Andrew Johnson,
The Citizenship of the Soldier—ls He a
Freeman or a Slavel
In a few weeks it must be decided by the
people Of Pennsylvania, whether the soldiers
who are now absent fighting in the'defence of
the Government, are citizens or : slaves. This
issue involves a vital principle in the existence
of the National Union. Those who are
friendly to that Union, are of course in favor
of recognizing as existing in the soldier all
the franchises and rights exercised by the cit.
izen. Those who believe in the integrity of
the Governnient—its right to rule in all the
States—the supremacy of its authority over
the actions of States—are opposed to the claim
that the citizen entering the army forfeits his
citizenship. In fact, if a majority of the peo
ple of this or any other State desire the dis
franchisement of the soldier, it will be re
ceived by the citizens whO are now in the
field serving in the army, as a virtual repudi
ation of their acts—as a positive denunciation
of their course—and as a hoid avowal that
all such are merely the hired assassins of an
Administration which does not represent the
Government. Forced into this position; is it,
fair to expect that.they will continue to peril
their lives in defence . of a government in the
participation of which they are denied all re
cognition? Will the fathers who have sons, or
the brothers who have brothers in .the army,
not share this disgrace involved in the disfran
chisement of the soldier? This is a question
which comes home to us all—and unlesS it is
fairly met and triumphantly decided at the
polls on the 2d of August in favor of the sol
dier, it will be impossible to estimate the dis
astrous consequences that will follow to the
Government and the country.
Those who deny the right of the elec
tive franchise to the soldier, insist upon their
position, not because they believe in the_ in
justice of the soldier's claim, but becanse they
are convinced they cannot secure the control,
of the Government unless the, soldier is dis
franchised—denied his right to a vote. The
party in the loyal States; now acting in sym
pathy with the traitors of the South; make
this issue with the soldiers one of vital im
portance to the cause of rebellion. The lead
ers of the rebels in the free States, insist that
there must be no recognition of the rights of
those who have taken up arms in defence. of
. 0"
the Government, and that the only mode of
rendering coercion odious, is to degrade the
citizen who engages in an armed effort to vin
dicate and sustain the national authority.
If the amendment to the Constitution extend
ing the elective franchise to the soldier is
defeated, the enemies of that measure will at
once claim the defeat a a virtual "repudia
tion of the Government—as an absolute and
positive condemnation of, those who are peril
ling life in its defence—as a broad and cordial
encouragement to those now in arms in oppo
sition to that government, to continue in their
struggle with increased hopes of success.
—We wantour friends and the true ,sne
porters of the Government earnestly to engage
in the effort to achieve victory at the pens on
the 2d day of AuguSt, ensuing. We cannot
too highly estimate the question's involved in
the issue of that election. Extending beyond
the investment of the soldier with the elective
franchise, 'then will be decided in fact, whether
loyalty to the Government carries with it an
interest in its existence, or whether those who
peril their lives in its defence are worthy of
its honor and its recognition. We must , carry
the. August election, IF INTEND TO CONTRIB

What Will be Done With Vallazidighaml
This question agitates a great many good
people, while the peculiar supporters of the
great "haniched," insist that any effort to re
arrest the Buckeye traitor must result in im
mediate revolution in the North. Be this as
it may, the subordinate:military authorities for
the Department in which Vallandigham has
taken refuge, have their instructions in the
premises, and need not, therefore, wait for
any orders to act in his case. The following
is the language of the order on the subject of
Vallandigham's banishment:
S. Military Telegraph, May 19, 1863.
[Cipher:]—
[ I3 .Y telegraph from Washington, 9:40 P. Is.,
'63.]
TO MAJOR GEN. MUMMA COBirif DING DEPART-
Sm:—The President direQts that, witholt
delay, you send C: L. Vallandigham, under
secure, guard, to the headquarters of Gen.
lioseerans, to be put by him beyond our lines,
and in ca-te of his-return within our lines, he be
arrested amid kept in close custody for the term
specified in his sentence.
• E. R. S. CANBY,
Brigadier General and A. A. G.
Please acknowledge receipt of this, and
time when received, by, request of
If the servants'of the Government in Ohio
do their duty, Vallandigham will at once be
re-arrested; if the military authorities fail in
their instructions the traitor will be suffered
to run at large and resume his conspiracies
against the Government with impunity. This
is really the •condition of the circumstances
surrounding Vallandigham's case.
GEN. Meanz.--The Army and liavy Journal
calls attention to the fact that General Meade
is still commander of the Army of the Poto
mac. He gets ignored by the newspapers,
which speak of Gen. Grant as the commander,
but the Journal says the orders of Gen. Grant
to Gen. Meade , are of the most general charac
ter, the manner of executing - them beingleft to
the judgment and skill of the latter, who
stands in the same relation to his , army that
Gen.-.Shernnut does to his, except that Grant
is with the former.
Tga N. Y. World insists that the arrest and
banishment of Vallandigham have split the
Union partyitally at Cleveland. The figtire
of the World is Yaulty. Instead of a split, the
action of the Cleveland Convention has only
produced a slough of unhealthy matter that
had found its way into the Union organize
tiom The World and its party are welcome
to all the benefits they may derive from the
Cleveland performance.

