Bat like the generality of public men

commendable enough, but imprudent.

••LIBERTY AND UNION."
In the Post of Wednesday, in a brief
article we remarked thus "the Demo
cracy will alone be found true to the
end for liberty and Union one and in
s Tarable, now anti forever,"
Upon this the Pittsburgh Pommercial
comments in a- manner so absolutely
senseless as to arouse our pity rather
than our contempt. Here is an exam
ple.
"The only Union which the Democrats pro
-11060 to save is the one which JEFF. Davis is
tor. If this is not the fact, we ask the Post to
explain what it means. How do you propose
to "be Cue to liberty and Union !" What are
you fort Do you maintain that JEFF. DAVIH
will consent to terms that do not contemplate
the success cribs rebellion, and the cense
querl perpetuity of Slavery I"
tile difficulty with the writer of this
stuff, is that he cannot comprehend the
Woo of liberty, except, when applied to
•pouthern: negroes. We Jpropos e to be
true to liberty and Union, by clinging to
the Constitution, and enforcing its pro
isions. When we talk of being "true
to liberty," we mean the liberty of the
citizens as secured by the constitution;
and-as regards negro slavery we leave
that to take its chances, just like any
thing else in rebellion against the Con
stitution. When MR. WEBSTER, thirty
years ago, first gave utterance to the
memorable words in question—liberty
and Union one and inseparable—was be
i alai& of 4341ithern treason? lie like
us, his hujuble echo was speaking of
American liberty In general bearing no
allusion whatever to the cant of Aboli
tion.

leader, Col. SWEITZER, has won immor

As to Col. SWEITZER himself, there is but
sine opinion. No man in the service has
borne himself with more • unflinching
courage in the moment of peril, and
no one has' Otimecl less of the. glory
achieved when danger was over. Such

