The last interest in the success of the Confederacy is destroyed; the last tie of relationship with treason is broken, and now Maryland is . bound both by hoc inter est and her sympathy to , stand by the Gov ernment, While we rejoice to feel that the North will now have the benefit of her un divided assistance, we rejoice more to know that her own prosperity will be enhanced, and that the power and greatness which al ways follow in the train of free institutions, will certainly be the reward of her noble,act ofJustice. .:M;2lt; 00Li. alt jet' ,:e 7/T ip•;i - 1.:01:. , avor, j.,:0 EMI u )L f ISM :,1:1A CI"; IY7 :1;1 irds ..;1:1'y Obic,— r^ R UC":~I:--S;ltif~ , 'ua appointment of Professor W. 11.

His personal presence there, is initself, ,of but little moment. The Government which has for threeyears defend ed itself successfully against the attacks of its open and secret foeS can not now be de stroyed by the counsels or actions Of a single' additional enemy. We sincerely hope that he may be permitted the use his best in fluence rind mr,st strenuous 0:C01110119 to re vive the walling fortunes of his friends. There are some circumstances however connected with yallandigham's return which might bring the blush of shame'to the. face of every patriot, as they assuredly will cause a shout of joy in the Rebel Capital when they are narrated there. On the day of his re turn the Democratic Convention of his coun ty was in session and of course was honored by a visit. We are told that his appear ance was the signal for an outburst of the wildest enthusiasm. Immediately a despatch is sent to the Democratic State Convention of Illinois informing it of his arrival. Here the mere announcement of his return pvo duced an effect similar to that caused by his presenceat Dayton. The entire Convention greeted the announcement - with shouts and cheers and at once resolved to stand by Val landigham, in case his conduct should force the Govermnont again to lay hold of him. Almost the entire. press of it great political party in the Coonl7 speak with pleasure of his return and lavish kind words and com pliments on bin as though lie were a patriot chieftain whose valor had ov.Tcorne the Re publie',-, foes in4te:ei of a traitor who haul done his utmost to aid thf What causes thi, , recep(km of the returned exile. and why do I)emorrai.s vie with each other in their demonstration , iore,tion and resrp., , r:t for him 10- 11S11 they suppose his pre , ence here will add , -trongth to h party or inorett4e itschnc...; of succo , ,i?

Their p"rseverance however, has at length caused their efforts to be noticed and now a number of South ern journals acknowledge the value of their services and speak words of encouragement to them. This is right. A party that has sacrificed every possible chance of access in order that it might serve the interests of the Confederacy, an last tke poor return of the rebel thanks. We giye here an extract from n rebel newspaper which will show how well their 'designs are understood and how fully their kindness is appreciated. From the Atlanta (Georgia) lloglster Es-President Pierce, Sep - hour, of Con necticut, Vallandigham, Reed, Wood, Rich ardson, and hundreds of others, are as hos tile to the war as they are to black Repub licanism. These men are doing us an indi rect service, They aro not openly and avowedly our friends, nor could we reason ably ask this of them. Rut they are not our • .1490c1y 01;ipins,... _United against ilir: Liia rein and his wicked ,policy, breasting the pow er of an overwhelming majority, firm to the traditions and precedents of constitutional liberty, the noblp band of patriots is.,4trivin,g_ to erect a :breakwater that Shall arrest the surges. of the unloosed deluge. If they did no more than:resist the eentralixition of Mr. Lincoln, that far they are worthy of our re spedt and sympathy,.

Step by step the same convie, tions and the same temper that have braced them in compact - unity and fiery 'valor, to denounce ultra Federalism and Now En gland fanaticistn, will inevitably bring them upon the right ground as it respects our in dependence.

They understand each other' and their efforts and interests are mutual: But wein sist that it is about time for the Democracy to cease their professions of loyalty, when the open enemies of the Country acknowledge the value of their services, and. confess "faith -in their political principles." The Rebels never, pretend that they use their bullets fd the restoration of the Union or the preser vation of the Constitution, but the men whom they claim as their friends and-whose political course meets their cordial approba tion, declare that they alone, are the proper guardians and conservators of both.

The Bishop's address WAS eloquent and in spiring throughout. He is an orator in the full sense of the term, and probably never appeared to better advantage than on this weasion. Many inquiries have been made about General Grant's politics. We arc happy to in form oar• readers from his own lips to what party he belongs, and under what'hanni;.r he marches. A near relative to him has been some time in this city. While with Gen.

