THE WAR.
The nrcp.NT msn-ttementof the war in the South
weet inert* with disfavor among the people. The
press, haling iht current of public opinion, is be
ginning to discern enormous discrepancies, both in
the plans hi d the execution of thorn. The idea for
which the Western 'men'have boon battling so
bravely is being neglected. Tho opening of the
lower Mississippi to the navigation of unarmed Oat
boats and steamers will be temporarily abandoned.
The grand Army of the West, now scattered over
suoh a vast area of territory, posted in small divi
’ sions, unable to support eaoh other, is powerless to
make any considerable advance, and must patiently
await reioforeemenis and the preparation of a
new military plan of operations. If wo might
bo permitted to direct attention to a oardina!
fault in the management of this war, we would
bring forward an inceptive one in this fact, that
(he war has been prosecuted under small, eon
traofed plans, strangely out of gear very often
with what seems to have been, if it is not now,
tie grand governmental soheme to crush the re
bellion, Identity of sotion, concordance in all
the have been wanting Some of the
blame for this may be laid to political dishonesty
and uncalled-for inilueiice, but the lack of a
gri at directing mind is evident This is made
manifest in a review of the original'plan for
opening the Mississippi river, which was sub
stantially as follows: A strong column of national
troops was to move down the west bank of
the rivor, having St. Louis for its fortified
base of supplies; another column was to move
southeast from Kansas oity, through tho States of
Missouri and Arkansas, to be composed ef '‘jay
hawkers, Indians, negroes, and everything that
would fight,for the Union ;” a third column was
to move down the east bank of the river, accom
panied.,by iron-olad gunboats, The advance of
these columns was to be slow and sure; no back
ward step was to be taken, vrhiie the mouth of the
rivor was to be blockaded so that the enemy couid
receive no supplies from abroad. Had this plan
been carried out faithfully from the first it would
have been eminently successful, aod long before
this it would have boon, the evident interest of the
peopleoif Kentucky, Tennessee, Missouri, Arkansas,
Louisiana, and Texas to stand by the Union and
uphold the Constitution and the laws of the laod
This plan has been neglected and ignored, and many
of our military movements in the Southwest seem
to have been made from an immediate necessity
to do something hero or there, very often to pro
tect conditional Unionists; and now we arc told that
Gen, Curtis and Commodore Davis have arrived at
Cairo to hold an Important consultation oonoerning
the future conduct of the war in the Southwest, or
rather on too west bank of the Mississippi. As the
siege of Vicksburg has been abandoned temporarily,
Admiral Farragut’s fleet will probably return to
New Orleans. Vicksburg would bo of little use to
us now unless we can prevent the inroads of rebels
above it end within our own lines, and wa now be
hold the disgrace ful speetaole of a large army in the
"West divided up into small divisions, and ha
rassed by itinerant parties of guerillas. Hence
forth we must completely subdue tho rebels, and
possess the ? land as our armies move on, leaving
no spies or robbers in our rear. This would seem ,
like a dull, stow way of advancing, but it is the
most effective mode of reducing a really insurgent
country to submission, without enacting heart-rend
ing scenes, unworthy of modern times. It wa3
thus that the distinguished Marshal boult kept
quiet ptssession of Andalusia, feeding and paying
his own army, and raising good troops from the in
habitants, who proved of great servioe in prevent
ing the Spanish guerillas and otW forces from
entering and occupying that fenilo country.
Soult kept peaceable possession of Andalusia
in this, way, until the blunders of others, and.-
tb. empire, ren
dered it necessary for the armies of Prance
io evacuate Spain, and then he left Andalusia in a
most perfect state of security from the guerillas/
who had rendered all the rest of Spain little better
than a desert; for it must bo acknowledged that
while these bands of robbers and murderers greatly
harass an army, the brunt of iho harm falls upon
the innocent people who inhabit the-country in
fested by them. We must adopt a regular system
of occupation henceforth, and a fearless and heavy
hand in the pnnisbmont of guerillas, when caught,
will thoroughly clean them out of the land. When
taken, let it be known that they have but one hoar
to live. Then perseverance and patrwtisnx will
give us sure and valuable victory.
THE NhWS.
Gen, Robert McCook, one of the bravest of a
brave family of soldiers hailing from Ohio, has
been murdered in Tennessee by a band of treach
erous guerillas. His death calls for vengeance
Irom'ottr Western troops, and they will visit it upon
the rebels in all future battles
Another ocean steamer has gone down! The
Golden Gale, a favorite steamer of tho San Jr an.
cisco and Panama line, has .been burned to the
water's edge in the Pacific Ocean, near ManzanUla,
a port in Mexico. The Golden Gate bad never run
on this side of Panama, and her burning is the first
acoident; causing loss of life, that has Happened to
any of the vessels of the company owning her, since
their organization.
