We are compelled to pay the cash for every article we use, and material which has al ready advanced enormously in price is still going up rapidly. We have not advanced the price of the Weekly Inteiligencer, though it is greatly enlarged at no little ex pense. Our terms will be, as published, Two Dalian a year, invariably in advance. To enable all the present subscribers to the Intelligencer to renew their subscriptions promptly we have concluded to appoint agents in each township, to whom money can be paid, and by whOm receipts will be given. All who cannot find it convenient to call at our office will please call on the agent in their district. Four issues of the Weekly will be sent to each one of the present subscribers, and by that time we expect to. have a full return from all our agents. If it should so happen that any of the present subscribers fail to hand in their names to us, or our agents, by this time, they will be considered as not desiring to continue their subscriptions, and will be dropped from our list. We hope all will feel it to be to their interest to comply at once with our terms, and that no names will have to be omitted. The present is the best possible time for those who have not been taking the paper to subscribe, and, from the interest we have already seen manifested, we shall be able to increase onr subscription list very greatly. No family can afford to be without at least one good newspaper. Now is the time for our nu merous friends to interest themselves in our behalf. Subscribe for the paper yourself, and urge your neighbors to do likewise.— The following gentlemen have been ap pointed agents, any one of whom is fully authorized to receive money and reeeipt for us, All such us have paid for the Intelli gencer in advance of the ;resent time will receive clue credit on our books, and the paper will be continued to the time for which it has been paid : Samuel Styer, Adamstown Bor.

GEO. SA.NDERSON, anti wasflistened to by a fine audience. He spoke of our once happy Union, its -progress and its fast decadence, of the in fractions of the Constitution by our present rulers, of the prospects of Democratic suc cess in the coiaing election, and of the flat terine• position which the Association occu pied as the chief organization of the county. The odious conscription act was venti lated, and the necessity of a closer organi zation of the party ad% sated. The popular heart was with the peace movement, and an honorable peace would be " much de sired above all things." He congratulated .the Association on its superior heaa4quar ters, and said that its mission would form the rallying point for the Democracy of the county. He concluded amid much applause. Gen. Gao. H. STEINMA7 , .: gave a few words in response to an earnest call. He said that we must believe the lies of the preseht party, or we are " disloyal and sympathize 'with rebellion." Abolitionism could never restore the Union. We must prepare to make sacrifices for our rights, and count for our liberty only on Democratic plat forms. His speech was very short, but full of animation and to the point, and was greeted with great applause. The old I,omo,ratic Central Glee Club was present, the audience with a couple of aduiii s ca mpaign songs. The club rooms of the Association are beautifully fitted up, and will be a very pleasant resort for the Democracy during the present campaigh. The library room will be especially interesting as soon as the shelves become filled with the books which it is intended to place on them. Other means of passing a quiet, social hour are on hand, and will make the place worthy a visit. It is hoped that all the young men who can will join at once and help on the good work. An address will be delivered weekly, due notice of which will be given beforehand, and everything will be done to make the rooms an attractive resort for the reader, the thinker, the lover of sound doctrines, and the seeker of rational pleas ure. Come and join the Association. COARECTION.-it gives us pleasure to be able to state that the person named Sander son, referred to in the communication from a " Returned Soldier," published on Satur day, was not our neighbor, Mr. Alfred San derson, of the Intelhgeweer. He is the only person of that name now having any con nection with that journal, and was not with the party at Rocky Springs who sung the rebel song. The only point in the article which is in dispute, and which we deem a matter of simple justice to correct, is that which confounded him with a person of the same name.—Mondays Express. Mr. Alfred Sanderson never desired any such " correction " as the above to be made. The " pleasure" which it gives the 'Express to make it might as well, therefore, have been saved, as it is all "love's labor lost." Neither has he any fault to find with the ladiA and gentlemen who attended the Pic Nie at Rocky Springs, and of which an insignificant "eaves-drop per" pretends to give, through the cehmins of the Express, an account of the songs sung and the conversation which ensued there upOn. This "Returned Soldier," if our memory serves us rightly, was published as a deserter some two or three years since in this same Express. He afterwards, we believe, rejoined his regiment, but how he has conducted himself since we never learned or cared. He is a contemptible lit tle puppy, and noted only for his sneaking disposition and " Peeping Tom " and " Paul ' Pry" propensities. Mr. A. S. believes fur ther that it is no business of his what songs are sung or what conversation takes place • at private Pic Nies. He is not censor 7noru»z for this community, and does not interfere with or trouble himself about other people's affairs. DEATH FROM POlSON.—Deputy Coroner Snyder on Saturday evening held an in quest on the body of John Feller, who died on the morning of that day under circum stances which left no doubt but that he had caused his death by_ the use of poison. A post mortem examination was made by Dr. Compton. After examining a number of witnesses, several of whom testified that deceased had acknowledged having taken rserdc, the jury returned a verdict of death from taking poison, The deceased lived in the northwestern part of the city . and was well known to our citizens. Hewas subject to epileptic fits. Tan SOLDIERS' VOTE.