"Mr. Farnsworth, of Illinois , was surprised at Opeech of his 'colleague . (pr. Xoss,) 'last night. It T full of disparakedrinit of the administration while there wpa !Oiling in it reprehensive of the course of thp rebels.' We quote the above mpark, which is a . . very common reply,•by our political oppo nents, to disparaging arguments by Demo crats against the unwarrantable acts of the administration, to reprobate it. They seem to indulge in the delusion that wlien they make this reply, they have said that which is conclusive and overwhelming, and which should stop the mouth of any Dem ocrat. Do we charge the Republicans with disre garding the fundamental principles of our constitution they tell us we should confine our denunciations to the rebels.

In the first place, Democrats do not com plain that the rights of Rebels are invaded by the administration. They leave the Reb els to be dealt with by our armies in the field, who have, i (or ought to have,) a much moan prrEnssrvz way of dealing with them—the approprlate arguments to be used by our armies against the Rebels, are leaden and steel ones—bullets and bayonets. The Dem ocrats do not complain of this, but give an efficient assistance therein, when permitted. Bat the rights which they denounce the ad ministration for invasion of, ARE THEIR own rights, defended (or intended to be defen ded) by the Constitution and the laws of the land. The real Rights of Personal I.,iberty, Free Elections, Free Speech and a Free Bross. ive beg to say to our opponents when they invade their rights, (as has been done, by this Administration, times without number) it is neither a very satisfactory nor a very conclu sive to our complaints, to tell us that we should refrain from speaking "disparaging ly of the Administration." OEM If we shonid amuse ourselves, asdo our Republican and Abolition friends very fre quently, while at a safe distance, in denounc ing the "reprehensible course of the Rebels" we ask, in the first place, the chanee tliat' they will never hear of our denunciations and in the second place, if they should,' that they would probably pay but little attention to , I l•ber4.

We have never had • any faith in negro troops, not fi:ont any 40,,tudiCe iigektst them, .but•simpiy because it is noterions that the colored race ere neither as brave, endur ing, nor as enterprising as the whites, against whom they would pil i t# in bat tle. The English employ fiepOye in Vindos tan to fight the natives of that country ; but, no matter how hard pressed they are fur men, the Sepoys are never brought to -Eu rope to engage in continental wars. The reason is became soldiers of an inferior race are not to be depended upon in field fights with troops of the Caucasian race. It is noticeable that , with all the care which is taken to give the negroes better officers than the whites, they are rarely brought in to the field by our generals, but are kept for garrison duty. The following extracts front a letter dated at Port Hudson, La., which we find " in the Springfield Re publican, tell their own story ; "It was found that the physical qualifica tions of the negroes were not equal to the hardships of drill and fatigue duty, many of them having in them the seeds of old and surely and fatal diseases, brought on by the vicious habits of plantation life, and many others being yet young ;ad immature 1 'body, and marked by hereditary taints.

The frantic efforts of the Abolitionists (says the Philadelphia "Age") to create bogna States, are almost too absurd for belief: Mr. Lincoln seems evidently desirous of rivaling some of those heroes who have founded great communities. Like ZE leas, driven from Troy, he wishes to plant the seeds of a new nation, but we are afraid there is no divinity to pro tect and direct him. Emulating William the Conqueror, he made an expedition into Flor ida, but, unlike William the Conqueror,he did not get beyond the seacoast. Arkansas was his next pet ; and amid the cane-brakes, and swamps,' and de . solatiou of that country, he created a Legislature. It was loyal to the core. It represented as much as twenty thousand people, and several square miles of territory—the people being General Steele's army, and the tespitory the ground they stood on. The Legislature met, electet t two na tors, and abolished Slavery, the great ends of legislation now-a-days ; but a Confederate raid disturbed their deliberations, and they suddenly dispersed to the four winds of heaven. Virginia has made various efforts to introduce herself into the Union. A Con stitutional Convention, under the protecting care of Mr . . Ilinco:n, and supported by the refreshing odor et the contraband camps, fl I met at Alexandria. The Richmond rebel anthoraies were dethroned, • various officials appointed, and slavery abolished, of course. But after several spasmodic efforts, the Con vention died a natural death. There was no money in the treasury, and no spoils to be divided, so the patriots departed in peace.— Louisiana, we need say nothing about. Mr. Lincoln there has as many as twelve hundred voters, black, white, and mongt - el, and that is enough certainly for any oue. To South Carolina, however, was left the crowning glory of Mr. Lincoln's masterly policy. Everything progressed satisfactorily, and, in the words of the "loyal" press, the Convention was "a great success." Resolu tions were passed, and representatives to Bal kora appointed. Among them are General Saxton, the Military Governor, six negroes, three sutlers, a Paymaster and a Tax Collec tor—six whites and six Illacks, Witt} a man bearing the euphoniaus omrfe of fudti l a con traband superintendent, to give the casting vote. Being a negro teacher, he, of course, on all disputed points will decide in favor of his colored friends, so that the South Caro lina delegation will be a miracle of harmony. lik.. Lincoln's perseverance in creating new Sti4es deserves all praise. He beats Clovis, x. iipili4ec . the Great, Cnarlemagne, and that ' , Iremeind l nusly. - Bis States spring up like mushnxims—and'are about as substantial— :Banks; Sfeele, 'SeYthour, and several others, ~ ~.,. ~ ~,, , s have been kept busy in creating them, and if all others fail him, South Carolina trill not.

