MONDAY, AUGUST 11, 1862.
TH”, war.
General Pope and stuff, so we learn by telegraph,
have established their headquarters at Culpeper
Court House, on the Orange and Alexandria Rail-'
road. Ob the 6th inst. a reoonnpissanoe was made
to Madison Court House, a village about ten mites
southwest of that point, by our cavalry, who re
ported all quiet.' No traces of the irrepressible
“ Stonewall "were visible; but it was stated, by
his admirers, that he had gone to Lib rty Mills,
where a force of 3.000 rebels had collected to swell
his ranks, On Friday Gat our pickets, having
been advanced bojoud Madison, carno in col
lision wifti a body of rebel cavalry, about eight
aniles south of that plaoe, at the village or
Wolftaln, on the Sfannardsvillo road. As a
necessary oonsequonoe of this skirmish the enemy
was driven aoioss the Rapidan with loss. Fur this
little victory wo are indebted to Col. Price, whoso
irogiment was recruited in Philadelphia. By yes
terday's ttlegraphio advioes from Washington, we
have the intelligence that a battle has since taken
place, as.we were led to anticipate from the repert
thatJaokSon had crossed the Rapidan. 'No par
ticulars of the contest have reached-usyet. We
await them with considerable anxiety, but have no
apprehensions that aught but success has crowned
our arms. -
gilT is estimated that the arm; will be increased lo
at least one million of men, fully-armed and
equipped, and read , for a fall oatnpaign, by m ana
of a draft. Ins ver 1 of the States tha me sun
will'rot bars o In r sorted so, and, for the
credit of our people, wo rejoici to reoord the
f,ot. The m re annum o ment of the necessity
of drafting has opened the eyes of the nation
to the mag itnde of the struggle, md earned a
.conviction to every honest mind that the time
has come tor put forth every energy, if wo would
retrieve the past and save the U ion. Ma y who
believed that th > r bullion w s in its d elite
have learhod, from this new appeal to th:ir patriot
ism, that it was,iu reali y, gath ring strong h from
the pasaiveness of the North. Now that the Go
vernment appreciates the danger, and tacitly ad
mits its imminence, they will come forward and
help_ayort.tt.Kitb,ouic.W“j4\rpE!fipraTtF6~ttfouscd7 we
have no sluggard patriots, and few who are willing
to acknowledge cowardice. What strengthens tha
popular determination to avoid as fur as possible
the disgrace of a draft, is the universal hope
and oonviotion that another call for troops will
be unnecessary. With a million of. effective
men, in the field, a prolongation of the war by
, the rebels would be a physical and arith
metical impossibility. One million of men on pa
per is easily expressed : to arm, equip, and feed
such a host has never yet been essayed by a civi
lized people. An exchange says: . ' *
*5 To understand the immensity of suoh a force,
it would be necessary to see them drawn up in ar
ray, A line marching in single file, allowing two
feet for each soldier, would stretch nearly three
hundred and eighty miles, and marohing at the
rate of thirty, miles per day, would occupy noarly
two weeks in passing a given point; marohing m
sections of four, with the necessary room for bag
gage trains and cavalry, at the rate of thirty miles
per day, they would extend one hundred and fifty
miles.’’, ‘
■When Mr. Wendell Phillips' admitted his
devotion to the Union some months jgo, many
rejoiced that such a splendid intellect hal
been added to the list of our national defend
ers.; He had been a representative man. Ue
belonged to a class which, though small, was
active, persis eut, gifdU, and entitled to re
spect. His followers were wedded to an idea.
It was imp! acdcable, ephemeral, and possessed
neither substance nor power, but it had b sen
a source of imtation and agitation. When
the war burst upon ns in uncontrollable fury, t
we had but one anxiety, and that was the
union of every sect, opinion, or prejudice in
defence of the Union. The question was not
what men had believed or w.-th whom had
they acted, but how did they believe and act in
the present crisis ? Every man—the Ab ili
tionist, the Republican, the Conservative, the
Dougias Dtmocrat, the Breckinridge Demo
crjd—was welcome to the Union cause. We
asked no question but the question of loyalty,
and accepted uo test but the test of allegiance.
We Lad hoped that Mr. Phillips, wbh his
rare, powers as_an orator, and' his influence
with the eccentric clacs that believed in him,
would have been useful to the country. In
this hope we have been sadly disappointed;
jWeblell Phillips is a traitor in his soul.
