THE WAE NEWS.
The XL S. transport Arago from Ililton
Head, at 10 a. m., Charleston Bar at 5 p. in.,
Friday, March 4. The Arago brings a large
number of veteran troops (re-enlisted) on
furlough. Among the cabin passengers are
twenty officers wounded in the late engage
ment in Florida. There is nothing new
from Charleston. The bombardment is still
continued with good effect. The Rebels re
plied at intervals, but rarely doing injury.
The supply steamer Bermuda is reported to
have captured a Rebel privateer in sight of
Fort Piekens. after an exciting chase. The
Rebels had put a prizo crew aboard a cap
tured trading vessel, was not retaken. All
waa quiet at Jacksonville on the 2d. Rein
lorcement3 were rapidly arriving, and Gen
eral Seymour's position was sufficient to re
pel any attack. Our troops are outside the
town, some of them at a distance of eight
miles. Flags of truce had communicated
with the Rebels i3r the purpose of endeav
oring to obtain our wounded. The request
was refused. The main body of the enemy
is encamped between Ten Mile Run and
Baldwin. The Rebels admit their loss.to be
enormous, 6ome setting it as high as 2,000.
On the 27th, a small skirmish occurred be
tween our Cavalry and the Rebels near
Camp Finnegan. The Rebels had five
wounded. None of our men were hurt.
Gen. Gillmore arrived at Jacksonville on
the 29th.
The Rebels have captured three small
vessels in Chesapeake Bay. One of them
is the side-wheel steamer S. P. Thomas, em
ployed as a dispatch steamer between Fort
Monroe and Cherrystone Inlet The other
two were tugs the Titan and the Iola
employed in running between the same
points. The party making the captures
were in a schooner, which is supposed to
have come out of the Rappahan nock. They
foearded the steamer and compelled Capt.
"Webster to give bonds to the amount of
$j?0,000, and then released her. They stole
$1,100 from the Captain.
We have from apparently trustworthy
sources, says the Tribune, the terrible state- i
ment that the prisons in nichmond where!
Union soldiers are kept, were mined when
Kilpatrick's raid was heard of, and that it i
was the certain purpose of Davis or his in
feriors in case of the capture of the city, to
blow the Union prisoners into eternity be
fore the eyes of their rescuers. If Satan
ever conceived a more infernal plan, we
have yet to hear of it. Our lovely Sou" hern
brethern !
A portion of Kilpatrick's cavalry have
marched across the Peninsula to Newport
News Point, and on the 7th were embark
ing for Portsmouth, Va., from which point
they will march on Suffolk, where Gen.
Hickman is threatened by the enemy. The
enemy are pressing at all points in the de
partment. Suffolk, Va. , was captured by the Union
forces on Thursday afternoon after a brief
struggle. On the previous day there was
skirmishing two miles from the place, be
tween the Rebels and three companies of
Colored Union Cavalry. The Rebels lost
25 ; our side 10 killed.
Forty of the 30th Pennsylvania Cavalry
were captured by guerrillas about a mile and
a half from Bristoc Station on Wednesday
a-weck. They were surrounded and com
pelled to surrender. Several of them after
ward escaped.
. Another Perversion. The Coppcr-
rlietuf editors, in their last issue assert that
we charged the Democrats with traducing
and maligning our soldiers. We made no
such charges against Democrats ! Far from
it. We did say, however, that the Copper
head leaders, or semi- Secessionists in the
North, have been "traducing and maligning
and terming as 'Abolitionists' our soldiers
and all others who favor the restoration of
the National authority over the rebellious
States" and we stick to that text This
attempt of the editors of the Copperhead
organ to place themselves and their satel
lites alongside of Democrats such men as
Andrew Johnson, Daniel S. Dickison, Jas.
T. Brady, Thomas Francis Meagher, Benja
min F. Butler, and a host of others is too
ridiculous for serious contemplation. But,
can't our neighbors tell the truth, once, and
astoai.sh the devil and Jeff Davis; or are
they so enchanted by his Satanic Majesty
that they dare not violate his precepts ?
The Pennsylvania Railroad Company are
experimenting with steel rails and steel cap
ped rails. The first cost is much greater
than that of iron rails, but it is claimed that
in the end they are cheaper, that they arc
less liable to break, that bfctter time can be
made on them, and that the weax of the
rolling stock is ksi.
The Penn'a State Senate.
