TUESDAY, AUGUST 26, 1862 THE WAR. From tho Army of Virginia wo have no further important news. The opposing armies have not changed their positions since last aooounts. No battle of any magnitude has been fought, as was anticipated, on Sunday, and there are indications that the rebels, haring faded in their designs of de stroying. Pope’s army and entering Maryland, are contemplating a retreat, which; from. the strong and threatening position of our forces, will be, at least, a dangerouß experiment. In the meantime, General McClellan's army is roinforoing the Army ’ of Virginia, and every avenue of advance is held inconsiderable force, so that our troops maybe ready to move forward at any time, if it be deemed expedient by tbe Commander-in-chief. As we predicted some days since, the rebels have boen unable to beep a very large army on tho banks of tho Rappahannock, from a want of means o r trans portation and supply, and especially as the souroe of the latter wauld be threatened from two points probably. Some attention will now bo directed to tile valley of the Shenandoah, as it is understood that a considerable force of rebels passed; through iStsnnordßviHo Gap with a view of entering and making raids in the valley. In the main, the rebel ‘ advance, setting aside its boldness and the rapidity with which i: was executed, has been a failure, and we believe future advices will hear us out in the assertion. All was quirt during yesterday on ‘the line of our defences. THE NEWS, '' Bv we have European dates to the •14th and 10th. The nows is not important. An ‘advance in cotton of i«2d is announced. Bread stuffs exhibited a .decline in prices, with a down ward tendency. Provisions dull. Consols closed in London on the 1-Uh at 03 for money. . Qov.

Butler at New Orleans, in foroing those Who subscribed most liberally to the Con federate Government to furnish means for the re lief of the poor of Nashville. ’ "William H. Hurlbukt, a noted Times corre spondent, has made his escape from: Richmond. —oidV&svouj* and return thence wasdetooted and seized by a mob,'wbe refused to deliver him on Benjamin’s order.' Finally,| he reaohed Riohmond, under 'arrest, and was handed over to Governor Letcher, who dislikedhim, and induced Benjamin to with ‘hold his objection to his further detention. He was vobitfined in prison by Letoher’s or dor until last January, when he was released, and kept under surveillance. Since January ho has been residing ‘in a Union family, and acquainted with officials whose loyalty to the Union was sufficient to induce them to wish .that they oould accompany him. on bis flight, and give him facilities therefor. He; escaped by way of Hanover Court House into the Shenandoah Valley. ■ Thb Grenada -Appeal of the 15th .instant pub lishes a letter from Captain J. N'. Brown, com ■marider ot tie Arkansas, to Gen. Breckinridge, in : which he says the crow and officers, without loss, • got on the benk of; the river opposite Baton Rouge. They succeeded; in: getting 'nearly; opposite Fort Hudson, when they, were probably' overtaken by <the enemy's horse. It is believed that Lieut. 11. ! R. Stevens, with moat of his menand a minhor of her officers, was captured. The letter states that the reason of-the Arkansas not partioipating in tha' battle w>s not because'she was aground, but be cause her machinery would not wbrk. The letter ‘says further that, after the crew had reached the whore and were wandering about, they approached; -a hand of guerillas who ran away out of sight of ' them without waiting to find out who they were. ; Afterwards, as Captain Brown supposes, they fell 'in with a band of-Federal horse who didn’t run away, but took them prisoners. - ;We continue our extraots from Southern papers to-day, giving the rebel views ofJackson’s victo ry at Slaughter Mountain,” the cotton crop, and the cartel adopted for the exchange of prisoners." * Asa matter of history, we present a letter from ; Yorktown describing the recent retreat of the Army. ■of the, Potomac'down the Peninsula to that point." Late 'advicbs from the Southwest; show in creased activity in all the Departments. \ General ‘Rosecrans has taken the field at the head of 30,000 men, and a number of brigadiers have been as signed to active duty by Gen.

