Buckhannon, Va., July 11.
Late intelligence from Gen. McClellan
to 2 o’clock, says he had commenced
erecting his batteries on the hill s;d- s,
when the rebels opened site, but without
damage. When the courier left Gen.h
Morris still held the rebels in check at
Laurel Hi!'*, awaiting orders to advance.
SkirmL-hing had been brisk and frequeut
for the past 24 hours. Three of the 7th
and 9th Indiana regiments were killed,
undone of the Ohio 14th, and seven
woqnded of the 3d regiment.
An occasional shell was sent into
camp, a mile and a half distant, to keep
them in position.
Cle\eland, Ohio, July 12.
A private d spath io Col. Stager, from
Western Virginia, says that Gen McClel

prisoners here taken, amongst whom
were several officers.
The enemy’s loss is severe—ours very
small.
N o officers were lost on our side.

Roaring Run, Va., July 12.
A battle was fought yesterday after
noon at Rich Mountain, two miles east
of this place, where the enemy numbeiing
about 2,000 under command of Colonel
Pegram were strongly cntrenehel.—
About 3 o’clock in the morning Gen.
Roscransjwith a portion of iho Blb, 10th,
and 13th Indiana, and the 19tb Ohio
Regiments left this place,and after a very
difficult march of seven or eight miler,
cutting a road through the woods, suc
ceeded in surrounding the enemy about
3 o’clock in the afternoon.
A desperAte fight immediately ensued,
lasting about r.n hour and a ha'f, result
ing the loss of CO of the enemy killed,
and a large muni er wounded. Many
prisoners were taken, some of the latter
are officers. They retreated precipitate
ly, leaving 5 wagons, and a large num
ber of horses, camp eqquipnge Jre. The
loss on our side was about 20 killed
and 40 wounded—among the latter is
Capt. Chris. Miller of the tenth Indiana
Regiment.
Washinton, July 15.
An official dispatch lias been received
at headquarters from Gen. McClellan,
from Huttonsville, Va., 15th, giving an
account of thv r< uting of the forces and
death of Gen. Garnett. This confirms
previous accounts. He says be has com
pletely anniblatcd (bo enemy in Western
Virginia. Our loss is but 13 killed and
about 40 wounded. The enemy’s loss b
200 killed and 1000 taken prisoners.—
We captured seven guns. A portion of
Garnett’s force retreated, but I look for
their copture by Gen. Hill, who is in hot
pursuit. It is said Garnett’s troops arc
the crack regiments of Eastern Virginia,
added by Georgians, Tennesseeans and
Carolinians. Our success is complete,
and I fit mly believe that secession is kill
ed in this section of the country.
Gkafton, Va., July 16.
A train arrived hero this morning
bringing the body of Gen. Garnett, late
commanderf»f the rebel forces in AVestern
Virgin a. The rebels were pursued
from Laurel Hill by Gen. Morris’ com
mand, consisting of the 14th Ohio and
7ili and 9th Indiana regiments. At
Carrick’s Ford, eight miles south of the
town of St. George, Gen. Garnett at
tempted to rally his forces, when a sharp
skirmish ensued, in whieh Garnett was
killed and twenty of bis men left dead on
the ground, besides many bodies being
carried oft. The rebels were completely
routed and scattered in all directions. 40
loaded wagons and all their horses and
camp equipage fell into our hands.—
Garnett’s remains will be embalmed and
placed at the disposal of his friends.
Two men were killed and two mortally
wounded of the Ohio 14th. No other

