He came op to Colonel Wister in the thickest of the fight, shook bauds with him and said ho came tn help.

The fall of Vicksbnrg lias occasioned great nlnrm throughout Mississippi and Alabama, and the rebels seem altogether at fault as to what they shall do to protect themselves from the consequences which they regard as certain to follow. Major General D. II. Maury, com iiiiiiiding nt Mobile, issued a proclamation to the cititens ol I lint place July 8th, warning them that tho calamity nt Vicksbnrg had a pe culiar significance for them ; that Mobile might bo attacked in a short time, that the troops must be immediately armed for protection, aud that able bodied slaves must be set to work on the defenses Immediately. This arming of slaves by tho rebels will, of coarse, give a ter rible shock to our nervous Conservatives, but tho enemy seem to have very little regard for the feelings of people of this class.

New York Papers on tub Biot. The Times of July 20th, snys of tho lata riot t There can be no doubt that the late riots in this city have been due in a very targe degree to the intrigues and machinations of traitors and rebels in the North. Whether their mo- -live has been sympathy with the South or part isan hatred of the Administration, the result hi the same; they have been stimulating a bloody civil oommotion iu the North for the purposo of aiding the rebellion In the Sonth, and hostility tn the draft has been the mum lover which they have employod. . A draft for military service must always be obnoxious in any ooiffilry, although do one can doubt that, properly managed, it is the most eqnitablo mode nf securing that service whioh is absolutely iniiispensamo 10 every nation, r or our gov ernment now to abandon or suspend the draft,' in consequence of tho violent hostility It baa encountered, would bo simnlo abdication of Ita most essential functions. It would bo a sur render nf ull authority a complete abandon ment uf tho right which every Governmeut haa In the services of its tititens. We are glad the Government at Washington does not for moment entertain the thought of each a ttep. The laws of the nation must be enforced. Tho druft must go 011, aud the official authority must be supported by adequate military furoa in .parrying it nut. As nn offset tn the foregoing, we quote tho following from tho Herald t It is a very noticeable feature of the courso of the niggorhead papers that they lose no op portunity to give aid and comfort to the rebels. Fhis fact wns amply illustrated last week, when the Tribune, Times, and Post, vied with each other in representing the outbreak in this city , as the result nf a rebel plan for raising a revo lution in the North in favor of Jeff. Davis. If these abolition assertions were true, what greater encouragement could Jeff. Davis de sire ! Overwhelmed as the rebel leaders most have been by their succession of signal defeats, what other news could have brought them such comfort and consolation as the intelligence of an immense popular uprising at the North In behalf of their Confederacy? This la un doubted1)' what tho Abolitionists Intend. They . know that the rebels are beaten. ' They know that unless something is.douu to proluug tlie war the L'niou will be restored before their con spiracy to nbolitiooiie every acceded State can le accomplished. They know that la prolong the war it is nooessary to iuspirit Jeff. Davis and neakvu our armies. . , "Another Step." Wendell Phillip and a negro named Itemond, delivered orations on the 4th of July, at Framingham, Ct. The fol lowing is a quotation from l'hillips' aUress: " He was about tn say aouiethitir which would make the New York Herald display ita large capitals and notes of exclamation: Amalgnalioni Nnw, remember this, that on the 4th day nf July, 1803, yon heard me say that iu the light of all history and every age, 1 am an umtifguninftonist t'a its fullest ex tent 1 Limine haa nn past except in this oi- , vine method for the civilisation of the world."
