An armed mob of soldiers—tea iti num ber, and members of the Anderson Troop,, stationed near this place—entered onr office on Friday evening, tho 24th alt., at about 7i o’clock, in tho absence of ouWlf'nnd hands, and destroyed some of our materials, knocked into “ pi” several forms Of type,, hacked tho hod of the press with an aso, tore up a thous and shoots of damp white paper (which had been prepared for our regular edition, J broke apitchcr, carried off an eagle out, and commu ted various.other very uncivil depredations. They effected ah entrance by forcing the out side door, breaking the look. They also forced open thodoorbf our private room, but finding nothing but our books and private papers, thcsoworc ncftmolosted. They were . not in the office ever five minutes, and' wore frightened off by two boys, who •■threatened to arrest the whole party. We did.not,refer to this outrage in onr last, hoping that by another week we would bo able to point cut tho perpetrators. Wo are still unable to do this, however, hut have reason to believe,” that all tho men who-cn tcred our office in the night, behind ourbitck, are-members of the Troop, with one except tion. It is tho more astonishing that men connected with this military organization should have made this assault upon our prop erty, for we have shown more kindness to this very Troop than any mania our town, ns the sidk in the hospital will testify. 'Ourself anti family have spared neither trouble 'nor ex pense in attending to the wants of the invalids, and for along time before any one else thought of them, we alouo provided them with deli cacies from bur table. Wby then did these men—men who are sworn to obey the laws— solect us as their victim on the night in ques tion? Political animosity, of course.;, they wera prompted by an Abolition spirit, which teaches men to destroy the property of those who havo vanquished them at tho polls; .a mob spirit. ’ 2377 Wo have boon told (by members of the Troop,) that two articles which appeared in our issue of October 23, gave “ offence” to some of the men in camp. One article “ boasted too loud over our victory,” our in formant told us; and the other was “too personal against the President.” Has it not come to a pretty pass when armed men are to to bo the judges of newspaper articles ?, and must we run the risk of ti/cir displeasure, if w,e express opinions that run counter to theirs 1 Men may possibly be schooled into submission to a decent despotism, but this Abolition despotism that stabs in the dark and behind the back, is a new era in the world, and oho which no good citizen or hon est man will submit to or countenance for a 1 moment. , " . 1742 634 524 But, the Philadelphia Press, published by the vindictive and remorseless Fornev, and the Harrisburg Telegraph, published-by' the infamous blockhead and Hessian, Beecher, say that the assault was made on our office because of our “ disloyal sentiments.” That is false. The man who charges us with dis loyalty lies in his throat and is a coward in 524 is'heart. Abolition traitors have dealt in this slang long enough and too,, long, when speaking of Democrats, and it.was supposed that after the people of this State bad hurled the lie back in their teeth, that common de cency would dictate to those dirty wretches the propriety of dropping this kind of detrao- [ tion. Prior to the election every Abolition editor and every hireling under the adminis tration, denounced as and seces sionists" all those who expressed n determi nation to support tho Democratic candidates. Did' those men speak tho truth, and is it true that* majority of 650 of the voters in Cum berland county,,.and 3,000 majority in the State ate “traitors?" No, it is not true— the men who made tho charge are falsifiers. It appears to bo tho opinion of some, how ever, that opposition to the treasonable plans , of tho rabid Abolitionists' is. “ disloyalty.’’— If this bo the case, then a majority of . the people of this State are disloyal; but if to support the Government with men and moans, defend tho Constitution and laws, and urge on vigorous war measures is loyalty, then tho people are loyal; then wo are loyal, for this wo have always done. We have condemned, and so have tho people, many of the acts of the administration. Wo shall continue to do so, oven if tho Abolition devil stands at our door. The Emancipation proclamation, the suspension of the habeascorpus, the keeping of tens of thousands of runaway negroes at the public expense, the District of Columbia Bill, the attempt to force the Border States to give up their . slaves, illegal arrests, the prodigality of many of those who handle' the public money, are acts that no man who is [not a bigoted fanatic can approve of.