An Independent Candidate.
When a newspaper is known to be the
organ of a party its opinions obtain an im
portance entirely independent of their own
value. The sage speaking for himself has
not the weight of the fool speaking for
many. Thus it is not because that able
paper, the Wile Nation, is remarkably supe
rior to its contemporaries that we now corn.
ment vpon its course, but because we infer
that it represents a political movement
which is becoming more decided every day.
The .'rein Nation is the organ of the
friends of General FREMONT. Its editors
have indeed denied that they advocate that
distinguished gentleman for the Presidency,
but it is not to be overlooked by the most
eau:less reader of the paper that of its six
teen pages those which are not wasted
upon censure of Mr. Ltrtconrr are
sacredly devoted to enthusiastic praise
of General FREMONT. For our own part,
we Are not at all disposed to deny one
- word of this praise, and are sorry that it is
not greater than it is. The New Nation, no
doubt, is sincerely anxious to compliment
its candidate to the extreme limit of apotheo
sis, but is unfortunately ignorant of the
l y a y. General FREMONT is glorified by it
not for what he has really done for the coun
try, but for what it is said he intends to do
against it. it is as the proposed hero of a
Presldential raid upon Washington that he
has the honor to have his name emblazoned
over the standard sheet before us. As such
a hero, no man, not even General FREMONT.
will be welcomed by the people. Nor is it at
all complimentary to the General that his ad
vocates should attempt to mate him the
greater by making all our other leaders the
less. To prove that he is fit for the Presi
dency, all others are to be shown to be un
worthy of it. To such an extreme is this
argument; carried, that one who depended
on the New Nation for his information would
suppose that General FlintONT was the
only representative man in A.merica, and
that our other leaders are either ignorant,
imbecile, or treacherous. Mr. LINCOLN is
the special aversion of our contemporary,
probably because he is the most popular
of candidates; it compliments his jokes, and
regrets they are not original ; pities his
speeches, and regrets that they are ori
ginal ; condemns his policy, ridicules his
reputation, sneers at all he has done, and
denounces, with a prophetic energy we can
not too greatly admire, all that he ever will
do. In fact, it affects to consider Mr. LIN
COLN, of all men, most unfit for the Presi
dency, and congratulates its readers in every
issue that the people are becoming aware of
-it. Mr. CHASE beiig, ill its opinion, the
second choice of the country for the
highest Thee in its gift, is, of course, the
next object of its animosity, and, as Gene
ral GRANT might be persuaded by the Ile
raid to become a candidate for the nomina
tion, he is very naturally considered by
this brilliant sheet the most arrant of mili
tary impostors. In fact, it keeps in its edi
torial columns an account current between
the Lieutenant General and the United
States, in which he is debtor by Tno
nes', SHERMAN'S, and SMITH'S
the Paducah disaster, and the massa
cre at Fort Pillow, and creditor—by
What ? Vicksburg or Chattanooga ? By
neither; creditor only by the capture of
Fort De Russey It would not suit the poll
tical pt ()gramme upon which the New Na
tion is acting that General GRANT'S colossal
victories should eclipse the military career
of its own candidate. All our great men
are made dwarfs by this clever method of
electioneering, only that General FREMONT
may, by compatison, become a giant This
is a very good way to make politics piquant,
but not to put the giant in the Presidential
chair.
But we, too, it the leq".2VF;fion will not be
jealcus, would like to praise General FRS
MONT_ He is worthy to be praised ; we
like his boldness, his earnestness, his faith
in himself and the country, his radical
p3inciples, his true love of the largestliber
ty ; and, while we dissent from some of his
.:pinions, we admit their honest inspiration.
But, that action which would win him the
idolatry of the 11 - iic Xa:ion would shake our
faith in the sincerity of h.:.s patriotism. If
Gem FREMONT should commit the greatest
mistake of his life, and be persuaded to be
come an independent candidate for the Pre-
sidency, who that believes the success of the
pro-slavery Opposition party would be fatal
to the country could fail to condemn him as
one willing to risk the Union for the chance
of his own advancement ? We are posi
tively assured that there is to be a so-called
People's Convention at Cleveland, by which
the Baltimore Convention of the National
Union party is to be repudiated, and another
candidate selected. If General FREAtaNT
should consent to become this candidate,
he would do more for slavery than he hes
ever done for freedom, and would rejoice
the heart of every intelligent Copperhead in
the land. It is because the Neic Nation is
at once the advocate of General PRIVIONT
and of the Cleveland Convention that we
have taken thus much notice of its course--
notice otherwise, of course, unnecessary.
The movement has some importance, and
we wish the public to understand from the
first that this is an atternptto divide the great
Union party, which every loyal man, what
ever be his Presidential preferences, is bound
to oppose. We can have but one true candi
date, upon him we must unite, and it is by
the legitimate action of the National Union
party, through its representatives at Balti.
more, that he must be chosen. ABRAHAM
LuicoLN is, in our opinion, certain to be
. -
nominated by the overwhelming voice of
the people; but, if General FEOLMONT should
be chosen, it is hardly necessary for us now
to announce that we shall sustain him with
all cur power. Men are much but princi
ples are more ; and it would be well for the
newspal er advocate S of particular candi
dates to remember that there is no man in
the country whose. Uiumph would compen

