An Effort to Infuse Sow Courage Into Me -
(iclUn'i Dofoited Amy.
A nation’s expectations and confidence never
beat ho high, or was so unbounded upon the
success of any measure as was that of the U.
States in the capture of Richmonder McClel
lan. Their hearts were set upon it, and no
one seemed to entertain the slightest doubt of
it. Hew bitter has been their disappointment!
No one can appreciate it nnl-:t3 he should feel
it
But an effort is to be made tc retrieve their
fortunes The most necessary thing to do, is
to revive the courage and enthusiasm of Mc
Clellan s dispirited und discouraged troops.—
Tc d this, old Abe has honored them with a
complimentary visit. On the cih in«t. he cams
up ' uk James river, accompanied by Mr. Wet-
son, Assistant Secretary of War, General >*eg-
ley, and Colonel F. P. Blair, of 3t. Louie He
ppent iever&i days with the grand army, which
h is been so disgracefully defeated In com
pany ith McClellan, he reviewed .he entire
army every regiment and brigad> He came
to tl outpost of the “grand army, ’ in sight
o.' the i beli li -re he could not refrain from
do in. me gallant deed H * r.ccoi Fugly Bc-
a ..uni oJ from his horee, got up on a parapet,
where he could be heard by a few ioldiers,
av i -e..j by the rebels, und made a Union
speech me effect of which is described by
Tank , correspondents very great, ti - wa?
everywhere received wiih snouts of applause :
h i t when he left thorn and went back toWash-
ii a: . ilie grand Union army no doubt “felt
inuci; better,” and was no doubt greatly en
couraged.
Tins is the first lime old Abe has deigned to
come cut and notice his soldier- The object
Was to inspirit, and encoui gs them. It is
represented that he vus enthusiastically re
ceived and cheered by the defeated uud dis
heartened enemy. May-be it>ey would have
fought better in the late batik- it they had
known they w«uld be thus honored ; and the
next time ihey get into a fight, they will per
haps recollect tLe honor which their despot-
President has. conferred nn them in defeat,
ami tight harder, expecting greater honor, if
they utv successful. This may be so, we sny
—the tuture alone can tell.
How different from our President, who has
been on the field of every important battle
that be could reach—first at Manassas Plains,
then at Chickabotniny, and then in the lute
series of battles before Richmond. aU Yan-
keedorn is wild with excitement because Abe
has visited McClellan’s deafeated army, and
their papers are filled with the most extrava
gant and glowing account 3 of it!
But cne secret of all this is, that recruits—
new volunteers in frightful numbers—are
called for; ana this visit of Abe is to enthuse
the people and make them volunteer, far more
than to encourage the troops already in the
field—though that is not an inconsiderable ob
ject. Well, Abe will get his 300,000 men—no
difficulty about that—and then Wi can whip
them all.
Vanh ’e 7! vc i z-
Wc continue to-day the publication of the
clippings from the Nashville Union, commenc
ed in our issue of yesterday :
The following genuine specimen of lying is
sui generis. No one could perpetrate a speci-
miu of this kind, whose heart was ijot steeped
in falsehood, and whoss hauJ is not ready for
any act of villainy. Alluding* to the arrest
and imprisonment of of the clergy. >f the city,
he calls upon Union men to remember that:
“Hundreds of the noblest and oldest loyal
citizens "f cost Tennessee, one of them kh old
devoted and beloved minister of the gosnel,
and another a war-worn veteran sceeniy-three
years of nge, who fought under Jackson at
New Orleans, nre to-day and have been ftp-
months past lying in a clo3c and filthy dungeon
at Tuscaloosa, eating tainted meat, and bread
made of corn meal in which the grain and cob
are ground together, and drinking filthy wa
ter, in which their rebel guards wash their
hands. Shall such outrages be inflicted on
our countrymen for being loyal, in the face of
death, and justice not smite the men who have
aided in incarcerating them in r. loathsome
dungeon? We must redeem our brethren.—
Our hearts ache to think on their sorrows.
Cannot these rebels who ars now in cut Pen
itentiary, with others who will soon be there,
bo sent South and exchanged for the heroic
martyrs of East Tennessee ? We would re
joice if the exchange could be made. Let i:
be done if proper. If necessary, we will give
two rebel priests for one loyal prisoner, and
r.-joice that wc had g--t the test of the bar-
gain.”
in alluding tc the sending of these heroic
ministers tc the Penitentiary, this vile editor
compliments the whole of them thus:
The parsons evidently covet the glories of
martyrdom: und to do them justice we don’t
know of anybody more richly deserving of
burning at the stake, were that classic mode
of punishment in vogue. Many of them have
a heavier crime te answor for than any of the
common felons in the Penitentiary, and when
they leave us finally we ca i all sing the good
old hymn.
