r - - **** «¥ ■ .. * State by their efforts to hitch her to the tail ol a slave oligarchy, the secessionists are again plotting and praying for tie presence .of anotlier retd army, to the end that what little of order and seourityis leftmay be replaced by anarchy and bloodshed. In this case, the people of the North should be unanimous in the determination to drive every disloyal of Missouri, though the task might cost twenty thousand rebel lives—drive them out, and hang them if they return. Missouri wants peace. MONDAY, JULY 21, 1802,. xbk expected PBOCL&SUTION. The proclamation of the Preadent to be issued by virtue of the authority conferred in the confiscation bill, probably, cannot long be deferred. As no confiscation can take place until the expiration of sixty days after the rebels are officially called upon to lay down their aims and return to their dnty as good citizens, the President will not, we presume, defer the performance of the duty with which Congress Has cdbim. ~ * THE CURRENCY* A correspondent of Dixon suggests as a way of bringing specie into circula lion, “ that the merchants of Chicago, or “ some Railroad Company, should com “ mence to take the legal tender notes at “ par value, abd the bank notes no w par at “ a discount, say five or ten cents.” Right here is the difficulty: There can be no such, "unanimity among the merchants and railroads as to secure the working of his plan according to our correspondent’s ideas. If harmony of action could be se cured, we don’t see then where the specie comes in. THE MICHIGAN EIGHTH, The official report of Brigadier General Isaac L Stevens, in relation, to the defeat at James Island, near Charleston, is higaly honorable to the angle "western regiment —the Michigan Bth—which was engaged in that blundering and murderous affair. The general not only speaks in the highest terms of the gallant CoL Fenton, who led the charge, but of the several com panies of his immediate command. The mortality lists show that the praise is due. The Bih lost, out of a total of 534 men who went into the fight, 184 in killed, wounded and missing—a record which few volun teer regiments have ever made. Else where *we print part of a letter from Gen. Stevens to Gen. Hunter, from which the reason of the disaster may be learned. GOV. VAXES. Gov. Tates is a Kentuckian bom, was an ardent Compromiser in the winter of *6O-81, and has always been credited with strong •‘BorderState” sympathies. ‘When such as he demand emancipation, there can. be few left to resist it. ■ The above is the comment of the Albany Statesman on Gov. Yates’ letter to the President, urging a more vigorous policy and the employment of slaves by and in the army. We beg to make a correction. The Governor was not “an ardent* compro miser in the winter of 60-Gl”—not a compro miseron anyofthetennaproposed. He has fur too much sense to suppose that our Government could endure, or that it would deserve to endure, if after every election the defeated party could win, by the threat of, revolution, the victory it lost_at the polls. He went for the inauguration of Abraham Lincoln at all hazards and without any concessions to his would be* assassins. He has never reflect ed the views of the Border State men, either in Ids official action or in Ins polit ical career. Prom the beginning, he has been an ardent war man, and we do not err when we say that no executive of any other State has contributed more than he to bring the war to a successful termina tion. His letter to Mr. Lincoln is only the legitimate outgrowth of the sentiments that he has entertained and of the vigor ous policy to which he has adhered. Would that the Union had more like him! A PARALLEL CASE, Let us suppose a passenger ship at sea overtaken by a storm; that part of ihe crew has fled in the boats; that the vessel has sprung aleak; that the rigging is damaged, the remaining crew too weak forthe emer gency, breakers in the neighborhood, and the danger of shipwreck imminent; that the passengers are called upon for help, and that seme of those in the cabins, sustained by a portion of the officers, should insist on keeping the steerage passengers away from, the pumps, buckets and rigging, and from helping to save the ship, or going into any part reserved to cabin passengers,—sup pose such a state of things possible, would it be tolerated by those anxious to preserve the vessel and its precious living freight Would not the sticklers for caste in such a dreadful emergency be kicked aside, putin irons, or thrown overboard ? Would not the steerage passengers be granted the free dom of the ship, and would not their aid be earnestly solicited? Would not grati tude for the help they renderedinsurethem 1 better treatment during the remainder of Ihc voyage ? Our noble Ship of State is in just such a stonn as we have described. Some of the officers, weak-minded,bewildered with fear, blinded with prejudice, probably disloyal, join with some of the passengers, as mean, and infatuated as themselves, in driving willing hands sway from the pumps, be cause, forsooth, it is an established rule that, steerage passengers shall not be allow ed the freedom of the ship!—rs if the safe ty ot the vessel and all on board are to be sacrificed to a regulation which was never intended to be carried out in time of storm and danger. Have we not had quite enough of this folly ? Is it not high time to kick these fools aside or overboard, and call to our help the willing steerage passengers? FBAtDS IN CONTRACTS. Mr. Waahbume, from the select commit tee of the House, to inquire into contracts of the Government, since the beginning of this war, made a supplemental report a short time ago', a copy of which is before us. The testimony on which it is based covers sixteen hundred printed pages, and in it is disclosed an amount of fraud aud corruption that will be appalling to every patriotic man. We forbear, for the honor of the country, to stir the rotten heap, though we may congratulate all honest men on the view of the field which Mr. "Washbume presents. He says: Through the disclosures made by the committee and the commissions which have been