TEE LATEST WAR NEWS.
Wo have delails of a bold movement on he part
'of the rebels at White House. It smuts that a
force of the enemy got in the rear of our army, and
made an attack at a place called Old Church, and,
committed many ravages, killing teamsters, and
destroying stores, cutting down telegraph wires,
and burning bridges. The rebel forties ware very
large, end after accomplishing their errand, ro•
tonal to Richmond. How they got through our
lines is a mystery to nt. At White House this raid
created a great sensation. Sutlers, correspondents,
loafers, surgeons, and civilians generally, became
dreadfully frightened, and made a stampede to
wards Fortress Merv. We print full details of
the affair on our first page.
Itichniond papers of the 12tb, received here, say
that 3,000 prisoners hevo been captured by Ja.A
non. They also say that 142 of our wounded prison
ers, captured at Fair Oaks, have died.
General orders No. 86 dismisses from the service
Surgeon Daniel S. flays, for shameful neglect of
the wt.unded committed to his charge.
The rebels IWO reported to be 60,000 strong at
Grenada, a small town in Mississippi, a few . miles
south of Memphis. Business is reported briik; and
provisions are said to be plenty.
A despatch received at Atlanta, Georgia, states
that a Federal force of 7,000 men had divided op
posite qbattanonga, a portion going up and the rest
dean the river. It was believed_ AWbey would
attack the city. The ChattanoooM(said to be
firm and reliant. , •
nip 2d Ohio Cavalry hes arrived at Fort Scott,
New bioxioo, with comtaiseary Mores optared
from a a tunny. Sharp fighting had taken place
in the ,Terri'ory, with groat loss to. the enemy,
both in men and munitions.
THE enrxeirze which insugurated this re
• hellion is rapidly bringing it to a close. Dis
organization was the aim of-the conspiring
oligarchy that plotted this infamous treason;
disorganization of the national finances, poli
tics, and commercial relations was the means
which gave a practical beginning to the war,
and only disorganization of the whole pridr
condition of the South, an entire disruption
of every rlltical obligation' by violation of
civic faith and, a resultant an achy controlled
only by force, have enabled the leaders of this
nefarious conspiracy to maintain, for so long,
an unfaltering front in spite of all the power
exerted for their subjugation. Bnt such a
support la, within itself the seeds of its own
destruction. it has now gone to its very
furthest 1 mit ; it has exerted the full scope of
its power ; it has exhausted every energy in
self- inalutenance, and now it 'must submit to
the law of which i:self is the embodiment ;
it must prey upon izself, and die of sheer
it [tuition. The spirit of disorganization is
working fearful retribution upon disorganize
ti. it's body.
It is well known what a lawless condition
society at the South has been plunged into as
a consequence of the forced conscriptions
made to create and maintain the army. For
this fact we do not have to rely upon a few
prejudiced statements; every testimony tends
to con °borate the mourn'ul report. At first,
a mad ambition sustained those who, having
some power, aspired to greater; and the infu
sion of the belief among the people that the
war was waged for their homes and lives fanned
their enthusiasm into an intense flame. Thus
. both parties had a positive object in - view
towards which they might hopefully work, and
their unity cf purpose inspired an equal unity of
plan. Indeed, so thoroughly united were the
leaders by their common greed of power; so
harmoniously massed were the people , by their
common Apr of rapine and enslavement, that
the Southern hosts presented, at first, a
compactness and completeness with which wa
could hardly cope.' Not knowing it theta
selves, they were the organized incarnation of
the spirit of disorganization ; they were labor
ing under a delusion, and it was the delusion
which gave themwtatever strength they pos
seamed. Therefore it was that the operative
principles which drew to d kept them together
acted wi h quicker effectiveness than those
which rallied our own forces. Etch one
imagined that it was a life-and-death struggle,
and determined to die on the threahold of his
home rather than in its fames; nnder such
circumstances the rapid and thorough forma
tion of the Southern army was no marvel.
To the North, on the other hand, no per
sonal incentive was extended. It was called
on to lavish its treasure and its blood in de
fence of what was, compared to the individual
inducements of the South, an abAract idea.