He differs trom Jefpebson Davis in this only,
that Davis has drawn the sword, while Phil
lips is effective without it. We can conceive
of no doctrines more hoiribly dangerous than
those contained in his recent speeches. There
is a fury and a recklessness in his invectives
which almoßt amounts to a mania. He de
nounces everybody, and believes in no one.
Mr. Lincoln is “a turtle,” “a first-rate
second-rate man.” General McClellan is
incompetent, and takes an hear to decide a
question and say no. “ Let this Union be
dissolved, in God’s name,” he says in a burst
ef raving rhetoric, “ and the corner-stone of
a new one be laid, on which shall be engraven
forever, ‘Equality in a political sense for
every;man who ia-born in ihe world. 5 Cease
believing in the Cabinet. There is nothing
there for you. Piay God to awaken your
President to a sense of his position and the
interests at stake.” President Lincoln,
through coward fear of the Border States,
keepß McClellan in the position he holds.
But the day will come—and it is that that
hurts ns al:—when Lincoln will confess he,
never believed in McClellan.” “I do not
say that McClellan is a traitor ; but I do say,
that so far he could not have done more to
help traitors than be has done.” Language
like this can find no parallel in the columns of
the Richmond Enquirer. It serves every
jmrposo that the most malignant enemy of’the
Republic could desire. It servos to destroy
public confidence, to weaken onr faith in our
•constituted authorities, to despair, and become ■
sick,.weary, and disheartened.
We have no objection to theso wild and ex
treme denunciations in times of peace. They
become subjects of jestiug and merriment, and
Bare no other purpose than to create a smile
Of pity or a sneer of contempt. Bat now,
when hearts are lacerated by daily bulletins
from ' bloody fields of battle, and the public
mind is sensitive on the utterance of every
public man, and extremely sensitive in rela
tion to our generals and Btatesmen,.are these
fierce falsehoods to be permitted ? There is
hot a .traitor in the land who will not exalt
over these declarations. In Richmond, they
will be reed with joy; in unfriendly London,
they will be greeted with exaltation and
mockery. “ What strength, what dignity has
this Republic of America, which can permit
traitors in Boston to assail it from the forum;
while traitors in Richmond assail' it from the
battle-field? It sends men to Port Warren
for attacking the Government and disowning
the oath of allegiance, and yet it permits men
in Boston—men of' smooth speech and choice
words and eloquent phrases—to glory in the
fact that they disdained to owe allegiance to the
country of their birth, and at the same time
sought to divide and destroy it.” These are
the words which these speeches of Wendell
Phillips will excite, and we are very much
afraid they will bo truly spoken.
That man is a traitor who refuses to sustain
the Government j to defend it against its ene
mies | to respect its constituted authorities j to
.submit to its laws; to give allegiance to its
'Constitution. That man is a traitor who, in
times of danger/permits any sentiment or pre
judice to weaken his love, for the Union, or
give comfort and consolation to the enemy.
’That man is a traitor who finds cause for ex
altation in our national discomfiture or mis
fortune. Mr. Piin,Hi. s has done these things
.and more. “ Davis is perfectly satisfied with
his successes. They are greater than he an
ticipated—far greater; and, if he can possibly
float upon them and a few more, England will,
as she ought to, recognize tho Southern Con-
Can anything be more treasona
ble than this ? Wo have yet to see the uttor
•ance of any traitor, Secessionist or Breckin
ridge Democrat, as full of malignity; and
there Is no r« ason in the world why he should
not meet with the treatment which loyal men
everywhere bestow upon the traitor, the Se
cessionist, or the Breckinridge Democrat.
No eloquence—no number of personal gifts
no sincerity or honesty of purpose can permit
the unrebuked utterance of such sentiments as
these. Mr. Phillips may be an honest man,
but wo say oi him as he says of Mr. Lincoln,
“ He may be honest, but who cares whether
he is honest or not ? What has his honesty to
do with lhe matter?” He is an enemy—a
political nuisance—a traitor, and a pernicious
man. He should be abated. If itcae bodoua
by at-y social or political influence, we shaH
be tati-fii d ; but if not, there is a short and
easy road from his home near Boston to a
casemate in Fort Warren.
Tub course of this journal during the last
five years has been denounced with consist
ent bi teiness by the newspapers aud p tli
ticians ibat sustained the treachery ot the Last
Administration, and now oppose the Admiuis
tiat on of President Lincoln. Such a fact is
more suggestive than a volume ot argument.
