In conoection with the recent battle in Miuon
ri, the following sketch of Gen. McCulloch, under
who*.* leadership the glorious victory was won,
will be reed with interest :
Gen McCulloch wee born in Rutherford couutT,
Tenn., in 1&14. Hi* father, Alexander McCulloch,
was tid de-camp to Gen. Coffee, and fought under
Gen Jackson at the battles of Talladega, Talla
be*eu and Horseshoe during the Creek war. His
father emigrated to Georgia when Ben was very
young, ana lien was kept at school in Tennessee
until be was 14 years old. After ibis Ben wss
kept hunting until he was near 21. At that time
the bears w.re so bad in Tennessee that the set
tlers could not raise their hogs. Hunting bears
in tile cane required much caution, and ts a mans
gun snipped he lost bis breakfast. Voung Mc-
Culloch frequently killed as many as 80 bears in
a sea> n, and never less than hi in the course of
the Winter. This hie gave him a taste for wild
adve nture, and when he became of age he deter
mined to go an expedition to the Kockv Moun- 1
tains, and left hia home far St. Louis to join a
company of trappers. He arrived too late, how
ever, and liken ise failed in joining a company of
Santa Fe traders.

that capacity.

Tub Xew Orleans Bwtrking Ham.— The same
parties who arrived at New York from the South
and gave the information of Gen. Pillow’s move
meuts, nave al*o furnished the New York Com
notrcial with the following description of a novel
implement of war intended to operate against the
blockading Ilwti:
At Algiers a formidable instrument of destruc
ti >•; ih >eing prepared, aod was expected to be
lauucbed about the 20th. The tug-boat Luoch
Train, built m Ho*ton, aod one of the most power
fi>! tugs of her class, has bean converted to a
purpose never intended by tier builder or the
gentleman whose name she bears. Tbe upper
portion of tiie boat has been covered with rail
r-ad iron and perfectly shielded from ihe attack
ot ao ordinary caunouade. At the bow a ram
has been const, act and. The bow has been built
out ;o the extent of five feet, heavily framed
wit ii timber, and then covered with heavy wrought
metal.
At the extreme end a formidable maps of iron
projects in the form of a knob. Beneath t iis
knob and beneath the surface of tbe water two
strong grapples have been arranged so fashioned
that u|*ou colliding with a ship the claws will
fa.-icn into the side of the vessel and take a firm
hold. I rotected by th*-ae grapples in a manner
not hnlike an insect's lance or sting, there pro
; than hu >t onuected by uieatia of shuftiug,
with an independent machine on the boat. This
in ...urn nt is intended to operate us follows:
Upon the attachment of th- grapples to tho side
of tins attacked vessel, the auger will be set in
rapid motion aud bore its wav into *he side.—
When one hole has been forked through, the au
ger can he withdrawn, and by means of an inde
pendent axle, the position will be changed so as
to operate upon another portion of the ship, thus
boring holes rapidly n: ‘. an o enough to sink the
vessel. Ihe boat w huve a crew of six meu,
who will he protec . beneath the iron roof, the
pilot obM r '* ‘ direction through a tube or
small ti Itmcupo.

this aflnr, made to Capt. Craven, commander of
the flotilla of the Potomac :

Sib: In obedieuce to your orders 1 proceeded
down „ue river to mutce an ai animat ion ct Mat
tin ft Poiui and liiiuif-ditt e vicinity. Nothing In
Uicaliug a hostile movement ooultl be discoyered
at or about that point. Hearing that a schooner
was ashore at lower Cedar Point, I thought it ad
visable to go dowu to her, and get her off if pos
sible. A boat was seen ou the Virginia shore a
distance this side of Persiraniou Point, and I dis
patched au officer and five meu in a boat, for the
purpose of daptunng her. They had just reached
her, and were in the act of making fast to her,
when a voliey of mubketry was fired from the ad
joining bushes, not more thau five or six yards
distaui; instantly kiting three of the boat's crew
and wounding auottier.
1 imoiedu ly opeued fire, throwing shell into
tha oover that sheltered the enemy. After lout
or five rounas they were driven out, running iu
parties of three and four in different directions,
some of ‘hem running out into 6ome dwelling

crew succeeded in getting her off from the shore
while, i ,*as firing The Reliance coming up at ;
this morneut, commenced throwing shell at the 1
fivmg enemy, aud also sent a boat to assist in
my b at off. Nothing was left behind.
My boat is completely riddled, particularly in the
atu*r part The attacking party numbered about
tairtN. Lieut. Mygatt remained with his vesse.
lu tbo vicinity until I could report to you.
Ihe following persons were killed aud wound
ed :
_ Killed—John Fuller, master’s mate : George

