Mobbing of Phillips. Wendell Phillips has been mobbed in Oincinnatti. Ho undertook to make an Abolition speech, and avowing himself a disunionist, tho audicnoe becamu indiguaut.

Did tho Serautou Republican talk in that Btylo, when, less than one year ago, Democrats wero arrested and Domocratio presses destroyed by "mob violence)" ? Did it ever raise its voico ''against this bruta interference with the right of spcoch"? Did it evor say when a Democrat's glorious privilogo of free speech and free press was interfered with "there is a lawful way to silence him" ? Was there ever any pallia lion in its tones, when a remark had bcon made by a Democrat, ooncorning tho war or the party whose unconstitutional sec tionallsm had brought it on, to the effect "TTthe utterances aro treasonable"? No never a syllabic 1 And yet now, when a man, a republican abolitionist avows himself a dhunionist tho Scranton Republican squoaks out in defense nnd. palliation "J'Mr. Phillips utterances aro treasonable" It has como to bo a question with republicans, if it bo treason for a man to be a disunionist, or if it be even seditious. The boot is on tho other leg now, and wo hear thoso ''mob violence" men of a few months ago, shriek and howl for freo speech. Phillips is to bo permitted to perambu late tho country and preach disunion his followers are to howl iu unison, and weak kneed papers support the flank and rear by loud and long shrieks for "freo speech." 0 teropora ! 0 mores 1 Wo are for freo speech we have ever b'sn.

But wo aro duoidedly of tho cpinion -that they will find sometime that the two aro incompatible with good esnso, freo government, sound morals and Gospel liberty, perhaps also of futuro hap piness.

To account for , our appcaranco nt this place and iu some ! measure to show your readers tho pleas-! urcs of soldiering will bo tho object of this 1 letter. I will merely make extracts from my Diary. Friday, March 1st, 1802. Wo receiv ed orders to join Qcn. Abercrombio's Brig- ado, and to march towards Conlrcvillo. Gen. Banks commanding the Fifth Corps d' Arinco is absent at Washington, and so tho command temporarily devolves upon Qcn. Williams. Gon. Shields' Division is now included in Gen. Banks'. Our Brig ade, second) numboring somo 5000 men, was tho first to leave Winchester. It was late when wo reached Berryvillo,our caus ing ground for tho night. Tho majority of of tho forco bivouaetd on the opon ground. It would havo been pleasant had it not rained all night. Berryvillc is tho County seat of Clark co. and resembles Millvillo very much It contains a jail,courthouso two printing offices, tho Clark co. Journal and tho Bcrryvillo Conservator, ono hotel and sovcral houses. Tho hotel has in broad letters "Union House" for which tho proprietor received a freo pass to Rich mond. Saturday, March 22. At an early hour took up our lino of march with the left in front. Passed through a boautiful and well cultivated country. About noon wo crossed the Shenandoah, which here is about 200 yards wide and runs along the base of the Bluo Ridgo. Tho ferry boat was destroyed by the rebels and wo were obliged to put up a military bridge. It ma not tafco long, and only consisted of trusscl work, It was a hard pull up tho mountain for our jaded horses. About half way up wo found a terrace or offset in the mountains, upon whioh wo encamped. mna o nttl n .1 i ' i fill o it ua mm HUU lOUlillUlC 6U0t. XUO stillucss of the placo was soon broken by the voices of 5000 new inhabitants, and the white tents and gleaming camp fires soon gave animation to what was previous ly a death liko solitude. Sunday, March 23. Struck our tents and again commenced ascending the Bluo Ridgo. Reached tho summit without dif ficulty, and from thence had a beautiful view of the country around. Tho Valley of Virginia, famous in every way in tho history of our country, lay spread out bo foro us in its loveliness. Winchester and the camps around it was distinctly visible. The hollow in which Strasburg lay could also be seen, as well as Charlcstown, tho placo of John Brown's execution. After descending the mountain wo expected to find a level road, but wero much deceived. Though tho Valley looked level from the summit of Blue Ridge, cxperienco proved it to bo full of "hilly-holes and bunchy hol lows." The continual