The Fall Of Port Hudson. The' Hew Orleans Era of the 11th inst. says : On Wednesday, the Bch, at 2 p. m., Gen. Gardner, the Rebel Com mander of Port Hudson, surrendered un conditionally to Maj.-Gen. Banks. The Rebel army was drawn up in line, stacked arms, and Gen. B anks took possession of the place. :Five thousand prisoners,so pieces of artillery, and all small arms,e., have fallen into our hands. A dispatch to The Era, dated on the morning of the Bth, from Port Hudson, - lays : "At 2 o'clock a parley was sounded from the/ fort, and being replied to, in quiry was made about the news from Vicksbu'rg. On being assured that it had fallen, Gen. Gardner promised to sur :ender today. We entered the place at noon. The glorious..event has filled. our army with tho wildese- enthusiasm." . A sub+quent account states that Gardner sent a flag of truce on the Bth, aSkinm for; terms, and Gem Banks re sponded "unconditional surreucier" with twenty-faut'lbours to consider. At 7 a.m. on the 9th, Gardner unconditonally sur 'rendered. I The moment the surrender was completed the Rebels sant a reqbest for 6,000 rations as the garrison had eaten its last mule. Th s was found to be lit erally true, they had devoured theii last wule. The news was brought ; to ievr Orleans by the flag-ship Tennessee: One hun dred guns were immediately fired by Gen.l Emury. The loyal citizens of New Or leans were to base a torchlight proces .sion, illumination, and a general joyful; jubilation on the night the steamer sailed.' The Secessionists in that city are repre .l3ented as rather gloomy in-countenauee. A!.talcii. on Helena. CAIRO, July 7.—About 15,000 rebels, under Holmes, Price, and Marwaduke, made an attack on Helena on the morn ing of the'4th of July. They advanced in three columns, but the roughness of the ground- was such as to prevent the rebels from bringing up artillery. They attempted to carry the works by assault. The center column charged in the direc tion of Fort Curtis, and took three lines of riffe.pits. The flank attack was not so successful, which subjected the. centre to -an enfilading fire which swept them down in great numbers. • ,They were soon sur-J rounded, sod one whole:brigade, or what: was left of it, numbering 940, fell into) -our hands, 740 of whom arrived here this morning. Among them are Col. Lewis, I of the 7th Missouri, Col. Johnson and; Col. Bell. Gen. Prentisd was aware of the con- 1 templated attack, and was:prepared. He -bad about 4,000 men, and was assisted, by the gunboat Tyler. The battle cow-! menced at 4 o'clock, A and continued till 10 A. We captured 1,000 pris .oners, 1,200 stand of arms, and two col ors. The enemy's loss was very severe; not less than 2,500 in killed., wounded{ and prisoners. Our total loss will not{ exceed 250. Gen. Prentiss is cOnfidenC that he can repel any assault that the rebels may attempt. An Important Order. . WAR DEPARTMENT, PROVOST MARSIIAL'S OFFICE, July 12th, 1863.

JAMES B. FRY, Provost - Marshal General. Thie,"Peace” Men As we anticipated, last week, the cop- perheads are raising the cry that now since Graso and Meade are victorious the GoY• ernment should offer terms to thelebels. What terms cah the Govqrnment offer except upcmiditional submission 7 The rebels know that they can have peace on those terms at any moment. They could have had it long' before the battle of Get. tysburg tr the surrender of Vicksburg. It is not for the Government at Wash. ington to sue for peace, now when every thing seems to indicate thrt peace will ec•ue through the utter extinction of the rebellion. But the leaders of the rebel lion at Richmond may offer to submit, and the President will be only too happy to order a cessation of hostilities. Let the Peace men make their appeals to their friend Jefferson Davis. lie began the war, and he cull' end it without fur• they bloodshed, if he chooses. THE JOURNAL. Coudersport, Wednesday, July 22,1863. !, M. W. McALARNEY, Eorron 11W-The last game of the Rebels ap pears to have been one of "brag," and they are playing it in the most reckless manner. Their papers assert thaf Lee defeated the Army of the Potdm — ac at Gettysburg, and is pursuing it towards Baltimore, and that lie has taken forty thO - nsand prisoners. They also say that Grant has bee,* driven from Vicksburg, and Banks from Port fludson,•and that their armies 'have been destroyed. Other 'successes of less consequence are reported add the people are led to believe that the independence of the "Southern Confed• eracy" will soon be acknowledged by the National authorities at Washington! Ex. In March and April last, Knights of the Golden Circle in Berks county told their dupes that the Rebels would invade Pennsylvania about Harvest time, and_by paying a dollar and joining. the Circle they would not be harmed. The fact that they did come as predicted, goes to show that it was all understood between the Copperheads and Rebels, and their State Convention said not a word against it, but diseouragedi volunteers froni coming to drive out. the Rebels. No thanks to that CoaventioQ4--but the Unionists enlisted, repairing to the forts at Harrisburg, and the' fords below; Columbia Bridge was burned ; the Army of the Potomac hur• ried on the flank ofithe Rebels. .all of which saved Lancaster, .Berks, Schuyl kill and perhaps Philadelphia from ray• age by the hungry Secesh crew.