We direct the reader's particular atten tion to the cheering news we publish this morning from Gen. Grant's army. Since the beginning of the month that officer has been making rapid strides against the rebels; he has now Vicksburg within his power, and we hope he will be able, as the telegram intitnates, to capture the rebel army in that vicinity. The news is the most gratifying of the war, being the announcement of the beginning of the end ing of the rebellion in the South-west. VALLANDIGHAM VS. GREELEY. It should be remembered, remarks the World, that Vallandigham has on no cc cas'on advocated the right of secession.— He has repeatedly denied that atly such legal right existed. Now, if he is infa mous, who has always opposed disunion, and who differs from the rest of na only as to the methods by which the North and South can be brought together, what are we to say of leading members of the Re publican party who have openly advocated the right of secession ? Take, for inbtancp the following from the editorials of Mr. Horace Gr eley, of the New York Tri Lune; [From the Tribune, Feb. ^3d, 15 . 2 ' " Whene‘ er it shall be clear that the ure.d 's of the : 4 outharn people bare become adenated front the L'nion. and an ridn , r. eseape from it, we will do our best to the.. views " ON VALLA.NDIGH AM The VS , ashinVon co - re3pord3nt at the New York Independent, the great Aboli tion organ of the country, remark,: : It is yet doubtful what will be done with Mr. Vallandigham. It is reported here that Mr. Seward says it was a very g:-.?at mi3take for General Bu:nside t, arrest him—that he should have been brotigh• before 'lie cc urts and tr'ed for trea:or.— if tins is Mr. Seward's p.iAiiion, h:• rxh its ty. time ! - .R.3 71. I httl‘t ki IA a ore,,zry I ariesiing er acd tr\ inertial in roe : , :ates, the crn.:.iet of arms does nc•t rage. If General It iraside may with propriety ignore the oivd erotrts in Ohio, so may General Dix in New York, and the next step will he perhaps, the arrest of every editor in New York who offends General Helleck by crii'cism upon his coarse. For it must be remern bered that it is the general who arrests, who is sole judge of the necees ty, and if a half dozen othcers can be toned who be lieve that criticisms upon the genefal in chief tend to evil in the army, then your Washington correspondent and the editors of the Independent may soon he sentenced to the Dry 'Tortugas! There is no liber ties for the citizen if the new military dor trine prevails. The better course is to , stick to law and order, and in the peaceful States to prosecute men in the civil courts for treasonable acts. The experir n2B of 1862 certainly shows this. The President hesitates, and wisely. He doubtless dis likes to seem to shrink from a collision with the Copperheads. If VallPmdigliam goes free again, all will agree that it we; a blunder that the arrest was made , but the President cannot evade the blunder, and he is forced to decide the case upon its merits. That crazy Aboliti,m sheet, the Ant; Slavery Standard also observes "I think there can be no doubt that General Burnside committed a blunder in paying any attention to his ( Vallanding ham's) stump speeches. lie should:have been indicted and tried in the courts - - That is the better way in a free State. Fur one I am not going to desert the cause of free speech and good government. Let men like Vallandigharn be punished in and by the courts. It anybody gets down where there are no courts. on the border, where the war rages, let the military power govern him, but it is not quite time yet to let Gen. Burnside direct the I.PCV- papers and the politicians of Ohio. It he may do so, the next step will be for 0-n. Wool to suppress the newspapers of New York. /t is not many weeks since I heard • - • a prominent official say that he would like to see the government suppress every jour nal in New York till the war is over There have been times when Mr. Stanton came very near to holding this opinion. Now it is well known that Gen. Halleck owes no love to the daily newspapers of the city of New York. Some of thorn have been taking liberties with him of late. What if he were to turn sharply mend and suppress them all? Those who justify the military arrest of Vallandighatn for making excited stump speeches could not deny to General lialleck the right to sup press every newspaper in the country, through his subordinates. General Burn side is the sole judge (according to this military theory,) aud, of course, General Wool would be the only judge in New York. Let us not admit too much against our own liberties in this terrible attempt to suppress the pro slavery resolution.— Sketch of the Pearl River The Pearl river, which runs through nearly one half of the State of Mississip pi, rises in Winston county, in the north east central part of the state, and ti Jag in a southwesterly direction to the city of Jackson. Here it makes a slight devia tion from its :nurse, and filwe southeast, until it strikes the boundary line which divides the states of Mississippi and Lou isiana. From this point it pursues e di rect southerly course until it reaches Lake Borghe, through which it kows into the Mississippi Sound and the Gulf of Mexi co. By this means a communication is opened with the sea near one of the Erni ted States naval and military depota—Ship Island. The whole length of the river exceeds two hundred and fifty miles. The navigation of the stream is somewhat im neded by sand bars and driftwood ; but flatboats and other light draught vessels often ascend the river as high as Jackson.

