TbC Debate the, Parliament. The debate which took plliee recently in the British on American afiaira is interesting as showing the different Bnadea of opinion -which are entertained In England in regard to bur National status and the existing relations of the' two governments. Some of the speeches were mild, and couched in language that indicated-a desire on the part of the speakers to lay aside national and look at our affairs, both home and they really are. Prominent anrong-theBO was Mr. Cobden, who urged the importance of enforcing the foreign enlistment act; and said that the Amen- caff government had always acted upon iU-principles when England was-at war.

He'further sought to impress upon the government and the people the obligations they were under to net toward the American government, as it had always acted toward them, in a spirit of good faith and honorable neutrality, and maintained that, as the Alabama had been equipped and manned in England, she ougbf. to be seiz ed as a warning ngain.st the fitting; out of similar vessels in future. There were other speeches, fierce and de nunciatory in their character, which dis played the prejudice and hate will which a certain party in England lool upon everything American. Proraincn among these was the speech of Roebuck who entered upon his public career as a lib eral, but is said to have been bought up bj the lories, and since then, as is usually thi case with such men, he line been the mos violent of all the tories in his denuncia lions of everything liberal, both at horn abroad, and, it is said that he has frc quently given utterance to such cxtremi views as to disgust even the men who have made him their tool. On this ocen slon he was particularly severe, and indulged in the fiercest land of denunciations of our people nml ilie course of oui aeir Dl'ice in 1 of beads sold from a dollar to wo a nda half, their beautv and the cupidity owner.

A juvenile papoose venturing near. he-edge-of tlie bank, lumWed--headlong nto the river, and appeared to be some-, vhat astonished as be was floundering the wnter.

His -sprang down he bank and into the river with a yell, and brought the puffing youngsser to the shore at the rate-of-doublo-quick. As l)is clothing was so scant that one would nat-. urally suppose that be had prepared him self for a bath, no further damage than a wet scare ensued: government, can people lie pronounced the Amcri- not only unfit fur self-government', but unfit for the i-omtcsief and community of the civilized world," urged upon the government (hr importance of pursuing fuch course as would "strikethe hearts of the insolent people who govern America," in order that the dignity, honor ami commerce of England might'be saved from the "sneering mso lencoofan upstart race." This speed was received with applause from the extremists, and with the ridicule which it deserved from the liberal party. How different this speech from Gulden's 1 'J lie former was the utterance of high-minded, liberal statei-mmi, one who while jealous of the honor of his country has the manliness to accord to other na tions their rights the latter is the utter ancc of a narrow-minded, partisan zealo the purchased tool of an intolerant aris tocracy We are glad however to see that, not withstanding the fierce acclamation this blatant bigot, nnd the warlike ccun- cils of the Times, the government has not vet been urged to any ntbh nut, or to making any insolent demand, and we art encouraged to believe, that if our government pursues a deliberate, firm, and lion orable course, we shall havo no serious trouble with England. ie ground, many purchases were made thosB who wished to preserve some at- etrinketa, lest they should forget that At 4 p.

M. the order to pack up was given and there was a scattering, the squaws and children folded their tents like the Arab or some other ro.in. and packing up their household goods, carried them on board, while the braves sat laughing nnd smoking. This occupied ncarl nearly two hours, when they were taken on board, and counted as they walked the staging. Dogs and cats com prised no small part of tbe baggage, nnd many cases the pappooses carried them upon their backs as the squaws carry tac children.

Two of the women were nearly white, and one of them is the wife of Frenchman who is in the army. 15 favored with oultaoie to their complexion. Indians proper were located on the boiler deck, with the priviledgc of occupying out doors on ine hurricane dick. A riTENOMENON. As the Indians were packing up we noticed a blanket lying on? the ground, which teemed to have been overlooked.

The blanket, however, soon gave indita- lioiisof life, and lifter three or four kicks, ii roll and a tumble, the papoose made its bewildered appearance, a string oi heads around its neck, summer costume. A s-quaw soon discovered shi 1 hull rtoinulliii-g which vory nuu-li resembled llic phenoincnon. nnd it wiis iK-cbrdingly providtd fur. TIIV: MKN IN CHARGE. The removal of the Indians is superintended by Major Hatch, uas tiila-n so have it done in a suitable manner.

Ample supplies for their journey were provided bv Mr. C. K. Wir.ni and from the quantity of bread, meat, and other taken on board, there is no fear of their suffering. Martha! Cleveland will accompany this boat load to their new reservation.

WHEN THEY LEAVE. Boats have gone up for Wiiine-shiek's band, and they will be brought in by force if neces.ary. They number seven or eight hundred. The ten bands firnt mentioned are all that go down on the Canada. Those that were brought by the Favorite, and the ones yet to conic will be sent by the Davenport.

