Itoaaa Sritoc op_™,w loim The 76th P. T- in the Kght. <Di mow jurouio nciT ,w*s u * ALTOONA, PA TUESDAY, JULY 21. 1863. The Situation. In aliwara, saccessesare hoped for, and reverses mint MwetimM be expected. But when reverses, or waatof sncwwes fill up. the measure of days and months, the heart of n nation grows sick.— .Suchsanmedtobe onr condition a few weeks ago. Bat fifemfcato tbeßufer of the destiny of nations a-dtjm#' W come, and victory perches once eor banners ' hope springs up anew in onr fiMft*. The events off be last few weeks are big with interest:to ns as a natioa, and to the world. Tfeeiavaaion of Pennsylvania filled many hearts withfimad, and was on the part of the Rebel leadasa-a desperate nndartaking, and, in some re apers*, dnerifal havebeen its results. Many green spots haaa hetn .polluted by the feet of the inva dcr, end the golden fruit of many harvest fields has been destroyed. . Bat above all, the cherished ones of many: homes, deep* upon the red field, “ the sleep that knows no waking.” Some have gone down in the priihe of thejr manhood, and others, with the tenderness of boyhood still lingering on their brows, have closed their eyes amid the thunder* of battle, to open them no more upon the green fields of earth; and now over many unmarked and nameless graves, the evening wind, sings a sad requiem. Bnt the tame' wind tings a song of brilliant achievements, and fens the laurel which is woven in wreaths of imperishable, beautv and gloty. around the names of the lamented bnt honored dead. Tbein were deeds of heroism which shall live upon the page, while Gettysburg shall be ont of the classic names of iristoiy. Though Gen. Lee has again effected his escape, yet bis defeat and root hare been of incalcula ble importance. The army of the Potomac which has fought and suffered so much, but with fre queut ill success-—in a measure disheartened—was permitted to teach the rebel leaders and theii followers, that the soil of Pennsylvania, though i. might produce here and there a straggling traitor, was nevertheless a soil illy adapted to the growth and success of treason. Our soldiers on the Held of Gettysburg received a new impulse, inspirited thus and flushed with victory, their loss in numbers will be more than made up in the renewed energy which will All every breast. If there were no other benefits arising from this success of our arms, this alone would be a victory in the present crisis' wortii con tending for, but the result is doubled when wt reflect that Lee’s army has just experienced the reverse. It came, as with the lread of a conqueror on a triomphant marcb. , Ithas fallen hack defeated, dispirited w>d demoralised. And though, through the shrewdness which we are willing to accord— of its cotnmander, it has once more reached the “ Sacred soil,” it .has reached that soil no longe to be,dreaded os it once was. Another advantage we have gained by this re pnlwof Lee is the lesson they have been' tanghi concerning ourreaenred strength and its readmes? and w&lingness to rise at a moment's call to beat bock the invaders. We are crediUy informed that they expected to find bnl few men at home in Pennsylvania, and those .Jew favorable to their cause. They did find a .few of this character, and they so worthies? that even the rebels themselves spurned them, and ia addUon they found thousands of the bom and dnew of the land leaving their fields and theii work shops their offices and counting-rooms— shouldering their trusty firelocks and going forth to drive the traitor from their fields and moan tain fastnesses. But Gettysburg stands not alone in the eventi , that mark the paat few week*. Victory at Vicks burg, A-Mptixiug the Fourth of July with glory, andgainingto na a atrong hold which Jeff. Davh himself admitted was the .key to all their pros pects. Victory at Helena, when they hoped to succeed but two fearfully repulsed; Victory a Port Hudson and the Mississippi opened to navi gation for Union veeels, but closed to supplier forthe rebellion. 3jhna summing all up we feel that we have deci dedly the advantage in onr favor, .a balance to our, than at any time since the rebel viper uncoiled itself. Verily ire think we see light ehend. Tan $3OO Exemptioh.—lt has been decided by the War that a drafted man who believes hupseff physically incapable of doing mil itaty.duty. and desires the opinion of the examin ingJrttfKm.hasbnt to deposit 9800 with the Col loctorof internal Revenue, and, if upon examina tion it isfonpd that he it entitled to exemption the aumsy'will h* returned him, while if a different coq(d(wion is arrii-ed at in his case he can obtain exmnption either by permitting the $3OO to remain in the hands of the Collector, or furnishing an ac ceptable substitute. ' Qouet** Übt'i Book.— We have received this excellent Monthly for August; and, upon remaining its nestly-printed pages, we find it re~ ph|B ariSt highly interesting .and useful reading Matter, besides-its usual quota of vings, fashion plates, patterns, &c.

