Gems tram the Telegraph. We have ~ often been condemned by our Ifriende for noticing anything that appeared lu ithe'Tetegrapii; but we think they are mistaken in their • views. People abroad should bola formed of whatis well known to the citizens of this place, thatilergner, himself, is a contempt ible scoundrel, as unprincipled wretch, law rant, impudent, mendacious and avaricious. His chief editor is no better, and, perhaps— being endowed with a little more intelligence —even worse. The men, therefore, are un worthy .of notice from any respectable source. But the paper which they control is the central organ of the Abolition or Black Repiblicasi party of Pennsylvania, and as such, in our opinion, it would not only show a lack of sense .and duty in us to permit its falsehoods and false doctrines to pass unnoticed, but be treacherous to the interests of-truth and De mocracy, and justly subject us to the charge of criminal negligence. With this view of the natter woken hereafter pay as Much attention to what appears in the Telegraph as we think it reqnires, and no more. With these prelim inary remarks we proceed to point out and briefly comment open a few gems to be found in the niessisph of Monday evening, the 13th‘ On the Bulged of conscription—with the fact in its recollection that Thaddeus Stevens al leged, in his place in Congress, as an irresist iblof reason for arming the negroes, that no whi g teermy conid thereafter be raised by that justly unpopular mode—the Telegraph urges that 600,000 men be forced into the military service under that law, remarking, in all the vanity of ignorsnee.: “Thet would be enough to do up the work in a short time." Leaving out of view the utter heartlessness of this atereeziary Hesston and his equally in sensible editor, in wishing to drag 600,000 eitiesna from their home an 4 families Wider a despotic militari s tavascriptlon, we deny the assertion, taking the past as an index of the future, that even this large number "would be enough to do up the work in a -short time."— We go even farther, and allege that, under the misnumarunent of the Waehineen imbeciles and blunderers, they would not "do up the work" at an, bat would be wasted away, use lessly, as have been the hundreds of thousands already sent into the field. At every fresh rush of men to the war, we have been told the same story by the relegrapA •snd its contemporaries of the Black Republican acbool. According teAheir lying prophecies the 16,000 that first rushed into the strife were - to put a speedy end to the rebellion. When they tailed to do so, the next 250,000 were to sweep like Iliornado over the genet sad level elet7- thing in their victorious course. When they failed, then the next and subsequent armies, amounting to over a million of brave and well armed men, were surely and quickly to "do up the work;" and yet where are we to-day, when the Telesiwinh—nothing daunted by the failures Of 04 pa*t, which it &Mired us would each and -all be successes—impudently and igno rantly tweets that 600,000 conscripted men, going eelttetant# from their homes under military. *compulsion, would "do up the work in a shoretime." We say, with a, ;teat , oat solemness of the full import et our words, that under the pre sent mismariagenient of our national. affairs, and in support of the taktonstitutional, unwise and impracticable Policydof the administration, it would be little lees Than murder to send 600, 006 soustriptit into 41 1 - They should be kept in their reepeative Stat.se for State defence, until actually needed at, other points— /4nd this course we advise, it the conscription must ucpefularlly.be =famed:: Sinew the recent victoria.. eop — perheads are not Oro eager to resit Dis asters mutout ;the noble quantieUgitthe brave, bar etiOtior _ireigidation and Sig. ilk. cowards, , . . This it another gem .from the ,reiegraph. which requires no elaborate notice. There is no disguising the fact that in a free country conscriptions are odious, and justly so; inas much as, under a wise administration, acting upon just and patriotic views, and for consti tutional purposes only, they,oseed never be resorted to. But, however hostile public opinion !nay im to Abla modektf row! in army, thhxe notvaow,. : nnd*ere"tins'*4 been, a 'ilea* dij ositton esk;: the ttart, Dernsoratt than on - the part Of. Relkticlionns "to resist" them. Any assertion contrary to this is false- The truth of the latter clause of the paragraph quoted we admit. It was clearly exemplified in thenisilanirneukflight ofßaynes, his associate, and several other distinguished Abolitionists, on the fiht intelligence of the near proximity of the enemy, while every Demoerert•siood his ground, determined to defend the 0#01 , 01414 'thf risk of his life. Yet, truly, "disasters bring out the noble qualities of the brave; but produce trepidation and fear in cowards." The miserable attempt to pervert our mean ing by quoting fhb three Concluding lines of a half velum= article, and -basely misconstruing them, is unworthy of notice. only ano ther 'exhibition of the innate meanness and entire destitution of honorable principle of the Hessian and his chief Editor, and we let it pass. But there is one portion of the article which we cannot suffer to escape Without com ment. The Telegraph speaks of The certainty of the doom which awaits It Emearting the PATRIOT AND union] when..oiir victorious armies have finished ?the work of suppressing treason in the South, and then tura their attention to tlie traitors of the North." [That is, the Democratic,parly.] This is the "doom" to which Haileek referred in his New York letter, when heeaid the army , after it had finished its job meth, would put its heel on the necks of Northern Democrats. it is what Stanton referred te in his recent speech, when he Apoknof "diking the Cop perheads hissing to their holes:" fit is what the coward Milroy foreshadowederhen he used similar bold langua,ge.. It is, in short, this, that when the administkation has used the army for the purpose of' dreitr i eging the Unfog, and , emanoipatitw the , nesrties of theAouth, it in tends to hurl it upon the freemen of•the Nord, and make it the instrument—having freed the regroet—to endow the while men That is what the Telegraph means—that is what If illeck, and Stanton, and Milroy, and all the other Alsolition eonepiratere menu, We emderstand them, but we do not fear' them. L— . are conspirators. and therefore cowards, and dare not seriously make . tite attempt. If they do they well be defeatek antilfind them selves hanged epon the gallows they had erec ted far others,--dor the American people have determined that the old 'Constitution shall be preserved and the Old Union restored, in spite of all the power and all the eikprts, civil and military, of the despots who 'now govern. It is written and it -cannot be obliterated. The scheme of negro freedom and white slartry, of - a destroyed Constitation, consolidated goy eminent and military rule, is destined to fall by relinquishment, or be wiped out in the blood of its infamous proj odors. Witere are Cnandler's 300,4M0 Men. This "blood-letting" member of the Jacobin Committee, in his late exoursion to New York, asserted that he had3oo,ooo men subject to his call. Make him summon his warriors, and let us have no draft, or get Gov. Andrew's million, who were "to swarm the highways," or H.

