TEIIIRSDAY MOIMING, MAY 1
The Union Platform of New York.
The Republican and Deruotratie Union
members of the Legislature of New York, In
clueing the session, issued an Address to their
constituents, laying down a platform for the
fall elections, on which all true and loyal men
,may rally. We oopy below the principles on
which they profess their willingness to go be
fore the people, and which they_believe will
carry the country through the perils which
environ it. These principles meet with our
hearty approbation, and we commend them
to the attention of the people of this State:
A great and comprehensive syetemaf finan
cial policy,. commensurate with on? present
and future want., meet be inaugurated and
administered; the re-establishment of the au
thority of the
: National Government has yet
to be effected; and the mode of treatment
toward . persens to .robelliori,, their property
and their slaves, has yet to be determined.
We must vindicate the ifitelligence as well as
the patriotism of our people, and put to:shame
the tyrants of the Old- Worlff, whit laughed
at our calamities, and predicted the downfall
of popular government and free institution's.
And, what is perhaps a more difficult prob
lem lain, the system and maehinery of a free
and representative commonwealth must -be
' made to move on and ork harmoniously'
with a heavy National do t, and an onerous
‘
and searching taxation. he experience,of
the past, and our owit - Rev utionary history,
should admonish us that o r greatest perils
may yet lie hidden in the future, .ind that it
will require the united efforts and energies,
for years to come, of all true, loyal, and pat
riotic men to carry us in safety through the
'norms and dangers that still beset and
threaten our way.
Whatever differences of opinion may have
hitherto prevailed, or may still prevail, on the
general subject of Slavery, no one can doubt
that it is, if not the primary cause, the pretext
any powerful agent of the present rebellion.
The elaveholding interest has aimed for many
years to control the political action of the
General
'subservient to its ow aggrandizement. Government, and to make that action
izement. - The
result of the Presid tial election. of 1860 ,
Government, a nd
as it was by the efforts of conspirators
I in the Southern States, signalized the defeat
of that endeavor, and the disclosures of the
census of the same year proved conclusively
thatthie defeat was final. The political an
, premacy of the olaveholding interest—the
sway which that interest had previously ex
ercised over the General Government—had
been forever overthrown... To revenge this
' defeat; and reveree by force the - ferdiet of the
ballot-box, was the primary purpose of the
rebellion.
That purpose hat failed; and the permanent
Welfare and settled sentiment of the country
,forbid any attempt to soften this failure or
qualify in any degree its disastrous iffects
upon Slavery itself. The rebellion has thus
tar proved fatal to the interest it was designed
toaerre.- Thehlows of the war which Slavery I
invoked have fallen with mortal weight upon
Slavery' itself. The whole &lee structure of
the institution has been shaken to its found's-
, tion. Not only have its sway ever the *chitin- I
istration of the National Government, end its
hold upon the respectful toleration of the coun-
I try' been rudely and thoroughly broken, but
the, local laws and alleges upon which it rested
bevel:leen seriously affected by the presence of
our 'incites and the Measures - of military ad- i
ministration which the emergencies of the
country have required. However men may
,pave differed' hitherto as to the power of
Congress over Slavery, there is now very
little difference among those who have
acted together in support of the Gov-1
ernment as to the practical necessities
of the future. We all agree that Slavery must
never again be permitted Si in'erease Its power
by invading' tree territory or bringing new
Slave States into the Union therefrom—that

