Ctihmtt. MONDAY, JULY 23,1303. Tint CHEAT WAB BILLY. The immense mass meetings of the peo ,yde on Saturday to respond to the Presi - dent’s pall for more men, and to give expression to the sentiment of Chicago upon the present national crisis, furnish -abundant sources of congratulation to eve ry loyal man. This vast uprising of the people—the second time within a week will give a material impetus to recruiting, will encourage the good work in every part of the State and of the west, will gladden mid inspire our sons and brothers in the -field to new and more glorious efforts, and will give to .the President and his Cabinet the assurance that the great popular heart of the "West j>eats responsive to those na tional edicts winch mark a new and glori ous page in the volume of our country’s •history. in cur local columns will be found a de tailed report of the occasion and the patri otic sentiments winch found utterance ■from the Ups of the various speakers. "They represented all classes of the com mmnity—Congressmen, military men, law yers, clergymen and merchants; all shades of party; all nationalities, and yet but one •common sentiment was expressed; a de termination to carry on. the war vigorous ly, and end it speedily; to employ every agency which the Almighty has placed in our hands; to make rebels pay the expen ses of the war they have originated; to forage upon the enemy; confiscate ~ his property; to place the Stars and Stripes in ■the hands of men who shall fight and not •dig to defend them, and let the negro do the diggiig, and if necessary fight too. *Xhe unqualified applause of the vast crowds at each rehearsal of these senti ments indicates that the people are follow ing the great ideas of progress and human ity, that they have suddenly and boldly leaped forward in the great march of time 4o a higher plane ef thought and action; that the hour of universal liberty to the -toHing millions draws nigh. the warning given. It will be seen by our dispatches froi "Washington, that President Lincoln lias given the requisite sixty days' warning to all persons referred to in the sixth section of the Confiscation Act, that they must cease their treasonable actions on or before •the expiration of the time named, or all the property, real or personal, of such traitors -—not including slaves —will be confiscated ■to the use of the United States. This proclamation does hot include any of the persons named in the fifth section of the -ict—president, Cabinet officers, members of Congress, officers of the army and navy, ■ etc., —all of whom are provided for in the section. No proclamation is required in their case—the law taking immediate •effect. The sixty days of grace is given to the rank and file to.lay down their arms and return to their allegiance or the penalty prescribed consists of the seizor® ojiO - confiscation of all their lands, chattels, moneys, stocks and credits. One of the days of grace has already expired, p'xfty-nine now remain. A NEW DEVELOP9IGNT OF NA- TIONALUT. It will be observed by our St Louis dis- ■ patches that a new idea of nationality has been developed in that city. A number of rebel Irishmen, who have been regu-1 larly naturalized, have voted for years, and \ in -every respect enjoyed and experienced j the rights of citizenship, took upon them selves to go before the British Consul and claim the protection due to British sub jects. This has been done to escape being enrolled in the military for the pro protection of our country. To tbe honor of their loyal brethren be it said, that they Immediately called a meeting, and notified the traitors that they could remain in St. Louis just twenty-four hours, and no longer J *Wc have a number of the same class of ■traitors in this city, and the application of tbe Rime inexorable rule would have a healthy effect. DRAFTING. A correspondent recently sent ns a rather lengthy connhunicatiou on the subject of •drafting. Its whole strength and point was excellently well condensed into the first few lines. He asked “if the State of Illinois lias tico million dollars to pay will she rely ttpon subscription or taxation f manifestly the latter, for thus only would the burden which belonged to the whole public to bear he evenly distributed. We must not under value, nor can we cease to admire the patri otic zeal which filled our first armies, and jgave us without conscription • an' army of sildiers for the Union which challenged the wonder of the world. Bat ! we must not forget that that very earnest ness, and the numbers which responded to it was a drain and no slight one, it garner ed the first crop. We are now in want 'Of men; three hundred thousand are called for. "We. shall yet need half a million. *Tiicrc is just as much patriotism now as before, and even more, for the whole coun try is ready lor the severest test of patriot ism—drafting. Every loyal man\s ready for the Government to layjits hand upon him, and there will be no hanging back. i We must not deceive ourselves on this • point Men are wanted, time is precious, 1 our army must be filled, and—it is not be ing filled by volunteering. If you seek the \ reason, answer the question why you do 1 not go yourself;—ask your neighbor j why he does not go ? The ties that hold j men to civil life and home duties are those > which it requires nerve to sunder. The j people wish to know the truth. The Gov-: ■eminent will be best served by a plain \ .