—The amendment fn the Constitution, allowing the soldiers in tie field the right to vote, , was carried in tabs city by 788 majority, 'The vote wee liAt, only 1888 votes being pellet!, and the eieetlea pund Off very quietly. CONMENCEnteIri EirintriSEs OF Faa.tat- LIN Awn MAESECALL Cot.Lb:ca.—There is a decided and peculiar charm attaching to Commencement day at college. To the graduating class it is a momentous &tea- Sion. For years past it has been looked , forward to with anxious, pleasing hope. It is the dividing line between the secluded life of the student and the great bustling world beyond, into which every ambitions youth (and college youths are always am bitious) desires to plunge. Who shall paint as they exist, the glowing anticipations, the stern resolves, the eager daring with which every high-spirited young man steps boldly forth from college halls into the roaring, sel fish world beyond? How sure he is to over estimate himself, and to undervalue the plodding, practical men, who, without hav ing had the advantag :*4 collegiate educa tion, are doing their 16ed .-. in life admirably well. An unexpected souse into a stream of icy temperature could scarcely shock the physical man more sensibly, than does the first dip into actual every-day life the sen sitive intellectual organism of the dreamy student youth, fresh from the so-called clas sic shades of his Alma Mater. He finds the larger world outside taking little notice of him, in fact not seeming to be very greatly conscious of his existence in it, He is ac corded, not very graciously, but as a mat ter of right, a chance to work in any legiti mate field of labor. His reward is Just in proportion to his ability to make himself necessary to the wants, material or spir itual, of his fellow-men. Perhaps, most young men go out from college loss pre pared for the rude encounters and the sharp contests of life, than those who have gone through the curiculum of merely practical preparation. But the years spent in study are not lost. One young man enters into business, or begins the study of a profes sion, at that period when another of his as sociates enters college. By the time the one is ready to graduate, the other has al ready entered upon the practice of his pro fetiSiOli. The latter has the start by two, three, or four years, but, if the former has rightly improved his time, he has been lay ing the foundation for a fuller and more vigorous intellectual life. He must acquire the practical skill of the other, and in do ing this may not be greatly aided by his college training, but in grasp of intellect and habits of study he ought lo possess more than compensating advantages. In the long run, intellect and industry being equal, he, who has had the advantage of a liberal education, will surprise hint who has not. This is a fact coming to he well known and appreciated by our people. Our colleges are not yet as well patronized as they should be, but there Is a growing in terest manifested. Commencement day is an occasion of interest, not to the college initiates alone, but to the people generally of a town or city where such institutions are located. It is a gala day of excitement for the ladies, affording as it does a good op portunity for them to display their charms and distribute boquets. Lancaster city is not an exception to this rule, and annually, as Commencement day comes around, our hotels are tilled with men of a peculiar stamp, literary-looking individuals, who appear as if they lived apart from the tur moil of a bustling every-day world, did not sell calico, or deal in stocks. The Com mencement occasions of Franklin and Mar shall College are well attended. Even the rude scenes and the wild excitement of our civil war have proved to be insufficient to dispel the interest which is felt in these oc casions, by those who have been accustomed to assemble from year to Year to renew the delights of college association, and live over again the pleasant and well-reanem bered days of student WI , . The late Com mencement was well attended, and tie' ex ercises of more than ordinary interest. The graduating class was smaller than it would have been in more peaceful times. It numbered fourteen. The exercises occupied the greater part of the day, the morning session commencing at 91, o'clock and end ing at 12, and the afternoon session extend ing front 2i, P. H., until after 4. Each mem ber of the class was announced for mi ora tion. After prayer, the first speaker, HENRY U. BRUNER, wits introduced to the audience. His subject, as announced, was " Se Sutor ultra C'repidatn," or, in plain English, "Let the Shoemaker stick to his Last," He ap plied this apothegm to society in general in a manner which showed the entire propri ety of each man doing the work set before him in the world in such manner as to make himself complete master of the employment in which he was engaged. If a man had selected the trade of a shoemaker, it was to be expected of him that he should strive to make the very best shoes possible, and so of any other trade or profession. As an example of the violation of this proper rule, he instanced the exceedingly bad taste of those ministers who are in the constant habit of converting their pulpits into Sun day hustings, and pandering to passion by the delivery of partisan harangues, instead of preaching the Gospel. His speech abounded in telling hits, which were fre quently applauded. It was chaste in tone, scholarly, thoughtful, and very well deliv ered. The frequency of the applause, and its entire heartiness, together with the bo quets which rained at the feet of the speaker at the conclusion of his remarks, showed a proper appreciation of his really fine ef fort on the part of the large audience, and was an evidence of the prevalence of a proper appreciation of the duties of a Chris tian minister. The nest oration, subject, '• Party Spirit," by JEROME Z. GERITAUD, of this city, was quite a creditable production. The speaker was youthful, and his voice a little weak. Ago and proper culture will render him an effective speaker. The third oration, by JONATHAN B. CESS NA, of Rainsburg, Bedford county, on "Forms of Government," showed careful reading and a full appreciation of the sub ject. His eulogy of the form of Constitu tional government adopted by our fathers was fine. He is a good speaker, has a fine