\7AR I.EW3. We bare given in our previous papers the principle items of the events that have transpired, from telegraphic dispatches, as far as we thought them reliable. We are uow enabled to give many ol the details and incidents, which will be interest ing to all our readers. FirM Movfwent of thr Grand Any, To put down the rebels is thus announced Irom Washington on the 17th, in the A T ew York herald , from their special correspondent. It was organ ized in several columns, ala Scott, after the SeJii oies in l lorida. Nothing but that could exceed’ the pericctiou of the present arrangements :—Also something of its return. •‘The tormal movement across the Potomac was inaugurated on a gingantic scale to day. At an early hour the troops were mustered in everv camp, and their arms and accourtrement put in the finest order. The bands played their most inspiring airs, and thousands of citizens and stran gers poured forth to witness the imposiug specta cle. About oue o'clock Gen. Scott and staff crossed the river, preceding the most of the regi meats. The eight was most impressive and grand. The aged General seemed to have renewed his youth. Hu suowy locks were the only evidence of his veuerable age. His eyes sparkled with the tire w hich a confidence of hi* cause had enkindled, and his almost giant stature reudered him conspic uous among the officers around him. The stran ger could not mistake the Chief. The demonstration, considered only as pageant, was most sucessful, and the public are nearly as enthusiastic as over the news or even the sight of some hotly contested battle. All seem to think that the Rubicon has now been passed and the war actually begun. There are at present fifty-five regiments between the Potomac and Fairfax Court House. The Ohio regiments are with the most advanced columns. Ihe advance of the whole corp* tTarmee, consti tuting the column under the command of Brigadier General McDowell has thus far proved a triumph ant march. All that was expected or hoped to he accomplished to day was done, and almost without the firing of a gun. The Rebels have fled trom their entrenchments, and Fairfax Court House, the late headquvtt -rs of Gen. M. S. Bon ham, of South Carolinia, in our possession. The Alabama and Carolina brigades, and a whole body of Rebels in that neighborhood—variously estima ted at from ten to fifteen thousand—took to their heels, and failed to offer any serious opposition to the advancing Union army. The success of the movement was complete. The order had been given for the several divi sions to make the attack upon the entrenched lines />f the Rebels at about the same time—oue o'clock P. M.—and,promptly at one o’clock P. M. all the enemy’s works in the neighborhood of Fairfax Court House were in our possession. The advance was made hy four different routes leading towards Fairfax Court House and directly to Centreville. The right wing, composed of the first division, lour brigades, under the command of Gen. Tyler, of Connecticut, proceeded by the Georgetown turn pike. The center, composed of the second divi sion, two brigades, under Col. Hunter, C. S. army, proceeded by the Leesburg or Centreville road. The left wing was composed of the third division, three brigades, under Col. S. P. Heintzleman, U. S. army ; aud the fifth division, two brigades, under Col. Dixon S. Miles, U. S. army. The fifth divi sion proceeded by the old Braddock road, and the third by the Li'tie River turnpike. The fourth division, under Gen. Runyon, of New Jersey, con stituted the reserve. There were in the whole column sixty two regiments about fifty-five thou satui no ‘ id in-tin- in robing divisions an ag gregw in ol iurty -L.w -iiooaund. Upon all these roads the Rebels had placed ob structions within a radius of three miles from Fairfax C. H., the headquarters of Gen. Bonham, of South Carolina, who is styled in the orders of ih Rebel Commander in-Cbief, “the commandant r A the advance guard of the Potomic.” There was wort for the skirmishers upon all the roads, but in cverf instance, as soon as the head of the ad vancing column made its appearance the Rebel .force retreated hastily, and in evident confusion. The details of the grand pageant thus continue n substance —Gen. McDowell proceeds at the head of the column—three miles from Fairfax Court House encountered a barricade of trees —clears uu: the road aud proceeds—encounters two other k>a. icades —walked around one of them—saw no tharp looters —one mile from the Court House saw 200 rebel ca?ry —they looked at him and tied —and near the Court House found a deserted e urenchment —a rebel officer was captured and some provisions aud camp utensils, and a Rhode Island corporal wounded—soon after a firing of skirmishers was heard—all was joy aud exaltation —the men pressed forward— “ Eagerly, singing ‘Dixie’ and the ‘Star Spangled Banner.’ It was cheering to observe the enthusi asm exhibited by these volunteers, and quite amusing to hear their remarks, such as, *We are going to open a mail route from Washington to Richmond ‘We have come to Virginia to find a place to eettle, ;’ * We mean to bag Beauregard aid Jeff. Davis;’ 4 We are the pacificators;’ * They wou’t trait for us,’ etc.” What was to be the song on “the return” was not indicated, or the time thought of, to which they would march-wbetherit would be a triumphal, double quick, or a dead march—whether their arms would be at a shoulder, reverse, or no arms at all—or what would be the best use of the mail route they left in their rear. They surveyed with their eyes their farms where they would settle when their triumph was over, not anticipating other ground on which they might soon settle. It was a dreatu of glory too fair to be rudely spoiled. The greatest ambition was, who should “ bag Jeff. Davis and Gen Beauregard.” The march was accomplished to Fairfax Court House- the rebel flag was taken down and given to Gov. Sprague, of Rhode Island. It was a trohpy to him, but a sad event for bis horse, which died of a cannon bail two days afterwards. Most affec tionate tenders for a re union were made to all rebels, which they could not fail to appreciate, by oesfwiiling every species of their property, robbing their stores and burning their houses. Gen. Tyler halted his column for the night at Germantown. The force under Gen. McDowell were halted be fore reaching Centerville, very much “ incensed and disappointed at having coine so far over a dusty road, without being able to thrash the rebels that day.” The cause was simply, as it would ap pear, that the rebels had selected their own ground and time where to decide which party should be thrashed. They consoled themselves with the pleasant dream, that they “would renew the foot race after them towards Richmond in the morning.” The departure of the “right wing” from Arling ton House, is thus chronicled: “ Precisely at 2 o'clock uO.tHM) ioc-a composing the Grand Army, about entering upon the jreat irorl of eveepiug *ece*ioH ffoin the Old Dominion forever, took up their line of march.” The road, they said, was rough, but the music and the banners “ made it an inspiring and animated scene.” The principle incidents of the march of this wing, were, that some country people “ looked at them in amaze ment, and others in hostile sullenneaa.” The right wing found a convenient place to laj themselves “down to sleep;” (forgetting that little prayer ac companying it,) and thus closed their first day’s operations of subduing into loviug fraternity and union that little extent of territory lying between the Potomac and the Rio Grande. Thus far, says the Chronicler, it had “proceeded gloriously. A great Tictory and splendid triumph had been achieved.” It is not more improbable that one of the Geoerals should dream something of a Southern Railroad, than it is, that Geu. Scott should, in his dreams, swear with Kiug Richard, “ Xow, by St. Faul, iny work goes bravely on”— never dreaming that Floddenfield, or even “ Bull's Run” was ahead. The details of the movements and advecturea of the “Grand Army,” on the second day, need not be fully enumerated. Ita route was frequently obstructed with fallen trees, and the delicate nerves often disgusted with the smell of gunpow der. Rut iu onward progress in exterminating Recession from Virginia, was such, that Ere the vet of aun, They heard—tta roaring of Bull a—Ran, and some scouts and skirmishers were seen and the usual compliments of soldiers exchanged.