OF THE CITY OF PHILADELPHIA, - CITIZENS OF PEILADEZ.PHIA. : At a late hour to night the Governor of. Pennsylvania has addressed to me the following despatch : We have reliable information this evening that the rebel generals have moved their entire army from Frederick to the Cumberland' Valley, and their destination la /WE' Harrisburg and Philadel phia. We need ever; svailgible man immediately. Stir up your population to•night. Form them into companies, and send us twenty thousand (20,000) men to-morrow. No time can be lost in magsing a force along the Susquehanna to defend the Scate and your city. Aroute every man poiiible and send him here." Let the response to this urgent call be prompt and effective. I hereby ,request that all able bodied citizens shah assemb e at 10 &dock on • Friday morniap . at . the preobact houses of their respective election districts, in readiness to obey the summons to immediate service: ALEXANDER. HENRY, Mayor of the City of Philadelphia Office of the Mayor of the City of Phila- delphia, The members of the Select and Pommon Conn oils are * hereby notified to assemble at their respec tive Chatubera; TO BAY (Friday) NOON. ALEXANDER 'HE +PY, - : Mayor, of Pliil;idstlphia TEE.WAR Tan advance of the rebel army from Frederick to TiagerstoWn, where it had taken up its position, by the latest accounts, would seem to explode the theory that Baltimore or Washington had been aimed at as points of attack. Perhaps the enemy feared to risk battle with out forces which were arrayed in front before him, Doubtless he. saw that with numbers so nearly equal, his aflame of a ,decided vie tory ware anything but encouraging, and that anything but a decisive victory would be a most deeisive discoinfiture , if not fatal to his darling schemes, on the very threshold of their develop meat. But, whatever his reasons, he has , turned his gaze from the Federal capital, and is now marching for the capital ,of our State. He marches, not with his army swelled to twice its numbers r as he bad confidently expect ed, but disappointed, demeraltzed, and baffled. Re is marching headlong into danger, of which he now can have but small conceolon, and each mile of his advance finds him weaker, from the neces sity of keeping open his communication with the, main army, now said to be at Leesburg. Hagerstown Is less than ten miles from our Southern border. Why does he hesitate to cross? He knows too well that our people have not b ten idle in the meanwhile. He knows that the experi ment is one which, if it fails, roust Shatter the last hope of the rebellion ; and he fears that he may be overwhelmed and utterly crushed by the mere preponderance of numbers He cannot call masked batteries to his aid in the struggle whieh his despe ration compels Whim to invoke ; nor can his most skilful generalship avail, when every avenue of escape has been closed by out solid legions. These truths press home upon his shrewd convic tions, and so perplex his judgment, that he has determined to cut the gordian knot by risking all on one mad enterprise. He cannot turn back ward now. Let him come forward, therefore, to Ohamberaburg, or Harrisburg, if he will ; bat let him first turn upon his heel, and with a parting glance, bid his last good-bye to the sacred sod of Virginia. Our friends in Cineinpati are still preparing to meet the foe, and it is not at all improbable that a battle may yet be fought for the possession of the Queen City of the West. It is gratifying to know, however, that every preparation has been made to resist any attack that may be made upon that city, and that no fears can be entertained for its safety. The whole rebel scheme of invading the loyal States is in fact proVing a grand failure. Ohio is amply able to defend her soil, Pennsylvania is gathering and arming her freemen by tens of thou sands to hurl back the rebel hordes, Maryland re mains steadfast'and loyal to the Oaten, and Ken tucky, though overrun by the rebel Strinitre, is atut undismayed, unfaltering in her devotion to the cause and as earnest in its support and advecaey as ever. The rebels, no doubt, have invaded Kenticky for the twofold purpose of making a diversion in favor of the rebel army in Virginia and of sapp - ying themselves generally with men and other neces saries. But our new levy has enabled us to furnish the loyal army in Virginia with all the reinforce ments it needs or can manage, and at the same time to overmatch any rebel force that can be thrown into Kentucky, so that invasion of that State will make no sensible diversion whatever in favor of the rebel army in Virginia. THE NEWS Nzw likvzx hks raised her quota of 662 men without a draft. Wednesday, o ther last day, the money was poured out like - water by the citizens ao reach this patriotic and honorable result. Five over the requisite number were secured, and hand some private bounties made to all. GENERAL DOBLADO, one of the warmest support ers and defenders of Juarez, has resigned his seat in the Mexican Oebinet—as we learn by the arrival of the Ooltimbia, at New York—and, together with Oomonfort, it is, whispered, is about to inaugurate still another revolution. in. the North, and declare the States south of the, i tTrixted Statesan'iiale pendent Republic. A numnEn of rebel guerillas made their appear atm at the mouth of Salt