I. . j REPUBLICAN ji uu>U for rCexvspapers. What is it that t'..c ; -lblic have against the newspaper Press, that it evinces at times so mnch repugnance to its prosperity, and some times even to its existence? We can compre hend why bad men should like to cripple and blot out these vigilant monitors over their con duct, but we are utterly at a loss to understand why, by some common accord, the public at large, with some considerate exceptions, desire to impose greater burthens and responsibility upon publishers of newspapers than upon any body else, and to restrict their privileges far short of those extended to other business men in the community. It cannot be a jealousy of their gains, for though the hardest workers of the entire industrial class, how many can we point to who. have grown rich ? How many bav£ even succeeded in making themselves and iMuilies comfortable in the world, much less inlying up a surplus of earnings for a “ rainy dasU J Very, very few. And yet most people are eer looking out to be cheated by the prin ter and he never yet asked an increase of his ifjorue that everybody did not consider the 'claim a most unreasonable one. Let us illustrate these positions by showing the present condition of the newspaper Press of the Confederate States. Hundreds of them have had to go by the board and close up their doors lor want of the means to pay the actnal expenses of publication ; whilst those that re main on the arena to battle with the storm have the slightest possible public sympathy for their toils, anxieties and troubles. They are denied the privileges allowed to other classes of bnsi nes* men in order to keep their heads above the. water, and they have had to struggle on, unaided and alone, as best they conld. The merchant can charge a dollar per yard for his calico; the grocer thirty dollars for his flour, sixty cents for his sugar, and two dollars for his coffee ; the planter forty cents for his bacon, two dollars for his corn, and twenty cents for his cotton ; the cobbler twelve dollars for* his shoes and twenty-five dollars for his boots, and soon ad infinitum; bat the newspaper mart, who is a victim to all these high prices, and has beside? to pay from one hundred to a thousand per centum advance on all the materials of his vocation, must be held down to old prices for the product of his labor, and this, too, when the great resource of his living is cut off and the public is expecting more from him than it ever did before. If he talks about increasing the price of subscription or adding a few cents per square to his bill3 for advertising, one would think, frem the howl that is raised by some of his customers, that the constitution was about to be overthrown, or that the Editor himself was about to go over to the Yankees. Now, is this fair play? We propound the question to reasonable and honest men every where. Can any one tell us a good reason fer this seemingly unjust discrimination against the Press ? If he can, we would bo glad to know it. If he cannot, will not the public review their opinions on this subject and prepare their minds for doing justice to a deserving and long suffer ing elas3 of their fellow-citizens. One word in conclusion in special reference to this journal. Knowing the interest felt in the war and all the public events of this important period of our existence, with a bold heart, but not without fear3 for the result, wo entered in to extensive and costly arrangements for pre - curing the most reliable news from the army in all quarters, and at the earliest day possible, through the combined ageycy erf the mail and telegraph. These contracts involved a large extraordinary expenditure, and a material in crease of our business was necessary to tmable us to continue the experiment. II w far we have discharged our duty in this undertaking, we leave for others to judge ; we are gratified to know that in our efforts to give them a live •pajKv, the public has been satisfied. Their duty, however, had not been fully per formed. Heavy accessions were made to our list ot subscribers, but tbc low price at which the paper was sent —the same as formerly and in prosperous times —did not compensate us for the additional labor and expense. In this event, leaving our annual subscriptions as they were, we made a small advance on subscriptions for a less period than a year, for the purpose of making up the deficiency. This look- and to us rea sonable and fair; yet, strange to say, we have been mortified by complaints from rotne ol whom we expected better things. We have only fo ray that we cannot recede from these prices and meet our heavy liabilities. We could publish a cheap paper il (he public prefer it, but with neither justice to our readers nor satisfaction to ourselves. At all events, we shall persevere in our present course, relying upon the intelligent and tried friends of the Republican to save ua from harm, until if shall become tv,dent that our confidence is mis placed aud in vain. To Fci-kobn VittlUng lire City. We publish the following notice for the in formation of persons who may have occasion to visit our city. The rule has been deemed necessary in order to provide against deset tions from the army, and though it may occasion some Inconvenience, a proper regard for the public welfare should induce all to give a cheer tul compliance : NOTICE. Any party desiring passports from this office, must bring the Seal ot the County attached to the Cerietlcato. otherwise thty will ho compell ed to tile an affidavit before a Magistrate as to their being citizens not, so mocks, or the mer chant or other persons vouching lor sjacti par ties will lay themscH'' a liable to a general C nrt Martial if iiiu citizen vouched lor should prove ; to he a soldier.

