Con cay, (Abolitionist member of Congress in the enemy’s country,) his opinion that the war should bo relinquished, and the Union along with it, seeing that it was a war for Union alone, and not for “human freedom." Mr. Conway, for bis part, and on the part of the extreme Abolitionists, sees no good in the Union if slavery is to be preserved. Accor dingly, be writes a letter to the Now York “Tribune,” from whioh we extract these in structive passages: The war for the Aitcre, therefore, becomes simply an instrument in the hands of political managers to effect results favorsbls to their own personal ends, and unfavorable to the' os use of freedom. Wh*t matters it that a few regiments of ne groes, more or loss, under white offioere, are suet into the field ! What matters it that the President's edict of Emancipation is printed in Little and Brown’s eiition of the United States Statutes at large T Is Riohmond ours? or even Vicksburg ? Does not the Confedera cy atill stand Arm and defiant, and does it not promise to stand so in the futnre T - And above all, u not the Presidential election ap proaching ? It is now assumed that the Union is so ob ject paramount ovsr all other considerations, and we are told that it must never be relin quished.' We are asked to adhere to the war, not because it gives us successful schievments in the field, but for the' reason simply that otherwise we give up the Union. We are told also that the institution of slavery, like ail. other institution* (vide N. Y. “Times” of to day,) is of minor importance, ono way or the other, compared with tbe Union; that it must give wey or not give way ; be destroyed, or granted a new learn of life, with increased power, just as the exigencies- of tbe Union msy require. And to this doctrine that life long abolitionist, Gerrit Smith, and that zeal ous Republican, Mr. Raymond, and that emi nent Democrat, Ur. VanBuren, all alike as sent. Since the deportation of Vsllandigham, it is supposed that this is to. be the mongrel Democratic platform for tbe next Presidential SOUTHERN CON FEDERACY ATLANTA, GEORGIA: FRIDAY EVENING, JUNE 12, 1863, Now, Mr. Editor, I desire thus publicly, an I from tbe beginning, to announoa my em phatic wish to ba counted out of any such ar rangement. I went into this Anti Slavery ba*in<sa earnestly, and on fie presumption that I was acting with honest men—men who hated slavery, and were determined to cast it out, oome what might. I And that as to ma ny I have been deceived. I And that these men want power, and otra for nothing else; and that for the sake of power they would kill all the while people of the South, eir take them to their arms; that they would free all the slaves, or make their bondage eiiil more hope less ; or do any other inconsistent and wicked thing. I have no sympathy whatever with such an unhallowed lust of dominioj. As to the Union, I would not give aoent for it unless it stood as a guarantee for freedsm to every man, woman or child, within its ju risdiction. 1 consider the idea that every thing most be eacriAoed to the Uolon, utterly prepoatoroua- What was the Uaionmake fer -That we should sscriflce ourselves to it! I, for ora. woeld beg to be oxoetoA At things stand 1 would sacrifice «he Colon to freedom^ any morning befere HSJSWSy. Washington, May teth, ISO. The Tribune, commenting npoo this, observes that Conway tails to perceive that tbe success of the war for tha ‘•Union” is, la eflbct, a war against slavery- no matMr what pretexts and pretenses may he ased la its progress henaase its success |most necessarily destroy thst institution. Soys tbe Tribune: Tbs war lav the Union is kilUag slavery—mart kill it; foritcsnsoeeoeX in no other way.

