Monday Morning, June 10,1802.
MN OW BREGRINRIIIGN LRADERS AND ORGANS,.
the real authors and abetters of this rebellion,
change their blandest cries to suit their trea
sonable purposes. Yesterday they gave sym
pathy to traitors by guaranteeing, to them the
protection of a Constitution and laws which
they bad renounced , and trampled into the'
dust. Today they endeavor to stir up revolt
ID the north by appealing to the men in the
ferhiral army to lay down their arms, and by
also urging the tax payers to refuse the support
of the government. What is this but treason
—the treason which has characterized . the
course cff‘the Patriot during thisentire struggle.
Nor hist it stOPped'at these attempts to arouse
the resistance of its own poor followers. Its
nuforturiatereference to the action of Napoleon
in attempting i to suppress a rebellion during
his Consulship, shown its determination to
force a falsehood on the people, whenever such
systleehood promises to serve the purpose of
widening the breach between the north and
the sonth, and thus prolonging tbe bitter strife
that has sprung from democratic misrule and
corruption. Why did not the Patriot also
state while it was putting so, much stress on
thefactithatNapoleon had issued a proclamation
offering certain refractory loyalists, "anneaty
for the past and protection for the future,"
that Abraham Lincoln, in a proclamation is-
sued immediately after , his inauguration, offered
the rebels terms of peace and protection, if
they returned to their allegiance in a certain
time. To mention this fact, would have been
to sustain the truth of history, and such a course
is opposed to the 'action of locofocoism. But
the President did issue such a proclamation,
and such partisans as those who control. the
Breckenridge organs of the Patriot ilk, ridiculed
its force and appropriateness. The dongh-faceB
afire north made use of that proclamation to
verify the assurances which they had given
the. southern Democracy, that resistance, to
Lincoln would secure the overthrow of the
government aqg the consequent triumph of the
rebellion. It Ars thus that the war was pro
longed, prolonged on the representation of the
'Democratic party of the north, that a ma
jority of the people of the free states would
take up arms at a given signal, and aid
the south in any attempt it might make to
overthrow the national government. Had this'
not been the case, the rebellion would never
have been precipitated. Had not just such char
latans as those who control the Patriot pledged
theassistance of the Breckenridge faction, trea
son would to-day have been confined to the pet
ty boastings of the fire-eaters. And yet we hear
these men daily talking about prolonging the
war. The people are !resulted by appeals on
the subject of a taxation which grew out of the
necessities of Democratiocorruption. We sub
mit, whether such audacity does not exceed
the treason of the dough-faces.

A i' INDICATION
Major-General in a despatch dated
the let instant, alluded to General Casey's Din
vision as having behaved in a manner disert4
table to themselves and dangerous to the
country. The preferment of such a charge,
filled the country with indignation, and at the
time we felt that our good old Commonwealth
was disgraced, because we understood that Gee.
Casey's Division containctin Pennsylvania bri
gade. It seems now that General M'Clellan
was mistaken, and that , he was misinformed.—
We will not insist that a Commanding General
should not make mistakes of this character, in
volving the reputation of our soldiers at home
and the fair fame of the army abroad, bat we
have a right to ins it thap i those in anthor i ity
should be stire,of their fa% before they hastily
place upon the record charges sufficient to dis
grace the name of the bravest soldier that ever
stood up in battle.,
We give to Gen. McClellan's retraction and
explanation of these charges the prominence
which his despatch deserves, and we trust that
hereafter he will be more loth to condemn and
less hasty to form conclusions from, informa-
Mon that he does not fully know to be corned

Hon. E. AL Stanton, Beeritary of War :
My despatch of the Ist iust , stating' that
Gen. Casey's division, which was •in' the first
line, gavaway unaccountably and discreditably,'
was based upon official statements made to me
before I arrived upon the, field' of battle, and
while I was there; by several commanders. From
statements made to me subsequently, by Gen.'
Casey and Naglee, I am induced to believe that
portions of the division behaved well, and made
a most gallant stand against superior numbers,
but at present the accounts are too conflicting
I to enable me to discriminate with certainty.—
When the facts are clearly ascertained, the ex
ceptional good conduct will be properly ac
knowledged.

