A Rebel Telegraph Operator in Commsi. cation with. fituburg.UuX night, aboat 0 o'clock, a meaaage waa reoelaeo in the te. graph offioa here, from MeConuellsbari, which left no doubt that the line at that poiu was in the poeaeeaioa of the rebels. The rebel! Kaan erlrlawl operator bi uw itciu with any great daKrea of aharpness, aa he I made hlmieir known tne anoment no atwoaea his icatrnment, bo that the different office along tba line had prompt notiee of hi presence, and ware enabled to prevent him obtaining any information whatever as to what waa paaairjg over tba line.

After a few boaatfol meeagee, relative to what the rabela had done and intended doing, had been received, It vaa determined to ascertain where the fallow was, and the following conversation between the operator at Bedford and the rebel took plaea Bedford Office Where are too Rebel At tha toot of Cove MounUln. Where are yon Bedford At the bate of Laurel Hill Mountain. Rebel Where the bell and damnation ia that? Bedford Wonld yon like to know Rebel Yes, where tha bell Is itT Bedford Then aak Jenkina.

Bedford You'll let ua know when you Uke them, won't you 1 After some mora language of this kind, the rrbol began to loee hie temper and became very abnaive, using language which will not ear reportiogr. In a aubeequent conversation with one of the operators here, be stated that bs same was Scanlan and that the rabela would be on here very soon.

He was very cautious about giving information of any kind, however, aad we may aay for our boy that be got even less than be gave. After about twenty minute' atay, he elated that he waa going to "cot off," as he bad been ordered to leave for the North, and that waa the laat beard from bim PitUburg Chronicle, How Tiey Vote in France. A correspondent of the London Examiner visited the voting polls in Paris during the recent elections, and reports that nothing can be more orderly and tranquil than the He gives an interesting description of the manner in which the details of a French election are conducted A police officer is stationed at the entrance of the hall of voting, who merely inquires whetner yon are an elector. Aa a atraager, I was invited by tba Mayor, with my companion, to witness what was going on. The Mayor presided over the table, on which was placed tba ballot-box.

Every elector had at the door ae pa rata tickets given bim, on which wore printed the names of the candidate. Each ticket resembled the others, so that wban folded it was utterly Impossible to distinguish the name of the person voted for. Tha elector presented a document printed on green paper, containing his name, quality, plaee of abode, and ertiflcate of registration. The name having bean called out, the ecru tine era, of whom there were four, examined tha electoral lists; and on ascertaining that the name was found there, the elector delivered bis folded ticket to the president, by whom it was dropped into the box. Voting always takes place on a Sunday, for tha convenience of toe laboring classes, and on the following Monday.

If any question of identity arise, two known inhabitants of the district are allowed to identify the individual who comes forward to vote. At 4 o'clock the ballot-box is sealed that of yesterday wsa courteously put into our bands. We found that the great proportion of electors vote on the second day, aa an additional eeeurity aeainat any tampering with the ballot-box. There were at no more than four or five electors in the room, and no one was detained a minute after bis certificate of registration was found to agree with the electoral lists. Morgan in Kentucky Again.

The Louisville Journal, of June 23, says Information of a perfectly reliable nature bas been received at headquartera in this city, that John Morgan has again invaded Kentucky. There is not a reasonable doubt bat that this Is trae. He crossed the Cumberland river at Carthage, last Friday evening, at 3 o'clock, with a force of four thousand man, reported to be half infantry and artillery, and the balance cavalry. From Carthage he took the road leading to Dixon's Springs and Fayette, in Mason county, Tenn aad from tbence to Soottville, Allen county, in this where he arrived on Sunday sight. From there he was in a position to operate on the a villa Railroad at any point between Bowling Green and Gallatin, or either of those point, and it ia undoubtedly hie intention to thus annoy, if possible, our communications with Nashville and Murfreeaboro, and plunder tba State of whatever be cau get that serve bim and hie rebel band.

Correspondence af the Mobile Hews.

Jacesob, June 26, 1863. Since my laat letter tha wind haa been west-s, nth west, and the explosion of the heavy puna at Vickabarg have been continually heard here with great distinctnes, and bave caused some little fluttering. My latest advices are to Wednesday night, when all was wall and general confidence prevailing. For the las week tumors have been afloat to the effect that supplies have been thrown into Vioksburg from the opposite aide-of tha river, and that a barge containing 300,000 rations bad been gobbled up while floating by for the Federal forces below. I cannot pretend to vouch for the truthfulness cf these rumor, but they are credited by many.

Our acoata coming in from tbe front got confused aa to tha namea of dava. and bad the big fight on Saturday instead of eaneaaay. A day or so makes but little difference They marie tbe awault and were repulsed. It is very difficult to obtain correct accounts, and we bave frequently to depend upon the state ments ci tne enemy for tbe reao.lt of. his movements, and when he owns a whipping I am not inclined to dispute it.