The following is reliable in reference to Ma jor Mosby’s latest exploit. ■ Oa Sunday last, he capture! and effmtually destroyed a train on the O & A It R., eon aisting of an engine and twelve oars, heavily laden with commissary stores Oa retiring, he encountered fire regiments of the ecemy’i cavalry iu a narrow lace in a column of fours, which ho repulsed with groat slaughter, using canister from his mountain howitzer at eighty yards, and charging with his cavalry. He es - timates the enemy’s loss at one hundred killed -and a large number wounded; his loss three missing, ons supposed to bo mortally wounded. Still retiring, his rear guard taking the wrong road at a fork the enemy charged him and succeeded in capturing the gun, after the last round of ammunition had been fired, he car rying off the limber, the enemy pursuing n farther. The enemy at Gealtou, hearing this firing 'their rear, burned their commissary stores and other supplies, broke up their cautp, aenJin their baggage and dismounted men toward Falm.Hiih, and hurried with their available lo'ce in the direction of the tiring The foregoing comes to as from a source that makes it virtually “official.”—Richmond Sentis. ml Jane Cth. . yy A lady named Day, in Illinois, has given birth to triplets, upon three occasions.— Verily, there is no telling what aZ>jy may bring forth! State Rights—Tite Ksd of trie War. Tbe war which the Yankees are now making on ns is laoner disregard of all Stale right* and without the •lightest wsiyaot in th* Constitution of tha United Stales. If the doctrine of State Bights, which is older than the Union sad plainly recognised in tbe Constitu tion. hid bees regarded ly the fanatic* «f the North, who are now ia power, there would have been no war on account of seceenon. If this doctrine, which was the very piller npon which the whole federal fabric was erected, had been sacredly respected by those who made war oa it for over thirty yean, there never would have baon say secession or even any dissatisfaction on the part of the States *The Constitution clearly de- Coe* tbe right* of the Slates, yielding equal and exact justice to all; and if there had not been continual ef forts, to the part of the State, of one whole section, to infringe npon and cartall the righto of tbe States and people of another section, the bickerings which Uave existed lor more than thirty year*, finally culmi nating in disruption, followed by an unholy and an on thorixed war, would never hove been beard of. The Conrtitutioo was nothing more than a compact, ao agreement between sovereign and lndepedent State* to set together for oertsin purposes. The people of a Whom section constitntlaf a majority of the States, re peatedly di.regarded and encroachrd upon the rights of tbs Stales and the psopteof the other sect’on; con- HequentfjCthey rescinded (and repadiated the compact- They formally and in their sovereign capacity with drew from and annulled the agreement they bad enter cd into; they receded. This they hod tbe same right to do—thst they had' lo enter into the compact. It was one they went into of tbeirowo accord, and wbicb they bad the same right to abrogate, of their own ac cord, and to leave, unmolested. But tt is not surprising that those who would, while w« were in the Union, for tbe take of ungodly gain, de liberately infringe upon our rights, would alto from the tame ungodly spirit of covetousness and a desire to plunder os, make war on ns withoot authority In law or proy.-cationin fact, to force ns again within their svan- ciooa grasp. This la at ons glance the came and the nature of the whole contest. It was brought about by a disregard of ■he rights of States on the port of the North, and we seceded and accepted the consequences in vindication of this time honored and >acred doctrine. It was to prooervs this sacrcJ right—that of Stito sovereignty— that we’repudiated the compact which the North hat often disregarded any trampled upon. Wo esteemed this doctrine dearer to ua than tbe Union; dearer than life iueif. This is the estimation in which tbe people of tbe South held tho rights and independeh-c of tho States. This high estimate is not misplaced; it is our only safely—opr only guaranty of perpetual liberty. When will this war on ns cease r It will be when th* Northern. States and people re tarn to tbe doctrines and views of onr fathers—when they acknowledgers doc trine of Sta’e rights; when they concede to the States tbe rights and prirl'eges guaranteed by IlieUonstlia. tion, and consent to allow them to exercise (heir clear- iy defl ned prerogatives at all times. Whenever the Northern mind shall consent to let us alone, in the exercise' of onr right to leave the Union, then the war will cease That day is con’ng. It may be in the distant future, and It may be much nearer, than we suppess. Already we see some signs of it which are more or less promising. The no ble Vsllandigham has,from the first proclaimed,in and out of Oougreas, that tbero was no authority or warrant In the Constltat’an to make war on sovereign States. Until recently his voice was not heard. It was drown ed in the clanior for war on the rebels; but the dint of rebel steel and courage has tamed the hearts of many to his wise counsels, and opened the ears of many who were previously deaf to hi* warnings. Psblic men, io public addresses, quite a number or th* newspapers the people assembled in public meetings and party State conventions—ah, a'l are speaking out and eon- demniug the war as unjust and without warrant in th* ComtituUon, as well at most wantonly nowise and cruel. The most notable of these la the ltie Peace Con vention in New York, which was attended by 30,900 persons from all parts of the State. It declared that the people owed fealty to the Constitution and to tbe State; that there is no power to coerce a State by military force; and thatjtbe war is contra y to the