THE PRESCOTT JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, JULY 17, 1861.
REPORTS
—OF THE —
STATE DEPARTMENT'
SECRETARY OF WAR.
“ After alluding to the seizure of the
public property by the rebels, and the
tratorous conduct o f Twiggs, Secretary
Cameron justly praises the acts of An
derson and Slemmer. He states that,
while under the call of the President for
the militia in April, the Governors of
Delaware, Virginia, and Missouri peremp
torily refused to send their quotas, each
of these States have since furnished a
regiment, raised by patriotic citizens.—
The force now at the command of Gov
ernment is 310,000 men, and after the
discharge of the three months’ volunteers
there will be a force of 230,000 officers
and men. The increase in the regular
army consists of one regiment of cavalry,
one of artillery, and nine of infantry.—
The artillery contains twelve batteries, of
six pieces each.
Cnmeron recommends that the term
of enlistment in the new regiments shall
b ’ three years, and that, at the close of
the term, those who shall be honorably
discharged shall receive a bounty of one
hundred dollars. In making the selec
[ tion of offiers it was necessary to make
the appointments, from the regular ser
vice, by seniority or by selection. The
objection to the first method was, that
inefficient men might be pron oted to
places which ought to be filled by young
and vigorous officers. The objection of
the second was, that favoritism might pre
judice the claims of worthy officers. It
was therefore wise'y decided, under the
advice of the General in Chief, to appoint
one-half from the regular army and onc
half from civil life. Of the civilians ap
pointed, as regimental commanders, all
except one are cither graduates of West
Point or have served with distinction in
the field. Mr. Cameron asks the sanc
tion of Congress for these preliminary
steps in the augmentation of the regular
forces, and states that when at the close
of the wav a reduction of'.he present force
is necessary, a sufficient one should be
retained to protect nil the public proper
ty wherever it may be found.
Of the volunteer system he speaks
highly as a substitute for a standing army,
stating that facts now prove it reliable
and efficient in an emergency. The ar
dor with which men of every rank and
every nation have forward, and the vol
untary contributions both from individu
als nnd states, are alluded to The call
ing out of a large force be deems in
strict accordance with a wise economy,
and regards vigorous measures as a mer
ciful policy. The appropriation requir
ed, in addition to that already mndo for
the year ending, June 30, 1861, for the
force now in the field, is $135,296,397.
He recommendsan appropriation for the
reconstruction and equipment of railroads
and for the expense of maintaining and
operating them, and also for the con
struction of additional telegraph lines and
their appurtenances. He urges the im
portar.ee of enforcing the strictest disci
pline- when active army operations are
carried on in the rebellious states. He
recommends the organization of a mili
tary tribunal to take cognizance of crim
inal offenses and punish the guilty.. The
tribunal, however, is not to have juris
diction if the functions of the federal
courts are uninterrupted. In regard to
the subsistence of troops he urges the im
portance of more fresh meat and vegeta
bles, nnd recommends, for the better pro
tection of the men, water-proof caps and
blankets.
He notices the Sanitary Commission
and the organization of military hospit
als. The arms made at our national
manufactories compare, he says, most
favorably with the best made for foreign
governments, and ho recommends the
making of those arms we may require,
and which the national armories cannot
supply, by private manufacturers in
place of foreign ones. As the rifle can
non is so efficient, arrangements have
been made for rifling a large portion of
the guns now on hand. The presenting
of the White worth guns is noticed. Mr.
Cameron deems necessary a reorganiza
tion, upon a uniform basis, of the milita
ry of the country, and notices favorably
the efficient manner in which some of the
New England regin ents, now in service,
are equipped. He advises also the fur
ther distribution < f improved arms among
the militia. In al'ud ng to tl e di affec
ton among the officers of the army, he
traces its causes to defects in the system
of education at the academy at West
Point, and earnestly trusts that Congress
will exam'ne tborough’y the system of
education and discipline in that institution,
and provide, without delay, a remedy
for whatever defect it may find. As the
exigencies of t! e public service have great
ly increase 1 the labor of the War De
partment, he asks for a law authorizing
the- apfo’nt inent of an Assistant Secro
ary of Wnr ”
SECRETARY OF TREASURY.
The financial provision recommended
by the Secretaiy of the Trf usury is Three
Hundred and Twenty Millions. He be
lieves that $30,000,000 should be so ight
by taxation, to meet the ordinary de
mands of 1862, for which actual appro
priations have been made, amour ting to
$65,887,849 43, while interest, estimat
cd at $,9,000,000 and $5,000,000, to
ward the reduction and final extinguish
ment of the public debt, bring the figure
very near the Secretary’s estimate. He
proposes to mee this demand by a duty
of two and a half cents per pound laid on
brown sugar, of 3 cci*t per pound on
clayed sugar,of 4 cents per pound on 1< a**
and other refined sugars, of two and a
half cents per pound on the syrup of su
gar-cane, of 6 cents per pound on candy,
of 6 cents per gallon on molasses, and of
4 cents per gallon on sour molasses, and
it is also proposed that a duty of 5 cents
per pound be imposed on coffee, 15 cents
on black tea, and 20 cents on green
tea.
The collection of internal duties on still
and distilled liquors, ale and be. r, tobac
co, bank notes, spring carriages, silver
ware and jewelry, and on legacies, is rec
commended—although, it is suggested
that, is preferred by Congress, the plsn
of taxation of real and personal provertv
wonl-1 be successful in the same result.- -
The use of canfiscated property of the
rebels, together with a reduction, for the
time at least, of 10 per cent upon salar
ies and wages paid by the I ed< ral Gov
ernmcnt, are also adv’sed. Io raise the
$240,000,000 needed for the thorough
prosecution of the war, the Secretary
proposes a national loan not less than
$100,000,000, to be issued in the form
of Treasury notes, bearing a yearly in
terest of 7 3—lo per centum (an inter
est equal to one cent a day cn fifty dol
lars, and therefore very easy of calcula
tion,) and in sums of SSO, SIOO, SSOO,
SJ,OOO. nnd $5,000, books to be opened
at the Treasury Office in Washington,
and at various other offices throughout
the States, and sums subscribed to be
paid in cash.
In case the national loan is insufficient,
it is proposed that bonds, or certificates
of debt,* be issued to lenders in the coun
try, or in any foreign country, not ex
ceeding in the aggregate SIOO,OOO 000,
to be made redeemable at the pleasure
of the Government after a period not ex
ceeding thirty years, and bearing an in
terest not exceeding 7 per cent. To sup
ply the full amount required for the fis
cal year, it is recommended that provis
ion be made for the issue of Tieasury
notes for $lO or s®o each, payable one
year from date, to an amount not exceed
ing $50,000,000 —these notes bearing
interest at the rate of 3 65 100 per cent,
and exchangeable nt the will of the hold
er for Treasury notes with 7 3 10 per
cent interest on exchequer bills.
of navy.
The Secretary of the Navy asks Con
gress to sanction the extraordinary meas
ures which were necessarily taken to
meet the difficulties treachery had thrown
in the way of the Department. Pur
chases and contracts were made the au
thority for which was fond in the ex
igencies of the times. The naval force
in commission is increased to 82 vessels,
carryii g upwards of 1,100 guns, and a
complement of about 13,000 men, ex
clusive of officers and marines.
The Naval Academy, formerly at An
napolis, now removed to Newport, R. 1.,
is without its Authorized number of pu
pils, for one-third of the districts neglect
or refuse to be represented, and there is
no legal way of supplying this deficien
cy from other districts. It is suggested
that Congress provide for the deficit, and
that for a period, at least, the numbers
in the school should not be increased un
til there is a full complement of officers.
The Secretary recommends an officer
shall be appointed, to be known as the
director of ordnance, who shall,under the
Department, have the immediate super
vision of the manufacture, description,
ami supply, of ordnance for the Navy, in
all its details.
A change or modification of the law
regulating the navy ration is suggested,
bv which the vessels stationed along the
const may be regularly supplied with
nourishing food. An increase of the
number of Surgeons and Assistant Sur
geons is recommended; also, an in
crease of the Marine corps,with, perhaps,
an ent <e reorganization of the crops; al
so, the appointment of a proper and
competent board to enquire into the ex
pediency of iron-clad strainers or floating
bnrtpr’pe*. nica nn increase of the cleiical
force of the department, together with
the appointment of an Assistant Secretary
of the navy.