On Tuesday morning, the 8 th, this body
assembled as usual. ' Mr. Connell of Phila
delphia was absent on account of sickness
which was a signal for the Copperhead mi
nority again to show their factious and dis
organizing disposition. The Speaker ob
serving that no quorum was present, order
ed the roll to be called, whereupon every U
nion Senator except Mr. Connell answered
to his name, but not one Copperhead Sena
tor was present. Under existing circum
stances the Senate was compelled to adjourn.
In referring to the course pursued by the
minority on this occasion the Harrisburg
Telegraph says :
"We asserted, a few days since: in these
columns, that the conduct of the minority
in the Senate, reminded us forcibly of the
action of the conspirators in Congress during
the last year of the Buchanan Administra
tion. The traitors in Congress went on pa
ving the way to secession by offering all kinds
of quibbles to the progress of legislation
provoking all sorts of passionate debate,un
til they had prepared the minds of their ig
norant followers outside the halls of legis
lation, to second them in their desperate
games to break up the Government Iden
tically in the same line proceeding step by
step in the same direction with a like de
fiance of the public safety, the dignity of
legislation and the perpetuity of the Gov
ernment, the leaders of the faction known
as the Democratic party, and the avowed al
lies of the slaveholders in rebellion, have
been conducting themselves in the Senate of
Pennsylvania, until their action culminated
on Tuesday morning the 8th, in an act of
secession such as opened the war of rebel
lion on the part of the Southern conspira
tors. At the roll-call in the Senate this mor
ning, not a single Democratic Senator icas
in his seat to answer to his name ! This is
organizing secession in the State of Penn
sylvania It was not the result of an im
pulse which only seized these "bold, bad
men" this morning; but the conclusion of
a plan long in deliberation, to reach the aw
ful point of a bloody struggle in Pennsylva
nia, by which the State Government is to
be disrupted, and whatever willing force
there is in our midst, cast in favor of the
slaveholders' rebellion. The representatives
of the Knights of the Golden Circle who
met in- the land ojflec a few days since, v?i
douhtedly convened to encourage the factious
Senators Wo hft their seats this morning,
t the suicidal course which they have thus
insanely adopted !"
Declination of Mr. Chase.
We published yesterday morning, says the
Pittsburg Commercial of March 12th a let
ter from the Hon. Salmon P. Chase, refus
ing the use of his name in the coming Pres
idential canvass. This step is in harmony
with the high character and honorable sen
timent of his whole life. His splendid abil
ities and invaluable services have drawn a
round him a host of admiring adherents,
who were anxious to elevate him to the
Chief Magistracy. During the ordeal
which has tried the Nation as with fire, Mr.
Chase has supplied the "sinews of war" in
such a masterly maimer as to challenge the
admiration of the financial world, and the
instinctive conviction of the people is that
he ought to be allowed to continue in the
sphere which he has so highly adorned.
He has never sought office. The Presiden
tial chair would add no lustre to his name.
As Secretary of the Treasury, Mr. Chase
stands without an equal, and now, when the
country requires the concentration of all its
strength against the common enemy, it is
gratifying to every lover of his country to
witness men of his ability and influence
sinking all desire of personal ascendency in
the single purpose of suppressing the un
hallowed rebellion w hich seeks to destroy
the very life of the nation. In his letter of
withdrawal to Hon. Jas. C. Hall, Mr. Chase
gives utterance to a noble sentiment, when
he declares that "it was never more impor
" tant than now, that all our efforts and all
" our energies should be devoted to the sup
" pression of the rebellion, and to the resto
" ration of order and prosperity on the solid
" and sure foundation of freedom and im
" partial justice, and earnestly urge all with
" whom my counsels may have weight, to
" allow nothing to divide them while this
" great work, in comparison with which per
" sons and even parties are nothing.rcmains
"unaccomplished."
A "Portrait" and a Photograph.
"The man who is honestly in favor of the Union
and believes that it can only be restored by a 'vig
orous prosecution ot the war' and who endorses
the present war policy of the Administration and
who does not voluntarily offer his services to the
Government is either a knave, or fool, or a cow
ard. If, in the above portrait, we have correctly
described the position of our Jacobin neighbor re
specting the war, he will have no difficulty in
guessing where we think he ought to be. Cop
perhead organ, March 9, 1S64. -
fin the Union army, fighting for the resto
ration of the authority of the Constitution
over the rebellious States, to be sure !
