HEADQUARTERS, 'DEPARTMENT OF VIRGINIA,
FORTRESS MONROE, JIM! 10,1:861.
To LIEUTENANT GENERAL SCOTT Veneral:
'Havinglearned that the eriemy had established
I:an ontpostlof some strength at a place -called
• :little lilethel, a sroaWohnroh, .about eight
Miles from Newport News, and the same dis
lance from Hampton, from whence they were
- accustomed nightly to advane both on Newport
News and the picket guards of Hampton to
annoy them, and also -from whence they had
come down in small squads of cavalry and
.taken a number of Union, men, some of whom
had thessafeguard and protection of the troops
of:the United States, and forged them into the
rebel ranks, and that they were also gathering
up the slaves of citizens who had "moved away
. and left their farms in-charge of their negroes,
carrying them to work in antrenohments at
Williamsburg and Yerktoarti, I had determined
to send up a force to drive them back and des
troy their camp, the headquarters of which
was this small church. [) had also learned
that at a place a short distance farther pn, the
road to Yorktown, was an_oatwork of the reb
els, on the Hampton side of a place called Big
Bethel, a large church, near the head of the
north branch of Back river, -and that here was
a very considerable rendezvous, with works
of more or less strength in progress of erection,
and from this point the whole country • was
laid under contribution. -
Accordingly I ordered General Pierce, who
is in command of Camp Hamilton, at Hamp
ton, to send Durvea's regiment of Z tuaves to
be ferried over Hampton creek at one o'clock
this morning, and to march by the road up to
Newmarket bridge, then crossing the bridge,
to go by a by-road, and - thus put the regiment
in the rear of the enemy, and between Big
Bethel and Little Bethel, in part for the pur
pose of cutting him off, and then to make an
attack upon Little Bethel. I directed Gen.
Pierce to support him from Hampton with Col.
Townsend's regiment, with two mounted how
itzers, and to march about an hour later. At
- the same time I directed Colonel Phelps,
commanding at Newport News, to send out a
battalion, composed of such companies of the
regiments under his command as he thought
best, under command of Lieutenant. Colonel
Washburn, in time to make a demonstration
anon Little Bethel in front,,and to have him
supported by Colonel Bendix's regiment, with
two field pieces. Bendix's and Townsend's
regiments should effect a junction at a fork of
the road leading from Hampton to Newport
News, something like a-mile and a half from
• Little Bethel. I directed the march to he so
timed that the attack should be made just at
daybreak, and that after the attack was made
upon Little Bethel, Duryea's regiment and a
regiment from Newport News should follow
immediately upon the heels of the fugitives, if
they were enabled to cut them off, and attack
the battery on the road to Big Bethel, while
covered by the fugitives : or, if it was thought
expedient by General Pierce, failing to sur
prise the camp at Little Bethel, they should
attempt to take the work near Big Bethel.—
To prevent the possibility of mistake in the
darkness, I directed that no attack should' be
made until the watchword should be shouted
by the attacking regiment, and, in case that
by any mistake in the march the regiments
that were to make the junction should unex,
pettedly meet and be unknown to each other,
also directed that the members of Colonel
Townsend's regimens should be known, if in
daylight, by something white, worn on the
arm. The troops were accordingly put in
motion as ordered, and the march was so
timed, that Colonel Duryea bad got in the po
sition noted upon the accompanying sketch,
and Lieutenant-Colonel Washburn, in com
mand of the regiment from Newport News,
had got into the position indicated upon the
sketch and Colonel Bendix's regiment had
been posted and ordered to hold the fork of the
road, with two pieces of artillery, and Colonel
Townsend's regiment had got into the place
indicated just behind, and were about to form
a junction as the day d •wned.
Up to this point the plan had been vigor
ously, accurately and successfully carried out;
but here, by some strange fatuity, and as yet
unexplained bltinder, without any word of no
tics, while Colonel Townsend was in column
en route, and when the head of the column was
within one hundred yards, Col. Bendix's reg
iment opened fire with both artillery and
musketry upon Col. To wnsend's column, which,
in the hurry and confusion, was irregularly
returned by some of Col. Townsend's men,
who feared that they had fallen into an am
buscade. Col. Townsend's column immedi
ately retreated to the eminence near by, and
were not pursued by Col. Bendix's men. By
this almost criminal blunder two meu of Col.
