In pressing ttc draft ut this time, the Ad znlnistratioii gives the highest passible evi dence ot stem, inflexible patriotism, for rotting which they con do will be so likely to burr, politically as the prompt end vigor ous CDfi-TC-ament of the draft. It will beused ly the Democracy to prejudice the people against Mr. Llrcoln, and to moke voces for themselves. It will be denounced as a inci sure of unnecessary seventy, and as intended to oppress the poi-r to curry out what will be stigmatized as the utipracticable measures ofibb Acmlnis«ration Hostility to its en forcement wnibe Invoked,and (in some quar ters) riots instigated. The Administration la not eo ignorant of human nature, nor eo illy advised in regard to the unscrupulous character of its political enfxnics, as not to know all this. They doubtless realize it quite as folly as tbe most sagacious politician anywhere; but they dis regard it, una are willing to abide tbs conse quences, because what they purpose to do Is essential to tbc salvation of the country, and that is worth whatever risks of personal apgmrcizemtnt it may involve. While Ijtrtiumc it will, the enforcement ol the draft should not, affect Mr. Lincoln inju riously. If we choose to hazard success la the Hud,' ad to quietly see tbe army reduced below tbe tUrdsid of aggressive deficiency, he could and probably would, put off the draft to beyond tbe election. Bat, tbauk Providence, be it> no such coward; but is de termined to do his duty a- hs understands it, let the c usequsnees to > Imselffce wh*t they may. While a iew may bold back from him because of this, tbe people generally will ap preciate the motive for the enforcement ul the draft, and ap:land tbc patriotism which UuorcE self for the public good. So that, if properly presented, tbe enforcement of this necessary measure may bc.*fe it should be, made to aid ratber than*-I a jura bold and fearless bead of tbe Government, It is undoubtedly true that a grmt dial of suffering will cisur from the enforcement of the ureft Husbands, sons, fathers and brothers, will be compelled to leave those who depend upon them for support Bat ample pecuniary provision will be mode for - thim—in rr any localities, at least, and there should be in all; and they will have tbe proud satisfaction of personally contribu ting to the overthrow of those who are seek ing to overthrow tbe government. That is , something; but ills more, that tbc future happiness of their children, and their child ren’s children deuends upon tbe reconstruc tion of the Union, and tbe perpetuity of tbe only frte government on earth To have such a government destroyed through the want of energy on the part of Its rulers, or patriotism on tbe 7-art of its people, would be to infuse jo; and rejoicing Into the heart ol every despot ou the face of tbe earth. And they who may be drafted should re member that It Is the ordering of Providence 1 as well as of Abraham Lincoln. They are, in the course of natural everts, where, and just at the time they are wanted. They are of the age recognized as suitable for the ser vices they are expected to render. Those in advance of them, in ace would glafty take their places If five or “ten or twenty years of their youth could be given back to* them. Bnt this cannot be, and those who Blind up in the lusty vigor belonging to the period of between twenty and lorry-five should as sume with becoming cheerfulness tbc duties and responsibilities of their times. A high er power then either Presidents or Con gresses orders cur destinies, «ud he is the wisest man and, in this case, tbe best patri ot who “takes joyfully” the burdens os well I as the blessings assigned him. The pur* ose of a draft—or Us legitimate ! purpose—is to procure men, not money. 1 with tbc commutation clause In the law, It ’ was effective in procuring money, bnt not . with a wish loprccuie men. It is now to I be enforced for men and.notforiDoney; j and unless negatived altogether, it will ac com;,) hh its purpose. For every able bodied j man era*'n u man must come- I-scedifli -1 cultics in the way; hut It will* I fully be i Iteve, prove a hundred fold more effective ; than Ue old law. It it does not, the lault 1 will net be in tie law, but in the admlnistra j tlon of it. Itt purpose may be thwarted in localities through the imbecility of those in } trusted v.fth its enforcement, or through i the connivance of unlawful and unpatriotic interference of municipal or State authori ty e. But I believe it will prove JUclt to be tbe rnly efficient law which has yet been put in force to till up our depleted armies. G. D. Monetary.

This corps was withdrawn from the left frost some days ago and has been on the reserve since. They reached the railroad about 7 o’clock, and tbs Ist division being in the advance, had a skirmish with a force of the enemy stationed there to protect the road. They fell back rapidly, however, and the loss on either side was light. After piscina the troops Inline to meet any attack which mgibt be made,the work of teariugnp tbe track was commenced and prosecuted with vigor for several Lours, but about noon they were Interrupted at their labor by tbe appearance of tbe enemy, who were advanc ing along the railroad from Petersburg in line of battle. They proved to be Hill’s corps, which had been‘lying in reserve for the past few days, and advanced at double quick, as soon as they became aware of our intention. Tbe 2d division, Gen. Ayers commanding, held the advance on tbc rail road, tbe 3d and 4th divisions supporting on the right, while the let divhlon was placed to cover the left and prevent any sur prise in that direction. Tbc attack on tbe 2d division was very determined, but our men met it sallaolly, driving the rebels back in handsome style, with heavy loss. After repeated attempts to force our lines, the rebels finally, after two hours’ Laid, fighting, gave up the idea and fell back some distance, keeping up a lire all the afternoon from their Lotteries and skirmishers. The 15th New York Heavy Artillery par ticularly distinguished Itself In this engage ment, Its commander was severely wound ed. The movement was a complete surprise to the enemy, tbe rebel pickets stationed in tbc vicinity being so astonished that they had hardly time to escape. Some few pris oners were taken, several of whom Vers* wounded. ‘ The track is torn up for over a mile. Oar troops still held the position at dark to night, and to-morrow they will completely destroy the tics and rails of the railroad, un less the rebels shall visit the neighborhood In too strong force, Tbe loss on our side was about SOO, among whom was Lieut CoL Pierson, of the 39th Massachusetts.

