Both Houses passed the bill giving Generals in command of Divisions, staffs one Assistant Adjutant-General, with the rank of Major one Inspector-General, with the rank of Major three Aids, with the rank of Captains, and making the senior officer in command of artillery the commander of all artillery in the division, and giving him a position on the staff of the General.

No Government can safely offer amnesty to rebels against its authority, after they have themselves begun open war, until the rebellion itself 13 subdued and rightful authority completely vindicated. That time has not yet been reached in our case.

All good men desire to see tranquility restored throughout our country, and hence are apt to conclude, that because the secession cause has now become hopeless all rational prospect of its success an end therefore the insurgents will be glad, upon invitation, to lay down their arms and return to their allegiance. But such is not the temper thus far manifested by the leaders of the revolt. They perceive, indeed, that their fortunes are terribly adverse, but they breathe nothing but threatenings and slaughter stilt. The loyalty of the people along the Tennessee river, displayed on the trip of our steamers to Florence, naturally led many to conclude that a similar disposition was prevalent throughout the South. There are no facts to warrant each general infer to be turned off with a flippant paragraph nor settled by a spread-eagle sentiment.

Let us consider it in the light of palpable facts. Suppose the State of South Carolina should next month desist in despair from further resistance to the arms of the United States, and sullenly permit the restoration of the Federal custom-house marts, and post-offices what then Of her population, one-half is known to be thoroughly, invincibly loyal the other implacably disloyal. Under the institutions and social system which generated thi3 atrocious rebellion, the loyal half are held to be the chattels personal trie mere conveniences of the disloyal. Suppose we go in for a reconstruction which flour belonging to the C-nifederates havfo been seized and stored here. A woolen mill, owned by a man named Divi.

which had been manufacturing Confederate clothes, was also seized, with considerable stock. Richard Washii.gtoTi, brother of the late John A. Washington, is now confined at Harper's Ferry. THE PASSAGE OF THE POTOMAC. In accordance with plans at present it is not advisable to explain, it was decided at Washington that an advance movement of the extreme right wing of the army, stationed at and near Sandy Hook and Frederick, under Gen.

Basks, should be made. Gen. McClel-lan visited the spot, and the details having been arranged, the early part of last week was chosen for the consumation. On Monday, Feb. 24th, a concentration of troops took place at Sandy Hook.

By a temporary structure thrown across the Potomac, several regiments, including that of Col. Geary, crossed to the opposite shore, and occupied Harper's Ferry. The pontoon bridge, on Wednesday and Thursday, was in continual use, and stood the test of the heaviest burdens. It was thrown across the river about three hundred yards above the piers of the railroad bridge destroyed by the rebels. It was about thirty feet in width, one-1 third of a mile in length, and consisted of truth as it was before God, broke the cunning devices of matured villainy to pieces like the potter's vessel.

The crossing continued until Saturday morning.

The scene at Sandy Hook, during the arrival of the troops, was almost indescribable. The freight-cars, for in these the soldiers were obliged to travel, were fitted up as well as circumstances would permit, with straw and wooden benches. The trains followed each other in quick succession, and generally brought complete regiments, with baggage and all the paraphernalia. These trains occupied every foot of the three tracks at the bas of the mountain opposite Harper's Ferry, extending in length nearly a mile towards Bal-imore. The army wagons, stationed at every neighboring spot were loaded fast as possible, and the drivers, whh yeU a crack of the whip, urgJ the animals down the steep roadway which led to the pontoon bridge.

To talk of anything like amnesty for the present is worse than idle.

What must be the confusion and chagrin of the Gasparins and Brights who have upheld our cause under circumstances in which simple prudence would have counseled reserve, if we should now transform this slander of our enemies into a blasting truth?

Is there any rational ground for hoping that the Lincoln hirelings who venture to accept post-offices, collectorships, in 1863, will not be treated as they were in 1861? Men who believe in the Union and the principles it embodies the hour of danger is not past it is just before us A reconstruction on a Pro-Slavery basis will be a virtual triumph of the rebellion. It will enable the rebels to regain by craft all that they have lost by violence. It will secure to treason the just rewards of loyalty and truth.

Of this bridge the western span is complete. On Saturday morning, the employees of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, under the protection of the military, commenced the reconstruction of the remaining three spans. The piers have not been injured, but are as good as on the day upon which they were built. Several weeks will be required before the work will be advanced sufficiently to allow the passage of the trains. In the movement through Harper's Ferry, many of the United States officers met with a hospitable reception from citizens whom they had previously met at Frederick.

None of the regiments halted for a sufficient length of time, however, to receive many courtesies, but advanced by the road leading southwest, to Winchester. Reconnoisances were made by the car-airy companies before he infantry reached Charlestown, but no enemy appeared, and not a shot was fired. Shortly after the occupation of Charles-town, Gen. McClellan and staff made their appearance, being greeted by the soldiers with the most vociferous cheers and the greatest enthusiasm The party extended their trip beyond the town. Very few of the residents remained, not more than a half dozen males being visible, although women and children were more abundant, showing the enemy had faith in our willingness to protect non-combatants.

It is not believed that the rebels will make a stand at Winchester. About seventy-five miles from Baltimore, on the line of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and on the north bank of the Potomac River, is Berlin. It is a small scattered settlement of no particular importance. While passing this place on Friday morning last, a train was shelled by the rebels. About two hours after this occurrence the regular passenger train from Baltimore to Harper's Ferry passed along, proceeding cautiously, and making no halt at Berlin.

No signs of the rebels were apparent, and there is no probability that the ma-noeuver will be repeated. The river at the point where this incident occurred is about one-third of a mile in width, with a rapid current. Gen. McClellan was at Harper's Ferry when the news of the attack was forwarded. A regiment was immediately ordered back to guard the railroad, aad left in a special train.

The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company have now all their road in use, except forty-two miles between Hancock and Harper's Ferry. Gen. Banks now occupies the country around Harper's Ferry, Charlestown and Martinsburgb. No traces of the enemy in any force to speak of have been discovered in his vicinity by his scouts. Nevertheless, we feel certain that the division of the rebel Generals Jackson and Kir by Smith are in position, extending from Winchester for some miles back in the direction of Strausburg, the northern terminus of the Manassas Gap Railroad.

The pickets continue to bring in prisoners. Among those taken was the Rev. T. J. McVeigh, Chaplain of 2d Virginia Infantry.

Never sit down and brood to the efforts being made by the citizens of the copper mining district of Lake Superior to direct public attention to, the enemy.