"Did you give the parties any information''" was the quiet query, "I dill not," was the answer, ''for 1 don't krtow what your polities are." Knocking the ashes from his cigar, the General continued, ' "When I resided at the South I had the opin ions and prejudices of South= people a gainst the Republican party.

MORTON'S OPINION OF FREMONT. —At a Lincoln rtilifleation meeting held few evenings since in I ndiannpnlis, Gov. :Morton, refering to Gon. Fremont'; letter accepting the nomination of the Cleve land Convention, said the silence of Fre mont in regard to the prosecution of the war and suppression of the rebellion gave rise to most painful apprehensions of his true po sition. He (Morton) had carried his stand ard in '5B and endeavor to sustain him as a politician and military chieftain, and never until be saw that letter, had cause to regret what - he had done. The letter gave joy to his enemies and pain to his friends; and (limit ing one•or two sentences, there is nothing in it than might not have been written and subscribed to, without inconsistency, by Mr. Vallandigham. The cute in the House on the proposition to repeal the commutation clause of the en rollment law was one hundred against to fifty in favor.

THE REBELS ATTACK NN SIDE'S CORPS They are Repulsed, and our Men Nain- tain their Ground IVAsumrroN, June 28. A dispatch dated_ Headquarters armx of the Potomac June 27, 6 A. m. says: An attack was made on Burnside's line about eleven o'clock on Saturday night, with the intention of drawing back a working party who were engaged in digging intrench ments towards the enemy, so as to gain a better position in which to place guns to inure elfectualy cover the works in front. The tiring was very brisk for about one hour, resulting in our men holding their ground and continuing their labors without any loss of consequence. The usual amount. of picket Bring took place yesterday, being a little more persis tent in front of the ;Ith corps than at any other point. It is usual to relieve picket lines shortly after dark, and the enemy beinggenerally on the alert at that time the least noise invaria bly cruises th,:in to ole•u lire, in the hope of being able to pick oil some men while the change is being made. It is seldom any harm results from these attacks, as the men have become so earertil to screen themselves that it is next to impossible for the Rebel sharpshooters to get range of them. The• health of the troops is in the main good, Considering the oppressively hot weath er they have had since crossing the James river, and the scarcity of water in this sec tion. The 18tli corps seems to have the greatest number in the hospitals from the effects of the weather. 'The colored troops are represented as be ing unaffected by the heat. surgeon Jackson, in charge of the 4th di vision hospital, itch corps, reports that in that division only forty men out of more than four thousand were unlit fur duty when they sync put in front on Tuesday last to relieve the 2d corps. This tends to show how much better they can endure the scorch ing rays of the sun titan the white troops.

If colored troops storm and carry the works of the enemy taking guns and prisoners and display all the qualities of good soldiers, we think, at least while they are doing this they might be allowed to escape the slanders and ridicule of those who distinguish themselves only by paper combats.

