Particular Notice.
But one week elapses before THE
INTELLIGENCER passes into the hands
of the new firm. A goodly number
of persons indebted to the establish
ment for subscription, advertising,
&c., have paid their bills ; but a very
large portion of our patrons have
not yet thought of doing so. The
bills, therefore, of those indebted
: should be liquidated at once, as it is
absolutely necessary to settle the
books without unnecessary delay.
Nr- The proposition that L
made is accepted.
A. somewhat pointed and
truthful connnunication from " A

page, to which we invite the atten
tion of our readers.
Air There has been some skirm
ishing. between the forces of GRANT
and LICE south of the James River,
but no decisive battle had been
fought at the latest accounts. Peters
burg has not yet been taken. We
shall have stirring news, however,
before many days.
Presidential
Amongst the names which will
probably be presented to the Chicago
Convention for the Presidential nom
ination are the followimr, viz :
Gen. GEORGE B. 'MCCLELLAN, of
New York.
HORATIO SEYMOUR, of New York.
Judge NELSON, of New York.
FRANKLIN PIERCE, of New Hamp
shire.
THOMAS 11. SEYMOUR, Of Connec
ticut.
C. L. VALLANDIGHAM, of Ohio
And last, but by no means least,
GEORGE W. WOODWARD, of Penn-
sylvania.
The Convention cannot go far
astray in selecting either of these
distinguished gentlemen. They are
each and all sound Union, Constitu
tion loving men, and either, if elect
ed, would devote all his energies to
the salvation of the country, and to
bring back the Government to what
it was in the early days of the Re
public. But without disparagement
to the others, we cannot retrain from
saving that, in our humble opinion,
it it should be deemed best by the
Convention to ignore military quali
fications entirely, and select the
standard-bearer from among the dis
tinguished civilians of the coun,try,
then we know of no individual com
bining
more of the essential ele
ments of the great statesman than
Chief Justice WOODWARD. Able
and accomplished as a Jurist, pro
foundly versed in Constitutional law,
of unsullied personal and political
integrity, and withal possessed of
indomitable will and energy, he
would be the very man to take hold
of the helm at the present critical
time, and guide the Ship of State
with a steady hand amid the ter
rible breakers which surround it
through the incompetency and dis
honesty of the pres(•fit Administra
tion. This is our candid opinion,
after looking over the whole ground
and we give it to the public for whai
it is worth.
The Reserves.
The following is a record of the
engagements in which the Pennsyl
vania Reserves took a prominent
and efleetive part: Mechanicsville
and the remaining six days series of
battles in the summer of 1662 ; sec
ond battle of Bull Run, South Moun
tain, A ntietem, Fredericksburg,'
Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Bris
tow Station, Rappahannock Station,
New Hope Church, Mine Run, bat
tles of the Wilderness, Spottsylva
nia, and all the engagements of the
Fifth Army corps to the 31st of May,
1864, when they took up their line of
march for White House, where
they embarked for Washington on
the 3d of June and arrived home on
Tuesday last. Some thirty battles
in all. No body of troops have ever
seen more fighting, or as much hard
service in the.same length of time.
True as Preaching
A Republican 'exchange says the
politicians are trying to defeat the
people. That is true—the officers,
contractors, plunderers, and all the
vast hordes of paid pimps and lick
spittles who feed upon the treasury
of the Nation are trying to fasten
LINCOLN on the country for another
term.- of four years. The people,
however, who love liberty and have
to pay the money thus squandered
by these unprincipled bloodsuckers,
prefer a wise and Constitutional ad
ministration of the Government, and
will make their wishes known
through the ballot-box at the ensu
ing Presidential election.