The country was in danger; they were sum
moned to defend the Consfaahen. Each matt
might have lived out his own life as happily
and as successfully when the slave power
held the reins of Government as under the
most equitable rule of free labor and free
ideas. Society would, indeed, have been gra
dually undermined and all commercial and na
tional interests ruined. But as- tar as every
soldier now in the Federal army was concern
ed, the Southern oligarchy might as well have
occupied the White House as President LIE
HOLN. This lack of purely personal interest
would, in any other country, have been an in
superable obstaee to the raising of a single re
giment; and with us, it undoubtedly retarded
the initial movements of the war. But when
once the people fairly ned ers toed the nature of
tliit struggle forced upon them, and saw the is
sue clearly, the resist'ess might of truth, even
though in the form of -au abstract idea, was vin
dicated upon a scale more grand than the world
• ever saw before. Who can forget that grind
uprising of the nation, that vast rush
ing to arms—not excitedly, not in frantic
desperation, but with that serene de
votion which betokens an utter nega
tion of self; that calm inflexibility, of
purpose which always indicates a careful
choice, but marks, too, in iron lines the un
dying eonstancy of the choice. The people
of the North knew that they were to fight 'for
an idea; but the magnificence of the idea—
republican freedom to America, and indi
rectly political freedom to all the world—in
syired them with a sacred, steady, and staunch
resolution which nothinecould lessen or de
stroy. It took time for "he yrinciple to per
meate the mass; but when the seed had found
lodgment, its growth, being dependent on.
nothing but innate vitality, was -as sure as it
_ was strong. Having its own laws within itself,
whatever results it attained It kept, thus in
creasing the perfectness of its organization at
every step.
These causes are sufficient
.tyleeount for
the opposite internal conditions of the hostile
armies at the present time. One is a band of
people pressed into military form by being de
ceived into a spurious enthusiasm. Its ani
mating purpose was solely a personal one; and
now that it has discovered the falseness of the
plea upon which it was formed, there is no
controlling influence, eicept sheer ferce, to
keep it together. The other has delitihrtitely
enrolled itself in defence of the idea on which
the Government is based; it has no individual
ends to work out, and, therefore, no reverses
can affect its unity. The leaders of the one
aimed at disorganization, and are now bringing
its fruits upon themselves; the leaders of the
other aimed at unity, and unity is the means
to their noble end. BEAUREGARD'IS force is a
fugitive rabble; Efazzgert's a disciplined army,
as thorough in Its organization now as when It
firg. took the field. So are 'these iniquitous
plotters slain with their own wettions.
TEN PENNsrwrawrasts in the city of Wash
ington hold a meeting at Willard's Hall
this evening, for the purpose of taking mea
sures to anticipate the wants of their sick and
wounded fellow-eitize•ls in the army. This
meeting will be of great importance, and
should be largely attended. Ili re are thou
sands of our fellow-citizens in the National
-Capital holding position under the Govern
ment—living the lives of private citizens, or
serving their country in houqrable and ardu
ous capacities. We aro glad to son they do not
forget the State of their home and their pride,
when. citizens of. that State are sutf.iring .for
our common 6:Wintry:" \ lt is a gratifying thing
to see that, wherever a. native. of our great
Commonwealth: goes; he takes with him the
love of hOme, friends, and his Common
wealth: It is that unity of feeling which has
made the men of Massachusetts . so tree in
their friendship, and so brave in every combat.
We trust that good results will come from
this meeting, and that every arrangement will
be made to alleviate the miseries and the sor
rows of our countrymen.
TY MERE ever has been, on the face of the
earth, a country that has seemed predsstiasted
to attain unexampled and unmarred prosperity,
it is the. United States of America. God's
will in giving it a mission unassociated with
any of the ordinary interests of earth's other
nations—a moral mission, whose sacredness
must keep it inviolate from. even contact with
the sordid aims of the common world—seems
to have found material expi:esaion in the is,-
lated physical position assigned to our cwt.
try. The exhaustless resonrces put within our
easy reach are further indicative of the same
design. We are placed beyond the need of
selfish tussle,.or, at least, beyond the chance
of losing our better selves in. the whirl of self
ish tussle, while'wo are working out our grand
commiseon. To make the plan complete, all
the rest of the world is laid under contribution
to furnish material for our inhabitation; all
. •
nations are united itt us, because the grand
Idea which is given us to develop we sea Ab
make over as a legacy to all the Barbee. All
are aiding the great work; therebyauncon
sciously giving it their seal.:. Whitt nobler
spectacle could be presented! .What, fairer
chances given !