voice and a graceful delivery. H. CLAY BRUBAKER, of this city, suc ceeded Mr. Cessna. Subject—" War and the Sanitary." The subjeCt was properly treated, if we except one or two uncalled-for flings at political opponents. The oration was well written, and delivered in a fine, clear voice, and in a spirited and natural manner. The next oration, by S. A. LEINBALm, of Myerstown. The subject, "Trio of the Reformation," was a well-writtren eulogy upon the character of Luther, Calvin and Zwingle. The delivery was somewhat de fective. The next speaker was ELI 0. Sett WARTZ, of Allentown. His subject was " Alexan z dria," and, taking up the history of that ancient city, and treating it in a manner that showed considerable literary taste and a lively fancy, he managed to make an ef fort that was decidedly creditable. It was delivered in good style. The Franklin Oration was delivered by A. J. Bowmts, of Mt. kidney, Va. The sub ject, "Necessity of Religion," was discussed at length, the speaker taking a wide range. It was soinewhat dry, but a thoughtful pro duction. It was not badly delivered, though with no great oratorical effect. The exercises of the morning concluded with a humorous speech from WILLL-131 A. HAAS, of Mahony, which abounded in laughable comparisons. The subject "Me tempsychosis," as treated by the speaker, afforded a tine field for the exercise . of his fancy. This speech was a decided hit. In the afternoon the hall was again well filled. The first oration was a review of the "Monroe Doctrine," by JOIIAII J. PENNY PACKER, of Chester Springs. It was well prepared and delivered in good style. The second speaker was LWELLYN WAN NER,of Kutztown. Subject "Pompeii." This was not a bad effort at descriptive writing, and displayed considerable fancy, together with a poetic turn of mind,„ The speaker's voice was low, but his delivery graceful. The Marshall Oration was delivered by H. C. TRATORER, of Martinsburg, Pa. Sub ject The Nebular Cosmogony." This was one of the finest efforts or the day, being fun of thought; clear, strong, and delivered in a fine voice with a polished manner. The Valedictory, delivered by J. KEYDEB Evelre, was above the average of such per formances, being well written and very well delivered. The Baccalaureate was a plain, practical address, abounding in good advice which we hope will be heeded and well followed. Taking it altogether the exercises reflect ed great credit on the Faculty of the College and on all concerned. We are glad to kip* that the TrudltutiOrtiain a highly prosperous condition, ORATION AND Pot BEFORE THE ALUM NI ASSOCIATION.—On Tuesday week the. Annual Oration before the the Alumni As sociation was delivered by Hon. JOHN CESSNA, of Bedford. A review of the oration will be found in another column. The poem was read by GEO. G. BARCLAY, rcq., of Reading. The • subject was "Time, the Conqueror." It showed some poetic skill, without any great .originality of thought. The reading was not at all effective, and the gesticulation of the reader decidedly objec tionable. CHILDREN'S FAIR.—The Parish School, connected with St. James' Episcopal Church, Duke street, is now holding a fair for the benefit of the Children's Home. A series of tableaux will be given on Friday eve ning. The fair is being held ill the school -- building, adjoining the Church grounds. Pte-tiics.—Pic-nics are all the rage Just now. Every person seems anxious to get. into the country to breathe the fresh air. We would advise them though to be on the look-out for "sketchers" who may be among them taking notes, and whose imagination often extends far beyond the truth. Be care ful, therefore, that your words and actions strictly conform to the rule of the loyal. THE CHAMBERSBUEO SuPrEttEn.s.—The Commissioners of Lancaster county hare appropriated $lO,OOO for the relief of the Chambersburg sufferers. The money is deposited in bank, subject to the order of the Chief Burgess of Chambersbnrg. THE SPECIAL INCOME TAX.—Many per sons seem to misapprehend the purport and provisions of the special income tax passed during the last session of Congress for the year 1863. The first law passed for that year levied a tax of 3 per cent. on all in comes over $6OO and under $lO,OOO, and five per cent. for all over the last amount. This tax has in many instances been paid. Where the income was derived from inter ests and dividends on loans, stocks, etc., the amount was collected by the incurporatett• companies using them, who deducted the tax for the Government from the interest and dividends due. NWhere the income was derived from the profits of business, wages, salaries, rents, it the individual owner paid it directly himself to the collector. The special income tax law requires five per cent. to lie added to the three per cent. al ready paid, and to the, whole income, ex cepting the $6OO allowance, rent aett , ially paid, State and municipal taxes also al lowed to be deducted. As the incorporated companies cannot deduct the additional tax from interest and dividends already paid to their owners, each individual is required to add the amount thus due to the Government [olds income return, so that it shall embrace all his income, whether derivable from stocks, loans, rents, profits of business, wages, salary, or from any source whatever. The meaning of the law is that he shall pay for 1863 at the rate of 8 per cent. on all in come over 15000. An individual who had a clear income of $lOOO, of which $3OO WON de rived from property in incorporated com panies, paid to the collector the amount due on $7OO only, which was $3l, the other 89 being paid by the companies. Now he will have to make out his return for $lOOO, the additional tax, on which will be 550, !nuk ing $BO in all, as the law rtlquires. CoNsTABLE Er.EcT.En.—The City Coun cils, on Friday evening last, elected Mr. SAMUEL SITRUAD Constable of the South east Ward, to fill the vacancy occasioned by the death of Mr. Messenkop. Mr. S., we think, will make an efficient and courteous officer. BARN ltuaNT.