Townsend's regiment were killed, and eight
more or less wounded.
Hearing this cannonading and firing in his
rear, Lieutenant'Colonel Washburn, not know
ing but that his communication might be cut
off immediately reversed his march, as did
Colonel Duryea, and marched back to form a
junction with his reserves.
General Pierce, who was with Col. Town
send's regiment, fearing that
. the enemy had
got notice of our approach, and had posted
himself in force on the line of march, and not
getting any communication from Colonel Du
ryea, sent back to me for reinforcements, and
I immediately ordered Colonel Allen's regiment
to be put in motion, and they reached Hamp
ton about seven o'clock. In the meantime the
true state of facts having been ascertained by
General Pierce, the regiments effected a junc
tion, and resumed the line of march. At the
moment of the firing of Colonel Bendix, Col.
Duryea had surprised a part of an ,outlaying
guard of the enemy, consisting of thirty per
sons, who had been brought into me.
Of coarse by this firing all hopes of a
surprise above the camp at Late - Bethel was
lost, and, upon marching upon it, it was found
Ito have been vacated, and the cavalry had
Pressed on toward Big Bethel. Colonel Duryea,
however, destroyed the camp at Little Bethel
and advanced. General Pierce then, as he
informs me, with the advice of his Colonels,
thought best to attempt to carry the works of
the enemy at Big Bethel, and made dispositions
to that effect. The attack commenced, as I
am informed—for I have not received any
official reports—about half past nine o'clock.
At about ten o'clock General Pierce sent a
note to me saying that there was a sharp
engagement with the enemy, and that he
thought he should be able to maintain his po
sition until reinforcements could come up.—
Acting upon this information, Colonel Carr's
regiment, which had been ordered in the morn
ing to proceed as far as Newmarket Bridge
was allowed to go forward. I received this
information, for which I had sent a special
messenger, about twelve o'clock. I immedi
ately made disposition from Newport News to
have Col. Phelps, from the four regiments
there, forward aid if necessary. As soon as
these orders could be sent forward I repaired
to Hampton, for the purpose of having proper
ambulances and wagons for the sick and
wounded, intending to go forward and join the
•command. While the wagons were going
forward a messenger came, announcing that
the engagement had terminated, and that the
troops were retiring in good order to camp,—
/ remained upon the ground at Hampton,
personally seeing the wounded put in boats
and towed round to the hospital, and ordering
forward Lieutenant Morris, with two boat
howitzers, to cover the rear of the returning
column in case it should be attacked. Having
been informed that the ammunition of the
Artillery had been expended, and seeing the
bead of the column approach Hampton in
good order, I waited for Gen. Pierce to come
up. lam informed by him that the dead and
wounded had all been brought off, that the
return had been conducted in good order and
without haste. I learned from him that the
men behaved with great steadiness, with the
exception of some few instances, and that the
attack was made with propriety, vigor and
courage, but that the enemy were found to be
supported by a battery, variously estimated
at from fifteen to twenty pieces, some of which
were rifled cannon, which were very well
served, and protected from being readily
turned by a Creek in front,
Our loss is very considerable, amounting
perhaps to forty or fifty, a quarter part of
which you will see-was from the unfortunate
mistake—to call it by no worse name—of Col.
Bendix.
I will, as soon as official returns Can be got,
give a fuller detail of the affair, and will Only
add now that we have to regret especially the
death of Lieut. Greble, of the Second artillery,
who went out with Col. Washburn, from New
port News, and who very efficiently and
gallantly fought his piece until he was struck
by a cannon shot. I will endeavor to get
accurate statements to forward by the next
mail. I thick in the unfortunate combination
of circumstances, and the result which we
experienced, we have gained more than we
have lost. Our troops have learned to have
4onfidenoe in themselves under fire, the enemy
have shown 'they will not meet us in the open
field, and our officers have learned *herein
their organization and drill are inefficient.