instituted thereon. It is estimated that the sum of from fifteen, to twenty million# of dollars will have been saved to the tax payers of the conntry. And this is not ah. The exposures of glaring abuses which have been made hy the committee have led to many important reforms, which are saving large amounts of money daily; -and, by their examinations, the deportments have been enabled to more thoroughly scmitinlze their penditores and see where they can he redsccd. The commission of' three eminent cittzpna, Messrs. Davis, Holt and Campbell, to examine in?, to the affairs of tbe western department : sf St.' louls. folly confirms the conclusion which jour committee had came to in their former report, so for as regards that department. The stupendous abuses, connected with the purchase of arms, ammunition, &c., which attracted the attention of . jeuf eommittee at a very early period, and, which they .made every effort in their power to have corrected, have been made the eobject,of a special - comiiißSiott of Messrs. Holt and Owen, whose labors in that regard will show the almost inde scribable -amounts of money which have 'been eared the government in that respect. Having received the mostgratifiying evidences of. the public approval of their labors thns far, and sustained arid encouraged by the unanimous senti ment; of the country and by a vote of the House, approaching almost to unanimity, our committee will fed constrained to pursue their investiga tions' still further during the coining recess of Congress, if in their judgment the public interest shall demand it. The contemptous epithets and low abuse with which this mvtstigatiQg committee has been assailed, and the sneeiff which haveheen flung at its labors, prove that Its organization, was a national necessity, .and that the gentlemen who compose it hare thns far done their duly without feu or favor. Its efficiency we may say, without detracting anything from the zeal and In dustry ot his colleagues,' has been due mainly to the dogged deterounatiozi with which E. B. Washbumc earned out the iu etructions of the House. H!s 'constituents And 'the whole .country will be grateful for whiihfi hasdofie. ' The ground lost by Misrouri in t her race with the other Western States-4oat by reason .of the •; criminal compliance of her people with-the 4 ~mcae thafifc schooner load of be ie6oVmd in half a Bui hot the injury done that noble To suppress the rebellion, not mere ly to defend ourselves against it, should be our purpose in the present war. This poli ty should have been enunciated a* the very beginning of hostilities, before traitors and cowards had time to distract the public mind with jthe cunning but treacherous theory of self-defense. We might defend for half a century without settling the quarrel ' €b an ge of Sentiment In the Army* There is abundant evidence of a radical change of sentiment on the war, its causes and conduct, among those who compose the army. It has already been stated that Brigadier Gen. John A- Logan confesses to a radical change of sentiment. The Qolncy "Whig learns that Colonel Bane, of the 50th Illinois, and Cap tain McFall,of Colonel Carr’s cavalry, bath life-long Democrats and opponents to 44 aboli tion,” but after seeing slavery inita home, and learning from scars, wounds and insults the animus of secession, candidly confess to a change of sentiment It does not mean to say that they are either Republicans or Abolition ists, but It understands that they think the' war has thus far been prosecuted with too much regard for the feelings of traitors and of care for their slaves, and they are for such a change as will speedily end it, even if it cost the abolition of every woolly head in the land. In fact, they don’t care a straw what becomes of slavery, or how much the feelings of trai tors are 41 irritated,” if thereby the rebellion is speedily brought to a close and the authorities of the Union restored. These views, the Whig says, are also avowed by Major Hays, of the 16th Illinois, well kiiown as a leading Douglas politician of Pike •aunty. He acknowledges that his experiences In war have changed his views, and he thinks now that there can be no peace in this coun try while slavery continues to receive national protection. He wishes his old Democratic friends to know this, and not to couple their zeal for the Union with any conditions for the maintenance of slavery “ as it was.” California. We lately chronicled the overwhelming tri umph of the Republicans and Douglas Demo crats of Oregon, united in the defense of the Union, at their recent State election. We re joice to state that California is morally certain to imitate that triumph. A Union State con vention assembled at Sacramento on the 17th, and on the 18th unanimously nominated John Swett, principal of the Rincon Grammar School, San Francisco, for Superintendent of Public Instruction —the only State office to be filled by popular vote at the State election next September. He will of course be over whelmingly elected. The Sacramento Union says the Union of the two thoroughly loyal parties will extend to the legislative and county-tickets, and will of course be success ful throughout. A satisfactory Union plat form was cordially adopted, and a Union State committee of twenty-one appointed. Califor nia will send a new United States Senator to the next Congress. Cincinnati. They have a dally riot in Cincinnati nowa days. So intolerable has this state of things become that a public meeting was held a lew days since, at which the citizens resolved to organize for self-protection. Whereupon the rowdy, drunken mayor issued a proclamation —not to put down the Irish rioters —but the citizens who had taken means for their own protection. This is ia accordance with the previous operations of this drunkard. It will be recollected that a few weeks since, while drunk he assanlteda respectable citizen, got badly thrashed, for which he brought him before one of his tools, called “Judge Saifiu” and had him fined SSO, the extent of the law, for defending himself Atlantic Monthly, The following is a list of contents of the Atlantic Monthly for August.