■statement of the facts and an open remedy. | ~We are not writing of Illinois alone, but | ohr opinion is made up from facts sought! from divers and distant points in other ; States. In all of them, from Maine to Min nesota, there is a delay in coming forward, ; Jn all of them, men are seriously acknowl- j -edging the necessity of ultimate drafting. “Why not openly and fairly accept a ne- i <jessity„BO apparent. { Besides, there are reasons why this ‘ method of collecting an army is better than any other. Government may thus have its pick of men. A soldier needs a stout heart, but he must have stout legs. Be is the better for an earnest .patriotism, but he is useless without vigorous powers of digestion. For these requisitions the -system of medical inspection is provided. Any well versed medical practitioner is -siware of what is the Mr average of well -a.nd sound men in a community, and how many weaklings go to an average city ■crowd. The point we would make is thta 'that in the pressure for men by volunteer ing physical weaknesses are kept oat of right, and by favoritism of the medical in spector many men are passed who are un -suitable. Any visitor to our camps and hospitals during the past year has bad his heart pained by the pale boy faces turned up to him from the hard cot, or looking wistfully at him from the ranks on the toilsome march. Beyond all question the -<2an>estnesß of these men who thus evade the rules of the service is admirable, but if -** the spirit is willing, the flesh is weak.” •The prominent characteristic of the u good '.soldier** is his physical capacity to “en •dare hardship.” -Kow, on the contrary, when the draft be \ VOLUME XVI. gins, tie officers will for their oira interest take only able bodied men, and the process will be in reverse to that above named. All the weaknesses will come out in the rigid inspection, and a regiment of 1,000 men will be jost ten hundred able bodied, healthy and hardy men. These are what -we need, for we arc not playing war any longer. There might be other reasons urged why the draft is more equitable in principle, but the same reasoning will apply to the mode of raising money for war expenses. There. are men in Chicago who are wealthy who have not given a dollar to the cause of the Union. The war tax reaches these and exactly in proportion to their abundance. So there are men who will never volunteer, upon whom it is right that the country should call Let the work begin and go forward. There are sixty days given to traitors to prepare for the wrath to come. The interval should be employed in the array of men, and enunciation of principles which shall make the campaign of the coming fall, short, sharp, and decisive, and push the enemy to the walk For all tins the people are ready, and they shrink from no means for its accomplishment. READY, ATEI BEADY. The President is right in his views and and appreciation, of the crisis, hut unfor tunately believes himself far in advance of the people. He is not afraid! AiwweZf of a radical course, hut he fears that the great body of the loyal men are not ready for it. *VPli€n he 'warns the Bolder State men in plain terms of what must come to Slavery, he means that the change that is to take place is one that shall bring the great mass of the people up to his own stand-point. But the people are already there. Were the next news dispatch to be the President’s Froclama-. tion of Freedom to every slave who would lake up arms against the enemies of the Union, it would be received with one shout of Joy from the Atlantic to the Kocky Mountains. The meeting of Saturday was an abundant proof, as our readers will agree, that men of all parties are ready to do anything to save the ship. The Government needs only to watch such tokens to loom that the people are right and ready for emancipa tion for the sake of the Union. GEft£BU< ROUSSEAU. This Kentuckian has taken the place of Major General Mitchel as commander of the country about Huntsville, Alabama. A letter, •which we publish from that place, ihig morning, shows that the mantle of the energetic Mitchel has fallen upon the shoulders of a man worthy to succeed him. Rousseau comprehended the character of the rebellion at the start He never be lieved in the conciliating kid glove policy. Got readers will remember his speech at the Louisville banquet It was proposed to make him a Major General. But Gar rett Davis, Wickliffe, Malory & Co pro nounced himtoo radical, and certain mem bers of the Cabinet chimed in with them, and he was rejected 1 The most