Commeneemelit Week. The past week has been one of unusual in terest to the citizens of our Borough. The exercises at ending the closing of the terms of.our differ 4t institutiles of learning have occupied almdfst the entire week, both day and'evening. Musical E,xhibitions, Public "School Exhibitions, Baccalaureate Address es, Sermons, and Poenis before College As sociations, Prize Contests and Commence ment Exercises have followed each other in such rapid succession, that we have been al: most bewildered with-the continued stream of literature that has poured itself around us. We are happy to say that all these per formances have shown an excellence of which we may well be proud. The students and pupils of the different Colleges and Schools in our Borough, have shown by their public performances, that those in charge of them have fulfilled their arduous duties faithfully, and also, that the benefits of good y tratlung and careful culture have not been bestowed on them in vain. Noth- 4 . Mg could give us more pleasure than t 04,, able to give such en extended account ot r ih e exercises as would enable those of our i .i.; ft ,l_ ers who were Hot to judge fit their merits, but we fear the nurnbtlr is to, great to allow us to do full justice to all.— We will however, devote as much of our columns as we can to the Exercises of the week. On Thursday evening of last week, ti young ladies of the Carlisle Female nary, in charge of Rev. E. H. Nevin, fa vored us with an exhibition, consisting of :Musical selections, both Vocal and Instru mental, and dialogues. The exercises were of an interesting character and reflected great credit on those who participated in them. The execution of a number of quite difficult selections of Instrumental Music, evinced at once the musical talents of the performers and also the care that had been bostow , d upon their instruction. The introduction of two dialogues into the exercises had a happy effect upon the audi ence, who testified their appreciation of the "Crowning of Florence Nightingale, - and Uncle Sam's Family, - by hearty rounds of applause. On the whole the exhibition was a complete• stleces: , , and we feel certain that our community fully appreciate the efforts of all who engaged in it and will rem,mber it as an occasion of unusual interest. On Sunday Morning the Baccalaureate sermon was delivered be lb rd the graduating class of Diekinion College' by the Rev. 11. M. Johmon D. 1). It i; needless to say any thing concerning it; merits. Dr. Jubnion's reputation :Ise ratan of eminent learning an 1 ability has lit'iti)n ling since established and we cannot better do justice to his sermon than by saying it was worthy of one haying its author's reputation. In this opinion we find we are sustained by almost every ono who heard it. It is seldom that a sermon on such an accasion fully meets the, expectation of 'the entire audience but on this occasion each one left -the Church feeling that he had listened to a literary production of the high est merit and at the same time a sermon re plete with the noblest teachings Of the Gospel. In the afternoon 'the Bace,daureate Ad dress before the graduating - class of Emory Female U. , ilogo, was delivfired by P D. Elliman. I'.."e had not Ilse pleasure of hewing it for ourselves but from the univer sal expression of satisfaction from those who did hear it and the reputation of the Prof. Hillman we conclude that the pr.fdu-lion was one of much more than ordinary merit. On Sunday evening the sermon before the So. , i,ty of Religious Inluiry, was deliv ered in Emory Chur.ll, by Rev. J. K. Peek. The Rev. gentleman cited, at the commence ment of his serftion the fact thf‘t a graduate or suvora.l years ago had written a letter of withdrawal to the Medi c list Cenference to whleh he belonged, as signing a- h.; re teen therefor, his dissent from tlw docti.in.• of the Trinity. Auditing the gauntlet throWn down by Rev. M. F. Conway—the gentleman re ferred to above, Mr. Peek entered at onee upon an extended and elaborate discussion Of the Unitarian dogma, which had impelled Mr. C. to sever his connection with the church of his earlier adoption. The speaker add maid in favor of his argument—that the Son was cu-equal with the Father and the ti t amorous passages of scripture, ei tablishing his views, as we think, beyond controversy. This was the gist of the dis course, beyon , l which it contained little of merit ur interest. On Il‘inday Evening the "Oratorical Ju nior Prize Contest " cam,: oir. Eleven young gentlemen who have just completed their Ju nior year appeariiil its contestants for the Gold and l3ilver medals awarded as prizes for Oratory. The prize contest of the pres ent year in our opinion compares very fa vorably with thkiso of the three or four last preceding years, and was altogether a very creditable display of •Oratorical ability. In compliance with our usual custom we will notice the efforts of the gentlemen, briefly in detail. Seff Dependenon, by D. B, Herman, Cum berland Valley, Pa. This gentleman evin ced considerable ability in his manner of treating his subject. he appeared to have correct ideas concerning the importance of self dependence, and the expression of his thoughts was clear and logicaL His enun ciation was distinct and his delivery and manner forcible and impressive and he made a favorable impression on the audience. Partizanship, by A. Sharp, Smyrna, Del aware. Mr. Sharp very ably portrayed the advantages arising from theoxistence of parA tics in the nation and the good results that accrue Wow the fearless discussion an' scrutiny of political measives which is,a, nee essnry incident,to their existence. His speech evinced considerable thought and gave as;i swam° of bis ability thoroughly to comp& bend his subject and to express his opinionl,. • in a clear and forcible manner. ,"( _ .Nobitity-of-Labor,---brOlmrlo - I,Nid;Pran. dywine Manor, Pa. 'Phis gentleman selected. a .subject which attiracted at its announce ment the attention of thpiudience..which he succeeded in retaining by the "delivery of a very well considered and well written speech. Ho appeared* to appreciate the sentiment of his subject and the' expressions of his admi ration for the worth and nobility of those who perform the labors of Earth, were couch ed in beautiful and Appropriate language. Withopt,di t sparagernent of the other orators, wo have little hesitancy in saying that in literary merit his speech was superior to that of any of tho others. IYoSay this too, more willingly because* think tho orator mani fested an embarrasment while speaking which somewhat detraoted kora the merits of hii speech.