— We agree with a distinguished Union man of Tennessee, that “ these measures will cost us tans of thousands of lives, raise up against us a hundred thousand rebel bayonets, and pre vent enlistments in the North.” Such being our conviction, we regretted these measures, and condemned them. The Bresidenthas ap proved them, and is responsible for them, and for the direful mischief they have occasioned. ' When wo suggested that ho had better re i sign, it was a borrowed idea, not our own, and was only similar to the suggestion Grek ov and Beecher made in their respective papers, hut a few weeks ago, with this differ -1 enco—they said if he did not “ abdicate voluntarily, ho would be forced to do so by public opinion.” Beecher still persists in his demand, and in his paper (the Jndepend-. ent,) of a very recent date, he denounces the President in most unhoard of severity. But, Greblv and Beecher are good Abolitionists —“ loyal men,” as some would call the trai tors—arid their offioeif are not molested by 635 an armed mob. But, we have said more than wo Intended, and have diverged somewhat from our sub ject. Tho few misguided men who commit ted this outrage were instigated to the act by two or three scoundrels residing here, who have, desired for a year or more to hiss o mob upon us. Had not their minds been haunted with visions of the penitentiary, they would have been tempted to the act themselves long before now, bn some dark night, in our ab sence. We know them. Democratic National Hymns— The “Star SpangVcd Banner” and “Hail Columbia.” i Neguo-Worshipeer’s National Hymn— -“ John Brown’s Soul is Marebing On,” O* The Domperaoy are at thrar-jjld tricks ‘Saving tho'Unjcn S’ 1 . E7* Tim Carlisle jlv aUI with a vindictive ness peculiar to itself, copies an cxtrnct'fi'ttei our paper of tiro 2oth ult., and, by its’fc'oni monts, would wake its readers believe that Vvo threatened and connived nt thb “hssbbsilia tion of tho President, in case ha refusestufe eign." Such a thought never -entered bur head. Wo are incapable of entertaining such a thought. During tho late political contest Abolition speakers frequently hinted at tho necessity that existed for the assassination of Ex-President Buchanan, and.uno of them, in a speech not-five hundred yards from Wheat land, asked his hearers whether they, were “ willing that tho ‘ old traitor’ should long er remain in their midst.” In a speech.(oo, delivered at Brooklyn, about ton days ago, by Cassius MV Or.A v, ho said—“ So Tar from find ing fault with Abraham Lincoln, bo rather found fault with him that he' had not sus pended, tho habeas corpus, not by a dash of tho pen, but by tho ropes round the ncoks of these traitors of the Democratic party.” ■ Tho Herald very well know to what toe re ferred when w.o spoke of the danger that threatened tho President. The throats made ■against hinrhy Qreblt and Beecher quite ro •oontly, and the glib manner in which they spoke in favbr df a “ strong Government with a military chieftain at its head,” could not bo misunderstood by a discriminating people. The men making those threats may not have meditated assassination, but they did hint at anarchy, and the necessity that existed .for seizing the Government by force, and estab lishing upon its ruins a military despotism. At that very time, too, the Governor of Massa chusetts, when' bo was asked by the Presi dent for troops, revolted, and wrote an impu dent letter to Mr. Lincoln, in which fro refused him “another man,”-and defied tho Govern ment. It was manifest—clear as tho sun in tho heavens—that a revolutionary project was seriously contemplated by the radical politi cians of the Abolition school. The President ■himself was fully aware of it. If some such project was not intended, why did they db riiand a soparato_command for Fremont, with 100,000 men, after ho had been dismissed from the scrvldo?,lt is now charged upon Fremont by Francis P; Blair, of St. Louis, that lio.