There is every indi cation that a very fine heavy brigade of Irishmen, •to oonsist of two regiments from New York pity, , Colonel Heenan's regiment from this, and perhaps an additional one; a regiment .from Albany and Troy,'and a squadron of oavalry’from Massachu setts and Connecticut, will be raised by the great personal popularity of this distinguished soldier.;.

Miss ChARiHE Smith,, Miss Fanny Hopkins, Miss Florida Neal,.Miss Norma Smith; Miss Btne line Neal, Miss Alide Neal. and Mrs. George Neal, Jr., seven interesting Secesh ladies of Parkersburg, Virginia, were sent to Wheeling for certain causes, and, having plrimply refused to take the oath of allegiance,-they were all snugly stowed away in one of the rooms of the jail. ■ Towardi-evoning, when the novelty of inoarceration began to wear off, they all concluded to take the oath, after doing . which they were released. , ; ,By the arrival home of the Halt Arctic Exploring Expedition we have Some interesting details of the discovery of many relios of the Frobisher, Frank lin, and other expeditions.

He entered Parliament in 1882, as an ultra- Beformer, in which capacity the House of Assembly of Lower Canada appointed him its . salaried agent, in 1835, during its dis pute with the Home Government. All through what was caUed ‘< The. Papineau Rebellion” of 1886-'B7, Mr. Roebuck defended Canada and her rights—so vehemently, that his 'constituents refused to re-elect him in 1887, on the plea that he was a rebellious firebrand, , and he remained four years out of Parliament then. Of course, his Canadian salary ceased, so he has ever since worked very earnestly; against Canadian interests. "With him, it was “•no pay*; no alliance.” Too lazy to work at his profession of the law, he has, of kite yew's, entered into a number of speculative joint fltock associations, in which his position and advocacy as Parliament man have been ac cepted as the equivalent for the capital which he should bring in. Two years ago, being what in vulgar parlance is called « hard-up,” the;beiglng-box was passed round to raise a flum sufficient to maintain him without labor. A man in such a needy position is so access! We to pecuniary temptation that, considering how lately and how violently he has come into the. Hitlo knot of Confederate partisans in the House of Commons, one cannot-help suspect-* ing that his advocacy is less that of a high, minded politician than of a hungry lawyer pleading for his clients for a heavy fee, and with no other brief than a copy Cf the memo rable* one, “We have no case, no reply to this action, but be sure to abuse the plaintiff’s attorney,” National Money-Borrowing. Who that has read is likely to forget the downright abuse directed against us by the English press, on account of the « l ex : trmgance,” (as they insolently called «) /by / which we raised money for the necessaryex petdiluro of a war into which wa were plunged by the most causeless treason that ever reared its hydra-head m any country. The motive of such attacks is known—we raised the money among ourselves, without the intervention of foreign capitalists. We neither called -upon EoxUscuttn nor upon Baking. We did not apply to Mr. Peabody, who bestows $760,000, in hard cash, as a gut to London'pauperism, but is so much occu pied in entertaining the British aristocracy with white-bait dinners, at Greenwich and Richmond, that he has not yet found time to think of sending a dollar .over to his country men. Had we gone into the European money markets, we could have done any amount of borrowing, greatly to the advantage of Rorus cnitn, Baking, Baxes, Peabody, and other money dealers. We , preferred an , appeal to the patriotism and tile wealth of our fellow citizens, and the result, showing the patriotism and the:substance of our people, has astonish ed Europe. Our National Debt, which has been con tracted solely through the rebellion of the South, necessarily involves the payment of annual interest to the lenders, the public cre ditors of the country. How much may that ’rate of interest average? About five per cent; per annum on the whole amount, where as the legal rate of interest in Pennsylvania is sue, in New York is seven per cent., and iu some other States is still higher. It rarely happens that the Government :of a country can borrow money at cheaper rates than pri vate individuals have to pay for it. .Yet, we have done this, and, if needed, we can do it again. Our 7.30 loan, •which constitutes not a'very great portion of our national indebtedness, is constantly thrown in our teeth by the news paper scribes who are commissioned to run down our public credit. They fancy, we pre sume, that we are ignorant or forgetful of the history of British finance. IVo would ask whether to pay even 7.30 per cent, for every ,$lOO is not a better bargain than, as in England, during the present century, to ; receive ffiS,- - imjier-immey at live per cenrr With the obilga tion of repaying it in gold—every twenty-one ■ shillings in gold (the old guinea) being worth a pound note, or twenty.shillings, and seven ; sbtilings? Or, to put another caso, let us take Pur’s famous Loyalty Loan in 1796. Mr. Pitt wanted to raise million sterling, ($90,000,000,) and