TUESDAY MORNING, MAY 19
THE VERGE OF LIBERTY.
The arrest and conviction of Mr. Vallan
digham, together with the-address of Gen.
Burnside, defining what he conceives to
be the limit of free discussion are attract
ing considerable attention. In the city of
New York there is but one journal, the
Times, which, justify them, and it is the
known organ of the Administration. The
Gazette, of this city, also justifies these
encrochments upon popular liberty, and
only stops short at not compelling the
people to vote for the indefinite prolonga
tion of the present Administration. This
brings us to the very verge of popular lib
erty. The Gazelle remarks :
"Far be it from us to say that true loyalty re
quires a man to pledge himself to 'vote for Abra
ham Lincoln at the next Presidential electitn, or
with tho men who elected him in IMO; but to re
sist him in his efforts to save the country, or to do
or ally anything calculated to weaken him either
morally or materially in those efforts, is treason,
and ought to be punished as such,"
The Gazette does not define what i
means by resisting the President's efforts
but if it means that opposition to some of
his measures constitutes treason, then
will some of its own party leaders be the
first to suffer. Fcr instance what does the
Gazette think of the late speech of Wen
dell Phillips, in which he said :
* • "The first slave to be emancipated
is Abraham Lincoln. of the White rouse, from
subserviency to those who surround hint. [Ap
plause.) The worst rebellion in the land is the
rebellion of the Cabinet and the Generals against
common sense and justice. The tlalleeks, the
hewards, the Blair% the t !cases, follow their own
ambition—strong mind,, had hearts. e:rrupt pur
poses, and all the means of this eventful hour
turned awry to serve them. Nor shall wo have
victory till the nation sinks them so deep that
political plummet will not reach them."
Has Vallandigham, or Wood, or Brooks,
or any of the peace merlin the Free-States,
said anything half so disrespectful and
damaging to the Administration as Wen
dell Phillips has ? And yet his sneers
and denunciations receive the applause of
the very fanatics, who are rejoicing over,
and justifying the arrest of the Ohio agi
tator. The idea of liberty with the radi
cals is simply to find fault themselves, and
impose silence upon all others.
Now listen to Henry Ward Beecher's
paper, the Independent, and see how it
burlesques the Administration, bringing
its measures into contempt. In its last
issue it remarks :
"Two pet armies are an expensive luxury. And
as it seems impossible to tear the army from the
loud embraces of Washington and move it out of
reach of the enmity of love, could we not remove
washington ? twos°, after Grant hat taken
Vicksburg and Itosecrans has hatched at Mar
freesboro,the Government should be removed to
C,neinnati or to Chicago, and give the Army of
t• e Potomac a chance? The Army of the Poto
inca, like a fond mother's only eon. has been won
den ally well brought up, but has never yet boon
- unrmenrct nutter' tin - w to goalone. Instead of
cutting_ the apron-string, however, it seems that
anotie,- one is to be sewed on."
The New York Evening Post says :
"We learn by special advices from Washing
ton that Gen. Hailed: is about to takethe field
"in person, not, it is understood, with the pur
':poso of relieving Gen. hooker from his corn
' mond, but that ho may be in the very presence
"ot transpiring events and the better able to in
ce their general direction."
" Poor hooker Happy Lee I"
It the speech of Phillips had been made
by a Democrat, or this extract produced
originally in a Democratic paper, there
would be heard one chorus of denuncia
tion from the very parties who are now
applauding them. Does the Gazette ap
prove of these Abolition denunciations,
or does it reserve all its condemnation for
Vallandigham ?
There are some Republican papers,
however, which are not disposed to aban•
don their birth-lights of free discussion.
Among these is the Now York Evening
Post. Read the following extract from
an article upon the arrest of Vallandigham
anti. contrast it with the servile teachings
of the besotted creatures who are willing
t 3 give up their right to speak in condom
nation of some of the acts of an Adminis
tration whose members Wendell Phillips
denounce as being corrupt and wicked.—
Says the Evening Post:
"Besides, no Governments, and no authorities
are to be held as above criticism or even denunci
ation. We know of no other way correcting
their faults—sparring on their esuggishness. or
restrainhig their tyrannies—than by open and
bold discussion. How can a popular gov
ernment, most of all, know the popular will,
and guide its course in the interest' of the
community, unless it be told from time to time
what the
.2 opulur convictions and wishes are ?
