The Union as it Was,
't he Constitution as It Is
GIEN. ROSSCR.&NS.
There are two distinguialnog peculiari
ties•of the present Administration, as re
gards its conduct of the war—we allude to
the rapidity of its military promotions, and
to its equally sudden decapitations, with
out explanation, of officers, in whom the
Administration taught us to / implicitly re
ly. Gen. RosEcrwis, up to Wednesday
last, was according to the highest authori
ty we have, the very embodiment of a suc
cessful General. For some sudden cause
he is unceremoniously discarded, and or*
dered to report hie arrival at Cincinnati.
One report, in this connection, informs
us that Gene. McCoom and CErrrENnEN
were discarded because of charges prefer
red against them by Gen. BOHEMIANS ;
and now another rumor announces that
&now:a is relieved because of charges
preferred by the two officers in question.
This, in the language of Sir Lucius (Y
-TRIGGER is a very pretty quarrel as it
stands. Another account say that Ross—
GRANS, CRITTENDEN and licCocx " were
all three asleep in Chattanooga, while
Gen. Tnomes was fighting a desperate bat
tie against BRAGG. One Washington cor
respondent steps in and informs the Tri
bune that—
- It is now understood that Gen. ROSEOBANS
came very near losing his command daring the
stoic of Vicksturg, in consequencs of his refusal
to assist Gen. GRANT, aftrr repeated orders by
the Government and trent Gen. GRAN r himself,
by a•. tact ing BRAGG. so as to maks a diversion in
Gs.or 'a favor, and prevent the reinforeement of
JOHNSTON. Th 3 Government is Satisfied that ho
was too cautious before crossing the Tennessee.
and too rash afterwards• in the first oa - e hesi
tating to obey orders to move, and in the second
disregarding orders not to move too rapidly;
that, is a word, the Chattanooga campaign wet
really a failure."
It will be seen from this, that all the
laurels acquired by the General, are thus
turned into weeds, and that his campaign,
which the Department pronounced giori•
cue, turns out to be a lamentable failure.
Another army correspondent of the Cin
cinnati Gazette, blames ROSECILASS ' fail
ure upon the Administration. It is high
Abolition authority, and here are its
charg9a :
"There is a rumor of Guarrm g,ing up the river
to Mempliis—as it is only rumor. I place but
little reliance in it. For all practical purperes
___):ght as well be in Cincinnati or St Louis
wo
months, and mightiest as we i ace •
interior of Alabama whoa the battles near Chat
tanooga we-e f ught. and thereby secured vic
tory. But we could not move without o:dors
from the War Department. and here we are,
helplees and use:ass."
Taking all these charges, statements and
rumors together, and it will be rather dif•
fault to ascertain who is the most to blame.
One thing we do know, however, the Ad•
ministration has ''everything in its own
bnads, and can, by its power, in ten min•
rates either blast or brighten the reputation
of any of its officers. When claiming
redit for themselves, STA.:crow and Het
i ECK are patronizing enough ; but when
their blunders occasion serious disasters, a
victim is, of coarse, necessary to beer the
odium properly belonging to themselves.
The organs of the Administration too,
from the Washington Chronicle down tp
that stupendous humbug, the Pittsburgh
Commercial Printing Co., are all at work
to kill off poor ROSECRANS, The latest
excuse they offer for his sudden decapita
tion is, that "he is bordering on insani—
ty," and is, consequently, unfit for-his late
position. If this be true, we may expect,
in one of his lucid moments, soon to hear
of the General appealing to the President
in the language of MACBETH, his Excellen
cy's favorite dramatic creation,
" Cans: thou not minister to a mind diseased
Pluck ftum the memory s rotted sorrow
Raze out the written troubles of the brain:
And, with some Sweet oblirk II! antidote.
Cleans the fml bosom of that periloue Eta
Which weighs upon the hca t."
If Gen. BORECRA.NS ha destined to be
made a victim, aa BURNSIDE was at Fred
ericksbnry„) to hide the blundere of the
Administration, we may expect old Ass
in reply to the above - plaintive appeal, to
shoat—
Throw ph-:;ic to the dov, and
Lct the y.ttent. administer to Itimmil"."
FIRST IN THE. FIELD
When Pennsylvania was invaded by
LEE'S rebel cavalry, and when our Govern•
or raa away to, Washington to obtain per
mission to call out the militia of the State
(which r ,, quest was not granted) the Dem'
ocratic Governor of New York came to
our rescue. Now that the President has
again called for three hundred thousau
volunteers, Gov. Sentouu is the first to
respond. We published his proclamation
in yesterday's Post, and we shouldn't be
at all surprised if New York should have
her quota raised before our Abolition Go
vernors have issued their calls. Such
promptitude upon the part of Gov. Sir-
MOVE, is the best answer to his Abolition
slanderers.
In a speech the other day in the State of
Maine, that coarse villifier, Senator W.
soar, of Massachusetts, alluded to Gov.

