The Fourth of July. The Yankee Congress, a week or two ago, objected to adjourning, because McClellan would probably be in Richmond by the Fourth of July, and they wished to be in readiness to enact any legislation which that event might require. They are a grand people for dramatic effects. On the last Fourth of July there was to have been, according to the orders of that magnificent ass, Abraham Lincoln, and a flaming programme in the New York Herald, a general, combined, simultaneous march of the universal Yankee columns, East and West, upon the strongholds of the Southern Rebellion, which were to be chewed up and exterminated without farther delay. But the North was not able to celebrate its Fourth of July in this manner, and the South put off its celebration till the Twenty-first! It will hardly be able to celebrate its next Fourth in Richmond. What it wants to celebrate it for at all, having sacrificed all the principles which it was designed to commemorate, is beyo
Tribulations of the Yankee Press. --The Baltimore News Sheet, noticing the arrest of Charles C. Fulton, Agent of the Associated Press and editor of the Baltimore American, says: Of the condition of affairs in regard to the army of the Potomac, even if it were known to us, it would be manifestly impolitic to speak. President Lincoln has admonished us, in his little way-side speech at Jersey City, that --Secretary Stanton holds a tight rein over the Press," and we have had, still more recently, a local illustration of the same important fact in the arrest and imprisonment of the editor and proprietor of the Baltimore American, who has been wounded in the house of his friends for having "done that which he ought to have done." in what particular this, the humblest servant of the Government, hag offended, we are not informed; but we are quite sure that the error which led to his introduction to the Provost Marshal is not to be found in the telegram to the New York Press annou
nd was brevetted Major; and at Chapellepec, he again attracted attention by his gallant and meritorious conduct, and was brevetted Lieutenant-Colonel. At the close of the war with Mexico he withdrew from the service, and soon afterward emigrated to California. The outbreak of the rebellion found him there, and he was one of the first of the old West Pointers who offered his services to the Government. He was one of the first batch of Brigadier-Generals of volunteers appointed by President Lincoln on 17th May, 1861; and was, on his arrival, placed in command of a brigade of the army of the Potomac, and subsequently of a division. From July, 1861. to February, 1862. he was stationed in Southern Maryland, on the north shore of the Potomac, his duty being to prevent the rebels crossing the river, and to amuse them with their river stockade while McClellan was getting his army into trim. This difficult duty he performed admirably. Maj. Gen. John Pope. Major-Gen. John Pope