up and down hill nearly wearied out our horses. We stop ped for the night at Aldic. Fences were consumed for tiro-wood, wheat stacks de stroyed to furnish straw, and much other useless destruction committed. It i3 to bo regretted that our soldiers, so far forgot tuo dictates ot conscieneo as to ongage in wholsalo destruction and stealing. Many commenced by stealing from rich secess ionist, but the practico finally degenerated into taking goods from all conditions of pcoplo, no matter whether Unionists or Secessionists. Not only have poultry, meat, vegetables, etc., been taken, but horses, books, and furniture, and that which could not bo carried away in many instances ha3 bcon destroyed. Many offi cers not only encourage, but participate in theso things. When white folks in Virgin ia do not belong to tho FF. V's they are very poor, and I havo known somo to havo been reduced to a truly pitiable state. This poor class generally is tho truo Union patty. Monday, March 24. Reports have reached us of a hcevy fight at Winchester, wo havo been ordered back to that placo, though our jaded horses and sorcfooted men aro in no condition to mako a forced march. However, soldiers must obey; not criticize. Ave reached our old oampini' ground beyond the Bluo Ridge at 2 o'clock m the morning. So many of tho infantry gave out along tho road, that ouly frag ments of regiments got in. Tuesday, March 25. Tho bridge over tho Shenandoah broke down and thus de tained us tm near noon. As soon as it was finished we marched on to within a few miles of Winchester, whon wo were orcdrod to "about faco" nnd go again to. wards Centerville. Ere this you have doubtloss received ac counts of tho battle of Winchester. I will givo you a briof summary. Shield's forco lay to tho north of the city, when wo Jeft, many of tho citizens imagined all tho for ccs had cono. In' fact, Col. Ashby of tho rebel cavalry Bawusmovo from Winch os tcr, ho being on Bluo Ridgo. Supposing the city to bo docertcd, ho made a dash on it, and met tho Michigan cavalray, Thoy met him without saddles on their horsos and with naked eabrcs drovo him back. After considerable skirmishing, Jackson brought up his forco, and posted them bo hind a stone wall, whilo Shield's foroo Btooil in their frout without any protection. For two hour they stood it. The 81th and 110th Pa. regiments stood tho bruut1 of tho light, ami did nobly, though thoy had tho roputation of being tho poorest regiments in tho scrvico, and many called them cowards. Tho dead and wounded provo how they faced tho cueniy. Tho "Hurley Guards" nro in tho 8'lth. When tho "Chargo" was given thoy did it well, and pinned tho tho enemy on the other side of tho fenco with their bayonets. Wo lost 130 killed and 200 wounded. Tho enemy lost 500 killed and an equal num ber wounded, bosido four pieces of artillery taken from us at Bull Run. Tho most of their men woro shot in tho head. Wo marched baok to our camp on the Bluo Ridgo, glad to havo a littlo rest. Tho orders havo como to march, and so I will conclude this. I will writo again as soon as wo encamp . ARTILLERIST. 8tii Pknn'a. Oavaluv, ) Camp Leslie, March 17,1802. J" Mr. Editor : Here I sit once more, In our Camp ou tho sacred soil of Virginia, to writo a few lines to inform your read ers that wo had tho plcasuro of being tho first in Manassas, sinco thobattlo of Bull's Run. On last Monday mornincr at three o'clock, our Regiment was drawn up in lino for a march, we started for parts un known to us, at eight o'clock wo found i ourselves in Fairfax, and wo hoisted tho Stars and Stripes on the Court House, and took up the Hue of march again, and at three o'clock wo found the village of Cen trcvillc. That villago is well fortified in the reb els estimation. I will civo vou a sketch of it. Thero aro seven forts, two masked batteries and breastworks, thrown up for six miles around tho villago. The cannon they havo mounted aro wooden logs with tho end of them blacked to represent can non. The rebels had left that stronghold which tho pcoplo of tho North thought was well fortified tho evening before. Gen. Johuson was there with forty thousand troops, so I was informed by a negro. 