'' '-" Gen. Butler is a prominent candidate for the Presidency on the Abolition ticket. This fact will explain the reason why he lias been made Mayor of Old Point Comfort." ; Lincoln is determined to kill off air his rival. He cannot brook the idea o having opposition in his own ranks. But the very course he is pursuing towards Generals Fremont and Butler, is only widening the breach in the Abolition party, and intensifying the already bitter feeling that : prevails against Lincoln's re nomination in hia own party. : The Anti-Lincoln movement. . The Washington correspondent of the New York World writes; The important document which appeared in to-day's Tribune, signed by prominent Republicans and members of the New York Legislature, demanding a postponement of the June Convention, until the 1st of September, has proved - a bum bsh ell in the camp of the Lincolnites here. It ia well nn-deretood that this is the first of a series of important political movement in the Republican party, the objects of which are to set aide Mr. Lincoln hs a presidential canfidate, ; It is a notable fact that, outside the ring of office-, holders, Mr. Lincoln has scarcely a friend of eminence in Washington. Tiiis new political development has nothing to do. whatever with the Fremont movement, which is a matter by itself. .Mr. Lincoln's chanees for the nomina-tiod are ilitniaiahiug every day, as all the talent and weghl of character in Ihw party are Steadily taking ground against him. : u Another Xie Sailed to the Cmnte We take the following. from the proceedings of Congress of Thursday week : Mr. Voorhees, of Indiana, asked that a telegram received ry him to day be read, as it Iiom n Waring on a personal explanation. He would not now indulge in any remarks because the gentleman Garfield who recently read letters purporting to have been by Hon. John G. Davis to Judge Eckles.. was not in his seat. Consent having been given the dispatch was read as follows : j Terre llaCTE, April 21st, 1SC4. lIon. D. W. Voorhees: The letter purjwrting to be written by me to John C. Breckinridge, used by Gen. Garfield, is ntterlv false a base forgery. Signed Jso. G. Davis. It will be- rememVered that Garfied in a speech in Congress, during the debate on the censure of Mr. Long, brought forward a trumped up letter alleged to have been written by Mr. Davis, recommetiding a young man , formerly in the Union army, to Mr-Breckinridge, for a position in the rebel armyl Mr. Davis need not have taken the trouble to brand the letter ao a base forgery. Any one, who is not a fool or a bigoted fanatic, would have known as much it bore it on its face But there are still left some Abolition fools who are ready, like drowning men, to catch at straws, and for their benefit the denial ie made. The Abolition papers have all giveo publicity to this for gery ; bat-there not a particle of danger of any of them ever correcting the falsehood. They are never guilty of any thing of that kind. Lincoln and Liberty. . . President Lincolu in his Baltimore speech seems sadly at a loss far a definition ; of the word Liberty and no wonder. He says : "The world has never had a good definition of the word liberty, and the American people, jurt now, are much in want of one." In illustration of the difficulty be presents the following problem: ' 1 ; The shepherd drives to, wpir from the sheep's throat, for which the sheep tlvanks the ehepherd as a liberator, while the wolfdenoun ces turn for the same act, as the -destroyer of liberty, especially as the sheep was a black one. Plainly, the sheep and the wolf are. not agreed upon a definition of the word liberty : and precisely the same difference prevails to day among us human creature, even in the North, and all professing to love liberty' " nits smacES oi Aoranam vne joner, and a pretty good joke it w. y Why. won't the shep herd let the wolf eat the sheep? Simply bt- cause, hit wants to too him nf his wool am( eat Aim himself.. But the poor sheep don't understand it and calls him bis " liberator. " r?' Soothe political "liberator" rescpes the poor negro from hia master; but makes birn'ilght the white man's battles or work ORrovern- nicnv plantations., anu tata is called lAberiy. Plainly" do the American people pery jnueA need a UeGnition of Liberty. . ' .i- mn' ; ns-i.;::- An Incident ia Hew Orleans.