The Wei.
It seems to be evident that Gen
eral Lee started as soon as General
Grant in the late movement from the
Chickahominy. Correspondents rep
resent that for two or three days be
fore Grant's march, there were un
mistakable evidences of the diminu
tion of the Confederate forces in the
Federal front. The number of camp
fires became smaller, the lines were
contracted, and the picket firing was
less frequent. By advices from
Southern sources it is certain now
that Lee knew that Grant contem
plated a movement. The Confed
erate forces at Bottom's Bridge were
strengthened to prevent a crossing
there. The long circuit of nearly
fifty miles, however, taken by Grant
to reach Bermuda Hundred, on
James River, but fifteen miles in a
direct line from Bottom's Bridge,
secured his safe march. He went
around White Oak 'Swamp, using it
as a barrier between him and the
enemy. As Grant moved on in
this circuit large bodies of Confeder
ates were stationed on the roads run
ning down the northern bank of the
James, to prevent an advance on
Richmond from that direction. The
main body, however, moved to
Richmond to await the development
of the march, and, as soon as it was
certainly ascertained that Grant in
tended to cross the James, they were
hurried towards Petersburg, twenty
miles distant. The Confederate rear
guard followed Grant some distance
down the Chickahominy, skirmish
ing with his cavalry. It captured
one hundred and fifty Federal pris-
oners.
General Smith's corps, from White
House, was the first part of Grant's
army which reached Bermuda Hun
dred. It arrived and landed on
Tuesday afternoon. At dusk Gen
eral Kautz, with the cavalry of But
ler's army, marched out of Bermuda
Hundred, crossed to the south bank
of the Appomattox, and took the
road 'towards Petersburg. At day
light on Wednesday morning Smith's
corps followed. The four corps of
Grant's army which traversed the
Peninsula began to cross the James
at Powhatan Point, sixteen miles
below Bermuda Hundred, on Tues
day afternoon. Two corps succeeded
in crossing by midnight. Hancock's
was one of them ; the other is not
known. Hancock at once marched
towards Petersburg. On Wednes
day the other corps had not yet come
nil; and on Wednesday night some
of the army was still at Powhatan
Point and had not crossed to the
south bank of the James. General
Kautz reached the vicinity of Peters
burg early on Wednesday morning.
'General Gillmore was relieved from
command the same day, and Gen
eral Butler placed at the head of his
corps. The fleet of commissary ves
sels from White House, also reached
the Month of the Appomattox and
began landing supplies.
On Wednesday morning Kautz
and Smith attacked the Confederate
entrenchments in front of Peters
burg. As this town is on the south
bank of the Appomattox, and of lit.
tle military value, the enemy at once
began to retreat across the river.—
Hancock joined Smith on Wednes
day afternoon, and at dark the en
trenchments around the town were
abandoned by the Confederates.—
Hancock and Smith entered them.
The rest of the army had not come
up. Petersburg appears to have
been abandoned on Thursday. Mr.
Stanton reports that thirteen cannon
and nearly four thousand prisoners
were captured in the outer entrench
ments. The Confederates confront

All their troops are there.
A few days ago we stated that the
Mississippi was blockaded. This
has since been contradicted on the
authority of a reported victory of
General A. J. Smith over General
Marmaduke, who commanded the
Confederate batteries. The truth
turns out, however, to be as we first
stated it. The Confederates block
aded the Mississippi about fifty miles
below the mouth of the Arkansas.
General A. J. Smith was sent to
drive them off He marched along
the western side of the Mississippi
and met the enemy's pickets. They
retreated before him to a stream
called Fish Bayou. Here they laid
an ambuscade for Smith. Ile fell
into the trap, and only escaped great
losses from a murderous fire by a
swift retreat. Ile returned up the
river to the place where he started
from, having lost one hundred and
twenty men, besides a number of
prisoners. The Mississippi blockade
is still maintained, and Admiral
Porter has been sent for to try and
break it.
The recent Confederate success,
' near Memphis, over Generals Sturgis
and Grierson, was gained by the
lbrce under General Forrest. His
official report states that he captured
one thousand prisoners, twenty can
non and two hundred and fifty
wagons. His loss in killed and
wounded was four hundred. Sturgis
and Grier - son have returned to Mem
phis with the remnant of their troops.
Fears are entertained for the safety
of the city. General Forrest will
not attack it, however. Having no
Federal forces now near him, he has
gone towards Chattanooga, and con
templates a raid on Sherman's com-
I
On Tuesday last everything was
quiet in front of Marietta, in Geor
gia. There had been rain for two
days, which made the roads impas
sable, and prevented movements by
either .Johnston or Sherman.
It is reported that the remnant of
the Banks' expedition, having been
reinforced by three thousand men
from New Orleans, have been taken
by General Canby from the mouth
of Red River to Port Hudson. This
evacuates all Western Louisiana.
Morgan has got safely out of Ken
tucky. Three hundred of his men
have crossed the Ohio to make a