Acknowledgment of Rebel Disasters.— The Richmond Inquirer, of the 14th, in an edi toriai, says; “ The foil of Vicksburg, the retreat ofDPWK the repulse of Lee, and die advance on Charleston, are all seriou* diiaatetv the most ••rioos that hare attended onr arms since the com- RUWMMnt of the #ar.” In the Boston Heralds correspondence concern ing the jtecent unsuccessful attack ’made by onr troops upon this rebel stronghold, we find the fol lowing paragraphs; “On the 12th instant, General Gilmore ordered the storming of Fort Wagner by the Seventh Con necticut. Ninth Maine and Forty-seventh and Forty-eighth New York Volunteers, and the two first named regiments had actually reached the top of the parapet, when a murderous fire from the enemy drove them back. The Seventy-sixth Pennsylvania, which were to support the assailing party, did not come up in time, and our troops had to withdraw. “ The cause of the failure of the Scventv-sixth Pennsylvania is ascribed to the fact that Colonel Strawbridge and the Lieutenant-Colonel were in the hospital sick, and as the Major was shot in ■both legs eany in the day, the command devolved upon a Captain, in whom the men had no confi dence, arid thus faltered at the time they were wanted," By the following particulars of the engagement, which we are permitted to glean from a private letter received by a citizen of this place,' it willbe seen that the Herald's correspondent does not tell the truth in regardto the actions of the gallant 76th on this occasion. The letter is dated “ Hilton Head. July 13th, 1863,” and says : “Operations are progressing on Morris and James Islands finely, with the exception of tire i repulse at Fort Wagner, where the 9th Maine failed to support the 6ih Connecticut and 76 A- Pennsylva nia regiments. The batteries on Morris Island are all in the hands of our men, except Fort Wag ner and Cummings’ Point Many prisoners were captured, and but for the faltering of the 9th Maine in front of Fort Wagner, Major Hicks, says, the Fort would have been taken; but, as they were so much exhausted, they could nut hold it without support. Major Hicks fell ou the glacis of the Fort, wounded by a grape shot through both thighs. His wound is not considered mortal, although the ball passed through within an inch of the arteries. When the Major fell, Capt. Jos. R. Findley took Iris place and pressed onward; his clothes were riddled with bullets, but he escaped uninjured.— Lieut. Col. Rodman, who led the detachment of he 6th Connecticut, was wounded'in the thigh— supposed to be mortally. Capt. Knerr, of Co. H, 76th P.;V., was also wounded in the thigh. Lt. Miller, of the same company, and Adjutant of the regiment, was killed on the top of thi parapet, gallantly changing into the Fort at the head of Iris regiment.” Does this look as if the 76th “faltered?” If it does, we “can’t see it.” The letter goes on to say: “The loss of the 76th is about 100 or more, out of a detachment of 680. Lts. Stomhangh and Beittinger were both wounded and taken prisoners. Company F is badly cut up—only 18 men being able to answer o their names—although many, it is supposed, were exhausted and would be in after some time; also, that many were in the hands of tile enemy, is prisoners. Orderly Sergeant Crawford Girin is among the missing. Bub Wayne is slightly wounded, and young Connor killed. lam ex pecting a list of the killed and wonnded as soon as it is completed