ouuded —Ernest Walton, seaman.
Tae meu that escaped state the boat on the ;
r*iore had two casks in her. We were uifable to
secure her. 4 ery respectfully,
Wm. Bcdd. Com’dg Rasolute.
From another account of the affair we copy the i
following
The scene on board tbs small boat is described ;
as heart-sickening, the -lead lying outstretched in !
it, covered with tueir own blood. The boat was
towed a short distance from the shore bv one c .
the crew named Sanderson, who quietly slipped in
the water for that purpose, and thus cencealed j
himself from the enemy.
The other uninjured man, it is said, lay in the
boat, horrified by the scene hrough which he bad
just passed, while the wounded man helped San
derson to row the boat towards the Reliance, from
which assistance was immeaiately rendered. The
enemy evidently congratulated themselves that
they bad killed'the entire boat’s crew.
1 he Resolute reached tue Navy Yard last night
at 11 o’clock, bringing the dead and wounded
men, who have been sent to the hospital.
As the woods skirting the several more impor
ts: t crossings of the Potomac afford fine ambus
cades for the. enemy, those who are bes: acquaint
ed ith the geography of the river are urging the
application of fire as au cfi*.c:ual means of de
stroying the preseut assailing advantages of the
disutdonists, as well as other measures of accom
pli :-h>ng that purpose.

An officer of Artillery in the Confederate Army,
at Manassas, writes us that he bus been informed
by intelligent prisoners of Burnside’s Rhode
Island Regiment, that the Rhode Island battery,
captured at the battle of Mauatsos, on the 21st of
July, is not the battery which Gov. Sprague
purchased with his private funds aud preseuted
to the First Rhode Island Regiment.
All of the chi soon s attached to the battery of
the 2d Rhode 1.-daud Regiment were marked “To
his Excel’ency Gov. Sprague, Providence, R. I.”
One of the peculiarities of the guns which at
tracted tue attention of all Artillerists was the
construction of the sights. Though novel to all
who examined the guns it is very familiar to the
old marksmen about Columbus. It was the in
vention of an old citizen of this city, well known
many years since as a very ingenious workmau—
aud rather eccentric withal—Templeton Keif.
A saw of the heavy target guns which he made
may still be found in the possession of those who
delighted iu the sports of the field before the
forests of the “Creek Nation” bad given place to
the broad acres of cottou and corn. The last of
I this pattern was in the collection winch Dr. W.
I K. Schley had, and was kuowc as the “ g'obe
tight.” The tore arid hind sight is shaded to
j avoid the difficulty of firing in bright suuligbt.
The hind sight has a small hrl> instead of the old
| fashioned cross sight, and the forepart resembles
a pin head inserted in u tube to shade it.
On tbe guua ot tue battery f brass rifled cuu
roq the hiud sight was elevated or depressed by a
taugent screw for the required distance, each
degree of elevation giving about 450 yards addi
tional range. Our gunners object to the nicety cf
aim required, thinking it would not work well in
rapid firing. It is claimed that this sight care
fully aimed where the distance cau be closely
estimated, will strike a single tile at a distance of
two miles.
This battery is now used by Col. Wade Hamp
ton of the Legion, assurauce sufficient that it will
dc better work than it did a* Mauassas.
The private battery or’ Gov. Sprague is at Har
per’s terry, We couut on includiug that in our
h*t of ordnance, as we rather like this of
gun.
The positioU oi this battery was on the morn
ing of the 21st of July near where the New Or
leans Tigers and the Alabama Fourth were cut to
Jieces. In the afternoon it was to the left of Gen.
ackson’s brigade. Col. Cummings, cf the Vir
ginia Volunteers, captured tho battery once.—
Col. Thomas of Maryland was shot in front of it.
And the horse of Gen. Beauregard and Major
Ferguson, his aid, were also killed here. It was
in this part of the field that Beauregard beaded
the liamptou Legion aud the reinforcements of
Kirby Smith anu Elzey came in late in the after
noon. In tact this battery nearly marked the
extreme right wing of the enemy’s advance.—Co
lumbus Sun.
Fatal ArrK.tr.—A passenger, by last night’s
train from Augusta, furnishes us with the follow
ing particulars of an affray in which one mau was
mortally wounded and several others very serious
ly injured. It appears that, at the'different
stations along the road, various bodies of troops
were taken on board the cars. At Blackville eight
soldiers were received, some of whom seemed to
be imoxicated, and who kept up a continual dis
turbance until their arrival at Branchville. Here
the party got eut upon the platform, when one of
them struck another, wmcb resulted in a challenge
to a fight. The two then closed, wheu the first
aggressor was thrown down violently three times
upon the platform.
They afterwards entered into the bar room,
when another difficulty took place, which our in
formant did uot see but heard the smashing of
glasses, a--d learned . ttjtomblers hacjheen thrown
iu the melee that took place, and that -he Dar
keeper and a gentleman who had beeu mistaken
for another, were seriously wounded—the former
on the head, aud the latter cut three times on the
ue-k.
After leaving Branchviile, the whole party com
menced sousing one another, uttering loud threat.-
aud brandishing pistols and bowie knives to the
great terror ana consternation of the passengers.
About two o’clock iu the morniDg a difficulty
occurred in the conductor’s car, who immediately
ordered all bis train hands to the rest cars. It
was during this difficulty that a mau whose name
our informant believed to be barton in.cks, -was
shot iu the breast, the ball comuiing out at the
back. The firing of the pistol was distinctly beard
by our informant, who saw the wounded mau a
few moments afterward lying dowu iu the car,
apparently breathing his last. The wound was
examined by the passengers and pronounced ex
tremely dangerous if not mort-!. The man who
fired the pistol was taken into custody, aud him
self aud hts nc’tm taken off the cars at Summer
ville.
The passengers, who were much annoyed by
the disorderly conduct of these men, exonerate
the conductor, who was indefatigable in Lis exer
tion* tc arrest the -—.-ties and quell the distur
bance. H:s efforts however, were of no avail, and
his life several times threatened for his interfer
ence.—c'forlosr-on CourtV, 2is£.
The hew York Journal of Commerce publishes
tbe following extract of a letter t* a New Tork
merchant from a leading firm in London :
Losdok, July 81 —Osborne (Donegal, No. 101)

