LLEGHENT, July 29th, 186 1 . aul
A BI& BUSINESS ON SMALL
CAPITAL.
A very brave and heroic officer, Col.
Melanctou Smith, of Rockford, 111., who
had been Postmaster of the place, Wed
killed at Vicksburg, daring the late pro.
tracted siege of that stronghold. The af
fairs of his little Post office were, daring
the absence of the husband in the army,
satisfactorily attended to by his wife.
Upon the news of the soldier's death, the
neighbors of his widow joined in a petition
to have her continued as P. M., which
wet accordingly done. The Waahingtcn
Chronicle, from which we learn these facts,
goes into a rhapsody of delight and enthu•
Biala' over what it terms the " Adminis
tration's tender and watchful solicitude"
for those made dependent by the war.
We should like. to be informed by the
court organ at Washington in what the
"tender solicitude" alluded to consists.
The lady in question performed the duties
of her little office to the satisfaction of her
neighbors; those neighbors upon the death
in the field of carnage, of her sole support,
petitioned the Administration for her ap
pointment ; and what in the name of de-
oency could the Post office department do
bat appoiiit her'' Was there any possi
bility of her papers being rfjected ? cr
was her petition subjected to a Cabinet
diecut sain, that there is eo much credit
claimed for the Administration, because
of its beggarly recognition of what it could
not escape or neglect, without incurring
a load of infamy which it could not bear?
But the Administration having complied
with the unanimous desire of the neigh
bors of the widowed lady in question, the
organ at Washington turns it to the best
account. It is evidenuy impressed with
the idea that she is amply compensated
for the loss of her husband. and that to
be the superintendent of mail bags, will
more than compensate for her anxiety
about her orphans. The recollection of
her husband will Boon be forgotten in her
solicitude about the regular arrival of the
mails.
We rejoice that the Administration has
done even this little act of justice and pro
priety; but it was the consequence of the
people's petition, and not because of any
settled rule of the Administration. In
this county and neighborhood we have the
streets lined with disabled soldiers, whose
sallow cheeks, sunken eyes and faded
forms, plainly indicate penury and care.—
Why are not these survivers of a glorious
cause, cared for? The cffices of tax
assessors and collectors are peddled oat
to maintain Abolition politicians, and
partisan lazzironi, while the crippled sur•
vivors of many a well fought field, are
allowed to retire sapperlesa to bed.
THE DODGE OF A PETTIFOG
faElt.
The worn out and briefiess attorney, who
has, for some time, been using the editori•
al columns of the Gazette, as a sewer to
carry off his bile, has attracted the atten
tion of some of the less fanatical of his
party, and they are attending to his ego
tism and insolence in splendid style. In
sensible as he is to public ridicule and
shame, he winces under the chastisement
he so richly deserves; but in order to break
the force of the castigation, he says that
the Pittsburgh Post thinks as they do in
relation to Gov. Curtin being the strong
est candidate the Abolitionists can nom
inate for Governor. This is the mere
dodge of a pettifogger, who unable to an
swer an argument, attempts to weaken it,
by clarsing its authors with the common
opponent. of them both.
The Pittsburgh Post has made no allu
sion to Gov. Curtin's strength among the
people, because it does'nt concern ns. It
is no matter whom the Abolitionists may
nominate in their approaching State Con
vention, for he is bound to meet with an
overwhelming defeat in October. Fixed
in this conviction, we have given little
thought to the probable nominee of
the coming Convention, but we have
said a few words in relation to the
fact of the Gazette having abandoned
its columns to the use of a common
scold—a conceited blatherskite, who upon'
one pretext or another has kept this com
munity in a turmoil for the past six years
The street preachers, who used to dese
crate the Sabbath, and spout plasphemy
and obscenity upon the street corners in
the hearing of church going citizens, dif
fered from the unfortunate person in ques
tion only in the style of their rhetoric. He
is just ss extravagant, impracticable, nn
just-and provoking ag they were. His in
solence, in arrogating to himself superior
patriotism, and his Persistent calutatlies of
men his peers, if not superiors in every
quality constituting manbcod, because
they will not be indoctrinated with his
crotchets, has grown intolerable; and his
infamous calumnies of his betters ought .
