    people, and the people lost the king. because
they beheaded him. I cannot help thinkiug
that Mr. Seward had that transaction before
him when he said to Lord Lyons, on the 14th
o f September, 1861: "My lord, I can touch a
bell on my right hand and order the arrest
of a citizen of Ohio." He did it.. (Laugh
ter.) " I can touch the bell again and
order the arrest of a citizen of New York."
He cannot do it (Tremendous and continued
applause. A voice ; " Three cheers for Gov.
Seymour; he cannot do it," given enthusias
tically.) ~ C an the Queen of England in her
dominions do as much ?" She cannot do
The English people love the royal lady that
now occupies the throne of England, and they
are a loyal people ; but in spite of their loyalty
she dare not attempt it, and they would no t
let her. AIL! that little bell! I think 2 hear
it tinkling still, and the sound becoming louder
and louder, until it begins to boom along and
grows into a tosein, at the sound of which the
citizens of America shali aw ike and secure
their liberties forever. (Tremendous applause.)
In reference to the question of the possibility
Of peace in the immediate present, Mr. O'Gor
man said some perhaps know, that as far as I
ate concerne d I have condemned this war, that
I deplore it, that I considrr it a realm wand°
of heroic blood. (Applause.) I have lifted
up my poor voice for peace when I thought
peace possible, and I believe that from time to
time, during the last two years of war, an
honorable peace, an honorable reconciliation,
an honorable compromise would have been
possible. But now that the war is in its agony;
now that we are in the grip and struggle of
the light; now that the enemy is upon the
soil of a neighboring State, I say nothing of
peace now When the struggle is over, then
will my voice come out again fir reolticilia-
Lion, for compromise. But all that I can say
now is. God d-fend the right.

Thu Situation.
' Each day the situation assumes anew shape.
If we may credit the news we have it is better
to-day than it was yesterday, and it was better
yesterday than it was the day before. Now if
things keep on in this improving way, it does
not require any very nice mathematical calcu
lation to show tha‘t we must. soon be "out of
the woods," traveling on a plain, straight ma
callamized road to peace and a restored Union.
For this we should fervently thank God and
the skill and bravery of the Army of the Poto
mac.
Wa moon to enter into no ellperflaelte opooti
lotions, to offer no gratuitous remarks upon an
occasion at once so solemn and so joyous, if
we may be permitted the use of what appears
to be and yet is not a solecism.
The occasion is solemn, because we have
reached the crisis of the war which htte go dis
tressed the whole nation, and it is joyous be
cause the crisis appears to be favorable to a
restoration of peace, if the authorities on both
sides, who have the direction of public affairs,
are not entirely demented. •
This miserable war has Rhona" a@ Well the
great military resources of the whole country
as the bravery of the people of the different
geographical sections of the country. It has
shown that the North as well as the South, the
East as well as the West, is filled with a popu
lation who will fight, and fight well, when they
believe the occasion requires it to be done.—
We know each other now, MO k now l e d ge
has been obtained at a great expense of blood
and treasure, but it is invaluable, and will
probably preserve the peace of the country for
a full century—so that although thousands of
hearths are desolate, whole provinces laid
was te, and the country brought to the verge
of bankruptcy, the price paid may not, after
all, be too exorbitant for the experience gained.
Let us hope that this may be so, and that,
henceforward, wisdom, virtue, patriotism and
statesmanship may hold the helm and direct
the ship of State.
We „bj o i w yk a latest intelligence we have,
as wen from the Army of the Potomac, opera
• ting almost in our immediate presence, as from
the more remote theatres of war. It will be
seen that Vicksburg has capitulated, and we
may hope, although we have no late intelli
gence from that quarter, that Gen. Banks has
been as successful at Port andson as Grant
has been at the stronghold of the Mississippi
ant Meade in the Valley of the Cumberland.
The news which we publish in another col
umn, from the New York _Herald, of the at
tempt of Vice President Stephens and Commis
sioner Oald, of the Confederate Government, to
communicate personally with the Washington
a dministration, if true is highly - important,
ind we cannot understand why the Cabinet in
council should have refused to receive them
A few days will probably explain all, and we
can afford patiently to await the development.
