DllMary Schools.
We have had several private attempts a
military schools in this State, none of which
ever succeeded to an extent to make their influ
ence felt in the knowledge thus proposed to be
inculcated- In this city, it will be remembered,
we had a military school, which for a time
excited our wonder and surprise, andfrom which
some of those who have shed honor on Harris
burg during the war with rebellion, derived
their military education, Still this miss private
enterprise. It did not last long, simply because
those who should have patronized, opposed
their preltidices to its success, and refused its
recognition so sturdily that it failed after a
struggling exatence of only a few year& The
importance of giving to the youths of
country more ample Opportunities for Inaba:to
tion in engineering and in military affairs le
obvious. France has for sixty years or more
given especial attention to this branch of edu
eation, even before the time of Napoleon I.—
The several States of the Union should adopt te
similar policy, independently' of West Point
Academy, which can educate only a limited
number. Virginia has had a military school
of celebrity at Lexington for many years. Now
Massachusetts is about to follow -the example
—We would be glad to see all the other States
where the enterprise can be made practical, do
something in this matter ; and we would be
glad, more particularly, to see Pennsylvania
move toward the establishment of a preat mill
taryr school, where instruction in engineering
could be made of vast benefit to this State; even
it'the knowledge was never hereafter required
. to'assist in conducting any great military opera
tion in which the State . might be called to par
ticipate for the defence of its own peace or the
preservation of the National . Government to
which it owes allegiance. If we bad had a
better knowledge of the science of war, the
rebellion would not have lasted two years. The
want of this knowledge has resulted in the
waste of the material of war, in the decimali
zation of our armies, in our failure to win
victories. In . view of this' fact, then, every
State should at once prepare to organize some
system of military education. As an example
of what Massachusetts is doing we submit the
following resolutions recently adopted by the
Legislature of that State :
"Be olved, Toat his Excellency, the Gover
nor, be and by and with the advice and consent
of the Council, is authorised to appoint three
persons to be commissioners to inquire into the
etpediency of establishing an` academy for the
instruction of young men in mathematics, civil,
and cavalry drill and tactics, and that said
commissioners report a design for each an insti
tution, the mode of establishing the same, the
expense thereoka plan for its support, the
• number of pupils to be accommodated, their
age at entering the institution, the amount of
camp duty, and the length of the academic
course, worst provision should be made for the
support r f the pupils, the equivalent to be ren
dered therefor, and whether the Commonwealth
has any, and what property or resource availa
ble for the endowment of such an institution.
'!Resolved, That said commissioner*. make a
report or their doings to the Governor, on or
bef ,re the first day of November next,and they
shall receive suer canpenaation for their ex
penses as the Governor §nri Council may direct.
"Approved April 28, 1883."
bombshell irethe Vallandigham Camp.
Hon. Hugh J. Jewett, two years since Demo
cratic candidate for Governor of Ohlo, was in
vited to address a meeting at Barnesville, Bel
mont county, on the 30th ult., but, having
been confined to his bed during the previous ten
days, he was obliged to decline, but he sent
greeting to the meeting in a patriotio epistle,
in which he says that "elm Government may
nit be administered as.we would administer it,
had we the power; many things are done which
are shocking to our ideas of a free people and a
republican form of government, and in bad
faith to the loyal sentiment of the' country,
North and South, who confided in the early
pledges of the Administration; all these are
evils which we must endure; they cin be reme
died; but a once &wired Mien, a surrenderei Gov
ernment, eannot be reclaimed. This is an evil which
cannot be reiairtd, and which the must avert, and can
only avert by supporting and sustaining the govern
meta, rtgardless of its policy, rely upon the people,
through the ballot box, to put all things to
rights."
With Democrats entertaining such views, we
have the warmest sympathy. The Administra
tion may have made mistakes—mistakes which
men who are not infallible are all likely to
slake. Because such is the fact, however, is no
reason that the government should be destroyed.
No evil could possibly overtake us, so great as
that of the destruction of the government.
That evil has been imminent for two, years, and
to escape it successfully, we must support the
Administration, support the government, which
literally means in both eases, that we most put
down the rebellion. The idea of fighting the
rebellion and opposing the government,os
aim
ply preposteions. It is a Democratic &ion
which means treason. It is a cowardly subter
fuge on the part of those who desire to save
their own; necks while they are contributing to
a treason which has earned'death as its penalty
If we support the government, we oppose the
rebellion. If we oppose the government by
constantly assailing those who are called to
administer its powers and direct its authorities,,
we are practically contributing to the success of
rebellion. By this rule the loyally and the
patriotism of men can easily be jadgad.