(Fremont) has labored for his ooan try’s overthrow. We all. know him to be a dangerous, aspiring man, just the kind, in an emergency like.the: present, to become".a cut-purse ot the Empire and the rule,” by usurping the liberties of. the people. This man the radical leadOrs*have clung to with all tho. tenacity of fanatics ; and to show our renders tho sort of man he is, we select thq. following from an address lately published by Col. Blair. Mr. Blair, bo it remembered, is a leading and influential Republican Mem ber of Congress, and Lis brother is the pres ent Post-Mastor-General. Mr. Blair says i “Fremont was thou plotting against the Government which had trusted him, and using tho means placed in his bands for its. support to work its destruction, aud establish for. himself n dictatorship upon its ruins. If his, ability had heed equal to bis ambition, ho would pdrhaps have sought to enact the same role how being played by Jeff Davis. The patriotism of our people, and Ids imbecility was our safety.”' ... ■ . ■ But, we have evidence of n more rooenfcdatd, that the radicals are still after the President with a very sharp stick. The New York World; an, able and influential Republican ■paper, in its issue of two weeks since copied, the following from tho London Economist: , “ Ilad Englishmen soon what have, their resources of men and money frit-, tered add wasted away, without achievement and without glory, in, stupid enterprises and shameful failures, wo would have hung Mr. Lincoln, Mr. Stanton, or somebody.” The World comments on the above in these words: i. “ Very true; Hr. Lincoln has done that in this country which host one monarch in England his head, and another his throne. Goneially, this remedy, if sometimes slow, is effective : but there is no telling how soon or how much we may improve in our mode of redressing wrongs, if things continue as they are much longer. Wo are a quick people, and not too proud to take a useful lesson even from England. As to Stauton, the Econo mist is correct in its assertion tiiat had Stan ton boon retained in power in England, as ho has been here, against tho wish and in utter defiance of nearly the ,whole people, his bo-, whiskered and dull face would long ere this have leered from the top of a piko.” Now, was it a very heinous offence in ns after those threats had been made against the President and tho Government, coupled‘with ’thofact that throe great Northern States had just condemned the administration, to suggest to Mr. Lincoln tho propriety of him resign- ing, and that “ho should be glad to ho per mitted to do so?” This pjot against the Pre sident and the Government has not boon abandoned by tho Abolition clans, and if they were sure they could bo successful, they would make tho attempt before tho end of a fortnight, to seize, by force, tho roins of power. It was to tboso circumstances we referod in our short article from which the ,Herald published an extract in its last. Every man of sense and every reading man well understood us, and so did even the stupid Herald , but it was moan enough to misconstrue the moaning of our remarks,, and accuse us with originating tho idea, that violence he need against the President. It is your own party friends, Mr. Herald, who are responsi ble for tho idea, and you know it, and never had a word of condemnation to say against the conspirators. , inT’Will any one be found foolish enough to say a largo majority of the People of Penn sylvania, Ohio and Indiana are “Seoosh sym pathisers” ?— Exchange. Oh yes, plenty will ho found who reiterate the monstrous lie, hut they are the men who are in favor of th» war being continued to mo indefinite period, so that they may coin mon ey out of men’s blood and woman’s tears.— Democrats are for putting the war through as soon as possible. jjgy» D.

But, really, the pooploaroheooming clamorous for a more vigorous prosoentionof the war, and it is not much wonder. It-lsmore. than probable that wo shallhave a long and a aevoro win ter, and it is not strange therefore, that all classes of onr people have a dread of our troops passing another winter in tents and in idleness.;. Tho following remarks of the Philadelphia Inquirer are sonsiblo and to'tbd points ' . - , There are not’wanting instances in -flip history of warfare in phioh'tho ■Pahaih fsJlioy.; of delay lias been crowned with large sbeoßss. .When a weaker forpo is,.-confronted by_ a stronger to delay a conflict maysometinios give an opportunity to strike a snoboSsltil -blow. When a hostile force, ho it groivtol-Ur shia.ll-, or, id hold together by no Rrmliepm’Of unibif,; to allow it to fall to pieces by itself is often thb; cheapest possible way to secure its destruc tion. , It was with this in view that tlieDukri Alva, in the Netherlands, continually (IbOlih-- od tho offers of battle made to hirfi by 'thof Prince of Orange, and allowed the bloso of the; campaign ,to arrive vy 1 1 1\ no decisive ,move-; mfcnt on his own part. . lie suffered the, ene-i my to go unmolested into winter Quarters, and the forces of Orange wasted away rapid ly, and loft him no foe to fear. ; Biit it is no less true, as a general rule in war as well as. in peace, that “ delays are dangerous.’