THE WAR
Tux first astonishment is over. Tho first'terrOx

again. The . firet tingling crimson of rage and mor

drum ; the cowardly and the. ohivalrons;. the
loyaliat and the stealthy have
passcd through their first rush of feeling, and
are able now to ask . oaltnly the meacing of
our position,,'lhe cast of our prospects. What,
they, does qhe rebel • occupation of Maryland
soil mean, In a purely military Raped ? To the' .
mind of the profealiouat soldier there may be 'buts.
one reply; in the view of, the intelligent civiliaa
there are several replies. 'First, it 'may be "ei
"raid" upon . a magnificent scale; if this is the.
design, the ritidAvill ,not be carried very far from:
the Pot-mac base . 'oPerations; or, se
condly, it may be is ;part . of a conaistent
military plan. In this case,. the rebels 'will,
either, strike for Baltimore, (or its vicinity,)
thereby securing 'prestige and plunder, starving
Washington into a surrender, and preventing the
further Banding of reinforcements South ; or
they may march immediately' northward to the
state capital, proceeding thenoo eastward to our
pity, or westward to the - disk towns . that lie
between Harrisburg and Pitbbiirg. ilia objec
tions to the ccraid" theory are drawn rather
"from common senile 'than military science:
Granted that the rebels succeed in amassing eon-
Bidet:Ole open by rapid incursions into our State;
still, their retreat, whether by the Shenandoah
valley or the Manassas route, would be terribly
endangered ;,,and. even supposing them to have
chopped their way through, they arrive in Rich
mond about as poor as they started, and having .
ioflioted no more dewlap than they have rim:livid."
The objeoilenn to an advance on 'Baltimote ara,:
first, theitheCitYliunder Union• guni; and would..
be destroyed before surrendered ; and, secondtt
that the rebels would thus be marching , right into
the teeth of ' the armies to which, by their
roundabout way, they have given plenty of time
to prepare. So, also, an advance to Philadelphia
would have:to be over two sides of a triangle whose
third aide our troops could very rapidly poss.
But there is another movement which we have .
not yet supposed — one due westward. If thisrecerit'
" invasion". it;' as is most probable,' but tho Initial
movement in executing the Eastern half of a really
grand piece of strategy, the rebels will move at
once westward froiu their present position in Ma- .
ryfand, putting ns many days' march as possible
between themselves and our pursuing forces.
They will, of course, subsist on the rich country
through which they pass, leaving ns the desert of
their creation, and their object will be to threaten
Cinoinnati, from the East, and form a junction,
in Ohio, with their other grand army marching up
from the Suutuwest, If this end be attained, ,they
will have every advantage of position, •and, by
maintaining the division of our forces, which they
weuld, thus make, they may defy successfully Our
beat efforts to dislodge them. Then follows their
recognition. by Europe, and then—the failure of the
experiment for the making of which the world's el=
vilisation has been for nineteen hundred years ripen-.

Lethargy slowly scrawls her dull name on them,
they will be but tinder to kindle the conflagration
of our homes.- If honor emblazon their pages, they
will descend to posterity as its dearest heir-loom.
They will bn bound up with the Constitution and

THE unwillingness of the :Government to pat
drafted men into its service is * Shown by the fact
that, in New Jersey, the draft appears to have
been indefinitely Postponed - --Ciovernor Olden not
having taken any practical action on the order. It
is considered probable that many counties and
townships, where the required complement of men
have not been raised, will, by this indulgence, with
the aid . of .privat4 bounties, be enai)led .to muster
even more than the number of men embraced in
the President'vcall. The Draft Commissioner for