The Campaig]g in .Louislana.
It is evident, from the full and authentic
account of the campaign in Louisiana,
which we print upon our first page to-day,
that the disasters of the Union army were
not of a kind that should discourage the
country or shake its faith in the success of
the expedition. The campaign clearly was
well planned and energetically developed,
and in the battle in which it resulted the
enemy gained but a temporary triumph. To
the disadvantage of its position our army
owed its repulse on the first day;'it was
compelled to attack with inferior forces,
and from the nature of the ground neither
the artillery nor cavalry could be made
thoroughly effective. Something must be
also blamed - upon the panic which the ca-
Yalu originally cause& There is no longer
any doubt, however, that the second day of
the battle fully retrieved the losses of the
first, and that a victory was won which,
though not decisive of the campaign, is at
least encouraging and complete. The enemy
were routed, and the entire army earned
glory, enough to redeem the conduct of a
part of it in the first day' a unequal struggle.
The incidents of the field are exceedingly
interesting, and we are glad to, give our
readers the first complete account of this
important campaign.

The Massacre at Fort Pillow.
SenatorWasorr, of Marsachusette, received the
following letter from • lieutenant colonel in the
army in Tennessee:
---, April 16.
An officer under my orders has just returned from
Memphis. lie was on the steamer Platte Valley,
Which stopped, under flag of truce, at Fort Pillow,
alter the capture of that post, and has given me a
history of the massacre and the circumstances at
tending it. The attack was commenced at 8% A. M.,
on the morning of the 12th inst., by the rebels, under
Chalmers, 2,000 strong. Two attacks were made and
repulsed.
Major/300th, commanding, wax succeeded by Major
Bradford, both of the Tenneaace cavalry, isth regi
ment. A f ter the second attack, Forrest arrived with
a large force, making in all 7,000 men. He took
command, and immediately cent a flag of truce, do•
manning a surrender.
During the truce Forrest moved is forces, Under
cover of the banks of a ravine, MIME a few yards of
the ditch. The surrender being refused, in a mo
ment the rebels swarmed Over tne ditches into the
work, out of this ravine. Our men, overpowered,
threw down their arms and begged for quarter; bet,
during nearly an hour, they were palled out of every
hiding-place and murdered. Many had five or more
bullets through them.
All the negroes, Ist Tennessee Heavy Artillery
276 in number, and all their officers, were massacred.
There were 250 white soldiers, 13th Tennessee Ca
valry, and a litimber of catcalls, who took refuge in
the fort. Of these only 120 were saved, prisoners
and wounded. Only four officers remained alive.
Of these, DirjOr Bradford was murdered the same
night.
neglected to aay that three negroes escaped on a
raft, and some halt dozen hut in the bluff. Sqme of
these last were shot during the time the flag of truce
was flying, as they attempted to reaon tne boat.
They threatened death to all Tennesseans who
joined our army, and to all negroes. Almost Immo.
diately alter the fight, Forrest and his gang left.
Chalmers remained, and with some of the rebel offi
cers went on the Platte Talley.
There, shame on them for it, some of the officers
oh our army so far forgot decency as to drink with
Chalmers and hie brother scoundrels ; indeed, went
so far that the captain of the boat became disgusted,
and got his boat off: During the fight, gunboat No.
2 did good work. The flag of truce, landed under
protection of gunboat No. 13, at the request of
Chalmers, who asked our people to bury the dead
and take care of the wounded.
These people, Air. Wilson, need a terrible lesson.
Under the Dame of chivalry they perpetrate ants
that would disarm's a Pejee or Comanche. During
the war I have heard many citizens openly advocate
this very manner of warfare. I hope they may be
gratified. I write to you as a man whose awe of
chivalry (?) will not prevent your advocacy of stem
measures of justice and retaliation.