?, It was tlio delay, of a few brief hours tb»t'prevented Marlborough from raak ing Waterloo -as memorable on the 18th of August, doos, ns Wellington made it on the' ISth flay of Juno, 1815. The Dutch Gener al Slnngenborg delayed tho attack by his: outcries against the- plan of Marlborough, until tho sun was down ; and by the dawn of the following day the lines of the French were too strongly entrenched to be safely at tached. By the failure of our, troopsto ad vance, ns had boon expected, to tho attack on Bull Ron, on Friday, the 19th, instead of Sunday, tho 21st,' of,July, Johnston’s forces word able to come to tho aid of Beauregard, and wo were compelled to fall back and pro long vastly,tho war. It is a good rulo which has been laid down for the prosecution of war—“ Whatever yon do. as soon as you have made your plan and taken the decision to act upon it , act with the utmost speed, ,so that you may obtain your ob ject before tho enemy suspects what you aro about.” Such was the policy to which Na poleon was wpnt to adhere. It was a com mon saying, of his whon an olßcor asked for time to execute his, commands —“ Ask me for anything except for time.” As time is money in. the. offairs of life, so it. is power, it is, ordinarily, success in military movements. A military chief needs to be chary of days, or of hours, as. a miser isofhis dollars and cents, ;If lip knows hot howto value time,, let, him lead patient draught-horses on the tow-path of the canal,; but let him notuiiderfake to lead armies, and peril those vast interests that hang on their fate.' ’ ' , , These considerations props upon the popu lar mind at this junetiirevritli special force. Each day the sun is receding southward; and it is followed in its ejurso by the chilly blasts of winter from Alrtic regions. Memories; too, of the army floundering in the mud of; the last winter about Washington come back upon them. The spoil that bound them there was not broken till spring came on, making long months - of eager, impatient watching, which men bore as best they, might, but which they do not wish to have to endure again. All conspire in the wish that the lea ders of our furoOs will hold, time to bo pro elans, and in the desire that our forces may more southward with the southward tending; sun. . 1 , , , Hence the, deep aqil universal satisfaction with-which the;f hear,jtf the ami}' in motion, and the fervent and Ivvirt-fulfc “ God speed” • which they send aftocb;t. .They want proofs of vigor,.and carneatnres oh the .part .of its leaders, first, , in’ ordec, to win scoossos, and thftn, when successes are won, to make them decisive.- ■ We Hope Not.—We see it stated that the drafted men are to bo sent forward as rapidly as possible, “ to fill up old Regiments.” Wo hope there may bo Como mistake in this. Those drafted men have been torn from their homes and their families,.in many instances, under very distressing circumstances, and yet, being grouped together in companies, from the same neighborhoods and counties, they are are, to a certain extent, consoled by each other, and in case of need they can assist each other. But now, if they ore to he separated and scattered among strangers and in different.regiments, it will add largely to the hardships they must onduro at host. Wo think it would ho a much bettor plan to have tho old regiments consolidated, and the officers thrown out sent liopio on the recruit ing service, or, in some instances, pnt into the now regiments to drill and prepare tho drafted men for service. While on this snhjoet, wo way ask why it is that thousands and tens of thousands of those who have enlisted for throe years, and who have received large bounties, and have been drilling, for the last four or five months, are scattered all over tho North, passing their time in idleness ?Why are they told that they are to remain in .“ winter quarters,” hundreds of miles from the fields of battle? Why also, are regulars stationed in largo numbers, at all our military posts"? If the Government con afford to show favors to those in its service, it appears to ns the drafted men—hundreds of whom are literally ruined by leaving their homes at tills time should bo the favored.. They got no bounty, noroven blankets,.and not as much pay as regulars and onlistod'men. Ton per cent, of them are married men whose families cannot' well affprd to spore the husband and father. We hope ®bv. CuaijN will think of these things, and see to ■i it that the fovors of Government are ot least equally distributed. Lot the drafted men lie formed into regiments by themselves. | “We’be Coming, Father Abraham.” — Elections were held in nine Slates on Tues day, viz—Now Jersey, New York, Illinois, Michigan, Missouri, Massachusetts, Wiscon sin, Minnesota and Delaware.