Despotism, like that of Louis Napoleon or the
Czar 01 Russia, have no need of this inspiration.
and control from the people, because they arei not
itdininistered in the interests of the people, and
look to those of a single man, or family, which
can very well manage its own affairs. But are •
Public lives alone in its fidelity to the sentiments
of the whole nation.
The mere conception of a nation of free
men abandoning their right to criticise the
acts of a few arrogant, domineering and
self sufficient Cabinet officers or imbecile
Generals, is to us incomprehensible. And
yet, to du so is in the estimation of the
Gazette simply treason. That is, it is trea
son for us and those who think with us to
criticise, but a more exacting criticism than
we are capable of making is entirely justi
fiable when made by Henry Ward Beecher
or Wendell Phillips.
JOHN X. BOTTS' SLAVES
We presume that the moat violent Abo
litionist in the country will scarcely deny
the attachment of John M. Botts for the
Union. He has given evidence of his
loyalty by suffering incarceration in a
rebel baetile, because of his Union senti
ments. After months' of imprisonment
he was at length released. A letter from
the army to the New York Times contains
the following paragraph :
"A few days ago a number of slaves belonging
to John Minor Botts came within our lines at
l;nion Mills. -Mr,liotte requestetthecommander
of the past to return them to him. as he was a
loyal man, The commander immediately tele
grapheu to Gen. Ifeintzelman to know what
course to pursue. Col. Lathrop, of tho General's
staff, repdad that they were free the moment
they entered our lines, and could not be remand
ed to s'avery."
Here is a man who has fought, the
usurpers from the commencement of their
treason ; be was so obnoxious to them that
they found it necessary, to imprsion him ;
and here, after hie release from punish
meet, because of his loyalty to the legiti
mate go-iernment he finds himself in the
same predicament--with the rankest
rebel. His
,slaves go' off and enter the
Union lines, and therb they are allowed
to remain ; at least they are not re,
turned to their owner. is this soil cf
conduct likely to strengthen Mr. Eotts'
rove for the Union? or is it not rather cal
culated to induce him, like so many oth
ers, to cast his fortunes with the rebel
South? If, while living in a rebellious
State, he can not receive protection from
our government, we can not complain if
terror upon' the one hand and injustice
ppon the other, should eventually drive
him into the support of the rebel cause.—
Already he has suffered more for his
Union principles than any other man in
Virginia; but if army officers keep on en
couraging his slaves to run away from him
he, like many cthers will begin to consid
er that his sacrifices havo been sufficient.
Oar government's policy wag, and is, to
return Botts' slaves and protect him
against rebel encroachments ; this would
strengthen him in his devotion to our cause
and induce others to rally around him in
defiance of the governments of both Davis
and Letcher.

Gov. Seymour's Letter to the Val
landigham Meeting in Albany,
ALBANY, (N. Y.,) May 17.—The follow
ing is the letter of Governor Seymour to
the Vallandigham meeting last n'ght:
EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, May IG.
I cannot attend the meeting at the Cap
ital this evening, but I wish to state my
opinion in regard to the arrest of Mr.
Vallandigham. It is an act which has
brought dishonor on our country. It is
full of danger to our persons and oar
homes; it bears cn its front a conscious
violation of law and justice. Acting upon
the evidence of detailed inferences ;
shrinking from the light of day in the
darkness of night, armed men violate the
home of an American citizen, and furtive.
ly bore him away to a military trial, con
ducted without the safeguards known in
the proceedings of our judicial tribunals.
The transaction involves a series of of
fenses against our most sacred rights.
It interfered with the freedom et speech.
It pronounced sentence without a trial,
save one which was a mockery, which
insulted as well as wronged the per
petrators, and now seeks to impose
punishment, not for an offense against
law, but for the disregard of an invalid
order put forth in the utter disregard of
the principles of civil liberty. if this pro
ceeding is approved by the Government
and sanctioned by the people, it is not
merely a step toward revolution : it is rev
olution. It wilt not only lead to military
despotism : it establishes military despot
ism. In this aspect it must be accepted,
or in this aspect rejected. If it is upheld,
our liberties are overthrown. The safety
of our persons and security of our property
will hereafter depend upon the arbitrary
will of such military rulers as may be
placed over us, while our constitutional
guarantees will be broken down. Even
DOW the Governors and Courts of some of
the great Western States have stink into
insignificance before the despotic powers
claimed and exercised by military men who
have been sent into their borders. 1t is a
fearful thing to increase the danger which
now overhangs us, by treating the law,
the julticiary, and the State authorities,
with contempt.