The uteamer Canada left the levee at o'clock yesterday morning bound fur tin- fort, where plentiful supply of Winnc- bagoes were awaiting Owing to the non-arrival of the guard designed to awompany them down the. river, which had been ordered from Le rieuer, we lay at the fort (luring the entire day, and consequently were enabled tc make iiome Indian observations. Ten bands of Indians' arrived' from Mankato on Monday night, and we found them encamped on the flat below the fori, near the original Sioux Some of them luxuriated in. Sibley and other iityles of canvass tents, but for UK- most part they dwelt in houses made with hands composed of rusb m'ttting laid upon These band- in the aggregate t-even hundred.

The only nobility we could discover consisted oi 'hull dressed bodies with ugly, devilish hideously daubed with paint. EMPLOYMENT AND As usual, the squaws were occupied with housework, washing, cooking, while the men and boys participated in various kinds of amusements, a. large number being industriously engaged in df Jig nothing. The "moccasin game" as it called, wag their favorite occasionally a deck of cards would be called into requisition to while away the hours, We saw none of the devotional exercises for which the Sioux arc so celebrated, and fear that (hex- were not able to bring their servation.

PLEASANT MKMRNTOKS. Near the center ot the encampment they had placed a young sapling and fastened to thin the kefip-sakcB that had been captured from the Sioux who were murdered by them last week.

His left arm bas been amputated above the elbow a bullet has passed through his right hand. Hi-s condition is now, we learn, as favorable as could possibly be expected and he 'will doubtless recover, and is not, we trust, lost to active service.

She, with her consort, the Neosho, which will follow her next week, were designed for service on the shoal rivers of the South and West and are not expected to withstand the heaviest ordnance of the rebels.

Oi AGAIN THKEATE.V KD MOUNDSVILLE, May Sat urdav evening General Kelley, at Graf ton, received a despatch from Ui.rry, oinmanding at Wheeling, stating that Rebel cavalry were within 41 milis of that and asking tha MouinUvilic, on the Ohio river, twelvi be'ow Wheeling, be suitable force. General Kelly immediately orderec Colonel five companies oi the Twenty-third Illinois (Mulligan'sj Irish Brigade,) Lieutenant Colone Quirk, and five companies of the One- New "fork Eegiment, under command of Lieutenant Colone' Fred. E.

Etcbick, and three pieces ol artillery, to proceed to Moundville. The troops embarked at once, and would have been at Moundsville four hour: except for the obstacle of the burned bridge at Fairrnount. This delayed the troops six hours, the artillery having to be unshipped, with the horses, and marched around five miles above the bridge. Overcoming these obstacles, the troops re-embarked on board the train and reached here at noon yesterday, much.to the relief of the citizens, who greeted Colonel Mulligan and his troops enthusiastically. The citizens of this town very much alarmed, and many of them removed their horses and store goods across the river into there are verv few horses left in this county.

The citizens of Wheeling, too, were considerably exercised in mind; but without any real cause, as I believe, for we have yet, discovered any rebels within fifty miles of their city. Sty impression is that the party of raider's who threatened Wheeling, did merely 4o cover tbeir real intention, which to retreat as fast as passible through the mountains to their rendezvous. I may be mistaken, but verily believe the raid is- overhand we will not hear more of the rebels until they get rca'dy to make another, after the next harvest is gathered. Ganeral Kelley is'after them with, a sharp stick, and'had we more cavalry we. imlulge the hope that a large of bnt as the -m06t of our force' is infantry, the most they can do" will be to drive -the rebels before them, and wlen 'once they get-them on the -other- side of mountain passes the best they can will be to try and keep tkem there.

'ANCIEKT COPPERHEADS." Bth'mBt-, has claiming that WAS a Copperhead in war, beieanse of sjsai contains the speoStea'of time ol the last war with England, showing that there was erce and determinerfcopposhinn -ta that var. The object of the. article seems to to show that copperheadism is not a ew phenomenon, and while it is not jus- ifiable time; much-less an of- ence now than at the times One reaspn the author gives for -this opin- on is, that now we are fighting a domestic oe, whereas, in the other the foe was a foreign one. We dge the pertinence of this reason; for an nemy.tathe goyernment is not the an enemy because he is found a subject of hat government': it should rather increase he magnitude of his guilt, that he -has nrned'igainst'that which has afforded lim protection. We take opposite ground from the edi- (be 'Post, and say there were many hings'to escuse opposition to the last war with England and the Mexican war, which.cannot be found now particularly this the.case in regard to the Mexican war.