The following is the substance of all the
news we have:
The New York World of yesterday has the
following, in addition to which we only add
the report that Lee has crossed the Potomac
with a considerable number of his forces.
We have so fay seen nothing to corroborate
the newspaper stories of the utter rout of Lee's
army. The simple fact seems to be that, like
Burnside at Fredericksburg, he hurled his
army upon masses of artillery and infantry.
and was repulsed, not only once but several
times_ Our army made no attaek,upon the
rebels, but barely attempted to hold its ground,
which it succeeded in doing, swill" addition by
the close of Friday evening held the best part
of the battle field. Of course their failure to
defeat the Army of the Potomac was a cruel
disappointment to the rebels, as it put a stop
to their schemes of invasion, and they were
compelled to retreat to save their communica•
dons, nfenaced as the latter were by the forces
of Gen French and Gen. Couch. But there is
no reliable evidence as yet that the retreat
was disorderly, though it was probably hurried
to gain time. And here it may be well perhaps
to state why Lee fought these three days' bat
ties. Clearly, then, it was to prevent the junc
tion of Mesde's and Couch's forces. It will be
remembered that when Reynolds was attacked
on Wednesday last he was marching from
Gettysburg to Car:isle, to which point General
Couch had pushed his advance guard under
General Smith: Longstreet and Hill, to pre
vent the junction and keep the armies apart,
felt upon the First and Eleventh corps and
drove them back. Taking advantage of this
success for him and reverse for us, Lee deter
mined to attack and defeat, if possible, Meade's
whole army. He saw he had no time to spare
with Cpuch within a two days' march of his
rear and Gen. French hanging upon his other
flank. "tense the desperate assault of Thurs
d4y ofttruoun awl the fusion Ogheifig of Fri
day morning. Hence, also, the retreat of Fri
day night when his assault failed. This was
to save his communications.
Lee's army retreated, we have reason to be
lieve, in tolerat ly good order. We do not hear
dip
of his - ng guns, though he did prisoners,
etrag and some of the trains be coultroot
take a y with him. When last heard from he
was at Williamsport, tend it was feared at
Washington that he would succeed in getting
across the Potomac notwithstanding the height
of the stream., Gen. Meade was in pursuit by
way of Frederick, and Gen. Couch was coming
down the Cumberland valley. Should Lee be
overtaken it would go hard with him, as he
.must be short of ammunition, but we would
not be at all surprised if he got with what was
left of his army across to the Virginia shore.—
To speculate upon the loss of Lee's army is de
cidedly premature.
SURRENDER OF VICKSBURG
WASHINGTON, July 7.—The brief telegram
from Admiral Porter to the Secretary of the
Navy, announcing the surrender °Vicksburg
on the 4th of July, was received a few minutes
of one o'clock. The news spread with aston
ishing rapidity throughout the city, exciting
the most marked and expressive enthusia , m.
The intelfigenee was at once communicated to
the President by Secretary W. lies in person.
UNITED STATES HISSD-EIPPr
FLAG SHIP %ACK HAWK, VICKSIIIIEG, July 4.
To Hon. Gideon Wei/es, secretary of the Navy :
have the honor to inform you that
Vicksburg has surrendered to the United Stales
forces on this, the Fourth of July.
Very respectfully yours,
(Signed) D. D. PORTER,
Acting Rear Admiral:
CAIRO. Jul; 7.—The dispatch boat has just
arrived here from Vicksburg. She left at ten
o'clock on Sunday morning. The passengers
announce that Gen. Pemberton sent in 0 nog
of truce on the morning of 4th of July, Mid
offered to surrender if his men were allowed
to march out. Gen. Grant is reported to have
replied that no men should leave except as pri
soners of war. Gen. Pemberton then, after a
consultation with his commanders, uncondi
tionally surrendered.
This news is perfectly reliable.
A movement commenced among the forces
of General Dix at White House, Va., on the
Ist inst., General Keyes, with a part of the
army proceeding directly toward Richmond,
while General Getty's brigade went Up the
Pamunkey. The latter was expected to join
General Keyes, after having destroyed the re
maining bridge on the South Anna river. Gen.