Joe Johnston appear to ba very busy, and ia rapialy organizing for battle, bat when or where it will be fought, if fought at all, is another question, lie has a bad babit of keeping bie own counsel, and will deceive friend as well as foes. His operations are mysterious, and at the same time circumspect. 1 nave got ready" to change my bae seve rai times, ana nave not change yet. It is a good thing for a general to have no secret keepers wben that ia the case, there ia some prooaoiiity 01 something being done of value. From the west aide of the river we only the state of affaire but very imperfectly.

Matters, however, are very annoying to the enemy and will be made much more disagree- ania in a lew aaya. A contraband ont from Vickaburg on the bueineta of hi master reports that on laat Monday of our forces made a sortie and bagged some 300 or 400 Federals. I give this ior wnat 11 is worm. In Northwestern Miaaiaalppi the Hatch raid appears to have been lees fortunate than here tofore.

Lee's army which reached hare yesterday by the Central train, possesses interest in no common degree. It Is aid that the whole of our army ia now be yond the Potomac. Loagatreet, who waa tbe laat to eroae, naviag passed tba river at ISd- wards Ferrv. near Leeaburg. oa 8ondav even lug.

A P. Hilt is believed to bave crossed at a ford higher op the river two days before. Whilst the rear of Longstreet waa crossing tne nver, a severe eavairy ngnt took place hack or Leeburg, near the gap in tbe K.iuo-tan Mountains, through which his core had juat paaaed. We presume that all of Steart's ongaaea were engaged la this ngnt, bat nave heard nothing definite on the subject. It is reported, however, that we used artillerv free ly in the engagement.

From the beet information we have, it would appear that Gen. Lee haa moat sooceasfully used hie cavalry to cover the movementa of hla infantry. Ever since Stuart's grand re vavw ui wiuanii auv mtuvutj nae wvu va sesaed with tbe belief that he waa seeking an opportunity to make a great eavairy raid Into I'ennsyivanta. 1 his idea has been encouraged to that extent that oar cavalry movements bave engrossed all the attention of the enemv. and whilst he has been devoting all bis energies to nipping the raid in tbe bod, our Infantry and artillerv have been steadily aad ailent- ly moving northward in rear and to the left of our cavalry.

An occasional correapondent sends the following to the New York Tribune, under dato of Washington, Jane 24th Tbe informa'ion I gave you last week concerning a conference between the representa tives of the Confederate Government abroad and the Minister of Foreign Affairs ia Eug- land and France has been fully confirmed by late mails. The correspondence jast received states that Messrs.

Mason and Slidell, having exhausted all argument for tha recognition of the southern fjonrederacy without success, have determined to assert its independence as regard Us relations with other countries in such a way aa to make that recognition neces sary to the interests or foreign powers, without alienating their good will. A note baa been forwarded by Mr. Benja min, the Confederate Secretary of State at Richmond, to the agents of the Confederacy abroad, with instructions to communicate it to the principal Powers or Europe. The contents of this note are substantially these The interests and the wishes of the Confederate Government, it is said, are to cultivate amicable relations with all the Powers of the Continent, and to offer them a generous participation in all the benefits of a free commercial, industrial and social intercourse with the South. But while this Government en- 'amies the warmest sympathy witn tne na- ons of the Old World, and desires to invite to a ahare in the wealth of the New, it 1st not forget that there are certain duties bnately connected with its safety and dig-u' which it would be wrong to ignore or 00k.

The following is an extract from the speech of Postmaster General Blair, at the recent political gathering at Concord, New Hampshire: If the history of the world, and the present aspect of both hemispheres, did not make manifest the absurdity of the proposed srstem of mixing the black and white races in the management or a common government, ana blending the two colors vo make a third or rather a piebald people of all colors, the repugnance of caste which haa grown up in this country, on the part of the white freeman to the black man contrasted by his servile condition from bis first appearance among ns as strongly as by hi ebon akin and curled hair certainly shows that nothing short of insanity could hope to reconcile the dominant, and I might say, tbe domineering race to such a conjunction. When the Northern free States have framed laws prohibiting the colored fread-man from obtaining a foothold on their soil, upon what terms can it be supposed the master race, in the alave States, would eon- sent to associate with negroes made free by the hand of war? They would see their State laws and their State rights, as tbey in-aiat, set aside by the deprivation of their ownership in slaves. This would be jast forfeiture. But while the free States of tbe North ex cluded the manumitted alavee from their soil, avowing the abhorrent feeling of caste as an insuperable bar to the association on any terms, much leu of equality, how could it be asked of the Southern States that this excommunicated race, surrendered by them ss slaves, should be retained, nevertheless, among them and admitted aa equals, and aa partaere in political power, in defiance of the eonetitaaon of tbe United States, and the laws even of the Northern Sutas, which brand them with the badge of Inferiority and political disability. Woald.not tha in ex tin iroiahab le Baemorv of wrongs on one aide, and of admitted mastery on the oiser, maae paueu ac 11 oie sconce oa titbrr side impossible tAU tbe bloodiest revolutions of ancient and modern times have been those breached by slaves against enslavers.