to admonish him that "it is a long lane
that has no turns."
liiwpatriotisma mambas simply in bra=
zen pretension, a mere mock patriot, of
frothy verbosity, " full of sound and fury,
signifying nothing '"'"He" both a Cant
well and a Miran. What he has done to
sustain the government in its preeent
trials, except to talk about slaveiy, no one
knows. He is, we believe, represented in
the - army by, one occupying a 'snug posi
tion which; yields goOd pay and rations ;

blustering condemnation of others'
as a proclamation of his own. We would
have such a fellow whipped for being a
counterfeit, and that too by the old moth
ere of the men - whom he basso meanly and
contemptibly slandered.
Progress of Submission.
The most significant indication of the
approach of the end of the. revolt is the
increasing number of rebel prisoners ta
ken who refuse to be paroled because
they do not wish to fight against the Union
any longer. This is the case in all our
military departments, and hundreds of
Southern men are constantly coming for.
ward to give in their submission and take
the natioanl oath of allegiance. NO less
than one thousand such have jast arrived
at Memphis from Vicksburg, whose pa
role being offered to them by Grant, atter
the surrender of the rebel stronghold,
they declined accepting it, and preferred
going north and taking the oath of alle
giance. These men ware . part of the ar•
my which defended Vicksburg so obsti
nately.
Large numbers of others, belonging -to
the same army, accepted their parole, but
embraced the first chance to desert and go
home, determined to fight no more. So
numerous did these cases become, that the
rebel cificers complained of our troops
for allowing them to desert. But Grant
did not consider himself bound to keep
these men in the rebel ranks if they desi.
red to leave and become peaceable chi
una, and indeed it would have been a
monstrous stretch of military law to use
the authOrity of the nation to keep men
in a rebel array arrayed for its own des
.truoticui.
The case was the same with regard to
the blacks in Vicksbnrg. The rebel of
ficers and soldiers claimed them as slaves,
and demanded that this "property" should
be secured to them under the terms of the
capitulation. As it was no part cf the
business of our army to turn slave catch•
ere, and especially it seemed outrageous
that slaves of rebels should be forced to
serve their masters in the rebel armies by
means of our authority after the masters
had lost their own, this demand, was not
yielded to. The black: men were allowed
liberty, and a chaisee to enlist in the na
tional army, and hundreds of them em
braced the opportunity.
As the — rebel litrthoritiert at Richmond
have just ordered a levy en masse, we
may expect to See multitudes, of Souther
ners embrace the earliest opening to : , ,ome
into our lines and take the oath of elle
glance in order to escape the doom of
fighting in a ruined cause. It is good pol
icy to encourage this movement, as its
tendency to weaken the rebellion and re
duce the new levy of the rebels is unde
niable. This is real unconditional tinier) -
ism, and of a kind likely to last.— L - . .S
Gazette.
Question of :Rank
A very grave question for the military
courts has been developed by the Morgan
raid. It is a question of relative rank,
and as the contending parties are gentle•
men of eminent legal ability, one being at
the present time a United States Judge,
and the other having been a Judge of one
of our District Courts, the matter will be
closely investigated. It appears that Brig.
Gen. James Hughes, of the Indiana Mil
itia, occupied New Albany with a brigade
of State troops, considering himself, as a
matter of course, being a General, mon
arch of all he surveyed from the channel
of the Ohio to the semicircle of hills that
sweep around the pretty city in which his
headquarters were situated. It is a very
pleasant thing to be .a sovereign even of a
small territory, and so thought General
Hughes. Gen. Boyle, however, took it
into his head to appoint another com
mander, and sent over Col. Coburn, of the
United States Volunteers, to take the
reins oat of the hands of the militia Gen
eral. Gen. Hughes thought a General
should outrank a Colonel, or there was no
use in being a General, and refused to
give tip the lines, and ordered Col Coburn
under arrest. Col. Coburn thought a Col
onel in the United States service was a
bigger man than a militia General, and
refused to recognize the arrest. Thus the
conflict of authority arose, and there was
a high old time for a period. The with
drawal of.the State troops lulled the
storm, but has not decided the question.
