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

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

the traitors that they could remain in St.

■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

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

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.

There is news from the Tennessee river of
rebel raid upon Florence, Ala., a large force
having entered the place, binned all the gov

quartermasters stores. They also burned the
government steamer Coloma, after taking all
the money belonging to the boat and passen

•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.

Matters in Cairo are rather quiet to-day.
The commission are doing a brisk business

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,

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.

United States, to return to their proper alle

[Section 6 of the Confiscation Act, referred
to in the above, reads as follows:]
Sec. 6. 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

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

Gen. Dix.
The position of Secretary Seward, and evi

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

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

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

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

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

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

this occasion to the memory of the dead, such
as flags at half-mast, firing of cannon, etc.

THE REAPER-TRIAL.
Close of the Exhibition.
The Trial a Very Successful' One.
The Board Modify their Previous
[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune ]
The great reaper trial closed: to day at three
p. m- The crowning effort -was ia cattiog a
piece of prairie grass, the most unpromising
that ever come under our notice. Fourteen
machines entered the lists. Some three or
four others had not the courage to try their
hands. All the machines did good work, and
It will he a d.fficnlt matter to settle ou the
best one. 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.

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

last week. A member of the late rebel Con*

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

[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

among them Held W. ■H. Hopson, recently

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

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 metallic Burial Casket,
Detroit, July 2‘
Of which we hare several designs. Is associated with
none of those feelings of revolt which usually accom
pany the appearance of a coffin. Its top Is composed
mostly of mavy Polished Plate Gla«a. permitting a
full tier without the removal of the lid.
These Burial C»*es a™*! Caskets protect the remains
of the departed Rom Water, Vermin, or other intru
sion. They are a sure safeguard against Infection
fromConteglousDlseasea. Any delay rcccstary await

ble Future removal, should It ever be desired, may
be accomplished without Inconvenience.
With these advantages, they are uneqoalledhy any

These Cases and Caskets are famished by underta
