We publish this morning another triple sheet— the third that we have issued this week, all of Which have been necessitated by the great and Constantly increasing pressure upon our space of @dvertisements. There can be no more satis- factory evidence of the vast resources of the North, and of the irrepresajble energies of its people, than a fact of this sort, taken in conjunction with the generally busy as- pect of our city. It shows that, although we are in the midst of a civil war of gigantic proportions, the means and courage of our people are but litile affected by it. It is true that this large increase in onr advce- isements is in a measure owing to the more earefal discrimination exercised by the business Community in the distribution of their patronage. The mean and dishonest efforts made by one of bur rivals (the Tribune) to divert to its own oolamns the favor we have enjoyed, by sending Ciroulars to the addresses of those who adver- Rise with as, falsely estimating our present cir- “pulation at what it was fourteen years ago, have belped to augment, instead of diminish, that branch of our business. Certainly, at no former period bave our advertising columns been crowded to the same extent a3 at present. The fact proves that the course taken by the ararp in supporting the government in ita efforts }o put down the rebellion and vindicate the consti- bation is approved, not merely by the political fentiment of the North, but by the commercial and portion of the community. It is to this jineas of political purpose and devotion to the pest intdragte of the country that we owe our pre- Sent enormous cirdnistion, exceeding that of all he other city dailies put together. It is to the prevailing amongst the mercantile com- that that circulation is a genuine one, and serves their objects, that we are indebted for 6 large corresponding increase im their busi- pees favors. aie THE SITUATION. An advance was made by the centre of our ‘army of the Potomac on Thursday upon the febels ten thousand strong, on the road be- i the Werrenton Junction, driving them miles towards Gordonsville. The bridges pad tracks on the railroad were all destroyed ‘end torn up, bat our troops were pursuing the ‘Qnomy as rapidly 28 circumstances will permit. + A portion of the First New Jersey cavalry, un- Per Volonel Wyndham, had a skirmish with the re- ii atk onteaertiaeanelans A few shots were fired on both sides without fajory.

A balloon reconnoissance resulted in'the discovery that the shells from our mortars had fallen beyond the enemy's batteries, the elovation of the mortars being too high. This, howover, will at once be remedied. The rebels still continue to make occasional de- monstrations on the Lower Potomac. On Monday last two boats orews from the Yankee landed at Shipping Point to remove the guns left by the rebels; but while so engaged @ squadron of rebel cavalry, numbering 1,500 men, made their appear- ance on the hill, and our men pulled off after securing two guns—one a nine-inch Dahlgren, and the other a long thirty-two-pounder. The Yankee fell out into the stream on the appearance of the enemy and turned her guns upon them; but they retired and kept out of range. In addition to these guns the Yankee secured one hundred and sixty nine-inch shells, loaded, and four hundred six-inch shells, unloaded, which were taken from the rebel batteries. At Evansport the rebels have left the eawmill untouched, and thore is sufficient timber at the mill to make quarters for several thousand men. We give to-day a map of the new seat of mili- tary operations; showing the movements going on in the Southwest, the strategical points at Corinth, Mississi and Decatur, Alabama, where the rebel |, Johnstoa and Beauregard, are con- cent ‘forces. Another map which we also give in another colamn will show clearly the route taken by the Nashville when she made her escape from Beau- fort, and the positions at that time held by the federal vessels. There are three channels to guard, and on this occasion but two vessels—the Cambridge and Gemsbok, the latter a sailing ves- sel—were there to perform the duty. The extreme distance between the mouths of the three channels is five miles. The Swask ohannel (by which the Nashville so successfully entered the harbor) ran the distance of only a third of a mile, when it connected with the main ship channel, whose mouth was at another point a few miles distant. “ The Gemsbok lay as near as she could, so as not to be in the range of Fort Macon, which is situated on Bogue Bank. The fort was not evacuated at last advices—viz: March 24, five P.M. The Bogue and Shackleford banks are sandy, and the main land is plainly visible over and beyond them. The depot wharf and buildings are situated on the swampy low land; the Bogue banks, however, somewhat hide the view from the sea. The shoal grounds outside the three channels (or seaward) do not dry at low water, but are covered in the calmest weather with breakers along the whole extent. CONGRESS. In theeSenate yesterday, a bill to prevent the allowance of pensions to widows and children of Revolutionary soldiers, unless their claims are es- tablished, was passed. Mr. Wright, of Indiana, introduced