preparing enormous reinforcements to protect
British commerce against the blockade, wnich is
both illegal and inefficient.
There are only ten weeks’ consumpton of cotton

There is no possibility of getting a loan here,

Thin Vile War:
We give the following frem the Concord N H
Standard oi tbe Srd, a the irtide which caated
the paper to be mobbed :
Men of New Englaud ! It is a war waged against
rour interests, your p cket, voar future pros
perity; the welfare of yar families, the future of
vour wires and little children. The sad loss of
life at Ball Ran—nay the thousands of brave
hearts wi.icb are yet to he sacrificed, if Black
Republican demagogues and treasury plunder
ers are permitted to carrv out their programme
of blood—are but as a feather m the balance
when weighed against the demoralization, the
prostration, tne crashing destruction, which this
infernal war will surely bring upon every Ne v
England borne. Fathers! God protect yocr i
dear wives and helples- children who will hare to !
suffer most from this iofamous, fratricidal war.
Rich men—those who are reputed to be such, i
Where is your fancied wealth ? What is your i
real estate worth to-day ‘i Where can you find a i
purchaser for it, at anything like its cost ? Where j
can you find one at any price? Will your incomes j
pay insurance and taxes, if this miserable war !
continues until next May?
Men of moderate mean3. Where is your in- {
come to day ? What store keeper in Concord has j
made enough for the past fortnight to y ay his bus- i
iness expenses, to sav nothing of those of his
family ? Have your profits paid the grocer, the
butcher, the baker ? If they have, then the de
serted streets of this city, for the past fourteen
days, have lied, and yet you have only begun to
get a peep at the beginning of the end. If this
cursed, njgger war continues another twelve
month, grass will grow in Main Street. Even the
government tax gatherers will not be able to tread
it down, for by that time, may be, you will have
ceased to be able to pay their demands, ar.d tbeir
occupation will be gone.
You must then repudiate, willing or unwilling.
Mechanics ! You like to read about the war, per
haps, in the unreliable senation city press. You
would have rejoiced over a different result at Bull
Hun—exulted at a Northern forward
march to Richmond. But reflect a moment serious
ly—reflect ! Would that have done mere than
gratify your sectional pride, or political animosity?
Would it have tenaed to revive your crippled
business V Would it have ensured to you bettei
wages for the coming fall aud winter, fuel for your
firesides, food and raiment f< r your loved ones ?
Think seriously about this. Look at the taxes
which tbi. damnable war is daily piling upon
your shoulders —count the figures—mark the
plunderers who have plunged their arms to their
pits in the public treasury, while our soldiers
starve and go almost naked—count the cost, if
you know how to do sums :n addition—
und then answer, how long do you expect to stand
it ? Will it /ray /
Poor men—vou who depend on your daily labor
for your support, God help you ! *We feel for you,
because we arc one of you. Where do we find
our dollar a day now, unless we. enlist a* qficets
for this plundering war ? Where shall we find
our shilling a day if it continues six months long
er, when the frosts and snows of another winter
fall around us and our- families’?
In this city, not u day has passed for the last
week but what the family of the writer of this
article has been called cn to give bread to famish
ing children—on two occasions to honest appear
ing, grown men, out of work and without a cent
They would be glad to labor, but they cannot find
a chance in the present general stagnation.
Where are our charitable associations?* Let them
arouse themselves—nav, even now ut mid-summer,
when poverty never before asked alms in Con
cord. This crying sh me—one o! the results of
ibis Devil’s w ar—bus got to he met. The money
which has been contributed for tracts Which tbey
will never read—the liberal contributions which
have been made for under-clothing, for havelocks,
for lintjwhich cowardly, ruu-awaj surgeons didn’t
stop to ue at Centrevillc- all these contributions
must soon be made over and over again, ten
times and ten times ten times, for the benefit of
our own suffering poor. Again w®, say, God help
them, for our city Mid town authorities don’t do
it. Already the alms bouses are not large enough.
iLiiicolsi’M Income Tax and Fyclkc
Duties.
We subjoin, for the information of the curious
in such matters, a statement of the income taxes
und excise duties imposed upon the people of the
United States by the Lincoln Cougress at its
recent c?xtra sesstou :
the income tax.
By the provisions of the act an annual tax is
laid on incomes derived from all sources other
than property subjected to the direct tax, as
follows :
On yearly incomes of residents of over
♦buO. 8 per cent.
On yearly incomes of non-residents of
over *BOO 5 per cent.
Thus a man who receives a salary of *I,OOO,
and no other income whatever, pays ;i tax of six
dollars, and the recipient of a salary of 2,000 pays
thirty-six dollars. This income tax extends to
all classes who receive an income of any kind
whatever. The merchant wi.o sells $50,000 worth
of goods a year pays an income tax of *1,500, and
the mechanic who earns *IO,OOO pays *3OO.
THE TAX ON CARRIAGES.
A tax is also laid upon every carriage, the body
of which rests on springs of any description, which
may be kept for use, and which shall not be ex
clusively employed for ihe transportation of mer
chandise, according to the following valuation, in
cluding the harness used therewith :
Not exceeding fifty dollars *1
If above fifty and not exceeding one hun
dred dollars 4
If above one hundred and not exceeding two
hundred dollars 8
If übotetwo hundred and not exceeding four
hundred dollars
If above four hundred uud not exceeding six
hundred dollars 22
If above six hundred aud not exceeding eight
hundred dollars 80
If above eight hundred and not exceeding a
thousand dollars \ . 40
hf above otic thousand dollars 50
TUE TAXON WATCHES.
An arm* 1 tux is also laid upon every watch
kept for lie as follows:
Gold watches each *1 00
Silver watches ... 50
TUB TAX on distilled spirits.
It is also provided that an annual tux be levied
on distilled spirits, to be paid by the manufactur
er or distiller thereof, as follows :
On each gallon, first proof or lesa 5 cents.
On each gallon, of greater strength than first
proof, in proportion to the above.
TIU: TIX ON FBRNKNTKI* LIQTORS.
Beer, air, porter and other similar fermented
liquors lire to be taxed as follows, the duty to be
paid by the brewer thereof:
Ou each gallon 2 cents.
On each barrel containing not more than*
3D gallons 63 cents.
This last item is making some of tbe Pittsburg
h's wince. Pittsburg, as many of our readers
know, is famous fqr its ale. The Pittsburg Post
says; “We know brewers in this city whose an
nual product is 20,000 barrels, aud the tax on this
amount for a single establishment would be $12,-
000 per year.” It is estimated that the ale and
beer alone produced in the United States would
yield a revenue of nearly a quarter of a million
dollars. These income and excise taxes are sepa
rate ar.d distinct from the direct tax. upon real es
tate and negroes. The law provides tor the ap
pointment of a considerable army of assessors
nad collectors t* gather these taxes, but we shall
not be annoyed by tuem in tbe Confederate States.