— Hat of the events of the next day, we leare it to history to tell— and to the mercy of Newspaper Reporters for the present, as there the Chronicler closes—seemingly with & dream of “floating on a summer’s sea of glory"—from which he never awoke. He bad been, thus far, as well satisfied as was Banyan’s Pilgrim among the “ Delectable Mountains.” Suffice it to say, that owing to the Stubbornness of the villainous Seceders the “Grand Army” did not sleep iu Richmond that night. And their admirable wisdom was now evident, by their having left the mail route in their rear to Washington, and fifty thousand sol diers competing which should first carry the news over it. If the Zouaves looked at their farms on their return, it b presumed that they concluded they produced too many thorns and thistles and bayonets for their use; and that it was very pro voking to the poor “ Pet Lambs,” that so many had been made mutton of, by poaching three davs on Virginia farms. There seemed to be but little music among them now, except the clanking of a few hundred hand • cnjfs which they dropped in their haste, and the echo of their song when they were making the mail route. Echo —We are off from *• Dixies Lard.” Away, away, as fast as we can, We that have iega, on which to stand. We couldn’t wait for the wagon. As they “spread themselves,” in flying past Cen treville, to carry the news of their victory to Washington, a few snatches of suppressed lament were audible—“ Fifty baskets of Champagne left behind—much cold turkey, cakes, bread and but ter—not time to call for them—away, away from Dixie Land.” Away in the stilly hours of the night, the keeper ot the l<ong Bridge over the Potomac heard a migh ty rushing sound, and was quicn at his post. In the form that presented itself, Ins scattered senses could recoguize nothing but a Flying Codfish. Without due respect to the Bridge Official, as soon as he could clear his throat of the dust “consarn the whole bilin of ’em enny how.” says he—‘‘is the bridge safe —no toll when one’s in a hurry—where’s Old Abe? I want to get into his buzzunt.” Next came a flying string of Ouions. lltllue, says he—where's that Beecher Stowe woman—she sent me here—l want to git behind her—l guess they wouldn’t shute wim miu here, would they? “Dunder and Blixum,’’was next heard—how furder is it to Sharmany—l wants to git there before quick. Mixed up with this was— “Oh murthcr—the divvle and the fiery Sarpents of Texas are bightin my heels—Magher, you tliafe ofa runegade—or old Abe—give me a sliillala.” Next, the soiled remains ofa Pet Lamb, bleating furiously —“where's Seward—where's Greeley-—where’s Bennett—where's the Five Points—where’s Black wells Island. Oh ! for niy old lodgins there—l wout settle in Virginia if this is the way they- treat their friends. But now tli crowd became so dense that nothing further could be understood. The bridge-keeper retired under the abutment of the bridge to prevent being trampled to death by the overwhelming mass of news-cat riers—and the finale was—it was proclaimed ou the banks of Goose Creek. Mr. Abe was at a Lager Beer saloon waiting for the news. It was broke to him—lie raised his hand aud his toot, and exclaimed, “By ” stopped— passed his hand across his brow to collect his scat tered senses—looked vacantly about him—then pro ceeded, * say boys—Nat., George, Irwin and Daniel —I say, boys—bow many rails did you say that you split to-day ?” Mrs. Abe awoke suddenly, and with true mother ly tenderness, exclaimed, “In my dream I heard a bleating—how's the Pet Lambs: any of them hurt?” Who “bagged Jeff Davis and Gen. Beauregard,” is a secret that they have kept as profoundly to themselves as the people of North Carolina have their great State secret, of “ Who struck Billy Patterson ?” A “Grand Army,” over which so much parade was made, has neter been successful from the days of Xerxes dom*. to Gen. Scott. INSUBORDINATION IN THE NEW HAMPSHIRE LEGISLATURE. An act has been passed by the Legislature of that State entitled, “an Act to aid in defence of the Country,”—(appropriating means to carry on the present war.) Xinktt six of the members have had the courage to make their protest against it, and have it entered on the journals. It would appear, by so strong a demonstration as this, that the war is not a popular measure with a large number of the citizens of that State, aud there can be no doubt but the “opposition,” is the in creasing party. What would be done with these “ninety-six,” if they were within the rea;h of the political Inquisition of New York, and some oth er States. They would soon be “warned to leave.” There is something yet sound among the granite bills of that good old State. We give the following extracts from the Pro test: “ Because we cannot regard the action of this House in the rejection of the amendments pro posed to the bill, as other than the assurance that the present war may be waged by unlawful means, for