another bill providing for the abolition of slavery in the District of Columbia. A motion to take up the resolution declaring that no more brigadier generals shall be appointed, unless for gallantry in action, led to a discussion, in which it was stated that there are a less number of officers in the present army, in proportion, than we had in the Mexican or Revolutionary war. The motion was disagreed to. The Naval Appropriation bill was then taken up, the question being on an amendment appropriating $783,294 for the com- pletion of the Stevens floating battery, which was adopted, with the condifion that Mr. Stevens shall not be repaid the money he has expended on the battery unless she prove successful, and also that the appropriation is not to be used unleas the Se- erctary of the Navy is of the opinion that it will secure to the public service an efficient steam battery. An amendment appropriating $13,000,000 for the construction of iron-clad vessels of war was adopted; also an amendment appropriating $250,000 for casting heavy ordnance at the Wash- ington Navy Yard. The bill was then passed, and the Senate adjourned. in the House of Representatives, the Naval Com- mittee reported a joint resolution of thanks to Captain John Ericsson, for the enterprise, skill, energy and tact, displayed by him in constructing the iron-clad steamer Monitor, and the great ser- vice rendered by her to the country recently in Hampton Roads. The resolution was adopted. In auswer to an inquiry, the Chairman of the Com- mitice on Invalid Pensions stated that a bill had already been reported providing pensions on ac- connt of deceased officers and soldiers of the pre- sent.war. The consideration of the Bax’bill was then resumed in Committee of the Whole. Both houses adjourned till Mondey. MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. In the Senate of our State Legislature yesterday, the bills amending the general manufacturing laws and correcting errors in the Brooklyn tax asaesa- mente, together with others of little interest: to our readers, received favorable reports. to correct abuses in the relaying of pavements in this city was ordered to a third reading. Several The bill bills were passed. Among thom were those providing means to pay for the canal enlarge- ments epd amending the Revised Statutes relative to jurors and justices’ courts. The others were mostly of a private nature. Notice was given of a bill to encourage investments in small amounts by the people in State stocks. A commmnieation was received from the New York Excise Commissioners. It reports nearly’ one thousand licenses granted, and $22,000 received therefor. In the Assembly, the Metropolitan Health bill came up, as the @pecial order, in Com- mittee’of- the Whole, and the debate on it oocupied the greater part of the session. Progress was finally reported, and it wee made the special order again for to-day. A report was received from the State Engineer giving en estimate of the expenses of the proposed enlargement of the Champlain Ganal in order to admit the passage of gunboate. To enlarge it safficiently to make it navigable by gunboats of one hundred and fifty feet in length would, he says, cost $3,770,190. The report urges the importance and practicability of the measure. In the evening session the Assess- ment bill was under consideration, and, after a long debate, progress was reported, and ft was referred to @ select committee of nine, with in- stractions to provide that mortgages on land shall be assessed and the amount of tax be repaid by the mortgagee. In 1790 New York was the fifth State in the Union in point of populati nd not until 1820 did she take her position at the head of the column, and assume the title of ‘the ‘Empire State.” She has now nearly one million more inhabitants than the next in size, and three millions seven hundred and seventy-three thousand more than the smallest. General Cartis will soon be after Price and Van Dorn again ip Arkansas. The rebels have madea haleabout twenty miles southwest of Bentonville, where they are tryin to bloct the ronda by felling trees. General Curtis bas made his heag- quarters at Bentonville, and has issued a procla- mation announcing that he will give sustenance to ‘all who are needy, and admonishing the traitors to lay down their arms or leave the State. One hun- dred and twenty wagon loads of flour, meal, sugar, collve, &c., reached Bentonville on the 13th and 14th inst. Ninety-seven oontrabands arrived in Philadet- phia yesterday morning, and were received at the volunteer refreshment saloon. They are of both sexes, and of all ages. One bright old aunty aays she is over one hundred years old, and has had twenty-one children. As soon as their arrival be- came known crowds congregated to see them, and some vory ludicrous scenes were enacted. The Qbolitionista have taken them in hand, and it is reported that many of them have already been employed as servants. They came principally from Harper's Ferry, where they were engaged upon the bridges. - Over four thousand rebel prisouers are to be released from Camp Douglas, Ill., and two thou- sand five hundred from Camp Morton, Ind. They will awear to support