One of tho expedients resorted to by tho Abolition traitors to prop up, thoir infamous cause during tlio lato political contest • was ahusß of Mr. Hogues, tlio able Chairman of tho'Democratic -’State 'Central Committee.— Never wosm man fjet tor abused. According to Aboßtion journals, ho was in" correspond-., ■onoo 'With -Jeep Davis," was a “ traitor,” a “ secessionist,” and indeed everything that Wits had. Tbeso journals did,not attempt to answer the Addresses issued by Mr. Hughes’ Committee, but they imagined they could break tho force of those powerful appeals by assaulting the Chairman of the Committee. — This was the understanding with them from one end of tire Stale to tho other, and every Abolition our was yelping at Mr. Hughes’- liools. The people at tho polls, have an swered* those hired slanderers. It appears they believed in the principles enunciated by tho Democratic State Central Committee, and did •nOt'bolrevO tho liars who wore engaged in rillifyiag Mr. Hughes. Pennsylvania has rebuked those infamous men; and Schuyl kill county, tho homo of Francis W. Hughes,- gives a Democratic majority of over 1,000 ! Mr. Hughes, therefore, stands vindicated, and his bools are bn. the necks of his tradueers; the principles he inculcated endorsed by a discriminating people, lie occupies a proud position, and it is quite probable, the people may call upon him to assume a responsible post in tho,councils of tho nation. Tlio Effctl of it. The effect produced in some quarters by oar late State election, says the Pittsburg Post, is truly marvelous. Chevalier Forney, for instance, who, until the votes were count ed and announced, imagined, that his mongrel party bad gained ri tremendous victory, is the most changed specimen of a dilapidated poli tician wo know of. Ho is of the shabby gen teel stylo, little bettor than Robert Maoalre. Before, the election bo'announced that , the President’s Emancipation Proclamation was to, be the “testof loyalty” to the government. On the evening of the election, I icing full of supper and exhilerating draughts, ho de clared that his party had carried, the State by fifty thousand majority, and in the ox- : überanoe of his joy proposed to substitute the John Brown fussy doggerel for the inspiring strains of the Star Spangled Banner; A> soon as the fever loft his brain the Chevalier began to realize the troth of the result of the contest; his fifty thousand majority were like Faktaffk antagonists, men in buckram. lie at once discovered the blunder bo had com muted’ during the canvass, and announced that “ citizens who had vpted the Democratic ticket must not bo called disloyal." In fact, the result of the election changed Forney’s tone entirely,and.should the conservatives in the different Stales voting on the 4tb of this month succeed; we would not be surprised to sec him whirl round and abuse the Aboli tionists as bo-used to, when'in the employ of tho “sage of Wheatland'.” The following extract frOm the Press does’nt look as if its author considers adherence to tho President’s proclamation a true test of loyalty; nor. docs it look as if ho was enthusiastic in his'desiro to have “ Hail Columbia ’’ furgotton, ih' the hope of substituting in its stead tlie crafey effuSion denominated “ Old John Brawn.”— Says the Chevalier: - “ The unii-slaoery- ultras, who, in order to. gei'rid of slavery, have always been ready'to yield up the Union. The question now to be met is whether the people of tho United States are ready to consent to the overthrow of tho republic, under the quadruple influ ence of foreign intervention, rebel force, sym pathizing intrigue and tile willingness of hu manitarian anti-slavery men to give up tho Union in order that wo may he out loose from slavery?" [TT” Tho Herald, in speaking of the recent raid upon our office, volunteers Its advice to us. It says: “ Evil doings are often not without good results, and our best wishes are that this affair may have tho offset of so changing tho spirit and tone of the Volunteer, ns to give its enemies no further cause of complaint, and its friends no reason to blush at its disloyalty.” Well, as the crew about tho Herald im our « enemies,” wo invito them to visit our office unco a week (in day-light hereafter, if you please,) so that wo may submit the “ spirit” of our editorials to their inspection.

Thostatemont that there is a scarcity of work men in the Coal mines of Pennsylvania,'has no foundation in truth so far ns SohuylkiilCaan ty is concerned, and has only been gotten up by tho Abolitionists to cover their design, to supplant white labor by the employment of negroes, Tho white men are Democrats— vote 'the Democratic ticket, and henoo the anxiety of the abolitionists to throw them out of employment, and compel them-to leave the County. Before the Democrats con bo disr Charged, it is necessary to have on hand a largo number of negroes to fill their places, or the mines will stop and the Government bo in want of Coal.

