The Express Compauy. For a week or more, we have noticed two oi three newspapers making a war on the South ern Express Company—obarging it with dis loyalty to the Confederate States, in some ca ses, and in others with extortion in making charges for the transportation of packages to our aoldiers, Ae. We have oarefully noticed theee newspaper attacks on the company, aud have failed to discover the slightest evidence of disloyalty or impropriety. Nothing of the kind has been elicited eo far, and we are very cure nothing of the kind existe. The war on the company is purely melieioue, and without a tingle eireumetanee to justify it. This is our conclusion from all the lights before ue. In the first place, if it was nn unfriendly ooaeern, en organisation of enemies, it would soon be exposed. No such extensive an or ganisation, having so many men in it, located in every eity and railroad station in the South, and having such daily and sxtensivo inter course with our people, could bo disloyal and keep it concealed. If they were doing any thing against our interest or safety, it would be discovered at once Secondly, the men who own the stook of the company, and are its employees, are known, ars of us and with ns. It is urged that some of its empioyeta are Yankees, aod an attempt is made to create public prejudice against thsm on this aecount. It is true that there are some men of Northern birth connected with the company, but it is also true that there are men of Northern birth in every com munity and connected with every occupation or business that people in the South are en gaged in. We know some Yankees that are farmers, and others lawyers and merchants. It would be equally as charitable and reason able to charge that the farmers, lawyers or merchants, as a elsss, were nnsound, as to cry out sgsiost the Express Company, calling it an unsound and disloyal organization, because ■ome men employed by it were so unfortunate as to be b>rn in the North. There are a number of Northern born men in the army—some privates and some officers—who aro aa loyal aud faithful to tho Confederate States as any native to the manor born. A few Yankees have gone into the army from the South, and, alter getting to head-quarters, have stepped across the lines and gone over to the enemy, and a few South ern born men have dooe the same thing. A few Yankees now atnoug us are traitors at heart, and we have no doubt a few Southern men among us are, if their hearts were open to be seen and read of all men. We hope this tirade against the company will cease. It is groundless and unjust. The Express-men are as loyal u any other set of men or organiza tion of equal numbers. It is one of the greatest conveniences of the age. Except the Post Office, the public has no suoh accommodation. If anybody thinks the chargee are unreasonable, and that they are guilty of extortion, the door is open to competition. Do their work cheaper, and they will soon be forced to shut up shop. News from ManaNsas. It did not come. It is shut oft We have no Intelligence from there either by letter or tele graph Bincc the 27th July. Some of our citizens have come from the place since then, hut they are under a pledge not to tell anything of the movements of the army. We all want to hear from our friends, and to know what Beauregard and Johnston are driv ing at, but wc can’t know it just now. Well, it is all right. We’ll bear It, and beg our readers to do so, because we can’t help it if wc try. In the meantime, lookout to hear of something grand before long.

The Lincoln Congress has adjourned, tine die, without ratifying ffin Apeship’s uncor sti tutional aets. A bill to tbai effect had passe J both Houses, perhaps, several limes: but there was always some amendment tacked on, which required it to be sent back to the other House. In this way, it fell through to the and of the session. It. howsver, is tacitly iudor»ed, for he was not impeached. 8ad DisAProiNTNENT.-The Legislature of the vagabond Carlile Government was Is session in Wheeling at the time of the battle of Manassas. It was about to adjourn on the eve of that bat tle: but a message was received by it from Abe Lincoln, urging it to remain In session a few days longer, In order that tho whole Govern ment might adjourn to Richmond and organize In the Capitol there! The Legislature nostponed its day of adjournment, and awaited with de lightful anticipations, the news of that certain victory which was to give them the possession of a real Government House and Capitol, and a plenty of money to pay their grog and board bills and furnish them with new clothes in lieu of their dilapidated toggery. But In place of vlctoiy came defeat, and the poverty-stricken and disappointed counterfeit statesmen adjourn ed in disgust, and “dispersed to their respective homes.” to reflect upon their treachery.