in future the Stars and Stripes. The following named five States have a double headed government—some roving and others sta- téonary:— Kentucky. Beriah Magoffin, ORY. sc sereeecenere W. Johnson. y The Montreal Gazette says that it has information that the reoonnoissance party aent out last weok by General McClellan was so cut up that those who returned were in a State of disorganization. The following result shows the manner in which they were “out up,’’the figures being taken from the Union official reports aud the rebel accounts:— Killed. Wounded. Union loss. 7 8 Rebel loss. a 180 Two of the proprietors of the Nashville Patriot, who were rather slow on the foot, did not succeed in getting away when Governor Harris absconded, and they therefore concluded to continue the pub- lication of the paper; but when the poor fellows were informed by Governor Johnson that they would not be allowed to abuse the government and foster the rebellion they retired from the establishment in disgust, and left the paper in the hands of the printors, who exhibited considerable more sense and discretion. Mr. L. D. Rouell, of Empire City, Colorado Ter- ritory, denies the statement that some time ago appeared in the Times of this city, that the ma- jority of the inhabitants of that Territory are secéssionista. He says that a more loyal or Union loving people cannot be found in any of the North orn States. Mrs. Catharine Brown Hopkins claims a divorce before the courts of Harrisburg, Pa., from her hus- band, St. George Henry Hopkins, on the ground that he is disloyal and in the rebel army. Tho citizens of Montgomery county, Ind., have procured a sword to be presented to General Lew. Wallace for his gallantry at Fort Donelson. Bushwhackera, guerillas and jayhawkers, with commissions from the rebel General Sterling Price, continue to prowl about Missouri, committing every depredation upon the Union citizens of that State known to criminal law. General Halleck will, however, soon cut short their movements. Governor Hamilton R. Gamble, of Missouri, has returned to the State, and resumed the dutics of his office. Indications for a large crop of peaches the coming season are prominent in New Jersey, Penn- sylvania and Delaware, Wall street was dull again yostorday, chiefly in conse. quence of the absence of news from the army. Stocks closed at a decline of 34 a 14 from the day previous. Very little business wae done in exchange for the steamer: bankers’ rates 111% a 112, Gold was unchanged in price. Money steady at last quotations. The first batch: of the new legal tender Treasury notes was forwarded to Washington by the National Bank Note Company. ‘The cotton market was firm yesterday, while the sales embraced about 700 2 890 bales, chiefly to spiuners, closing with buoyancy on the basis of 2%. for widdting uplands, Flour was in moderate demand, chiefly to the home tri common and medbanr grades were about 5c. lower, while extra brands were sastained. Wheat was inactive, and sales confined to smalt lots, which afforded no @orrect criterion of prices, which were nominal for most Cevcriptions. Corn was activeat the reeent con- cession in prices; sales of Western mixed, im store, were made at 573{c., and delivered at 58c.a 50¢. Pork was heavy, but with rather more doing; sales of new mess made at $13 a $18 25, and new prime at $10 3734 a . Lard was active and firm. Sugars were steady and active, with sales of about 1,500 hhda. and 500 boxes. Coffee was quiet and nominal. Freigts were steady, with jount of engagements. The Restoration of Tennesseo—Im portant Proceedings in Nashville. In the absence, this morning, of any fresh in- telligence of stirring battles and decisive victories over the armed forces of the rebellion, we seize the opportunity to spread before our readers some of the very important proceedings at Nashville attending the advent and public reception im that city of Hon. Andrew Johnson. in the character of President Lincolu’s Military Provisional Governor of Tennessee. The appeal or proclamation of Governor Johnson to the people of the State will satisfy every intelligent Union loving reader. that in this appointment President Lincoln has indeed put “the right man in the right place.” The policy which the Governor announces as that which will guide bis provisional administration is eminently conservative and conciliatory. He admonishes the people of Tennessee that against the armed forces of this secession rebellion “the President of the United States was bound by his official oath to preserve, protect and defend the consti- tution, and charged by the law with the duty of suppressing insurrection and domestic vio- lence;” and, in order to re-establish the authori- ty of the federal government throughout the Union, Congress, assembling in extra session in July last, at the President’s call, promptly and zealously proceeded te strengthen the hands of the administration in the prosecution of this righteous war; but atthe same time, as Governor Johnson is careful to remind the Ten- nessee people, the two houses of Congress, with almost absolute unanimity, resolved “that this war is not waged on their part in any spirit of oppression, nor for any