1 Believing we rejoice
To see the curse remevti'
A big effort was made te get up an imposing
celebration of the 4th of July in Nashville, on
a grand Union sensation Andy's dirty sheet
came out on the morning of that day with an
editorial of over a column in length. Its ti
tle was, “ The Birthday of the Nation. ' Ho
indulged most extravagantly in the usual 4th
of Tnly buncombe, love of country. Washing
ton, Franklin. lTTti. George III., tie. He then
alludes to the loyal and disloyal elements in
the population of Tennessee on this wise :
To-day. then, draws the line JGiinstly be
tween the loyal and the disloyal, l’te first
will join enthusiastically in the celebration,
and thank God for the ri -Lesi temporal legacy
ever given to a people—THE RIGHT OF SLLt -
GOVERNMENT 1 and the latter will sullenly
sit at home or stand coldly < if, and hope for
the advent of i*n arir^of red-coals to erurb
out iwenty-fiv* million? of Amerfcau demo
crat. We pway that the Capitol may stand
forever—they pi*y that Stonewall Jackson
may apply the torch to it.
In his perforation he crews eloquent. No
doubt great drops of sweat rolled tf Lis brow
at the conclusion of the following mighty ef
fort to induce the people of Nashville to join
that day in the Yankee celebration :
To-day, then the line will be drawn between j
treason and loyalty. Patriots of Nashville, |
you will not be overawed to-day by rebel in
solence. You have temporized too long al
ready, and have been too fearful of offending
your neighbors by manifestations of loyalty.
The man or \corr.ar\ who i3 offended at the insig
nia of loyalty is not Jit to be treated as a neigh
bor. Let ali such persons know that their feet
cannot pollute the tree soil of Tennessee. Her
lovely hills and plains were designed as the
home freemen, not as a den of slaves and trai
tors to the noblest government that was ever
revealed by heaven to mankind.
If the spirits of the dead ever revisit the
scenes of their labor while on the earth, surely
we are encompassed to-day by a cloud of il
lustrious witnesses. To us the air seems vo
cal with the voices of our immortal dead.—

j The paper of the next day contains an ac-
• count of the celebration, At day light, a aa-
lut i of thirty-four guns were fired from a Yan
kee battery, and the city bells were made to
ring out loud peals, which the editor says
waited up th:- people of the city. The military
procession was formed a little after J o’clock,
and mmched through various streets—“ down
Br. au to \ ine, up \ ioeto Spring—down Spring
to Cherry—up Cherry to Union—down Union
to College, out of College to the Public Square,
around the Square to Cedar, aud up Cudur to
and around the Capitol, where tiiey came to a
hull aud gave three cheers.” This is the most
romantic description ol a city procession wc
ever n ad or heard of—first down and up—
then up aud down—isn't it interesting ?
The hall of the House ot Representatives
was thrown open, aud this Andy Johnson edi
tor says it was ' speedily filled with an array
ot talent and beauty seldom gathered together
at any place;" the “ hall was densely crowded
and hundreds « ere umib'c to gain admittance,”
<kc. There was music by the band; prayer by
a Yankee parson—Rev. J. Huntington: read
ing the Declaration of Independence by Wm.
B. Campbell; reading Washington’s Farewell
Addtess by Russell Houston, and an oration
by Jordan Stokes—all interspersed occasion
ally with music.
“At 8 o’clock, r. M., there was another
bulliant assemblage me: at the Capitol to lis
ten to uddresses” made by L. D. Campbell and
Andy Johnson, to a very late hour.
A number of flag3 were displayed lr — pub
lic' buildings and private residences, and*seve
ral ot the latter had some tasteful arrange
ment or device: among these, by tar ihe most
intere-ting, w£3 the front of the residence of
Mr. i. Flowers. From his second story win
dow was displayed a splendid portrait of Gen.
Washington, encircled by a wreath, and be
hind and around it, geraniums and rare and
beautiful flowers. From the upper window
was suspended a new National flag, the handi
work of Mrs. Flowers and the fair MBs Nellie.
A private jollification was gotten up by some
parties on Cherry street, who procured a band
aud placed the musicians in a wood wagon,
driving around the square to the tune of “Hail
C lumbia,” “ Yankee Doodle, ’etc.
The day passed off without any disturbance,
and with but few incidents to write about.—
From indications, our Police Report is likely
to be full, many poor creatures, overcome with
heat and patriotism, ha.ing imbibed too free
ly for correct navigation.