Keyes came up with a force of rebels, six miles
14and, which retreated before him.
The Richmond Enquirer, of July 4, says :
"The Yankees are making a raid into Eastern
Tennessee. A-strong force was at Zequatchie
Valley on the 2d inst. There has been no
communication with Knoxville or Loudon
Bridge ainoe. It is believed that important
movements of Bragg's and Rosecrans' armies
are in progress. No particulars have been
received."
Hon_ C. L Vallandigham arrived at Halifax
on Sunday. It is expected that ho will proceed
to the Clifton House, Niagara Falls, where he
will remain for the present.
9 O'CLOCK P. N.—We have come to the con
clusion that we know nothing at all about the
position of the oonflicting armies between the
Susquehanna and the Potomeo. At four o'clock
we felt sanguine that everything was favora
ble—but rumor presses upon rumor, and at
this hour we are as absolute know. nothings as
ever existed. It is now said that Lee has for
tified Newman's Gap, in the South Mountain—
that portions of his army are still prowling in
the neighborhoods of Gettysburg and Cham
bersburg, and that, in fact, the battle is as
much undecided as it was on Friday evening.
Fourth of July Speech of Gov. Horatio
Seymour, of New York.
This sound and eloquent speech is printed
on our first papa We invite attention to it,
berape ip deserves attention. It is a complete
exposition of Democratic views. It shows the
madness of the ruling power in precipitating
this war against the wise counsellings and sol
emn warnings of the Democratic party, and
points out the pathway to union in the north,
to peace on an honorable basis, to a restored
Union and fraternal relations. At this time
the man who will not soberly read and sol
emnly reflect upon the subject matter of a
speech like this, delivered by an eminent citi
zen upon a great occasion, is unworthy
American citizenship, and fit only to belong to
the crowd of fools and fanatics who, having
brought the country to the verge of ruin, are
striving to complete the destruction by hurling
it over the precipice.
Horatio Seymour is no ordinary man. He
is, in fact, a great man—and just now a great
man is a curiosity who ought io be studied by
the whole country and exalted in political
power by universal consent.
It is time that the people should throw off
the reign of apes and donkeys, of tdodding
fools and plotting knaves, and try once more
the utility of statesmanship and patriotism in
directing the administration of the government
We invite attention—the attention of all
citizens who value the privileges guarantied
by our Constitution and the inherent rights
which it respects—to the able speech of Gov.
Seymour.

boat Dragon came down the ames river with
a flag of truce. Acting Rear Admiral Lee
sent up an officer to meet it, when it was as
certained that Alexander H. Stephens and
Commissioner Ould were on board. They
represented that they were the bearers of an
important letter trout Jefferson Davis, Com
mander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the
Confederate States, to Abraham Lincoln, Com
mander-in-Chief of the Army and Navy of the
United States, and requested permission to
proceed to Washington in the Dragon and pre
sent the letter to President Lincoln in per
son.- They declined to reveal anything further
in relation to their misgion than is above
ittatOd,
Admiral Lee, of course, had no authority to
grant their request, and they consented to wait
until be could communicate with Washington
and receive instructions in regard to,the mat
ter. He accordingly telegraphed the facts and
requested instructions. This morning a spe
cial Cabinet meeting was called to consider the
matter. The granting of the request involved
many delicate and important questions, as such
a proceeding might be construed into an ac
knowledgment of the nationality of the pre
tended Confederate government; and, after all,
the matter might be some comparatively unim
portant aff.ir, such as the employment of ne
gro troops, 44-
No decision was arrived at, and the Cabinet
meeting was accordingly adjourned until to
morrow, and Admiral Lee was instructed to as
certain if possible the obj*-ct of the mission.
' In the meantime, however, the tug contain
ing the rebel ambassadors had turned about
and steamed up the river, without any parting
salutation or explanation, and thus ended the
mission.