Three notorious returned rebels were arrested
in Baltimore yesterday, known as John O’Langh
lin, Jubn Brady, and George Clotworthy, and were
securely locked up in the Middle Diatriot Station,
to await an examination before Marshal Van Nos
trand. Fromf the statement made by the police
authorities, it appears that theacensed some time
E ince left Baltimore for the South, and, proceeding
to Richmond, enlisted in the rebel causo. O’Laugh
lin, who used to be a member of the Baltimore City
Guard battalion, and known as an excellent drill
officer, enlisted in company C, Ist Maryland (rebel)
Regiment; Brady carried a musket in company B,
21st Virginia Volunteers, and Clotworthy enrolled
himself in the of artillery attached to the
rebel Maryland regiment. This battery is, accord
ing io the latest accounts, still commanded by Cap
tain R. Bnowden Andrews, architect, lata of Balti
more. Theacensed parties, upon being confronted
by Deputy Marshal Lyons, confessed that they
were members of the above companies, and that
they recently arrived in Baltimore by one of the
Weems steamers. Two of the party are charged
with having been concerned in the conveyance of
letters and papers between Richmond and Balti
more. Gcnoral Wool has ordered them to be sent
to Port McHenry, under the charge of General
Morris.■ . , ,'
The City Councils of Baltimore have passed re
solutions requesting General .Wool to administer
the oath of allegiance to the residents of that oity
at as early a moment as possible. This is urged as
the only way to find out who the rabid Secessionists
are, and what they are doing.
We present to-day an interesting budget of re
bel news from Southern papers to the 2d instant—
the latest received from Richmond. The rebels
are evidently much exercised about our move
ments In, Virginia. #
Gov. Bradford is about to take measures to en
roll the militia of Maryland into the United States
service, under the reoent act of Congress.
Ex-Gov. fIiOKS, of Maryland, hsis received from
the President the comptiineot of an appointment as
brigadier general of volunteers. He was strongly
inclined to accept, but yielded to the remonstrances
of his friends, who urged bis want of military know
ledge as on insuperable objection.
It is said that the war must now end within nine
months. The law authorizing the President to call
out the militia prescribes that term of service.
Gen. Halleek has fixed the number of men he
needs with a fail understanding of the case, and
the oali now made is tantamount to an engagement
on his part to finish np the job and disband the
foroes in 270 days, and it vritl be. done.
A Drafting hoax was successfully palmed off at
the Charlestown (MaBS.) Navy Yard, on Wednes
day, to which certain officials fell victims, leading
to the marking of the lists of workmen in certain
shops, the joke being that every fifth man waste be
drafted at once. Most of them appeared ready to
go, as there was no help for it, but a few grumbled
extensively, and several were highly elated. ' One
young Irishman marched off to a recruiting station
and enlisted, preferring to have a bounty in ex
change dor his freedom, and asked to have his
enlistment dated back. The suspicions of the
knowing ones led to a speedy discovery of the
hoax.
The United States gunboat Paul Jones made an
Important reoonnoissanoe up the Ogeeohee river,
in Georgia, on the 27th and 28 th of June last, en
gaging Fort James, an earthwork on the south
bank of that river. This work was found to be a
strong one, and after inflicting some damage with
shells, the Paul Jones returned, unharmed, to her
anohorsge off.the harbor of Savannah.
Oub news-from Missouri to day is important.
The rebels are said to be concentrating in the
north of the State under Porter and'Poindexter,
two noted, rebel guerilla leaders. These bcouu
drels hare just succeeded in capturing a Union
mail-haek en route for New Mexioo.
In none of our operations against the rebellion
have we been so unsucocs-ful as in our stone block
ades. Even while John Bull was howling over the.
cruelty which he himself had practised in Savannah
river, our sunken ships were shifting their position
in Charleston harbor, and ihe channel gradually
deepening. Now the harbor of Charleston is ap
parently ns free of access as if no stone floet had
been sunk Ihero. The cause of this is the nature
of the bottom, it beiog almost a quicksand.
Thb Albany Earning Journal eaya it is re
quested by the surgeon general to state 11 that doc
tors’ certificates of disability”' will be of uo earthly
avail except for mere State service. Under the or
der from the War Department, everybody within
oortain ago? —without reference to his physical
condition—will be subject to draft. If, a ter they
haveJbeen drafted, they are found to .be disabled,
they will bo exempted. People, therefore, who run
to their pbysioiaos to get certificates of physical
unfitness to "shoulder arms,” waato their*time and
breath in vain. ... .• .