Vice Versa. The Northern man who
is ia favor of offering tenu3 of peace to trai
tors with weapons in their hands who cav
ils at every act of the National authorities
in their efforts to subdue the rebellion who
never utters a word of condemnation against
the rebels for trying to destroy the Union
and the Constitution who sympathises with
the traitors in the South and calls them
"dear Southern brothers" who disparages
and belittles the Federal victories over the
rebels, and who seemingly rejoices when the
Union soldiers are worsted in a fight and
who is engaged in raising funds for the trai
tor Vallaadigham, combines the very es
sence of a fool, knave and coward ; in short,
is a CoppcrJiead, and more to be despised
than the armed Southern traitor, and is
only a befitting associate of Benedict Ar
nold. Our Copperhead neighbors, we pre
sume, will have little difficulty rirj identifying
the foregoing photograph.
Interesting from North Carolina.
The news from North Carolina is full of
interest. The Kinston correspondent of the
Raleigh Confederate, in speaking of the
hanging, on 3Iarch Ctb of twenty-three cap
tured soldiers belonging to Colonel Foster's
eommand, as deserters from the conscription,
says the prisoners were accompanied to the
place of execution by a large concourse of
people, and a strong military escort. They
ascendedthe scaffold with a firm, elastic
step, and met their fate with unflinching
fortitude and determination. They asked
for no quarter, and scornfully spurned all
overtures of concession on condition of re
turning to duty in the Confederate service.
After making their peace with God, they
fearlessly proclaimed their readiness to die
for their country, against which they say
they had been forcibly conscripted to fight
A more sublime exhibition of loyalty to the
old flag was never witnessed. The multi
tude was moved to tears, openly denounced
this cruel massacre, which i3 causing deser
tions from the Confederate service by the
wholesale, and creating an indignation which
it is feared will be uncontrollable. Ira Neal
a drummer-boy, 15 years of age, who had
never been in the rebel service, was among
the number - hung. These executions are
evidently a part of the system of terrorism
to which the Rebels think themselves com
pelled to resort to keep the old North State
in the Confederacy. But there is a restive
ness and threatening spirit among the peo
ple that cannot be subdued. A great riot
took place at Raleigh on the occasion of the
hanging of these native Union soldiers at
Kinston, during which the stars and stripes
were conspicuously displayed, and much vi
olence and excitement prevailed. Rebel
troops were hurried on with all possible dis
patch to quell the out-break. The press
was not allowed to speak of the matter, and
the Raleigh Standard was suppressed soon
after. The native Unioij troops have taken
the matter into their own bauds, and have
given such of their officers who disapprove
of severe measures an opportunity to resign ;
and have also given warning that immediate
death will be inflicted on any officer who
hereafter offers to surrender to the enemy
or to ask for any quarter. Deserters from
the rei cl conscription, and those who have
been in the rebel service, take the ground
that after accepting the President's amnes- ,
ty proclamation they become loyal citizens
of the United States, to which Government
military service is justly due from them, and
which they have no desire to withbold, but
demand as their right to be sworn into the
service. Being deserters, they expect to be
hung if caught by the enemy, hence their
enlisting into the United States service will
not increase their danger. As for repairing
to Fort Monroe, for the purpo.se of being
sent North, and being thus expatriated
from their families, they will not submit to
it The enlistments into the Union army
are on the increase, and several native regi
ments are ready for action.
Return of Sherman's Expedition.
Gen. Shermans expedition has atlast been
officially heard from. Its safe return has
been announced. Gen. Sherman penetrated
35 miles beyond Meridian, and dest03'ed all
the railroads in that vicinity, with 32 loco
motives and a large number of cars. It is
said that he also destroyed forage and pro
visions enough to subsist the rebel army
from three to x months. In one place he
destroyed over $2,000,000 of property, and
at another immense stores and thousands of
bushels of wheat After destroying the
railroads in the vicinity of Meridian, he
turned Westward, and reached Canton on
the Memphis and;New-Orleans railroad with
but little opposition ; and from thence to
ward Vicksburg. He brought with him
large droves of cattle, several thousand
mules, eight thousand negroes, and over
four thousand prisoners. The expedition is
considered as having been an entire success.
General Sherman's loss in killed, wounded
and missing, is said, will reach about 500
being very small, considering the extent of
territory that he traversed.
Bombardment of Fort Powell.
New Orleans advices of the first, received
by the steamer Western Metropolis, state
that the bombardment of Fort Powell, be
low Mobile, continues vigorously. The reb
el batteries replied, but none of our vessels
where seriously hurt A letter from the
fleet says that Admiral Farragut intends to
silence Fort Powell, so as to send his mus
quito fleet into Mobile Bay ; by so doing,
he will cut off forts Morgan and Gaines. The
Bay is said to be obstructed for three miles
below Mobile in such a manner that vessels
are compelled to pass under the guns of two
iron-clads and a battery. Mobile is strong
ly defended at every point It is almost
entirely free of soldiers, 30,000 having gone
to meet Sherman. A letter from Key
West gives a rumor that, one of Admiral Far
agut's steamers had passed Fort Morgan un
der a terrible fire, and another rumor was
that he had captured the works.