Mr. Rodgers, hr. and were engaged for several hours in shelling tho neighboring woods. They subse quently landed a considerable party, for what purpose is unknown, though we presume it is only a foraging expedition, who have set out to plunder the neighborhood. Kilkenny is in Bryan county, some ten miles below Genesis Point. A competent loree has been sent to Icok after the tldevos and capture them if pos sible. "P. W. A.”—Our readers will rjoice to see that our able and indefatigable army corres pondent is again iu the field, and an eye-witness of the glorious deeds of our brave army on the Potomac. The letter which we publish this morning will be read with Intense interest, be ing the only iutellig'ble account of the recent battles that has been given to the public. We received by the same mall another letter o( a later date, but we are compelled, from lack of force, to postpone It until tu-atotrow. We are very sure It will not spoil from keeping.

Patton was placed in charge of two companies, E and F, and ordered up the mountain as skir mishers. He soon engaged the Eleventh Penn sylvania Volunteers, posted in a strong position on the crest of the mountain, and with his two small companies held in check the entire regi ment, supported by the Eleventh Massachusetts Volunteers, and finally drove them in confusion from the field. Capt. Patton, with his revolver, killed Capt. Shanks and a private of the Elev enth Pennsylvania Volunteers, and mortally wounded another. The commanding officer of the Third Brigade awarded great praise to the First Georgia Regulars, and to them belongs the honor of killing twenty-two of the enemy, wounding many more, and finally clearing the way- for Longstreet’s command to advance.. Had an official report been made out, Captain Patton would have been highly complimented for gallantry and for the skill and coolness dis played in maneuvering the left wing of the regi ment.

Washington, Sept. 2—The city to-night, is in a great state of excitement, and not withjUt cause. Last night there was a series of skirmishes along the whole front, during which wa lost two of our best Gen erals, Kearney and Steven?, and o her valuable offi cers. It is stated that Hooker’s brigade drove the Ethels back,but the mile of skirmishing was attended wi h great loss of life. At foar o’clock this morning z train of one hundred wag ns, with commissary stores,, was Intercepted by the enemy between Fairfax and Cestreville and driven off towards Mmassas before it could be overtaken. When thi3 raid on our rear at Centreville was known, the necessity of guarding that direitian caused our whole army to abandon Ccntreville, and it was march ed this side of Fairfax Court Houso. Tail morning it again marched, and by evening the advance was in sight of Munson’s Hili. The Rebel cavalry followed at a distance, bat made no attack. To-day the g .vernmeat is using ever? energy for the city’s delense. The New YorkTiib n.i'3 Washington co respondent says the latent trustworthy news from the front was brought by a Surgson who left Fai fax C. H. at nine o’clock Monday night. Alter midnight the enemy was sti’l pursuing, or threatening to pat sue Gen.