While waiting for the offioial reports, I have
the honor to submit thus far the information
of which lam possessed. I have the honor
to be,
Most respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
%LT. F. BUTLER, Major General commanding
SECESSION IN MISSOURI.
PROCLAMATION. OP TUE GOVERNOR OF MISSOURI
-50,000 VOLUNTEERS CALLED "FOR TO RESIST
TER U. S. TROOPS.
ST. Louts, June 13.
Governor Jackson has issued a proclamation
rehearsing the so called grievances inflicted by
the Federal Government, which he says are
designed to reduced Missouri to the same con.
dition as Maryland. He accuses the Federal
authorities of fostering, the inauguration of
revolution and civil war for the overthrow of
the State Government, and calls 50,000 State
Militia into active service for the protection of
the lives, liberty, and property of the citizens.
The proclamation concludes thus:
In issuing this proclamation, I hold it to be
my solemn duty to remind you that Missouri
is still in the United States; that the Execu
tive Department of the State Government does
not arrogate to itself the power to disturb that
relation ; that power has been wisely vested
in a Convention which will at the proper time
express your sovereign will ; and that in the
meantime it is your duty to obey all the Con
stitutional requirements of the Federal Gov,
ernment, bat it is equally my duty to advise
you that your first allegiance is due to your
own State, and that you are under no obliga-
tion to obey the unconstitutional edicts of the
military despotism which has introduced itself
at Washington, nor to submit to the infamous
and degrading sway"of its minions in this
State. No brave and true hearted Missourian
will obey one or submit to the other. Rise
then and drive back the ignominious invaders
who have dared to desecrate the soil which
your labors have made fruitful, and which is
consecrated by your homes.
HERMANN, June 13.
The State troops have erected a battery
below the mouth of the Osage river. Reports
from Jefferson City state that State troops are
concentrating there and that 1,100 are on the
road from Salina and 500 from Cooper county.
IMPORTANT FROM HARPER'S FER
RY.
FREDERICK, MD.. Jane 14.
It is here reported, upon the authority of a
messenger who arrived here this morning
within one mile of Harper's Ferry, that the
bridge across the Potomac at that point was
blown up and entirely destroyed between 4
and 5 o'clock this morning. The explosion
was distinctly heard, and the smoke of the
burning structure seen by parties here.
The messenger further reports that all the
troops have been withdrawn from the Mary
land shore, and that the town of Harper's
Ferry has been evacuated by the great body
of troops recently there. A small force is yet
there, probably the rear guard of the retreat
ing army.
It is reported that eight car loads of provi
sions were destroyed to prevent their falling
into the hands of the Federalists, who are
supposed to be concentrating upon Harper's
Ferry from the directions of Greencastle and
Cumberland.
The wife and family of General Hager were
at the Ferry last night, and had engaged a
private conveyance from this city to take them
to a point further southward, but were com
pelled to accompany the column by its sudden
flight.
The destruction of the brigade may be re
garded as certain, confirmatory intelligence
of the fact has been received here within a few
minutes. A gentleman from this city, who
was at Harper's Ferry last night, saw the prep.
arations being made for the blowing up of the
structure.
The bridge at ShefiEerdstown was also burn
ast night.
TELE PENNSYLVANIA RAILROAD.—An interes
ting digest of the sources of revenue of the
Pennsylvania Railroad company for the year
eighteen hundred and sixty, showing a most
satisfactory increase of the :on' freight busi
ness as compared with the same sources of
revenue in 1859. appears in the last number
of the Mining Register. From it we gather
the fact that the total earnings of the road for
1.60 was $5 932,701. against $5,362,356 in
1859. an increase of $570,346, or a sum equal
to $47, 528 per month for the year round.—
the Register says : "The freight earnings ex
teed the passenger earnings largely, more than
two to one.—The Pennsylvania Railroad,
therefore, is most distinguished for its freight
business, for the part it performs in the com
merce of the country as a carrier of produce
from 'the interior to the seaboard, and of
merchandise from the seaboard to the inte
rior.',
A WOMAN'S WRONGS REVENGED.—The Ely—
ria (Ohio) Democrat of the sth inst. gives an
account of a sad affair in Columbia on the
Thursday previous
Miss Sabin charged the paternity of her
child on James Van Dorn. Since she became
a mother no opportunity had offered for seeing
Van Dorn, until at a religious meeting on the
evening of the said Thursday. At the close of
the service Miss Sabin approached him with
the child in her arms, and after a brief con—
versation asked the privilege of a private
interview. He replied that he bad no time to
talk with her then, and, in company with his
sister and one or two other young ladies,
started towards home. While on the way,
Miss Sabin, who bad followed them, came up
behind them, and with a single stroke with a
razor, inflicted a ghastly wound on the back
of his neck, almost severing the large cords.
