UPfcwa tribune. ALTOONA, PA. THURSDAY, AUGUST 14 t 1862. Buucmroee of our Government. He public mind is somewhat unfavor ably influenced by the idea that, we are doing that which was never done before by any nation, and that the call for six hundred thousand men by the President, nod the proposed conscription in default of volunteers to fill the . number, are a greater effort upon our part, and form a tax upqn our national resources, beyond anything recorded in the pages of history. This, says the New York World, is not so. Those newspapers that harp upon this string in the face of historial facts, well known to every educated person, do so in order to depress the public enthusi asm, and thus indirectly aid the rebels.— The facts are that we have not yet begun to tax; our national strength and great wealth Mid resources in anything like the relative proportion possible, as may be seen from the statements we place before pur readers respecting that which France and Great Britain did in the war from 1798 to 1815. In the yearlBl3, after twenty years war in all Europe, Prance, with a popu lation of 28,700,000, placed in the field an. effective military force of 800,000 in fantry, 100,000 cavalry, 100,000 artil leryman, and engineers, making a total of a million of men. France also bad 3,- 500,000 hones, which consumed as much food as 80,000,000 .of people. In this same year, 1813, the conscription was also issued for twelve hundred thousand men, and it was allotted as follows:—!. 3fi0,000 drawn from those on the lists for conscription in 1812 and 1818, and from 1810 to 1813. 2. 180,000 from those on the list for 1814. 3. 120,000 men .from that of 1814; 160,000 men that of 1815. Great Britain,'in 1813, with a population including that of Ireland, of 18,547,720, had a total military and na val force under arms of 1,165,520 men. The population of the loyal States is about 28,000,000, or 5,000,000 more than that of Great Britain and Ireland in 1813, and about 5,000,000 less than that of France in 1813. Our wealth and natu ral resources are superior to either of thoee nations in 1813/and, instead of be ing twenty years at war, this is only the 15th month of our war, when they placed these vastannies of a million men in the field, wmed and equipped. The fact is that we are just as well able tolpMp up this war for twenty-two years as Great Britain and France were from 1793 .to 1815. There is not the slightest oeoMion to doubt *mr ample power and wealth 4o put down the rebellion, and to wage this war ftr twenty-two years, as Great Britain and France have done, with lem resources. At the end of the war in French national debt was $250,- 000,000, and the annual interest on the same only $12,500,000. Napoleon who was as able a financier as he was a gen eral, never would permit inconvertible paper money to be used' in France, and specie was the only legal currency existing in France during the whple of his long and expensive wars.

Ins position. ' Movements of Gov. Curtin. The Harrisburg Telegraph, of Thursday, i says that Gov. Curtin has gone to Wash i ington to consult with the President in I reference to the military organization of i this State, the time and manner of making the draft, and such other matters as will facilitate enlistments and drafting. The Telegraph adds further, that it is the desire of Gov. Curtin, if the acquiescence of the War Department can be had, to postpone the time fixed forthe draft. Tie is induced to this, on the assurance that there are hundreds of young and active men ready to enlist, if they are permitted ; to go into the service under the same auspices and terms of bounty which were accorded to the other men now in the army. This only seems just. At the time the call was made for the last three hundred thousand men, large numbers of the people of the rural districts were engaged in the work of harvest. That is now finished' —but volunteering is also finished, and nothing is left for such men as these but to Submit to a draft, which is regarded by many as ignominious. In order that this feeling may be dispelled, and the brave men who are anxious to volunteer may have an op portunity to dp so, Gov. Curtin will pro pose to the War Department an extension of the time fixed for a draft ;Tt is to be hoped that in this particular His Excel lency wifi be successful. Another and a still more important ob ject of Gov. Curtin, is to induce the War Department to vest the State authorities with power ’ to give townships, boroughs, towns, cities and counties credit for the men recruited thus far, so that the draft can be graded for such localities, throughout the Commonwealth. This seem only fair and just, because, however we may attempt to disguise the fact, there are localities in the Commonwealth in which men have boasted of their determination not to enlist, and in which the practice of interfering with vol unteers has been openly encouraged. The Muhdgb of McCook. —The most dastardly act of the prevailing war was the cold-blooded murder of Brigadier-General Rob’t McCook, by a band of guerrillas on Wednesday of last week. He was sick, and was in an ambulance on his way to Winchester,' Tennessee, and when near Salem, Alabama, was waylaid by a gang of desperadoes, who tilted him out of the vehicle and then brutally murdered him. So vile an act has not