What the-Rebel Papers Say.
a (From the Norfolk Day Book, April 29th.)
About the only consolation we can draw
from the above is, that the iron-clad steamer
Louisiana is "safe." "Safe," how? "Safe,"
where ? Was it a "safe" plan to send a steam
er away from the city which She was built to
protect, to a part of the river where the enemy
were not milting hurried operations for its de
struction, While they were operating much
more threateningly nearer that city. The
Louisiana is " sate I" But is the city of New
Orleans " safe," with the enemy's fleet in the
harbor threatening the bombardment every
moment? Whose blundering management is
this? Is the Secretary of the Navy responsi
ble for this; if not, who is?
While speaking on this subject we would
like to know if it is really true that out iron
clad vessels are not permitted to move an inch
unless by the orders of the Secretary of the
.Navy ? We have heard it announced as afact
that such is the case, and that their command
ersare Bed up with such instructions and re
strictions as . to completely prevent them prov
ing of any value whatever WI a means of in
juring the enemy. If this is really so we
think the sooner we procure glees cases to put
our iron clad steamers in, to keep the ene
my's. wooden gunboats from hurting them,
the better. .
[From the Richmond Dispatch, April ail
NOW ORLEANR.
We regret to say that the news we-have
this morning is by no meansagreoable.
dal dispatcher received yesterday confirm the
fall of New Orleans; coetrary to our belief,
and the belief of nine-tenths of this commu
nity. The enemy's fleet approached the city
and demanded a surrender. Gen. Lovell re
fused to surrender, but evacuated the city
with his , troops, falling back to Camp Moore,
on the Jackson Railroad,after destroying cot
ton and stores which ho was unable to remove.
The iron-clad steamer Mississippi was burnt to
prevent her falling into the pone - on of the
'enemy. Nothing is said about the Louisiana;
but the supposition at present is that she was
scuttled.
Camp Moore is at Tangipaha, seventy-eight
miles from New Orleans, on the Jackson Rail
road. Gen. Lovell could have paused atPon
chatonla, forty-eight - miles from the city, on
the same road, which is a high and healthy
locality.
The publie would fain be informed of the
causes of the fall of New Orleans. One ru
mor says that the "iron-clad, bomb-proof'
steamer Louisiana was sunk the first fire from
the enemy's mortar boats, and it would be a
relief to know-whether, in fact, she played
any part in the matter. It was believed here
that'ebe was tested with fifty rounds of ball
crone hundred and fifty-four pounds weight,
Without doing her any damage, and' much was
therefore expected from her. We eipress the
universal sentinteet 'when we say, hat the mys
tery attendin - y - the fall of ..New Orkaas should
reesioe a speedy solution.
[From the same paper.]
Inc ram, or time okLe.i.Xl3.
The Darin' state of enspenee in which this
oily existed for two or three days has at last
ended. New Orleans is in the poem/ ins of The
- enemy. . It was evacuated by General Lovell,
who has removed his Tortes to camp Moore,
on the Jackson Railroad.
This is a beery blow ; it is useless to deny,
, But ticiwere anticipatieg it, and the pub.
lid mind had already become prepared for it,
twfore the truth had - been fully ascertained.
It is a heavy. blow ; but it is very far from
being a fatal blow. We may expect to hear
of disasters wherever the enemy's gunboats
can be brought to bear on all the points still
in; our possession. Give him all of there—
every one—and still he is at far from his ob
jeet as he was this time - last year. Ilatters
fell, Hilton Ifead fell, Roanoke Island fell,
Donelson fell, New Orleans has fatten. Bat
our - great armies are still in the field. They
bare not. fallen—they have not - been worsted
—they have always beaten the eemy wher
ever they have encountered him.' When they
slialltavve beew beaten 'and dispersed eo that
they can never- rally again, then it may be
time to feel gloomy about oar prospects.
Until that time shall have arrived it were un
manly to despond, fir less to think of aban
doniug'ehi cause.. Even then the last resource
,ofis brave nation, .resolved not to be enslaved,
remains to on.--. We an even then, as other
nations have done beforauVresolve ourselves
into a guerrilla force, composed of the whole
conntry, and light the battle for life or death
throughout. a million-of equarnmiles.

upon the main land opposite, are as yet above
the flood, excepting the batteries known as
Ripley batteries, on the Tennessee shore. -
Here there is an unbroken expanse of water
from the Mississippi 'to Reelfoot Lake. A.
large amount of cannon and heavy ordnance,
stores, captured from the rebels on the main
shore, are still lying in the bay, which sets
in from the Mississippi: They cannot be re
moved until the water subsides. Every
thing perishable—ammuhition, forage, and
provisions—is either taken away or piled
above high water mark upon the bluffs oppo
site the Island.
New Madrid is a vast' lake, the only points
of land visible from the river being the upper