We also lost 31 pieces of artilery, a large portion of the wagon train containing ammunition, large number of horses, a safe containing $10,-000 in greenbacks. At last accounts the rebels had . possession of .Mansfield, w hiah is Uiia side of the last battle ground. Other private letters confirm these statements, and place heavy blame on Banks, Franklin and Stone, and clamor for the ; removal . of. Banks, and court martial o Franklin aud Stone. The Washington correspondent of the Com-menial says of it : .' r ' V v" WasHixaTOJr, April 23 .. ' ' ' . - ; -. .. - THE SIUITIt OK BID RirR XE PORTS AT VA9BIKQT0M CONCERNING IT. . No official reports of the recent battles on Red River have been received from General Banks in addition to those published in the New Orleans Era. Unofficial letters from per-persons upon wbosetestimony reliance is placed in high quarters, give even a more unfavorable account of the condition of things than has heretofore been published, and comment severely . upon the lack of prudence and of genera ship displayed by-General Banks and Gen Stone, who was sent to him for Chief of Staff at his urgent request. . One letter says Gen. Banks, with his fine army of 30,000 was totally defeated and routed by 12,000 under Dick Taylor. : - It was done in this manner : Banks sent out 6,000 cavalry in advance with all their wagons (two hundred) just behind them. This force of Cavalry was supported by about 2,000 infantry, while the great mass ol the army was far in the rear coming up in anything but good order. The result can be easily imagined. The whole of the rebel array charged on the cavalry, stamped them back onthe infantry, and the whole concern turned round and ram ' .'.'; - . It was a complete rout. The rebels captured fifteen hundred prisoners, eghteen guns one hundred and sixty wogons, and a large supply ol provisions, &c, besides V driviitg our army bank fifteen miles to Pleasant Hill.

Senator Hc.vdxksov, of Missouri, one of the most moderate of the Republican leaders, delivered a speech the other day in bis place in the Senate, in which he said: ''' There are but two sides to the question .t The one is. Union without slavery j the other Is, the immediate and unconditional acknowledgment of the Southern Confederacy. ' Therefore, let the elements of opposition' at once combine, that the friends of the Union may determine upon the best course to secure peace. If these elements are too strong to be subdued, except at the expense of our own Jib-erties and the loss of every ood for which the Government was established, the sooner we know the fact and act upon it, the better. ' ... If it becomes evident that the friends of sia-very are strong enough In this country to resist alt efforts to Bubdue them, I shall act upon it. I am not prepared to ruin the country in a vain efibrt to do what cannot be done. Shall this war go on for ever? Is the common cry of . the last man and the last dollar" poetry, patriotism, or braggadocia? Should the war go on until the public d-bt equals the entire wealth of the country? Should the whole capital of the people be farced into Federal securities, and these securities made the basis of an irredeemable paper circulation? Should it go on until misery broods over the whole land ; until civil authorities shall become impotent; and all rights of" person and property' stand at the mercy of military power? ' Should it go on until flie members of the Senate and House of Representatives shall owe their places here to the bayonet, instead of the ballot-vox ; until they become as contemptible as the Rump Parliament that so long enacted the military usurpation to the overthrow of the English Constitution, to be finally expelled from'place by the power they had so basely served ? Should it go on until corruption and fraud, the necessary concomifS ants of civil war, shall have crept into high places and put on the garb of patriotism ; until officers become so numerous that official patronage may quarter one half the people upon the other half, and give them the means of perpetuating their own power? Should it continue until, exhausted, the nation would welcome the coming of a Cromwell or a Bonaparte ; nnti! provost marshals with military policy shall be stationed at every village in the Northern States, displacing the civil anthority, issuing orders for governing people heretofore supposed to be' able to govern themselves; teaching how God shall b worshipped, prescribing new and strange offenses, and punishing them tty conrt-raartial ? Should it continue until financial ruin brings misery, and misery rushes into anarchy,' when no hope but despotism is left? v 7. .... : Mr. President, a few years mare of civil war, and the outline of this picture will be seen. iicaixmi w uuierwise: it js The neeessarr result of aong ctvt t'tnfe. -t Peacerpartiea will inuiyp; ine paotication ol newspapers will be nppresed,'and freedom of speech denied; mobs will retaliate; the blunders, an well as the rruption, of the war party will tend to strengthen the convictions of the peace party ; the period being one of violence' each party appeals to violence, the one to hold, the other to obtain power ; the ballot-box becomes a mockery, a cheat; instead of proclaiming the voice oi a free people, it speaks the subdued language of base subserviency, or the bold tone of military despotism. Such is the history. We are not exempt from the frailties that wove this web of history for others. Party pride, blinded vanity, may think so. These have driven many nations from the enjoyment of liberty to the pfofound-eet depths of tyranny. To prevent this state of things, we are all interested ; one party no more than another; for, when it comes, all parties will snffer alike. . When the Roman legions had subdued Carthage, the enemies of Hannibal, who, in party blindness, had compassed his defeat, shared the same fate with his friends. Party revenge may be eotis fled when political enemies come to grief; but this is tie compensation for a ruined country. When anarch r comes, we are overwhelmed alike. The Giroist and the Jacobin followed each other in rapid succession to the guillotine. The Rovalist and the Republican, the Presbyterian and the Leveler, suffered when party divisions sacrificed the bl saiags of the revolution, and establishel a despotism for England more loathsome than Charles had ever proposed. - In this moment of danger, let all parties abandon the prejudices of the past, and resolve to follow the dictates of right. Whatever establishes justice tends to restore the Union. Whatever perpetuates wrong will continue to disturb our peace Let us unite to restore the Union, and if that'fce impracticable, let us abandon the war. ' ' ' ? ' .- Mr. President, the party in power should remember the past. The responsibility of the present occasion 'is momentous. Will they he able to save the Union, and if ao, will they be able tosave anything else that is desirable? These are plain questions, and they ought to be discussed in all candor. I have never doobtod that the rebellion could be crushed.-if the proper course of policy were pursued. , But I have always feared -that-when the Southern leaders, who had eo long domineered over the minority, left these halls, the political pendulum would sweep too far to the other side. Every-wrong had been' previously committed in defense of slavery. . It was but reasonable that thereafter some wrongs uiigkt be committed in the name of anti-slavery. In the days of Louis XV., the French people hadT been oppressed in the name of tbe Church. When oppression had been thrown off. they not only sought and worshipped, the ashes of' Voltaire, but mocked the emblems of the true religion. .1 once before 'stated, and I. now repeat, j he opinion, that if the people of the seceded States -were all united as men are united when inspired by a jnst cause, when urged on by convictions of diUy to self, to cotrntry, snd to God, they waver could be conquered.