The l eople of this country now wait with
the deepest anxiety the decisions of the
Administration upon these acts. Having
given it a general support in the conduct
of the war, we pause to see what kind of
government it is for which we are asked to
pour out our blood and our treasure.—
The action of•the Administration will de
termine, in the minds of more than one.
hgteer tce ilia down the
rebellion at the South, or destroy tree in
stitutions at the North. We look for its
d• anon with moat solemn solicitude.
(Signed) HORATIO SEYNIUUER.
Letter from
the Hon. Roverdy
Johnson
The New York Journal of Commerce
contains a long letter:from the lion. Rev
erdy Johnson, of Maryland, in reply to a
letter of David Dudley Field, Eaq., of
New York, on the condition of the coup•
try. The latter gentleman in his letter, it
appears, alleged that Mr. Johnson and
others were satisfied with "the peace con
ference." Mr. J. proceeds to show that
Mr. Field is to'ally mistaken, and adds ;
"The guarantees recommended in Mr.
Unthrie's report were satisfactory, bat the
conduct of the convention. resulting in a
great measure from Mr. Field's course,
rendered the convention itself anything
but satisfactory. We saw in it, as the re
sult proved, certain defeat in Congress, of
the recommended guarantees, and saw,
with equal clearness, that the result of its
deliberations would not, for a moment,
suspend even the perilous excitement of
the Sonthern mind, or avert the calamity
tt involved-."
After expressing the opinion that there
are thousands in the South, who in their
hearts, still love the Unioti which their
fathers constructed, Mr. Johnson again
remarks :
"Satisfy them, that, the war ended, the
Union will be as it was intended to be, and
was before treason and fanaticism involved
us in the existing frightful struggle, and
much. very much, will be done to bring
the struggle to an end, and to restore our
former nationality. We shall then, too,
know each other better, and value each
other the more. Courage has been found
a common possession—mistakes •as to
character corrected—love of freedom is
seen to be equally sincere, and we shall be
more firmly convinced than we have ever
been that Union, under all the guarantees
of personal and State rights which our
fathers provided, can alone make us what
they intended, and believed they had ac
complished through their blood and wis
dom—the freest and the happiest, and
one of the most influential nations of the
world."
The Rebel Loss,
Some of the Southern papers are par
ading an estimate of their lose in the late
battles on the Rappahanitock,which makes
it 9,200 in killed wounded and missing.—
But the Richmond Examiner of last Sat
urday says that 12,000 wounded had been
brought to that city. Allowing for those
sent to other places,.and those not re
moveable, and allowing also for the dis
position to understate a loss, and we may
say that,:lhe whole number of wounded
was 15,000. The ordinary proportion
would make the killed about three thous
and. We know that Gen. Hooker cap
tured at least 3,000 prisoners. This would
make the whole rebel loss about 21,000,
and is is more likely to be above than be
low this figure. The loss in our army is
nearly as great as that of the rebels. It
is awful to think:that an indecisive battle
should cause such a terrible amount of
misery. Neither North nor South can
honestly exult much over this one, though
the rebels are m %king a tremendous boast
over their "great victory."—Phila. Eve.,
Bulletin.
THE husband of a pious woman having
occasion to make a voyage, his wife sent a
written request to the clergyman of the
parish, which, instead of spelling and
pointing properly, viz:. f‘L person having
gone to sea, his wife desires the prayers ot
the congregation," she spelled and point

LATEST FROM THE SOUTH
Arrival of Jaekson'a Remains
From Tue:any's Richmonl Whig.)
Yesterday was a sad day in Richmond.
Sunday afternoon the report of General
Jackson's death was current, but though
preceded by the announcement from sev
eral pulpits that the condition of the illus
trious chieftain was deemed critical, no
one was willing to credit the" tidings of
his death without full assurance of the
correctness of the unwelcome news. The
city papers yesterday morning contained
the sad, sad announcement, and all doubts
being thus removed gloom and sorrow
pervaded the community.
