Tile Abolitionists.
In a late number of the New York
Herald it is contended that the abolition
ists have caused this war, and that they
are now interfering with its success, by
“intensifying the rebellion” on the one
hand, by their attitude against slavery j
while, on the other hand, they represent
the war as hopeless, and thus discourage
enlistments and “damp the ardor of tho
nation.” It says it is tho duty of the
government “to arrest their revolutiona
ry career before it is too late.”
It is a wonder the Herald did not take
this view of the matter at an earlier day;
and inasmuch as the “abolition party,”
of which Mr. Lincoln is tho representa
tive, is responsible for tho “rebellion,”
why did not the Herald advoealo the
“extermination” of the abolitionists in
the Spring of 18GI, instead of waging
a free negro crusade of subjugation
against ten millions of free people ?
’Disasters”
The New York Herald of the 21th ult.,
after a long and somewhat dolorous ac
count of tho recent “rebel raid” at Cat
lett’s station, says :
“Wa presume that the army of Gob.
Pope is perfectly safe, that it has come
to a stand (after several days of unpar
alleled runniDg, we presume,) and that it
will soon be ready, in conjunction with
tho army of Gen. MoClellan, for an ad
vance, comprehensive, irresistible, over
whelming and decisive, in the annihila
tion of the rebel army of Virginia, and
in tho extinguishment of this rebellion.
Rut let us have no more of these Catlett’s
station and Manassas disgraces.”
“No more of Bull Run retreats and
Ball’s Bluff disasters,” has long been
the watch word of the Yankees. They
may now add Shiloh, Chickahominy,
Seven Pines, Richmond, Catlett’s station,
Cedar Run, Manassas and a half dozen
other “disasters” to those of Bull Run
and Bail’s Bluff.
Conscription.
Hon. E. S. Dargan, M. C. from the
Mobile district of Alabama, writes to the
Mobile Tribune from Richmond, under
date of Sept. Ist, as follows:
It is now ascertained that Lincoln has
raised his 300,000 volunteers, and his
draft will be enforced. I say it is ascer
tained : I ought to say that it is believed
here, and it is also believed that 300,000
more will be raised by draft. Under
these circumstances, it is certainly the
duty of Congress to increase the army
as far as we can, otherwise subjugation,
yea, the ruin of our country, would
seem not improbable. This, then, we
must do. But how increased, I do not
clearly know. I think the President
will be authorized either by requisition
on the States, or by calling out all liable
to military duty, to the extent of 250,-
000 or 800,000. The subject of exemp
tion will come up and be considered in or
connected with the bill.
But it is useless to suppose that we
can meet the enemy sueoessfully, if they
should thus increase their force, by the
force wo now have between the ages of
18 and 35 ; and Congress would not per
form their duty to tho country if they
should leave the President powerless to
increase the army further, or to call into
service those over 35 and under 45.
This power, iu some shape, must be giv
en ; but the exemption law must be in*
creased and modified.
I should regret to hear that my con
stituents were opposed to the increase of
the army, to meet the increased hordes
that seem about to invade our country,
and 1 infer that yon only oppose a par
ticular mode of increasing tho army, and
not the increasing itself.
Prophetic.
A correspondent of the Wilmington
Journal makes the following prediction:
I am not a prophet, nor am I the son
of a prophet, but I now predict that one
of the consequences of this war will be,
that in three years from the end thereof
there will not be a free negro in Amcri
ica ; that our institution of slavery will
be established on a more firm basis than
ever; that tho Northern States Rights
party will get into power as soon a3 the
elections roll round; the Abolitionists
will be huntedtlown like mad dogs, and
the whole civilized world will become
satisfied that our slaves are in the very
condition for whioh nature designed
them. Mark the prediction.
From the New York World.
Our Great Disaster 111 Virginia
The rebels could have afforded to pay
ten millions of dollars for the results
accomplished by their cavalry raid on
General Pope’s headquarters ut Catlett’s
Station, Friday night. They took pos
session of our camp, pillaged and plun
dered to their hearts’ content, and be
sides the lives, money, horses and per
sonal effects lost, General Pope lost tho
mustor rolls of his army, all his private
papers, copies of dispatches and reports,
memoranda of the campaign and the
past and present condition cf the army,
copies of all the telegrams which he has
sent to Washington since his taking his
• present command, all the dispatches re
ceived from tho President, General Hal
leck, General McClellan, General Burn
sine and the War Dapartment, copies of