It vindicates onr own position, while it esta
blishes the incurable disloyalty of our assail
ants. .The same papers aud politicians .that
attacked The Press for its opposition to the
Lecompfon Constitution and the English bill,
for its exposure of the .corruptions of Floyd,
Touchy, aid Cobb, and for Its riaunch support
of the straight Douglas Elecioral Ticket, are
even more violent at this hour in their as
saults upon The Press for its views on the
war. Comment is unnecessary.
LETTER FROM “ OCCASIONAL.”
Washington, August 10,1802.
The despoilers of Liberty and the savages
of slavery arc infuriated at the ord-rs of Gen.
Pope, and announce their determination to re
taliate by the imprisonment of all the officers
of his division who may fall into their hands.
Of course, this means their summary and mer
ciless execution. Davis ''proclaims this pur
pose in a letter of characteristic falsehood and
hypocrisy. His appeal to the “ voice of a
common humanity” and to “ the recognized
rules of war,” is like the appeal of Satan to
the revolting bests against the authority
of God Almighty. Never, in any age,
has a reckless rebellion against, a good
Government been so marked by crime and
blood. Not to speak of the perjury and re
pudiation wbicß disgraced its commencement,
the progress of the rebellion has been charac
terized by atrocities such as should awaken the
horror of all the races of moo. The massacre
of Ellsworth was succeeded by the canoniza
tion of his assassin.; and a few days after Davis
wrote his threatening message, a distinguished
Union General,
”fAwffMS~<sf”’£Eo’ traitors in Alabama. The
horrid brutalities of the Secession murder
ers after the battle of Manassas, and the
equally monstrous preparations after the
evacuation of Yorktown, by which unsus
pecting men were to be hurled into eternity
by concealed mines and bombs, have never
been surpassed by the excesses of the
heathens and savages of the wilderness.
Every kind of cruelty, save cannibalism,
has been resorted to by the officers and
privates of the rebel army. Our wounded
have been hacked .and butchered, by
their surgeons—our dead mutilated and in
sulted—our prisoners starved, and sometimes
killed by the sentinels—our females, while at
tending upon the r husbands in the noisome
jails of Richmond, made objects of ribaldry
and scorn—and our loyal friends in the South
confined and frequently executed without a
hearing. To this inconceivable ; record, the
Federal Government has responded by con
ducting the war with humanity and digDity;
by protecting the property of the traitors, by
paying for'wbat our troops have used, and by
extending to rebel prisoners the most gene
rous treatment. At last, and only when it
became necessary to save our soldiers' from
suffering, and to checkmate the intrigues
of the very people that have been protected
by their arms, that Government has resolved
to adopt another policy, and one not onlyjusti
fied by the urgent necessity of the case, but
by tho rules of war among civilized nations.
The answer is- the proclamation of retaliation
-by Jefferson Davis. Fortunately, there is
scarcely any crime in the calendar that has :
not already been resorted to by the rebels.
They cannot surpass their early and recent ca
pacity. They may indeed execute our officers,
but tins will only add new zeal and fire to our
rank and file, and long before they have re
peated the bloody experiment they will tire
of a system which will react in one wide and
sweeping revenge. Every life sacrificed by
Davis will add new legions to our army, and
every victim to his insatiable fury will be a
new witness of his appalling villainy, and a
hew reason for the awful punishment of him
self and his associates.
Regarding this pronunciamiento ot Davis in
the light of his treatment of the Southern
people, alike those who follow and those who
oppose his example, it assumes an aspect of
peculiar turpitude. He has plundered and
impoverished them wiih indiscriminate despo
tism. He has confiscated and sequestered
millions of property. Bis hordes have been
subsisted upon the plantations of the Union
leaders who pine in prisons, or fly for their
lives to the free States. ; It did not need his
Congress to pass laws to empower him in this
hellish work. He made the laws for himself,
aid enforced them. It was not necessary to
give him (be authority to despoil the farms of
Andrew Johnson—to use and exhaust..;the
means of Justice Catron—to makeWYH. Polk
a beggar—to outlaw; and outrage W. G.
Brovnlow—to throw John M. Batts and thou
sands like him into pestiferous dungeons. He
decreed that these things should be, and they
were. And when the Federal Government
refuses any longer to project its own foes, and
to help and harbor the basest spies—-when it
directs that there shall be no more toleration
of men who would take onr soldiers’ money
and their lives at the same time—we hear
from Davis a howl that is only an echo of that
which arose from the infernal regions when
the fallen angels fill from their h'gh estafe
and were lost forever. Occasional.
