TVe hare do heart to say anything about
the capture of Harper's Fcny, no ingenui
ty to invent excuses for palliating the hor
rible mismanagement winch has achieved
this deplorable result "Wc'can only exhort
our waders to exercise patience—to wait
for the day in which the command of our
armies will be entrusted to men who arc
capable of something besides writing bui
lt tins as false as they arc A iming.
TVe regret to say that Illinois was repre
sented in the surrender. Col. Voss’ cavalry
was in the neighborhood; but has probably
escaped, with General Julius White—a
] xecc of good luck which Capt Phillips’
Vattcry and Col Cameron’s Scotch regi
ment, the gallant Highlanders—all with
Col. Miles at the Ferry, did not share. We
await the list of killed and wounded with
anxiety deepened by the love that ;we
have in the men who have been engaged.
Our dispatches say that our force at Har
per's Feny was four thousand men. We
received a letter from Gen. White only a
few days ago, in which he slat :d
that Gen. Miles had tea thousand
trootis, and that he (White) hid in
Ids command at Msortinsburg only twen
ty-four hundred. Bat to the number more
or less, vc have lost the position, and the
line of rebel retreat is open and the cam
paigu -in Maryland, unless the rebels re
sume the offensive before McClellan, is at
un end, and we go hash at once to the
point from winch wc set out when Patter
son let Johnson escape. Tnis is the strat
egy of West Point.

as pioneers to smooth the way for others.
The expedition will land at Chiriqal on the
Isthmus, two hundred miles norta of Aspln
waU and the Panama RiUroad. If no ejec
tion is made by the Chiriqal government on
arrival, a landing will be made in Chldqni
Xagoon, a fine bay looking northward, with
several rivers flowing Into it from the south.
If objection be made on the part of the
present administration of the State, or it the

The expedition will be well snpplltd with pro

EMANCIPATION,
Rev. W. W. Patton and Rev. John Demp

ing held at Chicago a week ago, presented to
the president a memorial in xavor of emanci

Mr. Lincoln appeared to listen with great
attention to the reading of the memorial, and
afterward conversed lor more than an hour
with the delegation, giving his views on the
question raised with apparently great freedom
and frankness, and dtecusticg the arguments
pro and con with much earnestness. He de
clared that the subject of emancipation occu
pied his mind by day and by night, and was
brought renewedly to his attention by the
course of events and by the arguments ad
dressed to him on one side and tac other.
He was urged in difierent directions, he
said, by religions men of different views. He
wanted to be satisfied, before issuing a "pro
clamation of freedom, it would not lie a (>rn.
tumjubuaif that it would really accomplish
Itsj cld in strengthening the cau-e of the
Union and giving liberty to the slaves. He

My father, wo have heard, and do h«iar ev-'iy

you ate in trouble; that you have been lu

red clii’dren has tak*n up the knife and toma
hawk against you; that they have killed and
r.nrdered both men, women and children.
They have destroyed everything they could
laj their hacus on. They arc blind; they do
not appreciate your kindness. Tne Great
Spirit looks down on that people with ven
geance. We raise the spirit of the Chippewa
t-n* inks to averge the wrongs perpetrated on
tb« ir white brethren.
My father, yon know that he is our enemy,
therefore we beg that you give u- a chanci to
show you that we are your friends and wish
to serve yon —to help you to preserve peace
and tranquillity among your children. We
arc willing to go and help you to pat. down
the evil spirit of my old enemy. Give ns au
opportunity to show yon that we are loyal to
the great father and his laws, and that wc ai>-
prcciate his kindness towards ns. We
think that our great father has enough
to do down South for bis soldiers;
let him send them down there, and send
us to light our red enemy. Wc are ready
to go; provide us with means and we will go.
Wc are willing to obey orders and be led by a
white captaiu, but on the battle-field we want
cur own captains and want to fight in onr own
mode of fighting. Pay onr expenses and pro
vide for our families while we are gone. Wc