A gentleman just arrived from Richmond,
who left the day before yesterday, says great
consternation prevails there. The defences
are occupied chiefly by armed citizens, and
feats are entertained that Lee will be cut off
and Richmond captured before an army can be
concentrated there.
WASHINGTON, July 6.—Evening.—ln refer.

Stephens and Commissioner Ould, to be per
mitted to proceed to Washington in the rebel
gunboat Dragon, to present in person a letter
from Jeff. Davis to President Lincoln, it was

be granted, and Admiral Lee was instructed to
notify them that, should the application he
renewed, the ordinary channels would suffice
for the transmission of any communications

TEE CIVIL AND MILITARY POWERS
From the New York Evening Poet of July 2d
General Pope has addressed a letter to the
Governor of Wisconsin, in which he defines
briefly and lucidly the place and duty of the
military authorities in the enforcement of the
laws. Governor Salomon wrote, in relation to
the execution of the conscription act in that
State, and the resistance which it was feared
would be made in certain parts of the State,
that, in my judgment, the military power
should not be employed in the enforceuteut Of
aoy law in the first instance, but it should be
left to the ordinary civil officers and tribunals
to see to its execution, unless it should clearly
appear that the latter are unwilling or unable
to do so." In this view General Pope, who
commands the Department of the Northwest,
heartily concurs. He writes :
" I fully agree with you that military force
should not be employed within the loyal .mates,
in the execution of this or any other law, until,
all the means for its enforcement usual in times
past have Oen exhausted. * * *
The habit of resorting to military force in
every trifling case of opposition or resistance
to the laws is becoming so common as to excite
in the minds of judicious men very serious
alarm. Such a practice entirely supplants the
civil authority, sets aside timedionored means
for the enforcement of the laws in this country,
destroys in the citizen that feeling of personal
interest in their execution through which alone
we have maintained popular goviernment, and
prepares the public mind for com Pete abdica
tion of civil rule. It is impossible to believe
that citizens of this country, except under the
immediate influence of excitement, can be wil
ling to &tint the enforcement of civil lcw - to
military force, and thus to surrender the very
highest privilege and duty of American citi
zens. Such a'course would inevitably lead, if
persistei in, to the complete dominion of the
military, and the final overthrow of free insti
tutions.
"This practice tends also naturally to weaken
in the soldier that reverence for the civil law,
and that respect for the civil authorities, with
which he entered the military service, which
he still earnestly cherishes, and upon which
alone we must rely for the quiet disbanding of
of our great armies, and the return or the
soldier to his home an orderly, law-abiding
citizen. Mary dictate of wisdom and of pa.
triotism should teach us to discourage, both
by act end word, anything that might possi
bly tend to impair in the mind of the soldier
his feelings as a citizen.
"I therefore hope that all well-disposed citi
zens of this State will, after short reflection,
understand the imperative necessity of exer
cising their right, through the civil tribunals, -
to enforce every law of the United States,
however much they may have been opposed to
its enactment,
" Whilst, therefore, my duty to the Gov
ernment requires me to furnish whatever mili
tary aid is necessary to enforce the conscrip
tion law throughout this department, in strict
accordance with its terms, I shall only employ
military force for that purpose after every re.
source of the civil authority has been used
without success."
General Pope reasons soundly and like an
intelligent and liberty loving American. De
Tocqueville noticed, as one of the most re
markable phenomena which attracted his at
tention during his travels in this country, the
universal respect of Americans for law. The
laws ate observed, he wrote, beetutat, ev ery
citizen feels his interest to lie in their obser
vance. Soldiers are unnecessary to enforce
them because the citizens are ready to assist
the civil authorities chosen by themselves.—
Let us retain this honorable distinction. It is
the one feature of American society which
makes us the superiors of European nations ;
thio single reOult.juetifies liberty and popular
government.
The American people do right to be jealous
of the interference of the military power.—
Their sentiments on this point arise fiom a
conviction, honorable to them, that, except
where open rebellion or insurrection obtains
and temporarily overthrows civil government,
the people are always willing enough and
strong enough to aid the civil authorities to
enforce the laws; and General Pope says, pro
perly, that if we should once accustom our
selves to call on the military power for help at
every turn in our affairs a serious blow would
he struck at, that self dependence and respect
for law which is the foundation of our libt-r
-ties and which alone can make them endure.