The ordor for a draft for men is driving the trai
tors out of Baltimore. They are leaving for
Canada; Europe, and Cuba, to avoid beiog forced to
do their duty as Americans. “ The country will be
the better for it ” - ~
General Cass and Senator Chandler of Michi
gan, have each subscribed Si,ooo to the War Fuad
in Detroit.
The decisive action of the' Secretary of
War in arresting the editors of the Harrisburg
Patriot and Union meets with the universal
approval of Ihe community. The offence of
McDowell was one of the most ff grant that
could be committed, and it only appears more
heint-us when we take into cons deration the
fact that the result might not only have been
the .cessation of ail recruiting, but a riot
between the colored and white laboring
people of Harrisburg similar to the riot
lhat recently took place in Brooklyn. The
name of - a United States Senator was
forged to give color to tho outragr, and
eves y method was taken to animate and in
flame the public mind. It ceuld not have
bten intended as a political canurd —-a mere
violation of truth too often permitted in
political campaigns to serve a party ■' purpose,
or gratify personal spleen. There was every
o.vidchee of malignity and crime. The offence
was committed secretly—the types were clan
destinely seVand the handbills printed in a
surreptitious manner. An effort was made on
the part of the principal offender to throw the
odium of the crime onasubordinateemployee.
Everything exhibited deliberation, hatred, and
treason, and the war authorities did well to
punish the offence with severity and prompti
tude.
This case is suggestive of many arguments,
we have had occasion to make in these
columns. We have, from time to time, ad
monished the people of this community that
in their midst a a*. cret treasonable organization
existed with the purpose to break down the
Union feeling in the North, and, by paralyzing
the existing loyal and patriotic sentimsnt,
terminate the war, and compel a recognition
of the Confederacy. The most effective
way to accomplish, this would be to stop
- recruiting, and hence the effort off every
traitor in the country, has been devo
ted to this end. Horrible Calumnies have
been put into circtilatiou in relation to the ob- •
jects of the war ,- the motives of men have
been subjected to base appeals; the most atro
cious lies have been published in relation to
sickness and death, disaster and defeat, aud
every prejudice has been animated into hatred
against the Union and its friends. The case
of McDo well has no persona! application.
It only proves all that has been said in rela
tion to the conspiracy against tbe Union, and
shows one of the methods by which that con
spiracy proposed to be efficient. There are
men in Philadelphia as guilty as McDowell.
They sympathize with his punishment and de
fend his crime, and speak in indignant terms
of his incarceration in Fort McHenry. He
is an injured Democrat—the victim of tyranny
—the object of Presidential persecution; and
his wrongs w ll be the topic of many a pi
thetic pamphlet and indignant editorial. Al
ready we hear men ready and anxious to de
fend his outrage, although In doing so they
defend forgery, falsehood, and inciting to riot.
- To men like these whatean we say ? Nothing
the Administration can do ; no triumph of our.
armies; no success of our diplomacy; no ex
hibition of courage or statesmanship; bo nfe_
can "winT their sympathy, or
call forth tbeir admiration. When men are
'traitors they are beyoiid,repentance or ad
monition. There is but one thing remaining.
They must be made to feel that,t he treason they
profess is incompatible wi'<ii‘the safety of the
Republic, and can no longer bo tolerated. We
are weary and sick with these men, Lost to
every sense of manhood—devoted to a rebel
lion which is murdering our brothers, wasting
our treasure, and attacking our nationality—
they labor unceasingly and forever to produce
division and defeat, while at the same time
they enjoy the protection of our Government
and the blessings they seek to destroy. When
shall this domestic treachery come to an end ?
This long silence of the rebels is ominous.
With the exception of an occasional recon
noissance, raid, or extension of pickets, Gen.
McClellan’s army has heard nothing of the
exultant foe for four or five weeks. This is
nil the more strange since the rebels have every
provocation from their own condition,. and
every inducement from ours, to concentrate
all their strength for an immediate and deci
sive blow. Looking at their side, we see them
deluded into the idea that the series of battles
on the Chickahominy resulted in their favor;
but delusion or not, such a belief; thoroughly
infused through shattered columns, is worth
reinforcements of ten thousand men; and
when the rebels burl themselves, upon us
again, every man wilt be .clad in a bullet-proof
vest of faith in himself and bis fellows. We
shall have to hack and hew a long while at.
this, spiritual armor before we can make; the
body underneath vulnerable. Again, either,
their force in the late conflict has bean greatly
overrated or their loss as greatly underrated by
us, or theirpresent inaction is due to some other
reason than any material deficiency. But we
have now got a pretty accurate estimate both
of their roll call and their dead-list; we know
that they considerably outnumbered us in the
attack, though not to such extent as was at
' first supposed; and we are equally certain
that ‘ their mortality was greater , than ours,
partly because' of the reckloaaness of life
which seemed to be their prime military
maxim, and partly because of our superiority
in artillery. Vet their excess of loss was
probably not more than proportionate to their
advantage of numbers, and their army must
even now bear the same numerical relation 1 to
.ours that it bore before the battles of June.