acknowledged SEvuou a's services, which

a THE COMMERCIAL PRINTING CO.
This confidence concern is rather res
tive under the few good-natured thrusts we
have given it. In yesterday's issue it con
trasts us with the Memphis Appeal, much
to our disparagement by remarking—
" That the Appeal is conducted with ability
and courtesy, and that the Poet Is conducted
with a spiteful malignity whose satire is ili-na
tura, and whose wit is personal abuse, can make
no eifferonos in their (ILIA."
The severity of this savage paragraph
consists in the charge that oar "satire is
ill-nature" and our '•wit personal abuse ;"
ill nature being satire, and wit personal
abase, are good. Yet, notwithstanding
all this, going to prove us of little conse•
(pence, the Commercial Printing Co.,
lustily calls upon the proper authorities to
put us down, because our "wire and wit"
are helping immensely the cause of treason.
Listen to its indignant conclusion :
"We believe the max in "Evull to is comps."
and if our jut mmplaint is uesreganied, we ;rust
the i reprietors of the Appeal may be permitted
'o send an agent, who with pitiful, abject whites
about political proscription—whith ii truth is
imply self-dc ease in such cases — may also suc
ceed in impcsig upon our tit 7.-ns and levying
upon the charitable liberality of our bu.icess
men contribut,ons brmpport treason."
The point of this paragraph is, like the
sting of a certain little creature, in its, tail;
we allude, of course, to the Appeal's
"levying upon the charitable liberality of
our community." With all deference to
the Commercial's suggestion we think there
is no room for any more mendicant news
papers in this locality. Its "levying upon
the charitable liberality of our business
men contributions to support" stupidity
—which is the next mist intolerable thing
to treason in a I,e,v,:paper,—liave quite
exhausted their patience. The Appeal,
Ihereforu, need not come here ; the ground
_ 51
thing started upon charity, and which is
now dragging out a lingering existence
upon alms. And properly too. The cold
victuals its hangers•on succeeded in gath
ering in order to start it, were given under
false representations, and no more slices
eau be obtained from the same sources.
But to show the Commercial Printing
Co. how superior we arc to petty malice,
we trust that the gentlemen whose boun
ty has thus far kept it from starving, will
be charitaßle enough not to let it die
until after our coming Mayor's election.
In the meantime the Post will go on as
usual in its dull and simple way, occasion

COAL READY
There. are about five millions of bushels
of coal in bottoms ready to take advantage
of the first rise in the river, which bids
fair to be within a day or two. It is
scarcely probable the whole amount will
be able to getjthrough the locks at present,
bat a large quantity will be sent forward,
which will be good news for our friends
below.
The Removal of Roseorans
We are in receipt of astounding intelli
gence in regard to the removal of General
Rosecrans. The whole country will be
stirred at what we shall chronicle :
It is rumored that three charges are
made against this late popular comman
der :
The first charge is preferred by Gener
ale Crittenden and McCook, to the effect
that Roseorans left the battle-field daring
the crisis, and fled to Chattanooga, and
reported to officers there that the day
.was lost.
IL is reported that subsequently,
through opium, he became insensible.
The second charge, it is rumored, is
made by the Government, to the effect
that his orders were to remain at Chatta
nooga until reinforcements should arrive.
The third charge, as rumored, is to the
effect that he declined to move from Mur
freesboro in June last, when ordered to
do so by the Government, as an opportu•
city was offered to crush Bragg, a large
portion of his army having been withdrawn
to succor Jehesotzi, who was operating
against Grant.
If these charges are true,
it is most un
fortunate, as the name of Rosecrans w,s
a talisman of immense weight, —Wash
ingion City Chronicle.
From Gen oral Meade's Army
Thus far the rebels have made no stand
of consequence, and in all probability will
not. The retrograde movement of Gen—
eral Lee has been attributed to several
causes ; but we are inclined to believe
that the chief reason of his precipitate
flight is his concern of the result. We
shall have an opportunity of testiug the
mettle ci his army, as imperative orders,
we are informed, have been issued that
General Meade shall pursue the rebel
army vigorously, and, if possible, force
Lee to give battle. Our cavalry Sod no
enemy in possession of the important gaps,
rind it is our impression that Lee is may
lag haste to his intreachukuuts.-- Wesh•