PROCEEDINGS OP CONGRESS
In the Senate, on Wednesday, the bill to
prevent Fpeeulotive transactions in gold and
f reign exchange was taken up and pissed.
Mr. Powell, of Kentucky, moved to take up
the hill to prevent military interference in
elections in the States, but the moti in was
promptly rejected by a vote of 6 yeas to 26 nave.
Toe bill to repeal the Fugitive Slave law was
called up and referred to the Committee on
Slavery and Freedmen, and reported back im
mediately. Oij ation being made, the bill
went over under the rule. The bill to estab
lish a bureau of Freedmen's Affairs came up
in order. Mr. Saulsbury's amendment re
affirming in the language of the Constitution
the principles of liberty and the rights of
persons and property was rejected. Mr. Car
lisle's motion to postpone the bill until De
cember next was also rejected. The debate
was continued up to the hour of adj turn
merit.
In the House of Representatives, the dis
cussion of the resolution to amend the Con
stitution, so as,to abolish slavery, was re
sumed, and was debated until towards the
close of the session, when the question was
put to vote, and resulted in yeas 94, nays 65.
A two-thirds vote being required by the Con
stitution to carry a measure of the kind pro
posed. the resolution did not pass.
HOW THE MONEY GOES t
In some criminal proceedings recently in
stituted against the house of Schofield & Co.,
Government Contractors in New York, their
books were produced in Court to prove the
manner in which they did business. At four
different dates their bills exhibited the follow.
ing features :
May 26, 1803.
Original coat. $1426.75 Ch'd to Gov't. $6 784 00
Aug. 15.1863 $1 652.40 Ch'd to Gov't. $4 111.60
Sept 7, 1863, $ 825.00 Ch'd to Gov't. $1 601 25
Nov. 2, 1863, $ 80 00 Ch'd to Gov't. $ 050 50

Messrs. SCEIt3FIELD & Co., are staunch sup- ,
porters t.f the war—good '•loyai" patriots and
Union-Leaguers. The expose of their books
shows to the tax-payers how it is that so many i
Government contractors bscome suddenly
rich, and it also indicates why they are so
clamorous for a continuance of the war.
Never since time began, says an exchange,
was there such monstrous and unblushing
public robberies as are now going on under
the LINCILN administration, and all under
the pretence of carrying on the war fur the
restoration of the Uoion, when the fact is they
are destroying it beyond redemption. When
will the people get their eyes opened to the
terrible fate which awaits the country ?
_IIII'I IJ I 3! f15V.1 '1
On Thursday week, Mr. LANE, of Indiana,
s id in the Senate of the Uniied S:ates:
lie die-ented from his colleague (Mr. Hen

lie did so whether the vier lasted uue year,

This is the aocep . ed ductrine of the Lincoln
Abolitionists. 1 hese miserable fanatics do
nut want peace, on any terms, or under any
circumstances. As lung as they can rub and
, plunder the people, they desire a continuance
of the war, no matter if it lasts " a hundred
years." The ruin and misery in whit* our
unhappy country is plunged, are of small
m meat to them. The suffering and agony
of the masses occasion them no uneasiness.
As lung as the people will give their precious
lives and millions of money, they will protract
this deadly strife indefinitely, and make no
effort to stay the hand of the destroyer. This
is Lincoln Abolitionism I

The city of Alexandria, the most beautiful
town in Louisiana, was recently almost to
tally destroyed, having been set on fire by
the Union soldiers. Twenty-six squares were
burned, with most of the lacusehold furniture
that was in them. Several hundred families
were thus rendered houseless and homeless,
and are living in the streets under the shelter
of boughs and brushwood. Of course these
people will love the Union much better than
they did before they had their homes burned