EnglanCitiod the: South,
We recently had .oecasion to notice the
moderate tone of leadini ,English journals'on
American politics. Another instance has
come to our knowledge. The,Lisidon
lurnm, generally very an irl ai npoir American!"
?)ooks, notices Mr. Lutes SEENcs's new puti
ilication, (a pamphlet upon the Recognition of
•
the Southern Confederacy,) and criticises it
rwith great power and severity. We repnblish
•this criticism, which tells more truth upon
the relations of the South with John -Bull than
bas forrnd•ittway, of late,into Englishjournals.
'The .4thivreum says titat *idea of the (c South
=being animattd with Eniolniah chivalry, form.
led by European criltarei.k; foollih, and delta.
.sive rhodomontade," and plainly affirms that
to tbe South can offer just no reason what
, ever why they should love England, and that
;in their own hearts the English friends of the
south lean fouun di her simply because _ 04 a i t s ant:

having taken the trouble and gone •to the ex
penes of getting up a second attack upon the
North, Mr. JAMES SPENCE is not likely to
take anything by his motion.

Democrats, in ease. of the success of the robe&

Annan:am Lureour derived from the loyal

would put a more charitable construction on
the doings of these Democrats if the latter
were to consider themselves • whipped, and,
therefore, ready to compromise? • It
far more natural to suppose that the con

the severity of their punishment. The

If there be a portion of the population of
the North for whom the South cherish a mea
sure of respect, it is -the Abolitionists. The
extreme South have always sympathized with
the extreme North ; while 'the chivalry?
have always shown themselves ready to extend
the band of fellowship to those who fought
them with the visor up.
A Word to Oar Adoptid Citizens
One ltfi• the cooliquences of this war, at
which we have •reason to be rejoiced, is the
demonstration of loyalty ow the pert of our
adopted citizens. • Celt and Teuton m . o. : doing
with•each other in suppert of the Union and
:the 'lold flag." • We 'never doubted that such

the country, were engaged in a struggle with a

PHILADELPHIA 8005 TRADE SALE.—This serai
1, annual sale, which was originated here nearly thirty
years ago by. Moses Thom s, Esq., will commence,
at the auction rooms of M. Thomas Jr. Sons, 139
and 141 South Fourth street, on Tuesday, the 30th
September. Catalogues will be out in a , few daysi.
This, theft/4/-77177th sale, will be larger and more
varuabli than any lately held. Our excellent friend,
Mr. Bell, the , best book-auctioneer in America,
will therefore be in high spirit& this time. It may
not be out of place to mention here, as Mr. Moses
Thomas' name occurs in this notice, that he is very
honorably named in a letter of Washington Irvlng's,
'in the seem d volume of..the Life, now being pub
lished by bis nephew, Pierre Irving. In January,
1822, Washington Irving, writing to .his brother
Eber ezer, at New York, mentions ;that hd sent en
advance copy of " Braeebridge LIAO for pu'all
- in this country, and adds': "I wish ex
pressly Moses Thorna.s to have the preference
over every other publisher, because he is one who
showed a dispr?sition to serve me; and who did serve
me in my necessity, and I should despise 'myself
could I for a moment forget it. Let him have the
work . on better terms than other publishers, and
do not be deterred by the risk of loss." The gen
term printed in italics was so marked by Wash
ington Irving, and speaks equally well for Mr.
Thomas and . himself. •

,confirm this belief: among others, the' fact - bat

as though, after all; Waebington ii the point they really
abirtii,etttick. A very few hours tenet clear up the toys-.

' Ae General.McOlellan did , not attack the enemy yes-,
teiday, it is believed that he regards himself as being
the;complete Master of the situation. Stlee.why permit
them. to 'continue to receive /secessions to their force in

Oni friendsof the intelligence,' are mistaken in thei
a n nouncement of 'this `m'o'rning, that the enemy are in
'force on ilea wed bank of Seneca creek, from lea mouth

heetirg no confirmation of the rumors that they hive

;,that Po one estimates their force that passed through Kro'-

' aiil . now finding that mobile' they have been 'hurrying

int
' those of them who *rein Maryland came simply to p -
der in•Frederiek and Washingtanz•oonettes, expobtin to

If this be tru e. their hope is that McClellan will hasten -