In a Bad Fix
The pecuniary exemption clause of the con
script act, leaves two classes of the mean por
tion of the copperheads in a bad fix. The rich
copperhead declares that if the Secretary of
War attempts to annul that provision, he should
be seized and held &Wetly to account for his
presumption ; while the copperhead demagogue
who desires to make capital for his play and
organize a resistance to the draft, declares that
the pecuniary exemption must be annulled, or
the poor man would resist, on the ground that
all should share equally the personal dangers
of the conflict. These two interests among the
copperheads are now threatening each other. The
tight promises to have a similar result to that of
the struggle between the Kilkenny cats ; but be
this as it may, either party will be. pleased if
the government suffers by the conflict.
Meeting of Loyal Editors.
It has been suggested by some of our loyal
cotemporaries, that the loyal editors of the
State assemble at Pittsburg on the Ist of July,
ensuing, for the purpose of that interchange of
sentiment so essential to the success of the
great principles which we advocate. The mat
ter has been delayed, and little time is now of
forded to prepare for such a meeting, but we
are nevertheless in favor of securing the attend
ance of as many of the loyal editors of the State
as possible, in the locality and on the occasion
to which our cotemporaries refer. In order to
give the proposition additional force, it would
be poll* for the Chairman of the Union State
Central Committee to second the movement,
and at once issue a call or notice inviting such
an assembly to convene. By doing this, in
conjunction with the deliberations of the dele
gates to the Union State Convention, the loyal
editors of the commonwealth could deliberate
and exchange views, thrui unite on a plain
understanding, and go into the contest and win
glorious victory.
—We repeat, that we hope the Chairman of
the Union State. Central Committee will give
ibis matter some attention. He can with pro
priety make the call as suggested ; and if a fair
attendance.of the representatives of the loyal
press of the State is thus secured, we are certain
that much good will result from their delibera
tions.
Intercepted Dispatch.
A few days since a young man named Doug
lass, of Mason county, Ky., a bearer of dispatches
from Pemberton to Johnston, gave himself up.
He was frOmMason county, Illinois, and was in
the regular service at the time of the breaking
out of the war; and as he had lived in Texas,
was given the alternative of joining the Rebel
army or being hanged to a tree. He entered
the Rebel service and made great show of fidel
ity, that he might the easier effect his Escape
when an opportunity offered. The correspond
ent of the Chicago tribune gives a lengthy ac
count of his adventures, and then furnishes a
synopsis of the dispatch from Pemberton to
Johnston, which Is as follows :
An urgent demand for help. Number of re
entorcementa required, 80,000—advising retreat
if he could not bring that number upon Grant's
rear within ten days—number of troops in Vicks
burg, 18,000—on hand, thirty days rations for
the garrison, at one meal .a day—ammunition
scarce, particularly gun caps. Douglass was
further instructed to ascertain the exact num
ber of Johnston's army, and report as speedily
as possibso._ - _
- This is dated the 28th ult.; and the garrison
could accordingly brad out until the 27th inst.,
on one meal a day.
Douglass furnished the hibutts's correspond
ent with the following particulars : -
There are 18,000 fighting men in Vicksburg,
commanded by Generals Pemberton, Stevenson,
Reynolds,
Bowen, Forney, Morris, Lee and M.
L. Smith. Pemberton is chief in command,
and exceedingly unpopular. It is surmised
that he thinks of surrender. Referring to this,
Bowen said in his (Douglass') heating, "that if
Pemberton made the first movement" toward
giving up the city, he would hang him as high
as Haman." The evident policy of Pemberton
will be, when he is satisfied that all hopes 01
succor from Johnston ace gone, to break .out
through our lines on the left, and endeavor to
cut his way through to Big Black.
The damage to Vicksburg, occasioned by the
fire of our guns and mortars, is immense. He
estimates that at least one-fifth of the city is
destroyed. Up to .Wednesday at 12 o'clock,
the names of 109 women a'cd children were
reported at the Provost Marshal's office who
were killed by the explosion of our missiles in
different parts of the city. Among these is
said to have been the wife of Pemberton him
self.
The depot and court house are but slightly
injured: The jail is nearly danroytd. Tun
largest magazine, containing three-quarters of
the shot and shell in Vicksburg, is .olown up,
cones, cattle and mules are killed, and a large
number of hons-s burned.