FROM WASHINGTON.
Special Despatches to “The Press.”
Washington, Aug. 10, 1862.
A Fight in the Shenandoah Valley.
It would appear from ourcorrespendent’s private
despatch that there has been a fight in the Valley
of Shenandoah. His message could not be tele
graphed, not Tsaving been approved by General
Pops.
War Gazette,
The following' order has been issuod from the
headquarters of the military district of Washington:
All soldiers mow employed as nurses, cooks, at-,
tendants, and in, other chpacities, in the different
hospitals, and who are able to join their regiments,
will be relieved, from such duty mid sent to their
regiments. . * .. .
Convalescents will be selected for Buch duty, and
no others, and these convalescents will be relieved
as soon as they have sufficiently recovered' to be fit
for active duty.
The Recent Order to Prevent the Evasion
of Military Duty.-
The recent order of the Seoretary of War is,Re
signed to operate on two classes of person9,Viz i
those who contemplate leaving the United States
for the purpose of evading their military-duty, and
those who leave their own State or place of resi
dence, and go into olher States for the same pur
pose. The object is te compel every citizen of the
United States, subject to military duty, to bear his
share in supporting the Government. Instructions
have been prepared, and will be issued on Monday
to military commandants, marshals, and police
officers, respecting the mode of ' executing the
orders, so.as to interfere as little as possible with
individual pursuits and business, and limit the ope
rations of the order to cases of evasion.
Washington Items.
In special orders, July 13th, from , Adjutant
General’s office, Major J. H. RiohAbdsox was dis
missed from the service by direction of the Presi
dent. This was published in some of the newspa
pers, but others in copying tho statement made it
appear that Major General Bichakdsox was dis
missed. There is an officer, Israel S. Richabd
sos, who won the commission by gallantry in the
field, and it is but just that he should be thus re
lieved from the unfavorable position in which an
error of the press has placed him.
Wm. H. Mitchell, recently arrested by the
Provost Marshal for publishing a letter in the
Lawrence (Mass;) American, reflecting on the
colonel and major of the 13th Massachusetts, has
been unconditionally released.
An officer, writing from Harrison’s Landing, says
that while mass . meetings are being held from one
end of the obuntry to the other, all saying “go,”
but comparatively few saying “oome,”the rebels
are quietly marching regiment after regiment to
the support of those who are glorying in their
strength. What we want now is men—we want them
to-day.
Rumored Fighting at Qordonsville.
A private despatch from Woodviile, yesterday,

A battle was fought yesterday between General

General Bayard, of General McDowell's corp 3,
with.bis cavalry brigade, had been engaged before

tirday from the Wei Department, containing a requisi
tion for militia for tho full quota of the State under the
two recent calls, each for 300,000 men. The full quota
of this State under these callß will be 92,841 men, lew the
number of voluoteeiß tarnished by the 16th inst, under
the call of the 7th of July above mentioned. . Pennsyl

The rules and regulations to govern the draft will pro

Great Success of uie Experiment
When a country has reached a condition as critical
as is tie present status of onr own land, it bus a right to
tax every reaorree of its citizens, and to expect not only
a generous material support—secured, if need be, by
self-denial •or even sutlericg—bur a prompt offering of
every intellectual product that seems lik.-ly to advauca
the general weal; and he fa recreant to every tmpul • of
manbood'and of patiioii-m who fails to 'find anflicient
emuiua'int for'inch labor in the labor itself; it is eneu.h
to throw all that we hove and are at the feet of the
country and cry, “ Take it and use it; take in and use :
ns; all that we have we give; we are happy in the giv
ing-” But ample though this be to eatisfy every loyal
ambition, it is no little, additional encouragement to be
able to recogn-ze some actual service rendered by our
mite of contribution. IVtha country deign to n-e us,
w<H; brit if from such use a real advantage accrue, one
pleesuie ie belgbiened by the consciousnesa not only o.
having served, bur of having served well.