river, on the Ohio, on Sunday list, and then disappeared. The object of the raid was, no doubt, to capture a number of store boats that bad been lying there for some time, but they had been removed before tip rebels made their appearance. Two GlrfrflOATS have been ordered to ply between Louisville and the mouth of the Wabash river, to keep the river clear of rebels. Two other gun boats will be'assigned to the same service shortly. IN our local columns will be found full details of local military moveinents, which have begun once more to assnine Considerable briskness: The call for fifty thousand men meets with general favor, and will be promptly responded4e. WE devote much of our apace—but not more than the serious importance of the subject : war rants—to the threatened invasion of our Common wealth. The excitement in the border counties, and, indeed, in Harrisburg, Lancaster, and other interior cities, is intense, though the people gene rally are not apprehensive. The Call to Anne. The proceedings in Councils yesterday, the message of the Mayor to that body, and the proclamation of the Governor, as printed this morning, will remind the people of Philadel phia that the hour has at last come for the performance of the noblest duty that can devolve upon an American citizen. The presence of a large rebel army within a morning's ride of our_southar,i..--1---risa nat.,...ay-cailirea great apprehension among the people. While every strategical reason might be adduced in opposition to the idea that the enemy contemplated an invasion of Pennsylvania, it is enough for us to know that his army is composed of desperate men, commanded by desperate , generals, and embarked in a desperate cause. Tf is enough for us to know that • the army is within striking distance of Pennsylvania's soil, within sight of free homes, and oppressing a loyal people. The proclamation of his Excellency the Go vernor, and the response of his Honor the Mayor, can leave no doubt in the rabid of every tiue citizen as to the duty that devolves upon him. This day will be a play of preparation in every part of Pennsyl vania. Twenty thousand men are lammed front Philadeiphia to ckfend the Busguehanna. - Fh; must be famished at once; and the llfayo r Jrequests that every citizen should assemble d tt e'en o'clock this ' morning, at his precinct home, and proceed to the place of genera/ rendezvous. We must prepare for the field of bittle. We can no longer • close our eyes to' the fact that war, grim-visaged and terrible, i s fast pressing upon us. Thus far it has been nothing more than a mere campaign in Virginia, a bloody battle on the Penin sula or the complicated movements of great 4rmies in the distant West, Wow has SEPTEMBER ii, 1852 SEPT - EMBER U., 1862 been to us the going forth of thousands of stalwart men in the hey-day of life and happi ness; the coming home of thousands ; of sick and wounded, emaciated by Jong *Suf fering, and covered with 'honorable We have been away from the real scenes. We have witnessed none of their hor rors. We have lived our busy round of life—irs pleasures ; its sorrows, its gayeties, and charms—as though peace reigned over the land, • and: 'the people were at rest. By a dispensation of Providence, however, our armies have been prevented from ac complishing the task assigned them, and a rebel army, numbered by tens of thousands, has crossed into a loyal State, and is now on the threshold of free territory.' What that army will do, no one can tell. What it may do, his Excellency the Governor is endea voring to prevent. What can we say in a time like this, when words are meaningless, and our exhortation can be little more than sound and fury, siget: fytng nothing? The danger that hangs over us. ranst speak for us. The * anticipation of rapine arid desolation, the fear. that civil liberty may beswainped in 'this awful fined— all admonish us to respond to this great call. Leltvery man who can bear a musket assem ble to-day at the designated rendezvous, at,d hold himself ready to march. Whe ther old or young, rich or poor, if he has nerve, and sinew, and stout limbs, let him fall into line. Pennsylvania must • defend herself from the invader. We have men 'enough in our valleys and fields, in our streets and. workshops; to roll back the haughty enemy into the Potomac. Let there be a general and instantaneous rising to artns. Let us feel the enthusiastic spirit ot other days, and,:remembering that - we have a cause as precious as that which animated our fathers, endeaVor to imitate their glorious 'example. • Citizens of Philadelphia! Let this be a prondMoment in your history ! The Repub lic is in danger; your State is about te be in. waded; your country calls upon 'you for as vsistance. We know that you will do your duty, Lke freemen ! The Duty of the Flour. It is of vital consequence to the people of Pennsylvania, and particularly of Philwiel phia, that they should have a correct Under: standing of the dangers of their preient posi tion, and of the duties which now devolve upon their patriotitm. Unless they fully ap preciate the magnitude of the peril waich confronts them, their efforts to repel it must necessarily be made at random, and success, which might be a probability, becomes a mere possible contingency. They surely will not incur this risk which may prove fatal;:they surely are intelligent, and can understand how, in a certain critical juncture, apathy is treason, and supineness the most despicable cowardice. 