—The large brick cccrn and contents belonging to Lawrence Speidle, on Manor street, on the western edge of the city, was consumed by fire early on Sun day morning. The building contained about 000 bushels of wheat in the straw, 40 tons of hay, threshing machine, corn Atel ier, wagon and bed, hav ladders, horse gears, and a number of other articles. The fire was discovered by Mr. Speidle, shortly before one o'clock in the Morning,, just in time to get the horses out of the stable. The lire companies of the city were promptly on the ground with their apparatuses, but could render little assistance, eiKeept the Humane, which made use of the water from a well, and thus saved the neighboring buildings, several of which took hre front sparks front the burning mass. The tire was no doubt the work of an incendiary. The loss is estimated at $5,000, $2.500 of which is covered by Insurance in the Lycoming County Mutual Fire Insurance Company. —Monday's Express. [For the Intelligenror.] MEssus. EDITORS :--A communicatioo signed " Loyalty" appeared in the Examiner of last week, finding fault with a resolution adopted u year ago at the ro-union of the graduating class of 1860 of Franklin and Marshall College. It is not my purpose to honor that com munication with a reply, or to vindicate the patriotism of the class of 1860, when assailed by such men as " Loyalty," It is more to ono's credit to be assailed than to be de fended by such men. I only ask the use of your columns, Messrs. Editors, to make known the fact to this community that the writer of that arti cle, whoever he may be, has fallen so low' in the scale of humanity as to open and read private letters not addressed to him, for the purpose of gaining inlhrtnation not accessible to other people. This class reso lution was abstracted from a private letter mailed in the post office here, about two weeks ago, and yet " Loyalty falsely says he " accidentally met with" it. If such ac tions are attributes of "loyalty," men had better all be traitors. Let this community know that their pri vate letters are liable to be read, before reaching their destination, by this man " Lov.alty " and I am sure his newspaper article will have very little weight. Honor able men should deem him " unworthy of their companionship. The resolution he finds fault with speaks for itself. It needs no explanation. It breathes the true spirit of patriotism and Christianity, and is in marked contrast with the infidel and barbarous sentiment of " Loyalty's" communication. No doubt this " Loyalty " is a groat Union-shrieker, but how ids doctrine of " denunciation " will restore the Union, I cannot imagine. It only widens the breach, and he knows it, and therefore persists in it, for in his heart lie hates the Unton as our Fathers made it; he hates to talk of recon ciliation ; he hates peace, for peace is Union ; he hates the Christian spirit of our class resolution, and would have us preach war and blood as the true salvation of our coun try. • ONE OF ZKE CLASS of IstiO.

This stream of human gore seems to have be cothe the pride of the land, for the High Priest who officiates at the crimson altar has but to express his fears that the sources of supply are becoming exhausted, to cause the people to rally and send forth from among them such victims as can be bought at the lowest rates. Thus the stream is kept full, the crimson tide continues to roll through the land, and 500,000 fresh victims will keep its banks full for some time to come.

Since my last the 79th has undergone any amount of fighting, fatigue and exposure, having only been engaged sixty days and nights, incessantly, in endeavoring to subdue the foe. From Resacca to Atlanta, a distance of ninety miles, almost every foot of ground was frightfully contested. At Kenesaw or Lost Mountain a terrific struggle ensued, requiring ten days before the enemy could be dislodged. Kenesaw is a mountain standing perfectly aloof,—having no con nection with any other,—rising utmost per pendicularly 160 e feet, and commanding Lull view of every avenue of approach. Three lines of enfiladed breastworks:greeted your " optics sharp " as you cast them along the slope, and on the very pinnacle, in bold relief; stands an- almost impregnable castle, —entitled Fort Johnson,—whose inmates are of a howling disposition, making nights especially " hideous withtheiryelLs, ' when ever you come in contact with or "stir them up." In this "up hill" struggle of as cendancy, the 79th was providentially favored, having not one man wounded, whilst other Regiments, Divisions and Corps suffered severely from artillery firing. By perseverance and strategy they were finally compelled to ramose, leaving their airy castle with sideline- decorations, in our peaceful possession. Tho loss on both sides was extremely heavy, but an accurate list of easualities cannot he obtained. They fled precipitately through Marietta,—a small but beautiful Southern village of perhaps one thousand inhabitants in time of peace, —now a deserted, ruined wreck. Three miles beyond Marietta another stand was made by them, but all to no effect, as they were again compelled to yield, and seek re dress on the banks of the Chattahootchie river. This was their selected fighting po sition,—their Gibraltar. Here on the rug ged banks of this turbulent stream, the fate of Atlanta depended, being but eight miles distant from said city, possessing great and many natural advantages. Again we confronted them, and after a siege of five days, surmounting every kind of obstacles, and encountering in our progressive strides, " shells, balls, canister, grape and minnies," quite a number I assure you indeed, suc ceeded in driving them across said river at " double-quick." And now " Othello's oc cupation is nearly gone," for Atlanta is doomed, irretrieveably doomed to fall. Al ready are the " Yanks " knocking for ad mittance at its very portals. Determined to save Atlanta, in despite of anything else, every inch of ground is now being con tested furiously, and with maddened zeal every available material was brought into play. The toscin is sounded, the tint gone forth. A decisive stand, midway between the city and river, is now, ( present writing,) the theatre of action, in which the 79th has performed and is performing conspicuous parts. The tragedy is bloody, and hurriedly, under painful circumstances, I give you a list of names, rank, company and nature of wounds of those engaged. As usual they till the " Roll of Honor by their undaunted bravery, cool courage and unflinching tenacity. Their motto is " onward under all circumstances. Below find a list of killed and wounded.