The AjiotmoN Funeral DmuE.— -On the night of the election, when tho success of the Abolition ticket in Philadelphia had deluded poor John Poenev into the belief that the Abolitionists had carried Pennsylvania by “fifty thousand majority”.(as ho claimed it,) lie grow so enthusiastic over a serenade that was given him, that he called on tho band to, play “that grand National Song entitled “John Brown's Body lies mouldering in the Gravel” Tho Band responded, and poor Poa ,vbt—if report speaks truth—joined lustily in the chorus. Littlo'did he think that ho was chanting the funeral dirge of Abolitionism I But so it was. Tho 50,000 majority didn’t hold out, and good old Pennsylvania turned tip on tlio Democratic side to tho tune of 3,- 3001 "flail Columbia” and “ Tho-Star Span gled Banner” are still the fittres “Americans delight'in.” . ' • “ Traitors’ in our Midst.”—Now that the elections in the States which voted Oct. 14th, show that; according to Abolitionism, a ma jority of their citizens are “traitors” to their Government, we propose that ail snch should he prevented from serving in the army here after. Wo also propose that those in the army, officers and privates, be immediately dismissed, and their places filled by “true men,” which* in AbolUion slang, means Abo litionists. Having sent about “ nine-tenths” of those in the field, our opponents should send the other tenth, 'and not htiva oiir cause hampered by “armed traitors” in the;field. Lot McClellan, Halleck, Buell, McCail, Cor coran, Meagher, and the hundreds of other Democratic “traitors” bo dismissed, .and their, places given to Fremont, Greeley, For ney, Sumner, and other “ loyal men." Until this is done, there can be no hope for the suc cess of our arms—that is according to Aboli tion teaching. _ JDSSf The Easton .Argus says, “ It is a sin gular but not unnatural fact that every coun ty. that was tory in the Revolution, such as Lancaster, Chester. Delaware, &c„ are aboli tion now. Oh ! the contrary,' every county that warmly sustained the patriotDanse in the revolution, now upholds the Democratic party. The descendants of the men, who under the infamous rule of bid John Adams, supported the-despotism, alien and sedition laws, gag laws, stamp and window taxes, .imprisomont of Democrats, and all other obnoxious mea sures of that odious administration, now sus tain all the obnoxious measures of the present Administration, including negro prnclnma- tions, Fort Lafayette and all. Thera’s a groat deal in the Wood and breed of men. Men whose fathers were .lories in revolutiona ry days never grow up Democrats.” Mr. Hughes “ at Home.” —The Democrat do citizens of Pottsville have resolved to testi fy their appreciation of their eminent follow townsman, tho lion. Francis W. Hughes, by presenting biro with a handsome silver ser vice. A largo meeting was held on the sub ject, on the evening of tho 18th ult., and the accessary preliminary arrangements were made.' In order to give all an opportunity to contribute, the subscriptions wore limited to one dollar each, • The vote of Schuylkill county is something for Mr. Hughes and his friends to be proud of, especially when tho energetic attempts to in jure him, and through him, his party are considered, and it is at the same timea burn ing rebuke to Messrs. Looser, Tower, Camp bell and others, who stooped- to unworthy means to injure him. The Democratic ma jority in Schuylkill is 1614. This is a gain of 1857 over Poster’s vote. ' Tub Renegades Rewarded. —The rene gade John Rowe, late,Speaker of the House, has been elected to stay at home. The same is time of Ross, Chatham, and Btrsnv, all of whom opted with the Abolitionists last win-' ter, although , elected bs “ Union Democrats;” The Patriot and Union, speaking of the de feat of these renegades, says! “ Tho lesson will not be fruitless. With the stamp of opostaoy ilpon their foreheads, we shall see those traitors henceforward sink lower and lower in the estimation of honorable men of all parties.” And again: ‘‘They will share the fate of their loader, Forney, and become, if not wanderers, at least political vagabonds upon tho face of the earth, shunned and ab horred by all who have not fallen as low as themselves.” , Senator Foote, op Vermont. —The Hon.