THE FIRST DAY OF THE BATTLE
The first battle took place on the 7111, in which the
Union cavalry, after skirmishing with the enemy
and driving them for fourteen miler, until they got
two miles beyond Pleasant Hill, came upon twenty
hve hundred rebel cavalry, posted In a strong po
sition, under General Greene. They were charged
Upon by the Federal cavalry, and, after a spirited
contest, driven off the field. Our losses were about
forty killed and wounded ; that of the enemy about
as heavy.
THE SECOND DAY'S BATTLE,
On the Bth, Col. Gandrum'e brigade of infantry,
with the cavalry, pressed forward, and finally met
the rebels in atrong force under Kirby Smith, Dick
Tay/or, Mouton, Green, and Price, With from
eighteen to twenty two thousand men. There well
back skirmishing, and finally the rebel" came on in
force, Generals Rubio and Ransom being upon the
Held. Franklin was
sent for, but before he came up
the rebel successes had been great. They made
desperate charges in mans, and were desperately
resisted.. The losses on both aides were frightful.
Finally, after Franklin had Come up, the whole
Federalrforce was driven back three and a half miles,
but the enemy were eheaked, with fearful slaughter,
by two brigades under Gen. Emory. Wight ended
the contest. The Federal' were under Banks,',Reu
tom, Stone, and Lee. Many gum were lost. On
the rebel aide it is known that General Mouton was
killed.
THE THIRD DAY'S BATTLE A UNION VIC-
By falling back General Banks had effected a
junction with General A. J. Smith, and arrange•
tient* were made to receive the enemy with effect.
General Effiory had charge of the first line of battle,
with Generals McMillan. Dwight, and others. Be•
bind Emory, posted in a hollow, were General
Smith's forces. Skirmishing was kept up until
&Mit Ave o'clock in the afternoon, when the rebels
came up in their old style in masses, in three lines
of battle. Our batteries opened upon them with
terrible effect. The leth Army Corps was gradually
forced back. The first line of the rebels had been
entirely, broken up by Emory's resistance, but the
remaining two pressed on.
THE FINAL CHARGE.
Now came the grand cetip de main. The nib, on
arriving at the top of the hill, suddenly filed over
the hill, and passed through the lines of General
Smith. We must here mention that the rebels were
now in but two lines of battle, the first having been
almost annihilated by General Emory, what re
mained having been forced back into the second
line. But these two lines name on exultant and
sure of victory.
The first passed the knoll, and, all heedless of the
long line of cannons and crouching forms of as brave
men as ever_trod mother earth, pressed on. The
ascend line appeared on the crest, and the death sig.
nal was sounded. Words cannot describe the awful
effects of this discharge. Seven thousand rifles, and
several batteries of artillery loaded to the muzzle
with grapeend centiliter ' were tired simultaneously',
and the whole centre of the rebel line was crushed
down as a field of ripe wheat through which a tore
nado had passed. It is estimated that one thousand
men were burled into eternityior frightfully mangled
by this one discharge.
No the Was &ell them to recover their good
order, but General Smith ordered a charge, and his
men dashed rapidly forward, the boys of the 19th
joining in. The rebels fought boldly and despe
rately back to the timber, on reaching which a large
portion broke and fled, fully two thousand throwing
aside their arms. In this charge Taylor's battery
was retaken, as were also two of the guns of Dims
battery, the Parrott gun taken from us at Carrion
Crow last fall, and one or two others belonging to
the rebels, one Of which was considerably shattered,
besides seven hundred prisoners. A pursuit and
desultory fight was kept up for three miles, when
our men returned to the field of battle.
And thus ended this fearful and bloody struggle
for the control of Western D011t.14135.

Death of Captain 'Musser.
FORTRESS WrONBOR, April V.—Advice' from Now

General Butler has sent the army gunboats into

and aid the Davy vtsseis to destroy the rebel ram.
Admiral Lee has also sent a gunboat to replace the