In accordanee with the recommenda
tion of the mayor, all business was sus
pended after 10 o'clock, A. M. Between
11 and 12 a large concourse of ladies and
gentlemen assembled on Broad street, to
witness the arrival of the special train ex
pected with the remains of the departed
hero.
The coffin was covered with wreaths,
placed upon it by, the ladies of Ashland.
With as little delay as possible the body
was removed, under military escort, to the
Governor's mansion, followed by perhaps
the largest assemblage of persons ever
collected within the Capital square.
The Death of Stonewall Jackson
The Richmond Whig of the 12th, in
refering to Jackson's death r says :
"Since the death of Washington no sim
ilar event has so profoundly and sorrow
fully impressed the people of Virginia as
the death of Jackson. For all this love
for him living, and all this grief for him
dead, there was reason enough. For in
the great struggle which now engages ail
hearts and bands, he was himself a power
equal to many regiments of armed men.
Be had thrown into it the energies of a
mighty spirit, the resources of a great in
tellect. What others did or attempted
from impulses of ambition, patriotism or
sense of duty, he did from compulsion of
conscience, and a reverential conviction of
obligation to his Maker. He did it with
all his strength of mind, soul and body.—
So actuated, he thought not of consequen
ces to himself, of dangers to be encount
ered or glory to be won; and so acting, he
left nothing undone that was possible of
accomplishment."
I be Spoils
From the Richmond Whig.
From every side we hear that the spoils
left by Gen. Hooker's army exceed those
on any previous battle field, not excepting
the engagements around Richmond. Not
only au immense number of small arms—
variously estimated at from 30,000 to 50,-
000—but an almost infinite quantity of
overcoats, knapsacks, coats and blankets.
An idea of the spoils maybe gathered from
the statement made to us by an artillery
officer in regard to the men of his battery.
He says the country is strewn with blank
ets, Six., that his men in marching from
one field, to another, since the late battles
have never cumbered themselves with any
thing, being satisfied that wherever they
may camp for the night a plenty of blank
ets and overcoats will be found. Shall
these things be gathered up or thrown
away ; left to rot, or to he collected by ne
groes and citizens, who, after all the trou
ble of getting them together, are to be in
sulted for so doing? We trust moat sin•
cerely that Quartermaster Myers will show
a proper efficiency in this important mat•
ter.
The Spirit of onr Men.
From the Richmod Whig.
It is said that some of the heroic men
of Jackson's corps, during the late forced
march to the rear of the enemy, rather
than straggle or be left behind, fell dead
in their trucks from sheer exhatitnB or - F
fined to Jackson's men, but inspired the
whole army, the following extract from a
letter, written by the commander of a
light battery from this city, will show.
The battles had not commenced when the
letter was written.
Camp Near Fredericl.sburg, April 3d,
1863.—0 n yesterday we received, very
suddenly, an order to the front, distant
twenty-five miles. Startling with all the
inevitable entanglements and delays about
111 a. m, we marched till 3 a. m., this
morning, and some till long after day.
My battery being in the rear of the column
came in last—about sunrise. Our pro•
visions followed us into camp about 12 m.
today. The march was through mud,
mud, mud, and cold Northeast rain ; no
sleep, no food. You should have seen the
boys of my battery, almost falling asleep
as they stumbled through the dark, cling
ing mist—yet plunging in at the word, in
knee deep, slush and mud to play at hor
see; and to push the guns up on the fagged
out brutes. Some oaths and some grum
bling but at the bottom a will to do it.
"These men, the privates, marched the
twenty-five miles, through rain, mud and
night, carrying on their backs all
their worldly goods, and about half the
time helping their horses along."
Snob are the men that compose Lee's
army and defend this city from the horri
ble outrages of the cowardly and brutal
toe. If they show such spirit in defending
us, what ought we to do for them when
hey are sick and wounded?
Prom the Army of the Potomac.
A corespondent of the New York Times
writes:
Gen. Lee has detained all the nurses
and surgeons who accompanied the am
bulance trains across the fords, and has
also placed guns in position at Banks' and
United States fords, from which fact it is
supposed that he intends to assume the
offensive, and cross the river for an at
tack upon our forces.