Constitution and should cebae. Occasionally men.are imprisoned or exiled; or newspaper* suppressed, but these are only fuel to the flame.. It will increase. The boll will poll on till those wbo have made war on the rights and sovragnty at States are overwhelmed. How long it will be belora this is accomplished no one can now predict; bat it is th* nndea*—the germ that Is to end the. war. It was a disregard of State rights thst forced the South imo secc.a'on; a trampling un der foot of this same doctrine, that brought on the war; end the re-establishment of this principle will end tbe wan and in tbe move tents and events alluded to above, we find the seed that will ose day ripen into this very desirable fruit. And now wo ask, ought not the people of the South to priae more highly than any other political consid eration the doctrine of State rights t Should they not Vindicate it with'their lives, and if need be let ell of onr property be sunk,-and tbe last one of our race be blotted eut in defense of the rights and the sovreignty of States I Let it never 1 e yielded under any plea whatever. Let Georgians forsake and repudiate all other causes and considerations, if it be necessary, to maiota'n, intact, the sovereignty of our great Slate. The only way for us to succeed is by afirmadhere- ice to principle—a stubborn and unyielding defen-e of Uie principles for which we boldly entered into tha conflict. Men always succeed by standing op for and defending the rignt and adhering to correct princi ples, though the heavens bn. Success gained by any other means will not bo durable, and any: present at tainment by resort to any expedient at a sacrifice of tbe fandamental principles ef eternal truth and right, will be of short duration. It mey even turn to ashes upon our lips; it will, certainly entail a train of evfia that will lead ns In thegnlf of rain and lose ui mil. How sod then, in view of all these facts, so potent to every observing man, to find a few among us sneer ing at State rights and State sovereignty, and scoffing at those who advocate this doctrine, which is onr osly hope—onr only salvation, our only security for perpet ual liberty! Wacoqjure our people, aa they value lib erty, to maintain Stata rights and sovereignty, and pat down those who spurn or disregard them. Without these we might as well have submitted to die Yanhees at first we will be mine .'. Mai stain it, and we pre serve^ the brat possible form, our greatest power, oar prosperity, our liberty anl th* rights of individuals. Tske a lesson .from the terrible ordeal that not only wc, but .the people of the. North, are now passing through, end will yet past through, before they will be content to let no alon-. If this great. principle is ac knowledged, established and.respccted by an, Ihwe i ao strife, or wars, or secession among tbe States. If it IS net rega-ded, wars, blood shed, separa tions, and all their concomitant evils are Heritable and will come. Let every mao guards* jealously tha right* and sovtreigaty of his Stale as he would his re moral honor and tbe honor and fair tarn* of his wife and children. “T. D. W.» ot Ads!,tion—bill of Camp 1 *t Georgia Bmimrht, \ ' Near Fairfield, Tenn:, Juno 6, 1863. J Dear Confederacy:—''Tiaraid “that distant: lends enchantment to the view.” I deny it No man in his senses that starts on a journey of several days, with a pone of oorn bread and a little salt bacon in his haversack, no pros pect of a feather-bed or mattrasa for the night, several inches of rain on the gronnd, and' a hard, rocky pike to walk on, can endorse that maxim as he trudges on, his eyes constantly looking to see tbe final termination of a long, straight road. And then the uncertainty ot his destination, an occasional discharge of signal guns, with now and then the report of shells or small arms on the right or left, in ray opinion has very little enchantment about it. It may be exciting to some people to go on long marches; it may create enthusiasm among our friends at home to read of our en durance, the trials and hardships of the sol dier, but if the admirers (distant onos I mean) of our comrades inarms could but see the wea ry soldier when ho has finishe d the long jour ney, his form bent from the fatigue, and his nervous system agitated, they would be in clined to offer more sympathy and less exulta tion and enthusiasm. If they were standing by, as the oft repeated order of “close up, close up 7” comes growling from the officers, they would wonder and say, “what endurance, what fortitude.” They had better say, “poor fellows.” * However, the soldier of the Southern Con federacy ia a machine, whose power of 1000- motion is taxed only to a certain degree, for like all other engines, if there be too much friction, the min machine halts, stops, and must recruit before it is made to move again. This puppet machine is to constructed that the slightest nod or word causes it to fall into line with its other companions, puts on its own knapsack and gun, having previously cooked corn bread and bacon, answers to its name, faces to the right or loft at a command, and marches arouad the stags to the infinite de light of the audience. And then it has never complained at this repeated attack to amuse the fashionable auditory, but it is so moulded, aud its peculiar construction is so admirable that it lives and movos and has its being at the will of the manipulator. It even eats bard bread without assistance, great ears being ta ken not to let the slightest grain of the flour of wheat beoome contaminated with i', exoept about once per month. Ia former daye, veg etables were freely devoured, but the Burgeon General discovering thst georbutio diseases were making tbeir appearance in consequence of vegetable diet, he became alarmed, and now the manipulator begs that no suoh requests be made of him to exhibit its powers of chewing poke salad $nd wild onioiui.

