frain from expressing the opinion that his
speech was a most remarkable one to be
delivered by a Republican speaker at a
Republican meeting. tie commenced: by
iidininistering a powerful rebuke to his
partisan friends for stigmatizing as • `trai
tors" all who disagreed with them in poli
tics. These men bad gone froM our midst
side by side with Republicans, their bleed
washed upon every battle field, their dead
bodies had been carried thro' our streets,
followed bye whole communityin tears and
sorrow. "These men are not traitors,":said
the Colonel, " lind you know it.'' He
then spoke of the Emancipation Procla
tion. Ho was not prepared to say he
would have issued it, had he been in Mr.
Lincoln's position, and he now declared
that if it stood in the way of the rF store
tion of the Union it ought to fall. that the
Republic may live. The most remarka
ble feature of the speech was that it did
not endorse a single measure of the ad
ministration, while the speaker conclud
ed with the significant declaration that
he considered his first duty dne to his
country, and would follow that duty,
though it might lead him into a different
path from that in which he bad heretofore
traveled. It is scarcely necessary to add
that this portion of the Colonel's speech
met with no sympathy or applause from
the ' leaguers.' "

From Paria.
PARIS, April 7, 15!
It any reliance is to be placed upon the
statements of men high in authority in
the French government tiv.re is now no
earthly hope to the South from French in
tervention, the Emperor having entirely
abandoned the idea which he once en ter--
Mined; anel, satklied that in a eery short
time, if not interfered with, the fe.deral
government will succeed in crushing out
the tact spark of the rebellion. f have it
from most unqUestionable authority that
such a statement was made only the day
before yesterday by one who should know,
if any other than himself may, the ideas of
the Emperor. he determination now ex hi
bited in the matter, the reaction in the
ranks of the Democratic party, the fall in
gold and exchange, have all had a very
decided effect here upon the people and
the "powers that he," and convinced them
that the bottom of the rebellion must soon
fall out, while the loyal States, whichthe
secession agents in Europe have always
taken such particular pains to represent
as on the verge of disintegration, are
more firmly united and stronger than ever.
Indeed, I hear that each is the disgust of
Mr. Slidell at the present attitude of affairs
that he is now in favor of the abandon
ment of his mission and Mr. Mason's by
the Ist of June next, in case by that time
the "confederacy" is not recognized by
England t -and France, and that he has so
advised hiiigovernment.
"Copperhead" Platform
The Rock Island Argus, a Democratic
daily paper that is never wrong, and con

form, and we hope that all onr people,
copperheads and all others, will not only
adopt it, but live up to it:
Oar Copperhead Platibrm.
1. In favor of prosecuting the tsar with
he utmost vigor upon the rebels in arms
against the government of the United
States, until the rebellious States will ne
gotiate for peace on terms by which the
whole Union can be preserved.
2. When that time arrives, stop fighting
and arrange for peace on that basis, giv
ing the South fall security that her righta,
under the constitution of the T'nited
States, shall be preserved.
In favor of maintaining the sui.,rem
acy of the civil over the military power of
the government, outside of the immediate
sphere of military operations in the field.
4. In favor of maintainingall the pro
visions of the Constitution of the United
States, and of the constitutions of the
several States.
5. In favor of enforcing all the laws
of the United States, and of the several
States.
A. In favor of maintaining free speech
a free press, free courts, and free elec

7. In favor of =Raining the right to
criticise any measure or act of the consti
tuted authorities, and the right of the peo
ple to peaceably assemble to consult as to
the public good, and petition for redress
of grievances.
8. In. favor of putting down the rebel
lion by bullets, and abolitionism by bal
lots.
9. Opposed to the abolition policies of
the administration, as tending to prolong
the war, and hopelessly divide the Union.
10. Opposed to the dishonesty and ex
travagance of those in office under Abe
Lincoln ; opposed to the indolent and im
becile management of the war; opposed
to the using our brave soldiers to protect
officers and thei r friends in speculation an d
plunder; opposed to the reckless parti
zanship of the administration—and in fa