Examiner TILE 7-39 GOVERNMENT LOAN Many of the advantages of this loan are apparent on their face, butt there :ire others that will be best understood after consi.ler ation. Among them there are ITS ABSOLUTE SEcenrrv.—S:early all ac tive credits are now bused on Government securities. Banks of issue and Savings banks hold them in large quantities—in many cases, more than the entire amount of their capitals—and they holiPt hem as the very best and strongest iuyestuteut they could possibly make. If it were possible to contemplate the financial failure of the Government, no bank would be any better or safer. Sayings banks that alloy, their depositors but live per cent. can only pay interest or principal in greenbacks or notes of State, hanks. Banks of issue and dis count can not ask or get anything better than Government paper in payment of cus tomers' notes, and they prelbr it to all other, for they are compelled to redeem their own notes in that paper as the circulating medi um next to specie in value. By the issue of this loan the U. S. Treasury becomes a tS'a rings biro!: for the people. There are none stronger—none more solvent, anal not one that pays so liberally liar the use of money. You may deposit fifty dollars or lit thousand. The more you put in, the more you will aid and strengthen the a toy ernment, and the more valuable will he the remaining currency of the asiuntry. IV4 LIBERA L INTER eve—The 1 iet'etti raw of interest is six per cent., payable an nually. Thi., is seven and three-tenths, payable semi-manamitg. If you lend on mortgage, there stoats he a searching of ti- ties, lawyers' fees, stamp duties and delays, and you will finally have returned to von only the same kind of money you woubi re t front the toverninent, and less of it. If you invest in this loan, you have no trouble. if there is no National bank at hand, any banker, will obtain it for you without charge, and pay you the interest coupon at the end of six months as a most convenient form of remittance to his city correspondent. If von wish to borrow nine ty cents on the dollar upon it, you have the highest security in the market to do it Ishii. If you wish to sell, it will bring within a fraction of cost .1 interest at any moment. It will be very handy to have in the house. ITS CONVERTIBILITY INTO A Six twit CENT. BoNn.—l-lere conies an advantage that must not be lost sight of. At the ex piration of three years a holder of the notes of the 7-30 loan has the option of accepting payment in full or of finding his notes in a six per cent. gold interest bond, the princi pal payable in not less than five nor more than twenty years from its date as the Gov ernment ma's: , elect. For six months past, these bonds have ranged at an average pre mium of about eight per cent. in • the New N'ork market, and have sold at 109 to-day (July '2.4). Before the war, F. s. six per cent. stocks sold at a much higher rate—and were once bought up by the S. Treasury under special act of 'ongress at a premium of not less than twenty per cent. There is no doubt that this option of eon version is worth at least two or three per cent. per an num to the subscriber to the loan, thus in creasing the actual rate of interest to about ten per cent. Notes of the same class issued three years ago, are now selling at a pre mium that fully proves the correctness of this statement. The Secretary of the Treasury has been told that he must " buy money at the highest rate necessary to command it;" that he should sell his obligations "fir what they would bring," so as to lead the market; but the Secretary will do no such thing: If Shy lock bought bonds at 90 in August, he would demand a concession of another ten per cent. in September, and twenty in October, until he would finally offer to lend only the interest and keep the principal. If Govern ment securities are worth anything, they are riehlv worth all their face calls for in gold, and the country is not so poor in spirit or in purse as to submit to any such sacri fice as Shylock demands. There is but a limited supply of money seeking invest ment at any time, and the Government of fers to pay liberally for its use. At the rate of seven and three-tenths per cent. per an num, to say nothing of the collateral ad vantages, it is the strongest borrower in the market, and every feeling of interest, as well as patriotism and duty, should induce our readers to invest in its loans, "WHAT WOULD You Do ?" —The Re- publicans ask us "what would you do if you were restored to power ?" We answer in a few words: We would put f I Stop to this infamous war, and thus arrest the na tion in its downward career to destruction and woe. Within thirty days after a Dem ocrat is inaugurated President, this war will stop.