The Plain Dealer i;a right—with thesepromi aed Abolition troops no draft will he twoosp,ry.

GENERAL CAMERON AND GOOD NEWS. General Simon Cameron rode'into the camp to-day, having left Greencastle this morning. He brings news that will be cheering to the troops, but would be perhaps improper to pub lish just now. THE ENEMY'S POSITION.

The rebels did not reply. The battery, supporto by skirmishers, then advaneed a fourth of a mile and took position in the woods, when they again opened on the enemy, who then fired twelve rounds of shell. The skirmishers of the Third corps were then thrown forward, and the rebel infantry and first line of their works opened a heavy fire of musketry, but on the third round pushed for ward and took the rebel works at the point of the bayonet.

MORGAN'S MOVEMENTS IN INDIANA. [From the Cincinnati Gazetta of Saturday.] : A s ND aw AC ON ITC: AND . a ....STEAMER AUDI! DEAN DESTROYED -kO. Our city was full of all manner of rumors yesterday, of the movements of Morgan and his forces in Indiana, and of the reported ad vance.of Gen. Buckner with 10,000 men from the South. At noon yesterday, Gen. Burnside, fearing that Morgan might perhaps endeavor to make his way outfit' Indiana, on finding that he was so hotly pursued by Gen. Hobson, and that she Would attempt to cross the Ohio at or near Westport, which is midway between Louisville and Madison, notified the managers of the Lou isville mail boat line that they ought not to send out their boats unless they were properly, armed to defend themselves, for Morgan might w th his cavalry bring them to, and after using them in carrying his men and horses across the river, might destroy them. As 00011 as Capt. Pierce received this notice the Major An derson, having just started, was overhauled at the Fifth street landing and detaiued. At noon a dispatch was received from Mitch ell by the officers of the Ohio and Mississippi railroad, which stated that the train just in from Balm brought the report that Salem wag in the hands of the rebels and was being burned. The train was pursued three miles by cavalry, not giving them time to turn their engine.— The train was baoked up to Mitchell. The latest news we have of the boat Alice Dean is from a 'gentleman who accompanied Capt. Pepper up from Louisville. The boat was burned on Thursday morning by Morgan's men, her entire crew being transferred to the Lady Pike, which came up 'about the same time, and was suffered by the rebels to proceed, only detaining her long enough to put on the captured men. It was rumored that a considerable body of rebels had appeared at a place on the river about twenty miles this side of Louisville. The report does not seem to be altogether vei y reliable, but in order to guard against a rept tition of the Alice Dean affair, Gen. Burnside has issued an order suspending all communi cation by water between Louisville and this city, until the presence of a sufficient number of gunboats shall render navigation between the two places secure. These gunboats are already on their way up and down the river. 'l'HB LATEST. CINCINNATI, July 13.—Morgan left Moore's Hill, on the Ohio and Mississippi railroad, at 1 o'clock this morning, and passed over the Indianapolis and Cincinnati railroad at a point thirty.five miles from here. He reached Har rison, ni l Hamilton county, Ohio, at about noon to-day. At 64 o'clock he was within sixteen miles of Hamilton,. adjoining the county of Butler, and moving slowly on that place. Gen. Hob3on, with a strong force, was five hiurs behind him. The damage done to the Ohio and Mississippi' railroad was three bridges destroyed, a Water station destroyed and some. of the track re 'moved. The damage done, to the Indianapolis and Cincinnati railread was very little, only one of theVatoi tanks being removed. FROM NORTH CAROLINA BOLD TALK FOR lacownituarioN--succEssrur, EXPEDITION OP GEN. HICKMAN. NEWBERN, July 9.