all the orders issued to his Generals of
corps and division, all his maps and
topographical charts, and, in short every
record and piece of information which
any one could desire to have who wished
to know, with perfect accuracy and de
tail, the past history and futuro plans
cf the campaign, the numbers and dis
position of our troops, and the purposes
of the War Department and tho Gener
als. If these had all been destroyed by
fire the loss would havo been most ser
ious, aud would havo greatly retarded
the prosecution of the war. Captured
aud possessed by the enemy, their loss
is incalculable. If tho little driblets of
information which careless correspond
ents have suffered to leak out in their
letters was so valuable to the enemy as
to make it wise for General Pope to ex
clude them from his lines, and keep the
millions to whom the lives and deeds of
our soldiers are precious iu utter ignor
ance and almost insupportable suspense,
how valuable to the enemy must have
been the possession of all the informa
tion which Qen. Pope and his staff have
acquired and possess. President Lin
coln himself could now tell Jefferson
Davis aud his generals nothing concern
ing our army in Virginia which they do
not already know. The loss, we repeat,
is incalculable. Unless our force is so
strong that such perfect knowledge of
our purpose by the enemy is no detri
ment to their successful execution, tho
whole plan of the campaign must bo
changed. It will hardly do to say that
we arc thus strong when the loss met
with occurred during a retreat.
This loss is so stunning and so com
plete that the report of it would hardly be
credited did it come in any doubtful
shape. But our own special correspond
ent, who with all other members of tho
press was about being excluded from Gen.
Pope’s lines, was present aud a witness
to the raid. lie and one other corrcs.
pondent were the only members of the
prosa then and there present. Ilis letter,
which we published yesterday, aud which
created such a profound regret throughout
the city is amply confirmed, not by tele
grams, from Gon. Popo’s new headquar
ters —for it is notorious that nothing can
he trusted which comes to the public from that
source, and that however eloquent he may be
over fictitious victories, he is silent over real
disasters— but it is confirmed by his own
verbal statements and the statements of
others who reached tho city yesterday
from tho field of battle.
Tho cause of this shameful disaster is
single and plain. Gen. Pope’s headquar
ters were not and never have been guard
ed. To surprise was as easy as to find
them. The rebels knew the fact. It was
his headquarters for which they proclaim
ed themselves iu search. They found them,
ransacked them as they pleased, and went
away in safety. There is no doubt upon
this point. A correspondent of the Tri
bune says:
“Probably the whole might have been
saved and the attack repulsed if thore
had been pickets or even Bentries about
the camp. But there has not been a guard
mounting at headquarters since Gen. rope
took the field, a piece of carelessness for
which he has paid a heavy penalty.
Substitutes,
The following is the bill in refereuoc
to substitutes, as passed by tho Senate
on Monday last:
Sec. 1. The Congress of the Confederate
Stales do enact, That hereafter substitutes
for persons liable to military duty, shall
not be allowed, except in cases where tho
person offering tho substitute is skilled,
and actually employed in some mechan
ical pursuit, the prosecution of which,
at the time, tho War may
declare to be important to tho public in
terest, Provided, That in all cases where
substitutes are received, tho person fur
nishing the substitute shall guarantee
his fidelity, and in ease he deserts, the
principal shall be held to servico, as if no
substitute had been furnished by him.
Sec. 2. That the Secretary of War and
commanaufs of brigades and divisions
shall detail to any farm'or plantation
worked by slaves, when the owner there
of is a femme sole, a minor, or a person
in the service of tho Confederacy, one
enrolled private for police duty thereon,
and to act as overseer, under the direc
tion and control of the owner thereof, or
his legal representative ; Provided, That
said detail be made upon tho application
and designation of the owner, or the
representative of the owner of the farm
or plantation, and that the person so de
tailed shall be withdrawn upon a like ap
plication of such owner or his represen
tative. And provided further, That Baid
private shall not, whilst so detailed, re
ceive any pay or allowance from the gov
ernment, but shall be paid by the owner
of the farm or plantation an amount to
be agreed upon by them . and when re
called, said detailed private shall imme
diately proceed to brigade hoadquarters
and report for duty, under tho penally
of being punished as a deserter.