Exchanges.
It seems absolutely incredible that in
wo Christian commmiiies at war each a
simple thing an the exchange of prison
ere should be apparently a matter of so
much difficulty. le the fault with our au
thorities or with those of the Confederate
States '; Justice to men who fight our
battles requires that they should not be
subject more than can be avoided to
the punishment of imprisonment. la the
early stages of the contest, when inter
course under flags of truce took place, if
we recollect rightly the officers invariably
reported the courtesy with which they
were treated, and the humane desire ex
pres: ,, d ou the other Hide to mitigate the
horrors of war.
f we ever expect a restored Uniou, it
is clearly our interest that it shall be rich
and prosperous ; and we never have been
able to comprehend the wisdom of that
vandalism which destroys private proper
ty. If a men and his wife will quarrel it
seems rather foolish to break all the crock•
ery, seeing that when the strife is com•
posed the household is poorer to just that
extent.
We have a number of prisoners whom
it costs us a good deal of money to sup
port ; the rebel authorities have Equally a
number of prisoners whom it costs them
much to support. As the Confederates
are poor and we are not, their prisoners
fare worse than our prisoners, and the
fee. ing of mutual hate is intensified on both
sides by prolonged captivity. We suppose
that the Confederates do the best they can;
but as they are content under privation,
and could almost be fed from the leav
ings of our armies, it is natural that they
should feel that they have done the beat
they can, and it is equally natural that
we should feel that their beet is not
enough.
It is true, and probably inevitable, that
there such an opposition of feeling as to
render mutual dealings between civilians
difficult. Probably the best way for our
authorities would be td put the exchange
question into the hands of an officer of
the regular army—one who will look at
the business simply in its military aspect,
and who can treat, as professional men
always treat, in n business point of view.
At one time General Lee, whose moder
ation and fairness we never heard denied,
was the channel of communication he
tween Richmond and Washington. Un•
fortunately, General Halleck, in a fit of
dignity, chose to return a letter from
him about the Mun.ford execution, as im
proper, and all communication from him
;s necessarily shut off. This was ver , ,
much to he regretted, as there is no mai,
in the wurld who would deal with '4l clues
tion more fairly than Lee ; and we pie
co me that Lee would make the same tt,l
mission in relation to Generals Mead, ,
McClellan, rind a host of federal uffieerr.
There is a class of men, however, who
feel, partly from nature, partly from a be
lief in their personal interest, that it is
essential to impress upon the Cunfedei -
ates their conviction that they regarded
them as rascally traitors. To rentildy
these men to fight Confederates is wise ;
to employ them to negotiate with rebels
is very unwise. We fear that our present
commissioner, General Meredith, though
a gentleman, a man of ability, and prob
ably as excellent an officer as he is a brave
soldier, has a good deal of this feeling,
which is not objectionable, but has show .2
it, which ia.
If the military authorities will select
some such man as Colonel Clitz, state Ito
claims and its position in the few words
that are necessary for his instruction, and
let him receive the counter claims of the
rebel authorities, his mission would he
ftatillul, If an agreement can be made,
well ; not, ISt CI,. I.nly,
lished, and the sense of humanity North
and South be invoked to compel justice to
the prisoners through public opinion.
Considering that the hypothetical
wrongs of the negro have set two sections
to warring upon each other, it seems to us
that the real sufferings of our brave eol.
diers deserve some little attention. When
the vote of the soldier is needed, some
people are very anxious that his politichl
rights should be secured. We never
heard of any such proposition while our
army was in Mexico, or on the frontier in
1812. Let those who are so anxious for
the soldier's political rights exhibit some
care for his personal welfare, and use
their legitimate influence to do away with
the miserable imbroglio which weighs
heavily upon the well being of our men.

Russian Outrages in Poland
Late English papers teem with accounts
of Russian barbarities in Poland, but how
true they are it is impossible to say. We
snb•j;in a few of the morn recent state
ments, as follows
"In the little town of Dzaloszyre ter•
rible scene best been recently witnessed
A body of Russian troops with two offi
cers ento-ed the shop of a Jewish tailor
named Icek Sarna, and, finding some
shirts and blouses which they thought
were Polish uniforms, began to beat the
proprietor, asking him who had ordered
the uniforms to be made. Ou Sarna de
daring he did not know, the officers or
dered him to be tortured. The soldiers
then lit twenty tallow candles, and with
them burnt his beard, whiskers, eyebrows
and eyelashes in such a barbarous man
net, that his face was one wound. They
then burnt him all over the body, espy
niftily the soles of his feet. He fainted
several times from the pain, but was re
vived by restoratives, after which the tor
tore was resumed. This continued from
one to ten e. M. At length the unhappy
man who had confessed the truth in say
fog he did not know the name of the par
ties who had ordered him to make the
blouses, mentioned the first name that had
occurred to him, that of Zdziarski, tlie to
cal trmisurer, who was immediately arres
ted. Next day the troops plundered all
the shops in the town belonging to Jews,
and would have sacked the whole town
had not the inhabitants, by a bribe of
three hundred silver roubles. induced
their commandant to restrain them. An.
other fiendish outrage was perpetrated at
Warsaw in connection with the sacking of
Count Ramcvski's residence. Afier nll
the inmates were lodged ir prison, tho
women were placedunder the gursid of th, ,
soldiers in the empty rooms. ['he barbs

