J ite “New York Daily News’’ lias the following sensible article, and for publishing such, we ‘uppo.ie, tLat paper, ana a few oth ers, are proaciibeil by Orund Juries, and put doun lHub power, or something bearing a semblance t* legal authority : War is not merely a pecuniary calamity, lhat it makes the rich poor and the poor poorer—that it takes aiul starves a whole people, is sometimes an endurable fact, it’ not au actual blessing. In war, men perish in crowds. 1 hat whole cities are made des olate, and “countless millions mourn,’’ are not the strongest proofs of the evils of war. W orse than this is the moral taint, which follows in the train of events, such as affect the American people now. Men are educated the history among whose scenes they live. Nations grow wicked as well as weak—de graded in spirit and purpose, as well as in purse and power, by the.carnage of war.— iamiliarliy with the bosoiu of cannon aud the deadly glitter of steel makes devil* of nu n. It demoralizes the habits, the bruins, the pursuits of a nation. It annihilates the gaud, tbe beuutil'ul, and the true in the hu man heart. It quenches all manly thought all moral vipor, and pure aspiration, It de strov’B all godlike purpose, emotion, and en deavor. It robs human life of its sanctity. It teaches robbery and murder and all vio lence and crime by example. It exalts brutal passion ; it honors brutal action ; it smothers every Christian emotion ; it annihi lates every act ami work of charity. The strength ot human blood clogs and clouds the nation s heart and brain ; the very air grows poisonous and effete with the odor of war; the very children inhale the contagion of sin. 1 he people ot the United States are mak ing history in volumes daily. We live an age in a day. M e are making a moral as well as a political condition und destiny.— Our revolution may not stop with broken lines ol p tlit eal boundaries, or with changed laws and Con.-titution. When France, in an hour, sank from despotism to anarchy under llobespicrre, more than the mere pil iars of the Government were torn down.— \\ lien Jumes of England arose a King and aiept. an exile, lie lelc. more than a political revolution behind. History too often forgets to record the moral fruit of great events. — Asa people wc now forget that the fate of something more than Government is involv ed in the struggle upon which the Gov ernment has entered. We count the cost in dollars and in lives, and overlook the moral deteiioration of the nation, which is the certain offspring of the work in which we have engaged, and a calami tyuiore dire than all others, present or to come. V* e have put away the I>ible for the musket, ami substituted tbe army hymn for the psalm. The school boy leaves his slate to parade in flaming cap and with mimic gun. The book lies idle on tbe shelf. Har per. and I’utnam, and Appleton sell less, be cause the dealer in gilded buttons and mili tary gray sells more. The pulpit drops the Christian plea for peace, and cries for blood. Inventions fail. Ceres languishes, and Mars grows fat. Newspapers teem with accounts of Held and camp—with details of Battles and and tales of sudden death. Reason shrinks away from its throne, while hate and passion rule. The bookmaker starves —the gun smith is*a god. Students walk the streets ignored—the soldier who knows best how to kill his brother is greeted with applause.— Art has no friends, save the art of war. The graves of murdered men are strewn with flowers—the great iu moral worth and deeds die unmourned. Demagogues throng the halls of Congress—our statesmen are dead. The press which pleads for peace is mobbed —the murderer of a thousand kindred in a day is crowned. Will not all this leave a moral impress behind ? Are taxes and blood the only calamities of war? Do men and children live atnid scenes like these still un contuininatcd and pure ? Cumulation emerge from scenes like these as morrally great as before ? 1 .ct us deduce fair conclusions from known premises. War propounds these serious questions, in spite of apologies which circumstances may make for its exis tence, and even when it is regarded as against a foreign foe, and thus, possibly, as a strug gle for Rational honor. Official New* from Aimiacliicoln. We are indebted to Adgt. Gen. D. P. Hol land for the following official information from Apalachicola ; “The schooner New Plan w r as seized at tbe Fast Pass, about 27 miles from Apalachi cola, on the Night, of the 20th ult. by the boats of the blockading fleet, and the ship Finland taken possession of. News reaching Apalachicola, Capt. Atkins ordered an ex pedition of one hundred and ton men from the Apalachicola Guards, Perry Artillery and Beauregard Rifles, on the steamer Yovtuj and privateer F. S. Bartow, to proceed to recapture the ship. The enemy, perceiving Capt. Atkins’ force, set lire to the ship, took to their boats and made great speed to get under the guns of the two bloc kading steam ers lying a short distance beyond the Pass, Capt. A. chasing their boats until the two steamers, which were coining in under steam and sail, made it necessary, on account of their great superiority of force, for him to withdraw, which he did, and returned to Apalachicola.” The following is the official dispatch, from Captain Atkins, of what transpired after the expedition left: Apalachicola, Aug. 28, 1865. Col. D. I*. Holland, AJ>/,t and Inxp. Getdl: Bjr : A messenger has just arrived, say ing that the enemy sent two boats, as soon as we left this morning, and has burnt out Yent’s and other houses below Cat Point.— All the families are at Cat Point, and the Young is just starting to bring them over to town. J. D. ATKINS. Cajit. commanding. Sentinel 3t 1 !