Without considering, then, our own absolute
position, but only the rebels’ advantages, as
derived from a comparison of their former
with their present relation to us, tho curious
question recurs, Why do they not follow up
the impressions, favorable to their cause,
which they suppose they m de by driving ns
back to the James river ?
And the foreign incitement—how is it that
that does hot arouse them to some dashing en
terprise, even if the balance of risks is against
them ? The reward is high. A sympathetic
European public received joyfully the bulletins
that announced our disasters on the Chicka
hominy. A jubilant “We told you so” ran
Ihrough the birth-lands of despotism. The
most sanguine British Secessionists had been
somewhat depressed as every steamer brought
news of our slow but sure countervallation of
Richmond. But when, by one terrific rush, the
siege had been raised and the besieging party
flung far and violently back, hopes, sedition
begotten, ran high again. Expectation soared
up to its acme. The bulls of Southern malice
stock tossed it high, on the horns of McClel
ian’s dilemma. The shilly-shallyers, who
evermore delight to dangle their marrowless
legs across the fence that is supposed to
separate right from wroDg, honor irom in
famy, loyalty from treachery, were suddenly
inspired with a definite purpose, and be
came violent champions of the persecuted
but self-avenging chivalry. Everybody for
got the past; everybody gloried in the present ;
everybody looked eagerly to the future, only
to be disappointed. Succeeding news rather,
untwisted the .Southern crown, steamer
after steamer failed to show anyoadvantage
which was confidently prophesied would accrue
from the claimed victory. Iniact,jKFi'Eßsot!
Davis has lost, or is very rapidly losing, his
chance. The great prize of European con
ciliation is slipping through his fingers. He
must know it as well as we do, and must feel
it with considerably greater keenness. Why,
then, does he not make even a desperate
move? ■.
Is he waiting for inducements hold oat by
our weakness? He bos them now iu greater
numbers and strcngth.ihan he will ever have
them again. His antagonist’s very life de
pends on a stream whose navigation can be
made doubtful and difficult, to say the least.
His positron is commanded -by bluffs oh tho
opposit e s’de. He is unable to hold any of
the surrounding country, or prevent the foe
from betnming him in on three sides. His
command is broken and weakened, and seems,
if ever army seemed, dooms d. Why, then,
are not the r ebel leaders stirring 1
The question’s answer is to be found by de«
trying its implied supposition. The rebels are
stilting, and so me we. No great masses of
tioops are being lmrried from point to pointj;
not niany largerccorinoissances are made; no
half-engagements vary the monotony of camp
lifepnot even picket-skirmishes call outsuppnrts
at midnight.. But there is going on an'.im-'
mense, though sileDtj Ocftiufy of idea; vast
marshallings of brain force ; quick manoeuvring
of plans; raliyihgs agaiost attacks of threatened
counter-attacks; feints— all the resources
which ingenuity can devise to avert destruc
tion and defend a desperate position. The
Peninsula is to-day a scene off as great acti
vity as it has ever been; brave hearts and bold
heads are silently struggling to stave off an im
pending late. They have done nobly, but the
end of their exertions .is near. '/■ This terrible
play of mind-force must soon be exhausted.
Military genius can do much in its naked
fctrergili ; but it cannot do everything nor al
ways. It must have practical embodiment—
material means. ’ ;
Give it these, men of the North ! Reward
the fearful strug.los that have racked the
best energies of your leaders in your behalf!
Flock to tho banner that floats—still fl»ats,
and will forever float—over the Army of the
Potomac. Give, by your presence aud your
work, George B, McClellan; an opportunity
to work out bis earefuhy so atured plans, aud
you wiff march into Richmond in October,
and back to rescued homes in spring.;

munieate much became of his parole, but declares
that'Richmond has hot been evacuated, and that
there are no signs ol pestilence there, though there
is a vast amount of sickness among the rebel troops.