It may break out at another time under
a similar state of affairs.—lndianapolis

Spanish Recognition.
WASHINGTON, July 27, 1863.
The queen of Spain will not recognize
the oouthern Confederacy unless France
and England act.
In France it is fully understood that the
nomination of Maximilian as Emperor of
Mexico, is merely preliminary to the rec•
ognition of the South by France. Napo
leon will not allow the reunion of the
States These matters are not what they
seem on the surface, according to French
ideas here. It is thought that if Maxi•
milian declines, and as he knows nothing
of the Spanish language he may do so,
Napoleon will find some one else ; even
F'orey may be made a ruler for the nonce.
Come who will, an empire or a monachy
in Mexico is deemed a bastion for the
Southern Confederacy.
The Widow of a soldier made a
Postmistress —Letter : from the
President. .
At the commencement. of the War for
the Union, Malangthon Smith was Post
master of the town of Rockford, 111., and
his wife was acting as Deputy P. M. Feel
ing it his duty to participate in the strug
gle, Mr. Smith raised a regimmt of which
he was appointed Colonel; and entered
the service under Gen. Grant, leaving
Mrs. Smith to attend to the duties of the
Post Office. Colonel Smith distinguished
himself on several occasions, and at the
recent storming of the first redoubt at
Vickabarg, led the forlorn hope, and was
shot through the head and killed. Appli
cation was then made for the appointment,
as Postmaster, of a gentleman, who, under
ordinary Circumstances would have been
a proper person to fill the office. Counter
applications to retain the widow were also
sent br. The matter being brought before
the President he indorsed the application
for the widow, and afterwards sent a let

THE MEXICAN QUESTION
Important Statement Or the Views of
the AmeriennitiOVerninent.
The following ciretilar letter,' addressed
by tl:e Secretary of State to the.several,
A m rican legations , etbroad, acquires new
iutereat from events now transpiring in
Mexico :
WAcHINGTON, March 3, 1862.
Sir.: We observaindicatintis of a grow
ing impression in Europethat the demon
stration made-by the Spanish, French and
British forces ; against Mexico, is likely
to provoke , a- revolution in that country,
i which shall bring about the introduction
of a monarchical governmeni, and the as
sum,,tion of thecrown by a foreign Prince.
Our country ii deeply interested in the
peace of the world, and desires to preserve'
Loyal relations as .well with the allies as
well as with Mexico.. The President has,
therefore, directed Me to submit to the
parties interested his views on the new as
pect of affairs.
The President has relied upon the assu
rance given his Government by the allies
that they were in pursuit of no political
object, but simply the redress of their
grievances. He entertains no doubt of
the sincerity of the allies; and if his con
tidence in their good faith had been dis
turbed, it would be restored by the frank
explanation given by them that the Gov
ernments of • Spain, France and Great
Britain. have no intention of in:erfering to
procure a change in the constitutional
Corm of government now existing in Mex•
ico, or any politcal change which should
be in opposition to the will of the Mexi
can people. In short, he has come to be
lieve that the allies are unanimous in de
claring that the revolution proposed to
Mexico is solely prompted by certain
Mexicali citizens who are now in Europe.
Nevertheless, the President regards it
as his d. , ty to express to the allies, in all
kindness and candor,
that a monarchial
government established in Mexico, in the
presence of foreign fleets and armies, oc
cupying the waters and the soil of Mexico,
has no promise of security or permanence ;
in the second place, that the instability of
such a monarchy would be enhanced if
tue throne were assigned to a person i
alien to Mexico ; that in these circum
stances the new government would instant
ly fail unless sustained by European alli
ances, which, under the influence of the
first invasion, would be practically the be
ginning of a permanent policy of armed
intervention by monarchical Europe, at
once injurious and inimical to the system
of government generally adopted by the
American continent.
These views are based upon immeknowl
edge of the opinions and political habits of
American society. There can be no doubt
that in this matter the permanent interests
and the sympathies of our country would
be on the side of the other American Re•
publics.