BALTIMORE IN A STATE OF INSURRECTION, There seems no longer to be doubted that our army, or a large portion of it, have crossed the Potomac and are now marching on Baltimore if not on Pennsylvania : The Richmond Enquirer of Tuesday says: The general advance of the army, selected from our combined forces, took place on Fri day, and the “crossing of the Rubicon” was ac complished in excellent order. On the Thursday evening preceding, Gen. Stuart advanced with his command within eight miles of Alexandria, aud made a feint upon the enemy’s lines. Pope fancying that a general attack was meditated, placed his army in preparation, and held them in line of battle during the Bight, sleeping on their arms. When morning came, Gen. Stuart Had disappeared. The intervening time had been occupied by our troops in pushing on to Edwards’ Ferry, where they crossed with little difficulty, the Po tomac being very low, and no enemy appearing to oppose their progress. The men were exul tant as they dashed into the stream, and became inspired with the most sanguine expectations of the speedy disenthralment of Maryland and the downfall ol the Federal Capital. 01 their dficra tious after crossing we can, of course, as yet give no account. We might present presump tions, but these the reader can invent for him self, if he is at all familiar with the lines ol com munication running out of Washington to the North and West. The Dispatch of Wednesday says: It was stated yesterday afternoon, but how correctly we leave the reader to judge, that our army reached Frederick City, Md , on Saturday. Crossing as they did on Friday, there was noth ing in the distance from tho river to that point to prevent their reaching there at the time stated. The distance from Frederick to the Relay, by the old National road, is about forty miles, and by the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad about fifty miles. From Frederick to Wash ington City, through Rockville, in Montgomery county, the distance is about the same, perhaps not so great. From the several points where our armv crossed the Potamne, via Rockville to Washington, the distance is less than thirty miles. From Frederick City to Harrisburg, via Gettysburg and Carlisle, the distance does not exceed seventy miles. So that, if they moved on Frederick, and reached that city as stated, on Saturday, it is highly probable that they are already over the borders of Pennsylvania, and within easy distance of her capital. There was another report, however, that after crossing, our forces moved in the direction of the Relay, on the Baltimore end Ohio Railroad, nine miles we6t of Baltimore. Coming to us as a rumor we give it for what it is worth, without pretending to decide upon its probability.— Connected with this rumor was one to the effect that there have been an uprising of the people ot Baltimore in resistance to the Federal au thority, and that the Yankee Provost Marshal of the city had been killed. We have all along believed that the people ol Baltimore would not quietly submit to Lincolnism one day alter the passing of the Potomac by our troops, and a confirmation of this rumor of an uprising would cause us no surprise. The difficulty is said to have originated in an attempt of the Federal officials to remove the Government stores from that city to the North, to which the people cn masse objected, and pitched in alter the style ot the l'J.h of April, 1801, with brickbats and other accessible weapons. There was also % statement to the effect that an en tire regiment of Maryland troops had joined our standard, renouncing their allegiance to the abolition government. The Enquirer of Wednesday says : From Maryland.— The news from our ad vancing army in North-east on yesterday was, necessarily, very limited, no other established fact being ascertained than that Gen. Jackson bad passed through Frederick City, Maryland. Reports were plentiful, as usual. It was stated emphatically by parties coming from Leesburg, that our army had reached the Relay House, nine miles from Baltimore, and that, the news reaching Baltimore, a large number of citizens rose in a mass and pitched into the government troops —who were engaged In removing com missary stores from the city—slaying and bruis ing them miscellaneously with bricks, bullets and “billies.” This is a very good item, if true, and indi cates the spirit with which the citizens of Bal timore will enter into the struggle when their hands are unshackled and their will free. The Confederate army now in Maryland is considered sufficiently strong for any emer gency, while a heavy force guards their rear on the south-side ot the Potomac, and is free to act in any direction in case of necessity. In tbe course of a few week3 our means ol obtaining information will be greatly facilitated by the re-establishment ot the telegraph and the re-opening of mail communication to the commanding points of intelligence within our lines. Purport of Saunders’ Despatches.— Geo. Saunders, having arrived safely in Canada with despatches from our government to European Powers, a Canada paper gives the following account of the contents of the latter: Y/c are authorized to state that Mr. Baunders is the bearer of the draft of a commercial treaty, which the Confederate envoys will propose to ibe chief European powers, irrespective of re cognition or intervention.