'As they would avoid either stigma, and main tain the honor of their Commonwealth unsul lied, let them arouse and hasten to the field at once. Let every inch of Pennsylvania's soil be as sacred in their regard as the soil of lade perdence Square—to be guarded just as jealously from the pollution of invasion's tread—to be hallowed, if the need be, by memo ries just as thrilling, and a devotion to the. common good, as sslf.samificing and complete as any that our history ever has produced. This is the solemn duty of the hoar, which may not be evaded, nor postponed till a more convenient season. Con they not instinctively perceive that promptness is one-half the battle, and that an hour devoted to the defence of their homes to-day, will be worth infinitely more than ihe; devotion of ten thousand men herdafter? neir only hope of safety lies in- the present hour; the work of the past has been of no avail. The Governor of the State has called on them for fifty thousand men—cannot thrice fifty thousand step:forward in response ? If they can, There will be work enough for them to do. If' they repulse the invader, • they,zill do but balf their duty, and must constantly be under arms, and on the alert, to prevent his return. They have not only to detend their homes, nor only to prevent the flag of treason from floating over Pennsylvania so' 1. They must capture or annihilate The foe. „His teme rity must be visited with a swift and terrible retribution. The reverses of the past, the honor of our ; Union, and the memories of our. slaughtered blythren t must _be_aveneed. hour - to - retriev - e — Ord errors is upon us. Let us, met its responsibilities like men. Base Money Imitating the historical example of JAMES the Second, who issued brass half-crowns in Ireland in. 1689, whereby coin valued half a cent had the nominal value of sixty cents, the Confederate Congress has voted $200,000 for the purpose of coining copper mosey, much alloyed, I to the extent of $5,000,000. This will be the most extensive cheat of modern times. One cent, by this process; will be ele. rated to the value of twenty-five, and thus the Confederate coinage will vie in worthlessness with its utterly valueless paper Money. This shows as much as any thing else, what straits the rebels are in. They might as well issue coin Made of sold-leather as this depreciated currency, which is to consist of five, ten, and twenty-five cent tokens, 'in alloyed copper. This ought to convince the South of its utter want of pecuniary means for carrying on its rebellion.. Base money, issued by authority, is the last despairing effort of a bankrupt treasury. Hon. W. D. Kenny. • The Times, a sprightly and influential news paper printed at 'Portland, Oregon, makes the following complimentary allusion to the Hon. W. D. KELLEY, the member from the Fourth district The friends of Judge KELLEY will be glad to see that his ability and services ar e appreciated even to the uttermost ends of the Republic " We present our readers this morning with the speech of Hon. Wm. D Kelley, of Pennsylvania, delivered in Congress May 9, on=the Pacific Rail road. His remarks are very able, and will psy well for their perusal. He is evidently a common sense man, and handles the question in a clear and practical manner. All who have watched the progress of feeling in. Congress on -this subject will take a sp ecial interest in reading the speech of Mr. Jitney, if for nothing else, simply• because he was one of the first movers and advocates of a railroad across the con inent.' "Be says that, notwithstanding our national em barrassments, now is the most propitious time that could possibly occur to set the , work in active head way ; that we would not feel the expenditure ne cesary to begin the work; thit it would cost ac tually nothing the first year and the expense would never amount to a serious obstacle'; the benefit of the railroad would, accrue chiefly to posterity, and they could well afford to pay the principal if .we but set the thing on foot. This is sensible talk ;,..we like it, and .recommend it to the attention of oar readers." UNITED STATES ARMY AMID - MIRED TACTICS Mr. Charles DesUver; wholes published several mil itary_ books of standard value, has just issued., in a neat volume, price only seventy-five cents, Captain Cooper's Infantry and Rifle Tactics, together with Captain Sully's Manual for Non-commissioned Offi cers of the United States Army, revised by Captain Minor Knowitoa,formerly_isistrwai.-or-tauttes at ft..-u.zoc-trtscates Military Academy, West Point. This a boon authorized and adopted by our highest military authorities, and, besides the taatics'for re gulars and volunteers, has alt the regulations of the military service—everything, in fact, that a soldier should know, whatever his rank. .General McClel lan and other leading officers in the service have endorsed this book with their high approval, and, under the militia law, the Adjutant General of Pennsilvania has subscribed for 10,000 • copies, to be distributed among all the officers in the service of the State. It is portable, low priced, and clear as well as full in the knowledge it commit/bates.