heretofore been per petrated, and it is no wonder that the rage of the Union people of Tennessee impelled them to acta of terrible retaliation. Rob ert McCook was one of the family of pa triots from Ohio that has furnished eight or ten fine soldiers to the war. He is the second who has -been killed, while one' or two others have been wounded. The rebel Gen. Lee and Gen. Hal ieck have recently been in correspondence iu relation' to the orders of Gen. Pope re quiring his men to subsist off the country through which they may pass. Gen. Lee threatens retaliation and a resort to un civilized warfare. Gen. Halieck answers that no threat will deter the Government of the United States from pursuing the course recently adopted, and that it (the Government) intends to avail itself of all the advantages allowed by the rules of civilized warfare. Two of Gen. Uee’s communications were so insulting that Gen. Halieck returnee! them unanswered. W Newspaper reporters tell us that the moypment of Gen. McClellan’s army, with the view of occupying Malvern Hill, was frustrated by the actions of Gen. Frank Patterson, who moved his men in such a manner as to give the enemy an idea of the intentions of Glen. McClellan.' It is said that he; was intoxicated at the time. He has ranee been arrested and sent to where he will undergo a court-martial. OSH. McCLELLAH KOYIHG. The Peninsula being Evacuated. Nkw York, August 14. A newtpaper correspondent at Fortress Monroe, under the date of the 12th instant, says that the moveinente of General McClellan indicate that thu great body of the Army of the Potomac is about to withdraw down the Peninsula. For the last forty-eight hours transports loaded heavily with troops are coming down the James river, and without stopping at Fortress Monroe, have gone directly up the bay to some river leading into Vir ginia. A private note from Fortress Monroe, dated yes terday, says : “The army is now moving away from Harrison’s Landing, and, by to-morrow, I hear the place will be cleared. They are coming down over the Chickahominy, I learn, to Yorktown, by land. — The artillery has been shipped bywatcr. The pontoon bridges went up to bridge the river, night before last." The steamer Adelaide, Capt. James Cannon, ar rived here this morning from Fortress Monroe with a large number of passengers, including offi cers of the army and discharged soldiers, many of whom were musicians, who are discharged. ' Baltwobe, Aug. 14. The regular mail boat from Harrison’s Landing came down the James river yesterday, and reports the greatest activity prevailing among the fleet of transports. A number of officers of the anhy and navy came dotrn (ram the Landing, who report the Army of tha Penlnsula in motion, but of coarse ate silent as to its destination. All day yesterday Hampton wwented a lively scene in cobse qqenee of the] arrival and departure of steamers and other vetmfa, and theweatherwas sneh as to frffittete army movements. Battle at Cedar Mountain. Washington, August 10.—The most desperate fight for the numbers engaged since the war commenced occurred yester day at Cedar Mountain, eight miles south of Culpepper Court House, Va., between General Banks’ corps d’armee of General Pope’s forces and the rebels under Stone- Wall Jackson in ,person. General Pope had sent General Banks’ command to the front early in the morning, and the divi sions of Generals Augur and Williams took a position a mile and a half this side of the ground of the skirmish of the day previous. In the afternoon, Crawford’s brigade, of Gen. Williams’ division, composed of the 46th Pa., 10th Maine, sth Conn., and 28th New York regiments, with JJest’s battery of regulars, moved forward to a piece of high ground between Cedar Creek and Crooked river, some four miles north of the point where the Culpepper and Gordonsville turnpike crosses that stream. To the south of this point, distant about three-fourths of a mile, rises the Cedar mountain, a spur of the great thoroughfare range. No sooner had our troops emerged from the timber on the north and crossed Cedar Creek, than a battery of heavy guns, lo cated in the thick timber half way up the mountain side, opened upon them with shot and shell, and other of smaller guns from a point of timber, about three-eighths of a mile to the westward. Brest’s bat tery of Parrot guns was immediately planted on the crest of the hill, and began replying to the two while the infantry was posted in line of battle to the right of the battery. The enemy kept up a continuous tire from both batteries some halt' an hour, which was returned by Capt. Brest, when three additional relief batteries opened from as many localities. At about five o’clock the rebel infantry was discovered in strong force upon our right and in front, supporting the batter ies, when word was sent back.to the main body, stating the fact, immediately. -Gen. Augur’s division, with the remainder of Gen. Williams’ division, were thrown forward and posted upon the right of Gen. Crawford, and fronting the dense timlier where the rebel infantry was posted. Gen. Banks now rode pu to the held and directed the operations of General Geary’s brigade of General Augur's divi sion, had the advance and' maintained it admirably. Gen. Geary’s brigade consist ed of the Fifth Oliio, Seventh Ohio. Twenty-ninth Ohio, Twenty-eighth Penn