to get the whole amount without'any deduction.' . His ‘terms wore that every person subscribing £lOO should receive £ll2 in five per cent, stock, which the holder might realize, to he paid at par, at the end of two'years. The whole amount was subscribed in fifteen hours and twenty minutes. Consid ering ihe fiscal condition of England now and then, this contract was far more costly than our seven-thirty loan. We mention it to show how thoroughly applicable to English writers Of this day’is thb old proverb which suggests the inconvenience of peisons who ’ glass-houses of throwing stones at their neigh bors’ windows. Yet , more:—we have not gone into the Stock Exchange of London or the Bourse of Paris.to'raise' mLoney for" tills" war, into which we have been precipitated, and which we must carry on to final and undoubted success. At present, half; a dozen Foreign Powers are = negotiating for-loans in the London .numey niarket. fhoy offer high interest, and,; in some cases, rather doubtful security "They will obtain the money, because cupidity is a reigning passion in,the money-lending men of the old world, and, owing to the decline of trade there, they can obtain very- little for the use of their capital at homo. ' jit a moment, an English journalist confesses, « whoa the .rate of discount for the best bills is only 1J to If per cent, per; annum, when , only 1 or If per cent, is obtained for loans on.deposit or 1 ‘ at caiP with 'the-banks and discount establish ments, and when the supply of all homo rail way stocks .possessing preferential rights or guarantees is so limited that an 'investment of magnitude can hardly be effected in them at all, foreign stocks, offering and actually paying rates ot interest varying from 5 to 11 pir cent, per annum, naturally possess- a strong attraction.” .‘ " Even 2 per cent., if a small, would be a se * cure investment, until money came into rnoTe demand, and therefore •of greater value for the purposes of trade and commerce. At this rinomeht, seven new foreign loans are on the tapis in the London-stock market-amounting 'to about $100,000,600, The_bpKjawer«-a»r _Eussia,.Tnike^™ lt^iTC _ H)west rate of interest -offered being 5 per cent., or four times as much as the banks .lend money for, and the -highest rate) which is offered bv Turkey, being ;11 per, cent. For $25,000,000 which Portu gal wants, as much &s seven per cent, is.to be paid. “ The sick man,” being already largely in debt, and without any reasonable prospect of increased revenue, Ras to pay eleven per cent. . It-follows-that had we,, as a' nation, commencing tomorrow with a clear financial record, and with aiapidly augmenting money producing' population—had we gomt to the European'mohey-market, we might have had any' quantity of moßey that we cared to borrow; and almost at any rate. We preferred . to use our own resources, and the rate of in " terest which we shall pay on the advances: averages only five per cent. ■ Of course,; the ; seven loans, which are on hand in' England; will all be raised, . In some . cases) most probably, the lenders will finally lose interest and .principal, as was /the. case with the advances to-Mexico.’. The immediate result ;will soon be apparent. One hundred' million dollars exported from England, In specie, to foreign borrowers, cannot fail to .affect the circulation there, and we cannot ! contemplate; such a result without apprehen sion, because whattyer affects the financial ; and .commercial, interests of England must re act upon this country. The point which we desired to illustrate, of English sneers at our extravagance in borrow ing,is made cleav by two facts—first) vthe low average rate of interest at which we have bor rowed, and next, the fact that other borrowers ’are offering, greatly; more (in one case more than double) than we pay..- , ’lhe’grqvdmeA’ of ;onr offence was, that we did -not go to Europe for the money we needed. \ ' 5 It will he seen by reference to our Wash ington columns that Senator Pomeroy, by re quest of the President, proposes organizing emigration parties of free colored persons for settlement in Central America. The advan tages offered are most liberal, and undoubt edly they will be largely availed of, espe cially among that class who have received good educations, and whose pride rebels at the prejudice and indignities which are ungene, rously heaped upon them in the lmd of occupy the highest political positions. Men naturally look upwards. They prefer being with superiors. Through them;. they gain ideas, and add both to their mental and social progress. Educated men of African descent have, in many cases, avoided both Liberia and Hayti, for the simple reason that the appliances of civilization exist in a greater degree at homo. Taken in the mass, they are more artistic- than whites, and seek the novelty and excitement of large cities, where music, plays; arid a daily flood of journalistic literature is to he. found,.. The black race are essentially social and dislike isolation. If the Govern-' ment can induce a thousand of their leading people to adopt its proposition, they will entrain a large colony in their wake. Much depends, however, on the pecuniary prospects offered.