The wounded man was conveyed to his father's
house, and Miss Sabin was arrested the same
evening, charged with an assault with intent
to kill, and taken before G. W. Weeden, Esq.,
who fully committed her for trial. On Friday
she was brought to jail, but was immediately
released on bail. Mr. Van Dorn is doing well,
but will, it is feared, have a stiff neck the
remainder of his days.
lIEALTII OF GEN. SCOTT.-A corresponden .
of the Boston Advertiser writes from Wnshing
• -
On Sunday I had the pleasureof an interview
in company with a friend, with General Scott.
So much has been said of his health that I am
happy to be able to speak authoritatively upon
the subject. Our interview was of at least an
hour, and in the course of it I said to him that
everybody felt a deep interest in his preserva
tion, and I begged to know what I might
report when I reached home, as to his health.
He said that some time ago he received a fall
in passing down a stairway, by which his limbs
were partially paralyzed by a blow upon his
spine, and that he rose or walked with some
little difficulty ; but that' besides that, his
health was excellent. And I can add that if
a free, brisk, unembarrassed conversation of an
hour, upon a great variety of topics, can fur—
nish any test of quickness and vigor of intellect,
the country has no cause to apprehend that
the General is not as capable to plan and car
ry out a campaign as when he started on his
memorable march from Vera Cruz to Mexico.
POLICY OP GEN. SCOTT.
The experienced veteran, who directs and
controls the military movements of the day,
said to a confidential friend, within a few
days, that peace would be restored to the
whole country and the country restored to its
legitimate proportions by the return of May
month in 1862. His movements now in re
gard to Virginia evidently indicate a grand
coup de grace that will decide the supremacy
of military power in that State. The advance
of troops from three or more points upon
Harper's Ferry, the complete preparation of
Gen. Butler's column to make an advance
upon Norfolk, and General McDowell's column
now prepared for advancing upon Manassas
Junction, suggests a grand simultaneous move
ment upon those important points, that will
decide the supremacy and control in that
State.
THE TENNESSEE ELECTION.
The vote on the adoption or rejection of the
Secession Ordinance took place in Tennessee
on Saturday week. At Nashville the vote
for separation and representation was 3,093;
against it, 249. Eleven other districts in the
county gave 2,393 for separation and repre
sentation, and 88 against it. In Memphis the
vote stood 5,608 for separation, 4 for no rep
resentation, and 5 for Union. A dispatch
from Nashville states that the interior, as far
as beard from, is nearly unanimous, and the
State is largely for Secession.
,r,
-- _
MARYLAND TOR; uN10N.1.5 15 believ ed
that the majority for the Union in Maryland
is not less than 50,000. In three of the
there were no disunion candidates, and conse
quently those who had secession proclivities
did not vote; but, on the other hand, the can
didates in the districts where there was opposi-
tion to the Union nominees . were not avowed .
secessionists ; so that there can no longer be
any doubt that- a very large majority of the
people of that State desire to remain citizens of
the-United States, and are willing to yield
obedience to the Constitution and the laws.—
Maryland, therefore, should no longer be re
garded as adoubtful or neutral State, but fully
committed in her allegiance to the national
Government.