conquest, subjugation, national consolidation and tbe extinguishment ol State sovereignties, and we are unalterably opposed to the attainment, by any means, of such objects. “Disavowing all considerations and motives of a partisan character, we enter our protest against this bill because ol its loose, irresponsible, extrav agant provisions, and also because we desire to put upou the record our earnest will to protect the State against the exercise of a degree of executive power such as the Constitution never contemplated, and the people never before dreamed of. When such an extraordinary appropriation was submitted to cur sanction, we had a right to know, and the people had a right to know, distinctly and specifi cally, where their money was to go, for what pur pose if had been vnd was to be applied, and by what suitable checks its disbursement had beeu, and was to be guarded. We cannot consent to give to the idle catch phrases of the day the weight due aloue to reason and argument. The political party to which we belong has fortunately uo occasion lor new aud extraordinary demonstra lions of devotion to the flag of our country. — They have never heaped malediction upon it, or upon the Constitution. They have not only loved and honored it, but they have upheld aud defend ed it at home and abroad, on sea and land, at all times and all places. They have striven to main tain the Government as it descended to them, and in the rpifit which animated their father *—not a “consolidated” Government such as is now occas ionally foreshadowed, but a Government composed ot independent, sovereign Stales, united for the purposes expressed, and clothed with the powers, delegated by the States aud the people, and with uo other. This Union, which has been our pride and delight, had its birth in the adoption of tbe Constitution. Upon that instrument, as its firm foundation, warmed and strengthened by glorious memories of the dangers, trials and privations of a seveuty years’ conflict lor independence, hedged all round by the forces of mutual affection and interest, it stood for the first fifty years, in calm dignity, assuring fraternal regard among all its members, safety for the rights of every citizen ol every latitude throughout the broad eztent of our land, an amount of individual and social Ireedom aud prosperity hitherto unkoown, security at home and respect throughout the world. It was only when the provisions of the Constitution itself re lating to domestic servitude, came to be de nounced and repudiated, that all these great inte rests and precious blessings were seriously imper illed. “ We are ready to make any appropriation rea sonable in itself, and properly guarded, which looks practically to restore respect for constitu tional rights, and consequently to restore fraterni ty, unitv°, peace and prosperity. * * * * We have demanded a specification of the ob jects for which this unparrlleled call upon the in dustry and income of our constituents is predict ed. We have asked whether this war conteni plates reunion, and if so, in what manner arms rre to achieve that object. W e have asked wheth er it means the desolation of Southern homes, the overthrow of Southern institutions, and the de -jtruction of our own race there. We have de manded more perfect security for the economical, faithful, legitimate application of this vast amouut of money, and the result is that we have only the privilege which we are thankful is yet reserved tc is, of spreading upon the Journals of tbe Ilouat ibis our respectful, earnest, solemn Protest.” Georgia Regulars. — Ihe First Regiment of Georgia Regulars, a splendid body of trained sol diers, eleven hundred strong, under Col. Williams, arrived in Richmond yesterday evening, \ ia Peter - burg Railroad, accompanied by a splendid band, and proceeded to their camp at the Reservoir.