We should presently glide into that attitude
of chronic opposition to law and to the civil
government which is the fault of so many Eu
ropean nations.
NEWS OF THE DAY.
BY THE MAILS.
FROM THE ARMY - OF THE POTOMAC
WASHINGTON, July 7.—Our whole army is
in motion, and the highest hopes are enter
tained that but a small portion of Lee's army
will he able to reach Virginia.
BALTIMORE. July 7--8,000 prisoners have
already reached here. Gen. Schenck has
orders to receive 20,000 more, already cap
tured.
The road along the line the rebels retreated
was strewn with wagons, cannon, small arms,
and camp equipage, abandoned by the enemy.
The rebels unhitched the horses and males
from. their loads and stores, and mounting
them pushed for the river. -
Gen. Couch has formed a junction with Gen.
Meade, and the
.fresh militia are slaughtering
and oarouring the gray backs by regiments
and brigades.
Not one-tenth of Lee's army can possibly
get back to Virginia. It is not a defeat for
Lee, but it is a total aout.
The following bulletin has just been issued :
HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY,
Friday night, July 3.
The enemy commenced to retreat rapidly to-
wards Greencastle and Hagerstown. General
Meade following rapidly in pursuit, the en
tire cavaley force pressing on their rear.,
Up to 12 o'clock, m., on Saturday many thou
sands of prisoners had been captured and sent
to the rear, with a large number of cannons.
The route of the enemy is most complete and
disastrous,
General French will intercept his flying
column, and Maryland as well as Pennsylva
nia will be rid of the invaders.
G,LTTSBBURG, July 6 —The report from the
front is very cheering. Our cavalry supported
by infantry, is close upon the heels of the
enemy, and important results are likely to oc
cur before night.
A dispatch from Gen. Gregg of this morning
reports that the rebels, instead of going to
Chambersburg, are pushing to Greencastle.
The roads are very heavy and the rebel trains
are stuck in the mud, and the enemy are aban
doning all their wounded on their retreat.
The barns aud houses for fifteen miles is a
hospital.
They are leaving all their wounded Generals
and Colonels, as well as privates. All their
wounded will tall into our hands.
We have taken over six thousand prisoners
thus far, besides the wounded.
Another dispatch says that the head of the
retreating column had passed through Green
ville, twelve miles northwest , of litigerFtewn,
on Sunday forenoon. On Sunday night Long
street's head quarters were at Jack's mountain,
ten mites from Gettysburg, Ewell's at Fairfield,
two miles distant.
Wien the rebels passed through Fairfield
they were moving rapidly, three columns
abreast.
The slaughter among the rebel general offi
cers was very great. Major General Trimble
is a prisoner in our lines, his left foot gone.
Brigadier General Kemper is a prisoner in a
dying condition. General Armistead, captured
on Thursday, is dead. Major General Hood is
wounded in the arm. Generals . Beth, render,
and Picket are also known to be wounded.
Generals Barksdale and Garnett were killed. ,
The enemy is reported to have a trestle
bridge just built across the Potomac. above
Williamsport. If so their main force may es.
cape.
FREDERICK, July 6.—Gen. Buford, who set
out with the intention of meeting Stuart, bad
a fight with him to-day somewhere in the vi
cinity of Boonsboro'. He whipped him badly.
Tbara is nn fnrther rehab!. luformation.
Stuart's cavalry, 2,000 strong. commanded
by himself, passed through Meohardestowu
yesterday with eight pieces of artillery. This
is supposed to be the force that met Buford to
day.
Rebel deserters report die army to be much
dispirited and out of ammunition. Yesterday
General Kilpatrick, with his. division of
cavalry, attacked an atfibulance train of rebels
under a strong guard, at Smithburg, 11 miles
from Hagerstown. The train comprised 160
ambulances and wagons, a great number of
which he destroyed. His t artillery destroyed
many wagons before the repels surrendered.