radical thing General Rousseau said in his speech was, that he thought more of the Union than he did of slavery, and if the latter stood in the way of the former, it must go under. But times have marvellously changed since then. THE FIVE CENT CAPTAINS. Gen. Pope’s handsome reward, offered for the return of an absent captain to his duties, is timely. It will not exhaust the public treasury at that rate to bring back all these shoulder-strapped heroes to their commands, and yet the sum named is fall price; for officers who pocket their pay and turn themselves into bar-room loafers. Sixty cents a dozen is all tbe lounging fel lows are worth to the countiy, whatever their grade. Death of Dr. Dennlston. The following announcement of the death of Dr. William Scott' Dekmston, of this city, will be received with deep sadness by bis may friends. He was a young gentleman of pure character, noble impulses, well skilled in bis profession, and an ardent and sincere patriot. The card appears in the NewTork papers. Dr. Denniston, who had been engaged as a volunteer surgeon at the general hospital op posite Harrison’s Landing, was attached with typhoid fever, and his safety seemed to de mand his removal. This morning 1m was cir ried on an ambulance to the boat, and placed in a s tare-ioom. He occupied the lower berth, and a man was detailed to take care of him. When near the Chickahominy River, the cry was raised that “a man was over board.” liismn'xya light boat was manned and on the water in search ofhim. The search however, was unsuccessful. On the return of the boat we immediately missed onr friend Denniston, who bad vacated his state-room. A thorough search was made] for him through the bnat,bnt we failed to find him on board. Pa pers found floating on the water and brought i back by the small boat, revealed the sad fate of Dr. Denniston. Inspecting his room, we found two purses, a case of surgical in struments, and his watch. His spectacle? were left with his coat and vest in the upper berth. Several of bis friends hod visited him Irequectly, and found he hod taken theupper berth, li is proper for us to add that moder ate delirium had marked his case the night and : morning before, but the delirium being mild, I and at no Ume of a wild nature, no appro ! hention was in any way excited in regard to ■ him. This statement is made for the informa . lion and gratification of his distressed rela i liens and friends and on interested public, j We need not say this most unhappy incident I has filled us with the deepest sadness, and | that we tender to his afflicted friends o { deep and heartfelt confidence. deep and heartfelt confidence. A Bebel Operator Beads Gen. Hal letk-s Dispatches for Four Bars. Memphis, Tenn., July 23, XB6S. The telegraph line between Memphis and Corinth is exceedingly important. Gen. HU leek’s messages to Cora-Davis, Gen. Curtis, and the commandant of this post have all passed over it. Little of the- lino is guarded, but ol late the rebels have refrained from cut ting the wires. Their unusual amiability is now explained—they found a better use for For a week the Memphis operators have de tected something wrong in the working of the : instruments, and surmised that some outsider ! was sharing their telegraphic secrets. They I communicated this suspicion to the snperin j tendent at Corinth, who promised to keep a i sharp lookvnt. i Yesterday, they discovered that their nnla ' Tiled confidant conld talk as well as listen, i The transmission of a message was suddenly interrupted by the ejaculation, “ 0 pshaw!” ! A moment after it was again broken with ! "Hurrah for Jeff Davis!” I Individuality shows itself as well in tele ! graphing as in the footstep, or In handwriting. , Mr. Hail, one of the Memphis operators, in j stantly recognized the performer, not by his tune, but his time, as a young man formerly I in Buffalo and other Northern offices, bat now employed by the Confederates. Mr. Hail surprised him by replying promptly, “ Ed. . Saville, if you don’t want to be hung, you i had better leave! Our cavalry is closing in ■ on both sides of you!” I There was a little pause, and then the reply: 1 “ How in the world did yon know me? How > | ever. I’ve been here four days, and learned ail i we want to know. As this is becoming rather , : a tight place, I think I teiU leave. Ton’Ll see ' j me again when yon least expect it. 