— This regiment is armed to the teeth, and ready so action. They belong to the Division which is to be commanded by General Robert Toombs, lau Secretary Os State. — Richmond Ditpatck 24 th. GEN GARNETT A correspoddenf. of the Cincinnati Commercial thus notices the retreat and death of this accom plished General: Gen. Garnett was the last to cross the ford, which he did on loot, and stood by the river shore waving his handkerchief, and calling them to come hack and dispute the passage of the ford. Major Gordon, ot the U. S. army, at this moment appeared on the opposite side, which the rebels had just It ft, aud seviug them huddled in the toad called to the advance of Dumont’s command, which was rushing along like a whirlwind, to come on. Gen. Garnett directed the attention of his panic stricken rear to the Major, and a volley of bullets fell thick as hail around him, many lodging in the sycamore stump on which he was standing. The Major at the same time saw Garnett, and pointing him out to a squad of Captain Ferry’s company Sergeant Burlingame drew a deliberate sight on the General and fired. He was seen to throw up his bands and fall back ou the sand. At the same instant almost the only man who had the pluck to stand by the General (a Georgian, be it said to the shame of the chivalry of Virginia) fell dead by his side. Dumont’s regiment had come up in much less time than it has taken tq record this event, and poured a raking fire into the enemy, who made a stand of some ten minutes, during which the tire was sharp on both sides, and then they j ran, crow ding upon each other in the wildest con- ! fusion. Dumont’s regiment crossed the ford, and j chased two miles up the St. George road, where they gave out from absolute exhaustion, and biv- I ouacked for the night. Major Gordon had crossed the ford in the mean time, and came up to Gen. Garnett, who was in the last agony of death. He discovered his rank by the star on his shoulder-strap, closed his eyes, and seizing a linen handkerchief from an Indiana boy, tied up his jaws and composed his limbs. TOUCHING INCIDENT. The Savannah Republican of the 23d, relates the following occurrence: A doating father, as he rode in from the country yesterday, was met by a messenger who reported to him the sad news of the death ol a favorite son. “ llow and where did he die ?” was the impulsive interrogatory. “ Under Beauregard, at Manassas, fighting against odds of two to one,” was the re ply. “And how went the day?” was immediately ejaculated. “ The enemy was routed and put to flight,” was the response. “Thank God !” said the father—“Then 1 tun satisfied—l give up my boy.” This touching incident we commend to every heart that has been bereaved in this terrible but righteous w ar. Let them take the example of this patriotic father to heart. They love their sons and brothers no more than he—and while human ity must feel, the promptness of natural affection must be obeyed, let them banish all excess of grief in the cheering reflection that their beloved ones have nobly perished in defence of their country, of truth, of justice, and of right. They are pre cious offerings and Heaven will poor out the in ce: se of its blessings upon the altar whereupon they are laid. A Nohle Speech. —Mr. Breckinridge made a bold and eloquent speech on Tuesday in the Sen ate, in opposition to the whitewashing of Lincoln’s unconstitutional acts. The correspondent of the World has the candor to do justice to Mr. Breck inridge as follows: “Senator Breckinridge’s speech in the Senate was a bold, vigorous and determined effort, both in substance and manner. The audience, which gathered to hear him, was a very large re-assem bling of those of other days. As an oratorical effort the speech was unsurpassed, aud was iu striking contrast with some that it followed.” No one, we believe, expects or intends to answer it, simply because it cannot be done. All that the Abolition Republicans are capable of doing just now is to cry “traitor,” “hemp,” &c., against all who oppose tiieir unconstitutional usurpations. Captire of Runaway Negroes.— The Coast Guard in the vicinity of St. Marks, under command of Capt. 11. T. Blocker, captured on Friday morn ing last, says the Tallahassee Xews, between the hours of six aud seven o’clock, three runawav ne groes, two belonging to Dr. Mettauer, of New Port, and one to Mr. J. W. Adams. The negroes when captured were some eight or ten miles from shore, off the entrance of Dickerson’s Bay, making for the blockading steamer, Mohawk. Capt. B. re turned to this city ou Saturday, having in charge the negro belonging to Mr. Adams. The other two were delivered in Wakulla to Dr. Mettauer. Would it not be well to keep a sharp lookout upon the Georgia seaboard ? liutv flic IlcHKiuiiH IV-1i bi ltire {* Fi&Eit. The Herald says: Our advance thus far finds no enemy. The opinion is beginning to prevail, that the rebels are preparing to fall back on Richmond, and the talk now is, that the great fight is not to be made before Washington ; that they give Washington up, generous rebds! that they will make their