'At five o'clock we started for Manassas. The sun was just settiug when wo came to Bull's Run and wo examined their tents and found their tables sitting full of cooked provision. The coffee was steaming and cakes on the firo baking, they had been there half an hour before. When we camo to tho Run thoy had blown up the bridge and it was on fire. Wo had a hard job croising the stream. We forded it, water was about five feet deep. Some of our men met with n cool reception in the stream. It was dark when we got ready to start again. At nine o'clock we came in sight of Manassas. When wo arrived at that place tho wholo placo was on fire and wooden guns mounted as usual. They did not leave one building stand at that place. Your humblo servant got some sescsh tobacco. It is splendid smoking tobacco. Every man got somo small ar ticle to scud home. They left Bowie knives, swords, muskets, and a weapon ; I would call it a pike. Tho latter is a sharp piece of iron, stuck in a polo for a bayonet. We planted tho flag of our Union on tho Fort and started for Ccutro villo again. About every fifty yards we could boo a dead horso, and I counted 34 in one pile. The majority had their lcs broken in tho retreat of tho rebels. Any amount of flour was along the road, and broken down wagons. At twclvo o'clock that night wo returned to Qgntrovillc again. We stopped there that night, We traveled 45 miles that day. Tho next morning I got my break fast at a private house. Only one dollar a meal. Some of our men found thebako house of tho rebels, and eight barrels of flour and a cask of lard, and somo molas ses ; and myself with tho rest built firo and commenced baking cakes. The great discovery went through the camp like wildfire. Dear reader, it would have done your soul good to see that bakery in one hour afterwards to see ton or fifteen mix ing dough for oakes, soma on tho table, some on tho stair steps, somo on the floor, and Eorao on the head of a flour barrel. About noon the men camo to camp with their cakes in their hat and caps. That afternoon wo started for Fairfax again, and there wo encamped until Friday, when wo started for Camp Leslie Whilo at Fairfax, one of our meu shot a Michigan soldier through both lcgi close above tho kneo. Tho wouud is not dangerous. It was done aocidently by removing a cap from tho tubo of his rifle. Col. Gregg, our present Colonel, acted with tho great est coolness at Manasses : when the order was given "Men do your best" you could not seo tho appoaranco of fear iu ono of tho men. All eager to get a shot nt a scescsh. We wero very much disappoint cd that wo could tako all of tho places that wo wero in, and not get a shot at a scoscsh. On Thursday Gen. Porter's Division was reviewed by Gen. MoClcllan. Yc6ter day, Sunday, it rained hard all day. Tho Potomac is high ; tho said Bull's Run is very high, aud cau't bo crossed. Threo companies ot our regiment went out scout ing on last Saturday, and camo to tho rebel cavalry and killed fivo and wounded fifteen. Ono of our Lieutenants was shot through tho ohock. 'lbo wound in not dangerous. To-day it is clear and cold. Wo havo justrcccivod marching orders. I hope that when you near h n mo aL'ain.wo will bo further South, rc, Uion crushed to tho earth, and all tho loaders hung by tho neck to llio neareu tree, OVENSIIINE. csyBolow wo givo somo oxtracts from tho Presbyterian J3anntri to whioh wo call .attention; and ask our friends bvorywhorc to seo to it, that no abolitionist is ever oleeted to an office, for ho is a disunionist, i . Abolitionism. Abolition, though one of tho mott gen eral tortus in its signification, has recently bcon assigned a specific meaning. Abo litionists aro thoso who, unscrupulous us to means ami reckless as to the constitutional law ard social rights would put an end to slavery. Such abolitiouist3 nro Wright, Kelly, Thompson, Phillips, Pillsbury, Garrison & Co. men and women who advocated emancipation oven by tho cxtromo of vio lence, reckless of consequences ; who de claimed against tho Constitution and tho Union, against tho Church of Jesus Christ and the teachings of the Biblo. Such lea ders wo could not follow. Such a course wo woro bound to repudiate. Wo henco adopted tho appullation Anti-Sluvery, a torm proporly expressive of tho sentiments of tho great body of the Northern people. Tho antipodes of tho abolitionists wero a few rabid, "firo-catiiig" pro-slavery men of tho South. Theso extremes agreed in ono