Ottr rights as derived from nature and declared and secured to us by our State and Federal Constitutions. 5. And the enforcement of the laws, whether against armed rebellion or arm ed usurpation! There is.very little doubt that General Grant has given up direct•attacks upon Petersburg. We think he has begun a new flank movement, by which he ex pects to turn it. Which way he has marched, however, is not yet evident. On Sunday last, General Grant,s troops lay quietly in their trenches around Petersburg. The Northern flank was held by Brooks' Corps, which was north of the Appomattox and in front of Bermuda Hundred; Wright was south of Brooks and south of the Appomattox; Hancock was south of Wright: Burn side southwest of Hancock, and Warren on the southern flank. Warren was on the railaoad to Norfolk, and southeast of the town. Smith, with the negroes was in reserve at Bermuda Hundred. The Con federates defend Petersburg from three hills. One is a long ridge north of the Appomattox, running from the town towards Port Walthall. Heavy batteries, the largest ealled Fort Clinton,are placed upon it, which not only command the town, but fire across the river and pre vent any movements by Hancock and Wright. Northeast of the town, just outside of the suburbs and standing on the south side of the Appomattox, is a high, round hill, called Old Church Hill. This confronts Hancock and Burnside. Southeast of the town and also near the suburbs is Reservoir Hill. This pre vents Warren from advancing. Between Reservoir and Old Church Hills there is a plain view of the town. All these hills are fortified with strong works and flank ed by rifle-pits and abattis. They are connected by strong lines of earthworks. Fort Clinton, on the north side of the river, is the most commanding eminence. It overlooks all the others. On Sunday, beyond a sharp skirmish after night, nothing was done. The flag qf truce sent into the enemy's line was refused, but an arrangement to bury the dead was subsequently made. On Mon day'morning cannonading began, but it soon ceased. Our latest intelligence is 'to half-past four o'clock yesterday after noon. No fighting had occurred. The Confederates have a strong force on the top of Malvern Hill, which is on the north bank of the James River, oppo site Bermuda Hundred. Unsuccessful attempts have been make to drive them away. No shells from gunboats can reach them. The Federal gunboats go up the river as far as Dutch Gap, and protect the flank of the army. The Con federate gunboats are Just above Dutch Gap, and protect their flank. Mr. Lin coln, on Tuesday afternoon, started on a visit to the Federal camp. He reached there last night, and is no* with General Grant. A direct attack upon Petersburg is aimobt hopeless. A flank movement, if anything, can capture the town.—Age. NEWS FROM WASHINGTON The Monroe Doctrine Again MownDot. ed by — Republican Congressorten—Mr. Seward's Docti lase Uppermost—Sup pressed Correspondence on the Mexi can question. The Monroe-Doetilue Reeolutlon Senator McDougall introduced in the Senate to-day the identical resolution adopted at the Baltimore Convention, reaffirming the Monroe doctrine. A fairer hit was never made. The Senate Foreign Relations Committee, under the rule of Mr. Seward; will not permit their I mil party resolution, thus introduced to come up for consideration. It is transparent that the Monroe-doctrine plank in the Baltimore platform is mere ly for buncombe, for a Republican Con gress dare not stand by it. The Senate Committe on Foreign Af fairs to-day resumed the consideration of the Mexican question Senator McDoug all has endeavored by every possible means to get the committeeto indorse the Baltimore platform in regard to this mat ter. But Mr. Seward's infinence, it ap pears, is boned to prevail. The com mittee will not even allow the corres pondence to be printed, called for by Senator Wade, between Secretary Se ward and the Mexican minister, relative to trade between France and the United States, while France and Mexico were at war with each other, in articles sup posed to be in derogation of the right of neutrals. Seward seems to be,parrying on matters with a high hand. The following statement is from an out-and-out Abolition-Lincoln paper,the Chicago Tribune, and from a letter da ted June 7. Let no man call what is hero said a Copperhead slander, for if he does, swift witness will rise up against his accusations, and the testimony of men °Phis own household be thrown iu his teeth. We quote: "Trade stores at Natchez, Vicksburg and everywhere else along the river only serve to feed the rebels and their friends. The treasury agents and some of the military officials are coining for tunes, and those who are favored by them are equally successful. I could narrate column alter column of official and unofficial dishonesty of all . degrees, from 'sharp trading' up to outright theft, I could tell you how treasury agents have made fortunes in a few months, how commanders of posts and provost marshals have done likewise, how un principled traders are furnishing cloth ing and war munitions to guerrillas in exchange for cotton ; how many captains openly receive bribes for protecting the shipment of cotton, and how official fa vors are everywhere purchased. The limits of this letter will not sake for an explanation<rf the fifteenth portion of the fraud upon the