Yetjust as the beauty is ripening, thefoul.-
ness ot a black rot mars it. The seedisieSdis
ease are buried in its substance ;• are encou
raged "there to make a putrid growth; and,
now spread widely a loathsome decay. All
the advantages of the country aro perverted;
is high miss'on neglected; nay, instead of
being a lighthouse to the benighted world,
and flinging cheering beams across the waters
of principle and policy, in whose storms whole
nations have been gulled, it would • seek to
quench even the uncertain little binnacle lights
by which the comp lases of partial civilizations
are fwd. An attempt is really made to shroud
the whole earth in the darkness ot barbarism,
.and wheel the nineteenth century back' into
the fifth ; and it originates, too, in the coun
try peculiarly dedicated to political rogenera
lion atd holiness 1•
A recent eloquent writer speaks of "the
drop of tiger bided that lurks in every ono's
heart." It is as true of the na.ion il as of the
individual heart, and we are now waking to an
awful realization of the fact. Our tiger is at
last disclosed. The horrid brute, whose thirst
is slaked only by human blood, whose hunger
nothing 'can appease but human flesh, has
sprung forth to crush and rend the humanity
of the nation. But, step by otep, we have
beaten him back to his jungle, matted with
every poisonous Vine, wrapped with eyery
poisonous IDIOM. It has been the calm,
steady eye of Reason against the ferocity of
Passion, . that knows no law except the im
pulses of its brutish instincts. Step by step,
Reason and Right have conquered; the fierce
and stealthy beast has quailed and moved
uneasily backward, and now, in its lair and
amid its whelps, it crouches for its last spring.
It is for life ; and desperation quivers in every
nerve, and stretches evelf muscle to its ut
most tension. It is no exaggeration to say
that the great struggle of- the world is at
band. The question is, whether the high
priest of human liberty will apostasize, sulfur
martyrdom, or triumph over the traitors to
the race. The people of the-North recognize
the momentous import of the issue, and are
sacrificing everytllleg to vindicate the nation's
high commission, and faithfully discharge the
trust which down trodden peoples repose in
them. Treasure is offered freely ; hapPioess
is staked; homes, hostas, lives—everything
that is dearest to the heart is sacrificed for the
fulfilment of the world's hope.
Would that there were no other side of le
picture ! Would that this love of country and.
' of man could shed an undimmed halo over
history's page ! But, to the eeerlasting 'infa
my of the sneaking traitors that create it, to
the reproof of the mistaken charity of the
people 'that permit it, be it • recorded, that
while; for this holy cause, such sacrifices are
made, such suftrings endured, such labors
performed as the world has never dreamed of
before, there Is a plot on foot to render all this
bereirm 'futile, to cottittse all •• this steadfast
noir; orpurpose, to Make all that has been ac
complished play traitor to itself,'and subserve
tho cause of national ruin and human degrada
tion. There are creatures in our midst'whii

, pretexts fur sowing discontent among the peo
ple. Their furtiye insinuations did not dare
Ito breathe in whisper • when the trumpet times
of- an uprising people called "r To' arms t"
ITheir cowardly maligoity bided its time;
and now that the North is wounded and
weary and faint, they hold—with plau
sible kindness, but really wi:h ruthless
ness of murderous purpose—a poison to
its lips under Fromisc of balm. .r Abolition,"
"Confiscation," "Emancipation," cg Demo
eraey," are their watchwords; and from the
cloak of t , conservatism" they seek to give the
blow by stealth which their Southern coadju
tors cannot deal by force. Their effrontery is
growing ; it seizes every forward movemenCas
a step for its loftier mounting. Soon we shall
see it as a recognized power in the land. It
will make the feed it feeds on ; it will grow,
as it did before, by the corruption it engen
ders; it will drain the fresh, pure blood now
coursing in the national veins; it will coil its
slimy folds about the national heart, and stifle
its every healthful pulsation ; it will demo-
Maze .ihe national conscience, blunt all the
• nallonitlinoril perceptions, now so sensitively
refining their tone, make all this expenditure
of blood to go for naught, and erect a slave
oligarchy in the land.