That war not forced upon us as this has existence of the government was not in peril as it is now that war could have been avoided withou the sacrifice of our national honor. This waa not the case in the beginning of the present war; for the rebels forced this war upon us, not only by commencing hostilities, bnt by refusing every compromise which should not acknowledge tliei independence. Waa there anything paral lei to this in the case of the Mexican war or the last war with Eugland Tia trui in the latter case, England made demand; which it was incompatible with our na tional honor to yield, but the dismember ment of our nation was not threatened we were not. summoned to yield assen to a principle, -which struck directly at thi existence o' the.government. Wo do no wish to be understood as upholding the fierce opposition which was then made but we do say that the assertion that thi opposition to the present war is rnorj excusable than that, is most preposterous.

There is another thing in the articl above referred to, which is unjust, am that is the classing of Clay and the othe: opposera of the Mexican -war with thi Copperheads of the present time. To thin! of Ben. and Ferruindo Wood, elidomn genus, being classed with Clay migh well excite one's laughter -were it not fo the insult which it offers to the memory a great man. Clay was always alive the honor nnd welfare of his country, bu whoever supposed the Woods and the! ilk were, affected with a love of countri or that their opposition to the present wa cornea from a pure desire for her pros perity There is a vast difference between th Copperheads of the present time and Cla and his compeers in their latter, while they opposed the measures the administration, had no soft words fo those sympathized with the enemies of the government.

Harris light Cava'ry. DBAH FATHER I have been -to Richmond. You. may be astonished when I say this, and may suppose I have been lere as a prisoner. Such, however, is not ae case.

After hearing the facts yon will agree with me when I say that this regiment has accomplished the most succesa- ul raid since the rebellion. "You will also allow that it far disastrous consequences to the enemy be raid of the rebel Stuart, into Undoubtedly, you are aware tbat he cavalry corps of Gen. Stoneman cross- the RapfjaLannock on the 29th. We were included in that corps. After crosa- ng vie marched with the main body two On the third day we left them ant out alone.

After marching all day and night ws came upon a town called Louisa Courl House. This we charged upon at day ight, and took without opposition. We are the first Yankee soldiers that ever ap- leared in that town. We stayed there me day, destroying rebel government storeaj telegraphs and railroad There was not a Union man in the place We were told that we should hear from Stuart, but he cautiously kept at a respect ful distance. After leaving this place on Sunday evening, May 3d, we marched al night in the direction of Richmond with out meeting any rebels.

On Monda; morning, at nine o'clock, we were withii three miles of Richmond, and inside some of the eartli works, without men or guns. Here proceeded to burn bridges on three defter ent raileoads leading in a north and wes terry direction from the city. We also destroyed the telegraph con- municatin': with their western uriny. Re member all this was done in broad light and within of their enure spires. burning about a bridges, and taking all the horses could we took our departure.

Ha ing no map in my possession, I do no know where these railroads lead to, bt am satisfied one of them WHS the Freder icksburg road. If we had had our othe two regiments (the brigade) we shoul have marched into the city, but our colone thought we had accomplished enougl and did not like to incur the risk of try ing it alone. You may be surprised that we met rebels. So was and can account for i only upon the supposition that they ha left Richmond and the vicinity to reii force their army ot Fredericksburg am Vicksburg. They knew very well tha we had no force near Richmond, and th idea of a single regiment appearing nea their stronghold was not in their pro- gramme, which accounts for their leavin the place wholly unguarded.

During th march we did not meet a half dozen reb els together. We took every horse could find on both sides of the roac nearly three hundred in all. We brough back very few of the horses we with, having worn them out. The horse I rode is Rid mond; I left him in exchange for a fres one. We captured and paroled a fi prisoners who were home, on About one hundred and fifty negroes fo lowed us back, and many more were le crying on (he road because we could no mount them and bring them along.

A great many of the negroes came to mounted on their masters' horses. We burned several buildings contaii ing rebel stores and clothing, capture and destroyed about forty army wajron loaded with bacon and wheat. Thes wagons had been scouring the countr and pressing these provisions. worth $1.25 per. pound.

When we cooke our ham we had to salt it--thus provin the scarcity of salt in the We passed very rsadily for rebel cavalrj When asked what cavalry, we replied th First Virginia. This was before we go to Richmond. Passing the farm-housei tbe women would come out and run dow the lane towards the road, taking us fo rebels. They would wave their handker chiefs and smile their brightest. Su when they found out who we were, they laughed the other way.some of them fainting, and others hiding their faces in their aprons and screaming, thus showing their hatred of the Yankees.

You will comprehend the magnitude of the undertaking and its consequences to the enemy. It ia conceded to be the biggest thing of the war. The loss of the rebels in the destruction of bridges, locomotives and stores, may be counted by millions. The country through which we passed was largely engaged in the raising of grain. Taking their horses from them leaves the farmers helpless.

This march has been very severe on the men and horses, frequently riding all day and night witlioutstopping or eating. We had plenty to eat, but no time to cook it. We have at last arrived at Yorktown, where we have been well received. This place is well fortified. Our officers give us great credit for our patience and endurance.