WAMINCITON, April 23... The Navy Department
has received the following information of the de.
s' ruction of the Southfield : Apout 5.80 P. M., April
17, Fort Gray, above Plymouth, was attacked by
the rebels, from a battery of six field•pieees, on a
sand bark some thousand yards up the HIM. Lieu
tenant CoMmander Firmer despatched the Cares to
communicate with the Whitehead, which was doing
picket duty up the river. In passing by the rebe l
battery she received a shot through her port gang.
way, killing two and woundingsteven men.
The firing on the Coa ceased about nine o'clock,
and the Ceres returneM that time At early dawn
on Monday the enemy charged upon Fort Gray and
were repulsed. The Bombshell, an army gunboat,
in command of Acting Ensign Tames B. Stolle%
steamed up the river to communicate with Fart
Sherman, and sank at the wharf,
Later in the day the enemy appeared in force in
the rear of the town, and at sunset commenced a
vigorous attack on Fort William and Fort Wessell,
at which time the Miami and Southfield, previously
chained together, were east Zoom. The Southfield
steamed up the river to protect Fort Wessell, while
the Miami dropped down and shelled the enemy in
front of Fort William,
During the evening the enemy assaulted Fort
Wessell, and were reputed three times, the Sout
field thiowing shell among them. About 10.30 P. M.
the Southfield dropped down the river, and reported
to Lieutenant Commander F/urzer, who ordered the
vessels to be lashed together with hawsers, the
Southfield being on the port side of the Miami.
About midnight the Whitehead came down the
Caeble, came alongside of the Miami, and reported
the rem coming down.
At 5 o'clock A. M., on Tuesday, the rain dropped
down alongside the Miami, under cover of a shade
of trees, and, when near, the ram went obliquely
across into the starboard bow of the Southfield.
The guns bad been firing all the previous evening
at the enemy on shore, and were loaded with shell,
which there was not time to draw. Lieut. Elusser
fired the first shell, and, on its bursting, some frag•
men% either from that or the Southfield's shells,
rebounded, the fragments piercing his chest, face,
and skull, which caused his death, also wounding
the following officers and men: Acting Ensign
Thomas G. Hargis, Acting Third Assistant En.
gineere Harrington and Lowe, six or eight men,
though none mortally. Upon the approach of the
ram, the Southfield fired at her, but the prow of
the ram running into the Southfield clawed her to
fill with water, and she sank inside of fifteen mi
nutes. The forward lashings were parted by the
pressure of the ram between our vessels, and the
eiter-ones were cut, and as many as could get on the
Miami did so, when the Miami retired, and was
fired at a short distance by the rani, the speed of
which was considered slow, making but four knots
per hour. The Miami threw solid shot at her as she
retired.
Some of the men of the Southfield took to the
small beats, and were picked up by the Whitehead
and Ceres. The Ceres was despatched to Newborn
immediately, with the body of Plummer. The officers
missing ol the Southfield were Acting Master Wm.
B. Newman, Acting Ensign Thomas B. Stokes,
Acting Second and Engineer Wm. F. Goff; Acting
Third Assistant John A.Strieby, Acting Blasters
Nate George W. Pratt, and Paymsueteroa Olerk Geo.
W. Brown.
Some of the officers and men of the Southfield
may have been captured, but molt have escaped.
Few or none were probably /oft. The Miami is un
injured.
The ram is thought not to have used her guns
whilst under the bowe of the Miami cud Southfield,
nor could our , guns then bear on her. The shell fired
at her wart when she approached.

WE ARE GLAD to see that the President intends
to retaliate for any outrages on our priaoners of
war at Fort Pillow. These measures are severe,
but war knows no gentleness. The measures of
peace are always more agreeable to contemplate,
and one of the molt popular measures today is a
measure for a full suit of spriog clothing, at Charles

NO PERSON can feel well while a costive habit of
body prevails, and no one can expect to erjoy health
permanently who permits it, for it is contrary to the
economy of the system, and gives rise to a goodly
proportion of the Ws which afflict the human race.
To neglect it, therefore, is to insure 11l health of
greater or less duration ; yet, in attempting its re
moval, diserimination with regard to the remedies
to be used is requisite. Tiolent purgatives temperer!.
ly remove obstructions, weaken the bowels, and re
duce the strength of the patient, and are followed
usually by greater constipation, rendering another
and another dose necessary, until even the strongest
purgative. low their Wee, and the patient, condi
tion becomes deplorable. What is reqttired is a
gentle purgative, one having some action on the
liver, and one that can be taken daily without im
pairing the strength of the patient or injury to the
system, until the tendency to constipation is re-
MOVee. But few remedies have been found to meet
these requirement., and of these few probably none
have been so successful, as demonstrated by many
years' use, as Dr. D. JAYNE% SANATIVE PILL&
They are usually taken every night at bed-time,
causing, in proper dose., no inconvenience during
the night, and - producing no sickness or unpleasant '
effect during the day, so that persoo" may follow
their usual avocations, whether of business or plea
eure,,in the same manner as it they had not taken
the Pill.. Their good erect will begin to be obvious
after a week or two's use, particularly in greater
clearness of mind and an increased energy and dispo•
MU= to work and to enjoy life, and their continued
use in the restoration of health to the patient.