We must not be understood as predict
ing oa this occasion the course of events
which may ensue, hoth in Americo and
Europe, from the steps which are contem
plated. It is enough to say that, in the
opinion of the President, the ernancipa
lion of the American continent from the
control of Europe has been the principal
charucterislir of the past half century. li
is not probable that a revolution in the
opposite direction can succeed in the age
winch immediately follows this period,
and while the population of America in
creases so rapidly, while its resources de
velop in the same proportion, and while
society forms itself unitormly according to
the principles of the American Democrat
ic Government.
t is unnecessary to indicate to the allies
hew improbable it is that the nations of
Europe would accept cheerfully a policy
favorable to a similar counter revolutica,
thus incompatible with their own proper
interests. Nor is it necessary to point
out, that notwithstanding the care of the
allies to avoid aiding, by means of their
land and maritime forces, the internal
revolutions of Mexico, the result would be
none the less due to the presence of their
forces in the country, however different the
object they may have proposed; for without
their presence it may be considered as cer
tain that such resolutions would probably
not have been attempted or even con
ceived.
The Senate of the United States has
certainly not accorded its official sanction
to the precise measures proposed by the
President, to lend our aid to the
actual Mexican Government, in or
der that the latter might, with the
approbation of the allies, extricate
itself trout its present embarrassments,bnt
this is strictly a question of internal ad
ministration. There could be no greater
error than to see in this disagreement a
divergence of opinion in our Government
or in the American people, in regard to
their cordial wishes for the safety, welfare
and stability of the Republican Govern
ment in that country.
I am your obedient servant,
Wet. H. Sirwean.
The Southern Conscription
WASHINGTON, July 28,
Copies of Southern journals of the 23d
are at hand, and Richmond papers of yes
terday. They contain very gloomy edito
rials, most of them on the Southern con
scription act. The Columbus (Georgia)
Times has a long article, showing that but
90,000 men remain in the states in full
rebel possession who can be called upon
under the wholesale conscription just or
dered by Jeff. Davis. It presents detailed
statistics to show this. The North Caro
lina papers complain bitterly of thevgnota
placed upon that state being larger than
that of any other state. The Raleigh
Progress is complained of by the Peters
burg _Express for following in the footsteps
of the Raleigh Standard, a journal very
hostile to the Richmond government. The

NEW YORE, July 30. —The Herald has
the following from Nashville, July 23 :
We are permitted to send you the fol
lowing facts, collected here from a desert
er just in from Bragg's army: In the - fight
on Morris Island the rebels sustained a
very heavy loss of killed and wounded.
At first it was reported 500, and then re
duced to 350. Among the killed is Brig.
Gen. George Smoot, Colonel Langdon
Cheeves, Col. John Bees, and Maj. Tote.
The body of Col. John Bees is in Union
hands. The other three had been brought
into Charleston.
Great consternation prevails in the city;
the women and children are all leaving;
all of the free negroes being pressed into
the service, and the only hope of Charles
ton, says its friends, is by the bayonet.
NOY YORK, July 3 0.—Yesterday morn
ing, Pegram's and Scott's forces, num•
bering about twenty-five hundred, left
Richmond, and crossed the Kentucky
river, and marched to Paris, where they
arrived yesterday afternoon, and attack
ed our forces.
.After two hours of a
sharp engagemen, the rebels were re
pulsed and driven away. It is thought
they will make a flank movement on mat
place. A large 'Union cavalry force is .
in the rear of the rebels.
It is believed that the movement against
Paris was for the purpose of destroying
a bridge there.
Squads of Morgan's men are being
brought into Columbus by citizens anal
the military. There are now thirteen
hundred at Camp Chase. Morgan vial
be moved to Columbus this morning s and
confined in the Penitentiary.
Nicw YORK, July 30.—1 n the case of J.
C. Liste, who was tried and sentenced to
death at Cincinnati as a spy, an order
from the War Department revokes the
sentence, on the ground that evidence has
been produced that he was a member of
Clarke's rebel regiment, and he will be
held as a prisoner of war.