at the Hospital, when I will for ward yon a copy. s ■ ; , “It was after taking five other batteries that the attack was made on Fort Wagner, and then the garrison was reinforced by those who escaped from the batteries. Another great the repulse was, that the guns of Fort Sumpter were able to throw shells over Foirt Wagner, and thus annoyed our men greatly. Fort Wagner is iron-clad, and, through exhaustion and want of support, pur men were forced to retire, The Monrors are, at work rt Fort Wagner, and the Engineers ,are erecting flatteries to command both Wagner and Cum mings’ Point. Although slightly repulsed, our men are anything but discouraged, as they have great confidence in General Gilmore, who has only been here a month and has accomplished so much. In the opinion of Major Hicks, Fort Wagner will be taken just as soon as they have batteries erected to protect our men, which will be before long, as every available man, horse and mule, is working to the utmost.” This letter was closed on the Uth, when the writer says: “ General Gilmore is now erecting a battery within 230 yards of Fort Wagner, and mounting 200-pound guns, with which he can ifterwards reach Fort Sumpter. Monitors and gunboats are playing away on Sumpter, and by he end of this week they expect to be abje to open in it an uninterrupted fire from Morris Island General Gilmore is working in his shirt-sleeves wjth his men, and eating “hardtack” and pork, is they do. Great confidence is placed in him.” The Position of Gen. Lee’s Army.—A Herald's special from Washington the 19th, says he rebel army has not made as rapid progress oward Culpepper as has been generally supposed. Then:,is good reason for stating that the ' bulk of Lee’s army is still in the vicinity of Winchester. There was also quite a large rebel force at Banker. Hill, which is between Winchester and Martins horg, yesterday. J It would he improper <to state where Gen. Meade's army is, but there is good ground to hope that they may complete ~|he dis traction of the remains of the rebel artiiy. The Philadelphia Inquirer has a dispatch dated Hagerstown, the 18th, stating that the rear gnard of Lee’s army left Martmsbnrg on Saturday morning. Our whole force is across the river. The Potomac was foiling rapidly.— Lee is retreating with his main force by Sirasbnrg and Staunton, and not by way of Culpepper. Rosecrans Pursuing Braoo Closely.—A dispatch, dated Memphis, July 17, Says :»t- “ General Hurltmt’s scorns arrived at ’Corinth to-day from Decatur and Jacksonville. They re l>ort Bragg retreating precipitately into Georgia, followed .by Resetrans’ forces. Rosecrana’ ad vance is reported at Rome, Ga. Scouts report Bragg endeavoring to make a junction with John ston, and that desertions lro(n bis army are nu merous.” i ’ Killed bt a Handspike.—Thomas D. Dev eraux, of Cambria tp., while assisting one of his neighbors at log rolling, was struck! in tfie ster num bv a handspike which was thrown by the sudden turn of a log sending him back a consid erable distance and causing a fracture of several °f his ribs. _ The poor man, nnconcious of the’ ex tent of his injuries, walked home some three miles, causing an inflammation which resulted iii hisdeaih a few daysafterwards.— Ebetaburg Sentinel. tar The departments of North and Sooth Caro lina have been consolidated into one department, and Major-General Foster, has been designated as the general commanding.

