the militia act of 1558, Arms WI I he
- distributed to the organizations so to be
formed, agreeably to the provisions of
that act.
It is further recommended that, in or
der to give due opportunities for drill and
instruction, all places of business be clos
ed daily at three o'clock, P. M , so that
i persons employed therein 'may, after that
hour, be at' liberty to attend to their milita
ry duties.
The cheerful alacrity with which the
men ofPennsylvania,have hitherto given
themselves - to the service of the country
has pressed heavily on her military re
sources.. I am reluctant to ask her to as
sume fu'rther burdens ; but as their safe
ty rentiires that they should do so, it is
In their behalrthat I put fOrth the recom

DISLOYAL PRACTICEB.-WO have it
On good, authority that a prerninent
Republican in this borough- has been
writing letters to officers in the army
against.McClellan. We should like
to know if such practices are not the
worst kind of disloyalty: If they
'are persevered in we shall call the at
tipn of the .Secretary• of War to the
matter.

A severe fight took place on Fri
day and Saturday, the 29th and 30th
'ult., near Richmond, Ky., between
the forces Under. Gen. Nelson and the
rebels tinder Gen. Kirby Smith, In
which all the forces under the com
mand of Nelson were routed and com
pletely demoralized. .Nelson was se
verely but not dangerously wounded.
PARTICULARS, OP THE. Ficirr
On the afternoon of Friday, the enemy
under. Gen. Kirby Smith, .supposed, to be
12,000 to 14,000,strong, drove in our cav
alry, pickets, who were stationed out some
distant from camp, and the whole force
of Col. Mundy and Col. Metcalfe's caval.
ry retreated . to the camp line, about one
mile and a half from -Richmond.
General Manton, formerly Colonel of
the 10th Indiana, had the forces under
his command in the absence of General
Nelson, who was at Lexington, consisting
of th`O Itth, 16th, 66th, 69th, and 71st, In-
Ciiana, the 95th Ohio, and 18th Kentucky,
and tlict cavalry of Colonels Mundy
and Metcalfe, formed in line of battle,
and advanced a mile and a half on the
road, when we came in sight of the ene
'ma's eatialryibreaddeg oil' to the left of the
road. We there formed in line of battle
with the artillery, which consi-ted of five
pieces in position. The pieces were at
once unlimbered,." , and
: after throwing a
few shells, the enemy retreated rapidly.
We captured one piece of artillery„ and
.a, number 4.601Vt4. and 0 - ..c94( 1 0 1 .eP4-
We thus advanced up the road after
them to RogeraVille; and there bivouack
ed for the night. • -
. Metcalfe s cavalry were sent out to. see
how far :the enemy had:gone, !and came
up with them seven miles.distant:' They
were in force, and oiir cavalry. were fired
into by them, when they, 'returned.
1" The next morning. (Saturday), between
five, and six , o'cinck, Genklanson stalled
ahead- with two. regimenfa and four pie
ces of artillery...: After proceeding a short
distance, we : saw some of the- enemy's
,cavalry.coming. toward. us, on a--scouting
'expedition. to•the right of.the .road,. and
after- advanciega short distance we : were
opened ttpori,by their artillery. We form
ed in line of- battle,: and had an artillery
fight which lasted-for an hour : or mere.—
We now found the enemy attempting to
...tur.tA,our left flank, when sharp firing took

After some, heavy firing they turned
our left flank,und advanced .on us with
a large ferce. We then,reireated between
two and 'three miles, and re r formed in line
:of battle on some, high hills with the ar
tillery on the right . and left flanks, when
the firing from the artillery commenced
.on both, sides and . was kept up for sever

The lieb,els- Attack
,our Left : Wing =
They Were Foiled.,
On Monday afternoon, Sept. 1, about
4 n'clock, 1 3 .:1.11., an attack was made
on our forces at. Fairfax; but the en
emy was driven back by . Gen.:lie:tr.
ney's -brigade: The. firing, says our
informant,.,l.vas heavy, though princi
pally of musketry, an&continued , for
some time. What were the casual
ties he could not tell, tho' he thought.
the enemy's loss .was heavy.. He re
ports General. IsaaeJ Stevens as kill
ed. Tht object of the enemy was to
cut offsmr source of. supplies, andlo
get between this city and: our lines,
and thus do all the damage in his
power by a raid of cavalry.. In this
he was foiled.
As we now write wo learn t at the
fight is renewed and is now progress
ing. We shall .probably have some
further details before we go to press.
Stewart's cavalry made a raid on
Tuesday, about seven o'clock, A. M.,
to the left, of Fairfax Court House,
and carried.off about one hundred of
our. wagongt. We asked
. our inform
ant whether our trains were seffli
ciently guarded. He remarked : sig
nificantly that our folks were not ex
pecting the ,raid, ,Of course not. It
was the, opinion of this •gentleman
that there had .been no fighting on
Tuesday, but others affirm that heavy
cannonading was heard after 2 o'clock,

the:following particulars of the late
actions in front:
About half paSt four o'clock on
Monday afternoon it was discovered
that a cavalry force had made its way
around In the rear of Pope's army,
when it made a dash at Gen. Reno's
force guarding,the wagon trains, for
the purpose, it. is supposed, of cupthr
.ing the supply train, which contained
provisions and timmunition,: of which
the rebels stand sorely in.need. For-
scoveied • ,n tunately they were dißea

over to drive the rebels back.

Congress, by a vote nearly unanimous, passed
the following resolution, which expresses. the
voice of the Nation and is the true standard of
loyalty :
"That the present deplorable civil war has been •
forced upon the eauntry by the disuctionista of
the Southern States, now, in arms against the
Constitutional Government, and in arms around'
the Capital; that in this National emergency,
Congress, banishing all - feeling of mere passion
or resentment, will recollect only its duty_ to the
whole country; that this war is not waged on
their part in any spiritrof oppression, or for any
purpose of conquest or subjugation nr purpose of
overthrowing or interfering with the rights or
established institutions of those States, but to de
fend and maintain the supremacy of the Corlett
totion, and to preserve the Union, with alt the
dignity, equality, and rights of the several States
