prop k* to Ay this by recogouing,obeying and i

and in ate.:, deling;theta 1
1 stapd upon the law of the land. The hum
hleit bas a dear right to invoke in# protection
•nd support against.oven # the highest. That ,
aw —in strict accordance with Ac law of Nation#
of Nature, and of k God—declare*, that every
traitor now engaged in the infernal work ol das
troying our ooaotry has forfeited thereby all
claim of color of right lawfully to hold human
os mgs fin slavery. I ask of you u clear and
public recognition thut this law is to be obeyed
wherever the nationnl A authority Is reapeoted. I
cite to you Instances wherein men fleeing from
bondage to traitors to the protection of our flag
have been assaulted, wounded and murdered by
soldiers of the Union —unpunished and unrebuked
by your General commanding— that i l
is your duty to take action in tho premises—
action that will oause tbe law to be proclaimed
and obeyed wherever your authority or that of
the Union is recognixod us paramount. Tho
rebellion ie strengthened, the National caused is
imperiled, by every hour .1 delay to strike treason
this staggering blow.
When Fremont proclaimed freedom to tho
slave* of rebels, y.iu aoMtramnd him to modify
his proclamation into rigid accordance with the
terms of the existing law. It was your clear
right to do so. I now ak of you conformity to
the principle so sternly enforced upon him. I
ask you to instruct yuur generals aud commo
dores thut no loyal person—certainly none will
ing to render service to the national cause—la
henceforth to he regurded as the slave of auy
traitor. While no rightful government was ever
before assailed by so wanton and wicked u re
bellion as that of the slaveholders against our
National life, I am sure none ever before hesita
ted at so simple and primary an aot of self de
rfaTv chattel servitude co inose wno are
wading through seaa of blood to subvert aud
destroy it. Future generations will With diffi
culty realise that there could have been hesitation
on this point. Sixty yoars of general ami bound
less subserviency to the slave power do not ade
quately explain it.
Mr. President, I beseech you to open your
eyes to tho fact that the devotees of slavery
everywhere- -jost as much in Maryland as in
Mississippi, in Washington an in Richmond—are
to-day your enemies and the implacable foes of
every effort to re establish the national authority
by the discomfiture of its assailants. Thoir
President is not Abraham Lincoln, but Jefferson
Pavia. You may draft them to nerve in the war;
but they will only light under the rebel flag.—
There is not in New York to-dey a man who
really believes in slavery, loves it, and desires its
perpetuation, who heartily desires the crushing
out ot rebellion, lie would much rather save tho
Republic by buying up and pensioning oil iu
assailantA. His “Union as it was” is a Union of
which you wore not President, and no one who
truly wished freedom to nil ever would be.
If these are truths, Mr. President, they are
surdy of tho gravest importance. You cannot
safely approach the groat and good end you so
intently meditate by shutting your eyes to them.
Your deadly foe is not blimlod by any mist in
which your eyes may be enveloped. Jie walks
straight to his goal, knowing wsil hi* weak point,
and most unwillingly betraying bis fesr that you
too may roe and take advantage of it. God grant
that his apprehension iuy prove prophetic.
That you may not unseasonably perceive these
vital truths as they will shine forth on the pages
ol History—that they may bo read by our chib
(iron irradiated by the glory of our National
salvation, not rendered lurid by the blood-TTd
glow of National conflagration and ruin—that
you may promptly and that
slavery is to be vanquished only by Liberty—is
tho forvont aud anxious prayer of
Yours, truly, Hokacm Gherlky.

ffllffl-SIX HTCHKU BATTMS.
It of lato to.apeak of tho
present war as tbn greatest known in history.
Yet wo doubt whether its real vastoess is ge <-r
ally appreciated. It is true that in other tvar*
larger armies may have boon Asemblud; but
there has been no war which, in the extent of the
territory over which it has raged, in the zoos
tho armies employed on either side, in tho uiag
nitude of the operations, and tho quick sucecs•
don of battles, ha* been at all comparable ,vi:h
the one in which we uro engaged. In modern
t o*®* tI” impossible to rival the numbers that
followed Norxes into Greece, or that Tataerlano
and Genghis Khan led from the centre to tho ox
tremittee of Asia. But neither the times nor tho
circumstance permit analogies to be drawn with
those cases. If wo compare this struggle with
the conflicts in which Europe was engaged during
the wars of Napoleon, we ahull find that those
were intorior in many of tho element* wo have
specified. The armies were large - toward tho
end immense—but the area over which tho wars
wero waged wa* comparatively p ■ all, operations
wero more oirouatseribed in their nature, and
tbo contest was genorally terminated by a single
battle, after half a dozen minor ooiubats.
Last year our military operations wero ohnrn
turned by un unaccountable lassitude. Thor**
wore only four battles of importance during th*
campaign Manassas, Oak Hill, Belmont aim
Leesburg. This year, on the contrary, there has
been a rapid suooopdion of battles, which, wo
believe, Is not equalled in history. Since tho Ist
of May thero have been twenty-six pitched but
ties, to sky nothing of tho naval attacks on
Vicksburg and Drewry'* Blurt - , and tho encoun
ter betwoon the Arkansas and tbo enemy's fleet
ou the Mississippi. The following is the series

