Thk Nkwj.- Wo havo no exciting news
Vi record sincu our last ismio up to the pres
ent writing (Friday evening). A large
ulcamcr, while trying to run the blockade
olF Charleston, wiw run athote mid lcr own
crew forced to burn Iicr. TI10 rebel, Iicfoie
evacuating Juclcon, fired the city, and our
I'orccH disappointed tlicm by flushing the
job, Sherman has returned from the. pur
unit of Jo!inon to Vlelclmrg. JuliiiFon I?
Mld.to bo twenty mi les from Jnctoon with
iin army of 30.000 men. I'cnibcrlon had
gonu to nicliinond. but his army of paroled
prisotjera hud scattered in every direction.
Without doubt, many of thoo prisoner?,
who have become calloiiH to honor and rcck
l"'M of their pergonal safety. Iiavo gono to
hwell Jolinnn'fl army. Uy the laws of war,
If they are caught again with mini in their
liamh bul'oro being exchanged, their lives
tiro forfeit. At Richmond, all male Jews
mid Gentiles am being forced into the reb
el ranks probably Including negroes.
On. Sprtnclc. of the Potomac, had a spir
ited cngauetnent witli about 11,000 rebels,
driving them from ami retaining their po-t-IUoii,
an 1 indicting a eompartively heavy
Join. Rebel papers with Charleston dates
to thi) 2."tli, say tlio Vaulcecs havo two bat
teries 011 Morris Inland, and havo strength
mid their position. The dual reduction of
thu forts and the occupation of Charleston
by the .Federals is inevitable. If the incen
diary spirit of thu CharlestoniaiiH incite them
to follow thu lead ol'tlio rebels at Jackson,
by burning the city, it will bo but little re
gretted by tho gallant besiegers. That city
needs to be purged of t reason with flro and
word.
" Tm: Oiikcion Statimman." Wq have
frequently been aMccd during tho past few
mouths as to thu political complexion of Die
SWrnmn wholher It was Union or Copper-
)i"ad. It is dlllicult to decide. It U either,
both, or neither. One article will bo unex
cuplionully Union, anolliur unmlMakably
Coppcarhcad. The Coppcthcad decidedly
predominate In tho number of tho 27th
ult. it is pleased at what it terms thu
"liHrmoulflus nominations of tho California
Democratic Slato Ticket" a ticket upon
which are tho names of tho most notorious
Oopperjietids and Secessionists, on tho Pad
lio Coast. It depreciates tho use of oppro
bious epithets, and at tho fnino tlmo in
dulgcH wry freely in the mo of them. It
proposes to sustain tho Government, but is
opposed to thu Administration. It evident
ly tries to create- thu impression that Pres
ident, .Lincoln is an Inmost mid patriotic
'imbecile," and that (ho administration of
tho Government i directed by Greely, Gar
rison. Conway, Fred. Douglas, unci other
nogrophobists. It appears dehlrous of sell
ing out to tho party that will pay tho high
est price, but is unsuccessful In procuring
bids. I)y tho manifestation of this disposi
tion, it has lost tho conlldcnco of honest
men of tho Union party, and its knowledge
of this fact makes it earnest in its desire to
nreato a division in thu party, and still re
t'tin tho budge of loyalty. It desires tho
success of the Copperhead ticket of Califor
nia, and it should, therefore, bo rather class
ed ogainit than for tho Union cause.

T Vault thinks tho timolsnot propitious
for tho agitation of tho question of tho for
million of a Pacific Republic-. The discuslon
of tho mhject has been indefinitely post
poned, owing to tho arblttary arrests and
unconstitutional killing, by tho " Abolition,
negro Unionists," at Guttysbug, of many

Seymour of New York.
Seymour, Governor of New York, made
a speech before a Democratic Association,
in tho city or Now"ork, on the 4th of July
just rant. 'Tho spoccbls of thu rovoluliomw
rj , Copperhead order, and Is biitanotierovl
denco that IU anchor Is u dangerous
polltltlcal demagogue, who would nut tern-'
plo to bring about a conlliot between thu
Federal and State authorities, if ho could
thereby enhance his own power and fame,
In calling attention to tho speech, tho Tones
said :
' With a rebel army pushing to tho very
hem t of the Northern tfta e -in thu very
climax of a war which threatens utter and
llnal ruin to tho great republic whose birlli
d.y ho was aiding to celebrate, Governor
.Seymour could Had no more timely or in
inspiring a topic limn thu degeneracy of
our peoplu and tyranny of tho Government
which is trying to safe tho life of thu na
tion. Not a word of condemnation for the
rebels in arms not a sylablo of hopo or
oiieinirigemeut for thos.o who aro lighting
against ilium not an elfort to roiio lliu
patriotic fervor and courage of tho thous
ands who heard him. His only complaints
weui against thu Government, his only
grievances were personal and political, and
his only appeals wero lo this parly preju
dices and resell (men Is, that ought to bu bu
ried loicvcr until tho country Is delivered
I10111 the peril that overhangs it.