My childhood’s friend, A noble heart and brave, Who, early yielding to the cup, Became its willing slave. I saw the trace upon his brow, j Left by the ram-fiend’s tread; I heard his wife in anguish monm. His children beg for bread. 1 saw his home made desolate And rain crowd aronnd; I saw his bloody, mangled corpse Upon the railway found. Twas asked, who spread this clond of night? Who threw this gloom afar? A widow’s trembling hand was raised And pointed to the “ bar.” The “bar,” whence flows so mnch of death. The “bar,” where furies dwell; The “bar,” the fittest earthly type Of demon’s work in hell. The Burned and Rescued. BY ALCm^UDB. Twas midnight—starless midnight— yet from those heavy clouds fell not the raindrops; its dull sonnd might have been music to her heart. jßut it was the winter clouded sky, and the cold* wind whistled through the many crevices of that log dwelling. Lonely, because happy smiles, loving words, and ever fond hopes had long ago bade it adieo. Hark! the sound of merry slcighbells and the gleeful laugh of light-hearted maidens is earned by on the air, but there is no gladness in that sound for her. Ah! no, it is a very mockery, and the thoughts it stirs, seems to freeze with very coldness her already crashed heart. It brings back to her remembrance, hours of long ago, when with light tread she descended marble steps to seal herself beside him she loved, and listen with different feel ings from the present, to the happy chime of the rattling bells. Ah! those were happy days when even the wintry wind had glad mnsic in its sound, but they are passed and now in that dim-lighted hovel, she sits—sits all. alone, shivering with cold, wan with hanger, and sod at heart. The scene here introduced had not its birth in imagination—it is no fiction, and perhaps to-day ten thousand pale emaciated women in our land would start, to read our narrative, and feel, with but few exceptions, the misery was at least their own. Cornelia ———, and this is no borrowed name, was-a young lady of actual intelligence and worth; not, u is true, superior to many others, but inferior to few. Her childhood and girlhood had been spent in comparative luxury, yet she had not been denied the opportunity of becoming acquainted with the duties incident to the every day routine of life.— In a word, she was well prepared to grace the kitchen, dining-room or parlor, to bake bread or touch the keys of the piano with artistic skill. She was not what the world calls handsome, and yet when her full soul welled up into her eyes or spread upon her face in smiles she was beautiful. She was just such a being as was well qualified to make home happy. She was half orphaned—her father bad been cut down in the prime of his manhood, and in the midst of a useful life, hy that dreadful disease the cholera; but her mother was left her—a woman full of energy, guided fay unswerving principle and Christian rectitude. Under her guiding care and instruction Cornelia grew up an affectionate daughter, and a devoted Christian. It was in her nineteenth year that she first met W. He was a young man of fine abilities, noble mien, and generous heart. Possessed of much of this world's goods and enjoying a reputation as a Christian, it was not strange that his visits were satisfactory both to parent and daughter. Nor is it strange that he was soon the accepted suitor of Cornelia; and with her enjoyed pleasant prome nades, and the joyous sleighride of which we have already spoken. But why lengthen my story. — They were married, and for a time Cornelia’s mother was an inmate of their dwelling. The stream of life flowed smoothly, or if rippled at all, it was only by those adverse circumstances to which human lifens subject. But a change came. Cornelia was found in tears—her bean had long ached as she had marked, ail unobserved to others, habits of intemperance stealing upon her husband, but now the first harsh word bad been spoken, and that concerning her mother too. It was hard, yet she dried her tears, not even accounting for them to her on whose breast she had so often laid her head,! and told her childish sorrows. This was too deep to be made known. Bat it could not be long till the loving mother must know the worst, and not content to remain where her presence, instead of comforting, intensified the pangs of her danghter’s grief, she sought another home. It was a sad houf for Cornelia, bnt she submitted, for W. com plained that her mother was a burden there, and yet he had all she possessed under his control. Ah! it was not himself it was a demon that brooded those thoughts and spoke those words of nnkind ness. Downward—how that single word points many a man's course—downward W. passed, his Christian character was gone—bis fireside was forsaken, his business neglected, his heart possessed by the de mons that lurk around the’ drinking saloon and the “gambling hell,” for one vice had led him to another. I