purpose of conquest or sabjugation, nor for the purpose of overthrow- ing or interfering with the rights or established institutions of these States, but to defend and maintain the supremacy of the constitution, and to e the Union, with all the dignity, equality and rights of the several States unim- ; and that as soon as these objects are accomplished the war ought to cease.” With this official chart before him, Governor Johnson takes the helm as Provisional Military Governor of his State, and very plainly tells what he proposes to do. He finds “most, if not all, the offices (within the State), both gtate and federal, vacated, either by actual aban- donment or by the aotion of the incumbents in attempting to subordinate their functions to a versive of her national allegiance.” He says, therefore, that he shall fill these offices tempo- rarily, “until the State shall be restored eo far to its accustomed quiet that the people can peaceably assemble at the ballot box and select agents of their own choice.” In other words, he adopts the sensible view of President Lincoln, that this rebellion has not carried any State out of the Union, but that in Tennessee, for in- stance, the federal authority has only been temporarily superseded by a rebellious conspi- racy, and that with the suppression of this con- spiracy therein the State, asa member of the Union, resumes its former position, without the necessity of any legislation whatsoever on the part of Congress. This is the doctrine of President Lincoln, aud itstands upon the impregnable ground of the constitution. Our radical abolition faction, however, do not like it. They prefer the theory of Mr. Senator Sumner—that a State in revolt against the general government has committed Selo de se, has destroyed itself, and has forfeited all its claims, even when recovered, to constitu- tional protection, and, when wrested from the rebellion, may*be rightfully governed by Con- gress with the absolute authority of the con- queror of a foreign territory. Hence Mr. Sumner's assumption that Congress may and ought to declare slavery abolished in our rebellious States, and ought to legislate for them as for States, by their acts of rebellion, remanded back to the condition of Territories, and ina crude and chaotic mass, without a vestige of political organization or of geo- graphical boundaries to distinguish one from another. Mr. Sumner plumes himself upon the fact that he derives this sweeping revolutionary theory from the peculiar views of John Quincy Adams. But the views of Mr. Adams on the sub- ject of Southern slavery and rebellion were too much embittered by his unpopularity in the South as a Presidential candidate to be on- titled to much consideration. After he left the White House he became the leader and the chosen apostle of the anti-slavery faction of Congress, and did more, perhaps, than any other man of his time to foment that succession of sectional slavery agitations which have cul- minated in this rebellion. There is no safety in the violent abolition counsels of Mr. Adams. They tend to-anarchy and endless confusion. On the other hand, al- though with much greater cause for a hostile spirit against the South than Mr. Adams as a Presidential candidate, we find Mr. Lincoln, through all the trying ordeal of this rebellion, from his journey incog. to Washington, in order to escape a band of secession assassins, down to this day, the magnanimous, steadfast and consistent advocate of “the integrity of the Union,” including the preservation of the re- volted States of the South and their institutions, slavery and all, as they were. Itis not, then, a matter of wonder that his Provisional Gover- nor of Tennessee, Andrew Johnson, has becn received at Nashville as a deliverer, and that there is every prospect of complete success in his enterprise, without the slightest difficnlty, after the expulsion of the bogus Governor Har- ris and his armed confederates from Memphis. The speeches which we publish to-day, in this connection, of Emerson Etheridge, Parson Brownlow and Horace Maynard, are full of en- couragement. Mr. Etheridge’s loyalty is so de- cided that he does not hesitate to tell the peo- ple of Tennessee that, if the issue is to be made between slavery and the Union, slavery must go to the wall. But upon this point the Presi- dent’s emancipation Message will, or oughi to, satisfy the people of Tennessee, and of every other Southern State, that, whether it is their wish to preserve their institution of slavery or to abolish it, every consideration of safety, eoonomy and prudence invites them to the fullest confidence in his administration. We think it exceedingly fortunate that Andrew Jobnson has been appointed Provisional Go- vernor of Tennessee. He is known throughout the South, not as an abolitionist, nor even asa Northern republican, but asa Southern con- servative democrat; and from this fact, together with his proclamation, we anticipate the best results against the falsehoods of the secession leaders of the South and the disorganizing schemes of our abolition disunionists of the North. Torximas axp Twistixas or THe “Litre Vitiany.”