LETTER FROM ** OCCASIONAL ” Washington, August 25,18G2. It would be useless to conceal the fact that th<*c is some anxiety; felt in the city as to the movements of our armies in Virginia. The announcement of the order .of General Hal leck, excluding, newspaper, correspondents from the line, has strengthened thia'feeling. Those busy and erratic gentlemen, in many cases more sinned against than sinning, have the confidence of the community, arid now that there are indications of their going home, people asf anxiously about Virginia. They • give us many a delightful paragraph, although not as careful as they might be of giving unan thorized information. We are sometimes at a loss whether to admit or reject the truth of man/ things they tell ns; but their very deceptions are pleasarit,.and easily to be. endured. Much of the mystery that hangs dyer the movements in Virginia would be dispelled did we hove a morning bulletin of news and opinions from the Special Correspondent. When he ceases to write, it is ominous; he is never silent over good news, and never snfl'ers an interdic tory order when- called upon to describe a 1 victory. •!; On the street I hear there has been trouble, but I see no evidence of it; and in quarters known to be well informed, I hear nothing afiirmatory or definite. As I intimated in a recent letter, when speaking of this subject, Pope is merely trailing his army around this districtj to manoeuvre the enemy into a lino position for advancing or retreating. Of course there are many advantages to be gained. Pope has the enemy in an ex hausted country. The Federals have oaten their bread, and consumed their substance.: They are away from their base of supplies; they have no large river j onr iron-clads con trol the James, have undisputed -possession of the llappahannoclc. They are in an exhausted country. They could not im- promise the commissary or cpartermaster’s position. They must drag their artillery long and weary miles. They may have, advanced to attack Pope with three days’ rations, but it they did the time is up— the rations are consumed, and, instead of an army to cause terror; and dismay, they have a •hungry, wistful multitude,, who think, with sonrow_of theLr^Rj&Jft&VaTiJFfSmeflimg to eat.', , . This is a common* sense view of a very em barrassing: subject. lam anxious that the people should know precisely what the situa tion is. IVe are concentrating all our armies for a contest in Eastern Virginia, and, per haps, .over the very ground around wbioh General Pope is now manoeuvring the great battle of the age may be fought. Already, there are great armies on either side, but the armies that are now being enrolled and en listed are even more ■ magnificent. In a very short time they will be in the field face to lace in combat such armies as the worid has never seen. The issue of i£is struggle will decide the war—and as the issue of this struggle will certainly be victory, you may]soon look for a final, dear-bougbt, and ex terminating triumph. Occasional.