Thu Sacramento Union, of the 23lli, ult.,
publishes thu speech, and in its closing
comments, says :
The speech of Governor Seymour was
delivered some, ten days before iui was call
ed upon in his oMcinl capacity to suppress
a riot in the city. In the discharge1 of that
duty he was compelled from necessity to
order the rioteis to bu shot dewn in the
streets. It is even possible that some tit
thu nii'ii lie was niMiwsinjr wero snot us
rioter by his order. As Governor ho was
compelled to protect thu lives anil proper
ty of citizens, though us a political dema
gogue hu considered himelf fiee in a pub
lic address to encourage mob violence. In
Ids speech to the Democratic Club he said :
" Remember litis, that I lie bloody and
trensonabte nnd revolutionary dnctnno of
public necessity can bo ptnclaimed by a
mob us well as by n Government." Jlis
hearers and readers in New York took
iiini at his wind. They proclaimed it to
be n public necessity to them to resist the
Conscript Act and they organ V.cil a mob
for Unit purpose. They piccntcd to Gov.
Seymour an illustration of Ills own doc
trine, of public necessity, nnd they, under
his teaching, made it bloody and revolu
tionary. Tho Government has never yel
sited blond in making what .Seymour calls
arbitrary arrests on tho ground of public
necessity. Hut public necessity with Sey
mour's friends in New York "wuh inter
preted to mean the taking of tho lives of
theolliccrs of tho law and tho destruction
of such property n camo in their way.
But public necessity forced him to order
that rioters who worn violently trampling
upon the law should bo shot, and by this
Older lie overturned tho positions of his
speech and answered completely all tho
sophistry it contains. Safely for the pen
pie of thu United States wiil bo found in
rejecting thu doctrines advanced anil lite
mivicu given by such party Ooppeihend
leaders us Governor heymonr.
IIonoii to thk IIkho. Tho Atlantic- pa
pers aro unanimous in their cnconlums of
General Meade, tho successful commander
of tho Armvof tho Potomac. Hero is what
tho New York Tribune says ol him :
It is impossible to praisu too highly the
splendid capacity which General Meade has
exhibited. Tho best evidence of it is in
tho euthiisiasMc confidence with which ho
has inspired Ids army. Never was (hat
army called upon to endure such desperate
twaiiltH as in thcfu tremendous engagements.
Thu rebel Generals, aware that thu fortune
of their pirate Confederacy wero slaked in
tho Issue, hurled their columns 011 tho Nu
llonal Hues with a mad impetuosity which
it Hccmcd as il nothing could withstand.
Hard pressed our bravo men olteu were, but
IheyUlitvedin their General and never wavered,
tio. completely had General Meado won
their devoted fallli, so admirablu handled
his troops in liio lht day's light, so prompt
ly sent reinforcements to thu points of
greatest peril, that thu oflicors on Friday,
all over the field, when lb" shock eamu
heaviest, cheered and steadied their men
with thu cry : " Remember tho General,
meu; you know he'll havo Iho supports hero
in tl.ne." And so tioio gallant troops held
fast their ground, and tho supports never
onco tailed. No lino broke, havu onco for a
moment, and nowhere did tho rebels break
their immovable array. And above all
things, us tho test and crowning evidenco of
General Meade's soldiership, ho put every
man ho had Into tho fight. In other words,
ho know what to do with his troops; proved
himself ablo to handle in bnttlo a hundred
thousand men. Not a brlgado In tho army,
mivh our correspondent, that has not fought,
miil fmiulit two or three- times over in theso
battles. Troops wero moved with a facility
and precision that was miraculous, wnn u
victorious result that only was not miracu
lous, because it was the logical outcomu of
to muoli genius and courugo. Tho
Auny of tho Potomac; tho child and champ
ion of tho Loval North, has at last found
the iviiid to victory. It lias opened that I
road with Its cannon. Lot none doubt that '
it will advance firmly and Mviftly then on -
to tho final overthrow of rebellion and ,

edly there aro now thousands in the South
who bitterly regret their heedlessness of
tho prophet ic .warning given to them by.