Th-y came snadeolr on the relief, inter mingling thsmseivrs so much that they coul.l not be dL-tinitu shed from onr o ro soldier t, and as they wore the Federal oniferm, it was difficult to distriminate. They succeeded in wounding one of cur men m the neck, and in killing a horse- They suffered no punish- nsst tn retain. Reinforcements to our guard soon arrived, one of whom tho rebels killed, and then fled to the woods, where they kept up a desultory firingnnta file o'clock this morning, without inflicting any farther damage, riot. Gray, with fonr squadrons of cavalry, then stait- cd in pwisu.t. and as far as heard from fits only suc ceeded in rapturing a rebel surgeon. He representi ilotby lo be in command on this occasion, with a force Colonel Mann immediate!y ordered detach ments of the- First Vermont and Fifth New York oavalry to proceed in the direction of the firing, each taking a sc-parsteTonte. This force' combined numbered in the neighborhood of-oil o hundred and sixty men. Tho detach ment of the Fiflb New Ydrk, after prooeflSing tiro miles, and on approaching a hill, yere fir ed upon by tbo enemy’s artillery. One eh ell exploded in the Bolid column; but-fortunately doing no further damage than killing tho horse of Lieut. BottieUe. The order wa9 then given to fall into line and charge; but owing to. the-nature of tho situation it was impossible to execute the manoeuvre, 'and Utoy according ly retired to a piece of wood*, .where line was formed.

After n dose and eager pmedit the 5th New York canto up with enemy’s rear guard and immmUately com menced skirmishing, keeping up quite a brisk firing with their pistols. At this juncture the 1st Vermont, under command of Lieut Colonel Preston, came up end joined the 5th, end imme diately tho whole body charged through tho woods, rite rebels being in rapid flight, ana were punued about two mile* and a half, until the enemy, turning a lane, brought their artillery in to position ana commenced bring. CHANGE ON TIIE REBEL BATTERY. Seeing the necessity for silencing the battery, Lt Barkef, of-the 5<h New York asked for voK unteers to follow him in anjeffort to take thefcuns. About thirty men promptly responded, and, plac ing himself at their head, he charged furiously, and was met when a short distance Pom the guns with a murderous discharge of grape and canister, which mowed down a great number of the men. Lient. Baker hi.nself was wounded in two place* by grspeshot, but atill went onward until he crossed.sabres with the enemy over tlicir guns. In the meantime Lieut Duntck, ot the 5lh New Yoik, was despatched to order up the Vermont troops, and the wholo command again charged, Lieut Hazleton, of the let Vermont, leading the charge, and ciptmed ono of the ene my’s guns.

A desul tory fire was kept op with small arms, inflicting some damage un the enemy; but they sccccd- • d in carrying off their wounded in major pert. OUR CAVALRY HORSES GIVING OUT— THE PURSUIT RELINQUISHED. By this time our horses gtve evident symtoms of exbanston and ihe pursuit wee relinquished.— There is no doubt, had the troops been provided with horses such as are adapted to the uso of cavalry, not such scr ibe es the government fur- Jiieh, few, il -any, of tho rebels would have es caped. „ AMONG THE ENEMY’S WOUNDED wee a Captain Haskins, an English officer who ran the blockade some t jvo months previously trad espoused the rebel-cause.

