet of the Fu ture" and a serious dissertation on "The Economy of Capital." To these succeed an able review of a• French work on the Italian War of 1869, in which the wrifer treats of " Louis Napoleon as a General," and argue. that, though he won &Plinks, and other battles, he did not exactly win them In the right way,—whioh is precisely what old Mdlas, the Aus trian, said of the other Napoleon, half a century earlier. He sutras up as follows: "Anxious, then, to do jirstic's to Louis Napoleon's abilities, we must admit, after deducting the advantagel he possessed in better troops, better weapons, more experiemied generals, and irresponalble authority, that he showed remarkable talent for conducting military operations. His movements were far froM rapid, but they were very complete. His orderly and careful advance on the morning of the 24th July, so different from the straggling array of the Austrians, was a. main cause of the victory of Solferino. And, setting aside the policy of the flank march to the Ticino, the march itself, though not faultless, was reasonably well conducted; while the preliminary feint and movement across the Pe were musellently arranged• He showed, too, a right judgment in direotlng the mass of his force against Solferino. All these feats were surprising in a man who not only then first held a command, but who then' lint saw war, and who began his military fiercer with directing two great armies."

TRH ATLANTIO.—A. project of a novel and important character has been for some months past Un der discussion; and we are informed that a company is now in course of formation with a view to piece the proposal in a practical shape. It is intended to station, fifty miles west of Scilly, a ship, bearing a floating light, containing stores of provisions, and connected by an electric cable with the shore. It is considered that thus early news may he conveyed, homeward ships may receive their orderi whilst at sea, and much suffering. privation and loss of life be prevented. The work as to bel carried out by Moore's patent for an improted me thod of anchoring ships and attaching electric cables. The idea is seriously entertained, and, if carried out, might prove of much commercial value. We should be sorry to pronounce it to be impossible, or to throw an obstacle in the way of its accomplish. meat ; but if Moore's patent min securely moor n vessel amid the wild waves of the broad and deep Atlantic, and can secure easy communication at all times with passing ships and with the shore, the in vention must be ranked as one of the most marvel /OUs of the age—Western (Eng.) Morning NM'. Alt INCREDIBLII BARBARITY.—The chivalry of the South has exhibited a fresh proof of their boasted devotion to woman. Not content with giving her the precedence in the ball-room and by the fireside, they would have her take the advance on the battlefield also. These brave Southrons rally valorously behind a woman's skirts. A. tele gram from St. Louis interne UI that, at the late fight at Paducah they put tlieir Mimeos females forward as the bu lwark of defence against a storm of Federal bullets, and, with a sharpness which even a Yankee would not have practiced, availed themeelves of a flag of truce to restore their shat tered lines. In Southern parlance this may be chivalrous, but the world will unite in pronouncing such atrocity fiendish, and the annals of civilized warfare will be searched in vain for a parallel for so barbarous an outrage upon woman. We trust that, for the honor of humanity, the despatch will prove to be unfounded. • FIUME( ATTBMPT TO DRSTROT Lirn.—Yester. day morning a man named Francis S.

Broadway, Walton was given in charge of Officers Sparklin and 0. R. Barnes.

Henri of generalizing from a single state. meat sometimes causes ludicrous misrepresentations. Thus it was stated in the newspapers some time ago, as a good joke that an old lad y refu s ed to tough a newspaper containing the Pres ident's message be cause she had heard that he had the small-pox. This story went to France, whereupon Cielignanni (Paris) Messenger solemnly announces that di so stupid are the lower orders of the United States that tiny hesitated to take the journals containing the President's menage from the poshoftlea, fearing that they might catch the smallpox, under which the writer of the message was reported to be suffering." Wiz]) Duess.—Wild ducks are said .to be as abundant now in Middle and Back rivers as at any time during the fall and winter. On Wednesday theto were immense flocks in both, but no sport was afforded for the gunners in consequence of the tide having submerged all the blinds.