was poor then—as I am yet—and he had often favored me. I shall therefore never for get my surprise when on the evening referred to in the introduction he came to me with hurried steps and Qskcd me to lend him five dollurs. I had been absent for some weeks and did not know that the sheriff held the keys to his fine store-room and .dwelling and that his family had been driven to seek refuge from the inclemency of the weather in u building that by others had lieen deserted, but it was so. He told me all in a .few. words, and 1 thought he was penitent. I granted his request, and supposed it would be properly applied. But no, I watched his course; it led to a gambling saloon. Soon I met him again, he asked me for another loan;. ! denied him and begged him to ac company me . to his home, but in anger he refused and left me. Business and company kept me till the midnight hour, and as I returned to my lodgings I passed their humble dwelling. There she sat watching and waiting, mild in h<r grief, calm in her sadness, now the wreck of what she once was. And there alone, she afterwards said, she watched until morning’s grey dawn was painted upon the clouded skv. How many nights she watched thus we are un able to say—bnt we are able to say that another change occurred, and that Cornelia’s fare though paler than it was wont to be in girlhood, has re gained its old familiar smile, and she has heen heard to say that through the goodness of God she owes it all to the Sons of Temperance. It was one of that noble though much abased Order who raised the insensible W. from the street where he had fallen and persuaded him to apply for admis sion into ■ Division No. , into which he was initiated in the month of May, 1853. If you will go with me now, kind reader, I will show you in one of onr western towns a neat and pleasant dwelling surrounded by shrubbery, and superin tended by Cornelia. And there in her old arm chair Jhs her mother, and the fine looking gentle man there making his toilet, is none other than W.—now well-to-do in life—preparing to attend the Division to-night. Tie! says the rnmseller'and rum drinker I would not be -a Son of Temperance, they take away a man's freedom. Folly, says the church member, the Sons of Temperance do no good. But we ssy turn to Moralitv’s record and see. Go to Cornelia and know with what joy a Son of Temperance is welcomed. Items About the Draft. The following items of {information respecting the coming draft will interest our readers gener ally : THE SIX MONTHS’ MEN IN THE DRAFT. Tne Provost Marshal General has issued a cir cular of instruction in relation to the draft, in which ha says: All men who have been mustered into the United States service, under the call ot the President of the United States, dated June 15, 1863, for troops for six months’ service, or who have volunteered for State service alone, are liable to draft under the enrollment act. If any of those who have been mustered into the United States service should be drafted, they will receive credit for the time they may have served, or or may yet serve, under the present engagement. Those so drafted are to be taken np on the des-. criptive roll of drafted men, and notified through their present commanding officer. They will, until further orders, continue on doty with the or ganization to which they may belong at the time of the draft, and at the expiration of that service, will be assigned to three years' regiments for the completion of their term of service. Those called out by Governors of States, for State service, and not mustered into the United States service, will, if drafted, be duly notified through their command ing officers, and required to report to the Provost Marshal of the district where they were drafted, to be enrolled in the United States sendee for three years from the date of such enrollment.— This settles the question of the liability of the six months militia to the draft. * DISPOSITION OF TUB CONSCRIPTS, A special dispatch from Washington states that the men raised under the draft are not to form new regiments by themselves, but are to be as signed to fill up the old regiments in the Army of the Potomac and other armies. They will thus at once get among veteraij/tvpll disciplined, well drilled soldiers ; and in a few 1 weeks they will be quite equal to these in military tapacity and power of service. ALIENS AND THE DRAFT, By the President’s proclamation of May 8, no plea of alienage will be allowed to exempt any pc-son of foreign birth from the draft who shah have declared on oath his intention to become a citizen of the United States, and who shall be found within its limits at any time during the continu ance of the rebellion, at or after the expiration of sixty days from the date of the Proclamation.