'Good . I bye, boys!” I The rebel operator made good his escape. : j He had cut the wire, inserted a piece of hie I • own, and by a pocket instrument been read r ! ing our official dispatches. Some of the ut j most importance, giving the very Information r i most desired by the rebels, were passing, and i ae they were sot in cipher, he must have re* 1 ceived them. One from Gen. Hovey, Com : I xn&ndant of this post, in reply to a question f l from Gen. Halleck, stated the precise number of our available meu inMemphis (only aboac " 3,000,) and their exact location I - The ill effect of this exposure of our weak i ness has been guarded against as far as possi ble. Gen. W.T. Sherman has already started 9 for Memphis with two of the three divisions 1 under his command, and will arrive to-day. So we are in no special danger of a rebel dash. J This brilliant and audacious telegraphic e feat was performed between here and Mos a cow, only twenty-t wo miles distant, and pro c bsbly within fifteen miles of Memphis! We o are at a loss here to understand why, after If the tuemy has disappeared, the uugnlficeat „ army with which Gen. Halleck threatened Corinth is unable to guard 200 miles of rall d road and telegrspht or to famish fifteen or . twenty thousandvmen for the capture of L ~ Vicksburg. W© hope that our brilliant suc cesses in the West are not to be followed by 3- an era of How Not to Do it. ROM CAIRO AND BELOW. i REBEL SAID ISIO FiOS ESCE, AlißittA.

The Rebel Ram Arkansas not Cap* lured. [Special Despatch to the Chicago Tribune.] Cairo, July 26, By the Woodford we have an account of an attack by a party of guerrillas upon CoL Gav in, Lieut Broden, and the surgeon of the In diana regiment, while on their way from their camp to Henderson, distant twelve miles. When about eight miles from, camp they were fired upon from the bush. The colonel re ceived a buck shot in the hand, and the lieu tenant a ball through the heart, instantly killing him. The surgeon was unhurt. Lieut. Broden belonged in Greensburg, Inch, and had only enlisted for thirty days. His body was conveyed to Evansville. Another force ot 150 men went up from Paducah yesterday. The ram Monarch came down from Mound City this afternoon, having completed her re pairs . No boats up from Memphis to day. Caibo, July 26,1862. There is news from the Tennessee river of rebel raid upon Florence, Ala., a large force having entered the place, binned all the gov ernment 'warehouses and commissary and quartermasters stores. They also burned the government steamer Coloma, after taking all the money belonging to the boat and passen gers. The property destroyed was of great VJ •alne. also captured a small detach ment of Mitchell's army, detailed to guard supplies. They also proceeded to Chickasaw and Waterloo, a few miles helow, and burned all the cotton in warehouses; at the same time another party attacked and captured about fifteen miles from Pittsburg Landing, a train of sixty wagons loaded with commissary and goYcrnment stores. Catbo, July 26,1552. Matters in Cairo are rather quiet to-day. The commission are doing a brisk business as this being the last day for the presentation of claims alarge number have been handed In. The Gen. Anderson arrived this eveningand reports all quiet at Henderson. She left 150 men there brought from Evansville. The Sdver Moon, this morning, brought ftp a large number of furloughed officers and men from Curtis’ army; also thirty-two secesh prisoners of Hindman’s and Price’s forces, captured- by'Curtis. The officers corroborate my report yesterday that Price had not crossed the Mississippi, and that Hindman had no considerable force. A rebel officer captured just before they left, stated that he had left Price a few days previously, who was on. the other etde of the river moving South. The "Wilson has just arrived from Vicksburg, which place she left on Friday last. She start ed with four empty harges in tow, and when at Princeton Point, ninety-five miles above Vicksburgh, she was fired upon from a rebel masked battery of six 13-pounders, and by a large force of riflemen. She received in all forty-eight shots, eighteen of which were from ariillery, and to effect her own escape was obliged to cut loose from the barges. Fortu nately no one on board was injured, though some narrow escapes were had. The steward lay sick in his room, through which a dozen balls passed under and over him, smashing the furniture and sompletely riddling articles of clothing hangng about the room. One shell burst directly under the boiler, the boat in fact is completely riddled with rifle and cannon shots, and it is a most singular coincidence that no one on board was injured. When about sixty miles above the Point, the Wilson met the DeSoto bound down and warned her of the danger, she, however, kept on, and fears arc entertained that she has been captured. [To the Associated Press.] Cairo, Jane 26.— The Woodford has just ar rived and brings news from Henderson, Ken tucky, to Thursday evening. As CoL Covin, of the 7th Indlana,and half a dozen others, were returning to Henderson from, camp, seventeen miles on r , and when near eight miles from j town,were fired at by four rebel bushwhackers \ who rnn as soon as they had fired. The colonel was wounded in the hand by a back shot. Lieut. Broden was Instantly killed by a ritle shot in the breast, and a doctor was wounded severely in the right shoulder. An order has been issued at Columbus, Kentucky, forbidding women from going South over the railroad from that place. The commander of the rebel gunboat Arkan sas is J, N.