Alexander If. Stephen,, In the Secession
Convention of Gem-gin, lie lliua.bid them
bewnro of the dire resulU of Secession :
That this step, onco taken, could never
be recalled ; and all (lie baleful and with
ering eonsiqiienecs that must follow (us
Ihev would sec) will rest on the Conven
tion lor nil coming lime. When wo ami
our posterity shall see our lovely South
desolated by the demon of war which this
net of yours will inevitable invite and call
forth when our gteeu Ileitis of waving har
vest shall bu trodden down by the mur
derous soldiery and (iery car of war sweep
ing over our land ; our temples of juslieu
laid in nsiies ; till the horrots aiidilcsulalioii
of war upon us, who but this Convention
will bu held responsible for it ? nnd who
but him who shall have given his vole for
t liis unwise and ill-timed measure (as 1
honestly think and believe), shall bu held
lo slrict account for this stiiuidaJ act by
the present generation, and probably curccd
niid cxecrntcd by posterity for all coming
time, for tho wii'to and desolating mill Unit
will inevitably follow this nut you now
propose lo perpetrate?
Pause, I entreat you. and consider for n
moment what reasons you can givu that
u ill even satisfy yourselves in calmer mo
ments what icasons you can givu to your
fellow sufferers in the calamity that il will
tiring upon us? What reasons can you
give to the nations of the earth to jm:ily
it? They will be the calm nnd deliber

What right lias the North assailed ? What
interest of the South lms been invaded ?
What iustico has been dented? and what
claim founded in justicu and light has
been withheld? Can either of you today
name one governmental act of wrong, de
liberately and purposely done by the Gov
ernment of Washington, ol which the
South has n right to complain? I chal
lenge the answer! Wliile 011 the oilier hand
let me show thu facts (and believe me, gen
tlemen, I mi not here the advocate ol the
North ; but 1 11111 here the fiieud. the firm
friend and lover of Iho South nnd her in
stitutions, nnd lor this reason I speak thus
plainly 11 tul faitlilully for yours, mine, mid
every other man's interest, thu words ol
truth and soberness), und of which I wish
you to judge, nnd I will only slute facts
which aro clear and undeniable, nnd which
now stand us records uulhentie in tho his
tory of our country.
When we of the South demanded the
slave trade, or the importation of Africans
for lliu cultivation of our lands, did they
not yie'd this right for twenty years? When
we asked a thrco-fifllis representation in
Congress for ournlavcs,wasit not granted ?
When we asked and demanded the return of
any fugitive from justice, or the recovery
ot'those persons owing labor or allegiance,
was it not incorporated in the Constitu
tion, and again ratilied mid strengthened
ill the Fugitive Slave Law of 1850?
Rut do you reply that many instances
they have violated tho compact, and have
not been faithful to their engagements? As
individuals and local communities they m.i.v
have done, so, but not by the sanction of
Government, for Unit lias alwhys been true
to Southern interests. Again griiileiivn,
look nt another fact ; when wo asked that
moie territory should bo added, that we
might spread the Institution of slavery,
have they not vielded to our demands in
giving us Louisauii, Florida and Texas,
out of which four Slates have been carved,
urn! ample teiritory for four more to be
added in duo time, if you, by this unwise
unit impolitic net do not distroy litis hope,
and, peiluip', by it lose all, and havu your
Inst slave wi cached. from you Inj item mill'
tixrij rule, as was the case in Sonili Amer
ica and Mexico : or by tho vindictive do
creo of a universal enmneipalian which may
reasonably be expected to follow.
Toiiacco. R. S. Rellknap, Ksq., living
near Slato Creek, Josephine county, has
sent us a specimen U'uf of tobacco, raised
on his farm. Tho leaf is pronounced by
competent judges to bo very largo, and of
lino fiber and excellent quality. Wo havo
not been informed as to tho extent of Mr.
Uellknap's crop, but hopo it may bo large.
Wo hear of farmers In our own county who
aro raising experimental crops of tobacco,
and wo would bo pleased to publish the re
sults of their labors, and their experience
in its cultivation. Many persons who
planted tobacco seed lust spring, complain
that it failed to germinate, and from this
cuus.0 alone tho cultivation of the plant is
not general among our farmers this ycar.