JSf*" As connected with the threatened cotton famine in England, about which the journals and cotton lords of that country are now so lugubrious, it should be stated that the Loudon Times of the latest date received, acknowledges the fact that' England has been exporting cotton at the rate of 18,000 bales psr week during the past year—aggregating about 1,000,000 bales for the year, and for this amount exported, these cotton lords have se cured a profit of at least double what they would have realized had they manufactured It into doth. On the very week previous to this acknowledgement of the Times, the sates of cotton amounted to 153,870 bales, of which £5,000 bales was sold for export. If the British govern ment has penuitted.more than a million ofbalcs to be withdrawn from the country during tic past year, and nearly 36,000 bales during a single week, when the distress is at its height-, is It. fair to throw all the responsi bility of the present deficiency upon the .United Slates ? Is our country hound to fur nish cotton for the convenience and profit of British speculators and exporters ? * t3T* Minnesota has been divided into two congressional : districts, as by law required, and the Democrats have nominated Judge A.

Bis BTarclt from BatesriUeto Helena. HIS RKIBMISHKS WITH AHD BOUT OF THE ESEfIT. THE FIGHT AT MOUND HILL* Bbj. Oeßienlu of the 88d Dlinsls Mortally Wounded. [Special Correspondence Chicago Tribune.} Gatobo House, Memphis, July 16.1965. At last, after long weeks of impatient wait ing and watching on the part of the public, and the most strenuous exertions on the part of the military authorities, sided and assisted by the naval force, and alter the expedition up 'White Elver had proved a failure, while the utter ridn and devastation of his armywas al most a sure thing, we have reliable informa tion that Gen. Curtis and his entire army are safe at Helena, Arkansas, having arrived there yesterday. This important and heart-cheering informa tion was brought to the city to-day at 3 p. m., by Quartermaster F. 8. Winslow, of Gen. Cur tis’ staff. ' This gentleman came for supplies for the army, which were badly needed, the men and officers of the command'not having bfifl one day- of fan rations since January last. For some months they have been subsisting bn three-quarter rations, and suffering from a great -scarcity of water. The necessary provisions are' now on' the_ way to Helena, where Che army awaits their arrival. Capt, Winslow arrived at 3p. m. to day, reported to Post Quartermaster Henry S. Fitch, and in an hour had a steamer loaded with flour at his disposal, with steam up ready to proceed down the river. Other needed supplies will go. forward; as. feat as boats can be found for their transportation. This is pretty positive evidence that there is no sign of “ red tape” in the quartermaster’s department of the post of Memphis. Gen. Curtis’ official dispatches have been forwarded by telegraph to Gen. Halleck, di rected to Corinth, and will undoubtedly soon be made public. Knowing the interest which is attached to the news of the late and long concealed movements of Gen Curtis’ com mr.nd, I hasten to lay before the readers of Tub Tbibcwe an imperfect sketch of its pro ceedings for the past few weeks. The facts are staved as. gathered from several reliable sources. AT BATESTIXXE. The last information received from Gen. Cnnis was nearly a month since, through a telegraphic dispatch to Gen. Halleck He was then at Batesville, and on short rations. HE LEAVES BATESVHXE. On the Sith of June Gen. Curtis, ha-ring wailed long and patiently for the supplies bis command so badly needed, and which CoL Fitch and his brave Indiana troops were peril ing life, health and everything in the endeavor to furnish him, moved his army from Bates ville, determined to strike across the country and within reach of the Mississippi, where he suppOfctdGen. Grant to be, or be extermina ted in the trial.-All along the country through which the command was obliged to rnarcn, the soldiers were greatly -annoyed by bush whackers and guerrillas. They were not in large force, but in small bands of from thirty to one or two hundred, and their aim is-to . harrass pickets at night, and cut off and kill or capture stragglers in the rear of the van. They had not gone but about forty miles from BitesviUe and were at a point or plantation called Grand Glaize, when a detachment of the Sd lowa cavalry, which chanced to be in advance, was attacked by a superior force*-their numbers, after a severe struggle, were driven back to the main body and. Lieut. Griswold and two • privates of the cavalry killed. On the d*y succeeding this skirmish, Col. Bracket's cav r airy went out on a reconnoissance. met tbs same force of confederates and put them to flight without loss oa our side, but the enemy having several killed and some seriously wounded. A TIGHT AT MOUKD HILL. The force arrived at Clerendon—where they were unhappily preceded by twenty-four hours by CcL Filch, still hunting for them—on the 2d of July. There they certainly expected to find government supplies and dispatches, but they were doomed to disappointment—none were there. Finding no transports or provis ions at that point, Gen.. Curtis determined to push forwart to the Mississippi. ‘ A force was sent out from Clerendon, with the inten tion of reaching Helena, at the mouth ol the Arkansas. The order was shortly af terward given and the entire army moved. On the Tth inst,, by a strange coincidence, only one day after Col. Fitch had engaged a portion- of Hindman’s force, eight miles from St. Charles, in the forenoon, as Colonel Hovey was in the advance at the head of eight companies of infantry, the 33d Illinois, or Normal regiment, and a few cavalry, he was attacked by 2,000 rebels under General Albert Rust. A battle ensued which it would bo useless to attempt to describe. It was of short duration, brilliantly carried on, bravely fought by the federal force, and brought to a successful termination, the enemy retreating