One hundred and twenty, mostly youths, received permits to depart south. AH who do not take the oath or leave the city to day are to be consid ered as spies. News from Vicksburg is unimportant.

[SpecialDispatch to the Chicago Tribune.] St. Lotus, July 96,1662. An order has been issued directing the peo* ble of tbe Interior counties to deliver np all tbe arms and ammunition in their possession ■within twenty-days, on pain of confiscation. A promise is made that the property will be returned when the war is over. Information has been received that a large force of guerrillas from Arkansas bare entered the State in Howell and Ozark counties. They are under Coleman, Mcßride, and Hawthorne, and Union men from these counties, as well as Texas, Wright, and parts of Pulaski, arc fleeing towards Lebannon, Springfield and Holla Cor protection. Arrests lor disloyalty are numerous, includ ing BeveraLltUhmen who have voted at elcc lions foryears, and-to avoid enrollment have taken out British protection papers. Adolphus Paul was arrested for refusing to act as assistant enrolling officer on the ground that he did sot approve of the object. Isadore Morrison, a pretty fetual brought from Cairo recently on the charge of acting as a spy, attempted to commit 'suicide last night by swallowing an overdose, of opium, but failed to succeed. Christopher Eeiselger, Christopher Bur gees, and Benedict Simpson, of Perry county, Missouri, and Wm, Clayton, of Chester* Illinois, were arrested in the latter place yesterday, and brought here to-day for using ' disloyal language. The loyal Irishmen in mass meeting, lost night, denounced the protection seekers, and resolvtd to give them twenty-fonr hours to leave town. The result is that to-day very few applications haveheen made at the Con sul’s office for papers. A crowd was on hand, however, to punish those who did. A paint er named Hogan, a veritable Englishman, was the only individual assaulted. The County Commissioners of St. Louis county have resolved to apppropriate SIOO,OOO as a bounty fund for volunteers. Eebel jayhawkers are stealing all the homes in Boone county. Missouri River captains report everything quiet along the river. Reports of a steamer being fired on below Memphis have caused the withdrawal of con siderable freight intended for the lower Mis sissippi, for fear that batteries may be erected to capture boats and cargoes. St. Louis, July 26.—The j Democrat leirns from a reliable source that the County Com missioners of tbe county of St. Louis hive agreed to appropriate SIOO 000 for tbe benefit of the families of volunteers who enlist under the new call of the President, or who enter the State service from this county under Gov. Gamble. This -will go lar to encourage the speedily filling up of the new regiments now in process of formation in this city. St. Louis, July 26.—Considerable excite ment existed yesterday at the British Consol’s office, in consequence of a large number of persons claiming protection under the British .flag, to exempt them from, enrollment iu the militia under the recent order of the Govern or. An excited crowd was aronnd the office, among whom were many indignant citizens, present to punish the perfidy of those Ameri can residents having families and business permanently locatedbere, who, in the honr of peril, seek to sneak from duty by enrolling themselves subjects of Britain. Several persons, in attempting to get pro tection papers, were severely handled by the crowd. Numerous arrests were made. Seve ral affrays and struggles occurred between the disturbers and policemen, who, with one or two attempts at resistance, arrested the par ties, , A detachment of the Provost Guard was ordered out, and by their timely exertions all was suppressed.