The New tiupreme Judges
Gov. Miller has appointed Hon.
Thomas Wilson of Winona, and Hon,
S. J. R, 'McMillan of Stillwater, as As
sociate Justices of the Supreme Court,
to till the vacancies 'occasioned by the
resignation of Judges Flandreau and
Atwater.
The selection of these gentlemen for
the vacant seats on the Supreme Bench
is a well-merited recognition Of the
high reputation which both of them have
won, during an unblemished judicial
career in the District Courts of nearly
seven years duration, for those intel
lectual and moral qualities which digni
fy and adorn the Bench.
We trust that the people will, next
fall,' exercise a choice as discriminating
as that of the Governor in the compost
lion of the new judiciary, and that the
Supreme Court may be re-established
in the confidence and respect of the peo
ple, by the election of Judges as emin
ent as these for unspotted integrity, as
well as for learning and abilities.
THE SEA FIGHT
Further Parliettlarli of the Engagement
Between the Kearsage and the Ala
bama.
The following is the extended report
of the battle between the United States
gunboat Kearsage and the Alabama.
The encounter was witnessed by the
English steam yacht Deerhound, which
vessel picked up Semmes and the crew
of the privateer, and took them to Cowes,
and furnishes the following details of tl e
affair. On the morning of Sunday, the
19th, at 10 30, the Alabama was obsery
. ed steaming out of Cherbourg harbor to
wards the U. S. steamer Kearsage.
At 11 o'clock and 10 minutes the Ala
bama commenced the action by tiring
her starboard battery at a distance of
about one mile. The Kearsage also
opened tire immediately with her star
board guns. A sharp engagement, with
rapid firing from both sides, was kept
up, both shot and shell being discharge!.
In maneuvering, both vessels inade
several complete circles at a distance of
from one-quarter to half a mile.
At 12 o'clock the tiring from the Ala•
federate vessel was in a disabled and
sinking state. The Deerhound immedi
ately made towards her, and in passing
the Kearsage was requested to assist in
saving the crew of the Alabama.
When the Deerhound was still at a
distance of two hundred yards, the Ala
bama sunk, and the Deerhound then
lowered her boats, and with the assist
ance of those from the sinking vessel
succeeded in 'saving about forty men,
including Captain Semmes and thirteen
officers- The Kearsage was apparently
much disabled.
The Alabama's loss in killed • and
wounded was as follows: Drowned one,
officer and one Mall; killed, six men;
wounded, one officer and sixteen men.
Semmes is slightly wounded in the
hand. The Kearsage boats were lower
ed, and with the assistance of the French
pilot succeeded in picking up the re
mainder of the crew. It is stated that
a formal challenge to fight was given by
the Kearsage, and accepted by Capt.
Semmes.
According to some accounts the Kear
sage sustained considerable damage, her
sides being open through her chain
plating. A dispatch, however, from
Cherbourg, where it is presumed the
Kearsage had arrived, says that she had
suffered no damage of importance, and
that none of her officers were killed or
wounded. The Kearsage captured six
ty-eight of the officers and crew of the
Alabama.
The Southampton correspondent of
the London Daily News says that on
Mr. Lancaster, of the English yacht
Deerhound, being requested by the cow.
mander of the Kearsage to save from
drowning the Alabama's men in the
water, he proceeded to do so. Passing
near one of the men who was in the
water, nearly exhausted, one of the
crew in the boat cried out. ':That's
Semmes." and the drowning man res
ponded, "Save me, 1 am the Captain;
I cannot keep up any longer." Lie was
dragged in, when he said, "For God's
sake don't put me on board the Kear
sage, but put me on board your yacht."
This was promised and Semmes was,
stowed away in the bottom of the boat,
and covored with a sail to conceal him
from those in the Ketarsage's boats;
which were evidently anxiously search
ing for him. He was then taken to the
yacht and placed below. Mr. Lanctut r
soon after hastened away fearful that be
would be overhauled and his vess2.l
serched.
Thus was Semmes saved from the gal
lows by a contemplated trick played by
a friendly Englishmen.
The Paris correspondence of the Lon
don Globe says that the Alabama made
two attempts to board the Kearsage, but
the commander of the Federal vessel
outmanocuvered `Semmes, and finally
sent a projectile right through the Al
abama's boiler. Then seeing what had
occured, he brought all his guns to bear
on the pirate, in a concentrated broad
side from the starboard side of the Kear
sage and made a breach four yards in
length under her boiler mark, when she
began to sink rapidly.
The New York Commercial's Paris
correspondent says that Semmes was or
dered.to leaye Cherburg by the French
government, on the demand of Mr. Day
ton, who based his demand upon the
fact that the Alabama did not en ive there
through stress of weather, but for re
pairs, which it would take months to
complete. Semmes finding it impossible
to stay, and knowing that the Kearsage
was waiting bir him, sent her command
er a challenge, which was promptly ac
cepted.
There was not a ghost of a chance for
the Alabama at any time during the fight.
Men engaged in privateering are not
able to stand up before our well-trained
marinesand sailors in deadly fight. The
Alabama, after being disabled, was sunk
by 'a broadside, which tore through her
Water line. The Kearsage was not se.
&tally damaged.
Ldeniand will belmade upon the Eng
lialietfehmient foilhetinditton of those
picked up by the yacht.

A DESPERATE attempt to escape was
made on the Fourth of July, by the rebel
prisoners confined iu Camp Chase. On
the morning of that day a number of
them, thirty in all, attacked and over
powered the sentinel, as the Sanitary
cart was passing out of the garrison, and
by this means succeeded in freeing them
selves for a while. They were immedi
st dy fired upon by the guard on the
parapet, and two of them fell down
wounded, the remaining fugitives took
advantage of the piles of wood near the
garrison, and it is said that some of them
made their escape out of the camp. The
alarm being given, all wlna succeeded in
getting out of the iuclosure, were recap
tured and conducted to the garrison.
It is difficult to reconcile the above
statement, with the daily accounts re
ceived in some papers, affirming that
the "robs" are glad to be captured, in
order to enjoy a better living in the
North.
REFUSINIi 'FLIEIR OWN INF.
The New York Exprcss says the cler
gymen of New Jersey and New York
have sent on a petition to Washington
asking exemption from the draft. To
comply with their request would be the
hight of injustice. They were iu a great
degree the authors of the war, and they
have been the loudest in shouting
for its continuance. They have fair
ly howled for blood. Instead of Peing
exempted, they ought all to be - dratted
and put in the front of the battle, and
they, should lead 'in every attack upon
the enemy's works. It is mean and
cowardly for them to ask an exemption
While they are anxious to see everybody
else drafted and slaughtered.

Belle Isle has been reopened again, and
some hundreds of prisoners of war in

It occurs on next Monday. There are
many who suppose that Grant will ac