A Uw|e kehuS ike Hekel Any...lke Strtifth of
Ike Rebel Army Lufflinl*l...lll Trie.Coekiuei,
Under this htad the New York Tribune draws
aside thj curtain, and makes the following
“ glimpse behind tbe rebel lines?”
A little drawing aside of the curtain which
has hiddon the battle fields from our sight has
given us a glimpse behind the rebel lines. Words
dropped and stories told by our men who havo
been released from esptivity, and tbe sad sight
of the hunger worn, tired,'battle worn eoldiers,
and the corroborating admissions of rebel pris
oners give us a sharper, eoberer pioture of tbe
rebel condition then we,have been wiling tomako
tor ourselves. The panic stricken wretches, wbo
.•iiuiv 11r.,t from a battle and last on u marcb ;
have been all along spreading stories that our
enemy was fresh whan we were weary, well
and when we went hungry, that he had all
talent for victory, all chance of soooess, and
that from the Uapidan to the banks of the
l’otomac, he bad crushed overwhelmed us by
Id* fearful aupretuacy of numbers.
Are intrudes performed be God for the ben
’ fit of the enemy ? Has he plaoed the .spring
of eternal youth by their paths, so that they can
drink and he new men? Is it given to them and
their boasts to live without or sleep ? And
it not, why should Northern papers say, and
Northern people believe, that Jackson anu Leo
ure heading an army great in nmubera aa a
swarm of locusts, thoroughly supplied with pro
visions, and better or as well armed as our own ?
Why? Because the blind guides forbid the papers
’ftosj-fik; BuYbio^.’
from the heated bed of a fctnoihtredfpubUe im
agination.
The enemy has no more men, not so much
ordnance, uor provisions, nor transportation
facilities, nor nearly so much encumbering bag
guge, but he has outgeneralled us from dlaugb
tor Mountain to Kdwards’ Ferry, end Godknows
but be will do so hereufter. Make your display
of capital headings lo.oor war news, harp upon
our driving the enemy a mile this morning, and
r>ur rods the day after to-morrow, but take your
map and see how that enemy hasjoiowded us
miioi upon miles, and [leagues upon leagues,
‘' , ia Culpepper to the very gates of tie Capital,
flanking us at will on the right and he left...
. M oo how wo have gone tlg-iag day Jter day,
repelling fomls that some of our Uuerels be’
lioved real attacks, sacrificing brave mn by huo
• Iredd to no stores .hat might
have been saved, losing men that nwerthouid
have been taken prieoners,
that should have been held. Bee hor pursuing
Uie even course of a fixed and defltiili purpose,
thocDomy has baffled our oounsels, wasted vic
tory idter victory from us, anti is n<w threat
cniog Baltimore and Washington. This is the
plain unvarnished truth; we have bem whipped
by.un inferior force of inferior men; better ban
died than our own. A few fkets fs>a the per-*
moiim! experience of our officers receitiy oaptured
und just released on and without farole, show
that tho condition of the rebel arm, is actually
not so good as our own.

which were unanimously Adopted :

which German Jews are dsnounced inunmeas

This wholesale shlider, persecution and
denunciation of a peojie, many of whom are
pouring out their blooi on the battle fiylda ol
their country, in delet eof civil and religiouH
liberty, is at war wit the spirit of the age—

they ure flushed with hope ami confident-'’ , •
but their purpo-e is uu stronger now thau

peaceful secession, and then a peaceful sur !
render of the North under the name of recon

practical result.can be achieved without sep

The English journals continued to canvais ;

over into the loyal states to ravage, depopulate

is a cause for this state of facts, not resting
upon a want of courage on the part of North