Preparation for a Battle.
THE SIEGE OF FORT PILLOW
Cala°, April 28.—The steamer Estella him
just arrived from Pittsburgh Landing, but
brings no later Intelligence from (ten. Hal
leek's army. She confirms reports previously
received of a probable advance and battle to
day.
The steamer " B " arrived from Fort Pillow
at two o'clock this morning. There had been
no material change in the affairs at the fleet.
There was some occasional firing by the mor
tars„ and some occasional reply by the eine
' my!a batteries. It is probable that the in
telligence of the fall of New Orleans, which
was last evening sent by eteamer to Commo
dore. Foot, may lateten' l matters below and put
a period to the hitherto cautious policy of the
flag officer. t. .
The "B" brought to Cairo six refugees from
Memphis, from which city they departed one
week ago yeaterday.: - They had secured,
through the connivance of a Union merchant,
their passports to Ilumbolt, but instead of
going in that direction,' they procured a skiff
and crossed the Mississippi. to the Arkansas
shore, about six miles below Randolph, and
taking to the swamp and-bottom lands; Which
are hero overflowed for an Immense distance.
They rowed hack 8 miles or more from the
river and after severe trials and soffering
reached Oscoela. From here they mired' to
the fleet and reported to Commodore 'Foote.
They say a majority of ths people in Memphis
are Union, but aro compelled to advocate se
cession sentiments to preserve their property.
There are several secret Union societies, who
assist their members td::emigrate ' and are
pledged to '' aid. in the re-estabitshment of
Federal authority. 'Fitir men are known to
be on their way North:by the same route
• ;taken by these.
i . s.oens. Price. and Van })ern recently passed
through Memphis on their way to Corinth,
leaving about 8,000 troops to overawe the city
and enforce the conscription amt. : Joe Thomp
son is In Memphis, and has hisquartere at the
Gayouso House. There are 5,060 bales of cot
ton, 7,000 hogsheads of sugar and 20,000 bar
rels of molassess now lying upon the levee at
Memphis, of which the ,elettou will be burnt,
and the sugar and molasses rolled into the .
river, on the approach of . the Federal forces.
Citizens and newspapers are opposed to burn
ing the city, but the soldiers:mid cogetry peo
ple favor it.
The Memphis Argus is unsidered the expo
nent of the Union sentiment, and is not al
lowed telegraphic dispatches. The Safety
Committee talk of suppressing . lL
The Legislature passed the militia law with-
out *quorum. The more violent of the rebels
in the country consider Memphis a "Union
hole," and threaten to - wipi it out.
On Wednesday succeeding the battle of
Pittsburgh, Gen. Prentiss and 2,3813 Union
prisoners passed through Memphis. The
seen were in good spirits, and kindly treated
by the inhabitants, particularly the Irish and
German women. Citizens contented them
selves with waving handkerchiefs and look
ing the interest they dare not openly express.
Prentiss made a Union speech to his men,
and the citizens cheered him. Provost Mar
shal L. D. McKiesock bide him remain si
lent.. Prentiss fold bile ho had four to one
more friends in Memphis than he (51eKis
rock), and said to the citizens, "KeeP quiet
fora few weeks, ,and you will have an Oppor
tunity to cheer the oldtleiglo your beans'
content." Our soldiers /meg the Star kiang
led Banner, Red, White and Blue, Happy
Lind of Canaan, and _Old John Brown, as
they were starting on the cars for-Tuscaloosa,
Alabama, where they are at present con
fined. There aro 114 Union officers among
the . prisoners. Beauregard claims to have
taken 2,000 prisoners.
Tho Memphie and Ohio, Memphis ,k Charles
ton, and Miosissippi ,h Tennessee railroads
are canneeted by a union track to give greater
facility for moving rolling stock and provis
ions in case of Federal attack. All old iron
and braes was being collected and forwarded
below. The citizens think Fort Pillow will
be taken by the flotilla, but the soldiers and
newspapers consider it impregnable.
The Confederate lois '
all told, at Pittsburgh,
was shout 4,000-1,000 wounded are in 'Mem
phis. Government machinery, commissary
and tuartennaster's stores are removed.
Itutheright that the fate of the Confeder
acy bangs upon the Corinth battle. If beaten
they have no resource lett but the organiza
tion ofguerrillabands and predatory warfare. .
Four deserters from Poet Pillow limited at
the flotilla on Sunday morning, and reported
twenty-five more in the swamps oppOsite. A
tug was sent for them. They say the Confed
-1 orate army at the fort is greatly demoralized,
1 whole companies refusing to do ordinary mil
itary duty. Large numbers of ioldiera are in
irons ; their term of enlistment had expire?,
and their officers wished to compel them tp
serve two years longer. At the fort one mah
had been killed and a dozen wounded by the
explosion of our shells.
The river is rising rapidly--two Moho
within the tut ten hours. It seems ca w i
possible to avert the great calamity. !,
A dispatch was received this morning from
Pittsburgh, dated Sunday evening, Tip to
that hour there had been no fighting.
There was a prospect yesterday of a Onfliet
between the civil and military authdrities,
upon the eternal nigger question. The United