rer makes tho following Blnlemont:
“Falls Church has been evacuated by our
troops. The wounded at the hospitals
at Falls Church havo arrived. The Wash
ington Railroad bridge at Bull Run baa
again been destroyed by tho Rebels.
“Stonewall Jackson is on Ids way to
Baltimore, via Leesburg, with 40,000
men. lie intends crossing near Edwards’
Ferry. The latest from General Pope’s

ton.
“Washington, Sept. 2.— The city to
night is in a state of great excitement,
and not without cause. Last night there
was a scries of skirmishing aloDg the
wholo front, during which we lost two of
our best Generals and other valuable of
ficers—Kearney and Stevens. It is sta
ted Hooker’s brigade drove the rebels
back, but this mile of skirmishing was
attended with great loss of life. At 4
o’clock this morning a train of 100 com
missary wagons was intercepted by tho
enemy betwcon Fairfax and Centreville,
and driven off towards Manassas before
it could bo overtaken. When this raid
on our rear at Centreville was known,
the necessity of guarding that direction
caused our whole army to abandon Cen
trcvillo, and it was marched this side of
Fairfax Court House. This morning it
again marched, and by evening the ad
vance was in sight of Munson’s Hill.
The rebel cavalry followed at a distance,
but made no attack. To-day tho Gov
ernment is exerting every energy for the
city’s defense.
New York, Sept. 3. — Tho Tribune’s
Washington correspondent says the la
test trustworthy news from the front was
brought by a Surgeon who left Fairfax
C. 11. at 9 o’olook, Monday night. Af
ter midnight the enemy was still pur
suing, or threatening to pursue. Gen.
■Lee was believed to havo moved his
troops on a little river turnpike, which
run to the North of Centreville from
Gum Springs, through Germantown to
Fairfax C. H. Ample preparations havo
been made to meet him, and tho proba
bilities were that there would boa great
battle fought Tuesday or Wednesday.—
Reports brought by other officers was
the enemy had fallen back with
his wholo army for lack of supplies,
being satisfied with what he had al
ready accomplished, or at least feeling
himself unable to accomplish more.—
There is no doubt there was heavy skir
mishing between our foroes and tho reb
els advance or our outposts last night.
This, Tuesday morning, reports are not
yet accessable.
Philadelphia, Sept- 3. The dis
patch telegraphed from hero on Monday,

other purpose than to appease the mob.

every time-laat night cotoDletcly routed
their whole army. God has most gra
ciously precerved mo again, for I have
been in every fight, and get not a scratch
except a few holes through my clothes!
Our regiment lost seventy-five killed and
ftoueded. The boys fought elegantly.
Ihe enemy had 150,000, and we about
100,000. I think we will capture a ma
jority of their army as we are in full
chase after them. We had balls flying
around us like hail and, worst of all, wc
were fired into by two brigades of our
own. Lieut. Evans arrived here yester
day and was in the fight. Poor Ed.
Lewis, was killed while skirmishing
with the enemy, on yesterday. Seven
wero wounded in my company—none
mortally, viz: Harris, Kimbrough, C.
Wilder, Ellis, Branden, Adkins, and
McDonald. All the balance safe.”

Gen. Pope ou the Decline.
Tho New York World, commenting on
the lalo disasters of the Federal army in
Virginia, says;
“Prosidct Lincoln will give just woight
to the bad Generalship whioh left the
gallant General Banks to bo defeated at
Cedar Mountain, for it is incrodible that
he can havo been deceived by the tele
grams with which it was attempted to
amuse and appease the public, or that
Ucu. Popo’s act in returning to his bri
gado oommanders tho lists of killed,
wounded and missing, sent in by thorn,
as incorrect and exaggerated, can have
blinded the President’s eyes any more
than it did theirs to the measuro of our
disaster and tho plentiful lack of Gene«
ralship which caused it. The President
knows also how tho discipline of Gen.
Pope’s army has deteriorated since he
took tho field. He knows the causes of
this deterioration, and the country will
confidently hopo that these too will have
just woight in his decision upon the fu
turo command of the army of Virginia.