ury to borrow, within two months of the

Messrs. J. N. Harris & Co.—Gentlemen :
Your agent, Mr. A. F. Barnes, whilst passing
through our place, casually heard of a most ef
fectual cure of an obstinate case of salt rheum
in a member of my family, having politely
requested the facts of the case, I most cheer
fully comply with his request.
The subject of this remarkable cure is my
son, and was attacked *Pith salt rheum when
about a year and a half old. I applied from
time to time for aid to the most efficient phy
sicians in the eastern states, one of whom had
traveled in Europe ; but whilst he would at
times receive some temporarp relief, still the
disease remained, and would br«ak out occa
sionally, with the most virulent type, until he
rrrived at the age of tourteen years, when ray
eye providentially rested upon the advertise
ment of Dr. Weaver’s Canker and Salt Rheum
Syrup and Cerete. lat ouce procured one
bottle, which on trial so encouraged me. that
I procured two more, together with the Cer
ate, and the result is that my son now is and
has been effectually cured of that wretched
disease for the last three and a half years.
Respectfully yours. ALFRED PARKER.

' The Pain Killer is by universal consent al
-1 lowed to have won for itself a reputation un-
I surpassed in the history of medi :al prepara
tions. Its instantaneous effect in the entire
eradication and extinction of Pain, in all its
various forms incidental to tbqhuman family,
and the unsolicited written and verbal testi
mony of the masses in its favor, have been and
are its own best advertisement.
REV. W. B. JACOBS :
Newark, N. J„ June 6,1860.
Messrs Perry Davis <t Son Gantlemen
Allow me, unsolicited, to send you a word of
commendation for your Pain Killer. I have
used it in my family these several years, and
fonnd it all it claims to be. For Rheumatism,
Coughs Colds Bures. Cholera tendencies and
difficulties, as well as diseases generally that
prevail in families, I regard the Pain Killer as
beyond all price, and as efficacious beyond
any medicine within my knowledge. We
keep it as our chief family medicine, and find
its use in ordinary cases worth more than any
doctor. The testimony of others among my
acquaintances and friends is equaffy favora
able. Many clergymen have spoken of it in
the highest terras as a family medicine. Mis
sionaries in repeated instances have said to me
in person and in their letters, that the Pain
Killer was by far the best medicine used in
heathen lands, and they use it for themselves
and families, and administer it to others
around them. Thus ranch lam inclined to
say as an act of jnstice to yourselves; and as a
benefit to others. You are at liberty to use
this testimonial, if of any service.
Rev, W. B. JACOBS,
Late Editor Christian Chronicle.