government and upon in dividuals, and I will drop the subject. Concience, honor, and loyality, men are daily bartering away. Cotton is king,- and his reign is supreme." THEY are holding public meetings in Brooklyn, to remedy the filthy condition of the streets. „Di SAITRDAY A PLATFORM The War WASHINGTON, June '22 The Mexican Question Official Corruption WHAT THE REBELS SAY Why General Lee . :Wished Grant To Thic Ctew e l atiiinies River. I t iB'f4ol,lo(ktly the rebel leaders that the mtlevers of General Lee on the 12th atZ 13th, =lithe disposition of his forceitn, the 18‘11 and 14th, as described prevented General Grant from advancing on Richmond by the roads on the north side Of the James riv• er: If your readers will examine a good military map, they will see some of the reasons why General Lee was apprehen sive that our army would advance on Richmond by that route. It is the route which General .McClellan would have taken from Harrison's landing, it he had been properly reinforced after the first of July. If General Grant's army, in stead of moving towards the James river on the 14th inst., had taken possession otMalvern hills and the Quaker f ond on that day, they would have been in it tar more favorable position for taking R:ch mond than they ate to-day; ant they would have done, too, the ye y th n : 2: that they should not do. Their the way up Fort Darling, would have been pro tected by our iron-clad fl" t The White Oak swamp would have afforded their right flank ample protection. The only obstacle between them and Richmond, would have been the rebel army, an army not over ninety thousand strong, while 0, neral Grant's must have been very much larger. General Lee could not look to the result of a battle fought upon that ground, and under those cir cumstances, with any degree of coati. dence. General Grant's movement to the James river, therefore, not only re lieved General Lee of these apprehen sions, bnt it also enabled him to put into execution certain plans directed against General Hunter which he had not been able to do hitherto. His first step in that direction was to send Gen eral Pickett's division to Gordonsville, and to see that the railroad between that place and Richmond was put in perfect order. This road, it will be seen affords him another route by which to receive his supplies at Richmond, front Lynch burg, by way of Charlottesville- Wheth er General Sheridan was defeated or not, it is certain that the measures taken by General Lee prevented him front reach ing Charlottesville, and have secured the safety of that railroad for the present. The Defenses of Petefsburg. When General Lee ascertained that the Union army was crossing the James river at Windmill Point, he knew that their destination was Petersburg. No immediate danger then threatened the rebel capital. An attack on Petersburg had been an tidp.o..l as long ago as when the c.on psign first began, and ample provision had been made even then, to tepel it. Petersburg had been fortified at that time, in accordance ith a plan furnish ed by General Beauregat d. What kind of fortifications they are which defend Pe tersburg, can be imagined by the results of the attacks that have been made upon them by the whole strength of General Grant's army; for four success ive days. The full details of those bat ' ties have not yet been made public. When they are fully known, it will be seen that in those assaults our loss has been quite as great as it would have been if General Grant had made a do . termined advance on Richmond by the New Market and Quaker roads. The obstacles that he has between the Quaker road and Rb:huarnd, according to rebel authority, are no greater than those between City Point and Peters burg. At all events, the blttles of the four days before Petersburg have inflict ed on us a heavy loss in men and valu able officers. Many colonels command ing brigades, and majors commanding regiments have been killed ..n.l perm,- nently disabled by wounds in these ac tions, and their places will he hard to fill. The fighting on the 18th is said to have been the most deperate and sanguin ary of all, and yet the principal line of the enemy's works still remains in their possession. It was only the outworks, the inferior and weaker lines, of winch Mr. Dana said: "These te,ral.:.§ seers of the very strongest kind, mere difficult to loke than Missionary Ridge teas." General Lee's 3leaKares lie Defense of Petersburg. Such was Petersburg; and such Gen eral Lee knew it to be when it became evident to him that that ovas the desli nation of the Union army! The events of the siege of Petersburg show he judg ed correctly of its pow. rs of rcsistanre. The reinforcement of the tro,ps there, by the rebel forces that had been post ed in front of Butter, between Bermuda Hundred and the railroad, is said to have been 'a ruse to draw Butler 'Ail Of his entrenchments, in order that he might be captured, and his forces cut OH. The railroad from Richmond to within a short distance of Petersburg has been in full possession of the rebels for the last two weeks, notwithstanding all of But ler's boasts to the contrary. Peters burg was not reinforcti front Lee's army, however, until the 18th. On that day the main body of the rebel army had arrived on the west side of the Ap putmattax, and some brigades crossed over into Petersburg. It was supposed at Richmond that