Hoaatins BIACHERY.—The Indians lately
perpetrated a horrible massacre near Ste i n 's
Peak, Arizona. There were two -Americans
killed, and seven more are missing. The
bodies of two men were found, tied by the feet
to trees, their heads reaching within eighteen
inches of the ground, their arms extended and
fastened to pickets, and the evidences of a
slow fire under their heads. The bodies bad
been pierced with arrows and lances. They
were so disfigured as to render recognition
impossible.
A BRILLIANT EXPLOIT.
CHAMBERSBURG, June 13.—Under instruc
tions from Maj. General Patterson, Col. Lewis
Wallace with his regithent of Indiana volun
teers left Cumberland on the- 11th inst., for
RAmney, Virginia, where he- surprised and
after a sharp fight, completely routed five
hundred Secession troops, capturing some
prisoners, killing two, and wounding one, and
taking first class camp equipage, provisions,
medical stores, arms, &c. On our side one
was slightly wounded. The regiment returned
to Cumberland the same day. .
REFUSAL TO WITHDRAW THE FED.
ERAL 'iROOPS FROM. MISSOURI.
ST. Louts, June 11.—Another conference
has been held in this city, between the State
and Federal authorities. The State was rep
resented by Gov. Jackson. and Major General
Price, and the Federal Government by General
Lyon and Col. Blair. The State authorities
demanded the removal or disbandment of the
Federal troops from Missouri soil, and the
State would disband the militia. Gen. Lyon
refused to do this, and the conference, after a
few hours' session, broke up without coming
to a pacific conclusion.
Governor Jackson and General Price re
urned to Jefferson City by special train
o-nigbt.
GENERAL PIERCE.—Gen. PIERCE, who com•
manded the expedition to Great Bethel, is a
citizen of Massachusetts, and held a military
command in that State in the militia. Many
persons suppose that General Franklin Pierce,
ex President of the United States, is the person
alluded to, but the ex President is a New
Hampshire man, and is not in the army.
GOOD NEWS FOR TUE POOR I-It is stated
that a committee of New York merchants, to
whom Mr. Chase, Secretary of the Treasury,
referred for advice on' the revision of the tariff,
have recommended a duty on tea, both black
and green, of ten cents per pound ; on coffee
three cents per pound, and on sugar two and
a half cents per pound—and it is very gener—
ally believed in mercantile circles that this
revised tariff will go into effect on the Ist of
August next.
A FUND FOR MR. DOUGLAS' FAMILY.—The
Chicago papers publish t.n address to the peo—
ple of the United States, but more particularly
of Illinois, setting forth the fact that Mr. Doug.
las died leaving no foot of earth on which his
family can reside and call their own. His
widow has given to the State the three acre lot
as a resting place for the remains of her hus—
band. The address invites voluntary contribu—
tions to a fund to be administered by trustees
to provide a home for the widow and children
of Mr. Douglas.
Ste - Ge n . GEORGE M. KEIM, a prominent
and influential citizen of Reading, died, after
a brief illness, in that city, on the 10th Inst.,
aged 57 years.

44-Something for the Ladies.. -A new
Invention has recently appeared, which, although useful to
every body, is specially claimed by the Ladies, as being
exactly suited to their wants and requirements. They are
delighted with Spalding's Prepared Glue. It brings up no
disagreeable associations of sticky glue pole and stifling
odors, but is merely a clear transparent liquid, in a pretty
little bottle, with a small accompanying brush, fit to stand
on the daintiest toilet table in the land, with cologne and
Perfumes and Chins trifles. And so useful it proves, too,
if any accident happens to the ten thousand little knick
knacks that ladies delight in. No sending to the manu
facturer for repairs, at an expense scarcely less than would
attend the purchase of a new article. A few of the crystal
drops, skillfully applied by fair fingers, will set all right.
Per furniture, for work-boxes, for books, for awry thing, it
is a perfect little family physician I The amount of money
that one of these bottles can save in a month, would seem
almost incredible, and Ladles rely on their Prepared Glue
as a sort of a magician that can effect every thing I And
they know, too. When any article of domestic reform
meets the enthusiastic sanction at their hands that
Spalding's Prepared Glue has received, you may be pretty
sure it is something worth having on your closet shelf I

A NEW DEMOCRATIC MORNING PAPER
"THE UNION."