—Ex. Z27Gen.; Couch was , serenaded, in Obambersburg, and made, a short address 110 said "The'humiliation of the invasion was bitter, but it might have , been only a fit ting punishment for the existence among us of the domestic traitors who piloted the armed Rebels to their plunder, and were repaid with their scorn and con tempt. • "He congratulated the, people. The darkness seemed past, and we see the promise of the dawn of peace—not such a peace as Wood and Vallandigham would beg on bended knees from- Jeff Davis— but such a peace as Rosencrans was mak ing with Bragg, as Grant had won at Vicksburg, ttrid as the grand historic Ar my of the Potomac had 'gained at Get tysburg. "The Republic, thus crowned with vic tory, under the auspices of I.dberty,might. if her sons were worthy, lead the nations to the heights of a better civilization and call down upon her the . very benediction of Heaven.'' The speech was modest, pertinent, and received with tremendous applause. • A DIFFERENCE —Mr. Coffroth, mem ber of Congreis from the Adams district was in Harrisburg a few days siiacc com plaining ()lithe "outrages": of Union sol diers, and demanding pay for butter-milk and sausages taken without pay, from his copperhead constituents At the same time llon.lJohn M. Bromall of the Ches ter and Delaware district, was at the head of a company of Militia for the de fense of Adams and other border counties: There's the difference,between loyal and disloyal. The "Bunkers" of Pennsylvania at their recent annual assembly at Morri son's Grove, referred the subject of con scription to a committee which reported in favor of 'sustainingthe government and obeyiiig the laws, notwithstanding the non-resistant principles of the denom ination. '4 resolution was made, recom mended and adopted, that every member drafted shall pay his commutation, and if he is net able the expenses shall be assessed on the members of the congre gation. Nine months ago, in his speech to the Mississippi Legislature, Jeff Daves de clared that "the Conjederacg must stand or fall by the defence of the river." It has not been able to defend the river— therefore, ;it falls. LATEST A. dispatch from Cleveland, dated Mon day, states that Morgan made an unsuc. cessful 'attempt to cross the Ohio River on Sunday, near Coolevville, but was pre- vented by a gunboat. One hundred and ' fifty rebels were killed and drowned. A thousand prisoners were captured, with their artillery. Among the prisoners are Col. Ward and Col. Dick Morgan, a brother of John. The band was scattered among the hills Gen. Judah is confi dent of capturing the balance of the party. By way of Memphis we learn that Bragg is retreating as fast as possible into Geor gia. sharply pursued by Rosencrang, whose advance has reached Rome. A dispatch from flaFerstown says that ."the rear guard of Lee's army left Mar tinsburg at 2 o'clock on Saturday morn ing, a fliv cavalry men picketing:the other sidcl of the Potomac. Our whole force is across the river. The Potomac is falling rapidly. Gen. Lee is retreating his main force by Strasburg and Staun. ton, not by Culpepper." • Jeff DaFis has issued a call for erery man between the agcis of 18 and 45. xs,:rlie Rebel Riot in New York city after doing a great deal of damage to property„ and a large number of lives being lost, bas bun subdued. T6'bat a Rebel Pelsoner Says. We Lad a conversation, a few days since, with a rebel prisoner. He vas a degree above the ordinary caste of "poor white trash" of which the rebel army is composed, and spoke with considerable intelligence of the expectations and de signs of the rebel leaders. He declared that the rebels were wofully disappointed with two things on their arrival in Penn sylvania. First, they had been ted to believe that a class of men existed in Pennsylvania, who would afford them great aid and comfort as they penetrated the Stale. They had received this aid in the shape . of -t s ise sympathies of a few cringing copperheads, whose professions were alike repulsive to the men in the rebel ranks, and dangerous to the rebel government, as a contact • with towards affects any cause more or less. The reb el in question was very bitter on the cop, perheads. He declared that if he had the power, he would stipulate with the federal government "that all free niggers in the hands of the confederacy should be ransomed by an exchange of a copper. head tir every nigger, whereby the mean sneaks would get a taste of work in the j field under the lash of the slave driver.", The second disappointment which affecttd the rebels at Gettysburg, was the man: nor in which our , troops fought. Here after all talk of the inferiority of the northern man in battle is at an end. "The man who Makes such an assertion in the south, in the presence of those who es caped the fight at Gettyeburg, will be de nounced as a liar," quoth the rebel with much emphasis. Thus it ,will be seen that something more than a sanguinary victory has been gained. The moral ef: fects of the battle of Gettysburg are thus soon beginning to be soon and felt.