rumors are current that soon after his arrival
he had takott the night train for Toledo, but
substtquently announced he would make a
public speech 0-morrow. There is considera
ble apprehension of trouble at Dayton, and
the people are much excited.
SPEECH OT MR VALLANDIGHAM
_
CINCINNATI. June 15.
Mr. Vallandigham made his appearance at 1
the Democratic District Convention held at ,
Hamilton to-day, to the apparent surprise of
a large portion of the assemblage. Ile was
received with great enthusiasm.
lle spoke briefly from a written document,
narrating 'lie arrest, and defending his action.
H, said the assertion of the President that he
was arrested because he labored with some
effect to prevent the raising of troops, and
enct uraged deserti me from the army, or had
disobeyed. or failed to counsel obedience to
lawful authority, was absolutely false. He
appealed for proof to every speech be had
made, and to the record of the military com
mission by the trial and sentence of which be
was banished. "The sole nffinee." he said.
" which was laid to my charg' was words of
criticism of the public poi* of 'he Adminis
tration, addr.'ssed to au open political meeting
of my fellow-citizens. For more than one
year no puhlio man has been arrested, no
newspaper has been suppressed within the
State for the expression of public opinion,
while hundreds in public assemblies, and
through the preen, with violence and threats,
in which I have never indulged. have criti
cised and condemned the acts and policy
of the Administration and denounced the war,
maintaining even the propriety t.f . rec , gnisting
the Southern Confederacy. I do not mean
any longer to be the only man of the party
who is to be the victim of this arbitrary p iwer.
If Abraham Lincoln seeks my life, let him a n
declare, but he shall not again restrain me of
my personal liberty except upon due process
of law: _ _ .
He denounced Order No. 38. under which
. .
he was arrested; and said it was against the
Constitution and the laws. and without I
tv. All proceedings under it were null and
void. " The time has arrived," be continued,
" when it becomes me, as a citizen of Ohio
and of the United States, to demand, and, by !
my own act, vindioate the rights, liberties. ,
and privileges which I never forfeited, but of
which for so many months I have been de—
prived." He reiterated his right to criticise
the acts of the Administration, and cautioned
his political friends to abstain from any acts !
of violence on his account, although he advis. ,
ed none to shrink . from any responsibility,
however urgent, it forced upon him.
Mr. Vallandigham was accompanied to the
! depot by an enthusiastic crowd, and arrived
, at Dayton to night, where it is understood he
will make a speech.
The Convention elected Mr. Vallandigham
a delegate to the Chicago Convention.
tor The State of Louisiana now rejoices or
might we nut more properly say suffers under
the rule of no less than three Governors ; two
" loyal"—General BANEA, Military Governor,
and MICHAEL HAHN, elected under Lincoln'4
amnesty Proclamation, and one " disloyal"
HENRY W. ALLEN, secessionist - . Just at
present, the authority of the last appears to
extend over the whole of the State outside of
the city of New Orleans, but exactly where
that of Banks ends and that of Hahn begins,
would puzzle a sage to decide. Can a State
have three Governors as the same time ?

Musks. Borrons: The nomination of Gen. Fre
mont came like a asap of thunder from a clear sky
to the ears of some of the leading Republicans of
this dietrict;—to others, who appreciate talent and
have become disgusted with the loose manner in
which the affairs of the g overnment arc conducted,
it was balled with j iy. They had long been think
ing that the party in power was not w eking for the
beet interests of the country ; but they had been
told, time and again, that the salvation of the
country depended on the success of the Republican
party ;.they had been told last fall to vote fur An
drew G. Curtin, and avoid the draft; bat to their
utter astonishment and surprise 700,000 men have
been called into the army sinoe that time, and we
have no reason to suppose it will stop at that.
Gen. Fremont has a great many warm friends in
this township in the Republican party. Many men
1 who supported Lincoln four years ago will cast their
votes fur John 0. Fremont at the November elec
tion ; and there are a number of Republicans who
will neither vote for Lincoln nor 'Fremont, but will
vote for Gen. McClellan, or any other good man
whom the Democrats choose to nominate. Tale dis
trict will give a plurality vote to the Democratic
candidate ter President. The Republican party in
this place is like greenbacks, at a discount—and
Democracy like gold. at a premium. Liberty is not
dead, and the Republican party will have yet to
answer for its miscouduot—such as the suppression
of Journals and military arrests. The Augean stable
will won be cleansed. Such gross acts of injustice
in a republican lona of government cannot pale un
noticed. The friends of Constitutional liberty are
on the alert—they are ever vigilant, and they will
present a broad phalanx this tall to the enemies of
republican government. Many men who voted
formerly with the opposition see that they are sap-
I ping at the foundation of our liberties, trying to
throw dust in the oyes of the people until they bind
them hand and foot ; and thousands who supported
the measures of the Republican party will rally
'round the flag of true Democracy. They see that
the vampire, are sucking the lice-blood of the na
tion, and growing fit on their famine. Y is, the
hand-wrding is already on the wall ; they may as
well prepare to meet their doom—they cannot vio
late the Constitution with impunity. Miscegena
tion, amalgamation and all opposition to freedom
will be buried so deep next November that it will
dad no resurrection. ft.

THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CON-
1111=112:1
The Chicago Times has a cut representing
the building in which the Democratic Na
tional Convention will be held in that city on
the 4.6 of July next. It is a temporary
edifice erected fur the occasion, and will be
the largest structure ever raised in Chicago.
The Times ease:
" The building will be of gigantic propor
tions. measuring 628 feet in,ciroumkvAece
and 200 feet in diameter, ani planned t titf,rd
ample room for 15 000 people. Externally
' there will be but little to Htt.n.et tie eye.—
The National colors dieptay,d in profusion
from the numerous staffs rising around the
roof will be the only ornamentutien
" The inoloeure of the immense amphi
theatre will be twenty-two fdet high. This
10t, at its highest or central p iint, will . he
elevated thirty seven feet above the ground.
It will slope gradually until it falls ti an
elevation of twenty.eighc feet.
" file roof is here broken for the purpose
of ventilation, the remaining part commenc
ing from a point four feet below the overlap
ping cornice, which forms the circumference
of the central or largest division of the build
ing, and from there sloping gradually to the
outer limits of the structure. Thecwhole will
be entirely covered with patent felt roofing,
so that even the continued recurrence of the
heaviest thunder shower will not interfere
with the comfort of the Convention."
The Chicagoians in this matter are display
ing an enterpr.se that rcLuts great credit
upon their public spirit.
"OLD ABE'S" LAST JOKE
When a committee of " Loyal Leaguers"
waited on the jocose occupant of the White
House, a few days ago, to congratulate him
on his renomination, he is reported to have
replied to their eJugratulations as follows:
'' I have not permitted myself, gen tlemep, to
conclude that I am the best man in the coun
try, but I am reminded in this connection of
a story of an old Dutch farmer, who remarked
to a companion once that it was not beet to
swap horses when crossing streams." Now,
this may be all true so far as swapping horses
is concerned, but, in our opinion, a man may
at any time, even in the middle of a stream,
trade off a worthless donkey for a good horse,
and not lose anything. In fact if the stream
were high the trade might be essential to the
saving of the man's lift.
"Tae COWARD."—With this taking and
somewhat threatening title, Messrs. 'P. B.
Peterson & Bros., Philadelphia, have now in
press the third of Mr. Henry Morford's series
of war novels, and will publish it about the
20th June. From the Icopularity of its pre
decessors, " Shoulder-Straps" and the " Days
of Shoddy," and the still broader field now
embraced, we predict sensation, on its pub
lication, yet more assured than that made by
either of the °there. " The Coward," as we
understand, does not deal with the war alone,
bat while it handles the aspects of eoeiety
and presents a story of great interest, the
ramifications of whioh range between the
saloon and the battle-deld, had some of its
leading events located amid the magnificent
scenery of the White Mountains, with sense
,
tion descriptions involved, making it that rare
combination—at once a " war novel " and a
" summer book" for tourists and watering
place habitues. It comes in good time fur
both purposes, and it will no doubt be aired
alike in the tents of the Union Army and the
j hotel parlors of the White Mountains,
Niagara and Saratoga.
BLA , Prilbs.o2ol.l
The Cincinnati Tit MU reports a speech de
livered by Camitms ANDLRSON, the Republican
Lieut. Governor of Oaio. at the reception of
the second Kentucky regiment, in Cincinnati
on the Bth inst., in which occurs the following
sentiment:
" Unfurling the tattered and bullet rent fltg
of the Second Kentucky. the speaker exclaim
ed, with emotion, L ',dies, behold the work
of your fair hands. See it, marred by ruth
less traitors. Oh the seamless coat of the
Saviour, as it came from the cross, rent by
spears and draggled in blood was not half so
beautiful as the stained and tattered unPrm
of the brave soldier who has defended that
. Pg."— [Cheers.]
Such blasphemy might be passed as the
ravings of a fanatical scoffer and atheist did
not the applause of his listeners show, alas,
too truly, that such atrocious sentiments are
congenial to many, very many who are now
ruling the country to its ruin.
!ULLA') BY LIGHTNING.—During the violent
thunder storm on Monday afternoon, as a son
of Mr. Jacob Oriesmer, of Oiey,Berks eJunty,
• as driving a four-horse team home from the
Mill, on the road near the Oley Churches,
three of the horses were struck by lightning
and killed. The fourth—the saddle horse, t n
which Mr. Grimier was riding—was stun
ned by the stroke, and fell upon his knees,
and the driver had scarcely dismounted, before
another flash came, and killed this horse also.
The rider, almost miraeulouely, escaped un—
hurt. There were no marks of the lightning
visible upon any of the horses. They were
valuable Wands, and Mr. Grimmer's loss
by their death is not trieing.-ileading Grameze.

