Wortht of Emulation. The associate
judges of Crawford ccunty have refused to
grant any licences for the sale of intoxicating
liquor. There is an example in this, worthy
of emulation. If the sale of intoxicating li
quor was restricted in every county in the loy
al States; and if it was prevented in its flow
into the army, how long would it take to end
the war by the complete victory of -the Gov
ernment 7 Whisky has a groat deal to do
with the fury of treason, the spite of cunning
conspirators in our own midst, and the mis
takes of those whose disasters so often terrify
the country with dismay. Let us hope, then,
that the noble example of the associate judges
of Crawrord county will be eraplated by those
having power in the same premises through
out tbe entire length and breadth of the land.

V watching our movements, and about 6 o'-
clock the engineers commenced operations,
when they flopped into their rifle pits and com';
ruenced picking off onr men. Our artillery, a
bout 20 gnns, opened npon them, but with lit
tle effect, when .at 65 o'clock the 29th New
York was ordered into the boats, who pushed
over under a dense Are and drove the rebels
from their rifle ;iits. Other regiments sron fol
lowed in the boats until about ten brigades were
over. The engineflw then proceeded to com'
plete the bridges, and at 9 P. M. the whole
Howe's division had passed over. Our forces
advanced; cautiously, deployed skirmishers,
but mtt no enemy in force. Our crossing
took the enemy by surprise. ' We took about
100 prisoners, iueluding . one Major. This
bold movement has demonstrated what became
of the enemy, besides divining bis purposes
Our men behaved most gallantly, cheering as
they crossed for the third time, this historic
river. The movement has thiilledthe army
with excitement and impatience.-
From Port II row. This strong1 rebel
stronghold is invested by Geti. 'Banks. On
Ma 27th, Gen. Sherman attempted to carry
a section of the enemy's works at the point of
the bayonet, hut was repulsed not, howev
er, until Col. Clarke of the 6th Michigan had
carried the colors of his regiment iustde of
the first line of rebel fortifications and had
raised them upon the rebel flagstaff. Our loss
was heavy. The 2d regiment Louisiana Na
ttve Guards (colored,) Col. Neilson, attracted
great attention lor their undaunted bravery.
They lost COO killed out of 990 men. The
New York Herald's correspondent says, tint
the flower of the British army" at the cele
brated storming of Cuidad Kodrigo "never
moved w ith firmer ste.p or more solid column"
than did this 2d division of Gen. Bank's army
to the assault of Port Hudson, with a negro
regiment in the advance. ; Gen. Banks moved
from point to point along the lines witb per
fect coolness. His quick eye would detect a
laggard movement or an unprotected position,
and an aid would at once be dispatched. The
most perfect confidence was felt (it at this reb
el stronghold would succomb to the Union
forces.
From VicKSBmo. The siege ol Vicksburg
is progressing favorably. A bearer ol dis
patches from Pemberton to Johnston was cap
tured on May 28th. The dispatch reads
"Forage all gone; men on quarter rations;
can hold out ten days." On the 28th Gen
Grint ordered every gun in position to throw
shell into the city .and in one hour 3,600 shells
were safely lodged within its limits. Col
Blair made an expedition through the coun
try from the Big Black to the Yazoo, destroy
ing much rebel property, but nothing definite
was ascertained of the whereabouts of Joe.

raise a sufficient force to attack. Grant. The