— The lime thus s|«eified expired on Monday. The Provost Marshal General has issued the following explanatory instructions; 1. Any drafted person paying $3OO, under Section 13th, of the Enrollment Act, is thereby exempt from further liability under that draft, but not from any subsequent draft. 2. Any drafted person furnishing an accepta ble substitute is exempt from military service for the period of which said substitute is mustered into the service. .3 A substitute once mustered into tbs service cnanot he drafted while in the service. .4. A drafted man cannot pay commutation money or present a substitute after he has'reported himself to the Board of Enrollment for examina tion. 5. Men who, on the third of March, 1863, were in the military service of the United States as sub stitutes under the draft of 1862, and whose terms of service have since expired, are not liable to the present draft, but the persons for whom they were, substitutes are liable to draft the same as though they had not been drafted and furnished substitutes under the draft of lost year. 6. In serving the notice as required by circular No. 42, from this office, a reasonable time to re port shall in each ease be granted by the Board of Enrollment to men in the State service who have been or may be drafted. ' JAMES. B. FBY, Provost Marshal General. A day of Thanksgiving and Prayer. Washington, Jolt 16. Br the President of the United States or w America ; A PROCLAMATION, It has pleased Almighty God to hearken to the supplications and prayers of an afflicted people, and to vouchsafe to the Army and the Navy of the United States Victories on land and on the sea, so signal and sot effective as to furnish reasonable grounds for augmented confidence that the Union of these States will be sustained, their Constitution preserved, and their peace and prosperity perma nently restored. But these victories have been accorded not without sacrifices of life, limh, health and liberty, incurred by brave, loyal and putriv : c citizens.— Domestic afflictions in every part ot the country follow in the train of these fearful bereavements. It is meet and right to recognize and confess the presence of the Almighty Father, and the power of His hand equally in these triumphs and these sorrows. - Now, therefore, be it known. That I do set apart Thursday, the 6th day of August next,, to: be ob served as a day of national thankgiving, praise, and prayer, and I invite the people of the United States to assemble on that occasion in their cus tomary places of worship, and in the forms ap proved by their own conscience, and render the homage due the Divine Majesty for the wonderful things Ho has done in the nation’s behalf, and in voke the influence of His Holy Spirit to subdue the anger which has produced anil so long sustained a needless and cruel rebellion ; to change the hearts of the insurgents; to guide the counsels of the Government with wisdom adequate to so great a national emergency, and to visit with tender care and consolation throughout the length and breadth of our land all those who through the vicissitudes of marches, voyages, battles and sieges, have been brought to suffer in mind, body or estate, and fi nally to lead the whole nation, "through the paths of repentance and submission ■to the Divine will back to the perfect enjoyment of Union and fra ternal peace.

Pettigrii’a command, 1,000 prisoners and 4,000 killed and wounded—making an aggre gate of 45,500 of Lee’s army. General Howard reports farther that only six rebel surgeons were left behind at Gettysburg, and with one or two exceptions, manifested utmost in difference as to the condition of their wounded, nor did they leave any medical stores on the field. This fact should be contrasted with the battle at Chanrellorsville, where Lee received medical stores and Surgeons from the Federais, who took good care of their wounded. Morgan’s Defeat. — Chtcimati, July 20.—0 n Saturday morning Morgan's forces were overtaken near Pomeroy by Hubson and Jordan, who had formed a junction. Morgan finding himself in close quarters, and learning that the ford at Buf fington Island was well guarded, broke his band in small squads, in order to escape. One squad with six pieces of artillery made for the crossing at Buffington, but the gtm-bdats drove them back with a loss of one hundred and fifty killed and drowned, bar cavslrv charged and captured the battery, killing a number of rebels. Cote. Wolford and Shackelford succeeded in capturing one lot of 575, and another lot of 675, besides numerous squads, making in all over 1,000 prisoners. Among them. Col. Dick Mor gan, brother of John, and Col.'Ward and Grijpby. Our cavalry is in pursuit of the balance or the command, which is entirely broken up and scat tered in the Kills, The position of opr forces is snch (hat they cannot get across the Ohio, nor get much further north.

Banks, 12,000; by Gen. Uosecrans, 4,000; byGenetieal Sherman, 2,000; by General Prentiss, 2,000; making all a total of 84,000 —77,000 of which were taken on hand since the 3d ,of July.