A Ynuhee Utkcrlptlo-T or \\ h*t H* Saw ot Vicksburg sal Its Surroundings- A Yankee by the BStn* of Colburn—* corres pondent of tbe New York IFirW—one of the same scamps whe passed through this city and bad the impudence to send his card to this of fice aud that of the IiUeUigtucer asking as a courtesy, some of our exchanges to read; who was rescued from a watery grave in front of Vicksburg, by the misplaced kindness ol our soldiers, and who was recently released from the Ltbby Prison at ‘Richmond, has gone hack to hia Yankee friends, filled with information about the condition of affairs in tho South. He was a prisoner in Vicksburg for three or four days, and here is his description of Vicksburg end its eurronndinga. Just now, as (he Balti more American remarks, they are of special in terest : VICKSBURG. At Vicksburg we remained two dsye, being confined first to the common jail and-af terward* to the upper stories of the Court House. As Vickoborg must be.toourannalsapoint of greet interest, we give our impressions ol it; hoping ere long (o verify with more leisure end liberty their accuracy. We were, notwithstanding tho .thundering salute attending our entret, disap pointed in if aa a fortified position. From an clovated lodgment, from walks about town, bur entrance and exit, from conversation and teeti. moiiy of many knowing persons, wo believe the strength of Vicksburg in men, gunB, works and natural conformation to have been.overrated— The site is .admirable, especially for river do. fensc. The batteries fronting the river are neither so numerous nor dangerous as commons iy supposed. 'Although it is likely thatpuptr.- lion of tho heavy guns have been tranafered to Grand Gulf, Big Black, aud Haino’s Bluff, we guess the number of guns on the river side to be le. i than forty and never to have exceeded seventy. BY TELEGRAPH. Of these we are informed: only three are,10- inrb, two 9, and four 8, three/ifled, and the real' 33-pounders. There ia hut one casemeted bat tery in the vicinity. Tho earthworks are, how ever, perfect of tfaieir kind. Negroes are still at work on bomb-proofs and magazines, probably to guard against mortar shells. A landing from tho front in our judgment is feasible, though now happily needles*. The rumored fortifica tions in the atreets are simple little pits or Captain Haskins mol.bis death wound thus: He fired his pistol and wounded a private of Company F, Filth New York, and ordered him, with an oath, to surrender, his words being, “Surrender, von damned Yankee.” The Yan kee replied, defiantly, that.“he would see him danfned first,’.’ and turning -quickly in saddle fired hi* pistol Over his shoulder, inflicting a wound from which Captain Haskins will nover recover. THE REBEL COMMANDER. - Moaby was in command in person, his force about 100 ationg, iuclusive of the artillery. The object of his errand was to destroy the train, for wbich he paid a. heavy penalty in tho loss of his artillery (twelve pound howitzer taken from the federate at tbe battle of Ball’s Bluff,) and in 'the loss of hiB men in killed, wounded aud pris oners. THE TROOPS FOUGHT GALLANTLY, and the Fifth New York ably sustained the claim to the title oi the “Fighting Fifth ;" nor were the First Vermonters behind hand; and if all was not accomplished that was expected, tho responsibility -rests on the shoulders of tho negligent officials', to call them by no more se vere term, who permit such horses to be palmed off by dishonest contractors on the govern ment. - A list of killed and wounded amounting to eighteen is appened by the correspondent. ' Trie State off the South. We lay before our readers to day a letter from Mr. Colbnrn tbe correspondent of the New York World who passed through this city sometime ago a prisoner. The florid makes the letter the text for a long editorial, of which the.following is the concluding por tion: Thu military strength of the Sonth, in Mr. Colburn’s judgment, has certainly not been impaired by tho duration of tb- war. . Resaw evidence enough to convince him that great masses of military stores had been accumulat ed. in various parts of the Confederacy, and that the whole population had flowered into a nation of soldiers. His comments upon the strictness with which the military spirit rules the land alike for evil and for good, upon the official probity which it exacts, and the indi vidual recklessness of peace which it educates, are strikingly significant. What was plain encu-h before becomes plainer still from his narrative ; that, beaten upon the anvil of war, the armies of the South are gaining steadily in temper and in epriug. While such armies exist, can he held together and wielded with skill along the vast frontier of war, it is clear os tho sun at noonday that no blows struck for mero geographical or strategical points