sylvania and Knapp’s battery. No sooner had these troops taken their places than the relwls opened musketry tire upon them from two sides and in front, aided by the batteries before mentioned. The batteries on the mountain also kept up a most destructive fire, but the Federal troops never faltered or even winced. At half-past five the battle became general, artillery replying to artillery and infantry and desperation was the order of the day. The fight continued until dark put a stop to the carnage. I have seen many battles during this war, but 1 have witnessed none where the tenacious obstinacy of the American character was so fully displayed. Our troops fought with the valor of veterans. No sooner did a volley of musketry or a charge of artillery mow down the ranks of a regiment than the gaps were closed up and a new front presented: regiment vied with regiment, and brigade with bri gade, in deeds of valor, and few instances indeed were there where even' individuals faltered. The Bth and 12th regulars, attached to General Banks’ corps, led by Captain Pitcher, did excellent service. Captain Pitcher was severely wounded, though not dangerously in the knee by a musket shot, but he kept the field until the end. With the setting in of darkness the firing of mus ketry ceased, but the artillery upon the mountain kept up, random firing until near midnight. At'dark our troops withdrew to a small copse of wood, about half a mile to the rear of their first position, where they were joined soon after by the corps of Generals McDowell and Sigel, who formed' in their rear at 9 o’clock in the evening. The hungry and wearied troops of Gen. Banks were relieved by portions of Mc- Dowell's command, and fell back - half a mile, resting on their arms in a pleasant clover field. The night was unusually lus trous, and all prominent objects were as plainly distinguished as in the bright day light. Thoroughfare mountain loomed up to the west, a 'rebel signal light now flash- ing through space, and our long columns standing by their muskets stretched up and down the slopes and fields were dimly des cried with their faces toward the enemy. Crawford’s brigade, which had borne this brunt of the fight, threw themselves almost exhausted upon the moist grass and talked over the adventures of the bat tle. Some of the men incautiously made fires, and this revealing our position, the enemy commenced shelling them. Their firing was generally excellent, the shells bursting among trains of ambulances and horses, soon compelling our soldiers to move back towards Culpepper. ~ A panic was very nearly occasioned at this, time, as the regiments took to their heels to get out of range, and, seeing so many men retrieating, others that had not reached the field also started to run, and soon the roads were crowded with fright ened people, who added to the existing misfortunes by telling wild stories of re pulse, loss and discomfiture. Soon the Provost’s guards were thrown across the roads and fields, stopping stragglers, and suffering only the wounded to pass. The wounded came in on foot in great num bers, and the ambulances were promptly on the spot to carry off 1 those; unable to walk. ■ The scenes that made the morning light terrible were the concomitants of all bat tie fields, but the unusually heavy loss of field and line officers was remarkable.— Most of our wounded are wounded in the lower limbs. About four o’clock in the afternoon, General Pope and staff went upon the field, and were greeted with the most vo ciferous cheers. The General rode to the extreme front in the thickest of the fight, and came near getting into a rebel ambus cade, but he discovered his danger in time to avoid it. We took several rebel prisoners, from whom I gained some\ information. It is ascertained that the rebel General Winder -is killed, General Jackson is wounded slightly in the liand, and General Saxton is mortally wounded. The rebel force en gaged in the battle was from forty to fifty thousand. Two pieces of artillery and a large num ber of small arms were captured from the enemy. Cci-peiter C. H., Va., August 12. The flight of Jackson shows that he fears our troops. On Saturday he engaged with his whole force, numbering at least thirty thousand men, a portion of the corps of Gen. Banks, who behaved nobly, holding the enemy in check, and, with the aid of one division of McDowell’s and Sigel’s corps, which arrived late in the day, dri ving it from several positions, and, finally, from the field of battle. Jackson’s loss can scarcely "be less than fifteen hundred. Our loss is much less. It was the bloodi est battle of the war. On Sunday Jack son remained idle, the troops on both sides being exhausted, and on Monday he asked for a truce to bury his dead, a large pro portion of which lie on the field of battle, pending which he escaped with his trains. This morning his whole army was gone, pursued by Gen. Buford, with his cavalry and artillery, which quickened his pace towards Gordonsvillc, compelling him to bum bridges to save himself, and obvious ly not intending to stop before reaching the fortifications at Richmond. General Pope has fully met the public expectation. The enemy show their tuicks only. The valley of the Shenandoah and the whole country from Manassas to Gordonsvillc is no longer polluted by the presence of