inglorionsly leaving their dead upon the field to the number of 110. It was a-perfect rout. The rebels did not dare to return to the charge, and soon thereafter the main army arrived upon the spet. This fight took place near Round Hill, between Clarendon and Augusta; 5,000 rebels, reposed near at hand, kept them selves well concealed. THE JOURXET COXTIKUEB. After burying the dead, and attending to our own forces, the march was resumed. Ia the brief eDgogemement alluded to above, brave Major Cicndcnia of the S3d Illinois wss mortally wounded, and Capt. Slome of tbe same command instantly killed. It was a sorrowful but necessary duty to leave the bodies on the battle-grounds, buried apart from those of their late rebel foe. THE FORCED MARCH. With an escort of 2.500 cavalry, Including the 9tb l!llnoiB, 13th Ilduois and sth Illinois, Quartermaster "Winslow Parted from Claren* don at 11 o'clock on the 11th lost., and after a forced march of sixty-five miles, without a drop of water for. men or horses, arrived at Helena at noon of the 12th—a forced march unprecedented In the annals of this war. The escort was commanded by Col. C. C. Wash hurne of "Wisconsin, to whom credit should be given for having made the fastest time over the worst conntry, on record. But Helena was reached. Helena proved for once a haven of rest. Their eyes were greeted with the eight of old Mississippi, and their hearts were once more rejoiced. The rebel cavalty located in the rear of Helena retreated, and did not give the federal* battle. Yesterday the entire army arrived at the game point. Tne difficulty had been overcome, the country had been crossed, Helena, the Mississippi, civilization, hgd been reached. No more starvation. No more cooping up in an enemy's country with out means of transportation. Taking the first boat that came along, the Ike EUmmet, the quartermaster came immediately to Mem phis for food tor his men. He wil; presently go to St. Lome tor all needed supplies, among which are clothing, tents and camp equipage. GEK. CUUTIS' AKiIY. The stories we have been continually re ceiving from the army of Gen. Cnrlis, to tne effect that it had not half food enough, was in fact in a state of starvation, and suffering ter ribly, I am happy to say, were without proper foundation in fact. The men have lived quite well upon three-quarter rations.'and arc cow reported in excellent spirits, good health, and anxious to have a band in the earliest ilgat that is down in the programme. The army is not a large one, but its force is great when brought agaiost the enemy. Ex cept the two skirmishes mentioned above and one or two ot her contests of pickets with those of the confederates, Gen. Curtis’ men have had nafighting since the battle of Pea Ridge. Capt. "Wadsworth of the 13th Illinois infan try was severely wounded in a skirmish he bad while conducting some to Augusta from Bitesvlilein which it was proposed to move the troops across White River. The captain is not considered-dangerons. He performed his duty, drove the rebels off, and landed the solely at Augusta as directed. Theat tack.was made thirty-seven miles belowßatea viUe. - - W.

Mr, Lamefl on the Chicago Times* • . Chicago, July 19,1862, tors Chicago Tribune A malignant personal attack Is made on mo in the Colcago Tunes this morning, of which I desire to take no notice except to correct a false statement ot facts. It is stated that in a speech made by me at the Union Defense Committee meeting, I said “that I rejoiced over the disaster at 801 l Bun, because It gate us an army, and that I was glad of the reverses before Bichmond, recently, because they would give usapolicy.” This is a gross misrepresentation of what I did say on the occasion alluded to. I made no remark whatever about the battle of 801 l Bun, but at the great war meeting at Bryan Ball, several months since, 1 said In substance that the battle of 801 l Bun seemed to us, <*t - ifc time, an overwhelming disaster; but look* ing back to it from our then stand point, we could see that it was jnst what the nation needed to give it a truer and .more solemn realization of the magnitude of the straggle on which It had entered, and of its real cnar- , ac ter; and the result was the organization of an army of half & million of men, in place of the insignificant force with which we com menced the contest. : In my remarks before the Union Defense- Committee, I did not say “ I was gUd of the reverses before Richmond.” I soldi was not cast down nor depressed by them, or induced thereby to doubt or despond as to our iuti~ mate triumph; ' But on the contrary, looting tothe final-purpose we had in view—the utter subjugation of this rebellion—l believed that from these very reverses had and would come & more thorough, energetic and vigorous war policy—a policy which would seek to make traitors andrebela everywhere feel the power-' of this government as they had never JelF it before—a- policy which would cause “us to use all means; In our power to crush the enemies of .the country. That if such should be its effect, and We. should begin to prosecute this war la dead earnest, to cease to use the soldiers of the republic to dig ditches, and raise entrench ments when there were thousands of acclima ted negro laborers right - around them ready and anxious to do this work—to cease to guard the property of rebels who were plotting the destruction of the best government on earth, while the property of Union men was taken and destroyed without limit—and to carry on this war as if it were wax—war against the enemies of the Republic, war for their utter subjugation, war which they should feel everywhere in their homes and fields and pro perty and person; war which should visit them with a severity of punishment and of suffering suited to teach them the enor mity ot their crime, and to make them expe rience rebellion as a terrible calamity, then I believed that these reverses would in truth be a more real victory for our cause than the tak ing of Richmond would have been, and would