From the New Orleans Era of the 14th
By way of Matamoras, we have received
news from the city of Mexico to the 27th
laarch, conveying intelligence of a grand
battle between the French forces, advan
cing on Puebla, and the Mexicans defend
ing that place- _
We translate froM an extra of the Na
tional Guard; of Matamora, of April Pith,
as follows
"By letters from San Louis de Potosi,
dated,the 27th, we learn that the invaders
commenced their advance upon our works,
and made a general attack; that they were
repulsed to beyond ChoLuca; that the vic
tory of this day was complete; that the
enemy had been rendered unable to con
tinue his operations; that we have sent
4,000 men to occupy Orizaba.
"This news is confirmed by private let
ters from Monterey, which adds that the
French lost, in the battle of the 27th. GO
pieces of artillery and 8,000 men. The
person who writes is worthy of all confi
ience. We have obtained a complete
triumph. What will they say to this who
have considered our country to be weak
and cowardly. That they will make the
best soldiers in the world. They eclipse
the star of liberty. Look out Napoleon

Hear Admiral Farrago:it's Secretary Mr.

sloop Pensacola, off New Orleans, April
nth, I,Qel t, to •'Commodore H. W. Mor
rig, commanding lower division of West
Gulf Blockading Squadron," which re
port has been remised at the Navy De_
partment, that on the morning of the 27th
of March, about day break, Ilea? Admiral
Farragnt, in the Hartford, engaged the
rebel battery at Warrenton, three miles
below Vicksburg, and passed below it;
that on the morning of the 20th of March
the Albatross, loaded with supplies from
a barge, floated down by Admiral Porter,
also passed the Warrenton battery and
joined the flag-ship. Secretary Gabandan
confirms the report that the rebel wharf
boat Vicksburg broke away from her
moorings in a high wind, and floated down
to near where Admiral Farragut was anch
ored. She drifted ashore.
Upon examination it was ascertained
that her machinery, guns and ammunition
had been removed, only four muskets and
accoutrements being found, supposed to
belong to the guard. While the Admiral
was hesitating what disposition he would
make of the vessel, the rebels, on the 30th
of March ceme down and borned.her.
The Switzerland, Hartford and Alba
tross, hying furnished with ample supplies
from Gen. Grant and Admiral Porter, and
the damages to the Switzerland being re
paired, the latter passed Warrenton bat
tery on the Slat ult., and 'at daylight the
little squadron got tinder way and pro
ceeded down the river to a Mr. Turner's
. plantation, where, on its passage up, the
wreck of the Indianola was seen. But no
trace of the wreck was now to bo seen,—
The Admiral learned that it had slid off
into deep water during a late gale.
On the afternoon of the Ist of April,
l'arragut engaged the rebel batteries at
Grand Gulf, consisting of two or three
heavy guns, sent down from Vicksburg.
One of them was mounted upon a steamer
which had been concealed up the "tag
Black river,'' The enemy also bade light
field battery. Two rebel shots struck the
Switzerland twice, doing no damage. The
Albatross was struck twice, but not dam•
aged. The Hartford was struck once, the
shot hitting an iron hammock stanchion,
a fragment of which was thrown forward
half the length of the ship, killing a lands
man named Jones—the only cansualty.
The squadron was about fifteen minutes
passing this battery. Anchored below
Grand Gulf that night.
At daylight next day Admiral Farragnt
proceeded to the mouth of Red river,
reaching there at sundown. On the way
down, the squadron destroyed a large
number of skiffs and flat boats. Remained
blockading the mouth of the river until
the morning of the 6th, when the squad
ron proceeded down to Bayou Sara, where
it stopped, seized upon and threw into the
river ten thousand sacks of corn" and then
proceeded on our way towards Port Hud
son, anchoring about five miles above that
place at p. m., on the 6th instant. On
the evening of the 7th, Secretary Gaban
danleft the Hartford (by means which he
does not explain) and boarded the steamer
Richmond, - off Baton Rouge, about 2p.
m: on the Bth inst. The secretary reports
the health of Farragut's sbnadron to be
good.
T4O Siege of Washington, N. C.

Washington, stating the enemy had raised
the seige at that place and were in full.
retreat. Even the guns on the "water
batteries" had been removed, and free
communication was had with our forces
at the above place. To us there seems
to be considerable mystery in this new
freak of the enemy, and it calls forth
many speculations, the most important of i
which is that the seige at Washington has
been a mere feint, while the real intent
was to procure supplies from the corm
ties adjoining, as in Hyde county ,
,partice.
titularly, large quantities of supplies have I
been reported, having but on one or two
occasions been visited by either army,
This is the construction placed upon the!
recent movements of the rebel tomes by
secession sympathizers in this place.—
Others are inclined to think that they
have been defeated at some point, or
that some movement of Hooker's army
has caused this sudden change of pro
gramme. Tole, however, is all specula-
tion. and the real truth yet remaias to be
developed.