We notice in all this glorification, that the
editor dond't allude to the manner in which
the “immense audience” received the readings
of Campbell and Houston, and the labored ef
forts of Stokes, Campbell and Johnson. That
there were large audiences, we are sure was
not th? case. Indeed, we have positive infor
mation from a gentleman cf thirdly, who was
in Nashville all that day, a careful observer,
ti a* their audiences were small, and composed
of but very Tew respectable people—very few
of any sort, except the Yankee soldiery and
the lately imported Yankees. The great array
of beautiful ladies alluded to consisted of the
wives of a few Y'ankce officers, and the de
based “ women of the town.” This Andy
Johnson editor gives us on inkling of the com
position of the precession. It was of Yankee
soldiers—the liih Michigan, 51st an! 74th
Ohio, and 1st Tennessee regiments—each hav
ing a trass band. The gentleman alluded to
walked all over the city, and saw but
United States flags displayed. The whole cel-
bralion was the tamest aud most out-of-place
and unnatural affair. There was no enthusi
asm—no welcome to the day or those who were
celebrating it, save by those who were the
hirelings of the abolitionioed gevernmout —
Such are the facts, in contradistinction to the
lying account cf the traitor editor who has
s\id himself to Andy Johnson, to do his dirty
work at his bidding.
To Remove Maooots raow Worses.—As a
matter of wide-spread interest at this lime, we j
give place to the following:
Take the leave?, bark, flowers, or berries of
the common elder fSambacus nigerf, make a
strong tea by pouring boiling water upon them
and l.-tting them steep. Wash the wounds once
or twice a day with this. Boil some lard, and
while boiling stir in elder in considerable
quan'ity, and strain off through a sieve or
coarse cloth. This makes an ointment for the
same purpose. It is improved by addin? one-
fourtb as much c .mmon beeswax as the amount
cf la-d used
Antiseptic Poxie-.—Tc correct the offensive
odors of wounds, mix cne hundred parts of
calcined plaster of Paris and two parts of coal
tar. Rub well together. Sprinkle this upon
the wound cnce or twice daily. They have
been fully tested for year? in the Beilveue
Hospital.
BY TELEGRAPH.
EXPRESSLY rOR THE SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY.
Pur Contra.—While with considerable
pride we yesterday anoureed the brilliant feat
of Cclonel Morgan at Tcmpkinsvillc, Ky , it
is wi h great mortification we have to announce
a reverse nearer home. At Wallace’s Cross
Roads, near the Jacksborough, about 25 mile9
from these headquarters, four companies of
Colo:.el McLin’s cavalry regiment were at
tacked by a large force of Federal infantry,
and routed, leaving their camp equippage and
provisions in tLe hands of the enemy. We
evid* -itly lost some in killed and wounded;
but J.3W many tvo cannot ascertain ficm the
incoherent accounts of the couriers who have
arri- ?d here This cavalry of Colonel Mc-
Lin’s is an unfortunate organization It was
ongiially, (or part of it) Lt. Col. White’s bat-
talii n. who were surprised at Jacksboro,
some months age, and the commander taken
prisoner, but subsequently paroled.—Kr.ox-
viltc Register, ICth.
Wjut we iiave Gained.—In the first place
we have driven the enemy from all his strong
est original positions on the North of the
Cliic'aahominy. We have the glory on our
side of a daily succession of victories, which
has completely disconcerted the plans of the
enemy. We have re-opened ihe communica
tion bn the Fredericksburg and Central Rail
Roads, cut off the enemy fiom his principal
avenues of supply anl escape, destroyed his
telegraphic communication, and taken posses
sion of the York River Rail Road, besides
capturing the latest Baltimore mails sent up
that route.—Richmond Enonirer.
p.f= “Don’t raise such a dust—walk your
horses as you pass the General’s Head Quar
ters,” said a sentinel before Gen. Grant’3 res
idence in Memphis, ns a carriage was passing.
The lady occupant of the carriage, a well
known widew oi strong Southern proclivities,
answered as ii drove rapidly by : “Its our
dust, if you don’t like it leave here and go to
your own dirty country.”
Obituaries,
We are again under the painful necessity of
calling the attention of our readers and the pub
lic to our terms tor publishing obituary notices,
tributes of respect, &c. Wc cannot insert them
except as advertisements. This is not because
we are not disposed to accommodate our patrons
and friends ; but because if we should do so for
one, we would be under obligations to do so for
all, and if we did this, we would have every is
sue •'i our paper half filled with obituaries; and
the very persons who ask us to pub.ish them,
wo JA scon become disgusted with our paper and
cease patronizing it. We arecompeiled tocharge
for them in self defence—to keep them out of
our paper—and not tor the purpose cf making
money by publishing them.