of the armies of tbe South, but it i* to be

Pulifj of Ike War,
The Northern paper-* announce, pemi orticially,
with a great flourish of trumpets, that u perfect
j accord now exists between Mr. Staunton anu
j General McClellan, and that henceforth there is
! to be a decided and unan.inous war policy. Tho
I Washington correspondent of tbo N-w York Tri
j buno, alluding to the report, write* :
j Tho talk in military circles is that promptness
is to L infused Into our military movement* and
! new en'liJsiiMin into the army. I pray God it
! may be *, but such commencements have been
made before, only to bo followed by some new
blun ler <r a fresh contrariety of counsel and
action at tho very moment that unanimity and
decision wore most needed. The fact, however
) is well authenticated that Mr. Staunton and Uen‘
! MoOMlan have had u friendly, personal intcr-
I viow, and (but the campaign in Matyland or
! Pennsylvania, wherever General McClellan may
j over;nko the rebel forces, is to bo confided to him
with the most unrestricted powers, and that al(
| hit military movements are to be t upper ted by
I the greatest concentration of men and means
that the government ran bring t<• bear.
J Thu fact is that lato events in tho field in front
! <d Washington, have brought more than one hip,h
personage t their senses, and made them
realize that the time for conducting tho war on a
pettifogging partisan basis hai passed, and
h* ncofonh there must be more singleness of
purpose, more unanimity of counsel, and more
eneigy of action, or the cause of the Republic wil|
be lost. Our honest, conscientious, and some
times too complaisant President, has even for
gotten his own chosen*priaciilo that “one bi and
general is beitcr than two good ones,” and in the
late actions in Virginia has given ua two bad
generals, whose commingled blunders placed us
in a position desperate indeed, and involved a
threatened catastrophe that was only averted by
General iiallock’s decided order that the army
I should fall back upon Washington.

There were peoflie who thought that the

she prudently disguised it. She said she would

saw her out with the same coolness na if she

The Northern paper* are speculating a* to the
J number* and probable in a omen ts of our army
in Maryland. A correspondent of the New York

the pyNition of our lureou and tho programme
which they will probably aim to curry out.
The rebel forces now operating on the Poto
{ mac and in Maryland are one hundred and
! eigti.'y thousand strong, d.vi led into thieo corps
i d’armw, each of nearly cvual strength—about
; MXty thousaul. Jackson command* that in
i Maryland--consisting of tho dvisions of Long-
I -trec r, Hill. Walker, and that lately commund
< and I y Taliaferro, which is Jackson’* original
j division. These force* hold tho line of tho Po
i t<mc and Monocacy river* from Edwards’
* Kerry to the headwater* of the latter strem, in
I the direction of Hagerstown and Westminster.
Tho corps undo£Lee’* immediate command
! i- iuprise* the divisions of A. P. Hill, that lately
i commanded by Ewell, and numerou* other in
dependent brigades, numbering between fi s ty
! itnd MXty thousand men. It eccupies both
; sides of the Potomac Dora the upper end of
i Harrison’s Island to Berlin—between Point of
. Rocks and Harper's Ferry and holds all the
i lord* and ferries in that distance. Each portion
h in close proximity to the river, ami can cross
r pidly to the opposite side. They are reported
I to bo constructing pontoon bridges at various
• points, and erecting batteries ou Virginia
side commanding them.
The third corps d’armie i* held in reserve
and also to protect the line of communication
’ and retreat of the whole. It consists of three
•livisious of about twenty thousand each—ono at

around that place aud Ceutreville, at or near

Th Panic in Soath?rn Pennsylvania.

Our people arc aware of their danger, and on
Thursday la*t 4 the offi t r f the Bank of Cham
bersburg, ns a matter of pTecautiou, transferred
their specie nnd other valuables tu the keeping
of the Harrisburg Bank. On Saturday the Ha
gerstown Bank removed its sioie East, and on
Sunday and yesterday the Hagerstown Savings
Bunk a* and the Washington County Bank did
likewise.
On Saturday the Cumberland Valley railroad
became satiftkd that it would be unsafe to leave
their enginoa and cars over night at Hagers
town. and ou Sun Jay morning about 2 o’clock
they were all brought down here, with a large
number of Union refugees from Frederick And
Washington countie#, Mirylund.
On Sabbath a train again ventured to Hagers
town, intending to remain over night, but it wa#
reared away about one o'clock on Monday mor
ning. by report* of the near approach of Genoral
Stuart, with 6,000 rebel cavalry. He has not,
however, reached Hagerstown a# yet. On Sab
bath, too, tho United States Commissary removed
ail th# public stores from Hagerstown to thie
point, and the samo day a battery of eight gun#
arrived here, and were shipped by rail to Balti
more. The .ame evening the remnant of tbo
twenty-ninth regiment Pennsylvania volunteers
arrived near our town and eneamjed. These
thing* looked as if the Government intended to
ovaeuate Western Maryland, and deliver it over
to rebel rale without a struggle. Tho cons#-
quince was, that the soce##ionits in the neigh
boring counties in Maryland lec&m# bold, exul
tant, and defiant, and th# Union people were
compelled to floe for aalety, and many of them
aro now here, not feeling it safe to return to their
bonus until they know what course the rebel
forces will take.