On the day of the a•sault 2,000 were killed
and wounded, including eighteen colonels and
lieutenant c aloud's. The day after i 8 sturd iy)
Colonel. T. N. Mall; Colonel Lee Willis, Colonel
Kegley, Major Cameron, Adjutant Williams,
Adjutant Papker,, Captain Hoge and Captain
Stahl—all officers of the Texas L-gion—were
seated chatting pleas truly in the shade at the
angle of the fort opposite Logan's heavy bat
tery, when a shell from it exploded in their
midst and killed them all. Wall and Willis
were literally blown in fragments.
There are seven forts from the railroad to
Warrenton, of which Douglass could remember
the names .of but three : Fort Pemberton,
mounting 9 guts ; Fort M'Cullough, 5 guns;
anti Fort Pulaski, 4 guns. Fort Beauregard is
on the right (our right) of the railroad, and
contains but a single gun, not disabled. The
cannonade of the 23d disabled thirteen guns,
and killed and wounded many rebel soldiers.
On the 22d instant, eight Georgia and Ten
nessee regiments refused to fight, and fell back
when ordered int* the rifle pits. Louisiana,
Texas and Missouri troops are considered
able.
Tux following, copied from the Memphis Ava•
kuiche and Appeal of May 9th, 1861, is a corn•
mentary on the act of the rebel Congress to put
to death all colored men taken in our military
service. It is another evidence that the enlist
merit of colored soldiers against the Govern
ment wad in full operation before it was begun
on our eide:
Aitention, Volurdeera.—Resolved by the Com
mittee of Safety, That C. Deloach, D. B. Cook
Su d Wm. B. Greanlaw be authca ized to organize
a volunteer company, composed of our patriotic
free men of odor of the city of• Memphis, for the
'Tyke of our common defence. All -who have not
enrolled their names wltl call-st the. OffiCe Ctt
W. B. Greenlaw & Co.
W.
Iowa;
secreta P ry ..Thes, President.
CAPTAIN SPLICE, the African explorer, discov
ered a c,nutry in the heart of that heathenish
continent, in which the people had attained to
a degree of civilization unknown in Eaiope or
America. In this land the laws required the sac
rlft.eofonentau each day for the good of the State.
In roferenco to this fact, 2he Dialis of opinion that
the Kirg of 'figural might say with Hamlet:
"I must be cruel only to be kittd." Were this
custom introduced into the United States, what
gratifying results would follow! But the deaths
should not be compulsory; those untortunato
politicians who must feel that their lives are in
jurious to the welfare of the country, cannot
shut their eyes to the moral obligation of death.
We want volunteers for the Black List. Where
is the copperhead who will set his party a vir
tuous example of hari-kari? When will Charles
J. Ingersoll commit suicidal infanticide? When
will Fernando Wood, with a noble spirit of self•
sacrifice, immolate on the altar of his country
the leader of the rowdies of New York? Can it
' be possible that these men care so little for the
good of the State that they will hesitate to die?
Are they lea patriotic than the negro trthabi
tants of Ug,nuda? What ! will Governor Sey
mour, Mr. Yallandigham, and Mr. Hughes con
sent to be eclipsed by negroes? It cannot be
believed. We shall have additional reason to
congratulate the world upon the discovery of the
Nile, if it should result in the general suicide
of these conscientious gentlemen. Life is pre
cious, but then, as we all know, "it is swat to
die for one's country."
THE following from the Philadelphia aty
Rem p, messes truth and force, and is a proper
rebuke to those fault finders, who amid Presi
dent Lincoln's unparalleled responsibilities are
continually and industriously engaged in hunt
ing out something to carp at:
To FAULT Furoaas.—When you are disposed
to fled fault with the President and de cabinet,
bear it in mind that no' Administration has
been so sorely tried. The, difficulties which
have beset Mr. Lincoln at every step, would
have appalled any ordinary man. With rebel
lion at the South, disaffection at the North,
and a depleted treasury, a navy scattered to the
four corners of the earth, treason. lurking and
active 'n every department of the Government,
one half the officers of the army and navy cor
rupt and perjured, the hearts of patriots Flid
dened almost unto death, surely no President
has had his bands so full? We may well bear
with occasional short comings, in view of the
extraordinary trials which have attended the
Administration thus far. Let us be patient,
hopeful, resolute, and all will be well yet.

TEE SIEGE OF VICKSBURG
The Situation to Jule Ist...The National
Sharp.hooters...The Great Rebel Gun..
Iteeonnoissanee—Pentberton un
der Arrest and Stevenson in Command
of the Rebels.
[Special Dispatch to the Press.]
CAIRO, Juno 8.
We have news from Haines' Bluff to date o
June Ist.
Though the enemy is strongly-fortified; and
though as yet, wohaye failed in assault, we
have the town entirely einrotilided. Sherman
commands the right wing; lU'rhersort the cen
tre, and M'Clernand.the left.