- —liar ristur3 Telegraph. The Artillery service in the-battle o Gettybburg is reported to have been the I most effective, in point of precision and I destruction iof any of the entire war. On the 3d of July, the cannonading was aw ful. It was the most terrible artillery fight on record. The attack was on the centre and left, with harrassing incur- Isions and shell throwing on the enemy's Iflank by our cavaiy. The fifth corps, 'occupying the position it did the day be- Ifor'e, escaped this fight;: excepting the artillery, all of which was engaged. The invasion of Pennsylvania not only afford ed our artillerymen a splendid opportu nity to prove their superiority, but it gave onr cavalry also the chance of estab lishing their efficiency over that of the same arm in the rebel service. In these two branches of the rebel army great pains has been taken to secure perfection. Lee boasted of the power of his artillery and the splendor of his. cavalry. The bouth depended on both artillery and cay. airy for their first great victory, and as they have been defeated in a fair fight, it forever establishes the superiority of the saute service as developed by the men of the . free States. THE SENTIMENTS OF A TRAITOR.- While the rebels were in possession. of Carlisle they used the office of the Amer i an Denvcrat to print their- "orders," "blanks," &c. Before they evacuated the office, Capt. J G Gorman, Co. C, 2d N. C. Trop, "set . up" and left in his •stick" the following as expressive of his sentiments : "I am in for the war, or 'till . death ;' am in favor of peace, only on the eternal principle of separation; would rather see the Land of Dixie a boundless desert, its [lisle citizens rotting on battle fields, its mothers and daughters perishing• with hunger and Its children outcasts and beg. gars iu a strange land, tl.an accept a peace on any other terms. I would as soon fraternize with the dawned of hell, wi the eantiiig hypocrites of the North, and had I Ownipotent power would build a gulf of tire as boundless us immensity bei ween the two nations that are now ar rayed in arms against each other.' - Such' a manifestation in ..type" must have been cheering for the copperheadis of the Democrat proprietors. It is worthy of remark, that while almost every field of strife is reddened with the blood of some distinguished general, — commencing with Lyon, at Springfield, down to the death of Gen. Berry, at Chancellorsville, and 2daj Gen. Reynolds at Gettysburg, we have lost no great naval commander,until the death of Rear Admiral Foote, and even he died of disease and not by the hand of the enemy. Death has strangely spared them. Dupont, Parragut. Strinchain, the two - Porters, Worden, and others who fought our first naval battles, are still among us, a terror to the foes of the Union.. The meanest thing the rebel pirates have yet done, is the wholesale. destruc tion by the Tacony, of New England fish'. iog smacks off Martha's Vineyard. stated by old whale-men that the destruc tion of whale ships by the Alabama and Florida was the first instance known of ill treatment of whalers by pirates. , These vessels, traversing every sea of the globe, and frequently falling in with the pirates of the Southern Ocean, the most trucu lent and merciless of their race, are ever suffered to pass unharmed, it being con- I sidered unworthy even a Moluccan Cor sair to injure such craft It has remained for rebel buccaneers "to develop a malig nity and : insatiated cruelty which does not hesitate even to deprive the poor fishers and whalemen of their humble yet hardly won treasures. It is stated that I'o.ooo men in the rebel artily arc substitutes. EDUCATIONAL. • BROOR.LAND, PA., July, ED. JOURNAL: It seems to me your paper ought to have a column devoted to education to be filled with original and selected articles upon educational subjects I imagine that it you was asked to so fill a column, you would say : "Get your teatehers, directors and others interested in 'educational matters to furnish the ar tidies, and I will print them." If thiste your answer, I ask the teach era and others who have, or ought to have the cause of education at heart : Will you furnish the material for an "Educational column ?"

We have a report by way of Philadel phia—which seems to be the chosen abode of the Goddess of Rumor—that Charleston was captured on the 14th in. stant ; another version being that Beau regard eveauated and burnt it. Without placing any reliance on either statement, we may still say ihat we regard. the speedy Fuccess of the forces now besieging Fort Sumter as more than probable, and :it need be no cause for wonder if that stronghold of treason should already have fallen: Gen. Gilmore 'attacked and took the Rebel works. on the south end of Morris Island on the 10th instant. An assault'the nett morning on Fort Wag ner was repulsed, but there was no reason to suppose that fort able to resist for any, length of time the land and naval forceS which, Gen. Gillthore and Admiral Dahl grenare able to direCt against it. When' 1 it falls, batteries may be immediately established within short range of Fort Sumter, and against such guns as are are ready 'to be mounted—much heavier than those whiCh reduced Pulaski—it is impossible the fort should long hold ont And although there are othei defences to the city, there are other defences to the city, there are so few troops to man them, and the Rebel armies are so seriously dis heartenfd by their recent reverses, that the contest is likely to be obstinate. We confidently anticipate the early surrender of the city —Tribune. An exchange paper says that a young woman. whose betrothed loyei is in the army, went almost into convulsions at his perfidy, on hearing of his hafting an cligagenz(int in Mississippi: Sensitive girl. It is computed that the country has lost by death from disease or in battle not less than 37 ~ ,, e nera.ls since the reb'ellion broke out.