Our civil eloaiog intbe manom'selon of fonr million of slaves, to take equal rank with six million of enslavers, would be bnt the pre lude to a servile war of extermination. The advocate of tbia hybrid policy know this, bat tbey think tbe negro eeaential to the aelfish purpose 01 tneir political amoiuoo, mat, nxe Calhoun, tbey are willing to make him, aa well aa tbore who hold him in durance, tbe victim of their policy. I advocate the Preai- dent's plan of saving both and ministering to 1 their prosperity and elevation in their reapeo-live spheres to power and greatneea as a pee pie. This may be done by gradual legregBtioa of the two races, and assigning to each the regions on thia continent and adiacent ialee eon-genial to their naturea. Tbe old Roman policy of reading tbeir institution and inaoanee abroad in the world, bv providing homes for new people drawn into their servioe And wbom it was not politic and safe to settle in Italy, should be adopted in favor of the uu-homogeneous depenitnt people of African dee cent, wbom tbis war will throw upon the bands of the Government as frsedaen.

Many of tbem will enlist in the army multitades will be employed on tbe waste lands of tha Government providing for their own subsistence. All should be drawn together In military camps on the Roman plan put under the control of public officers instructed in the business of self government, self defence and self support, and when employed in the publie service amply compensated. they would be ia a state of probation, while the Govsrnment would have opportunity to provide for their settlement in tbe suitable regions to which they are invited as colonists, By such means the process of liberating four millions of bondmen, and then preparing them to assume tbe attitude ef a self governing nation, might ba made to sec ore to the United Statee forever their Union, their do- mettle peace and immunity from foreign invasion. Instead of tbe mutual benefite which the President's plan proposes to draw out of oar present adversity, what do those ultra humanitarians offer Thev profess so much nhilan- tbrcpy in the abstract, and such imperfect im- fiartfality in judging of human affaire, that lev seem to think tha millennium eeaaa. a ana invite tne uon ana ue lamo to lie down j.

Don't won thlnlr it an anomaly, Tom, yon preparing to fight ior your sewn ana nome, WBiist you nave nui a wiit 1 rune. The Author of Alton Locke.

Charles Kingsley, the erstwhile advocate of liberal opinions in such popular novels as Alton Locke," Yeast," 5ec, has recanted, and is now a good courtier. Rev. M. D. Con- way, the editorial correspondent of the' 1 Boston Commonwealth, thus refers to him in connection with some eulogistic re marks on Thomas Hughes, author of Tom Brown Mr.

Hughes was formerly the most intimate friend of Charles Kingeley. but Kiogrley has proved to be tbe Loet Leader" to the Liberate of Enirland. wbo almost wean whan thaw speak of bim. To be Professor of History la pome college, to be chaplain of the Prince of Wales, he haa abandoned the cause he once espoused. In speaking of him one quoted Drowning a saa verse Jast for a handful of silver he left as, Just for a riband' to stick in hit coat, Pound the one gift of whlch'Fortune Bereft OS, Lott all tke others she leu derote." Kipgrley is now a pampered fawner upon the nobility takes the aide of tbe oppressor ia our American struggle and spends hie time trying to prove what all, indudiag himself, know to be a lie.

Last evening that worthy old Veteran, Francois Lafargue, went the way of all the eartb. Though eighty-seven years of age, he performed the duties of a policeman until within an hour of his death.

Through all his long life he was never laid up by sick ness ana never partooB or intoxicating liquors in any form. He was a man of ordinary size. but of immsnie muccalar strength. Atis sinews were or steel, and in feats ei -atrensth be bad never, until after ba had reached the advanced age of three score years and ten, found a man of his size who was hi peer. We have often seen his strength tested, -but never saw him overcome.

His mother was born in this city, bnt he was born on one of the Weat Indian Ialands. He came hare wben Quite a young man, and has lived here under French, Spanish, and American rule. For many years he was commissary of the old French market but of lata he has per- formed the duties of pastoral policeman- ia Lafayette square. Haifa century ago he waa intrusted with the suppression of a negre rev- olntion no the coast which daty he sueceeafoilr performed. After that be fought under Jackson at Cbalmette, and often nave we heard tbe old veteran relate stortss of those olden times.

He waa a brave old man, truthful, industrious and energetic- He never partook of idle bread, and he died aa he lived, ia peaee -with all mankind.

He said he had only $66, which be was willing to pay, when he would retire from the agency of tbe estate-Michael Monagban was lined $10 for striking a boy named Wagnar with a hoop-pole -and knocking out a tooth.

Tbe case of George MeCkriaten, aecused of stealing horses, waa continued- Jarre sicLaugblin was lined or aa assault and battery on one Cooper, who was forcing himself on the hospitality of the accused. A man named Mullen was up for biting off bis friend Aleck's noes. The row occurred on board ot a vessel. It was a roagb and tumble fia-ht. One tried to goage the other's eye eat.