The rebels dare not use any of their siege
guns on this line - of breastworks, from fear of
our sharpshooters. The • latter are entrenched
within from forty to seventy yards of the_reipl
forts - rebta. 00
acatAr They have made ingenious shelters
along the ravines And in the banks, and as
soon as a rebel gunner makes his appearance he
is picked off.
The rebels have not fired a shot in this direc
tion for several days. They have a gun, how
ever, which domineers the river. and is a pesti
lent
.to us. They call him " Whistling
Ditk." No gunboat has any business where
this terrible gun can get a shot at it. It shoots
a hall 21 feet long, steel pointed, weighing 250
pounds, can tear through our best iron clads,
and is thought. to be the lest gun of the war.
Lately we got word that Gen. Joe. Johnston
was coning with 80,000 troops to reinforce
Stevensun at Vicksburg. Gen. Grant sent Gen.
Frans Blair with seven brigades, to go forth and
,reconnoitre. We went out between the Yazoo
and Big Black to Banton, and before we got to
the email town of McCarricksburg we met the
enemy.
Our cavalry mad@ a spirited skirmish, when
the artillery and infantry came up. The 11th
and.l3thlowa were deployed_as skirmishers,
and dashed into the thick woods. Captain
21 Missouri battery, pushed to the
front and opened his howitzas on them. We
bad a running tight of three miles,
and at last
our fleet footed foe disappeared beypnd dis- .
covery. We camped for the night, and in the
morning started back to Vicksburg.
Instead of 30,000, we learned that the rebel
force was from 8,000 to 5,0.10. Over tip
roughest kind of , country we marched about
one hundred mites in 84 days. The water was
scarce and poor.
It will be same time before Vicksburg is
taken ; but it will be taken. When the rebels
do surrender, they will surrender wholly and
unconditionally. Pemberton would have ea
pitutited long am but he Is now under wrest,
and Stevenson is in command, The works
have be , n stormed with west ipravery and de
termination,,bur we have only met with repulse.
Gen. Grant w.ll besiege Vicksburg six months
before he will again attempt to storm the works
under the same circumstances. Alert's lives,
he says, are worth more than ammunition.

[Associated Press Reports.]
CHICLGII, June 11.—A special Memphis .die
patch of , the-Bth inst. says the steamer Lumi
nary, from Young's Point with dates to Friday
evening at 8 o'clock, brings the following;
General Kimball, with 3,000 men, was sent
up the 'Yazoo river to Searle, thirty miles
below Yazoo city, and arrived there on the 4th,
and learning that a reb:l force under General
Wirt Adams was not far' off, marched imme
diately to meet him.
At rt q o'clock on Thursday morning he came
up with the pickets of the enemy, and a brisk
fight ensued.lasting 30 minutes. The enemy
gave way and a total—rout ensued. Our loss
was 1 killed and 14 wounded. We captured
100 prisoners. Their loss in killed and wound
ed was considerable. The rebels were 2,000
strong.
There is no perceptible change in affairs be
fore-the enemy's woikeat ;Vicksburg.
(len. Johnston is still reported on the Big
Blitek, endeavoring to cross below the bridge,
with an army of 20,000 men. (ha Ootorhow
was watching his movement, with a sufficient
force to checkmate any demonstration he might
make.
A rumor was in circulation that Pemberton
had requestid Gra. Grant to permit the women
and children to pass the lines. Orer 300 head
of cattle and mules have been turned loose on
account of the scarcity of forage.
RUSLORS Or DISASTER
Nsw Yosz, June 11.—Rumors of disaster at
Vicksburg and Port Hudson are afloat to-day,
but we are unable to obtain any confirmation,
in the absence of which they may be set down
as canards. It is understood that advices from
Vicksburg to the afternoon of the 6th inst. have
reached Washington, but it is impossible that
they can contain anything very important or
decisive.
The reported repulse of Gen. Rinks at MI
Hudson, from Mobile on the 4th via the Rich
mond papers of the 6th, undoubtedly refer to
the action of the 27th ult., the result of which
is already known. It is quite unlikely that the
rebels could have any information from Port
Hudson of a later date than our own advices.
Post Script —No intelligence of any digester
had been received in Washington up to noon
to-day.
OFFICIAL INTSLLIOEFCII
WASHMITON, June 11.—The only information
the Government has received from Gen. Grant' e
army is up to the Bth inst., which is the latest
date. It repeats the stereotyped phrase that
the siege is steadily and satisfactorily pro
gressing.