Gen. Lee's headquarters are in Freder
icktburg. Gen. Barksdale, isin command
there. The rebels are remarkably well
clothed this spring. An officer of Barks
dale's staff informed one of our surgeons
that a steamer loaded with clothing had
lately arrived at a Southern port, and
sixty thousand snits had been distributed
among the army in Virginia.
Stonewall Jackson's Dying Be-
quest.
We hear that the dying words of Stone.
wall Jackson was a request that General
Ewell might be assigned to the command
of his troops.
From Gen. Grant's Army.
A. dispatch was this forenoon received
here from General Grant, dated on the
Bth inst., -which shows that the Cairo dis
patch of the 18th, and the Jackson, Miss.,
(rebel) dispatch of the 6th were positively
untrue; the former having represented
that he had beaten Bowen's rebel army on
the 6th inst., and the latter that Bowen's
army had repulsed him on the 4th. In
this dispatch from Gen. Grant, (of the Bth
instant,) he expressed satisfaction with
the appearance of matters in his vicinity,
and states that Port Hudson is undoubt
edly evacuated, except by a small garri
son and their heavy artillery.

GREAT BRITAIN.—A deputation of Trades
. Unionists, headed by Mr. Bright, present

pressed great pleasure at the reception of
the address. He admitted the difficulties
of steering clear of a collison between the
two nations, but trusted that friendly re
lations would be maintained. He assert
ed that, notwithstanding the tone of some
of the American speakers and journals
there is no nation for which America en
tertains a greater regard than for England,
and if the real sentiments of each people
could be clearly established to each other,
he would have no fear of a collision.—
lle believed the Trades Unionists had ta
ken the right course to produce such an
understanding.
The Times looks on Mr. Adams' speech
as most reasonhble and timely, and looks
forward without mistrust for mutual for
bearance. England must expect some in
terruptions to trade, and America must
tolerate some short comings in consider

behooves England to look leniently at the

The Swedish cabinet trusts to the humane

CARD TO THE PUBLIC.
A FALSEHOOD EXPOSED.
ILIOR sour, TIME PAST AN ADTER
JV tisemont has appeared in the papers here,
stating thas Five Gold-Medals bad been awarded
the Rowe t owing Machine" at the late World's
Fair in London. 'ono for the beat on exhibition
for all purposes and the others far superior speci
mens of Sowing. " Though aware at the time that
the statement was wholly devoid of truth and a
liiiteliT*O l goUratel. an otncaa
copy of the Report of the Judges in the matter
so that we could give it a positive and authori
tive contradiction. 3 hat Report, published by
authority of the Commissioners of the Exhibi
tion, is now in our possession, and shows how ut
terly untrue are the statements in the advertise
ment alluded to,
At the World's Fair the WHEELER A:. Nir IL
SON Company had but a single Machine an ex
hibition, while of the Bowe Machine there were
several on hand. In the official copy of the award,
which may bo seen at our rooms, 2? Fifth street,
it i stated that a Gold Medal was awarded the
Howe Sowing Machine Company, not, however,
because their Sewing Machine was better, or as
good as others, for all purpo es. but because, in
the language of the award, they exhibited "the
best collection."
Tb "four medals" alleged to have been award
ed for superior specimens of sewing, were
never awarded at all, nor did the aforesaid
operior sowing" receive oven the bar ren corn
pgment of - an"honorable mention in the
Judge's Report. Compare this with the high
compliment bestowed on the Wit BELSItrk WIL
SON MACHINE. Though the Cempany, avoid
ing all
.pretentious display, had but a single
machine on exhibition, it was awarded
A Gold Medalon its Merits as
a Family Machine, and
On its Merits Alone,
These are the facts of the ra•o as exhibited by
the official report of the Commissioner, and in
justice to ourselves, as well as to expose a palpa
ble and flagrant attempt at impos,tion, we have
felt constrained to lay them before the puhlic.—
Werepext. therefore, that the WIIEELER &
WILSON MACHINE is the only ma.
chine watch re elves a Gold Medal
on Its Ilerita at the late World's Fair,
ani piononnee all statements to the, contrary. no
matter nom what source they emanate, as wholly
unworthy of belief.