And be it further enacted, That if any person within any State or Territory of the United states, other than those named as aforesaid, after the passage of this act, being engaged in armed rebellion against the government of the United States, or aiding or abetting such rebellion, shall not, within sixty days after public warning and proclamation duly given and made by the presi dent of the United States, cease to aid. counte nance and abet such rebellion, and return to his allegiance to the United States, all the estates and property, monevs, stocks and credits of each person hbafl be liable to seizure as aforesaid, and It shall be the duty of the president to seize and use them as aforesaid, or the proceeds thereof. And all sales, transfers, or conveyances of any such property after the expiration of the said sixty days from the date of each warning and proclamation shall he null and void; and it shall be a sufficient bar to any anit brought by such person for the possession or the nso of ench prop erty, or any of it, to allege and prove that he is one of the persons described in tide section. Washington, July 26.—The official docu ments necessary for the consummation of the recently arranged agreement for a general ex change of prisoners has been forwarded to Gen. Dix. The position of Secretary Seward, and evi dently authoritative, is puolished this morn ing, from which, in the language of the arti cle, it appears he .is content, as he hitherto has been, to remain where he is so long as this canselss and inequitous war continues, and so long as the chosen chief magistrate of the country requires it, even though his advice should be overruled, wbichbappensveryrare ly, and theu in coses which his own j u figment, better informed, approved. At the same time, he wonld not, if he could, for any reason pro long his stay in the place he now bolds one hoar beond the time when the president shall think it wise to relieve him. And when he shall retire from it it will be with the deter mination he has more than once before cx- pressed, under no circumstances, whatever, to be a place holder in the service of bis coun try, even, although, as he'confidently expects it shall emerge in its foil strenth and greatness from Its present troubles. He hopes no one of his fellow citizens think so unkindly ot him as to suppose he would be content to exercise power In a fraction of It, IT it should consent to be divided. Washington, July 26.— The following is a copy of the letter from the Secretary of War to the joint committee of the New York Common Council on national affairs: War Department, July 26. Gentlemen: Tour views respecting the re cruiting service and the proper measures to en courage it have been attentively considered by the President, and the following regulations, es tablished by the Department, are expected to attain the object you desire; First, the Adjutant-General will detail an offi cer at each rendezvous for mustering in recruits, who will pav to each recruit hie proper share of bounty, and also pay the recruiting fee at the time he is mustered into the service of the United States. Second, it being of paramount Importance to fill np the old regiments speedily, a fee to recruits to the old regiments will be paid, to wit: four dollars for each recruit. Third, the recruits will be clothed, armed and equipped without delay and placed in a camp of Instruction. Any other practical suggestion you may be pleased to offer will always be respectfully con sidered by this Department. Tours truly. EDWIN 3f. STANTON. Secretary of War. An official list 'will be prepared of all sol diers absent without leave, which will be of great service to the corporation of New York in controlling the payment of the relief fund. From accounts recently received from the headquarters of the army of the Potomac, the official report of the battles before Richmond states the number of killed, wounded, miss ing and prisoners approximating to 16,000. It is officially published that the call of Gov. Curtin for more twelve months men was madewithout previous consultation with or direction of the president, or war department, end having been made, It was deemed by the president and war department better to accept £uch troops as are offered under that call, but It is proper to notice that the law does not al low any bounty to the nine months men, ex cept the $25 paid at the time of belog mus tered Into service. The remaining $75 Is paya ble only to those who enlist for three years or during the war. The president. In an official order,announces the death of ex-president Martin Yan Buren. He says: “ This event will occasion mourn ing in the nation for the loss Of a citizen and public servant, and his memory will be grate fully cherished! 1 ’ As a mark of respect, the executive mansion and the several executive departments, excepting the war and navy, are being draped with black, and nearly all public business has been ordered to be sus pended to-day. The war and navy depart ments will cause suitable honors to be paid on this occasion to the memory of the dead, such as flags at half-mast, firing of cannon, etc. New Yoke, July 26,—The New York Trib une's Washington dispatch says it.hu been known to the military authorities ever since Colonel Davies’ cavalry expedition to Beaver Dam, that the enemy was sending some of its best troops, among them the divisions of Longs tree t, Swell and Hill to join Jackson between Gordonsville and Stanton. It is not believed, however,* that Jackson’s whole force there numbers more than 30,000 men. His purpose Is thought to be to push up the valley of tbeSbenaadoah, and it practicable Invade Maryland. Paymaster-General Lamed still continues very low. The letter from Norfolk states that there have been several cases of yellow fever there. A special to the N. Y. Times says: “ The pott master-general and secretary of the treasury have had almost daily consultations on the stamp currency. It seems difficult to decide the question of jurisdiction to-day. However, a compromise has been effected be tween the two parties, viz: The post office department is to order and prepare the stamps, and deliver them to the treasury department for distribution, Tney are to be of all the de nominations from one to thirty cents, and some will be ready for use on or before the 10th proximo.