Washington, \ug. Ift. ihe disaflectioi iu var
ious regiments is in consequence of tbo supposed
enlistment for Three months. Tli s soldiers who
cainc to open mutiny, Gen. Me Powell decided
ftUouid he sent to the Tortugas. Gen. McClellan
and aScott endorsed the decision and the President
ordered it carried into effect.
T Herald*s Correspondence. ]
Washington, Aug. 16.—Numberless incidents
tend to show that the re .els are on the eve of
attacking our lines. Last night it wa discovered
that the rfebel lints had been advanced in all di
rections towards the Potomac. Their force at
Fairfax Court House has been largely increased.
Heavy forces have been thrown out on all the
roads. A large body is proceeding towards the
Point of Hocks. Their scouting parties ire in the
immediate vicinity ot our line along the whole ex
tern. ot the Potomac.
The rent's in Baltimore to-c • v received intelli
genet* that the rebels were then marching upon
Washington, and the information w s published
in an extra. It is thought that .hey were only u
little premature.
Gen. Scott does not ♦hink the attack will be
made, but Gen. McClellan, who is a classmate of
Beauregard’s and is familiar with his mode of
comb nation, is well convinced that he will make
au attack upon some point on the Potomac.
One of a regiment of negroes who took part in
the battle of Bull Run, at which time he tnade’his
escape and has since wandered about until he got
within our lines, asserts that there are in the
rebel army iu Virginia 2,000 or 3,000 negroes
armed with Hall’s rides. Most o.‘ them are from
further South than Virginia. The negroes from
dowu South have been taught that they would be
butchered if they fell into the hands of the
Unionist, but those picked up in Virginia have a
diffcreut idea and would ail run away if they
could.
It .is said the rebels have nearly 100,000 men
between here and Richmond. They have not the
means to provide for the immense army. They
know that under McClellan our army is becomiug
daily more formidable in numbers and discipline,
white their forces are getting more disorganized
and demoralised by delay and the poor prospect
of provisions for their comfort and maintenance
duriug the winter. They caunot afford to wait
lot tbe result of Gen. Scott’s plan of starving
them out, and Gen. McClellan’s programme to
hare the army perfectly disciplined aud prepared
before he begins to advance. They must either
fight now or see their army uielt away from ne
cessity w ithout another blow* being struck. That
an attaca will be made within a very short time
is generally conceded.
New Vo ax’, Aug. 17.—The Herald reports the
discovery of an au* mpt tc blow up For; Colurn-,
bus on Governor s Island. Fo’-r men arc repre
sented to La* e gone there on Monday with the
intention < flaying a tram to blow up the maga
zine and destroy several hundred tons of powder
. aDd a large number of soldiers.
A telegraph despatch has been received from
Gen. Fremont a-.iuiouncing that in the battle at
Wilson’s Creek Geu. Swe-ucy received a flesh
wound iu the ieg but w<i able to ride back upon
his horse 10 Si m gtkld.
Wash m.ton, Aug. 17. —The Confederate forces
have nearly all fallen back to Fairfax C. H. thus
wideniug the distance separating the hostile
torces. The pickets of both armies however oc
cupy the same advance points as heretofore.
fc*T. Loris, August 17.—A detachment of United
States troops from Cape Girardean seized $50,000
belonging to tbe Bank of St. Genevieve yester
day by order of General Fremont, and brought it
to this city to day. It is understood that this
uiouey was being or would be used for the benefit
of the secession cause in that section.
Baltimore, Aug. 17.—The Federal scouts last
Sunday succeeded in cap tun ug three notorious
seceftsiou bridge-burners at New Creek.
A force of 1,100 secessionists are at or uea*
Romney. The Federal troops are at New Creek
bridge ap i expected to be attacked by them.—
The Fedcrais have been reinforced.
Washington, Aug. 17. —Since our capitalists
have taken the new Government loan so freely
the Treasury Department has no doubt that it
will be largely taken abroad in spite of the croak
ing of the newspapers.
Advices which have been received here from
Kentucky state that tbe Union Legislature will
request Breakinridge and Powell to resign their
seats in tbe U. S. Senate.
Tbe Union meL. in Centuckv and Tennessee say
that a great victors in Virginia when the next
battle occurs will extinguish the rebellion in those
States.
St. Lons, Aug. 17. —1 t appears now that the
money seized at St. Genevieve yesterday was at
tbe request of the Directors of the Parent Bank
here, to wnom it was transferred to-day by Gen.
Fremont.
Washington, Aug. 17. —Ex-Minister Faulkner
is not, as has been stated, merely detained as a
hostage for the return of Harris and MaGrath,
but for good and satisfactory reasons to the Gov
ernment apart from any such consideration.
New Yoke, Aug. 17 —Tbe counsel for the Bal- j
timore Police Commissioners gave notice of hi 6 j
intention to apply tor an attachment against the |
Sheriff for not*using all means in his power to j
execute the writ against Col. Burke, he having !
power to call out the militia.
Kansas City, August 17.—We learn from relia
ble sources that 600 Btate troops, well armed and
equipped, leave Fayette, Howard county, to-day,
with tbe intention of joining Jackson’s forces in
ihe Southern part of tbe State. Four Hundred of
them are said to be mounted.
Washington, Aug. 17.—A special despatch to
the New York Post says that two rebel regiments :
are at Falls Church. The rebel pickets are in j
sight from the Chain Bridge over the Potomac. I