teed more to bringabout a speedy termination of the war. : Thteeare the sentiments I ntteredthere, and these are my sentiments now, and in expres sing them I Relieve I express what will be proved to be the sentiments of the whole loyal people of the North. The Times attributes to me in the same article what .it terns “the policy of “ emancipating all the negroes by federal au thority.” In this respect its statement is equally with out foundation. I said not a word on this oc-. casion about emancipation. I have never said anywhere, or at any time, that I was in fhvor of “a policy of emancipation of all the negroes by federal authority.” I have said, and I believe that the final re sult ol this war will be the destruction of this accursed institution of human slavery, and I have faith that after the enormous waste of life and treasure which has been made to over throw a rebellion of which slavery is acknowl edged to be the chief (and in my opinion the only real) cause, that the common sense and “soter second thought” of the nation and will either abolish the institution at once, or at least put it “in the course of ex tinction.” Whether this will be accomplished by an im mediate, unconditional emancipation through the military authorities,, and as a measure of war—or; by a system of gradual emancipation, initiated and carried on through the action and by the consent of the slave States themselves —depends on events in the future; and it is impossible for any man, in times like these, to form any judgment about what policy should he adopted. 1 am, for one, entirely content to leave the whole matter to the judgment of the President, in whose patriotism and integrity and wisdom 1 have the utmost confidence. The Tunes “leaves Hr. Lamed to thepub ‘ lie judgment, and to the sober, second tbo ught of the people.” He is quite willing to be left there, and has faith that, the principles which be serves are those which will be embodied in the future history ol thisgreafßepublic, and will live and flourish long after such papers as the Chicago Times have been forgotten, or visited by an indignant public with ihe just punishment which they deserve. Very respectfully, . E. C. Larked, A Tory Sheet, The Indianapolis Sentinel, the organ of the Bright and Yoorhees Democrats of Indiana, is nearly as secession as the tory Times in this city. Here is the way it aids recruiting; GOV. iIORTOK’S PLEDGE. Gov. Morton, on his recent visit to Wash ington, pledged “Honest Old Abe” 16,000 more volunteers from Indiana, if he "would adopt a coercive policy towards the confeder ate States, This pledge was made for the pur pose of stiffening the limber back of the presi dent, and to induce him to abandon the pacific policy announced by Mr. Seward. The. gov ernor will find it more easy to promise than to redeem his pledgee. The people of Indiana do not intend to engage in a crusade against the South for party purposes—to advance the schemes of the abolitionists and protectionists of New England and Pennsylvania. The southern States have not trespassed upon the rights of the people of Indiana, nor do they propose to do so. The legislation of the confederate States is not inimical to the inter ests of the northwest, but in harmony there with, while that of the Black Republican con gress discriminates against them. Governor Morton’s sympathies'are not with the people of Indiana, but with the sectional party in. the eastern States, who propose to make the labor of the people of the west tributary to the ad vancement of its interests —mere hewers of wood and drawers of water for the cotton nabobs of New England and the iron-masters of Pennsylvania. But to Governor Morton’s pledge. How soon.does he propose to open his recruiting t ffice ? Will he head the 16,000 volunteers he has pledged from Indiana to engage in the butchery of the men, women and children of tbe Sonth—of the people of the States who fought our battles and defended our hearth stones when unable alone to resist the foe ? The Indianapolis Journal thus comments on the order: “.The ConfederateStaleshave not trespassed on the rights of the people of Indiana.” No, they had blockaded the Hississidpl, in which Indiana has a vital interest; they had seized torts which Indiana money helped to build they bad robbed mints in which Indiana had arms. But “they had not trespassed on the rights of the people of Indiana I” They were very gentle and innocent and long-suffering. Their apologist and organ is profuse of admi ration at their patient and singularly lawful conduct. “ The legislation of the confederate States is not inimical to the Northwest,’’ says the attorney of Jeff Davis. Not at aIL They hsd confiscated all the property that citizens of the Northwest held within their limits; they had declared all the debts due to the North forfeited; they had prohibited any con federate citizen from paying debts to Northern men; they had laid a tax on all articles brought from the North, There is nothing “inimical” in that to our Interests, says the Sentinel. ; We would, ask the Journal how it comes that the loyal people of Indianapolis tolerate the existence of the secession Sentinel among them, were it not that it would retort by en quiring how it happens that the loyal people of Chicago permit the publication of the equally bad, of worse, secession Times. The Democracy and the War. The venerable A B. Johnson of Utica, N. Y. (father of Judge A 8. Johnson, late of the Court of Appeals,) has been for many years a respected and influential member of the Demo cratic party, mid has written very ably and forcibly in vindication of its leaders—with re gard to the war for the Union does not com mand his approbation, and In a private letter to an old friend he speaks out as follows; “ Gov. Seymour is out for the war, as are the Democratic ; leaders generally. . X. maintain ihat tlto Dembcratic party is more responsible -for the war than the Abolitionists. The South would never have hazarded a rebellion If they had expected an undivided North.