To THE EDITOR OF THE N. P. YEA-vs: WAEFLINGTO:s7 COrNTY, ]in.. July 27. The accounts of the recent military affairs in the valley of Virginia, as published in the papers, have been so brief and unrelia ble that I have concluded to send you: a few facts as elicited from hundreds of those who were active participants: It was known that a heavy tiwee under Generals Crooks, Averill, Duffle, Kelley and Mulligan, com posed of most of Hunter's army, with other troops, all under the command of General Crook, were dispatched up the valley in ord6r to head off a portion of Gen. Early's command. Geu. Hunter remolded at Har per's Ferry, for what reason we are not told. We have already had announCed through the papers an account of the victory of Gen. Averill over a part of Early's men about ten days ago, in which the former is said to have taken four pieces of cannon and three hundred prisoners. Skirmishing continued with varied success until last Thursday and Friday. On Saturday it became much warmer, and indicated that a battle would certainly be fought on the succeeding day. The next morning, Stmday last, the two armies approached each other on the road leading from Winchester to Kearnstown, a little village about three miles beyond the former town, memorable for the battle be tween Shields and Stonewall Jackson. The army under General Crook was estimated at 25,000, and that of the enemy as many, if not more; some place it at 10,000, a por tion of General Longstreers corps having conic up with re-inforroments. The battle began quite early in the morn ing, Gen. Mulligan being placed on the left opposite a woods. It raged fiercely through the morning and was at its height about 12 o',-lock. General Mulligan sent word to Gen. Crook that there was a small force of rebels in the woods, and asked what should be done. His answer was charge them and drive them out. ' A charge was ordered, but instead of a few, four lines of the enemy, numbering thousands, rose up, and poured a terrible volley into I ten. M ulligucis ranks, carrying death and destruction in every di rection. Both Gen. Mulligan and his adju tant were instantly killed A tierce tight ensued for the body of the General, but most of his men think it was not recovered. The battle now became general, and soon the Federal troops began to waver. The rebels fought with their usual desperation, massing their men, and soon began to out flank the Federals on both wings. The dead and wounded were lying -by hun dreds in every direction, and it was evident that safety laid only in hasty retreat. The charges of the rebels became more fierce and determined, until the retreat was sounded, the utmost confusion already ex isting. The retreat became a perfect rout, and at last a Bull Run race from 'Winches ter to Martinsburg. The train which had been started ahead was guarded by the 12th Pennsylvania Cavalry, 20th Pennsylvania Cavalry, and a three of infantry. A sur geon told the writer, thut between Winches ter and Bunker Hill a bugler rode hastily up and shouted, "Boys, the rebels are at tacking our train ' every man must take care of himself." The alarm and confusion was awful. Fire was set to a portion of the train. The cavalry was the first to run.— The infantry followed, wagons ran into each other, and were overturned. Team sters cut the traces of their horses, and rude at full speed—and in the language of the surgeon, " Bull Run was nothing, in com parison to the scene." Officers and men are loud in their de nunciations of the Twelfth Pennsylvania cavalry for their cowardice. At Stephen son's depot, six miles north of Winchester, the relict cavalry overtook and outflanked the flying army, and ,•apturrd a large num ber of prisoners, estimated at about two thousand. Must of the artillery also fell into their hands. Here the rout and panic because wild and ludicrous. Hundreds took to the North Mountain for escape. a part of whom are still counter in. A feeble stand WU, made at. .Martinsburg, is portion of the Sixth corps haring arrived to their aid. 11111 N , Steni:ly 15, wh. ing lorro crossed the I , omniae, rvtroxtiug 1A11'4,11.11 Washington county, Maryland.

The other part or the infantry at Sitep herdslown, awl passed through Shit rpsburg, and went down to Harper's Ferry. General Averill struck direct rin. Hagerstown with his tquvairy, and encamped there last night. 11 um I reds of infantry men without arms, hats ur .shoes, and cavalry men trithnut horses, Lace peen passing along to-day, as well as last night, all hurrying as fast as they can toward Harpers Ferry. We have never seem before so many stragglers. Ali admit, both officers and men, that this was one 1.1 lilt. mast disastrous atihirs of the war. The number of killed, wounded and captured is estimated at 11,1 n four to eight thousand. We have Seen We rebels go through here Mree times, but never in such sorry plight as those men; hungry, worn out, hatless, horseless, armlesis, clothes torn and ragged, and, worst of till, utterly demoralized and tlispirifed. To-day we saw a captain riding along without a shoe or stocking. The account here given', derived from hundreds of officers Mid men, halls rather below the reality than above it. They all concur in the same story: "1 - tter, elver wholming defeat. A 1.101 - 11011 in the fight at Snicker's 'tap, on the fiStli inst., under Crook.