All things considered, it was one of. the greatest triumphs of genius that has been awarded to the farmers—a successful de monstration of mind over matter. The farmer who has been working with a machine for three or four years, was astonished at the re sult of to-day. Fourteen reapers, all at work at cnee, and all doing work that ten years ago would have been thought impossible.. We are proud of these mowers, and more proud that we hare the broad acres adapted to their use. The board have modified their views in re gard to the press and public, and to-day ap pear to fully appreciate that they are not mil itary dictators, and that not only the inventors hut the reapers buying public have gome rights that they are bound to respect. The press is determined to see fair play, and it Is but due the' public to know that the board' have seen their error in excluding them from'? the grounds, and made apology by revoking the obnoxious order. We hope thejfcwill gqf further, and do full' justice by giving their re port to the public at an early day. We claim that the board have labored most faithfully and honestly in the premises, but the want of Bjbtfm and the aid of experts have been un fortunate at this .trial, for they hare, other data than the public by which to’fbffif* an award that shall stand the test of sound mechanical criticism. Give us the award, gentlemen, so that if there is any new sug gestions that the machines being made for the next harvest may have the benefit of them, and not wait until the legislature may order the printing of it on the transactions. The details of to-day’s trial, we send per mail. Rural. Officers Ambuscaded—The Gnerrllßu Threatening Burlington, Ky* Indiakatolis, July 25. —Wnile Col.

From the 65th Regiment—A Success* Headquarters 65th Scotch RnonrexT. ? Martinbbueo, VIRGINIA, July 81,1863. f Editors Chicago Tribune: An outlying picket composed of Company I, and a few cavalry of CoL Voss* Regiment lying beside onr camp, under the command of Captain Hapes and Lieutenant Knowles, were sent to guard a pass in the North Moun tain, distant about seven miles. Along this route Ashby’s cavalry and guerrilla parties are used to enter this valley on their plundering raids. Our Col. wished to get hold of a few of these active rebels, and close this region against sudden inroads; he therefore laid this trap. It was eminently successful. Through the vigilance of oar pickets three notations characters were caught on Tuesday night, last week. A member of the late rebel Con* S' ess, a captain of a guerrilla company and the te rebel Postmaster of Martinsbarg, Gov ernment been on the look-out for them for months. They are now safe in Fort Henry, Lieut. Knowles had the honor of taking them down to Gen. Wool, to Baltimore last Friday, and was highly-complimented by the General for hia intelligence and earnestness in the matter. Li a letter to Col. Cameron, Gen. Wool mentions the young soldier sent, in flattering terms. Thus the Scotch regiment is already mat-fog its mark. We took three men prisoners, two war. horses, seven loaded muskets, two cartridge boxes and bayonets in the same region last night. Company G. had the honor this time. _ Chas. HrtA Rob, Chaplain. A Chicago San comes to Grief. [From the N. T. Evening Post.] Lovejoy’s hotel was the scene of a little in cident the other day, rather unpleasant to the individual chiefly concerned. His name was Walsh, from Chicago, and the other day he fell asleep in the sitting room of the hotels where he soon became somnolently oblivious. While he thus neglected to watch his watch, his companion, william Churchill, a New York carman, as it is alleged, did not forget to prey, for when Walsh woke up his gold watch and ebatn, valued at S3OO, were gone. - Louisvnxs, July 35.—There were several commitments to the military prisons to-day;, among them Held W. ■H. Hopson, recently in the rebel army, who will be sent south of the Federal lines. far The splendid mammoth steamers on Lake Erie, the City of Buffalo and Western Metropolis, are to be dismantled, stripped of all upper works, engines, etc., and the hulls converted into barks. The engines have been sold on the Atlantic coast. The old regiments ought to be filled up. Military men apart, and common sense' confirms the opinion, that three hundred re cruits in an old regiment are worth more than three times thfee hundred-in a new organisa tion. Pr He who contributes nothing to the support of the army, should blush to hear the word “loyalty,” spoken. Action. Drxoir, July 53.1862. Sailed. fol Skirmish, Committed to Prison.