Will the people calmly look upon such pros
titution of all that is good ? Will they tame
ly submit to this cunning thieving of all poli
tical right ? Will they:again accept their chains?
Rather let us ask and answer the question
with which we started. Feeling the premoni
tory throes of the terrible contest about to
`•• decide on the existence of the Republic, let
us ask, Does our country see the purport of
this war? Will it act up to the responsibilities
which the war entails?
'The moral instinct of the age says—yes.
Humanity's appeal hopes—ye.. Old-time
despets rub their golden spectacles and blink
doubtingly in the growing light; but the tu
multuous heaving of the masses is drawn
clearly enough on their confused sight to make
them answer—yes. The Czar stoops from his
throne to kick the shackle instead of the serf.
Thechiefs.of Africa give to the desert a sys
tem-as barren as its sands. Idexico and South
America recognize, amid the luxurious growth
of their tropics, a nobler life than an indo
lence that grows sleek on unrequited toil. All
these sal - -yes; the. North will strengthen
our uncertain bands. The fathers of our
country and our Constitution repeat again and
again—yer, yes; we created for yon a politi
cal freedom, and you will not let'it die. And
the brave bones now whitening under South
ere sod cry back to us—yes; we fought and
fell for republican forms and republican free
dom; you dare riot hide that our blood was a
sacrifice. .
Ah, it is not the groans from - the battle
field at Richmond that will answer these re
sponses. It is the growing sentiment of an
undivided North. •
IT ra'irrnatiOn to see with what facility the
reoccupied rebel.territery becomes a part* of
the Maine. • The work of conquest is merely a
prelude to the work of reorganization, and we
are not actually out of the battle and the
bombardment before we are in the midst of
provost marshals, commissioners of charity,
and Government mail agents. A proclama
tion of General BUTLER. creates more excite
ment than the occupation of Forts Philip and
Jackson, and On correspenden's have hardly
finished their nurradves be'ere the editor is
busy about the commanding .general, com
mending or condemning him, in his leading
articles. There is much benignity in the way
our Government has of dealing with the
people of the repossessed South. vire look in
vain for anything like vengeance or retalia
tion. We see a - spirit of leuiency in every
proclamation of our commanding generals—in
every act of COngress—in every word that
comes from the lips of our beloved President.
And altbough it may not seem so to our
friends, we think we can see in the' tone of
the Southern people a proper appreciation of.
this spirit. Read the papers of any Southern
town before its occupation by. the Union
forces, and contrast their spirit with that mani
fested after the Federal troops have taken
possession. In the first case we read of meet
ing for burning the town, and propositions for
destroying all manner of staple, and calm de
terminations to die before yielding to
the invader. An advance is• made, a battle
is fought, and the flag of the Union is raised.
Instead of These deeds of heroism and despe
ration, we have irrepressible;demands for food,
• and large crowds of citizens anxious about
their property. Our major generals find them
selves is the midst of imploring populationo,
and do nothing but write passes, and sire:con
ducts, and orders for the relief of 'the desti
tute. It is only power on the one hand and
necessity on the other; the manitestation'ofta
nation's strength and mercy, and the exhibi
tion of the helplessness and poverty . of a cm
spiracy. By agencies like these we accom
plish the work of reorganization, and thus it
will be to the eril, •
IPnna the war commenced, there Was con
siderable speculation, as may be remembered,
on the condition of Lancashire in the event of .
England being deprived of her usual supply of
cotton from the United States. The London
press, which is remarkable for the extent of its
assertion and the paucity of its facts, bravely
declared that England could get on extremely
well without American cotton. GP We can he
supplied," it said, cg from the Indies, East and
West; from Brazil and the Bahamas; from
Central Africa and Algeria; from Senegal and
Arabia; from China and Australia; trona Spain
and Portugal ; from Italy and the South of
France ; from Sicily and Turkey.' There will
be no trouble in getting cotton, in abundance,
firm all parts of the world. It is 'only to ask
and bave,,and we shall weave more muslins
and calicoes than over before were made and
sold." It was rather a bold promise, seeing
that, of all the cotion,worked up in all parts
of Europe, five-sixths have been the produce
of the United States.