—A short time ago we declared that Speaker Raymond, the “Little Villain” of the Times, had received a letter from General Wadswortl, containing attacks upon General McClellan. Now Raymond comes out in print, denying that he had ever received euch a letter for publication in the Times, but insinu- ating that he might have received a private let- ter of the character we asserted. This quibble about the private letter is too contemptible to notice, and’ upon the main facts of the case, therefore, we: convict the “Little Villain” of having told one of two lies—viz: he either lied when he-told our informant that he had received a letter from Wadsworth, or he lied when he declared in print, that our statement was untrue. We happen t8 have the honorable Speaker on ® sharp pin this.time; for he is himself responsible for our statement, and it was made upon his authority. The more he turns and twists, the more this pin will hurt him. It is very curious to observe’ the motive of this downright lying practised by the “Little Vil- lain.” General Wadsworth, it appears, is a can- didate for Senator from New York, and wishes. to be elected by the next Legislature. Ray~ mond is also a candidate for the same office. Therefore, while pretending to be very friendly to General Wadsworth an@ the opponents. of McClellan, Raymond steals around and stabs Wadsworth in the back by spreading reports him. This isa very favorite mode of engineering with the “Little Villain,” and he practises it on small and great alike. For in- stance, in an article upon Mr. Gregory, M. P., in the Times of Wednesday last, he, to gratify some personal spite or other, lugged in a batch of old scandals about a gentleman of this city in no way connected with the subject ofthe article. Yesterday the Times declares that all its statements in regard to that gentle- man were false, and the whole article errone, ous. This is coolness worthy of Iceland, and we desire to have a little of it shown in regard to Wadsworth. Which will Spoaker Raymond deny—bis word to our informant or his letter to the papers’, Tae Evexixo Post anp THE ARwy.—The Evening Post and other abolition jounats have adopted a new and most amusing way of attack- ing ovr Union generals and the Union army. They say that our soldiers belong to an asso- power in hostility .to the fundamental law of | ciation called the Knights of the Golden Circle, the State (tho federal constitution), aad syb- | and that the Hmnatn i its orgen. The fellow knights, however; for they fight well, and, like Bayard—but unlike the rotten-egged abolition- ists—they have proven themselves sang peur eg sansreproche. tionism, was other evening. Aaron, another abolition priest, was treated to the same sort of unsavory omelette at Burlington, New Jersey, on Thure- day night. This Aaron is curnamed Samuel, is dubbed a reverend, and preaches to persons of the Baptist persuasion, at the little village of Mount Holly, not far from the scene of his mar- tyrdom. The abolition Moses and Aaron both tried to do the same thing, and met with the game reception. They endeavored to talk trea- gon, and were rotten-egged. It seems that Northern disunioniats are in equally bad odor in Ohio and New Jersey, and the people who rebuke them choose missiles remarkably signi- fioant of the general public opinion of auch agitators. mobbing of these fellows, or of any interference with the right of free speech, so long as egging these agitators, should let them severely be careful to censure justly and wisely. At Cincinnati, it was not until Wendell Phillips called all Union lovers “ignorant white men,” and declared that he had been “an abolitionist, and nothing else, for thirty years,” and had been “for sixteen yearsa disunionist,” that rotten eggs gave emphasis to hisses. At Burlington, it was not until present in which the war was conducted” the audience hissed and rotten-egged him. In both cases, then, the provocation was so ample that, while we may wish the loyal people had stayed at home, we cannot pity the abolition lecturers nor think their punishment too great. Granted the right of free speech; but if a man exercises it only to insult you by boasting that he bas been trying, all his life long, to iajure you and destroy your country, and has at last succeeded, no one can pity him if you knock him down, though ali must admit that it would be more Christianlike for you to walk away Christ: they prefer returning bad eggs for bad words, instead of good for evil. mothers, other relatives of men who are fighting for the Union. platform and begins by denouncing the army and its gencrals. disapprobation: but the lecturer proceeds to tell them that for thirty years he bas been la+ boring to bring about this war, and for the sake of the negro he glories in the dead, so dear to his hearers, who strew every battle field, and in the wounded, whose shr their mothers ar is proud to be so. the cost of the wer; deelares, and proves, that he has made these expenses necessary, and an- pounces that Le will do his utmost to prolong the war, until it ends in disunion. the conatitution is a compact with death and a bond with Hell, and avows himself a confirmed disunionist, declaring that all who do not agree with him are ignorant white men.