—The Raleigh Register in referring to the extra session of the Legisla ture says: There is mischief brewing, which bodes no good to the confederate cause. History tells us that the Legislature (pea not warrant us in expecting anything but mischief at its hands. The Register says that the Governor's organ, the Raleigh Standard, is doing all in its power to incite the people to rebel against the con federate government. Members of the Legis lature from Caswell county have come out for reconstruction of the Union, and the Wil mington Journal says that other members are iptending to openly . advocate the same thing. The expedition which left on the night of the 3d ,inst., returned , on the morning of the 7th, having successfully accomplished its ob ject. Gen. Hickman, commanding tie infantry and artillery, attacked the ettertir ileat Kings ton, where he compelled them to remain, while Lieut. Col. Lewis and Major Cole, with sixteen companies of cavalry, proceeded on to Vienansville, ninety miles from Newbern, where the track of the Wilmington and Welden railroad was destroyed for a great diitance, by bending double the rails, burning bridges, &c. An extensive sabre factory, at Kenaraville, with many thousand sabres, was burned; also, an extensive knapsack factory, with some 20,000 knapsacks. Nearly every town through which the cavalry passed contained a rebel commissary depot full of confederate stores, which were burnt, together with great quanti ties of cotton, tar, pitch, rosin, turpentine, horses and mules. Negroes and prisoners were captured in great numbers. SOmes2oo,ooo in confederate money was captured from collectors in Vien ansville, and large amounts from other tax collectors, amounti n g to nearly half a million, which, with the immense amount of property destroyed, is a severe blow to the rebel cause in North Carolina, all of which was accom plished without the loss of a man on our side. FROM FORTRESS MONROE. LIEUT. SANBORN KILLED. FORTRESS MONROE, July 12.—Yesterday af ternoon at four o'clock, Lieut. Sanborn, who was drilling a colored military company in front of Andrew Foster's dry goods store on Main street, Norfolk, was shot, one ball pas sing in at the mouth and out behind the ear, and another ball through his body, entering the left shoulder and coming out at the right, from the effects of which tio . died in fifteen minutes. Doctor Wright, of Norfolk, is charged with the murder, and had a preliminary examination last evening before the Provost Marshal, Major Bovey. The first witness called was Lieut. Col. Guyon, 148th New York regiment, who testi- Des that Lieut. Sanborn had drawn up his Company on Rain street, in front of Andrew Foster's store, and was in front of his men drilling them, when Doctor Wright, who was in the store, addressed some remarks to Lieut. Sanborn, who replied if he was further inter fered with in that way he would arrest him. The Doctor thereupon advanced and shot Lieut. S. in. the head. The Lieutenant then turned upon the Doctor with sword uplifted, when the Doctor fired a second time, hitting the Lieutenant first in the hand and passing through from his left to right shoulder. The Lieutenant seized the Doctor, and endeavored to wrench the pistol from his hand, and while thus struggling they entered the store, a great crowd following glom. They continued strug gling for several minutes, when the witness took the pistol from Doctor Wright and ar rested him. ' Lieut S. died inabout fifteen minutes. Six other . witnesses were examined, whose testimony was in substance the same as the above. The. Doctor was committed to jail. Lieut. Sanborn was recently from the Quar termaster Department at Washington, and a native of Vermont. Col. Spears, 11th Pennsylvania cavalry, ar rived at Fortress Monroe to-day. ' FROM THE INDIAN COUNTRY.

Sibley's expedition was sixty-five miles from Fort Abercrombie last week, suffering ter ribly from want of water. Gen. Sibley found vegetation destroyed and the drouth terrible. A treater portion of Ms provisions were ruined by the extreme heat. Large numbers of wag ons were abandoned. The ambulances are full of sick, and the men and officers are all dis couraged. A proposal to abandon the expedi tion had been considered, but Gen. Sibley de cided to move forward. The chances .are that he will soon find the country devastated by prarie fires and be obliged to return. IMPORTANT FROM TENNESSEE GIN.