The rebel army lies mostly east of Richmond, and
our informant is confident, from what he loarned,
that its effective numbers have; been greatly, ex
aggerated. He has the usual story about provisions
and high prices. “Stonewall” Jackson was at
Gordonsville, so it was stated in Richmond, with
from fifteen to twenty thousand men.

i The Chase of the Steamer Herald.
Captain Gansevobt, of the steamer Adirondack,
has informed the Navy Department of tho facta
attending the recent pursuit by him of the steamer
Herald, represented by the Nassau papers to be a
British vessel; this pretence affording an opportu
nity for the expression of indignation against the
alleged outrage by the American officer. By
bis statement it appears that the Herald had been
running from Nassau to Charleston with warlike
supplies, and was returning to Nassau With cotton.
She was commanded by a man named Coxsrtter,
who was formerly captain of the pirate Jeff. Davis.
The account additionally confirms the statement
that the British flag is systematically used to ad
vance .Secession interests. The chase *of the
Herald was not continued within the British juris

Rebels to Retake Malvern Hill.
EXCHANGE OF PRISONERS.
Headquarters of the Armt of THS!
Potomac, Thursday,; Aug. 7.
At Malvern Hill everything was quiet during
yesterday.;
It was. reported last night, by deserters and con
trabands, that the rebels had been moving from
the vicinity of Richmond all day, in large fbroe,
towards Malvern Hill, with a view of retaking the
position.
Three thousand and nine exchanged prisoners
arrived y esterday afternoon from Riohmond. Those
who belong to this army and are fit for duty were
sent to their regiments. The others will leave for
the North to-day. No officers were among the
P»rty. .
There is ne truth that this army is used to pro
tect rebel property, ns reported in the case of Hill
Carter. During the two days’ battle of Malvern
Hill from 800 to 1,000 wounded Union men had their
wounds dressed at this house, the ladies freely tear
ing up their sheets and pillow-cases for bandages,
While the army was passing a guard was posted to
protect the women and children. The horses and
oattle are grassed on bis farm, and his negroes are
working upon our fortifications, all applications for
their return having been refused.

FROM THE ARMY OF VIRGINIA.
Camp near Litti.e Washington, Aug.'2.—No
thing cam exceed the gratification with which the
President’s order respecting absentees njom the
army was received by most of tho officers and men
of the Army of Virginia. While there'are many
instances of necessary absence from the ranks, the
number is infinitely small compared withithose who
are absent from motives of pleasure or ease: Be
sides reducing the force to a dangerous minimum,
it causes dissatisfaction among those compelled to
remain. Hitherto the reward offered for deserters
was too insignificant to induce any attempt to re
store absentees, who, consequently, remained •at
home fearless of punishment.': The am
vers all these deficiencies of legislation, land pro
mises to go fer toward Inbre'asing the and file
of the army. ' ’j
There is, however,'another subjoot of complaint
among military' commanders. It is, that'but sel
dom men who are. sent to, the general hospital ever
find their way hack to the ranks. Manyinstances
have come tothe knowledge of your oorrelpondent. .
It was bnt yesterday a colonel st&tod that, after
various fruitless endeavors to learn the whereabouts
of one of bis men, he was at last reported as a

respondent has often; been requested to call atten
tion to these facts.
'■ Since tho review yesterday, the camps, ; to a oasual
observer, have been remarkably not indi
cating any immediate aotion; but the presence of
General Pope, and bis conferences .with his chief
commanders, are significant of,something about to
be done. 'I

Mr. Flint, who is reported lost, was a man of
middle age, arid bad lived in San Francisco sinoe
February, 1861. He leaves a wife, who is now
temporarily residing near. New. York. He was for
merly an agent for the Pacific; Mail Steamship

H. Webb, at New York, in 1850. Heir dimensions
are asfollows: Length 265 feet, breadth 40 feet,
depth’.of hold 30 feet. Her draught, of >water was

The Golden Gate was a fast vessel, and could ac
commodate about 900 passengers, besides a large
quantity of freight. She was rated at the Uuder
wri’ers’ A 2, and her securities against fire were re
corded “good.” Sbo had two independent fire
pumps, and sufficient hose, buckets, axes, Ac. She
cjtrried from eight to twelve boats, sufficient to.
carry several hundred persons.
The Golden Gate was repaired in 1856, ’5B, ’59,
and latterly she has been put in excellent order.
There is no doubt that her light upper works, being
thoroughly aired by the tropical sun, have, when
ignited, burnt, furiously, and it was beyond the
power of iuan to stay the flames. Some of the boats,
no doubt; which were stowed on deck were con
sumed before they could be launched.