boos died in convulsions."
The Causes of His Removal
A despatch in the Now York Tribune,
alluding to General . Rosecrans' removal
from the command of the army in Tennes
see, says it is well known that he McCook
and Crittenden, were asleep in Chatta
nooga while Thomas was fighting the bat
tle of Chickamauga ; that Rosecrans came
near losing his command by refusin to
make a diversion against Bragg in
favor
of Grant, when the latter was in front of
Vicksburg, and that the delay of his ad
vance was as much against orders as was
his pushing forward from Chattanooga after
he had reached there. This statement is
undoubtedly untrue. No one will believe
that Rosecrans was asleep while the battle
was raging. The correspondents with
the army say that ho is subject to fits of
epilepsy, whiuh have increased upon him
since the battle, and this probably impairs
his usefulness in the field.

Serious Charge Against Seward.

From avreliable source—the most relia
ble which can be desired—we learn a fact
which stands without parallel in the his
tory of republican government and repre•
sentation, and which renders it difficult to
decide what we ought to be more surpris
ed at that it was at all possible, or that
it has not yet become public. Those who
have preserved the least understanding of
the interests of this republic, and the
least sympathy for the maintenance of its
honor,
have been justly not merely sur
prised, but outraged at a policy which,
besides allowing the arch enemy of all re
publicanism to pat his foot on Mexican
without offering a word of remon
atrance, did moreover aid him in this en
terprise, by allowing him to take his war
material from the porta of the North Amer
ican republic, while the shipment of arms
was refused to Mexico. Even this was
ustly characterized not merely as a hn
miliation, but as almost treason to the
country. But what name shall be given
to an act which puts the knife into the
hands of the murderer of two republics,
BO that he may murder the third one, and
soon after the fourth ? The fact of which
we speak is this: Mr. Seward, at the
time when the French invasion was in
progress, delivered to the French minis
ter, Mercier, from the archives of Wash•
ington, all the plane and maps from the
campaign of (}en. Scott, in order thereby
to tacilitate the assassination of t 1
ican republic. In a country Mexico
such plans and maps have quit, it differ-
eat value trom what they poseess in an !
open, cultivated and topographically
known territory. 'they have the value of
a deadly wespou; but even were they
worthless, their surrender would be an
act of low dishonor, infidelity and infamy,
which no government could commit with
out becoming the object of universal con
tempt. For such an extraordinary act
there must exist an extraordinary motive.
What can it be? Did Mr. Seward, by a
servility which was intended to prove its
reliability by throwing away all honor and
self-interest, to turn aside, at the expense
of an unfortunate neighboring state, the
invasion with which a powerful ,l , snot
seemed to threaten this republic ? I
that Caaf , he was not merely the nlimieht,

Whichever way we tufrn, whatever expa

which does not show Mr. Seward, aAI
his chief, to be totally incapable and an
worthy of representing this Repuhl
either from blindness or cowardice. And

