PLAIN TALK
‘ Mr. Clay, of Kentucky. one of the. mem
bers of Coingrcss elected by the influence of
the bayonet, said in a rung debate in the
House that "the property 0 tis constituents
had been stolen from :their plantations—
not only ncgroes, butstovk and everything.
else. The ‘negroes which were vuluablel
were taken into the‘ military service; while]
the useless elnven, and wpmcn and children i
are supported at the expense ofgovernment_
without a particle of law. The government"
‘ protected its officers in stealing negroes.—~|
1 He. knew it, to be true. He bnd suffered
himself, and to the truth of this he would'
swear in a court of justice. He asked for.
nothing but what the law and the constitu-a
tion gave him. and when these 'rights were}
trampled under foot he would raise his
voice against it.” lie also said that. “the!
oontmbanrls were dying in camp of all dis‘[
eases erg:- described or imagined. ‘They i
were rolling in filth.” And addressmg the ‘
radicals. 1.; added: “Such is the re‘eult of
your system. You care no more for a ne~'
gro than you do for a horse. “ You are pur-l
chasing these negroes with bounties to save
white men. My patience is worn out. I
would rather be a slave holder than robber. }
stealing nll over the country. The system ;
inaugurated was worse than the miginal
system of slavery. More money is required I
to carry it out than it cast; to clothe the[
slaves ot‘ till the South.”
LABORING MEN, [READS
We have, time and again. warned the
poor laboring men of the hostility existing
in the Abolition ranks against them. and of
the determined purpose to degrade them
to the level of the negro. Innovations up
on State rights, Constitutional righfi, civil
rights, freedom of speech and personal libl
erty, have been rapid and startling during
the past three years, and it is but reasona
ble to suppose that other innovations will
soon follow. Unless the currentisstemmed
by an exergetic expression at the polls next
October and November, that may be the
last opportunity the‘ponr man may have to
cast a ballot for the men and principles of
his choice. The question has already been
mooted in Congress. The proposition to
deprive the poor white man of the‘ right - ‘
voting was actually made in the. United
States Senate, a few days ago, by Senator
Mprrill, 8 Vermont. yankee, whdproposed
that the right of suffrage in the District of
Columbia should be given to all whites and
blacks” Who possessed a freehold of $2.10,
and denied to all others ! Many of the
Abolition Senators were afraid to meet the
issue, in this torm,just at this time.’ Mr.
,Cowan, of Pennsylvania, protested that/new
and distrscting questions should not be
brought forward now. The evident. inten~
t‘ion is to postpone the .matter until Lin~
coin is elected, it' he can be. when look out

' There is but little intelligence ot ii relin
hle character from the Army of Virginia.

'General Grant has nbanr'oaed the North

his army on to Pamunkcy river. He has
thus reached the point where. General Mo:

General Grant’s progress, before he reaches

i [Specili Dilpatch to the World.]
l ’ “7LSEINGTON, May 30.
. The reasons which. impelled General
|Grant. to make'thn last great flunk move
‘ ment. now that it has been accomplished.
i may be briefly stated. ‘lle found Lee’s ar
gmy ntiongly intrenched in a position be
:tween the North and South Annnl, with
one‘wini resting upon the railroad near
Sexton’s junction. and the other protected
by Bull marsh, an alniostimpassible mom-4n.
These wings were thrown forward. while
the center of the rebel army rested upon
the Little river—thus forming a V. The
intrcnchment‘ii were perhaps hastily erect
ed strur-tures. but the natural conformation
lot' the ground was uuch that but little labor
I was required to present formidable harriers
‘to further advance. Part of the Army of
~ the Potomac had already been thrown
litcrmis- the North moonwliere the ficon
inoissance Wll‘i made which developed their
' position, and General Grant probably fore
saw the dillii-ulties he would have to en
icounter if he attempted to didodge hil en
irmy by it direct asunult upon llltl pmition.
"l'o rest inactive on that field. for any length
of time, w iuld endanger the safety of the
force already across, and as Lee was rapidly
bringing up reirforcemenu, he could not,
hope to succeed in successfully holding his ‘
lposition long wltli a river dividing his army.
If these reasons were insufficient. one more ‘
cogent was found In the fact that a heavy,
rainnstorm on Wedneulay swelled the wa
‘ters of the North Minn: so that, utlleifi
speedly crowed, the stream would hcoimicl
.\0 mui-h of a torrent. as to he unl'ordiible.—l
The rain must neceeanily have had a cor
re=po'niling etl‘ect upon the waters of the
South Anna; and even if lice ictreated
across the i-trcam its swollen character
l would preventGi-neral Grant’s pursuit with-l
lout the aid of bridges. y
’ Under these circumvtances General
Grant. determined to rccroi-w that portion?
inf his army which had gained the south
it} tnk ol'the North’Alnnn. In order to cov-i
. er the movement an attack was made upon .