WARRINGTON, June 28-9.50 A. M.
To Major-General Dix:
A dispatch from General Grant, dated yes
terday, Jane 27th, at 3.30 P. M., at his head
quarters, reports no operation in front, except
from our own guni, which fire into the bridge
at Petersburg, from a distance of two thou
sand yards.
The dispatch gives the following intelli
gence from the rebel papers,:
The Petersburg papers of the 25th state
that Hunter is striking for Jackson, river de
pot, about forty , miles north of. Salem, and say
that if he reaches Covington,
which they sup
pose he will do with most of his forces, but
with a loss of material, he will be safe.
The same papers accuse Hunter of destroy
ing a great amount of private property
_and
stealing a large number of wagons and horses
and cattle.
The same , papers also state that Wilson de
stroyed a train of care:loaded with cotton and
furniture, burned the depot, buildings,
at Burkesville, and destroyed some of the
track and was still pushingsouth.
All the railroads ioading into Richmond are
now destroyed and some of them badly.
[Norz.—Burkesville is the junction of the
South Side and Danville railrOads:--RE
roirrar.. ]
A dispatch from Gen. Sherman received this
morning, reports that yesterday, June 27th,
an unsuccessful attack was made by our forces
on, he enemy's positions, which resulted in a
loss to us of between two and three thousand.
- - .
The following particulars are given:
Pursuant to my order of the 24th, a ;di
version was made on each flank of the enemy,
especially down the Sandtown road. At 8 A.
M. McPherson attacked at the southwest end
of Kenesaw, and Thomas at a point about a
mile further south. At the -game time the
skirmishers and artillery alerig the whole line
kept up a sharp fire. Neither attack suc
ceeded, though both columns reached the ne
emy's works, which are very strong.
McPherson reports his loss about 5,000 and
Thornes about 2,000. The loas was particu
larly heavy in general field officers:
- Gen. Harker is reported mortally, wounded;
, also Colonel Dan. McCook, commanding a
brigade; Col. Rice, 57th Ohio, very seriously;
Col. Brownhall, 40th Illinois, and Col. Augus
tine, 55th Illinois are killed. .
•
McPherson took a hundred prisoners, and
Thomas about as many. But Ido not sup
pose we : inflicted ,a heavy loss. on Ihe..enemy,
as he kept close behind the parapets. -
No other military intelligence has beau re
ceived by the department.

Mr. Dana, the Assistant Secretary, at War,.
who 'will be accepted throughout: the. United.
States as one of the most intelligent and cool
observers that have studied. the war, as well
as one of the most truthful of men, has an
swered the questions of anxious inquirers
here about the situation, at Peteriburg, to the
effect, that Lee's force is not more than two
thirds otrGrant's; that our losses last week in
the movement toward the Weldon read were
militarily unimportant, and that Grant had
his hand on Lec's throat., and would keep his
hold till he strangled_him..to death.
He, gives to all the assurance of our final
and conclusive success. limonethe striking
facts which Mr. Dana has mentioned is that
we have at this moment 51,000 of the rebel
soldiers prisoners in our- hands. The pubiic,
feeling here, to-night is one of absolute, un-,
wavering confidence in the future: and in
Grant, and over and above all in Grant's army.

The meeting was called for B.o'clock. A

of the building, failed to attract much at

had been assigned the duty of 'addressing the

had been erected outside the building in Astor

charge of the meeting had not arrived, and

: I have the honor to acknowledge the
receipt of yo:ur, letter, dated tO.day, submit

1. The act to prohibit certain sales of, gold
and foreign exchange. approved June 13,
1864, 'requires payment in fidlof the agreed
price of gold or bullion purehased on the day
on which , the contract ii'made, in 'United

Can Such payment be made, by check for
the amount of the purchase 'money , in United
Statenotes or nationabcrirrency - , - or can it be
Made. only by manual - delivery oftbe notes or
dintency-by the buyer to the seller? .
'= 2. The same act prohibits contracts for the
.
purchase or sale and " delivery of foreign ex
change, except on conditionof_ immediate
payment in full of the agreed price therefor
on the dap of delivery in United Statee notes
or national currency.
Would a payment for eneEtetchange in