Insubordination in the “Uran:d Army."—A
letter from Washington, (Aug. 16*) publishes in
the Baltimore Exchange, says :
There is nothing upon which the military au
thorities here spend so much care as tbe suppres
sion of a knowledge of tbe true condition of the
army on the other side of the Potomac.
Gen. McClellau’s covenant with the Northern
Abolition press has been entered into not so much
lor tha purpose of concealing from the Confede
rates the movements of his forces as to prevent
the Northern public from understanding the de
plorable, and indeed hopeless, state of insubordi
nation into which the troops here have fallen.
The revolts iu tht* Seventy ninth New York,
Maine Second, and time of tb(* Connecticut regi
ments, are not more serious than those which
have taken place in as many es six or seveu other
regiments. So determined is the spirit of insubor
dination that tho presence *f strong bodies of
regular cavalry and artillery was necessary to
arrest it, and a uuunb r of the meu had to be put
in irons and Swparated iroiu their fellows. The
discoutent io uur'vrsal amongst the troops, and
grows out of causes which it is hnpossible to re
move. From favorable positions in Georgetown
iookimg across the river, you may sae the assem
bling iu disorderly and apparently tumultuous
quads, evidently discussing their grievances and
resisting the importunities of their officers to go
to their several duties.
The officers, too, are fully dissatisfied as the
meu. lam iufermei that iK)t less than lorty-two
of the officers resigned lately in a single day, aud
tha number of commissions thrown np since the
battle of Bull Run is said to be about one hundred
and eighty. All these are of the three years’ vol
unteers.
But it is not only amoug the volunteer officers
that the spirit of disconuiut has displayed itself.
The appointment of General McClellan,"although
it is acquiesced in, is tell by the whole of the regu
lar arm) as founded upon a principle grossly un
just and derogatory to themi. If every officer who
loses a battle is to* be sui*er*ded, it will so*on be
impossible to find men willing to accept responsi
ble commauds. luis beiievtd Lhat both Gen. Scott
and GeD. McDowell fesl very keenly tbe rebuke
which is implied in plamog over them a young
officer who never led a squadron in tbe field, and
who is much their junior in years and service.
We learn by this arrival thut Kingston, in Cana
da. is to be made a naval as well as a military
station, and that a naval force is to be stationed
on the lakes. Does this look like neutrality ? We
further learn that the English government has
sent out reinforcements to her already immense
fleet upon our coast, numbering some thirty ships
—two of them ships of the line, 90 guns; several
of them frigates, and most of them armed with
the powerful Armstrong cannon. The whole J
number of guns is now about bOO—a force, con
sidering the q ahty of the ships and armament, i
more than sufficient to break the blockade in
every port, and sink our whole fleet, thanks to
the imbecility of the Navy Department at Wash
ington. Then there is the powerful French squad
ron here, which we are assured will co operate
with the English because the erports of France
in wine and other articles have fallen off more
than one half, in consequence of the interruption
of its American trade by the war, and because,
without tbe tobacco which French agents are now
buyiDg up in Virginia, the whole finauciaJ system !
of the French government would be deranged—a ;
vast proportion of its iucome being derives! from I
tbe duty on that article.
Thus the New York Utrald of the 16tb squirms