GES. L.KE HI! SLAVES. THE SIERCIKS OF THE WICKED. The following extract from a private tter written by a young man connected with the Army ot the Potomac to his iither in Massachusetts, mid published the Boston Journal, gives some facts concerning the rebel General Lee and his reatmenl of his slaves, which forcibly illustrate the brutalizing effects of slavery. The letter is dated Port Albany, Virginia, April 16 Somo time ago I called on one oi General Leer's old slaves, to 'find out what I conM.of that, highly praised man.

I am going to ECO him again when an opportunity presents itself. Tou know General is considered unadulterated F. F. He was the superlative of tha upper tendom of aristocratic and presumptuous Virginia. This slave, now a man, and a Christian man too, is very old anil unable to consequently ho.

was left on the estate. Of course he is extremely ignorant, but nevertheless he is quite intelligent, and can tell it straightforward story na ck-arly as any one. General Lee was more dreaded by his slaves than were any of his overseers. His estate was immense. At Arlington he owned (through his wife) seven hundred acres in one lot, eleven hundred in another, and other large tracts in the Sinte.

He hnd four hundred slaves riMit here how many more elsewhere I ilon't know. Thus you see his possessions were very and being so near Washington, Georgetown -and Alexandria, vjiry valuable, lie had carriages, plate, and all the equippage of a proud Virginian aristocrat, lie wag almost worshipped' by the gay, the haughty, the renowned- and" the gifted. His position was envied, his name honored. This slave had it score of sons and daughters. One by one they were torn from him, until now, in his helpless old but ore son and two daughters remain.

One daughter and the son were too young to be carried away; the other daughter waa too smart to be. entrapped. It was really affecting to hear this old man tell his wrongs and bis anguish at parting wilh his loved ones. He knew they would have to be sold he said, but they were my. children and I couldn't help loving Some were seized in his presence, and sold before his face; others were meanly stolen at night and hurried off ithout a good-bye blessing.

One the slaves had been worked unusually hard. It had rained furiously all day, (nnd I know what a Virginia rain is,) and at evening tbey returned to their huts, wet, wearj and hungry. This family had nothing to they had been at work al! day, and couldn't prepare anything, and two of the boys went to the brook to catch a few fish. It was dark, but they were seen and reported. The aristocratic General Lee ordered to be whipped at a certain hour the next day.

All the slaves were assembled to see the flogging. Four boys and a girl were to be flogged. 'It waa done in that and he pointed out the desecrated building. The overseer lashed away at the bays till their backs were raw and bleeding. Next.

came the girl; her back wns stripped and her hands tied so that her feet could just touch the floor. The overseer gazed at the tortured form and hesitated. Lee ordered him to flog her. 'I can't do was the reply. Again he ordered, and again the overseer replied, 'Master, I can't whip a Lee snatched the whip and with his own hands flogged a helpless woman, which his overseer had the manliness not to do.

As I heard this black man tell these stories I felt what 1 cannot express. My heart throbbed with indignation and my body trembled with passion. Oh, how I wanted the power to avenge this man'a foul wrongs! Because he was black he suffered cruelties which we would not allow a dog to suflei'. I tho't of our own loved family. What if I were crnel'y whipped for getting food for a half starved mother What if my sisters were rudely snatched away and sold to brutal men What if my father were trampled under foot as a chattel and not a word of intercession permitted And I thought, too, of a righteous God beholding all these thinga, and how long He would allow this wickedness.

I prayed as never before for the slave, and, trusting my faith to Him whcsa ways are so mysterious, I consecrated myselt to His and my country's sacred cause of liberty and righteousness. My dependence ia in Him, and I cannot, I will not, believe He will allow the oppressor to triumph. Some tell us at home, even, slavery is a 'Divine and blame us for speaking aught against it. I thank trad that 1 never thought so, and that I have seen enough never to think so. How a being can say that flagrant injustice, brutality and in- Luman barbarity are I cannot see.

He is a being but not a man. As for me, my is stronger than ever, and immovably fixe'd." We are being taught that we must 'let my children 50'; and I were unworthy a. mother's kiss, it father's blessing, a sister's tear or a brother's affection, did I not use every or enforce the lesson. After Lea had lacerated the girl's body bathed the yet bleeding wounds in Now that hand is raised against his country." SCHOOLS FOR FHEEDJIE.V.—There are two schools for freedmen at Fcrnandina, Florida, with an aggregate attendance of three hundred, both of which are in prosperous circumstances. The Peninsula newspaper, published at that place, says is astonishing, the proficiency which those ignorant people have made within four month-" during which the schools i.ive been in operation.

In cleanliness ind general deportment, in facility of acquisition, and in all, save perhaps apparel, they will compare favorably the common schools of the North."