I will pqt the diurnal movements in order, to prevent confusion. Thdbsdat, Jane 28. This morning came bright, and clear. We were up at peep of day, and getting breakfast when the son rose in majesty to witness bloodshed. The first intimation. I had. of an attack was when a firing was heard in the-di rection of Smith’apoet, and- on coming up out of the field to the top of a bill, we .saw the post near at hand' had fallen back (per order) to headquarters. Hastening towards our post, we met the two squads coming in on doable quick, by orders per courier them. We formed on the left, and waited the approach inline. Then we learned fhat: Captain Hooker was wounded- 'dangerously and taken prisoner. He waa-ont on the Han over.road, with Major Dob tin, reconnoitecing some three-quarters of a' mile ;*when, as they were turning in at a gate, an -4 * ambush” fired a rifle anfimtihe* captain. Each then put', spurs to his horse, and mode s dash for the lines in a circuit; the captain failed to - return, either from accident or effect of wound. Companies Cand G,Captains Cleveland and Medill, (reserve) came up, and we fell back as the enemy-forced us. Our hoys were placed. where they could see the enemy, and many a... leaden messenger was sent to (meek the ad vancing rebels." The rebels advanced very cautiously and-slowly*-from fear of masked batteries or the deadly carbine. We deployed In every fleld,*and remained aslongaspossible,and then passed the de file. We thus continued till noon. A. like movement was enacted on the other roads to onr lef On reaching Shady Grove Church we become more consolidated, and with, a regi ment of infantry that came up, we manoeu vred until three o’clock, for the rebel skir mishers were hid in the dense foliage. All was silence, and as we did not know what movement the enemy might make, we fell back, leaving but a watch to notify us of their advance. At every defile we -felled the trees across the bridge, go that they were impeded from an advance of artillery in baste. We went to camp, and were immediately alarmed, as the attack became general, in front of an unfinished infantry redoubt. The Bth was ordered to support a battery to guard the right flank near onr camp. Our infantry After a brisk fire fell back behind the redoubt when volleys were poured into the advancing lines, the plan then was to leave tins, for it was almost useless to the rebels, and get un der cover of the brush in the intervening swamp, while a long rifle pit, behind which was a battery of artillery, and a brigade of in fantry, was to make tbe front. The rebels got their artillery posted, and the earth, was fairly shaken, with the roar of cannon from either height. This appeared to he vexations to the rebels, and a charge was ordered; down the hill they came, and were nearing the ambush on the double quick. This was some forty rods from the rifle pit, and eighty from : the redoubt. As a line appeared over a little hill wiihln a few rods of the 11 hidden line,” they rose, simultaneously, and poured several volleys into the frightened, terrified and routed enemy. The artillerists had looked on in breathless suspense, but now came their work, and grape and canister were showered amid the routed line, and they fairly laid in heaps. The redoubts on the left had also been at work, and our line extended all along the swamp. Night put an end to the struggle. Fbidat, fc'Ttb. At 3a. m. we (8lh) went to Gaines’ Mills. The firing was renewed at Mechauicaville, lasting two to three hours. But Gen. McC., aware of a fierce attack on his right wing, and knowing that Jackson bad been reinforced from Hlcbmond by Longstreet and Smith, hla other plan must be adopted, withdrawing his right wing over the Chickahominy, and evac uating White House, go en route to James River. This we surmised, as train after train of the right wing crossed New Bridge during Friday forenoon. The troops were ordered to fall back, and. cross in as good order as the, day and night would permit. Porter was in • command, and bad bis own and McCall’s divisions. The thing operated well till reaching onr last or nest to last check batteries.. Our troops resisted their furious advance in'a pmisworthy manner, but on came the fresh columns of the rebels* with; victorious cheers* and fresh cartridge boxes, while our men’s were nearly empty. Tae reserve across the bridge, under Gen. Slocum, was ordered to the front, and the enemy were’ driven back with ferocious yells, and crape and canister again were mowing down their squares and columns. Reinforcements of rebels kept coming, with lively imaginations of the result, and some of our regulars, who did not enlist to fight, but to get five years easy employment, came straggling t« the rear. Hundreds of wounded, also were making their way to the hospital. The ranks were being dangerously reduced In the front, till a line was but a scattering few, and the dust, confu sion and roar of artillery, announced to every I one that a panic was imminent. A few brave regiments, who had bnt an honr before rushed to the rescue of the broken front were falling back, thinning every moment. The whole val ley ht-lf a mile wide between the hill , and swamp, and in which three or four regiments of cavalry were . formed, was being filled with stragglers and wohnded. Tbc scene was heartrending. The colonel issued quick orders to form by squad ■ rocs into single line, across the field, and let none but wounded .and an attendant pass. With drawn sabres we demanded a halt to all but the bleeding, and several times were officers aud men ordered to halt and form into line, when they would often open their shirt bosom, and exhibit a wound, or lift their cartridge box lids, and reveal the facts, or show a shattered gun. Some were coming with an arm. or finger dangling. We could see onr line falling slowly hack through the clouds of dust and smoke. No running was seen, but the picture of sorrow and hope lessness was seen in every face of the infan try. The scene grows terrible. Not a man in the cavalry but awaits the order “Charge,” but it never came. Those that were