of vantage can bring us decisively nearer the goal of our efforts. Nut le?s is the strong delusion of starvation as * war measure disipalcd by Mr. Colburn’s observations. He found the land everywhere teeming with cereals, and tho necessaries of life assured. Fi. onc.al embarrassmflfl)*' I®*, adequate manufacturing facilities, 'the strin gency of the blockade may confpire to make existence uncomfortable in the South, but they caunot make it impossible, and where life is there will be hope and patience, even in the worst of causes. Inspired by passion, enured to arms, and able at least to live, and move, and fight, the - millions of the rebellious Soutb it is once more set before us, must be dealt with if we are to win them back to the Union as a foreign people of equal power and spirit should be. The war against them must be waged with the highest skill, the sternest ener gy we can command; but it must be waged al so under the eagle eye of a statesmanship which can prepare conciliation in the midst of conquest, make victory the harbinger of jus tice, and anticipate the golden moment vouch safed by Heaven to every people contending for the right, when the night of force and tbe d.-.wn of reasoi: first mingle ia the urieni sky. Address to Mary 1 »»tler«. General Trimble bos issued the following or' ders: Major-.Gcn.-J. R. Trimble having been as signed to the command of the Valley District of the Department of Northern Virginia, invites all citizens of Maryland, in or out of tho army, to join the Maryland troops now serving in litis district, with a view to increase the organization from that State to a body formidable by its num here and gallantry. Under this command every Marylander will have a field for the display ot that devotion and bravery in the cause of tho South whii h it is V ell known they possess, but which have hero- tolore been much obscured by tbeir separation into almost every brigade of the army. Marylanders should bear in mind that upon themselves must rest ihe honor and renown of bringing their State into tho Southern Confed eracy, and ot avenging tho wrongs inflicted npon her sous and daughters by the Goths and Van dals of the North, wbo, true to the instincts of their race, have done more outrage to the feel ings to humanity, to Christian civilization, and to Christian' freedom, than any nation of this enlightened age.

We collate the following itemo ol Northern' news from the Petersburg Repress which has received files of Northern papers to the Clh : BOMBARDMENT QF VIQKBBURG—REBELS CAPTUB kd—joiinstoR moving. Chicago, lane 5.—A special dispatch from the retr of Vicksburg, dated May 31*t, (8un day)*aya: The bombardment of Vicksbnrg continues.— All our guns in position opened fire at midnight and continued their fire until daylight. Tho ra- -‘dity of tffis firing was unparalleled, and it is ilievetf great damage was done. At ■« . Twolvo rebets were captured at daylight yes terday, endeavoring to run through our pickets and get into the city. Two hundred thousand dollars found in their possession was captured. One of the rebels, a boy, came out of the city Mk IwmmI Allegiance, shoulders of ramparts projecting into the road way. The works back of the'city ate ordinary entrenchments commanding the roads and small earthworks on the riogea Every hill on the outskirts is crested witli an earthwork. Judging from the works at their tenderest point (Big Black Bridge,) the defenses at the rear are ru dimentary only. The country is rough, a suc cession of small hills, to the banks ot the Big Black, bnt tho roads are pood aud tbe hills each commanding tho other. Unless by some overs whelming attack, tbe Confederates might resist a Urge forco at every roaJ, anil to prolong the seige. . STENGTH AND WEAKNESS OF THE ■■■■HHplace. The very length ol the line, from Warrenton up tho shores of the Big Black, and across to the Yazoo, or, what is the same, tho meagren;?* of their Tnic'esto guard it, is the great weakness of tho position, tt would require to keep such a line (twenty six miles) intact, an array of fifty thousand men and a hundred pieces ol light ar tillery. I have a grounded conviction, based upon concurrent testimony, - that at the time of our sojourn there, were not more than fifty tAous sand troops west of tie smaller stream gnd six thousand east. Could all tneso be concentrated upon one decisive point they might with their works repel five times their numbers; but a rep etition ol such a plan of attack on onr -part they they may never hope for again. The Confederate hopesof Vicksburg arc main ly hung npon Gen. Johnston, who arrived at Jackson on tbe 13th, and was pursued thence after a destructive fight next day. Hia plan ap pears to bo to mass a considerable army outside and drive off the boseigers. Wa do not believe his intention