GEN. MITORP,L'S OPERATIONS
how Colonel Tnrehin Took Tusemnbia
We found Tuscumbia occupied by a portion
of Gen. Mitchel's division, under command
electing Brigadier General Turchin, the Col
onel of the Nineteenth Illinois regiment from
Chicago. The Colonel is a' dashing go-ahead
officer, and with his equally , dashing .and go
ahead command is holding an extremely pre- .
carione situation In the heart of the enemy's
country. He is, however, vigilant and wide
awake,- and if the rebels got any advantage of
him, they will have to get up very early in
the morning. •
It has already been announced that Gen.
Mitchel was holding one hundred and eight
suites of the Memphis and Charleston - railroad,
but there are very few, unless cognisant of
tho position,mho are • aware of the dashing
character of such a movement.. Can. Mitchel
first moved on Huntsville, one of the principal
towns of Northern Alabama, and so rapictwere
his movements that he completely surprised
the inhabitants, to say nothing of several
rebel officers who wore quietly luxuriating. in
the place. Here ho captured fifteen locomo
tives and enfficient rolling stock to move a
large army.
Not waiting for the intelligence of his ar
rival to spread abroad, Gen...M. immediately
sent out portions of his division by the rail
road on either side of him—one to the east,
to take possession of. the road as far as Star-
canon, where it Is intersected by the Nashville
'and Chattanooga Railroad, and another to.the
west as far as Decatur, where it cenneoted
with the Decatur and Nashville' road. The
command of the latter exhibition was entrust
ed to Con. Turchin. His 'aeminand arrived
-at Decatur just in the very nick of time to says

on the approach of. the Federals they beat a

back. In the hands of a determined bend of
men the fortifications could have been held
with considerable success against our forces.-
They had four small forts and a long line of
breastworks, all constructed of cotton, and
well arranged. There were about 800 bales of
the cotton, which, of course, fell Into our
bands,
A further advance toward the West laving

Suppression of the African Slave
Trade--A new Treaty. •
The Senate yesterday, we understand,
gave its unanimous consent to a treaty
recently negotiated by the Secretary of
State, Mr. Seward, on the part of our gov
ernment, and Lord Lyons, Minister of tag
land, on behalf of his government, which,
if we are correctly informed of its rovi
sionk, will more effectually re. 0160 a source
of constantly recurring irritation between
the two countries than any International
compact which has been entered into be
tween them since the Treaty of Ghent.
At a period as far back as that during the
Presidency of Mr. Monroe, after "the gov
ernment of the United States had by a
solemn act declared the African slave
trade piracy, Mr. John Quincy Adams,.
Secretary of State, negotiated a treaty
with the British Minister by which, for
the more effectual suppression of the slave
trade, the right of search of Tommie under
the American flag was yielded to British
cruisers both in the waters of the African
coast and those of America.• This treaty
oFconvention Was submitted to the Senate
oft the United, States for its consent, and
was confirmed by that body • (two-thirds
of course consenting) with a single amend
ment, to wit, striking out the privilege of
search in American waters. This amend
ment net being acceded to by England the
treaty failed; and from that time to this,
through various unsuccessful efforts to ad
jnst.it, the question has remained. open
one party frequently exercising the right
of visit,, if not of search, and the: other
resisting and complaining of it as air in
sult and aggression, often threatening
eerione misunderstanding between the two
nations, nntil the present moment, when
the counsels of wisdom, litimanity. and 'eon
cession have happily prevailed, and the
question has been settled . . unanimously,
finally, and, from what we learn of the
treaty, felicitously—conferring honor on
the distinguished negotiators, who will re
ceive, as they richly *serve, the thanks
and plaudits of the friends of peace and
humanity throughout Christendom.—Nu

Terrible Tragedy in Buffalo
On Tlurraday morning, Moses laniard, a
Frenchman, accidentally shot his wife
under the supposition that she was a :burg
lar who had entered theroein. He states
thit on EU; 'rotting' 'home the' night before
he was informed by his wife that some
men had endeavored to gain admission to
the house during hie absence. She per=
sanded him to load his gun,. which he
placed by the bedside. In his statement.
he says :
- I was woke by some noise litho moiii
ing, and found that the light on the table
had been put out. It was almost dark in
*the room, but I could see'somebody stand
ing between the little table and 'the head
of the bed. I was so excited that I didn't
think of its being my wife—remembering
whatl had told her when I wont to sleep--
and snatched my gun from the corner,
raised quickly, and with my back to the
foot of the bed, fired at the shape. I didn't
know whether I aimed at the head, or where.
I heard a fall after I bad fired,' antlgetting
up and slightly opening the front door to
let the light in, saw it. was my wife. The
;saran over the window made the rooms°
dark before.
The discharge of the gun attracted the
attention of some officers who entered the
house. The room- was a small one, about
fifteen feet square. At the' ftirther: left
hand corner stood abed, - and in front of
the bed, prostrate on thelipor, with face
downward, lay the Corpse 'of a woman.
'Half th e upper part of her head was shot
off, and a pailful of blood and brains sur
rounded it. The wall, beside the bed,
about six feet above the floor, was spotted
with brains and perforated with shot, and
a chair directly beneath held the mass of
brains that had fallen. Standing just in
front stood Menard kimself,.half dressed,
and holding his troweers in his hand. In
the middle of the bed lay an infant slum
bering.
Menard was taken into custody. •