The New Nation, one of the ablest of the Republican papers, repudiates the Lincoln dogma,." shat opposition to the administration is opposite to the governiueut." In an able and lengthy article last week it says : "Loyalty, we need not say, is a vir tue, and disloyalty a crime, under a Republic no less than under a lifonareig. Under an absolute monarch, loyalty is obedience and devotion to the person of the monarch, who is in the state, government, and the law. To oppose him in his will, t i o refuse to support him against his enemies, foreign or-do nikeitie, is In and 'pitmahable as such. In 'a Republican state like 'ottrii, the political peoiile . of 'the nation is 'tie sovereign, and loyalty is 'obedience and devotion to the nation ; and oppo sition to its will legally expressed, or refusal to support it against its foreign or domestic eneinio ; When called upon through its constituted organs, is dia lovalt,— morally treason. * ' • *.

Stich being the facts of the case, oppositions to the measures of the administration, to its conduct of the war, its management of the national finances, its adoption of tale theories of currency, its usurpation, of powers not vested in the Executive, and ita unconstitutional method of restoring the seceded states in the Union, so far from being opposition to the government and incompatible with the interests of the nation, is. it seems to us, the duty of every citizen, and we cannot under stand that citizen's loyalty, who will not; at whatever risk to himself, oppose them by eVeiy lawful means in his power. We owe more to the nation, the government, atA the coostitution, than to any administration th4t ninni festly fails in its duty to them."

Loan Negotiatelt QEN. , SHERIOAN'S CAVALRY EX PEDITION. Pi; Suppose* pectiuntino 0040 doputrille and Charioltsvilie, Co-diperatioa with Hunter. NEW Yong, .June 15.—A special dis patch to the World, dated Washington, 14th, says : There are rumors in town to-day, that Sheridan has reached Gor donsville, on his way to join Hunter, and destroyed the Richmond and Lynch, ,iturg Railroad, one of the principal ave nues by which the rebel capital was supplied. It is understood that he will pay a visit to Charlottesville immediate ly, and accomplish all damage possible to the railroad and ,depots in his path way. He is accompanied by a large cavalry force, and is fully able to cope with any body of the enemy with which he may fall in with, It was suspected at the time Sheridan started that he would pass around the South side of Richmond and sever the Railmad communications leading ta,it, that city, but this portion of the oam, paign will probably be entrusted to Kautz, who oi:ce before raided over that territory, and is therefore familiar with the country. Since Sheridan's destination has been disclosed the importance of his move ments are made apparent. Hunter's column is intended to act vig ilantly and effectively in theterritory in which it is now engaged. His mission is understood to be not only to capture Clr rlottesville and Lynchburg, but to make a complete and thorough destruc tion of all the railroads connecting them with Gordonsville. With §,kridan's assistance he may be enabled to pene trate still further into the country and effect the capture of Danville ' It is well known that the Railroad lines leading to the rebel capital, are now taxed to their utmost capacity to supply the inhabitants of Richmond and the immense army of Lee. The people in Richmond are already suffering from short rations, and if the Railroad lines loading to the immense fief and de- Vositories in West and Soug,westm irginia and the Shenandoah Valley, are cut off, the rebels will be compelled to send away all the non-combatants, and place the city in a state of siege, The Times Washington special of the. 14th says that a Scout from the front says, Sheridan has not been heard from, and he is supposed to have reached Charlottsville on his way to Lynchburg- Latest from Sherman's Army.