Poor republic !
Tho Mexican Throne.
We yee!erday gave the Subsiauceof
latest intelligence from Europe relatiug
to the project of establishing a new Gov
ernment in Mexico, under the auspices
of the Musa of Flaphurg, by favor of
tho intervention of the present r
of the French.
It appears that the Like Maximil
ian has signified his willingness to acrop
he roffered ,ot,clition th a t hi.
elevation to that dignity shall he approv
ed by the Mexican people in a aubusi,,ion
of the question to their universal Rid
f-age. In addition to this condition pre
cedent he asks for such guarantees from
the Powers of Europe as "are indiapem-a
ble to secure Mexico against the dangers
which threaten her integrity and brie.
pendence." Should these guarantees be
obtained, and the universal vote of the
nation be given in his favor, he avows
himself ready to accept the crown, the
assent of his brother, the Emperor of
tria, having been, on these COllditinTlE,
already assured.
The prospect of founding a new inn'
archy in Mexico order such auspices is
not deemed very promising by shrewd
observers in Europe The dal - mines „t•
tending the enterprise are thus recapi ; e•
fated by the London Times :
"The Archduke, after many weeks of
reflection, after long consultations with
his family, and, as we may presum:, oo
little negotiation with the French Emperor,
declares that be considers the chances of
Mexican imperialism so favorable that he
will associate with it his own fortunes sod
the name ot his august house. He
that all the difficulties which are inherent
in the nature of the country, the people,
and its neighbors have been weighed by
him, and that he is prepared to meet
them. For instance, favor him as Euro
peen Powers may, he will still be the sov
ereign of a people poverty stricken
through indolence and demoralized by
misgovernment. No protocols that can
be signed in Paris or VI enna tv tl c I •
him more than a couple ot milli
porant Spaniards and about t, ut
number of Red Indians and halt
subjects. Be must always be ii ...s
-and miles from Europe, and vi - t.ted
from his allies not only by the m nut
by unhealthy lowlands which are likely to
prevent the sending of contingents. He
will always have the Anglo Saxon taco
the north, and, whatever may he the ist•ee
of the American war, the progress of ant
race must tend to tying it into collision
with tho claims of monarchy and catho
licism. All these—the inevitable and in
herent weakness of the new Mexican
State—the Archduke is prepared for, and
he accepts the throne with them.
If the Mexican people can work out,
under imperial institutions, their salsa
Lion from the misrule into which they
have fallen under so-called democritti,!
institutions, we are sure that no lover c.t
humanity will deplore a result so bee- fi
oient. The cause of "popular liberty'' is
not implicated in the preservation of the
anarchy which has obtained iu Mexico
during almost the entire period of its
nominal republicanism, but has rather
been disgraced by the violence and die
order that have pr,vatlE.d in the (1
free Government.
We &Decry, that ~h•mpo
raries profess to he greatly a:arated by
project of the French Emperor, uho has
taken the lead in the enterprise of found
ing this new dynasty in Illexico. For
ourselves, we concur in opinion with Mr.
Secretary Chase, when he refuses to b 9.
"greatly disturbed" by anything subj-cl
to L.o many eventualities. If destined In
prove a blessing to Mexico, the Mon•
archy will vindicate itself. If it proves a
curse or a failure there will he little ores

desirous of learning the art of how to be
strong. In one corner of the room stands
h:s famous lifting machihe. This consists
of a solid frame work of wood about sev
en feet in height, with a platform about
half way up upon which the Doctor gouda
to go through his daily exercise. A
shoulder bar nod a quantity of leather
straps and bends form the harness with
which the feat is performed. Under the
platform the weights are suspended.
These are composed of broad iron plates
of a circular form, resting one upon the
other, and held together by means of a
stout iron rod running through the centre
of each. Surrounding these plates; are
long slim bare of iron running traversely,
and made to be detached or joined to the
main body. They are arranged in this
manner so as to graduate the weight—one
being added as often as is required by the
increasing strength of the practitioner.
They are each of twenty five pounds
weight. The whole body of iron suspend
ed in this manner, and which is raised
daily by Dr. Winship, is 2,600 pounds.
Dr. Winship thinks he shall continue his
experiment until he can raise 3,000
pounds. This, he believes, is the practi
cal limit for one of his organization and
constitution ; but he is of opinion that
men superior to him in these last men
tioned points may be trained to raise far
greater weights.
In another corner of the room a small
horseshoe magnet, suspended by a cord,
attracts the attention of all visitors. Cu
riosity centres upon this trifle from the
following circumstances :—Dr. Winship
began his experiments by suspending an
ordinary horseshoe magnet and adding a
little weight every day to the small piece
of iron attached to the poles. The ens•
tairrng power increases in precise ratio to
the weight added. At first it would RIB
rain twelve ounces—more than this would
cause the iron to detach. In twenty four
'leers another ounce was added and sus
tained, and this experiment was repeated
daily until the magnet now sustains nearly
eleven pounds. the attracting power in
crea+i•tg much more rapidly than at first.
It was this magnet which first gave Dr.
ioship the idea of increasing his own
~vength by gradual development. He
began adding Little by little to the weights
ta.isrd. and raised the amount daily, until
he h practically and in a wonderful
manlier demonstrated the truth of his
theory. An extensive practice now re
wards him for the time and trouble con
sumed in his researches in this direction.

Ballooning for Military Furpolies
The English are experimenting with
h-Oloons to sPe how well they are adapted
t-. ,nlloary purposes. The experiments
have been so far successful that ballocns
arc to be attached to the army. For re—
conuoit€.ring purposes and to obtain infor
mation as the position of an enemy's
torres, nothing could be better. Lee