So in the case of these pestilent, spouting wretches, whom the officials at Washington have hitherto refused to punish, but. have tried to pet into silence, as a silly mother spanks all her naughty children but the favorite—who is always the worst—and gives him astick of eandy instead of the deserved drubbing, The-abelition- ists have been the only opponents of President sulted the President and his subordinates, as well as the ladies of their families.

The better to do than country bas a right to demand from Mr. Secreteay Welles a full explanation of his administration, and we hope that Senator Hale will not be be- -hindhand in instituting a ecarching examine tion into all its details, Why was the Nashville allowed to make her escape from Beaufort, when it was known that she had rem in there and that General Bususide was or dered to capture the place? Why, when it was notorious that the Merrimac was ready to start on her errand for destrustion, were special measures of defence against her mot resorted to? Why, even while she was in course of com- struction, were iron-plated ships not built te meet her? And what is being done now te guard sufficiently against a repetition of the disasters which ehe inflleted on her first appene- ance, and her own escape to seat These and many others are questions which require ea- swering; and where we have suffered so mang disgraces by mismanagement we have a Tight to demand the reasons why tho of the Navy, with ample resources and power at his command, failed in protecting the best inte- rests of the country entrusted to bis charge We trust that Senator Hale will do his wort thoroughly and without regard to individual feelings, and that the result will be a morecre- ditable administration in future of the affaire of the department of which Mr. Welles is at re sent the chief. . Georcx Sanpzrs wv Seceso—A Oanpm@are For “Oxv Cro’.”—Read the interesting account, which we publish to-day, of George Sanders, an the errand boy in Tennessee of the fugitive Major William H. Polk, brother of the late President Polk, it appears, has stood true to the Unios through all the fiery trials of secession; ané upon this Union man it seems that, in the last extremity, Sanders had to call fer the means of transportation for his runaway seccasion State officials of Kentucky. Sanders wasim a bed plight. He has carried bis revolutionary eggs at last lo a bad market. Here, as European re voiutionist and President maker, he futtencd ew turtle soup and champagne, and lived like e. king on the publie money. Teturns up ia ‘Tennessee a regular ragamuffin, all in rage, and holes, and patehes. He is a candidate for “old clo’;” and, remembering hia peculiar ser- vices to Horace Greeley as his Montgomery telegraphic correspondent when the Jeff. Davis government was first established there, we call upon Greeley to do. something now for Sanderm A box of “old clo?” from Greeley, including a few of those old white coats, and hate, amd cowhide boots, if not-too old, will be acceptable to Sanders at this crisis, Warvoy, of South Carolina, the original secession correspondent of the Tribune, is doing very well; bet Sanders, in his rags, calls for the compassion of Greeleys missioners appointed to investigate the cases-of persons confined on charges of treason in: the: government forts are proceeding rapidly with their work, and are fast clearing them of: theie inmates. They will not have accomplished their task an hour too soon; for these prisens: will soon be wanted as places of shelter forthe. wretched fanatics whose wicked. plottings an@ treasonable denunciations of the governmeng are overywhere moving the people to rise fa. indignation against them. F'rom:seach harmless: missiles as rotten eggs they may, by-and-by, pass to somothing more hurtful to the addled craniums of these madmen. Even Groeley may be glad to take shelter forthe summer im one of the cool casemates of Fort Lafayette: Sooner than see the poor devil drivon-to thie pass, we will take him under our wing, and wik give hins snug quarters at Fort Washingtom where, under the protection of the: glorious Union flag, he shall have board aad: lodging, and, what is equally necessary—ar gee® washing. ish Give Am.