War .Ylovenieiit* lu Virginia.
From the Richmond Dispatch of the 21st, we
take the following :
Skirmish at Harper’s Fep.ry. —A gentleman
just arrived from the above locality, informed us
last night that Col. Turner Ashby, of Fauquier,
arrived at Bolivar, near Harper’s Ferry, about two
o’clock last Sunday afternoon with troops.
He sent forwavd ten meu to reconnoitre, who re
norted 400 Abolition soldiers in Harper’s Ferry.
He proceeded, intending to attack them. On ar
riving at Camp Hill he ascertained that they had
found out his design, and crossed the Potomac on
a bridge of boats. After Asbby and his men got
to the Ferry the enemy commenced firing on him
across the river, a distance of three hundred
yards, and killed tbe horse of a First Lieutenant.
The tire was returned, one of the enemy being kil
led and five wounded. The Lieutenant’s horse
was replaced by a better one taken from the
; enemy. The latter have a wholesome dread of
Ashbv and his meu, who are encamped two miles
South of Charlestown, Va. Banks has a consider
i able torce ovo miles from Harper’s Ferry. There
! is now, so far as known, no Yankees iu arms on
the Virgiuia side of the Potomac from Martius
burg dowu to Harper’s Ferry, aud but few be
tween that point and Alexandria.
Tub Northwest and West. —The condition of
affairs m the N rthwest remains with no material
alteration since our last Geuerals Lee aud Lor
; ing iue within eight miles of a division of tbe
I enemy, which has been withdrawing till wiihin a
few miles of Huttonsville. The other part of the
forces under Gen. Lee is somewhere beyond Mon
terey. We suppose from the state of the moves
on the chess-board at last dates, we shall hear in,a
short time of uonie decisive action in that part et
the State . Retreats and disasters are no longer
for us, we imagine, in that quarter. It is the
enemy’s turn now.
From the Kanawha Valley we learn that Gen
j eral Floyd, who lead in the advance movement,
was on Suudav on Big Sewell mouDtaiD, some
! thirty miles beyoud Lewisburg, and that General
| Wise was close behind him. The scouts of the
1 enernv had ventured as far as the foot of Sewell,
and a detachment of cavalry, onder Col. Davis,
had a brash with them ou Friday, in which some
of the Ohio swiue. supposed to be nine in number,
were killed. After this reoonoitre, the enemy
fled rapidly. It was supposed the that he would
retreat across the Gauley, and probably attempt
to bold some ot the most defensible positions be
yond it.
Gen. Henningsen passed by the White Sulphur
on Sunday morning, and proceeded, without de
lay, to join the Wise Legion, where he takes com
mand of the regiment heretofore under Colonel
Frank Anderson, a gallant officer, who was with
Walker and General H. in Nicaragua. Colonel
A resigned his commission in favor of the Gene
ral. and accepted the office of Lieutenant Colonel
under him. General H. is aD important acquisi
tion to the Kanawha, and will, no doubt, acquit
himatelf in a manner worthy of his high reputa
tion. .
Tbe reader wi!! see that we have not been very
explicit, but quite enough to show that the enemy
is now on the defensive in the West and North
west, and that we may in good time hear of stir- ,
ring events.
The Blockade. —A Washington despatch dated
August 15th, says :
Besides the hundred vessels chartered in New
York and Philadelphia, quite a large number have
been employed in Baltimore. The steamers Jos.
Whitney, Adelaide and George Peabody, and five
schooners, having been converted into war vessels,
and having taken their armament on board, sailed
from Baltimore yesterday for the sunny South.
Their destinat on at first is Fortress Monroe,
where they will meet another fleet of twelve
steamers and steam tugs, (the latter converted
into gun boats,) from New York. The officer who
l is to command this fleet is now in this city, re
ceiving his orders. He will take with him what
ever vessels may be ready at the Navy Yard here,
one ot which will be hts flag ship.