The same authority tells us that tbe rebel armies ; are. in a tate of atarvatton. and in the same column reports the; destruction of commissary stores as the pnUkirts of reteldota sufficient to subsist theic, armies . for three months.: We are told by the reports of chief engineers and: major-generals -in commaud, that forts have been Jeveled , by. our artillery, have become a mass ofshapeless ruips, and unavailable-for defense.

For three years the armies of the rebellioa have defied our "power. In April. 1P61, the Executive and his advisers thought that enty five.tbousand men could suppress the outbreak in- three months. In Jnly," 1861, tbe Congress supposed that five hundred thousand men would soon complete the work, - With an army of many hundreds of thonsands now in the field, the same authorities regard it necessary to add seven hundred thousand more to. our present force. " Who is the man that thinks the rebel iou weaker to-day than it was cne, two. or three years ago? 'It Is easy to say we think it weaker. Indeed it may notbe so strong; but our actions give no evidence that such is onr opto-ion.

We should like to know, now, if onr law-making hopefuls got chock full of such good fun in one little bit ot au hour, or whet 1m er some of them or a great many of them outstayed their time. ; It would not lie surprising if they did ; for, having no harsh master to chastise theui their school being a moral session airaritr riient, we are told they could easily see the thing out and call i( a day. Besides the fun of the thing, they could set down the gain thus: "Uncle Sam to-Congressman Dr. to one hour's time seeing the nigger soldiers. $1,00 ; to time lost afterwards, in consequence of ditto, $4,00," Ac.

The whole family, of the brassica is cap: able of great development. . See what splendid varieties of the cabbnge and turnip hare been brought into use by careful cultivation, to say nothing of them all. Perhaps some, who, like myself, practice gardening on a small scale would like to know how to cultivate this esculent. For twenty-five years I have not failed bat once to raise a supply for my family: There are two methods I have practiced ror starting them, one to plant them in a billand then transplant. Each method has it advantages. When I transplat, which I am as likely to do on a summer day as on any other, I; pour a little water round the plant,- n ad immediately lay over it a leaf of burdock, rhubarb or grape and then let it wilt down overtth leaf and 'remain there two or three days. I. then remove them, hoe them, and place a platform of newspaper around the plant, which may be rapidly done by tearing up pieces eight inches equare, tearing a slit in one side to the center, and placing a little earth on the edges. This will keep off the cutworms. If a plant tarns to a lead color pul it up. and snppty ita place with another. In this way I never ail of cabbages, if I don't let the cows get in and eat them up. .

Knock a floor barrel to pieces; take one of the hoops and tw of the staves, sharpen one end of thmsnd hail the other ends' to the opposite sides of the hoop, set it over the plant and drive 'it Into the ' ground. ' The vines will hang over tbe edge of the hoop, free from the groond. -'Set the staves in the next hill at right angles with those in the first, and let the hoops just come together' and tie them with a string la sack a way as to support each other. Thus at trifling expense of time and money, yon may effertrw ally train all your tomatoes. . Three may tf little mailers, but they will insure great cabbages and tomatoes. N, T. T. Aiw lglid Farmer.