TSB' ULTRA. BABCKENRIZOIS AIDVER.BIiTs who
broke loose from (he Democratic party, for the
purpose of making a pretext for the precipita
tion of rebellion, with a few Doughus men who
failed to make.their Douglasism profitable with
the present administration, seem to be acting
in concert in their stacks on John W. Forney.
The writer of these paragraphs esteems Cul.
Forney amply able to defond himself, but be
cannot refrain from alluding to the fact of these
attacks, if only to give what he believes to be
the motive of those assailing a gentleman in
whom the country now reposes so much confi
dence. The fact that John W. Forney opposes
the slaveholdurs' rebellion, has of course ren
dered him odious to the Breckenridge Demo
cracy ; and the fact that he is unwavering in
that opposition, regardless of the friendships he
may forfeit, proves the disinterestedness of his
actions, and should put to shame those who at
tempt to prejudice his position before the
American people. In many points of politics
we do not agree with Cole Forney, and perhaps
when party lines are again drawn, we may find
ourselves opposed to each other, yet this does
not deter us from expressing our , high regard
for his personal and professional acts during the
bloody crisis through which we are now passing.
From the hour that rebellion was signalled
from the federal capital, by the withdrawal of
Senators and Representatives from their. seats
in Congress, Col. Forney devoted all his great
energies and brilliant talents to the cause of
the country. Re renounced his party, yielded
his politics, gave up his preferences, and chal
lenging thus the admiration of true men, was
among the first to organize that great union
movement which' is now doing so much to
second the armies of the government In the field.
Those who abuse him, do so because they envy
his success ; and those who envy that success,
endeavored to achieve a similar triumph by tie
very baseness which they now ascribe to hini.
Their'abuise, then, is not to be wondeied at,
though it must continue to excite the disgust
of honest men.
So far as .regards the man, iavolving his per
sonal integrity and the" 'attribrites Which can
alone command the sincere respect of men, Col.
Forney is the superior of all his assailants. If
it were safe for the men who attack the Secre
tary of the Senate to applaud Jeff. Davis, those
attacks would never have been made. But as
the dirCeating dough-faces must have an outlet
to their sympathy' for traitors, some of them
would actually colapse If they had not Col.
Forney to abuse. By•this rule, then, we judge
the assailants of loyalDemoorats, who have
devoted themselves to the defence of their
country.

vation of the people of the North. The intel
ligence that our factodes had been closed, and
that women and children in our great cities
were begging for bread, was received by them
with fiendish shouts.
' They drew the wrath of Heaven upon their
own heads, and they are now suffering the mi
series they invoked upon their innocent coun
trymen of the North.' Let this war be pro
longed or brief, thegreater portion of the South
cannot be spared frOm famine. The people are
already impoverished, and they most be Eel
by the hand of charity: To famine, we fear,

crime.

TRADE REVIVING
The Late Union Demonstration
BRUTAL MURDER BY TRH REBELS
Baserncoaa, June 12.
The boat which arrived this morning brought
the following advices.
Nortrorx, Jane 12.—An expedition was made
to Deep creek yesterday by Major Dodge, who
found a rebel poetoffice, which had been the link
of communication between this place and Rich
mond.
The establishment was broken. up. 'Deep
creek is 16 miles south of Norfolk."
The feeling between the military authorities
and the citizens of the place is improving, and
at a most satisfactory rate.
Gen. 'Allele has been offered the use of a floe
house by the Union men, free of rent, and tbe
offer has been accepted.
Truie is reviving. A dozen - Union steamers
are in front loading and dischatging.
The Union demonstration y ed. rday was not
eo successful as was anticipated on account of
the absence of Gov. Pierpont, Senator (latrine
and others who were expecte to address the
meeting. A very large .procession assembled
however on the dock, and on .learning that
the spe akers were not coming, marched to
Ashland Hall where an elegant address was
made by A. Thomas Faq., of lowa. Great en
thusiasm was manifested.
Capt. Joannes Watson, of Portsmouth, has
received authority to raise tv regiment of vol
unteers for the army.
servers., June 12.—C01. Spear, who has•been
scouring the country between this place and
Blackwater river for some days past, brought
in last night a rebel Colonel named Cope
land, and two citizens belonging to the
Fourteenth regiment of Virginia militia.
Yesterday a most brutal murder took place in
Isle of Wright coning near Blackwater. The
name of the victim was Elisha Langford a
Union man, who was supposed to have given
information-to our *mounting parties. He was
attacked by a number of the Southampton
cavalry and shot down in his own house. Not
satisfied with that, these guerillas bayonetted
him as he lay and left him unhurried.
There are no rebel troops of any consequence
this side of the bay.. A. very general ieeling
of gloom prevails among toe inhabitants of
this place, on account of the uncertainty in
reference to the fate of their brothers and sons
in the Coniederate army. Communication
being out off it is impossible for them to obtain
the lists of killed and wounded trom Richmond.