Pofe’s New Orders well Received, FIVE CENT SHOULDER STRAPS. Mr. £e-ward’s Relations to the Cabinet. ISpedal Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.} WASSiKOTOir, July 27,1608. It is generally admitted that the rebels un der Jackson and* Ewell are making prepara tions either to attack Pope’s forces or move down the west side of the Shenandoah. Some w< rell informed men insist that a battle may come off in three or four days. Everything wonld depend npon such battle, and the con sequences of a defeat could hardly he estima ted. -Reports of- fighting there have been current* to-day, but can hardly he tme. A dispatch was received from ShenyvlUe thfc morning, which would certainly have made some allusion to it if there had been any. Gens. Halleck and Burnside returned from the Peninsula to-day. Halleck immediately called on the President and had a consulta tion. Perhaps la view of the kind ot dis patches afterward sent from here, it may be well to explain that the results of the confer rence have not been furnished to correspon dents. Pope’s latest order putting a stop 2to the practice of guarding rebel property is directly in the teeth of ;one of his .carps, also of the whole practice in the Peninsula. Ic gives great satisfaction. That order offering a reward ofj five cents for the apprehension of a certain officer ab sent without leave from his command, will have a wholesome effect on-crowds or officers swarming about the hotel bars in this city, Baltimore and New York, whose presence was t absolutely needed with their men.} 1 4^” The following is the significant portion of the National Intelligencer's article by authority explanative of Mr. Seward’s relations in the cabinet. It was omitted by the associated press. The secretary truly admitted that every, ru mor of division of counsels and of conflict amongor about generals, every private jea£ ousy,’and even utterance of any private grief tends to- defeat prompt response to thegpv '‘erpxnenfc’s caHa for reinforcements. He never nor assumed any power In the pro gress of this war which was not especially charged by the president, and in performance of which he was not always in free.communi cation with him. He had never expressed cither to president nor any other person distrust of any of his associates, bnt hud nniiormly supported and defended them all; had not Jaeen. quick or willing to entertain complaints-'against any general whether Scott or McDowell,.Fremont or McClellan, Halleck, Grant, Buell, Sigel, Shields or Blcnker, but has exerted his best endeavors to sustain them all more when, they encountered defeats than when they achieved victories. Ho has never introduced nor encouraged any test question in the cabinet concerning men or measures, nor the rejection of any men, nor the adop tion or rejection of any measures as a condi tion of adherence to the administration. He has never purposed removal or overruling propositions of any member of the cabinet, nor has he thought of resigning his own place In It, nor has one word of distrust passed be tween the president nor any of his official ad visers and himself, This explanation has rather a depressing In fluence than otherwise. It Is interpreted as in dicating Seward’s cantinued ascendency over the president, and the consequent continued danger of his reverting to the old rose-water war policy. the guekrilla was in KENTUCKY. r More Work Tkreatened'Along tie Oiio, MDUHD CITY, ILL., BELIEVED IN .DANDER.