V . ~ A fp'. j General Grant's assault upon the I ',puled erate works attar Port Walt halt has been unsuccessful. The entire army was em ployed in the attack. Nothing was aecom plished. Friday it was announced that the mine was completed. General Grant at once made his dispositions for the attack. The fort undermined was in the outer line of Confederate works, on the south bank of the Appomattox, northeast of Petersburg. Burnside's l ',nits was in bout of it. War -1.011 IV:IS SI Jlllll\l'cSl BlllllSille, eleSely joining hint. )11 Friday night Martindale's corps marched trout Bermuda Hundred to the south side of the Appomattox, and took position behind Burnside. In order the more completely to I secure an overwhelm ing force for the attack, all the ground re cently occupied on the north bank of the James NV is abandoned. Foster, with his division, retired to the earthwork on the river hank. lie kept close under the pro teetion of the gunboats. On Friday night Hancock began crossing to tile soutli bank of the James. Sheridan's cavalry, which had been on the extreme Hank, followed him. Sheridan in his re treat got involved in the woods near Mal- Vern Hill. The enemy cut off some of his regiments. A Contest ensued, in which about a hundred were lost on both sides.— The regiments succeeded in rejoining the main body. The Confederates, however, captured one of Sheridan's cannon. By midnight Hancock and Sheridan had crossed the river, and marched towards Port Walthall. Hancock took position on the right of Burnside. Sheridan passed to the southward and encamped on Warren's southern flap k, and in the rear. He was on the lookout for any Confederate flanking movement from the Weldon Railroad. On Saturday morning, Foster's single division, encamped close to the river's edge, *as the only body of Federal troops on the north bank of the James. Birney, with the re mainder of the Tenth Corps, garrisoned the long line of works in front of Bermuda Hundred. Roth places had been weak ened. On Saturday morning, Warren, Burn side and 11 - amuck were in line -of battle northeast of Petersburg. Martindale was in Burnside's rear; At daylight the mine exploded. The Confederate flirt was blown to atoms. Three cannon and many soldiers are said to have been buried in the ruins.— Nothing reliable is known of this, however. The explosion of the mine was the signal for a furious eaunonade along the Federal line. Ninety-four cannon and. fifteen mor tars threw shell. Uncler cover of the can nonade Burnside advanced and entered the ruined fort. The Confederates began a cannonade in reply. " Warren advanced, and then Martindale. The contest was furious. Ilar!ock was sum sent for, and I y ten o'clock the greater part of Grant's army was engaged around the ruined fort. The Confedrates made a stubborn resis tance. Their outer lino of works was .ap turi.d. They brought reinforcements end endeavored to retake them. They were sue cessful. Alter a long, bloody contest the Federal troops were driven but. The works were recaptured, The Federal Corps re treated and took the positions held early on Saturday looming. Six thousand men had been killed and wounded, and nothing ac complished. . The move was a failure. The disastrous result of the attack•is mainly due to the conduct of the negro regiments. Burnside'S Black Division - was very fool ishly pushed to the front. It was at once broken up by the Confederate fire. It be came utterly demoralized. The negroes rap away in droves. Many were captured.— Most of their officers were killed or wound ed. Their defeat compelled the withdrawal of the other troops. The Federal General Bartlett was captured by the enemy. Gen eral Grant, however, captured five battle flags. On Monday morning General Grant and President.Linexiln had an interview at Fortress Monroe. It lasted some time.— Lincoln returned in the forenoon to Wash ington and Grant to the army. The Confederate cavalry expedition which entered Pennsylvania, after leaving Mc- Connellaburg, marched westward towards Bedford. Itis generally believed thEit they turned southward before reaching Bedford, and went out of the State. ' There is noth ing from Bedford indicating their approach. On Saturday a body of New York caval rymen was sent from Washington on a scout towartl4 Leesburg, Virginia. They found the enemy there, were attacked, lost nine prisoners, and returned to Washing- L.Proni. Iredue.sciay's Age.] ; The general impression • in. the Federal camp before Petersburg is, that for, some I time General Grant will be unable to do anything. His army was terriblycut up i-on Saturday. The men were lea into a L slaughter pen, from which they could go neither forward nor backward without be ing' destroyed. The Confederate loss was very small; probably not more than five hundred. Two or three thousand Federal prisoners are said to be captured. Twenty live hundred wounded soldiers have been brought to the hospitals. On Saturday night three thousand dead and wounded were ly ing between the two armies. They could not he reached by Grant's troops. The en tire loss of Saturday's battle will foot up be tween eight and ten thousand. The tele graph tells us it is but twenty-five hundred. We need scarcely say the news writers en deavor to make the public believe that the wounded men who were in the hospitals on Saturday night, were all that were lost. We are not permitted to have a true report of the loss. It was one of the most terrible de feats of the war. We tmst it will teach the country a lesson, by which it will profit. On Sunday morning, General Grant sent a tiag to General Lee asking a truce to - care for the wounded and bury the dead. It was refused. In the afternoon Gene Butler sent a second flag. It also was ref use d._ Piles of dead and wounded lay in the ), reach of the Confederate works, caused by the e; . plosion of the mine. They could not be Psi at, as they were under the enemy's fire. On Monday morning a third flag was sent.