New Tore, August 20 — The New York Tima 1 Washington dispatch says: The latest advices from our forces operat ing against Mobile, show that Fort Morgan is closely invented, and at lost report an at tack was on the point of being made.

Intel ligence from our blockade proves that Fort Morgan has been In tbe bablt of receiving supplies fer only t fortnight at a time. The fall of this work may therefore ce looked for at an early day, even If no attack should be made, and tbe garrison simply subjected to the starvation process.

A Harper’s Ferry dispatch of tbe 18tb states that when onr cavalry were evacuat ing Winchester on the 17tb, tbo citizens fired on Gen. Wilson and onr troops from their houses. With the exception of the above, the pa pers contain nothing additional to the dis patches of last night. Headquarters army of the Potomac, Saturday, Aug. 20— C a. m.—Yesterday was the quietest day wc have seen In front of Petersburg for a month, scarcely a shot be ing heard the entire day. On the Weldon Road, where Gen. Warren’s corps had taken position, considerable skir mishing, with occasional discharges of artil lery, occurred, but nothing resembling an 'engagement took place. In the afternoon the enemy moved a force from near Petersburg toward enr left, and made an attempt to force onr line near the Jerusalem road, but fiudieg the road was not so easy as they anticipated, they aban doned It. * They took a lew prisoners, how ever, before they fell bock. . The number of casualties in the sth Corps on Thursday was about 450. About midnlghteome batteries in front th of June [started for home. Some sixty miles below ebc stopped to wood, and while tbe bands were chopping, a party of twenty Sioux Indians came up in a 'friendly way, greeting them and at the same tune with tlit-ir usual “How, bow.” When they bad got within twenty steps of*tbe woodenoppere, tbe sav ages drew their guns and fired, wounding cue man In tbe arm. The woodeboppera throwaway their axes and fled to tbo boat, enther loose and she floated oat into the channel. In tho meantime the engineer seized his gun and fired upon tbe advancing redekins, evidently wotmoing one of them, ns be was seen to throw away bis jmn/bo rr and arrows, and bulEilo robes. . The crew, getting their carbines, poured in a volley which scattered tbe foe. The boat then re turned to the landing and was not disturbed thereafter. Below the mouth ot the Yellowstone the Island City was found sunk in two and a half feet of water. Half of her cargo was damaged, bnt the other half would be saved. The boat is supposed to be a total loss. At Fort Gilpin it was learned, that a train of emigrants had been gone several days, and sconts had just come la who reported that the Indians had attacked the tram but w«re repulsed, with & loss to the emigrants of four men and a nnmber of horses. When the Benton arrived at Fort Union, she found in potf, loading Government freignt brought from Fort Sally, the follow ing named boats; U. S, Grant, Atone, Chip pewa Fall and Bell Peoria. After remaining there a few hours, the Benton eime ou down to Fort Rice. At this point couriers bad just arrived from General Solly’s army, who reported him getting along well, and that he was within eiguty miles of about 4,000 Sioux Indians. It seems that Gen. Pope had ordered Sully to take his .command and escort an emigrant train, con sisting of 200 wagons, from Wisconsin to the mouth of the Elk Horn river, In Idaho terri tory, and'that te Is not now in- pursuit of the hostile Indians. Gen. Sully and his com mand, it is reported, arc greatly dissatisfied because they ore not at liberty to clean ont the Indians; but as soon as the emigrants' get to their destination, Gen. Sully intended to give his attention to the redskins. Tbe first evening after leaving Fort Rico the Calypso was met, getting along wel'. The steamers Tempest. Sam. Gaty and Mar, cells were loading at Fort Solly.' At Sioux City tbe Benton caught up with tbe Isabella, and found th» J. H.'Lacey in port. Soon after leaving Sioux City she broke two of her rudders and had to lay by twenty-four hours. Thirty miles below Sioux City the steamer J. C. Irwin was met, bound tor Fort RondulX with Government freight. The Benton brought down 100 boles of buffalo robis, and quite a number of Idaho passengers. Also, the venerable Mr. Daw son, a member of the American Fur Compa ny, who has just retired from the company, and Is now on his way to his boyhood home in Scotland, to spend the rcuulnder ot his davs. We were sorry to notice that he was afflicted with paralysis in his lower limbs, and that he bad been In that condition tor two years. He bos been among the Indians nearly thirty years as a trader, and now re turns with a large fortune. The steamer Isabella, one of the mountain boats in the employ of the Government, ar rived Snndavmornlng from Fort Sully. She was released, owing to her disabled condl tlon, having met withau accident below Fort Solly, by picking up a snag, making a hole iu hcrhnlL See had a large number of Idaho cmlgnuts on board. She reports the steam boaters are greatly dissatisfied with thetr long stay on the Upper Missouri. She re mained at the wharf and left for St. Loui?. ■Nete Sn&mismmts, OKIOSTS AND POTATOES TVARTED ET THI!