Istills., and Jackson is a City of Mississippi, of which State it is the capital. It is situated in Binds county, and has heretofore ben a very thriving place. It is located on the right or western bank of the Pearl river, at the terminus of the Vicksburg and Jack: son Railroad: In the city are stations of the Southern Mississippi, New o,lesns and Jackson, the great Northern, and the Vicksburg and Jackson railroads, and it is thereby a great centre of business. The site of tiselOwn is level and the plan reg ular, It contained, previous to the rebel lion, a number of churches, several nesse paper offices, the State and county build ings, executive mansion, the State lunatic asylum, an institution for the deaf aid dumb, another for the blind, the peniteo tiary or State prison, a United States land office and several other prominent bunt ings. The State prison is a large and handsome edifice, and the State House, ( which is reported as having been burned by the United States forces under General Grant) was an elegant building, and eoit fir its erection the sum of six hundred '' thousand dollars. The Pearl river Ss nav igable for cotton and small boats from - Jackson to the Mississippi hound, leading into the Gulf of Mexico, and in "olden times" from thirty to forty thousand bales of cotton were annually shipped from the Mississippi capital. To show the progress made in the prospective rise and progress of Jackson, it is but necessary to glance at the census returns. In 1850 the popu lation numbered 1,881 ; in 1855 it had in creased to about 3 000 ; and in 1859 the returns showed a 'further increase,. num bering then :3,1500. It is distant by rail from Vicksburg forty-four and a half , miles ; from Meridian, ninety-five and al half miles; from New Orleans one hundred and eighty-three miles; from Grand Junc tion two hundred and thirteen miles; from Corinth, via Grand Junction, two hundred and fifty four miles; from Corinth via Me ridian, two hundred and eighty-nine and a half miles; from Memphis via Grand Junction, two hundred andsixty-five miles; from Ms, via Grand Junction, two hun dred and seventy six miles, and via Merid ian, three hundred and eleven. and a half moles ; from Chattanooga, v:a Grind Junction, four hundred and seventy miles: and via Meridian five hundred and five and a half miles; from Mobile via Meridian, two hundred and twenty nine and a half mire ; from Port Gibson, by the turnp.ke road, about sixty miles ; from Ilaymorid, about n'teen and from Auburn, a'.out thirty miles. As each station be t weer.

I only suc ceeded, however, in effectually destroying the three heavy casements commending the channel and . n small water battery for two guns about six hundred yards below iE. I also destroyed by bursting one hehvy thirty-two pounder and some gun carriages left in their harry by the elemy. The main fort is on a hill, some nine hun dred yards from the water. / was unable to attend' to it. It is quite an extensive work, quite new and incomplete, built with much labor and pains. It will take two or three vessels to pull it to pieces. I had not the powder to spare to blow it up.

Second—That in accordance with the suggesti3na of the Moderator of the last Assembly at Columbus, that this inter change of commissioners should com mence at the earliest practical period, Robert W.