The courtesy of a commercial friend has
placed at our disposal the last Cotton Circular
of NEEL'. Brothers, of Manchester, dated May
23d. We do not precisely know whether this
eocument, which is printed, was intended to
be "strictly private and confidential," but
shall give the public the benefit of the doubt,
and state a few of its leading points. It is,
indeed, net so much a circular as a confession.
Messrs. NEIT;I. frankly declare that, for the
first ten months of the war, they entertained
the befit f, common in England, "as rega ' rds
one party, that the Northern people were not
iu earnest ; that they had no military strength;
teat their system of finance would speedily
bteak down, and that they would 4n cry
out r peace ; and, as regards the other
party, that the resources of the .North
were so enormous, when compared with
these of the South, that the war could not
last more than a very few months ; that they
expected the war to be over in from thirty to
ninety days; and that, especially, was it de
rnonstiated to be entirely impossible that the
North could support an expenditure of two,
three, or tour millions of dollars per day for
a longer term, or make raper currency a legal
tender, without driving gold to a fabulous pre
mium, and the Government bonds to a pro-
Tortionate discount."
But, tho circular continues, England has
learned a great deal during the last three
months; it bns at last been discovered, by
newepapor editors, by merchants, by manufac
turers...by shirowners, by politicians, that
the North really is in earnest—" that, the
[American]
. nation is staking its all upon the
issue of this contest, and that t its al' means
larger rtst.nrces than have ever before been
actively 'employed in war by any Power.
It has also been found that there was
room in the country for the increase
of paper 'circulation authorized, and that the
perfect unanimity and confidence of the people
defeated those who speculated on a financial
crisis, and even .eirried United Stites stocks
to a preMium. Considerable as was our own
. faith in the national resources, we confess
11 - at,ll we may Judge by present appearances;
we Under-estimated them." . Also, that the
Sontherns, ,comidering the enormous force
brought against.thein, have maintained their
ground better tban could have'been anticipa
ted, though their 'ultimate defeat is inevita
ble. It is a great deal to have these facts
acknowledged in England. Six. months ago
when PaMartasrox was hurrying troops and
cannon over to Canada, and at the same time
was keeping back for three weeks Mr. SE
WARD'S pacific despatch Oh the Trent affair,
any Englishman who should have acknow
lceged a tithe what is confessed in the Neill
Circular would have been ridiculed as mad or
fOolish. Time has adjusted the balance, and
the finger of Truth passes over the dial.
The circular assumes, very hopelessly, that
the Federal occupation of the Southern ports
will probably liberate a small quantity ot•cot
ton, but.monly the more hermetically seal the
=ls of the nation from intercourse with the
outer world, and the more effectually tend to
that disorganization of trade in the interior,
which has Already decided the planters to re
duce to a bagatelle their production of cotton."
It expects that cotton will, not be supplied for
export,and that even such a thing as a healthy
exchange of commodities between the North
and South cannot spring up under the Morrill
Tariff. The fact, however, is the reverse.
Already have .vessels from the Northern ports
taken heavy cargoes down South, but a largo
quantity of cotton has been sent back in ex-
Flange. Messrs. NEILL wrote of this country,
as it was in April, before this exchange com
menced, and are to be acquitted of intentional
misstatements.
• To meet the decrease in the stock of cotton,
in" Europe, caused by the non-receipt of the
last crop, decreased consumption was resorted
to ; the effects, as the public know, have been
half-work, and no work in Lancashire and
other places dependent on the cotton manu
facture. In May, 1862, the stock of cotton
was 42,000 bales, against 290,000 at .the same
date in 1861, Messrs. NEUL sly:
The doamward progress of the stocks of American cot.
too, since the highest point of lest year, is illustrated
roughly by the following quarterly table, to which we
append the Liverpool quotation for middling New Orleans

This brings us back to the question—whence
will Europe obtain her supply of cotton ? The
increase in price, so tempting to producers
and dealers, ci has failed to attract an increase
of supplies from other quarters" than the
United' States. The large shipmenttitof 1861
cleared out India, and a fresh supply must be
waited for—besides, most of the cotton lately
obtained from. India has been of short .staple,
aid therefore unfit for use unless mixed. up
wish a better article, (the American,) which is
precisely what cannot now be obtained. From
Egypt and. Brazil, &c., there is a largo 'per
centage of increase, for the firsttour months of
1862, but the increase -159,000 Vales against
97,000 last year•Lis so small as not to be se
riously felt in the trade.