• Point Pleasant and Riddle's Point are entire
ly drowned out. Tiptonvilleis two feet above
water yet, but the current is making eaten-
MVO inroads upon the bank, and, unless it
speedily subsides, will do incalculable damage •
to lands in that vicinity.
The Forty-seventh Indiana, Colonel Sleek,
is located here; the Thirty-fourth Indians,
with the Sixtieth and. Seventieth Wisconsin
Batteries, at New Madrid, and the Fifteenth
Wisconsin Scandevian, Col.. Helg, at Island
No. 10.
The people about Tiptonville complain that
the Wisconsin regiments are Abolitionists,
and advocate the outrigeous doctrine that a. I
state of freedom is preferable to a state of !
bondage for the black Mani and that, in con.;
sequence, the tenure by which slaves in
that vicinity are held is exceedingly frail.
Numbers are running away daily, and owners
broadly insinuate that they are concealed
somewhere about the Wisconsin companies.
No such complaints ire made concerning In-
dimes regiments. No contrabands are allow
ed about their camp.
Within a week one hundred or move rebel

of the United States of the property of th se
who are in rebellion, or giving aid and, com
fort to it, and who may be beyond the reach
of judicial process. Tho bill, per se, does not
confiscate - the property of any one. While I
shall claim for Government full power over
the subject of slavery, I would not at this
time, go beyond the provisions of this bill. I
would giro freedom to the slave of every rebel
and traitor, and after that I would look con
.fidently to the pulley recommended by the
President to work out gradual emancipation.
Greater security has been attempted to be
throWn around slavery- than is accorded to
any other interest or right. I deny the le
gality of any such' provision in behalf of
slavery. It has no constitutional basis at all.
-Life and liberty are to be secondary to the
I preserration and safety of slavery. The pro
perty of the nation is to be subjected to every
contribution ; the lives of thousands 'of citi
sees to be sacrificed; hundreds of thousands
of widows and orphans cast upon the charity
of friends' for support. The life and liberty
of all are at the disposal of the Government;
but slavery alone claims exemption—the cause
of the rebellion and the parent of all the ca
lamities which are inflicted upon us. This
great assault upon the nation has no other
foundation than slavery; and amid the im
mense sacrifices of life and treasure of this
hour, and the universal wreck of interest,
shall the slaveholding traitor grasp more se
curely hilhuman chattel? No Sirl not if
My voice or my vote can reach him.
Mr. {Femur was not less emphatic. Ile
sitid : .
lam strongly in favor of some bill of this
character. Some such bill 'ought to have
passed at the last session of Congress, but we
seem to have gone on as though we had_ no
war upon our hands. We musk be alive to
the exigencies of the hour. This monstrous
rebellion musk be destroyed, and destroyed
speedily ; and, as a means for_such an end, I
have looked earnestly for the passage of some
proposition for the oonfiscation. of the prop
erty of those engaged in rebellion against the
Government. We have forborne until for
bearance has become dishonor.
It is time lawlessness and treason should
cease, whether under the pretended guise of
rebellion, or under the more insidious guise
of a free speech, which gloats over 'every ob
stacle brought forward to prevent a restora
tion of the Union. It is time rapine and mur
•der were ca led by their right names, and
punished as they deserve.. I can have no
possible leniency for those men, - educated
at the expense of the Government, who
turn against it in armed rebellion. We
must make it understand that we do
tint educate men for service in rebel armies.
Yet I would deal leniently with the misguided
masses,
and I would prefer that the President
should have some power to grant a general
amnesty. I halo no patience, Sir, to listen to
long discussions about the power of Congress
to pass such an act as this. Congress has the
power to declare war and to suppress rebellion,
and baring these, I take it they have the'
power to provide for the vigorous prosecution
of these objects. The greater power certainly
includes rosier.- Neither . dual: I stop to
argue the Constitutionality of this measure.
Bid I may say that in time of steak peril to
free institutions; when dieloyal citizens rise
in rebellion to spurn the Constitrition end defy
the laws,khere is a supreme and absorbing
ditty to which all others are subject-4h° duty
of self-nreservation, safety to the Government'
— trim dieroption, and to the Constitution you
talk about :from , . annihilation. Everything
opposed to its existence must be made to yield
. or : be swept away_with an iron hand, that the
nation may live. All minor conliderations,
mind be neglected and all inferior interests
mintkperisk. • -
I RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE
Passion Week was observed by the Epic
coPal Churches. in Pittsburgh with solem=
'nines 'snitible to the °veal. ' The nil:asters
ef the city and immediate vicinity, in ad
dition to their several parochial services,
held a union meeting for all the congrega
tiOns in the evening of midi day, with ap
propriate discourses from different clergy
men. These were well attended, especially,
We are informed , the night of the inetitu
lion of the Supper of the Lord;iwhen the
Sacrament was administered to a large
nomber of persons: The- first Sermon in
the series was by the Rev. David C. Page,
D. ; D., followed by Rev. Jabal Hodges, Rey.
Mr. Crompton, Rev. Mr.- Swope, Rev. Mr.
Sweet, and a clergyman from the East
supplied the place of Rev. Dr. Van-Deusen.
Tile seventh discourse, owing to the illness
of-the RevAlr,Slattery, was premthed by,
request, by the; Bei. Dr. Page. We clip
'from the Episcopal Recorder the fel:00ot
,•
invaference to the latter sermon:
It was a thoughtful composition on the
aliMles of the dead bat:Wean death and the
resurrection. Whatever men may doubt,
disbelieve or deny, that none of the saints
are in heaven save Enoch, Elijah,-and-possi-
bly - Moses (compare Decd. xxxlv. 6, Jude
ix; Matt. xtriL 3), 'is &Tacit revealed by God
inlhis written Word. The Roman Church
Offers prayers to the sainta, as if they were
in! heaven, and. the resuiTection was al-•
ready passed - ; and the Protestant Church
believes the same, though prayers are not,
offered by them. Roman traditions should .
not be permitted_ to stand in the way of
DiVine revelation on the right hand, or on
the left.