Can't see the point we can't in that
remark of the editors of the Copperhead
organ about "attempts to degrade the white
man." But we know of some white men,
just over the way,who are doing less to crush
the rebellion than the . "Amcricans of Afri
can descent" who left tbislace on Thurs
day last for Waterford.
The Richmond Disjtatch says Lent in the
South lasts 365 days.
New Military Arrangements.
, Washington, March 1 1. The following
military arrangements have been made :
First. By order of the President Lieu
tenant-Grant is assigned to the command of
the armies ot the united btates.
Second. Major General Halleck is reliev
ed from duty as General-iu-Chief, and as
signed to special duty at Washington - as
Chief of the fatal! ot armies. -
Third. Major General Sherman is assign
ed to command the Mmtarv Division ot the
Mississippi, lately commanded by General
Grant, and comprising the Departments of
the Ohio, Cumberland, lennessee and Ar
kansas.
Fourth. Major General McPherson is as
signed to command the Department of the
lennessee," recently commanded by uen,
Sherman. .
Fifth. Lieutenant General Grant will es
ttblish his headquarters in the field, with
the respective armies operating under his
personal supervision.
The Florida Campaign.
Gen. Gillmore, it is now positively assert
ed, and not the 1 resident planned the r lor
ida campaign. Rational men knew this, but
the copperhead press used the lie that the
.President bad planned the campaign pur
posely to bring the Government into dis
credit Ihe fact is, that the President nev
er plans a campaign, any more than he
makes a calculation lor the various bureaus
of either of the departments of the Gov
ernment He ma' order a campaign, sug
gesting to those whose duty it is to plan
such enterprises, the policy of the underta
king ; but that the President should do the
work of the military officers of the Govern
ment, is alike ridiculous and absurd. Nev
ertheless, the plan of the Florida campaign
was in all respects a good one ; and had not
its execution been entrusted to a military
upstart and fellow of low prejudices and in
stinct, it would have been a success.
Release of Harry White,
We see it announced that Major Harry
White has at last been released from the
rebel dens at Richmond, where he has been
confined for some six or eight months.
Great efforts had been made for his release
or exchange previous to, and afterthe meet
ing of the Penn'a Legislature, but ail to no
avaiL Now, however, that he no longer
holds a position in the State Senate he is
released. This is nothing more than could
reasonably be expected, as his further de
tention by the rebel authotities cculd no lon
ger accrue to the benefit of the factious mi
nority in our State Senate, who sympathise
with Jeff Davis and his minions.
Apfropos. Generally, when the editors
of the Copperhead organ find themselves in
a tight place, they raise the cry that we have
"stolen" our remarks from somebody else.
Now, of one thing we are sure, that we nev
er "stole" an idea from them, for they have
but one, (the nigger in his multifarious
forms,) and it would bean irreparable loss"
to steal that from them neither have we
ever clandestinely copied a communication
of theirs, and published it before they had
given it to the public ; a fact which, per
haps, our Copperhead neighbors can not as
sert with truth! "They who live in glass
houses should not throw stones."
New Hampshire Election. Returns
from New-IIamshire are nearly complete,

same as last year. The House shows a gain
of nearly 20 Unionists, giving on a joint bal
lot about 75 Union majority against 53 last
year.
Ninety out of one hundred and seven U
nion members in the Ohio Legislature have
signed the following resolution indorsing
President Lincoln, and recommeuding his
nomination :
Resolve J, That in the opinion of this Con
vention, the people of Ohio and her soldiers
in the field demand the re-nomination of A
braham Lincoln to the Presidency of the li
nked States.
But six members refused to sign it ; the
remainder were absent.
"So far from believing that slavery must
die," says the Richmond Whig, "we have
long held the opinion that it is the normal
and only humane relation which labor can
sustain towards capital. When this war is
over we shall urge that every Yankee who
ventures rfo put a foot on Southern soil be
made a slave for life, and wear an iron col
lar, as a badge of inferiority to the African.
Slavery will stab itself to death about the
time the Yankees learn to tell the truth, and
no sooner. "
It is one of the most singular coinciden
ces of the war that Col. Streight, for whom
John Morgan was held as a hostage, should
havtJ escaped from prison at Richmond in
precisely the same manner as Morgan did
from Columbus.