rallied were soon a com pact line, and forward they moved, with but the bayonet as a defense. The coming strag glers hafted voluntarily, thinking they were fresh troops, and joining them formed a sec ond line of bailie, awaiting the enemy. Cheer after cheer arose from this line as they advanced. The rebels threw shells into onr very midst—we watched them but no one was hurt. Our two reserve batteries, as a last resort, poured forth in second-guns, when the rebel rush began. The firing slackened, and darkness, pitch darkness, put an end to the massacre. • -During the night detachments went out and brought in the wounded, for the enemy were somewhere else. Thus ended “ The Battle of New Bridge,” and by morning all our troops were on this side FIRST WISCONSIN CAVALRY. The Boys have a Skirmish, and Bout the Enemy. A leter from the Ist ‘Wisconsin cavalry, Col. Daniels, dated Gainsville, Ark., July 11th, af ter saving that the regiment is marching southward towards Curtis, has the follow* tog: Captain Hamden, commanding part of com panies Land H, was sent in advance of oar' column daring the night in search of rebels, reported to be in the vicinity of Scatterville. He scoured the woods, got on track of them and followed them to the village where they were discovered forming line across the road, apparently anticlpatingan attack. They were, nearly 100 strong,commanded by a lieutenant, and were composed of regular soldiers and a few conscripts just impressed into the ser vice. Lieut. Ankeny of co. L, with the advance guard on them with revolvers, while. Capt, Hamden rushed forward at the head - of his column. They returned a few shots, broke and scattered 1b every possible direction, over fences, through cornfields, and into the woods, pursued by our men at a furious rate, 'firing whenever they came in range, till not one could be found. The result was sis killed, a large number wounded, twelve prisoners, with thirty rifles and a few horses. The only harm done to our men was a'piece of skin cut off from a finger.

THE CLOSING DEBATE IN THE SENATE. SB* CUBE’S iHEJJDHEST-—ETQDESIS of ns iDopnon. Washihgtok, Ju1y16,1863. Mr. Clark called up the resolution from the House, explanatory of the confiscation act. Be offered as an amendment, that no punishment under the bill shall work the for feiture of real estate beyond the natural life of the person accused. Mr. Thumb uxx, opposed the amendment, as life forfeiture of real estate in the West, amounts to' nothing. Mr. Shebman of Ohio (Bep.) said that if the Senator (Clark) could, say that it was likely . thh president would Veto the bin unless this amendment was adopted, he (Sherman) was to vote for it, but he wanted the president to take the responsibility of it. Mr. Clark. I thick I may; say that lam authbrized'tb state that this amendment will remove one of-the objections of the president to the bill. One ot the objections of this amendment was an inducement to obtain the president’s signature; -He should also offer another amendment, that .the words 11 grant ing an amnesty” shall be construed so as to authorize the president to restore any property under the bill if he thinks it neces sary. Mr. Lane, of Indiana, (Rep.,) said that he was not willing to legislate under any duress. He would never surrender the independence of the Senate to the diction ot any president, however much we might trust him. ; Let the president, ii be does not like the bill, send it ■ back here with his veto, and then he (Lane) was willing to make the Issue between confis cation and no confiscation. He (Lane) was not willing to have the hands of the Senate tied by the executive or any other power this side of heaven. Mr. Clark .thought they might as well look to the question practically, and no stop at little points or etiquette. If there were honest objections we might as well try and harmonize them- Mr. King of New York, (Bep.,) thought that this wat an entirely new mode of legisla tion. If the president has objections to the bill, it is his business to send the bill back with his objections. It is time that we met the enemies cf this country fairly, and not with a timid policy. "We must defend the country from it enemies, and from any timid ity on the part of those whose duty it is to take care of the country. We must meet the question boldly, and not by this back-door legislation. He thought it a monstrous prec edent to establish. : Mr. Harris of New York, (Rep.) thought there was nothing so monstrous in this pro position. If the president had constitutional scruples, we ought to have proper respect for them. If we can pass this resolution and avoid a veto, he (Harris) thought it was best to do so. Mr. Wade of Ohio, (Eep.) thought that this was entirely a novel question. This way of coming in here Ulegilimately—in a war un known to the constitution—he did not like. He (Wade) did not know who was authorized to speak for the president or promulgate his views. If this is the way we are to legislate, we ought to have a committee to wait on the president, when we pass a bill, and ask what his “ royal” wish is ? and how much we shall alter a bill to escape his veto? This is dis graceful. It is a total surrender of the rights of this body. The only constitutional way for the president is, if he has objections to the bill, to state them in his veto. There is no other way for Mm to act, unless we desire to surrender all our constitutional rights and all the dignity of the Senate. This'way of coming in here with back-door vetoes cannot be tolerated. -It seems that some gentlemen have been to see the president—to learn Ms opinions. These gentlemen are very fortu nate. Most gentlemen, when they go to see the president, arc debarred from. Ms presence, and those only are admitted who are charged with his constitutional conscience, lie (Wade) would be very sorry if the president shonld veto this important measure. It would be the.saddest news that ever went out of this capital. If such, however, is to be tbe.case, he wanted the president to take all the responsibility of ms own actions. He (Wade) wanted no back-kitchen way