My father, give ns your concent, and wc

Washington*, Sept. 10,1562.
I’ is believed at the war department that
Harper’s Ferry was enrrendcred to the rebel i
at H o’clock a. m., yesterday, alter CoL Miles
had beta mortally wounded.
Accounts to that effect, none of them offi
cial. have bteu received, both via Cham
btrsbnrg and Point of Bocks. If it be
true, nothing caa prevent the mass of the
rebel army from making good its retreat iato
Virginia,
Gan. White’s cavairyforce cut its way out
from Harper’s Ferry on Sunday night, and
started for Chambersburg, capturing Long
bircel’s ammunition train, and other wagons
to the number of sixty in all, on their way.
The commander of the cavalry reports that
Cot Miles had declared that he could not hold
Harper’s Ferry longertban yesterday morning
—unless relieved. This fact doubtless did
much to induce the government to give ere-
decce to unofficial accounts o! the surrender.
. Nothing is made public from McClellan
since his official di-patches of Sunday. Tnc
genera) feeling here consequent on disastrous
news from Harper’s Ferry and McClellan’s
silence, continues rather gloomy.
Our loss at Harper’s Feny is at least 4,000
men and a million dollars worth of stock.
LATEST.
Washington, Sept. 16,1562— 2 p. m.
Ocrtroops at Harper’s Ferry, after surrend
eiirgto the rebels were promptly paroled,
for ihe reason, as explained here, that onr
troops were pressing the rebels too hard to
permit them to take prisoners along with
them.
The paroled prisoners have already arrived
at Baltimore and Frederick. They state that
CoL Miles was killed while carrying a flag of
mice to surrender. Both of his legs were
trot away. Nearly 8,000 of our troops were
taken.
Baltimore, Sept. 16.— Passengers from
Motocacy report seeing paroled prisoners
from Harper’s Ferry, who report the surren
der ot Harper’s Ferry on Monday morning
altera most determined defense and the death
of Col. Miles wno was killed by a shell cui
tuig off one of his lags. According to reports
Miles evacuated Mar>land Heights on Satur
day evening, after exploding one of his heavy
guns and throwing others down the rocks.
The oilicers were allowed to go out with
their side arms and horses, and the men with
their personal effects, which indicated that
tbc surrender was conditional. Tne railroad
bridge and Potomac bridge were still stand
ing, and the rebels were reported to be evacu
ating Maryland Heights.
PniLAOELrniA.Sspt, 10.—A. special dispatch
to the Unlhtm from Harrisburg says that tele
graphic and railroad communication to Ha
gerstown was reopened last night, snowing
that that place had been totally abandoned by*
the rebels and occupied by onr troops. It is
rumored at Hagerstown that another battle is
going on this morning between SUarpsnurg
hod r.liddlcburg, but no particulars nave been
received.
Sharpsbnrg is near the Potomac, about ten
wilt s west ofMiddletown. It-is not unlikely
Umt McClellan is engaging tin rebels in that
neighborhood to-day and disputing their pass
age" of Hie river.
Washington*, Sept. 16.—The SUr of last
evening says;
At 9 km. to-diy the engagement at Burn
side's position bad not been renewed, lie was
then in undisputed possession of the advan
tageous crest of the mountain, from which he
drove the enemy the night before. The fi ring
that commenced at daybreak to-day was an
aiiack of the enemy ou Frank Un's corps, on
the road to Harper’s Ferry. Xo direct com
munication was bad with that corps at 9
o’clock this morning.
The telegraph operator at Point of Rocks
reports that Franklin was heavily engaged this
morning, some miles in front of him (Hie ope
rator )
The division or array corps that ycsterclay
morning occupied Hagerstown was not in
yesterday’s action, though it hastily retraced
its steps in order to be in the fight tu-diy.
Neither Sumner’s army corps nor Coach’s
divisions were in action yesterday, though
both are doubtless supporting Franklin to
day, as they were in position to do so yester
day evening.
The army corps of Fitz John Porter passed
through Frederick to-day at 8 a. m., and were
to have arrived ou the battle-Ueld at noon.
The rebels iu the fight say Beauregard was
exptcicdto join them to-day with an army
corp? of 40,000 strong. Wc have no idea that
any such expectations of theirs can be real
ized.
Burrslde’s position, won from the enemy
•n y< sb rday’s battle, commantU the road
from Hagnrstown to the position where
Frsiikliu is fighting, we believe to-d iy; hence
its great importance. Its loss is most dam
aging to the t-nc-my. •
Gkeencastle, 'Pa., Sept. 15.—A cavalry
force, which Itlr Harper’s Ferry last night at
S o’clock, arrived here to-dav at I o'clock,
numbering about 1,000. Gen. White, It seems,
w:is apprehensive of being surrounded at
Tlurpci’s Firry, and the cavalry obtained per
mission to cut their way out. After obtaining
a guide, they start*d and succeeded in making
tbclr way around the enemy without
discovered. In reaching the Williamsport
road, they discovered a train of fifty wagons,
wnlch they captured. It belonged to Gcnenl
Lougstrc«l’s ammunition train, which hid
just left Hagerstown after supplying that di
vision with ammunition, the wagons beln"*
still about half fud. Most of them proved to
be wagons taken from Pope’s army at Centre
ville. About seventy-five prisoners were cap
tured at the same time, some of them hiving
formerly livi dln this vicinity. Col. McClure
with otner officers had considerable trouble to
ketp the crowd from banging these double
dyed traitors on their wav to prison,
Capt. Pa’mer to-day proceeded to Higers
to-n, and found that the rebels badgone, and
I icam is now in pursuit of them wUa a Urge
force of cavalry and infantry,which j oined him
to-day.
The cavalry that came through state that
tbe troop? at Harper’s Fmy could holdout
till to-day,and, that If reinforcements came up
before noon, they would be safe.
A dispatch has reached here that McClclUn
defeated and routed Lougstreet and Hill yes
terday with great slaughter, and ihut the reb
els w» re flying iu every direction to get out of
Maryland.
Baltimous, Sept. 15—Midnight—The fol
lowing is from the -4»/icnctu<;
Fubpebics, Sept. 15—12 Midnight—News
'hat readies here from the front coming
through a variety of sources, Is all of a glori
ously encouraging character. Oar troops
have been driving the enemy ever since they
left Frederick, and yesterday fought them for
lour hours in a general engagement, defeated
them and sent them flying in rapid tetreat to
get out of Maryland.
■Washington, Sept, 16.—in officer slightly !
•wounded in the battle of yesterday, who ar
rived here late last night, represents that the
fight took place three or four miles west ot
Middletown, Frederick county, at the ‘‘oot of
the first mountain going west. The enemy
was strongly posted, hot our men, with the
most determined courage, drove them up the
mountain, through a strip of woods, corn
fields and open ground. The rebels made oc
casional stands d. hind walls and fences, but
were driven thence to the top of the moun
tain and over into the valley, when, it being
night, onr troops were called from farther
pursuit. Not one of oar men faltered.
I This point of contest was maintained by
I onr troops of the centre. Two colonel* were
among the rebel slain found in the field this
morning.

