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. If” returned home, and soon sfter called on Col.

For bis gallant ser vice ho was honored with a national reputation, and the office of United State* Marshal of Texas was given him by President Pierce. When Mr. Buchanan dicided to send an nrroy to put down rebellion in Utah, Gen. McCulloch was appointed oue of tbe Peace Commissioners to Halt Lake, und served the Government most acceptably in 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.

I know that high officials here believe such to be the fact, and the members of the Cabinet seem highly gratified. It is currently reported here that the French Emperor, on learning the new* of the Battle of Munats. as Flams, forthwith determined to recog nize the Southern Confederacy. This intelligence comes by the last steamer. The French Consul here has received a dispatch announcing the arrival of a French war frigate at Norfolk. Congress has to day had under consideration the bill providing for the sequestration of the property of alien enemies. This bill was frameu at* i retaliates measure to effect the “ Coofisca tio : Act ” of the Hump Cougress. I* will un doubtedly pass. Col. John B Grayson, formerly of the U. S.

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 houoc* cn ihe right The survivors of the boat’s 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 beymour and Thomas Talley, seaiheu. 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. The propeller Resolute again went down the Potomac this afternoon. The steaafbr Mount > ernoa, which came up, reports all quiet on the rive-. fas Order to t *. oevxnti Ninth New Tore.

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) is ordered to the North American station. We are preparing enormous reinforcements to protect British commerce against the blockade, wnich is both illegal and inefficient. There are only ten weeks’ consumpton of cotton m tbe country. tven if you should whip Gen. Beauregard, he need ouly to retire and await events. There is no possibility of getting a loan here, so Mr. Chase must depend on what be can get at home. Bkowxlow’s Ksovjluk Whig— Thx Freedom or thi Paras.—A gentleman of great intelligence, residing in this city, recently had a conversation with President I)svis, in which accidental allusion was mads to the rumored intention of the govern ment to suppress the Knoxville Whig, owing to advocacy of Unionism.

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.

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. — it'as/milU Union.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 Names.

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.

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 “• , a complete chain of communication wmb t * 1 Ferry, by way of the Potomac, B®**Railroad, branches of the Baltimore and Ohio When this has been done, an attack up „ nite |_ from this side would b 8 otte ' jd t b e direction more difficulty than an advance U ‘ a| rflronfr | y of Arlington Heights would be. ‘ dl , B bova entreuched positions have com p!eted as Georgetown, and others wnl won as possible. joints prepared to The Confederates are at a hail their receive the enemy, and Mw j , h for an . visit as a “ eIC ?