Tliurloiv Weed and the Cabinet.
In another column will be found a strone and
emphatic article from the Albany Koenin.fi Jonr
not, the organ of Thnrlow Weed, which we com
mend to the special attention of our readers and
the administration ut Washington. It is too good a
thing to be lost; we therefore give it in full. Weed
at length sees, what everybody has been com
plaining about, that the present Cabinet do not
comprehend the great issue of the hour, and hare
been treating this whole war as a grand frolic to
benefit favorites rather than to punish the ene
mies of our country. His denunciation of those
who are responsible for this exceeds that of the
democratic editors, and coming from one who has
been known to hare a view at matters in this ad
ministration which the public generally have not
been permitted to see, we look upon it as only the
commencement of the storm of indignation that
is about bursting forth upou the heads of the dc
partraeuls at Washington, and even Lincoln him
self, unless he inaugurates anew order of things
aud infuses energy into the different departments.
Speaking of the aptitude ot the Government
‘owards traitors and spies in their midst, actually
paying en to furnish the enemy with their
movements, he adds: 41 Hut it njay not be. unpro
fitable to say—and we say it with emphasis—that
;his condition of things is uuendurable, and “ ill
not be endured. 44 In that emphatic expression
the administrat on can see what is brewi tg in
their own household, and announced in a quarter
that it will do well for them to heed. “ We have,”
savs Weed, “a navy” (we think that there must
be some doubt about that)—“a navy which in other
wars was not only our means of defence, our
pride and glory, but the terror of our enemies.”
He further asks : “Has that navy made its mark?”
‘‘Where and in whut wav has it annoyed aud har
assed the enemy?” This, is a question that onr
shipping merchants have long been asking, while
they have continued to demand that additional
vessels should be purchased and placed in the
blockading service.
The imbecility and iucompetency ot a portion
of the present’ Cabinet have for a long time
awakened the serious apprehensions of many of
the leading men of the country. They have felt
the loss of millions upon millions through the in
efficiency of the blockade, and the fact that with
the exception of she short and brilhant campaign
of Gen. McClellan in • > estern Virginia, and the
success of Gen. Lyon in Missoun, disaster has
been our fate everywhere. For all this they con
sider someone at Washington responsible. A
train of events hns traced it to the heads of the
different departments, and it is not all surprising
that the demand for a stop to this boy’s play is
becoming so earnest that even Thurlow Weed
should be compelled to speak out in decisive
tones, declaring that such proceedings will nut
longer be endured. Let the authorities at Wash
ington t ke heed in tune. The public want no
more Big Bethels, Bull Runs, or even such
slaughters as have lost the gallant Gen. Lyon.—
N. f. Herald, 16 th.
Mor* Speculations. —A Washington dispatb of
the 13th, says
Reliable private advices from Texas, dated on
the 23d ultimo, represent the Union sentiment as
rather oi the increase, and this becomes evident
as the true state of the agitating question is better
understood, aod further, that it would extensive,
lv be manifested, could Federal protection be af
forded agaiost the aggressions of the disunists.—
The newspapers of that State have perverted the
statements made by Gen. Houston from time to
time, as it is positively known be has no sympa
thy with secession. At last accounts he was in
quiet seclusion on his farm awaiting events.
The designs of Col. Van Dorn ana other leaders
for the possession of the Northern States of Mexi
co and lower California depend for ther fulfill
ment ou ’he co-operation of the Mexican revolu
tionary chiefs. But so far the secession fillibus
ters have {.not not met with the sympathy they
anticipated from tboee sources