[Cheers from tho radicals.] “ I repeat,” said ho, “J am for an Abolition War,” [Lend cheers-from llio saino quarter.] “ I mean, ■ gentlemen, that I am for the abolition of this rebellion.” [Not a choer from that side, but deafening applause generally.]' ’Republicanism is dead ondbumd in a [lack walnut coffip.- THE WAR NEW* IMPORTANT FROM SOUTH CAROLINA / ttack on the Charleston and Savan . nah Railroad.

In this attempt our forces were victorious. Having mot tlid enemy in large numbers they drove tjjem across the Poootaligo river. Out loss, however, was very severe. Our soldiers ' and sailors fought splendidly throughout, and our batteries wore worked with great skill and effect. Thc Union forces were under the command of Brigadier General J; M. Brannan, General terry, being second in command. The rebels were commanded by Colonel Walker until our arrival at Pocotalig'o Bridge, when Beau regard, who had just arrived from Charleston commanded the rebels in person. Fresli troops rapidly arriving from Charleston to re inforce the rebels, bur .troops were withdrawn in fine order, General Terry remaining on shore at Maekay’s Point until the last man had re embarked, when the buildings, which had been occupied byGhe rebel pickets, wore fired and destroyed. . Of the forces composing the expedition, wore the 47th Pennsylvania, commanded by Lieut. Col. G. W. Alexander, of Beading, Pa., tlie 55th Pennsylvania, Col. Richard White, and the 76th Pennsylvania,,Col Strawbridge. . Gen. Brammn’s Brigade was commanded on the field.by Col. T. H. Good, of the 47tK Pennsylvania. ■ If heavy losses may indicate gallantry, the palm may be given to Colonel Good’s noble , regiment, the Forty-seventh Pennsylvania Volunteers. Upon this .command the brunt of battle fell. Out of COO Who went into ac tion, nearly 150 were killed or Wourided[i of the Keystone troops did .splendidly, os dill the Connoctidut Volunteers, under,Chatfiold and Hawley. ; A company of the First Mass achusetts cavalry, which marched from Beau fort, to Broad river, arrived upon the ground, too late to participate in the notion. One of the number , was wounded,. The gunboat Marblehead, on which 230 of the Third Rhode Island were transported, got aground in Broad river, and those troops, in corisctjuence, did not got up in tiftlo to take part in the battle;, Company M. of that regiment, however, .was.' in the advance, under Captain Comstock.—V Its escape with the loss of hut two men is re markable. . .....

That party spirit against which all the groat and good men of old time warn ed tho citizens of the American Republic, but which humanity,-perhaps, mustfall into* has led us to an opening ot a campaign iff which one party without hesitation pronoun ces tho other traitorous and rebellious. This is tho highest fever of party spirit. It would lend at tho next step to battle for personal safety, since the party thus denouncing its opponents must .necessarily insist on tho pro priety of imprisoning and executing the trai tors, while the latter, if they believe them selves loyal, must necessarily demand that their trial be held in due form of Jaw, ana justify resistance to all attempts at executing them without regular process, conviction and 66nt6nco There stands the fact in tho history of America, that two great portions wore en gaged in civil war, and one of thoso portions being divided into two parties on the ques tions growing out of the war, one party pro nounces tho other a rebellious and traitorous party. - . But the next fact is more startling still.-y It appears at the election that the patty thus branded as traitors and rebels aw in a large, majority in the three great States of Penhsyl-, vnnia, Ohio and Indiana, and this, leads to. the belief that they will be in vastly larger majority in the Empire State. What, then, becomes of the parly which boasted its ley nltyand abused its opponents? Can a ma jority of the people of the United, States be, treasonable in a mere matter of opinion as to the, policy which should control the war i ~ Never was a more tremendous rebuke g>ycn, to the madness of Abolition radicalism than it has received in the result of thoso elections. Now, as heretofore, the Abolition leaders have endeavored to keep back all the real issues out of sight, and persuade the people that urn question before them was a question ot loya iy or treason. But with that issue offered py (lie radicals, the people have chosen tne siae which the politicians called treason, and t terrible truth stares thoso men in the 100 • that they have been tolling 'Europe and t ' South that a majority of the men o Northern States were actually in sympatny with treason I Fortunately tho world p no confidence in those Abolition slanderers.