armed rebels. Jackson’s servant has just come into the quarters of Gen. McDowell, and reports that Jackson admits a loss of two thousand men in the engagement of Satur day. No wonder the rebel General runl Burning of the Steamer Golden Gate, Sax Fkaxcisco, Aug B. —The steamer Golden Gate, Captain Hudson commander, has l>een burned at sea. She sailed hence for Panama on the 21st ult., having 95 cabin passengers, 147 in the second cabin and steerage, and a crew of 95, making a total of 337. She had on board 81,400,- 000 in gold, of which Kirby Byrne & Co. shipped 810,000, and Mcader, Lolor «fc Co. shipped the same amount. On the 27th ult., at 4:45 P. M., when fifteen miles north of Manazanilla while the passengers were dining, an alarm of fire was given. The steamer was prompt ly headed for the shore. 3i miles distant, the flames making fearful headway. At a quarter after 5 o’clock the upper deck fell in, and soon after the steamer struck the beach. The passengers and crew who had not got into the boats jumped overboard and endeavored to swim ashore. About one hundred, including five children, swam or were washed ashore alive. The ship wus burned to the water’s edge, and soon disappeared. Those on shore made their way to near Manzanilla as the steamer St. Louis ar rived up from Panama. Some few others escaped to Manzanilla in boats. One boat, with thirty-persons on board, has not been heard from, and probably made the shore south of Manza nilla. The steamer St. Louis arrived here to night, bringing seventy-eight of the Golden Gate’s passengers, all that are known cer tainly to be saved, and a portion of the crew. Captain Hudson and a part of the crew remained at Manzanilla to look after the missing passengers. ' Loyalty ix Noirrn Cakolixa.— A let ter from; Plymouth, North Carolina, says: There are before the town five gunboats, the Perry, the Putnam, the Ceres, the Lockwood and the Shawsheen. Compa ny F, of Hawkins’ Zouaves, are in town. There is a also a considerable force of North Carolina recruits, regularly mus tered into the United States service, clothed, equipped, and performing valuable service for the Union cause. I came here two days ago, and I have noticed squads of stalwart men from various portions of the surrounding country coming in and offer ing themselves to the United States, ready arid willing to spend their lives in its ser vice. On the 25th, two days ago, the people of this comity assembled in the court house in this town to organize them selves into a force to resist the rebels, and to adopt measures for the total annihila tion of treason within the county limits. The court house was crowded. Resolu tions w-cre passed which expressed the loyalty of the people, and their determina tion to rise up, resist the rebels, and strike a blow for their own recovery. The Ram Arkansas Destroyed. —The Petersburg Repress of the 9th has i a telegram from Richmond, dated the Bt|h. ■ which says: A dispatch from Geneiial Van Dom to Secretary Mallory states that the Confederate ram Arkansas, Lieut. Ste phens commanding, had been destroyed. She left Vicksburg on Monday to co-op erate in the attack on Baton Rouge. Af ter passing Bayou Sara her machinery be came deranged, and while attempting to : adjust it several Q f the enemy’s gunboats attacked her. After a gallant resistarfCc . she was abandoned and blow up. Her officers and men reached the shore in safety.

A I few passed the ordeal of separation with fortitude, I not deigning to meet trouble half-way, blit such I cases were rare, and required more self-possession I than generally foils to the lot of the gentler sex.— I Friends and acquaintances were there to give the I parting band and offer words of encouragement to I the gallant men who were about to exchange pleas | ant and comfortable homes for the privations, ex ■ posnres and dangers of camp iifo and the field of I battle. Spontaneously, as it .were, at the call of I their countiy, they laid aside the hammer, and I plain, and trowel, and other implements of peace, I to take g)i the sword and mnsket, implements ol I death, and go forth to meet and repel the foes of ■ liberty and Christianity, and obtain for themselves I an honorable place on the scroll of fame, or an hon- I orabla death in defence of the right. Nothing but 9 a clear consciousness of duty oonld have tempted I them to enter the service. All that heart I could wish and friends supply was theirs at home. I While all who enlisted are entitled to, and will re- I ceive, a bounty, yet we venture to say that scarcely S one in ten thought of the bounty when they gave I in their names. We would be sorry to know that I the poltiy sum offered as a bounty was necessary I to wake np our young men to a" sense of their I duty. ' The only advantage gained by offering the i bounty is, that it enables men who want to serve I their country, but who are poor, to leave some- I thing behind for the support of those who are de I pendent upon them. I Shortly before eight o’clock the Altoona Bras? I Band escorted the companies from their recruiting I offices to the cars in waiting for them, and at I about eight o’clock the train pulled out, amid tht I vociferous cheers of the crowd at the depot and 01 I the cars, the waving of handkerchiefs, the bodmiof I of little “ Union,” and music by the brass am I martial bands.