THEO NEGGFLUI MULORiZ BID
Mr. KELLEY, of Philadelphia, in his speeoh in
Congress, thus euloglaad American oiciaans of
African descent:
" Mr. Speaker, the men of this era of whom
the poet will sing in highest strains, th 3 men
whom the orator will m ntt eulogize, the men
in this grand civil war of whom the historian
will write his most glowing panegyrics, are
the negro soldiers of the loyal army."
The white man must stand back hereafter
when the merit of this war is discussed. He
is a decided failure.
POPE Pll•$ IX
The failing health of Pius IX, and the issues
that await his demise. have excited a fresh in•
terest in the personal history of his holiness.
The following is from the &mama Liturgique,
of Portiere :
Pius IX.. now 72, is the youngest surviving
son of his family. Ile has still two brothers,
Count Gabriel and G Jetta, who are 84 and 80
years of age. His sister, the Countess Benigni,
is 77. His fattier. C any Jerome, died at 84,
and hie mother at 82 llis grandfather, Count
Ilericulem, lived to the age of DG The Masta
family is ever numerous. Th"S Pope's eldest
brother, Cl oint G ibriel, has two sons, nue of
whom is married to the Princess Del Drago,
the other to the niece of Cardinal Cadolini.
Count O'atan is a widower, and has no chil
dren. Llis deceased brother, Count Joseph,
who was a Captain in the g eidarme" y died
without issue ; but his four sisters, of whom
only one survives, have left a numerous pro
geny of ems and grandams. It moat be said,
to the honor of the Pontiff. that his brothers,
sisters and their descendants have not o 'et the
State a single penny. None of them have ever
been in Offi3e or employed in any mis+ion, so
that it cannot be said that the elevation of
Cardinal Mastai tl the supreme dignity has
made any addition to the fortunes of " his
family.
THE RICIEIT NAME AT LeST.—Up to the
present time, the A. lininivration presses,
Radical Abolition as well as in aerate R.-yob
bo iri, have cautiously styled " the present
deplorable civil war"—(se' unanimous
resolution of Congress, July 1861)—a war jor
the Union. N w, however, emboldened by
the assumed support of a large army, and the
patient submission of the people to the uncon
eti utional measures which have been enforced
by the authority Of Preside•otial Proclama
tions, they are throwing off the mask, and
beginning to call things by their right names.
The Philadelphia Bulletin ~f Thursday week,
speaks of "the present War of Emancipation."
If that had been the declared object of the
War, at the outset, how many supportere
would it have found ?
gar The chief qualification of a loyal man,
just now is a capanous swallow. If he can
only believe that Loe is retreating, his army
demoralized by hunger and panic-struok by
Gran 'e flanking m ,vement ; that the rebel
president and his cabinet have left Richmond
in terror, and that Butler has whipped the
wait gyrfalcon" Beauregard, he is all right.
If he cannot take this all in at a gulp, ho is a
` copperhead" at least, and a traitor at heart.
'The only compensatory reflection he, has is
that, at all events, he isn't a fool.—kosfon