With a view to meet a universally admitted want, the
undersigned will issue on Monday, the let of July next, a
Morning Penny Paper, to be called "THE UNION."
The great mission of the Democratili , Party, which has
ever stood as the bulwark of the Union and the Champion
of the Constitution, renders its entire unity and bold atti.
tude in this hour of National peril a matter of vital con
cern. The pending struggle hi not less for the maintenance
of a United Country than for the Perpetuation of Demo-
cratic Principles, as expounded by Jefferson and Jackson.
The most momentous results hang upon the issue. Mere
party queations are for the time by common content ad
journed. The past is dead, save in its lemons of experience.
The Democratic hosts have not shrunk from their full
share in the responsibilities and dangers of the emergency.
They have rallied with one accord around the standard of
our common country. But the occasion imposes other
duties. The Government will demand and receive the
willing support of every patriot, in its efforts to vindicate
the National honor and re -assert the National authority;
but the Preservation of Constitutional Liberty rests more
with the people than with Congress and Cabinets. Vigilance
and Unity are therefore specially requisite in the present
juncture.
It is the purpose 'of the Proprietors to make "THE
UNION," in every respect a firetclass Journal. The
Democracy of the whole State feel the need of a bold and
vigorous Metropolitans:tally ; and no effort will be spared
to render "THE UNION" both popular and and efficient
as a newspaper, and as a fearless exponent of the great
principles for which the Democratic party have ever con
tended, and which are now so unhappily imperilled.
The Proprietors have perfected such arrangements as
will place the enterprise, from the beginning, upon a sub.
stantial business basis, with abundant means to make a
Newspaper second in interest and ability to no other in the
city; and while the paper will be fearlessly Democratic, it
will sedulously avoid all faction, as the deadliest bane to
party efficiency.
We look to the DEMOCRATIC MASSES for support, and
shall labor to make "THE UNION" In every way worthy
their confidence and liberal patronage, as a fresh, readable
and fearless Journal.

Syphilis and Mercurial Disease.
NEW 01ILEANS, 25th August, 1859.
Da. J. C. AYER : Sir, I cheerfully comply with the te.
quest of your agent, and report to you some of the effects
I have realized with your Sarsaparilla.
I have cured with it, in my practice, most of the cows
plait, to for which it is recommended, and have found Its
effects truly wonderful in the cure of Venereal and Mer
curial Disease. One of my patients had Syphilitic ulcers
in his throat, which were consuming his palate and the
top of his mouth.. Your. Sarsaparilla, steadily taken.
cured him in live weeks. Another was attacked by sec-
ondary symptoms in his nose. and the ulceration hakd
oaten away a comiderable part of it, so that I believe the
disorder would Neon reach his brain and kilt him. But It
yielded to my administration of your Sarsaparilla• the
ulcers healed. and he is well again, not of coufse without
some disfiguration to his face. A woman who had been
treated for the same disorder by mercury went suffering
from this poison in her bones. They had become so sea-
chive to the weather that on a damp day she suffered ex
cruciating pain in her joints and bones. She, too, was
cured en lively by your sarsaparilla in a few weeks. I
know from Its formula, width your agent gave me, that
this Preparation front your laboratory must he a great
remedy; consequently, these truly remarkable results
with it have not surprised me.
Fraternally . yours, G. V. L AMMER, M. D.

Da. J. C. Aeon: Sir, Ihave been afflicted with a pain.
fat chronic Rheumatism for a long time, which baffled the
skill of physicians, and stuck to me in spite of all the
remedies 1 could find, until I tried your Sarsaparilla. One
bottle cured me in two weeks, and restored my general
health so much that I am far better than before I was
attacked. 1 think it a wonderful medicine. J. PREAM.

afflicted fur years with an affection of the Liver, which
destroyed my heard,. I tried every thing, and every thing
failed to relieve tae; and I have been a brokemdown man
for some years from no other cause than derangement of
the Liver. My beloved pastor, the Rev. Mr. Espy, advised
me to try your Sarsmarilla, because lie sold he knew you,
and any thing you !mole was worth trying. By tile bless