So friends, please don’t ask us to publish obit
uaries gratuitously. It gives us pain to decline
such a request of a patron or friend, but it isab
soiutcly necessary.

paper is published where Andy Johnson's
home is located, and was once friendly to
him - but as soon a? he turned against his
country Mr Robertson turn.d aguins: him.
H-. has greatly suffered by his advocacy of
the rights of the South in the midst of that j
?trcng Union element. Lately his paper is !
more prosperous, at which which we heartily
rejoice. He deserves success for Lis zta! and
and fidelity to hi: country ia the face of such j
opposition.

Worth Knowing.
A gentleman lately from Nassau brings the
welcome information that very large amounts
of goods from England have lately arrived in
the Confederate States through Southern ports
No less than five vessels have run the block
ade within a few days, laden with arms, mu
nitions o: war, and stores of various kinds for
the Confederate States. The Government has
nowonhand an abundantsupply ofguns, shoes,
blankets, clothing, &c., for the army during
the whole of next winter. The gentleman says
he speaks advisedly and knowingly, when he
says that the supply of these articles for the
army during the coming winter, is abundant.
Then a very large amount of goods have
lately rua the blockade. Our own city is get
ting to be full of English goods, and the vil
lages and even country stores are commencing
to replenish. Soon goods will be cheaper, a?
they become more abundant.
The gentleman alluded to says the greatest
excitement prevails in England in relation to
trade with the South, and numbers cf iron
clad ships are now fitting out for the purpose
of running the blockade with goods. Soon we
shall have plenty of Engli-h goods here, which
have not been polluted by the tjuch of Yankee
fingers, and which have not greased their
palms in passing through ; but they will have
come direct to us from Europe. If the Gov
ernment of England choose to recognize the
blockade in theory, her people do not in fact.
This will establish regular direct trade between
us, tc be kept up, as soon as the war is over.
The blockade and the high price for goods have
accomplished, and will accomplish, more lor
us, to introduce and establish direct trade, than
twenty years of diplomacy. Lei us thank Gud,
that out of all cur sufferings, inccnvenieDCfa
and privations, a large amount of good Lns been
secured to us and our posterity.
With propitious seasons, we shall s^on har
vest one of the greatest groin crops ever grown
in America. We shall have plenty to eat j and
with plenty of English goods at moderate-
prices, and plenty cf guns in the hands cf our
brave soldiery, we can whip out the North and
conquer a peace from them, without any thank:
to any one for intervention, or even recogni
tion. We have the men with big souls, who
can do this fighting, if we can keep them arm
ed, fed and clothed. That is all. Friends,
take courage. Tee day of triumph may be
nigh; but if it be far away, if is none the less
certain. Ocr people can t be subdued. We
must and will triumph in the end, be it soon
or late.

GOVERNOR'S ISlAND, 4c.
The New York Herald of the 7iL inst. has
the following:
Yestrrday morning witnessed another large
batch ot prisoners frum the South, alter the
late battles opposite Richmond, uud their
transportation to t is port via Fortress Mon
roe, and disembarkation lrom the United
States transport Hero, Capt. Haucox, for Gov
ernor's 1-laud. The prisoners were m charge
of Lieut. Mehaffey, ot Uen. Andrew Porter's
staff.
l’ho moment that the news of their arrival
reached Col. Loans, Lieutenant Casey, Provost
Marshal of the fort, had a number of hands
engaged, when two hundred and bixteen fine
spacious and comfortable tents were erected
for their accommodation and reception. The
clean, neat aud healthy appearauco of tho
mils c mirasted ra‘her differently with the ap
pearance and clothing of tho reb-.-l soldiers of
war from Y'lrgiuia. Still, this was not owing
to a y want of attendance during the passage
of the transport, but was, it is believed, lrom
a desire to keep themselves as haggard and
forlorn looking as possible.
Such a state of tilings did not long continue,
however, as when the prisoners of war viewed
the whole apartments, cookery, washing appa
ratus, with other necessary conveniences, they
proceeded to tidy themselves up, and said
aloud, many of them, they were better here
than under Jeff. Davis.
All the tents are put up in infantry style,
and reflect much credit ou Lieutenant Casey,
the Marshal, whosa arduous task now.iu charge
of 1,500 prisoners, at Castle William, is any
thing but an edviable one.
The officers are all at the fort, and have the
same ciiniiortable apartments uud accommoda
tions as the officers of the regular service, and
both officers aud men feel thankful for the
marked attention that has been already mani
fested by the worthy Union troops. Taaethem
as a whole, their appearance is vastly inferior
to our Uuion soldiers, although they appear to
be possessed of a quantity of pluos aud ener
gy, which characteristics are depicted iu their
determined looking countenances.