//.] We learn that the report about burning of houses below Cat Point is contradicted. The Case of Mrs. Greenhow. —So thorough is the work of Government in deal ing with rebel agents here, that the very daughters of Mrs Greenhow are ignorant of the disposition made of her. She is probab ly enjoying Col. Martin Burke’s hospitality at. Fort Lafayette. The day before her de parture she threw a letter out of the window to a gentleman friend, who carefully per used and pocketed it. The sentry, not un observant, touched the man on his shoulder and put him under arrest. The letter con tained treasonable matter. A prison is fittiug up here for the reception of female traitors. Last Hoars of lieu. Lyon—llls Pre sentiments. Ihe New \ ork Herald of the ISth, gives the following item of intelligence from the battle field ot Missouri: Fur two or three days before the battle Gen. Lyon changed much in appearance.— Since Jt became apparent to him that he must abandon iho Southwest or have his army cut tu pieces, he had lost much of his termer energy aud decision. To one ot his staff he remarked, the evening la-fore tin 1 battle, “I am a man believin'? in presenti ments, and ever since this night surprise was planned, r have had a feeling I cannot get rid of that it would result disastrously.- Through the refusal of the government, pro perly to reinforce me, I am obliged to aban don the country. If I leave it “without en gaging the enemy the public will call me a coward. If l engage him ] may be defeated and my command cut tu pieces, iam too weak to hold Springfield, and yet the people will demand that I brifig about a battle with the very enemy 1 cannot keep a town against. How can (Lis result otherwise than aeuiust us?” H On the w:i3* to tlie li.-ld I frequently rotle near him. ilc seemed like one bewildered, :lliJ offon, ulieii iuldrosseJ, lulled to give any recognition, and seemed totally unaware that he was spoken to. On the battlefield he gave his orders promptly, aud seemed solicitous for the welfare of his men, and utterly regardless of' his own safety. While he was standing where bullets,flew thickest, just alter his favorite horn* was shot, from under him, some of his officers interposed and begged that he would retire from the spot and seek one less exposed. Scarcely raising his eyes from the enemy, he said : “It is well enough that I stand here. I am satisfied.’’ \\ bile the fine was forming fur the charge against the rebels, iu which he lost Ids life, Gen. Lyon turned to Major Sturgis, who stood near him, aud remarked : L fear the day is lost. If Col. Seigel had been successful, he would have joined us be fore this. 1 think I will lead this charge.” Lie had been wounded in the leg in an early part of the engagement—a flesh wound merely—from which the blood flowed pro fusely. Maj. Sturgis during the conversa tion noticed blood on General Lyon’s hat, and at first supposed lie had been touching it with his hand, which was wet with blood from his leg. A moment after, perceiving that it was fresh, he removed the General’s nut and asked the cause of its appearance. “It is nothing Major, nothing but a wound iu the head,” said Gen. Lyon, turning away and mounting his horse. “ Without taking the hat held out to him by Major Sturgis, lie addressed the lowans he was to command with, “Forward men ! J will lead you !” Two minutes afterwards he lay dead on the field, killed by a rifle ball through the breast, just above the heart. In death his features wore the same troubled and puzzled expression that had been fixed upon them for the past week llis body was brought to town in the afternoon, and will be forward ed to his fii-nds itr Connecticut for inter ment.” KevnUioii ot Pooling in PeinyU vunin. A corresprndent of the Baltimore Ex change writes from Norristown, Pennsylva nia, August 2<‘>, as follows : A great excitement exists in different parts of Pennsylvania just now, you need not be supprised to hear of stirring scenes before many days. What would you think if the State should pattern after Missouri ? And yet I have heard Republicans and Dem ocrats freely suggest the idea. Hitherto democrats have furnished the majority if not two-thirds of the volunteers. They now re fuse, and the consequence is that soldiers are hard to get. Officers are plenty, but men are scarce. The reason is that the republi can journals have taken high ground in de nouncing Democrats and uisunionists, until many good Union men have almost been driven into the Secession idea. But tlie great operating cause now is the action of the authorities at Washington in attempting to drive Democrats into the Re publican ranks, under theory of “ no party.” This will not be submitted to and in every county where the Democrats strike for the old Democratic doctrine, the edict has gone forth from Washington that Democratic or gans must be “confiscated.” Several pa pers, 1 understand, have already been seized by the Marshal. The Hasten Sentinel was mobbed and destroyed on Monday last, and the result ill old Northampton is a terrible state of bad feeling. The Jeffersonian, West Chester, was also destroyed by a secretly organized mob at midnight on the same da}-. On the next day I passed through, or rather into the vil lage, and the excitement ran very high.— This is a State camping-ground, and parts of two companies organizing to make up a reg iment were almost broken up by the attack on the Jeffersonian office. Out of about 150 to 170, one Lieutenant and 50 men withdrew their names, declaring that if such was to be the order, the Republicans might tight their own battles. The feeling ran so high that an immense patrol, armed with rities and muskets, has been kept up to prevent an at tack upon the borough, while depositors have withdrawn their names from the bank. Since, I understand, the Marshal has closed the office of the Jeffersonian, through the country to a high fever. If this goes on, you may take it for granted that Uncle Sam can get no more Democratic soldiers, or in fact any kind, for they willbe needed at home. This is blind policy. The Administration bad better not rain mischief iu Pennsylvania. The Democrats there are Union men to a man ; but many—very many—are anxious for a restoration of peace on any terms that will secure Union and honor to the nation. Hello!