General Lee's intention was to hold the Federal army at bay as long as possible at Petersburg, and then to make another stand at a position which has been for tified on the west side of the river. It was b.dieved that these two positions could - be maintained for many days yet. The Question Solved. A short method of solving the ques tion whether the Southern Slates are out of the Union, or not, was demonstra ted In the Senate on the 13th inst., by Mr. Howe, of Wisconsin. He said: "I have a document in my hand enti tled 'the Constitution of the United States.' and here is a clause which reads: "The Senate of the United States shall be composed of two Senators from each State, chosen by the Legislature thereof for six years, and each Senator shall have one vote.' "If this is a genuine document and that is a binding law, it opens up the inquiry whether the State of Arkansas is a State of the Union? I have another document which is entitled 'An act for the admission of the State of Arkansas into the Union, and to provide for the due execution of the laws of the United States within the same, and for other purposes.' A clause in tkat act reads as follows: That the State of Arkansas shall be one, and is hereby declared to be one, of the United States of America, and admitted into the Union on an equal footing with the original States, in all respects whatever, and the said State shall consist of all the territory included within the following boundaries, to-wit: "I will not read the bounii,aries. I suppose the body which enacted that law had authority to enact it, and I suppose it to be a law to day which binds this Senate and binds the President and binds each of the agencies and all the authori ties of the United States except the law making power, unless it has been repeal ed or abrogated. It' It has been repealed I ask when, and by whom ? There are those who say it was repealed by the people of Arkansas. I think they are mistaken. think the people of Arkan sas cannot repeal one of the acts of Con gress, and I suspect it will not be sett only contended by anybody on thl4-' floor. There are others who suggest, If they do not say, that it has been repeal ed by the President of the United States. I think they are mistaken also. Ido not, believe the President of the United Stat can repeal one of these laws." This would seem conclusive to any man -who was not determined that it. Should not be trite. Petersbiug Petersburg is a handsome city of from Eighteen to twenty thousand resident population,. in Dinwiddie county, Va., bn the right or south bank of the Appo mattox river, at• the crossing of the Great Southern Railroad, twenty-two miles south of Richmond, and ten miles from the James river at City Point. It is the third town of Virginia in respect to pop ulation, and possesses extensive facili ties for business. Vessels of one hundred tons ascend the -river to the town, and those of larger size to Waltham's land ing, six miles below. The South Side I Railroad has its eastern terminus at this place, and the Appomattox Railroad con nects it with C,ty Point at the mouth of the river. The tails of the Appomattox, which arrest the ascent of thelide immediately above Petersburg, furnish exteusive r.power. Around these falls a canal has heen constructed, by which means small buts ascend the river a distance of lOU aisles. The limits of the borough include the decayed village of Blandford, In Prince George co., which was once superior to Petersburg in some respects. The remains of its church are among the moat interesting and picturesque views in Virginia. Petersburg is lighted with gas and abundantly supplied with water from a reservoir. It is well built and naturally 'drained, the ground des cending gradually from the heights on the southern outskirts down to the river. The principal public buildings are the Custom House and Postottice, Court House, Mechanics Hall, Phenix Hall and Public Library. There are fifty pro• ductiveormanufacturing establishments The sales of cotton In 1801 ampunted to :15.000 hales.

Foua strong-minded British females on their travels, were arrested on Penti cost Sunday in the Cathedral of Cologne, where they were "improving the occas ion" by distributing tracts denouncing the Catholic Church, its ministers and its doctrines.

A FEW days ago a flock of large birds of strange appearance alighted from a night over the lake, at Burlington Bay, near Hamilton, in tipper Canada. It was found that they were pelicans, all the way from the shores of the Gulf, or the lower beachts of the Misslssipl. These birds have often been killed as far up the Mississippi as Keokuk, in lowa, but their appearance in Canada is very unusual. Another rare visitor has been shot. at Girondines, Canada. It was the glosso ibis, found in Texas Mexico, and California, but seldona seen at the North. FORTY YEARS.—Forty years once seemed along and weary pilgrimage. To tread it now seems but a step. Arid yet along the way are broken shrines where a thousand hopes have wasted into ashes; foot-prints sacred under the drifting dust; green mounds whose grass is esh with watering tears:—shadows even we could not forget. We will gar ner the sunshine of those years, and whit chastened steps and reasonable hopes, push on toward the evening whose signal light will soon be seen swinging where the waters are still and storms never come.