• The conclusion arrived at by the circular is
thiit, tinder the circumstances of short supply,.
(of inferior cotton,) from India, and of no sup.
ply fr6m the United States, the manufacture
must continue greatly depressed, and that the
present price of cotton in Europe,. though in
some cases double what it formerly was, when
the United Statts supplied , five-sixths of
the whole European consumption, cannot
be eonsidered unreasonable. A continued
non-supply would force prices up, but we are
told "on the other band, further Federal suc
cesses, such as'there is every reason to antici
pate, or the arrival of even a few bales of cot
ton froin the South, would, with equal cer
tainty, at least temporarily depress them."
Now that the cotton-consuming countries—
England and France=have a certainty that ex
portation of the article from India, and that of
inferior quality, is not to be expected; it is
their interest to go with the North. This, we
submit, is the key to the'recent moderation of
the English press on our question. They
thought they could do without us, and were
mistaken. They would have trampled upon
us, and now would affect great respect and re
gard,' • ..

HON. AND Cot,. T. B. FLORENCE has re-en
tered theßsts as a ,nesyspap . er publisher, and
advertises a weekly called ct The Constituttonal
Union," printed at 130 South Third street,
Philadelphia. Most of the• gallant Colonel's.
newspapers have been failures, not because he
lacks Indomitable industry and zeal, but be
'Cause they have been dedicated to the worst,
of cieeds and used by the basest of politicians.
There is room for a " Democratic" paper in
Philadelphia, and as the Colonel's new one Is
to , be "Democratic," ho may borrow admoni
tion and comfort from past mishaps by taking
another tack to secure future profit and re
nown. If he will print a newspaper like Au•
DREW JOHNSON'S Nashville. Union, which de
clares the address of the Fifteen Democratic
members of Congress to be on • a par with
Treason, and gives Mr. LINCOLN'S Adminiitra
tion a hearty support, he will make for him
self a party and a name. But if his ca Constt
tut tonal Union" is. to be a reprint of the
Barlisburg Union, the Pittsburg Post, the Cin
cinnati Enquirer, and the Delaware Gazette;
if it is to be a medium• for the satire of
Mr. WILLIAM B. REED, the crotchets of Mr.
Inesasou, and the disaffection of Mr. WHAR
TON ; if it is to be the vehicle to carry abuse of
Mr. Luscois and the Abolitionists, rather than
of the traitors in arms, it will only be 'a new
mourner added to those who followed the
National Democratic Review to a respectable
grave. We wish Col. FLORENCE well; and. it
we were disposed to be a prophet, we might ask
him to remember what we have here written.
A few years will prove 'that we have, predict
ed rightly. Why should the Democracy. of
Philadelphia, after the bitter lessons of the last
four years, be again rushed to their ruin upon
the rock of Slavery ? And if they follow
VALLANDIOHAM & CO., this will assuredly be
their fate.
Hos. Joint L. DAWSON has been .presented
as the cc Democratic" candidate for Congress
by the "Democrats" of Fayette county, in this.
State, and it is expected that their recommenda
tion will be effective with the other counties of
the district. Idr. Dice , soa is a gentleman eitor

thorough Canvass, should he take the field.
He is too honorablott man to wear false colors.

THE NEWS from the Southivest which we
published yesterday from ow correspondent
"Magnolia," (and in doing so anticipated our
cotemporaries in New York and Philadel-.
pbia,) shows that Commodore Fanaacur un
derstands the true way of dealing with cowardly
rebels. His bombardment of t'.e town of
Gland Gulf was a severe lesson, and while no
one was injured it was an example hot to be
forgotten. The rebels fired upon unarmed
transports froth masked batteries, and this was
the retaliation. At Baton Rouge they fired
upon a small boat's crew and FARRAGCT drop
ped a few shells into their mansions. This is
the true way. Hard blows and speedy blows
should always fellow treachery and cowardice.

and it could not' be extended farther unless the
city authorities consented to vacate the street.
The area of 'that navy yard Is but seventeen

abreact of the wharf, and the Government bad. conse

complish that. Mr. Geemss said that the Department
had recommended, end the' Naval Committee were
