A Batter-cry from Baltimore.
--The Baltimore South publishes a spirited battle-song, of which the following is a taste:
For gold let Lincoln's legions fight, Or plunder's bloody gain; Unbribed, unbought, our swords we draw, To guard our rights, to save our law, Nor shall we strike in vaiz.

Ultimate Overthrow of Despotism.
It has been aptly remarked by a French writer that "Authority reigns ill when liberty suffers." The Lincoln Administration will soon, find the illustration of this truth in its attempt to gag the press and hold thought captive.
Liberty can be chained, as in Maryland, but it is always aiming to break its chains, and it always succeeds sooner or later, for its oppressors "struggle against the truth of things and the need of the times." The representative of spaper or a press in his dominions, nor a Congressman in the chamber which registers his edicts, except the bold and honest Vallandigham, has dared even to utter a lament over the grave of Liberty.
But the greatest Power, and Glory, even if Lincoln could achieve them, instead of defeat and disgrace, cannot make Liberty, though in her grave, forgotten.
Even Napoleon III.

Col. John Program.
--The stand made by this gallant officer at Rich Mountain, with 300 of his comrades, against Lincoln's hordes of vandal Yankees and Virginia tories, has been compared to that made by Leonidas and his brave followers against Xerxes and his Persian hordes at the pass of Thermopolæ. The Raleigh Register, edited by John WeSyme, says:
"Heroic conduct is what might have been expected from John Program.
Being a native of Petersburg, we have known him from infancy, and enjoyed a close intimacy with his late lamented father, Gen. James W. Program, Better and more chivalric blood than that of John Program never coursed through the veins of any man. Col. P's military education was effected at West Point, where he graduated with the first honors.
Since then he has traveled in Europe, where he had the finest opportunities of studying military affairs on the largest scale.
We earnestly hope that his captivity — which was purely accidental — will be of short duratio

When rogues fall out, &c.
--Our report from Washington in reference to the doings of Lincoln's Congress states that the House of Representatives, by a vote of eighty-one to forty-two, had passed a resolution to appoint a committee to investigate the Army and Navy contracts recently made by those paragons of virtue and honesty, Secretaries Cameron and Welles.
On all questions where the expenditure of money is concerned, the House was nearly unanimous, but when it comes to investigating the manner in which the money is spent, one-third of Lincoln's vassals have not courage to face the music.
A very reasonable supposition is that not a few of those who voted no on the resolutions, were deeply interested in some fat Government job, and did not like the idea of having their operations exposed to the gaze of an unfeeling world.
Messrs. Welles and Cameron who, while out of office, were a couple of the most disinterested patriots in the country, whose faces were constantly set as a
Mr. Vallandigham.
We know of no man on this continent who occupies a nobler position than Mr. Vallandigham, of Ohio.
In the midst of Lincoln's armed legions, and in the teeth of a subservient Congress, he hurls his denunciations with an unsparing hand at the executive usurper and his murderous party.
How the so-called "Conservatives" of the North, who could speak boldly enough for us in the days of peace, and deserted us to a man in the hour of trial, must blush for their baseness when they look upon the spectacle of moral grandeur which Vallandigham's course in Congress presents!
What a contrast to that mincing piece of affectation and pretension, that man of words, Edward Everett! Of all the great, heroic men of this continent, Vallandigham will go down to posterity unsurpassed, if equalled, by any other, a man worthy the greatest, most heroic day of Grecian or Roman fame.

Estray.
--A very large balloon was seen to pass over this city about 3½ o'clock yesterday evening.
It may have been the notorious "Professor Lowe," one of the ærial corps enlisted by Lincoln to aid in subduing the South.
If so, we advise the people wherever he touches terra firma to give him something to remember them by. As a spy, by the rules of war he deserves death.
He once started from Cincinnati and landed in South Carolina.--Balloons are given to the enactment of strange feats.
If it was the "professor," let him be used — and not in the easiest way, eithe
