eality and truth? Is it doubtful? Quod sult perdere, Jupiter dementel. The brutality of the Federal commander in Baltimore — Despotic Acts in his department — treatment of the Confederate wounded. A Baltimore correspondent of the New York Times, under the caption "Are we a Christian People?" has a long review of the official conduct of Major General Schenck, commanding the department of Maryland. He says: No one has denied or attempted to palliate his course in regard to John Glenn, who was arrested on the merest suspicion and sent South without even being allowed a servant to lead him. Although forced to go to City Point he refused to take the oath of allegiance to the South, claiming that he was a citizen of the United States, and was, consequently, sent back to the tender mercies of General Schenck, who has not yet decided what further cruelties are in store for him. The case of the causeless turning out of doors of Col. Waring and his family is familiar to al

Additional from the North. From the latest Northern dates we make up a summary of additional items of interest: The attack on Mobile to Commence soon. A correspondent of the New York News, writing from New Orleans on the 13th ult., says: Mobile is going to be attacked in a formidable manner. Another corps of the army from Gen. Grant arrived here yesterday.--This corps numbers about 27,000 men, and, with the two divisions which came down a few days ago, united with the 6,000 escaped men of Gen. Banks's expedition, will make quite a respectable force of about 40,000 men. It is said that these armies are going to Mobile, via Pascagoula, while another and not less considerable army is going to operate from some other way, such as Pensacola, and in the rear of Mobile. It is reported that Gen. Sherman, seeing that he could not easily force his way through Johnston's army, has decided to take another road on foot, along the river, up to a certain distance, so as to f

e head of military punishment for persons arrested on suspicion? Gan we wonder that Mr. Mackenzie should send back word: "Schenck can put a bayonet through me at pleasure, but cannot force me to clean that area;" and can we wonder, knowing General Schenck, that this was followed by his separation from his family, and expulsion to the South?--Yet is there law or justice, or even decency, in this? But, perhaps, no case can compare in wanton malignity with that of the treatment of the Rev. Mr. Harrison, the father-in-law of the Rev. Dr. Hoge, and brother-in-law of the Rev. Dr. Backus, the well-known Union clergyman of a Presbyterian Church in Baltimore. This reverend gentleman pays large taxes on property in the United States; but upon being asked if he had property in Virginia, and answering in the affirmative, he was required to make out a list of it that it might be taxed also. On presenting it to the official he made the remark that it seemed rather hard that he should pay ta

ave not been slow to express. Time would fail to record one title of his deeds, which bring disgrace upon us as a people. Is the heaping of insult and indignity on every arrested person a part of our national programme? Take the case of Mr. Colin Mackenzie, the son of one of the first physicians of Baltimore. He was arrested on the suspicion of being about to raise a company to go South. Not a shadow of evidence could be found against him, yet he was kept in confinement by Gen. Schenck, and ordered to clean out the area in front of the Gilmore House, facing one of the most public squares of the city. Does this come under the head of military punishment for persons arrested on suspicion? Gan we wonder that Mr. Mackenzie should send back word: "Schenck can put a bayonet through me at pleasure, but cannot force me to clean that area;" and can we wonder, knowing General Schenck, that this was followed by his separation from his family, and expulsion to the South?--Yet is there law

After landing, quite a number escaped while on the way to the army in the cars. Dash and daring of the blockade Runners. A recent letter from an officer of the blockading squadron off Wilmington, N. C., states that two or three steamers had run into Wilmington each day for five days previous. One large steamer ran in at ten o'clock in the forenoon on the 17th inst. A few mornings since a steamer of fifteen hundred tons ran in. She was pierced for six guns, in addition to two pivot guns, and probably would receive an armament and be ready to proceed to sea within a week. She is larger than the Alabama or Florida, and appeared to be very fast. The writer thinks she may be the steamer known as the Southerner. The Siphon and the Minnesota were the only efficient vessels off the port, the Iroquois having left a week previous in chase of a blockade runn