Memphis, June 6, 1862.
Hon. Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy:
tra :—ln my despatch of yesterday, dated
at Fort Pillow, I had the honor to inform the
Department that I was about moving to this

got under way. from Fort Pillow at noon, leav

containing the troops, not then ready to move.
On the way down I clmo suddenly, at a
bend of the river, upon , the rebel transport
steamer _Sovereign, which turned immediately
to escape from us. Leant forward Lieut. Joshua

a valuable prize.

mile and a half above the city of Memphis;
the mortar boats, tow boats, ordnance,
corn
miseary and other . vessels of the fleet tied up at
Island No. 44 for the night.
At daylight this morning the.enemy's fleet,
consisting of the rebel rams and gunboat, now
numbering eight vessels, were discovered lying
at the levee. They,dwmped below• Railroad
Point,- and' ietbrnitig • again,- arrariged them
selves in front of the city.
At 4.20 the flotilla, consisting of the follow
ing five vessels, the flag- ship Benton, Lieut.
Commanding S. L. Phelps ; the Louisville, Com
mander B. M; Dove; the Carondelet, Com
mander Henry Welke; the Cairo, Lieut. Com
manding N.' 0: Bryant; and the St: Louis,
Lieut. Commanding Wilson M'enrinegle, got
under way by signal, and dropped" down the
river.
The rebels, still Tying in front of the town,
opened fire, with the intention of exposing the
city •to injury from our shot. While the en
gagement was going on in this manner, two
vestal of the asm Beet, tinder command of Col.
Ellet, the Queen of the West and Moruirch,
steamed by us and ran boldly into the enemy's
liner fieveriflcoriffietelvd takiti place bet Ween
the rams betare the flotilla, led by the 13eutou,

closest quarters. In the meantime, however,
the firing from our gunboats was continuous
and exceedingly well dire:lied. The 6011. 8131111-
regard and the Little Rebel were struck in the
boilers and ~ blown; up. ;
The rum Queen of the West, which Colonel
Ellet commanded in person, encountered with
full power the rebel steamer Gen. I,civell, and
sunk her ; but in doing so sustained some se
rious damage:
Up to this time the rebel fleet had Maintain
ed its position and used its guns with great
spirit; these disasters, however, compelled the
remaining vessel*, to resort to their superiority
in speed as the only means of safety. A run
ning fight took place, which lasted ..nearly an
hour, and carried us ten miles.helow the city.
It et.ded in the capture or destruction of four i
of the five remaining Vessels of the enemy; one
only, supposed to be the Van Dorn, having
escaped. Two of the rams, the Monareh. and
Lancaster No. 8, pursued her, but without suc
cess ; they brought back, however, another'
prize.
The names and fate Of the vessels composing
the rebel fleet are as follows:
The General Lovell, sunk in the beginning
of the action by the Queen of the West she
went down in deep water, in the middle of the
river, altogether out of sight. Some of her
crew escaped by .swimming bow many went
down in her I have not been able to ascertain.
The Generalilleauregard, blown -up by, her
boilers and otherwise injured by shot, went
down near shore.
The little' Rebel, injured in a similar man
ner, made for. the Arkansas shore, where she
was abandoned by hex crew.
The Jeff. Thompson,set on fire by , our shells,
wag run on the river bank and abandoned by
her crew. She burnt to the water's edge, and
blew up her magasffnm
The General Price was also run on the Ar
kansas shore. She had come, in contact with
one of 'the 'rams of her own party, and was
otherwise injured by cannon balls. She also
was abandoned by her crew.
The Sumter is somewhat cut up, but is still
afloat.
The fine steamer General Bragg is also above
water, though a good deal shattered in her
upper works and hull. ,
The Van Dorn escaped.
Of tkexabiere-isameciates3els the Sumter, Gen
eral Braeg and Little Rebel will admit of being
repaired., • I fhave not received
,the reports of
the engineers` and Carpenters, and cannot yet
determine whether it will be necessary to send
them to Cairo, or whether they can be repaired
here.
The pump of the Champion No. 3 will be
applied to raise the Oen. Price. No other yea
eels of the rebel flotilla will, I fear, be saved
Ihave not received such information as will
enable me to make an approximate statement
of the number of killed, wounded and prison
ers, on the part of the enemy. One of the
'crewels, going down in• deep water, carried a
part of her crew with her ; another, the Gene
ral Beauregard, haviog been blown up with
steam. many of her crew were frightfully scald
ed. I doubt whether it will ever be in my
power to furnish an accurate statement of
these remits of the Immanent.
The attack made by the two rams under Col.
Eliot, which took place before the flotilla clos