thing, viz., cither that their opposite must bo put down, or tho country divi ded, Unhappily for tho Southern people, thoy fell in with their fanatics, seceded, took up arms, and commenced tho war. If the people of tho cotton States had been patient, there would havo been no strife beyond a war of words. Or if the pcoplo of New-England had taken up the senti ment of Garrison & Co., raised armies, seized forts and arsenals, and threatened tho overturning of tho Government, then the Nation would havo directed its forces Northward. Aud then, too, tho war would have been on tho samo priuciplo as it is now; that is, it would havo boon waged for tho preservation of tho Union, and the supremacy of tho Constitution "and the laws. It is fashionable with us, at tho North, to say that slavery is the cause of the war; but the belief is even more nearly universal at tho South, that abolition is tin causo. It is well to look at causes, if wo look wisely. We would not pretend to decide between tho antagonists. This much is ccrtaiu : If there had been no slavery, wc had not had the war ; aud if there had been no abolitionism, tho peace of the land would have flown yet as a river. The two impinging on each other has causod tho disruption. Tho powder aud tho spark, in contact, produce the explosion. Abolitionism cannot dwell peacefully with slavery, but abolition is by no moans the synonym of frcodom. Freedom dwelt intermingled with, and sido by sido with slavery for near half a contury after our natioual establishment in 1776, in cntiro peace. And freedom was not inactive either. But sho was just. She acted where sho had the right to net, aud avoid ed all undue assumptions. Sho abolished slavery in Pennsylvania, in New-England New-York, and New-Jersey in scveu of tho origional thirteen States. Sho also prohibited Slavory's approach to tho ter ritory of the North-West, thus layiug the foundation of tho freo States of Ohio, Iu - diana, Illinois, Michigan, and Wisconsin. Sho had also, by her peaceful excellence, won so far upon Slavory, that the question of abolition was entertained with much favor iu threo other of tho origional States Delaware, Maryland and Virginia, and m tho new State of Kentucky. But then fanaticism arose and attached itself to freedom, claiming her as its own; aud tneuco iorwaru iroeuotn s progress was marred, Sinco then no State has abolish ed ilavory ; and in no State whero slavery exists can abolition bo now advocated Wendell Phillips lately spoke in tho Smithsonian Institute, Washington, and is reported as saying : (Wo quote from tho Pittsburg Gtizttle.) ' 'Now tho reason why I think so much of tho Message of tho President is because I read iu it 'fitness to govern,' I do not think he has entered Canaan, but he has sot his faco Zionward. Tho first line of tho Messago goes to my heart. Now I lovo tho Constitution, though my friend (Dr. Picrpont,) who sit3 besido mo here, has heard ino curso it a hundrod times ; and I shall again if it doesn't mean justico. I havo labored nineteen years to tako uinetccn States out of this Union, and if I havo spent any nineteen years to tho satis faction of my Puritan conscience, it was "thoso nineteen years. Tho child of six generations of Puritans, 1 was taught at a mothor's kneo to lovo purity boforo peaco. And when Daniel Webster taught mo that, tho Union meant making white mon hyp ocrites aud black men slaves; that it meant lynch low in tho Caroliuas and mob law in Massashusotts ; that it meant lies in tho pulpit aud gags in tho Senate ; when I was told tho comentingof tho Union was returning slaves to their matters in tho namo of tho God I loved, and had boon taught to honor, I cursed tho Constitution and the Union, aud endeavored to break it; and thank God, it is broken. But when, last gummcr, I saw, or thought I saw, that this Union could not exist unless it meant justice; when I thought I saw ninotcen millions ofpooplo already driftiug with a current as inevitable ai Niagara, in this direction; nnd when to-day I hear tho voico of tho President, as I think, ut oriaffiriimrs?ntiraout, I cannot but accept of tho wholevthrty-four States. I am a Yankeo born, and will buy at any time at a fair price." What a spirit 1 What a confoBsion I IIo has cursed the Constitution a hundred times, IIo has labored nineteen