Horace Greeley’s Reply to the President’s The admirable letter of the President, in reply to an aitlclo publicly addressed to him by Horace Greeley,' has elicited the following if joinder, which appeared in yea terity'n Tribune; We do not suppose Mr. XiUcoin will farther continue this newspaper correspondence: . Peak Sir : Although I did not anticipate nor seek any .reply .to .my former letter unless through'your official acts, X thank you for having accorded one, since it ena- .

I intended to raise this question :•« “Bo you propose to do this by re cognizing, obeying, and enforcing the laws,' or by igno ring, disregarding, and, in effect, defying them ? 35 . 1 stand upODthe law of the land.

There is not in Mew York to-day a man who really believes m slavery, loves it, and desires its perpetuation, who heartily desires the crushing out of the rebellion.

FOR ADDITIONAL LOCAL NEWS SEE FOURTH PAWR-J Military Matters— Recruiting for THE REGIMENTS IN THE FIELD.—The muster rolls of recruits for the old regiments,begin to present a more creditable appearance, and the: exclusive offer of large Government bouutiea to those enlisting in these or ganizations will materially assist in filling up the deci mated ranks of the noble corps now representing Phila delphia in the army. The withdra vat of competition in this respect will he productive of the greatest benefit, and, as the time, allowed for the continuance of .bounty money to.- the now regiments has Just expired, it is pro bable thatithis consideration will exemplify itself In the increase of immediatereihforcementsfor McClellan. All necessary arrangements have, been completed for , forwarding the new recruits to their destination with the least possible delay. Upon being mustered into Bervice, they receive at ronce the bounties of the General and State Governments, with the premium awarded by, the city, making a total of $B5. To this is added one month’s - pay ($l3) In advance,* upon their arrival at camp. The men are provided with comfortable barracks in this city until sent to join their different.regiments; ample rations are also furnished, and every provision made for their comfort The new barracks are located In Swanson Street, below Christian; the: large building Used as a storehouse for packing hamß, etc, having been set apart for the purpose. First Lieutenants O. B . Griffiths and J. 8. Richl are in command. The number of men received yesterday atthe barracks was 56, making the total at present awaiting transporta tion 203, of which number about one hundred will be seat forward to-day. The preference in rebrniting generally appears to favor Bush's Cavalry. Gosline’s Zouaves, and the 3d Reserves, with a moderate sprinkling of recruits for other, regiments of the Reserve Corps. The 2d Regiment Pennsylvania Reserves; composed exclusively bf companies from this city, has been se riously diminished in numbers by its -creditable partici- , patiou in the recent b .tiles before Richmond; * Captain P. McDonough, Co- B, and First Lieut. John Curley, Co. D, have opened a lecruiting elation at No. 108 Soath Sixth street, where those desirous of, joining a praise worthy organization of disciplined soldiers will obtain all the information they desito. . Gur citizens will remember this regiment as having been almost incapacitated for the field, by the desertion of nearly one-half its force, at Sandy Rook, Md. Its original complement, when ; leaving.Camp Washington, Easton,'was 970 men, of which-number about 400 sud denly decamped, after reaching" the"'above.’ named place.: So complete was the stampede, that in one company but twelve men were left. This company (B) was afterwards recruited in Philadelphia; an officer of the regiment be* ing immediately detailed- for that purpose. Colonel McCandieis, a well-known Philadelphian,'assumed .com mand of the regiment, immediately upon the resignation of Colonel William B, Mann, and greatly, distinguished himself-for gallantry and ability in the late ; severe con tests w ith a desperate enemy. * He la highly Bpoben of as a tacticiau, and fully relied upon by his men in the hour of danger. : . " ' -■ The present forceof the regiment, including a company of about 80 men (from Lancaster,-which arrived atHar rieon’s Landing upon the, exodus of the army from Its previous perilous situation, does not exceed 500 men. Aug. Cross, a talented young officer, is the adjutant, having formerly joined the regiment as sergeant major and been promoted for meritorious services.