In-reference to these points, no-reader of the Prest
will deny that its course lies been consist, nt from the
smrl. It has Dover indulged in flippant flings at com
manding c fHcers. In tirades against their operations, or
In supet cilious criticisms of tbetr plans; while in rospect
to the political—inseparable from the military—factor of
this war, it has contented itself with an unswerving sup
port of the Administration and of all the officers who
there‘and carry forward its purposes. This path,
masked out in the beginning, has been adhered ro
throughout; the only latitude we have'granted our
selves being a significant' representation of growing po
litical ideas, or a suggestldn in the improvement of some
military detail that might fairly come before the judg
ment of civilians. . Such-a suggestion wo made a week
since, and now record with pride Its adoption, and its
succoesinl adoption, by ttte Government. It is nothing
as a personal matter; it is of no con-eeuonce from what
eoorce it emanated; we are proud only of having been
of guruine nso in paving much suffering to those brave
dtfet dtrs of our flag who have sacrificed their health to
the holy cause.
It win be remembered that the boats laden with sick
and wounded soldiers have been in the. habit of dis
charging at Yine-atreet wharf their freight of suffering
humanity, to be taken thence to the various hospitals by
omnibus and ambulance. It was suggested in these
columns that 'every purpose, seeking the relief of these
men, could be better served by makleg a landing some
where on tbe.Schnylkill, on the other Bide of Gray’s Ferry
Bridge, if the draw coaid be passed; but on thii side, if
the draw should prove to boa barrier to further ingress.
We bad satisfied ourselves byminute infiuiry that toe
public did not give fair credit to the navigability of onr
little Schuylkill; that even heavy vessels conld make a
landing on its banks, comparatively finite near the great
YTest Philadelphia hospital, and we proposed theattemoe,
though wiseacres'shook their heads in soorn at the bare
idea. „
: Yesterday tho.frial came. Four of the largest steam,
boats in tbe Government service arrived at Vine-street
wbarf,ezpecting to nske there theirnsua!unloading.
But scarcely wore their lines fas’, when orders came to
drop again down the river and proceed up the icnuyl
kill. Gi eat was the consternation, of the officers, the
men, aid the crowd assembled. The captains looked
doubtful; the pilots looked decidedly .certain—-but
of tho unhappy luck awaiting their veats; tbe'police
men looked ratter than e er, ae ’they puffed themselves
out with prophecies of failure; the expectant friends
locked blue, and tho attendant women—God blese their
self-sacrificing boarle!—looked as if it were an inscruta
ble Providence that prompted the me Meat Depart® on' to
snatch such charitable opportunities out of their loving
grasps. lint the word i wore peremptory a man ia a
blue blouse brought them—and slowly the mighty boats
swung ont inro the stream.
Bo civilians admittt d, of course. Ths blue blouse was
on board in virtue of its complexion, but a Market street
sack must not thrust its brown plebian fa:e into such
company. A wild appeal to the blouse; a response,
kindly but doubtful; a cor sulfation of magnates; a plea
rfa courteous French lieutenant in oehalf of the sack;
jesfienlatione, signals, heard words, a hnrried oars
man, a lost bat—and wewere aboard. .
It was a goodly company that sat down to dinner on
the Louisiana. There was the keen-eyed, gray haired
Yankee director Lr. Mcßner, with no unnecessary
flourish, self-possessed, a slight shade of omruaad re
lieving the affability and kind-heartedness that lay un
derneath. There was Dr. J. H. Case, the first assistant,
prompt in every exigency, inor out of the line of his du
ties, with a cheerful word mixed with every dose for the
sufferers, but a rapid reprimand for the semblance of an
order neglected. There was Robert B. Corson, the in
defatigable military agent for several States, picking out
the men lucky enough to fall within his c are, and pef
forndng those thousand little offices or alleviation and
kindness which the oiffinsry medical routine cannot, of
course, in the throng or its Urger obligations, see to. He
may be responsible to Governors for reports, etc, but
the multitudinous gratuitous charities which this unas
suming but tireless worker beetows upon his charges are
reported to his owu heat t alone Thore was— *
Bat the Schny.kitl 1 The many donbts .as we rounded

the .news-reporter, whose best hopes were staked on tbe
success of the experiment. “We could never got round
thoße sharp bends,” from the doctor. “ Yes, we could,’’
fiom the same importunate scion of public curioßity,
“ The draw was impassable,’ spake theassietant. “ Not
a bit of it,” replied tbs obstinate venturer. And so wo
gralually sailed, flinging away our misgivings as one by
ope the dubious places wtre paiaod. The banks began
to be lintd by gaping crowds. Little boats scudded
away from tbo novel spectacle. The stream narrowed.
Still the grand procesaion moved on—four of ,he most
magnificent boats of the world majestically steaming, in
line, up Ibo crock. d little river heretofoie given over to