— This the Confederates accepted,' and at ten o'clock, when our intelligence closed, an armistice prevailed. The dead and wound ed were being cared for. The losses in the battle were principally in Burnside's Corps. Martindale and Warren lost about a thous and. Hancock lost very few. Gen. Sherman does not seem to be doing much at Atlanta. Ile is still on the north bank of Peach Tree Creek, and the Confed erates opposer - his crossing. The battles of the 22d, 2tid° and 24th of July are now de scribed in (lentil. Letters have reached us giving accounts of them. Notwithstanding reports to the contrary, Gen. Hood's tele gram is confirmed. Sherman's eastern flank at Decatur was very badly beaten.— Twelve cannon were. taken from it. Gen. Thomas, in his report of the attack oil the centre, admits a loss of ten cannon. Thomas had no command over the eastern flank. It was led by McPherson. The total losses of the battle were twenty-two cannon and two thousand prisoners. Of the contest of July 2Sth,_ no accounts have yet reached us. It was a Confederate attack and was re pulsed. The, Federal loss is reported at six hunched; the Confederate loss one thous and. THE NEW ISSUE It has at last been announced by his Im perial Majesty—the "bogus" Jackson of the White House—that he will consent to treat with the rebels, provided they will first agree to abandon the " peculiar institu tion.'• That is to say, as soon as the South ern people have confiscated and freely given up all their possessions, made themselves' beggars and mendicants, destroyed all their hopes for future prosperity in the commer cial world, snatched the very bread from the lips of their hungry children, and struck the last blow at the heart of their social sys tem;this modern imitator of that ancient Caligula, whose chief delight it was to pro mulgate laws and regulations for the de struction of his own subjects, will consider the Southern people sufficiently - elevated in the scale of respectability to be treated as ordinary rebels have heretofore been re garded by the other nations of the world! This declaration has one virtue, strange as it may appear ! It lays the issue bare aql,re the world. Heretofore emancipation proclamations, and Abolition measures, have been claimed only as " military neces sities "—incidents of the war! By this means, the trusting portion of our people who have been willing to take the Admin istration at its own valuation without re gard to die market price, have been 1 , .d to believe that the real primary object of the war Via, a restoration of the authority of the 'enst itution, and that Abolition meas ure,, being only a InealLS for the accomplish ment would cease as soon as the Constitution wall re-established in its origi nal integrity. Possibly the p e opl e may now be able to see the delusion. They , nay now realize that the integrity of the Constitumm is only a secondary, it' not a remote object of the war. An opportunity was presented which promised at least a reasonable pros poet that the I !oust it ution and the Union might be restored. Instead of Seizing that opporttudly, and making an earnest and statesmanlike effort to save our country from a further effusion of its vital strength, this mad fanatic closed the door against all attempts at negotiation by dictating terms in advance, which he must have known—if he was not a fool as well as a fanatic—would be contemptuously rejected. By thus cut ting off all efforts at negotiation, the Ad ministration has put the issue fairly and squarely before the people, and it now pre sents but two alternatives. Let us place them side by side and see how 'they look. On the one hand 110, have: PEACE, with a re-establishment of har mony and fraternity among the bel ligerent States, at the sacrifice of the mad scheme of universal and im mediate emancipation of slavery in the South; an emancipation that .01.thkadd not ,ine iota hi the pros periry., dignity, or happiness of the Northern people! On the uther hand you hare: \I'AH, indefinitely prolonged, and aceoin partied by all the horrors and sick ening details that have followed in its track for three long and weary 3-ears, with an absorption of North ermbarength and wealth frightful to look upon! People of Pennsylvania, these are the al ternatives presented M you by the party now in power ! This is the issue upon which you are to pass your judgment in Noyem ber ! Are you willing to barter your mess of pottage of Abolitionism for the life of the Republic? If your answer be YEA, then tho hopes of mankind will survive, liberty will live; and the rich oriental light that will precede the rising sun of a future pros perity, will gleam over the land, and its brightness will be reflected hack from mil lions of smiling faces and happy hearts.— But if your response be NAY, all the hopes of this people lbr itself or its posterity, must Wither and. die! Gaunt hunger will soon stalk boldly through our once teeming val leys:. this fleshless bones will rattle upon the lintels of many an humble cot, and the shadow of his presence will bring terror to many a lordly mansion. Choose, tree white men! And in your decision deal honestly with your country— commit not the unpardonable sin of turning a deaf ear to the admonitions of your own conscience—use the judgment which God has given you for guidance. Let it not he perverted by prejudice or passion. Your children, and your children's children are interested in your decision—deal justly wit h them in this matter "as you shall answer at the GREAT DAY !"—Age.

Of course it was treasonable, for a late act of Congress has expressly de clared such conferences to be so ; and acts of Congress and Presidential proclamations are now the supreme law. We are anxious to know how these scoundrels are to be pun ished. Will President Lincoln send Old Abe, I - Lay and Greeley to Fort Lafayette, or hang them at once?