of doing business. Mr. Wilson* ot Massachusetts (Rep.) said that he had been engaged here for months try ing to pass a confiscation bill of some sort, anil one finally •was passed, to which there were strong objections by some Senators. He(Wil son) regarded the present resolution os of little consequence, and if its passage would in any way satisfy anybody’s constitutional scruples, he (Wilson) was perfectly willing to vote for it. He admitted mode of legislation seemed improper, hut .he believed tart the great measure was far above all little irregu larities. If he could secure the passage of this bill, he would do so. Mr. Fessenden*, of Maine, (Rep.) said that he conld see no impropriety 1q any Senator asking the President about his views upon any bziL Such impropriety, if there is any, could not he charged strongly against him, (Fessenden,) for he had done it now for the first time in his life. He had been solicited by many gentlemen to inquire of the president as to his opinions on this bill, considering it to be veiy unfortunate-that there should be any difference of opinion between the President and Congress on so important a measure as this. It must be remembered that the presi dent is an important branch of this govern ment, and without his signature no .bill can become a law, without a two-thirds vote. The people are very much Interested in this meas ure, snd he (Fessenden) felt deep interest in it, and voted for it, though, with some hesita tion as to its constitutional bearings. He be lieved that whatever op niem the president expressed, he expressed honestly. What part of common sense is it when he con retain all the essential features of the bill, to refuse to have anything to do with it at all ? Is it* not best to do the best we can under the circum stances ? Is there any loss of dignity orchir acti r In passing such a resolution as this, or is it better that no bill should be passed? He (Fessenden) was willing to take all the re -1 sponslbility of going to the president, if there was any responsibility about it at aUL Mr. Powell, of Kentucky, (Opp.,) offered an amendment to the amendment offered by Mr. Clark, tostrike out the word “real,” 50 as to have the limitation to life forfeiture ap ply properly. Mr. Doolittlh.ol Wisconsin, (Rep.,) hoped the amendment would not be adopted. He should say nothing, as his views hadbeea. mis represented by the press. He had been charg ed with trying to protect the real estate of the rebels, when the reverse was the case. He wanted to get rid of all constitutional objec tions. He wanted to take all the real estate of the rebels, and repeople those States with new and loyal people. Mr. Lane, of Kansas, (Rep.,) was willing to standby the president.. He would not ask him to violate his conscience on. account of the Senator from New Hampshire (Clark) better for tbe people of Kansas, as they would get hold oi tbe rebel property much cheaper than otherwise, and he was perfectly williog to trust his constituents to get hold of the title in the future. Mr. Trumbull of Illinois, (Rep.,) did not wish to make the president violate his con science in any way; but is the president con nected with legislation in any way except by bis veto ? The Senate did not wish to come in conflict with the executive In any way, but the president in an unconstitutional way is bringing on a conflict between himself and the Senate- -in a very dangerous ‘way as he (Trum bull) thought. He (Trumbnll)-did not doubt at all that.the Senator from Maine (Fessenden) understood the views of the ..president cor rectly, but on some other billand some other occasion, some Senators who are not so accu rate might undertake to state the views of the president and make a mia_take, aud the Senate .might vote on entirely erroneous views. This resolution proposes an entirely new precedent. Such a thing has never been done before. The amendment proposed by the senator from. New Hampshire (Clark) was suggested simply and solely for the purpose of overcoming the objections which he (Trumbull) understood were made by the president. This seems like an attempt on the part of the president to coerce Congress. If tbe president has objec tions to tbe resolution, let him use his consti tutional prerogative, and veto the bill, and then it wJI not follow, as has been suggested,- that we have no bill, for the veto message cm be taken up and acted on, and if necessary,. the bill can be passed by a two-thirds voce. He (Trumbull) had felt a great deal of interest In the passage of a confiscation bDI, . Aui he believed that if one, bad been passed at the commencement ofthe'session, ,the rebel lion by this time would baye been suppressed The passage of such a bill would have beeu of more value to us than the taking of the rebel capital. It was just ai difference between say ing to the slaves of the rebels, escape from your toasters and come within our lines'and your shackles <*bali fall forever, and saying to them, if you come within - bur. lines yon • shall be driven back^■’ The rebels had confis cated all the property of Union men than they could lay their hands onj but of course rebel properly must.be protected, and when a Union army came upon it a guard must be placed around it andprotected Sothere was every inducement for men to side against tbe government for tben-'no harm would come to them from either side. We should have had plenty of Mends In the South if ;the confisca tion'policy been adopted, and men been told that If they took'anns against the'goveca toent their property would be taken. The "confiscation -biu makes it the duty of the president to. take tbe property of rebels .tor wild the expenses of the war, but the bill, if he understood it, did.not declare theforfeimre of real estate ot any convicted traitor, and Tie thought that when ihepresident came to, ex amine the b2l carefully he would fitTd no "such clause in it, and he (Trumbull) did not belieee ’ the veto message would ever reach the Bmate, . .and wohld’ not" believe ‘‘it tin he s4‘w it.' . .Thereforelie would hotpassthis resolutionto obviate any supposed objections.