The Herald says the Federal Government has a way of punishing treason which is truly refreshing to the victims. —- “We should think so,” or any oiler man. Tall Blowing- —The New York Herald of the 10th inst., thus answers the question, “What will become of the next cotiou cron ?” The rebel government are trying to con trol it, for it is their last hope—the single plank to which they cling amid the waves. But we have the men, the money, and the means to wrest it out of their hands. We will send hostile columns to the cotton re gions, when the crop is ready, to takt it to the Nojth, and we will bring Manchester here to manufacture it, aud cut off England not only from all trade with this country, but from the markets of the world.

Secession would ruin us, but take the vote to-day, and Missouri would go out by a large majority. Had our Governor—Provisional Govern or Gamble—done right, we would have had peace. Roth he and the Government have lost that Springfield battle. Union men are very scarce here. The action of the Convention will never be sus tained. It has drawn all the sympathy to Jackson’s side. Ills bitter enemies that were are now his fast friends. The States forces under McCulloch and Price will be very large in a few days. We are all ruined. Truly, your friend, * “The Men Whobrolc.bt tiie Trouble upon us.” —The following item is from the Boston Tra veller. The people of the North, it seems, are beginning to enquire, who brought the present trouble upon them, and it will not take them long to make up their minds on the subject. The “drunken man of Dover is but the representative of millions of sober starving freeman who will j yet rise iu their might and avenge their wrongs: On Saturday afternoon, upon the arrival of Hon. John P. Hale at the depot in Dover, N. 11., (the place of his residence, ) a man, apparently intoxicated, to whom an aerplain-! tance bail pointed out Mr. Hale as an “Abo litionist,” stepped up to Mr. Hale, and with the remark, “Y ou are one of the men who have brought all this trouble upon us,” struck him in the face, knocking ofl his hat. Mr. Hale, seeing the condition of the man, replied, “(Jet out of my way,” when the drunken fellow struck him again. Mr.! Hale did not return the blow, but walked quietly away. The depot master and others interfered to prevent any farther assault.— The attack did not appear to be premedita ted and the affair was over in a few min utes.

Embracing the Widows.—At a recent i meeting of a parish, a solemn, straight-bod j ied, and most exemplary deacon, submitted j a report in writing, of the destitute widows j and others standing in need of assistance, in ! the parish. “Are you sure, deacon,” asked j a, iotlier solemn brother, “that you have em i braced nil the widows?” He said he believed he had done so ; but if aDy had been omit ted, the omniission could be easily corrected. Abraham Lincoln has appointed the last Thursday in September a s’a day of fasting, humiliation and prayer, to be observed by the people of the United States.

Knowing that Good Bacon is indispensa ble to good living, and being of those who have but little to buy with, we cannot help but feel personally interested, in our farmers converting their Pigs into 200 and 300 pound hogs in double quick time. We know j they can do this if they will but try. They are making good crops, aud should feed well and commence note. \\e know of some who are said to be good farmers, who never pre tend to raise their meat, but depend entirely upon buying. This is not right, for every farmer should at least raise his owu Bacou, and they must do so if they ever expect to live independent of the North. We hold to the doctrine that it is the im perative duty of every man and woman in the Southern Confederacy, to do all that is in their power, which will have a tendency to bring about this desirable result.