years to take ?tinetecn States out of the Union, IIo has cursed the Constitution and the Union and endeavored to break it; and ho thanks God it is broken. Was over a So cossionist moro hostilo to his country, so far as spirit and language aro concerned? Who is most hostilo to tho Constitution and tho Union, as established by our honored fathers I Is it Wendell Phillips, or Jef ferson Davis ? Lloyd Garrison, in his paper, tho Lib crator, in giving his objections to tho Pres ident's lato message, is quoted assaying: "Fifth The President is at war with common-sonso, sound reason, tho teach ings of history, tho instincts and aspira tions of human naturo, tho laws of politi cal economy, and tho uniform results of emancipation, when ho says.' 'In my judg moot, gradual and not sudden emancipa tion, is bettor for all, in tho mcro finan cial or pecuniary view' because no such paltry consideration is allowable, even if it wero (as it surely is not,) well founded Ethically and pecuniarily, immediate emancipation is bettor for all parties; and tho President is culpable for kecpiug up the old dolusion of 'gradualism.' Away with it!" No wonder he should thus oppose tho President's views, when ho regards the Constitution of tho1 United states "as a covenant with death and an agreement with hell." The New York Obscivcr, of March 13th says that Parker Pillsbury, at a Convcn tion held in Albany, Feb. 7th and 8th, riiado an address, -occupyiug fivo columns of the Jlnli-Shivery Standard, in which occur these sentences : "I do not wish to sec this Government prolonged another day iu its present form. Ou tho contrary, I have been for twenty years attempting to overthrow the present dynasty. If I do not misjudgo tho Constitution, whatever may have been its .real character, it was never so much an engine of cruelty and of crime as it is the present hour. It seem to nic tho present Administration is, on tho one hand, the weakest aud on the other hand, the icickcdcsl, wo have ever had. Mr. Buchanan's Administration is under infi nite obligations to it for casting its wicked ness and imbecility so far iiito the shade. "I cannot joiu in tho congratulations I so often hoar as to the hopefulness of the sigus of the times. 1 do not want to see honcfulncss. I am not reioiccd at tidings of victory to tho Northern arm. 1 iambi far rather sec defeat' I) . i Vojoico in defeat and disaster rather than . . i r i iii- ,i in victory, because I do not believe the North is in any condition to improve any i.reat sunr-.ss whieli nmv attend iu arms. j I think the abolitionists fail sufficiently to recognize one great fact, and that is the persistent) determined, God-defying, hcav-cn-provokiug impenitence of the North. ' 1 Holding theso opinions I do not desire success to tho Northern army. - T cjov. lpr. na linvn u-np lnf us have all its disasters and all its defeats 1 if the condition of the slave is not to be ' changed." ( AVe havo not treasured up tho libels of thcso men on tho Christain religion, its ministers and churches, and if wo lmd dnnn j so, it would be wrong for us to present . them largely to our readers. Ono sample wc may give. olt. 1'iUsbury, m tho ad dress alluded to, in speaking of a misgui-' ; says : i "John Brown, liko a mighty angel, came down from heaven, and if the powers would havo permitted, would havo bound thut dragon (of secession) for a thousand Millennial years forever. You seized that first, grandest hero of the nineteenth cen-, tury aud hung him upon tho cross tho sublimcst, as well as saddest, spectacle since tho scene upon Calvary, that veiled 1 the very heavons in sackcloth and darkness. John Brown taught us the way; but tho pcoplo would not loam. Ho camo, the vory God made flosh, and pointed the road; But tho people aud tho Government would not walk theroin. lie was, almost literally, the way and tho truth, and ho would havo been tho lifo; but tho nation was not worthy. I sometimes think that on that fearful morning, tho second of December, 1859, as hobowod his head and gavo up tho ghost, tho recording angol wrote iu the ledgers of heaven, of this na tion, it is finished." What treasongainst tho country I What a travesty of Scripture! What blua phomy against God ! Such is Abolitionism, as exhibited by these its loader. 'lb the Editor of the Columbia Democrat.