Retaliation oik Missouri Uncolnltea.
The following letters have been directed to bo
made public. Sufficient time has not elapsed to
ascertain what will be Gen. Fremont’s course, but
as he is a man of high position, it is to be hoped
that he may put a stop to the savage proceedings
of his subordinates. Under L cut. Gov. Reynolds’
instructions, Gen. Thompson has placed in close
confinement all his prisoners, some fifty in num
ber, and will hereafter release none on parole.—
Stringent orders have also been issued by Gen.
Thompson to prevent’ any violations of strict
military usages by the forces under his command.
If similar orders aru kssiied by Gen. Fremont, we
may expect to bear of lets outrages in Missouri:
New Madihd, Mo., Aug. 13, 1861.
To Maj. Gen. Fremont, U. S. Army, commanding
■U. S. forces in Missouri:
Sib : Capt. Charles Pricey of the Missouri State
Guard, has received a letter from Messrs. B. S.
Curd and Wm. M. Price, dated* Capo Girardeau,
Aug. 10,1861, in which they write : “The colonel
says that if you attack Commerce to night, he
will hang us.” With the note there is another
recognized to be io the handwriting of Col. C. C.
Marsh, aod of which the following is an exact
copy.:
Hsadquartbrs U. S. ponces, i
Cape Gibakukav, August 10,1861. I
Sir i Your relatives have written you the above
note. It IS true. Ifvou iujure the people of Com
merce or their property, l will hang them and
take a bitter revenge on you iu other respect.
C. C. Marsh,
Col. Commanding U. S. Forces,
Cape Girardeau.
The gentlemen held by Col. Marsh are, as I am
credibly informed citizens of this State, and un
connected in any way with military operations.—
Even were they so connected in a manner justify
iog tbeir being made prisoners of war, the
les of war and army regulations of the Luited
States require humane treatment of prisoners.
I aiso learn that the detachment of Col. Marsh’s
troops which captured Mr. Wm. M. Price, wan
tonly burned hie father’s warehouse, and took
away a large quantity of corn and sixty mules.—
Similar outrages are Oelieved to have been very
lately committed at the farm of Gen. N. W. Wat
kins, near Cape Girardeau, aud also by Col.
Marsh’s troops.
I therefore, in the interest of humanity, lay
these matters before you and request a frank an
swer to these inquiries :
Does tbe conduct of Col. Marsh and his troops
meet yeur approval?
If not, w hat steps do you propose to take in
respect to the gflilty parties and in order to pre- 1
vent the repetition of such conduct?
It is the desire of the Missouri State authorities
to conduct the present war according to civilized >
usages, and any departure from them by Missouri
forces will be promptly punished by their officers,
if aware of it.
I deem it proper to add that ou seeing Col.
Marsh’s letter, 1 immediately instructed the°Gene
ral commanding the Missouri State Guard in this
district to hold in close custody a number of
prisoners recently taken by him and belonging to
your forces. Should Col. Marsh’s further treat- !
ment of Messrs. Curd and Price necessitate the j
hanging of any of those prisoners, in retaliation,
I am content that impartial men shall judge who .
is morally responsible for their melancholy fate, i
I am, Bir, very respectfully, your obedient ser- I
TaDt > Thos. C. Rey.volus,
Acting Governor of Missouri.
To Col. C. C. Marsh, Commanding United States
forces, Cape Girardeau :
Sir : I inclose for your information a copy of
a letter this day addressed by me to Major Gene
ral Fremont.
Thos. C. Rktnolds,
Acting Governor of Missouri.

From Alexandria.— We have through a private
source interesting and iate intelligence from
Alexandria and the adjoining theatre of the war.
Nearly one-half of the resident population of
Alexandria had left thet city. It, is described as
presenting the appearance of deadness and stag
nation iu business and of utter vacancy in its
social life, owing to the severe exclusion of the
population from intercourse with the soldiery.
The news we iiave from the theatre df the wat
adjoining Alexandria is of particular interest.
There were only about 10 regiments in the vicini
ty of the city, and several of them not full. The
three years men who.had been enlisted before the
meeting of Congress, were resolved to claim ex
emption after three month’s service, on tbe ground
that their enlistment for three years was done
without the authority of Congress, ami cannot
hold them.
One regiment, enlisted for three years on tile
23th of June last, was reported by its officers as
intending to disband as soon ns it should com
plete their three months service The army in
Virginia was positively demoralized. Desertions
were numerous, and were assisted in a quiet way
by tbe Alexandria people. As an instance of the
frequency of resignations among commissioned
officers, we are informe ! that, u captain m the
Fifth Maine Regiment confessed to have been the
eighth that had resigned in his regiment since
their rout at Manassas.
On tiie Fairfax Court House road tbe enemy’s
line extended about four miles from Alexandria- -
in other directions about seveu. Ourfoices had
never advanced beyond Fairfax Court-House,
lines of pickets only havingbeen thrown out in ad
vai ce. The receut telegraphic report of the fall
ing back of our force is explained by the circum
stance that some detachnieuts of our forces on the
road to Vienn I bad been withdrawn, on account
of tbe unhealthiness of tbe low grounds and tbe
sickness among the men, to another position.
There was no evidence of advance movements
in our lines. It was reported in Alexandria that
.McClellan refused to consider himself on the de
fensive, and contemplated an advauce in the di
rection of Fairfax Court-House.— Hithmond Ex
aminer, 211*.
On the Breenmvb Tbe Baltimore Exchange
seye:
Tbe precautions taken by General McClellan to
strengthen tbe forces ou or near the line of the
Potomac north of Washington, were not taken
a whit too soon. Confederat sin large numbers,
some say as many as 23,000, are encathped iu va
rious places between Berry viile and Tenallytown.
it is supposed that tiieir intention is to cross into
Maryland. Skirmishes occur nightly, and the
sentinels aro frequently shot while on guard.
There is now at Teuallytown nine regiments of
Federal troops, and so great is their apprehen
sion of danger, that an entire re iment is select
ed for picket duty every night. ,
Every day troops are marching north and ires
of Georgetown, for the purpose of strengthening
the frontier in that direction, as .well os of “• ,