New Yoke, Sept. 15.—The following is an
account of the gallantry of two Ohio regi
ments :
By one brilliant charge over 200 prisoners
were captured. It appears that one ot the
North Carolina brigades had been badly cut
up by some Ohio regiments—the latter also
suffered severely—when, probably burning
with revenge, while tuelr foes were engaged
with other regiments, they silently crept xor
ward to a_ stone wail, on the other side of
which a skirmish was going on, and opened a
galling fire upon them. The 12-h and 13h
Ohio were ordered to charge them, and,
mounting the wall, for a few moments a des
perate tight took place, the 12th Ojio being
engaged with the 12rh North Carolina, and
the 23d Ohio engaged tbs 23d North Carolina.
The light soon terminated iu favor of the gal
lant Ohio regiments, the enemy scattering iu
great cotfmion. These regiments summed
ed and captured 130 rebels, who belonged to
tbel2th and 23d North Carolina, and2oth Vir
ginia. Garland, commanding these troops,
was instantly killed with a shell, which struck
him od-tbe head.

Endeavoring to ascertain the rebel strength
and position, about I’d o’clock Gen. Reno
was ordered tc ascend the mountain on the
left and make an attack on the enemy’s llauk.
Al o o’clock Gen. Reno’s troops got into
action. The battle in musketry lasted for
bait an hour, with terrible destruction, when
the enemy gave way, leaving our men iu pos
session of’that portion of the ridge. The
loss on both sides was considerable. We bid
not a general or field otllcer iajared at this
point, excepting Reno, who was killed by a
Mime ball passing through his body.
General Hooker, commanding General
McDowell’s corps and the Pennsylvania
reserves, ascended the mountains on
the right, for the purpose ot miking
an attack on the rebels’ left. He
tot bis troops into position, moved upon
the enemy" two hours before sundown.
Here, as on the other ridge of the mountain,
our troops were, successful, driving the enemy
before them with great slaughter. Tne rebels
here suffered more than at any other point of
the battlefield. .Gen. Hatch, commanding a
division under Gen. Hooker, was wouuded iu
the leg. Gibbons’ brigade, composed of the
2d, Cth and 7eh Wisconsin, and the 19t.1i Indi
ana, was ordered to move up the gorge of the
mountain. This division did not get into ac
tion. Fireball's battery starred after the ene

Virginia cavalry with a battery, acting as rear
guard. The Illinois cavalry charged through
the town and two miles out on the Htgars

Had our troops had two hours longer day
light, the greater portion of the rebel army
•would have been taken prisoners, as they were
surrounded on all oldes, the only mode of es
cape being a narrow dclilc in the mountain,
winch artillery would soon have made im
passable.
Among the rebel officers killed are Garland
of Leesburg and Col. Strong of the 19 :h Vir
ginia. The body of the latter was obtained
• o-d&y by a flag of truce.
At daylight this morning our worst fears
arc realized. The rebels, under cover of nteat,

THE FORCE OF THE ENEMY.
[From the Cincinnati Commercial, IG.]
We have information that we regard relia
ble as to the force of the enemy, which ad
vanced this side of Florence last week.
Twelve regiments of infantry marched
through Florence, with a squadron ot cavalry,
numbering something over 100, and twenty'
two puces of Jield artillery . Their regiments
would not average more than 550 effective
men each. The whole force was, therefore,
about 8,000. The men were way worn and
weather-beaten, and did not display much
spirit. They had a heavy baggrue train, com
posed chieliy of wagons, with mules and
horses taken at Richmond, and ot wagons
and horses impressed from the farmers of
Kentucky. The men were confident that
they were about to take Cincinnati. One of
ihcir generals, a thin-faced, keen-eyed man
nf.mea Reynolds, said that he could storm
our lines easily enough. He professed to
have no doubt of bis ability to do the job in
forty-live minutes. On the retreat there were
many stragglers. It is probable that the
enemy had more than the one squad of caval
ry sten by our informant. They obtained
near 100 recruits in Florence and the sur
rounding couhtry.

The London Dnily in reviewing the