grand stand at Richmond, and if they cannot stand there, they will fall back on Norfolk, and execute a dying effort. If this is their programme, they can rest assured that, before it is carried out, all the public proper ty stolen from the Government in and about Chatleston, will be re taken ; and ns the Govern ment has no particular use for Charleston, and as it has always been a sore on the continent, the city will hi cleaned out, and the harbor made use less. Pensacola will be in possession of the Gov ernment soon, if it is not already. PKOCLAMATI ON. It) JUSEPIi L. BUOAVY, Governor of Georgia. A 1,1, the arms which were in the Augusta Arsenal, at the date of the Ordinance for its transfer to the Gov ernment ot the Confederate States, having been turned over to the Becre’ary of War, and ordered by him out of the State, to arm troops mostly from other States upon the borders of the Cunied-racy, and all the arms taken from said Arsenal by me prior to said transfer, having been placed in the hands of troops from this State, now in ser vice; aud over seventeen thousand troops, including three new regiments now undtr orders—for whom full supplies are now being actively prepared—having oeen full, armed, accourted and equipiaal by the State, including full supplies of teuts, knapsacks, haversacks, blankets, eartrige boxes, cap pouches, esutp kettles, canteens, Ac., at a cost of nearly s3oO,<HtO, in equipments and accoutrements, over and above the cost of guns, and the expense of feeding and rendez vousing twenty regiinenyr; and probably over live thousand indepeueent or Conft derate troops having gone from Geor gia to the field, some of whom have taken with them the States’ arms ot which 1 have no account, it becomes my duty to announce to the people of this State, that so soon as the new regiments, above mentioned, and two or three other regiments, for which it is hoped a sufficient quantity of scattered arms may be gathered up and put in order, are supplied, the public anus at my disposal will have been entirely exhaused. In view of these considerations, and of the fact that our liver, our property and our all, are at stake in the great conllict In which w e are engaged, I appeal to the citizens of this State, to loan to the Mate, and through her to the Confederacy, the use ot their private aims. From the lest data at my command, I conclude that there arc, at least, 40,htk good country rifles, and 25,000 good double barreled shot guns in the bands of our people. I hope, in a short time, to be able to announce that ample preparation has reen made to alter the country rifle into a good military weapon, by changing the bore to a uniform size and preparing the gun to carry the Minnie ball, thereby giving it long range as the llarjier’s Ferry rifle. I, therefore, appeal to the people of each county In this State, having one Representative in the Legislature, to form one Volunteer company, of eighty rank and file, and to each having two Representatives to form two companies, and to arm said companies with country tifles of good sub stance and heavy barrel, and to notify me in each case, as soon as the guns are collected, that I may have them re paired at the expense of the State, for the use of the com pany from the county where the guns are collected. This would give the S'ate an additional armed force of over thirteen thousand troops. Judging from the prompt and noble response of the people of this State to every call which has been made upon them for aid to our cause, I cannot doubt that each and every county will promptly respond to this appeal, and that many counties will do much more than I have asked. At the end of the struggle the guns will be returned to their owners or a reasonable price will be paid for those which are lost. I trust that the Justices of the Inf- rior Court, and other active citizens of each county, will call public meetings and discuss this question. Many thousands of men, more than the State can arm, are tendering her their services, and their lives If need he. How cany will now volunteer to loan the Slate the u -e of their guns 7 Constantly returning thanks to our Heavenly Father for the splendid victories with which He has crowned our arms a'd humbly and fervently invoking a coutinuance of His favor, our watchword should be, death or Victory over the invaders. _ Given tinder my hand and the seal of the Executive De partment, this 26th day of Juiy. eighteen hundred and sixty-one.
