The Chattanooga Rebel, spoaking of the course Mr. Vallandigham, should pursue, says: * The roads which leads up the steep ascent of tlie future is [for him] direct and gaslighted all the way. It leads first out of some Confed. erate port to Nassau, thence to Canada and finally into the. Gubernatorial chair of Ohio. The return of Napoleon from Elba was the signal for general reaction in France. Thousands flocked to him on the instant. Nothing v O could keep the ''little corporal," bars, nor iron? nor prisoners, nor island. He stood once more on his own -native heath, the superstition of the popular heart clung to him and he triumphed. Let Mr.Vallandigham's return be as speedy. Let the absence of single mouth find x him issuing an address to the people of bis State from Lower Canada proclaiming these things to them: . > "I a loyal citizen of the Union, and a soldier thereof and of freedom; banished against law and constitution; thrown contrary to my will across the lines of the public enemy; whose refusal to receive or recognize me establishes before all men my patriotism alfd my honor; I Clement L. Vallandigham, persecuted", exiled, revilfd and coerced by tyrants and by bayonets, but not dead nor dumb, issue these words and declare myself a canidate for Governor of Ohio.'1 The effect would be magical. Who would thereby be proven ti.iitor? Who? Certainly not Mr. Vallandigham. This is his true course and the result of months (intiv they not be too late!) will justify it. * Vkry Good for Bragg.?A short time ago General Rragg, who has the reputation of being a most rigid disciplinarian, received a dispatch from the friend of a furloughod soldier, urging an extension of his leave on the ground f that he had been married just one week. In reply, the General sent the following dispatch: "Dispatch received; furlough extended one month.. See Deuteronomy xx, verse 7, and xxiv, verse 5. B. B." On referring to the passages cited was found the following: "And what man is there that hath betrotTied a wife and hag not taken her? let him go and return unto his house lest he die in the battle and another man take her." "When?? man hath taken a now wife, he .shall not go out to war, neither shall he be charged with any bnisness, but he shall be free at home ono year; and shall cheer up his wife which he hath takeit." British Guard.?The British anhWts ro. siding in Mobile have formed a company^ known as the British Consular Guard, commanded by F. J. Milton, Captain, who have offered their services to the Mayor to aid in the preservation and good order of the city, in case of insurrretion, invasion, inundatibn, devastation by fire, and all other duties not inconsistent with foreigners retaining their original nationality. Another Yankee Raid Expected.?Refugees from Nashville inform the Atlanta Confederacy that General Mitchel is organizing a cavalry force of 20,000, for the purpose of making raids into Alabama and Georgia, and it was understood that Atlanta was to ' be the main point of attack. This was a general un dcrstanding a few days ago in Nashville. \ > . Tlae Views or Tallandlffhani. During his recent imprisonment in Ohio Mr ' Vallandigham published the following card: ] Military Prison, Cincinnati, O.,) May 6, 1863. ) C To the Democracy of Ohio: t 1 am here in a military bastile for no other offence than my political opinions, and the de- , "'fence of them, and of the rights of the people, ! and of your constitutional liberties. Speeches , made in the hearing of thousand of you in de- ^ nunciation of the usurpations of power, infrac- a tions of the Constitution and laws and Qf military despotism, were the sole cause of my arrest I and imprisonment. I am a l3einocrat-for Con1 stitution, for law, for Jhe Union, for liberty j this is my only crime. For no disobedience to q ' the Constitution: for no violation of law. for no I , ? c word, sign, or gestnro of symqathy with the t men of the South who are for disunion' and 8 Southern independence, but in obedience to their demand, as well as the demand of abolition disunionists and traitors, I am here in bonds to-day; but "Time, at last, sets nil things even!" Meanwhile, Democrats of Ohio, of the Northwest, of the Uuited States, be firm, be true 'to your principles, to the Constitution, to the Union, and all will yet bo well. As for myself, I adhere to every principle, and will make good, though imprisonment and life itself, every pledge and declaration which I have ever made, uttered, or mnintiancd from the begining. To you, to the whole people, to time, agaifi appeal. Stand firm! Falter not art Instan't! . C. L. Yallandigham. s Since his arrival within the Southern lines, t the following statement, evidently from his pen, has been made public by an agent of the As- \ sociatcd Press: * Mr. Yallandigham comes, upon compulsion, j : and against his consent, to the Confederate [ j lines, and is received as a citizen of Ohio and c of the United Statos in exile banished from his 1 country for no offence except love of constitu- d tional liberty and the true principles of his JGovernment. Having been forcibly denied c protection in the United States,'he is obliged to seek it from the Confederate States. a Whilst, as an exile, he is confident of kind * i: treatment and consideration from a generous and hospitable people, he desires to avoid all public appearance or demonstration, and to live in some retired place as a private gentlemen a ; fully sensible that as an "alien enemy," his res! idcncpin the Confederacy is solely by the generous consent of the Government and people* till he can return safely to his. home. He is confident liis character is well enongh known to satisfy every one that he is incapablo of any word or act, either here, or on* his return to Ohio, inconsistent with the relations which he thus sustains towards the South during his so journ among us. . 4 A Queer Story.?We find the following statement in a Northern papers: "The pilot of the iron-clad Keokuk passed through Phila- ] delphia recently under arrest. In order that F the Confederates migfct capture her, he ran the 0 vessel upon Morris' Island. He is the 6ame n j man who piloted Mason and Slidell through ? the blockade." ? o p Bragg Again in Full Command.?The Till- ^ lahoroa correspondent of the Mobile Advertiser I and Register telegraphs from Tnllahoraa that J Gen. Bragg is again in full command of the Army of Tenncsee, General Johnston having been relieved from that Department, and ordered to the command in Mississippi. . The Federal authorities have again commenced a war on papers opposed to them? *1 forbidding their circulation?they do not like to have their deeds shown up. Like the evil _ one, they prefer darkness to light. New Lieutenant Generals.?The Rich- e mond papers mention a rumor that Generals ? Ewell and A. P. Sill have been appointed | Lieutenant Generals in the Confederate army. Tt Wanted?Wool! For which the highest price will bi paid. ? ALSO?