is tn get inside of Vicksburg, but to leave that post to Pemberton. It he can do this. Gran) is,by the double line; front and rear, placed in u critical position. GENERAL JOHNSTON AND HIS FOR .. CE3. / We have no fears for the result; btM in this case minutes sre of great moment. To the three thousand lorces pt Jackson, when wo pas sed through, Johnston seems to have, scraped up six thousand additional. .Loring. ia since at Jackson with his corps, which will leave Grant with fifteen thousand in his Iront and say twenty thousand in the roor, deducting disabled and captured In the three Isle engagements,, which, from the meagre reports received at Ricmond, we judge to . be eonaidenble. The extent to which Johns! in cut be reinforced by way of the railroad from the Tombigbee to Meridian is fif teen linndren a day. His army cannot- be sup plied by that ronte. Vicksburg is provisioned thirty days only. The country affords’-him per* hap* a sufficiency oi corn and l'oragc. His com munication with the rest of the South is preca rious, and if Grierson be not idle, may be de stroyed. General Martin Lulltcr Smith, commanding a division, is post captain. Major General Forney, an Alabamian of small reputation, wields one corps, and General Loring tho other. Lient. Gen. Pemberton, a pet ot president Davia, of small field experience, commands the departs inont. Much and bitter criticism of his compe tency exists in the South, but I am intormed in high quarters that tbe selections of Mr Davis have uniformly proved to be so good, that his judgment in tn untried caBo is not urgently op posed. Full General Johnston is the fanning of ficer, and has been sent to tbe sceno of action charged with tbe duty of saving Vicksburg. It is needless tossy thst considerable alarm exists in the Con'ederscy (or its fall, and from gty near er and inside views of affairs I see nothing to bar the way to victory. - REBEL DECEPTIONS. U ia astonishing holt long anil how much tbo enemy has, here os, elsewhere, befooled and thwarted us by an empty show of strength. It is admitted by those who have lited in and defended Vicksburg, that it might have been taken at any time since the fall of Memphis with lets force than we have brought ogttiuBt it. When Farragut first approached it, in May, 1862, tt was almost delencotess. When Davis went, iu June, the place was all hut evacuated. In' December, when Grant was marching on Grenada, and Sherman attacked from tho Yazoo river, the rebels had but thirteen hundred m n ia tho city, wbilo tho latter was two days tied up at. Millikon’s liend. By the forenoon of the dsy of assault they had received nine regiments from Mo- !-tit's Canton aud JAekfloa.' At the close of the assault, when we fell back,the re( ort had spread in the city th .t the Vanhcus wen: Coming, m.-d m r-e :,r i - .: ■ soldier and civilian, tmgnn to scamper out of town. The bombardments have not hurt Ihe city appreciably. It is acknowledge! by tho Rebelsthat Grant is an officer who goes right on, blunderinc-, as they say, into fight and glory. They fear his luck, but pretend to de- spiao his soldierly qualities. It he takes Vicksburg, however, and wa confidently be lieve he will, they must acknowledge either that the Fates are not on their side, or that he is abetter General than Johnston. Judging from the despatches already at hand, he has gained trsmendons advantages over the Reb els; has them hemmed in, and will make an other and grander Dinelson of it, in the which case he will a second time earn the nation’s thanks. - - JACKSON, KISS. We leu Vickstiirg on the Cth f>r Jackson where we found estheucolly and stomschioally an improvement. We were allowed to go to the hotel for meals, and received some kind visitors of the professional land. I should mention that the more cultivated pel sons sym pathized with our misfortunes if not our cause. Mrs. Archer, a good Southern lady, and there few such, sent my barefooted brother tefluays ago,rand , when he was allowed to go to his home, four miles back. He will probably be condemned as •st Johnston u represented to be moving towards Jackson, hot not in force sufficient to attack us.

A deserter came info onr lines -his morning. He represents that ho was sent by General Pemberton to communicate verbaliy with Gen erals Johnson and Loring. Ths former is ■ up- posed to bo between the Big Black riverand Jackson. The latter was near Port Gibson. He represents affairs in the oity as growing desperate. About eighteen thousand effective men are there, two. thirds of whom Are kept ou tho fortifications night and day, and not al lowed to leave on instant on any pretext. Gens.

Some sup posed that our shells had set the buildibg* on fire, and others conjectured that tbe rebels were destroying the supplies preparatory to a surren- der. ’ /‘r.f Gen.
