The organization which oxist4 now must remain to "the er.d of this war. soon an advance will be made very g 'mildly, in every direction and by ,eivery corps of the array. The day has be rnfixed—the leaders have been chosen a d - assigned to their positions, and the, necessary orders have 'been written. The lion will' and demand of the American people boa only been tempering hith erto. It was fully tested in the furnace of patri otism in Maryland lately, and its cohesive strength was not at all impaired, even by the cunning and• well directed blows of a mastnr-sraith, while it was at a red-heat. The storm that "is brewing • will be terrible no doubt, visiting the direst disas ters upon the people, with untold death and destruc . tior, but our great national sins must be washed out by the blood of the nation, and we may as well prePare for the deluge while its sign aro in; the '•• heavens.

The pseudo Renato: Foote, in the rebel Congress, a few days ago intro duced a'resolution to the effect that ootntnissioners be appointed to visit — Washington, for 'the purpose of arranging an honorable peace, in order to pre vent further loss of human life in this terrible war, and the devastation of property. The fact that this resolution was received with great favor shows, indisputably, the growing Weakness of the rebels. IO needs but one more heavy blow to lay them at ourfeet begging for quarter; and then for reon struction we khan produce the metest plans. Bat now to the oontliet, ivith our confidence in our leaders still implicit, and our hope for the future ripening into faith and certainty.

GENERAL J. R. Bowns, of Michigan, is dead.

The action of Congress, the expressed desires of the Eresident, the necessity for some practical step to be taken towards ame liorating the condition of this large and unfor tunate class of our fellow-beings—all combined, give the subject more than ordinary import ance. Mr. Senator POMEROY has undertaken the plan of colonizing a portion of Central America, halving obtained a large portion of that territory from private parties for such a purpose. The President has clothed Mr. Po bIE OY with all the necessary power to carry_ into operation the. colonization ache!. : _ , . r : .ekigti to stii:cesisful completion, ; - our at tention has been recently directed to . ii - propo- Sitlon which la , :a been made by a highly tespect able American gentleman, lately arrived fro& the West Indies, to colonize one of the islands adjoining Hayti immediately with a large num ber of contrabands. •We have been •fairor-. ed with a detaltd explanation of the par- poses intended by this party, and have given . his sada, a very considerable degree of at tention. The island or A'Vache, of which he has ob tained a lease of twenty years, is situated about ten miles south 01 the city of Aux Cayes, in Hayti. rt covers an area of about a hundred aquaria miles, is known to be free from reptiles, and to have a healthy and agreeable tempera ture ; the thertnometdr rising rarely above 80 • •degrees in the shade, in consequence of its exposure to the trade winds. , The interior of the island is hilly, in some places rising as high as three hundred feet abhe the level of the sea. It is well timbered with mahogany, . oak, hard and dye woods; while in the neigh borhood of the coast it is mostly prairie land, and ready for the plough. As would be exl - pected in a country like this, the soil and cli mate are adapted . or all tropical productions; auger, coffee, indigo, and more especially cotton, living indigenous. The cultivation of cotton has assumed a great importance in consequence of the exist ing warithe stringent blOckade, and the wild course of . the Southern heders itidestfoying that staple. It is proposed to cultivate long stapled cotton In this island. The gentleman having the plan in charge has . invited our Government to , send to his island all the contrabands that may benecessary, with a few montbs'provl,ions ; he himself engages to take care of them on their arrival. He will give every family a comfortable furnished house, tbirteen by eighteen feet, with a six feet gallery in the front and a garden of thirty. feet square TilE NEWS =NM in the rear. lie has already entered into a contract for the construction of these bowies in ilosten, and they will he shipped to A/Vaelle in such a wry that they can be erected in a few hours' time. lie will subsist his la borers in the Ame4can manner, furnish them With pork, beef, cornbread, and vegetables, as the • principal food, besides fresh fish an 1. the meat of wild'hegs with which the waters and forests of the island abound. He will erect a chureb; a hospital,' a school, 'and all other constructions required by a large colo ny ; and by the enforcement of wise and paternal . regulations ho will see to Ae- ItYwical and moral wants of those to be en truited care. Witb each man or family hawitl make a contract for • roar yearthnd iolli pay them wages at tho•fallowintrate: to an able-bodied man, for th e Aid two years, sixty Hastier' dollars, per month; for the third year, seventy-five Haytion dollars por month; for the fourth year, one hundred Ilaytien dol lars per month. Ho will pay the WOl3lOll re spectively forty;fifty, and seventy-tive dollars per Month ; the adults, from Moen to eighteen years old, half price; the small children to be nursed by matrons, during the hours of,laber, in a house constructed for that Juirpose. • :The Baytion dollar, we may observe, is now 'Worth `about ten cents in ailier (but money.has in that country a larger value than iVith ns. : *e are informed that the Government of. Hayti has pledged Itself by special law and contract to give to each family of African de:. scent, who may visit - A' Vache, after the 'ter mination of the contract, with their employer, a free grant' of sixteen acres of the best land. .To each single,Man it will - give eight acres, so - that, with this grant and the money eartied ;. l during the . four years of service, the intotli- . gent negro may enter upon a lifeof freedom - and independence, conscious thathe has.earn cd the means of his liirelibuod,`and at the 'same time disciplined himself to , the duties,- the plearres, and . the •'lrfutte . of free labor.' The Government of iblytt has furthermore provided that thesa:famiii4 or individuals' 1 who may prefer to remain with their em 5- -- 1, . the twenty_.v {MUM.- the p r , v , h3g ,,- , tuffery utnethey • • Without any. means 'of 'forming a deUulto conclusion upon this anlij;set, we have littlo hesitation in saying that it appears to be a very excellent plan, and it ii to be hoped that the Administration will _lend, it its assistance, • or, at least, give it the attention which it seems to deserve.' It will in no man ner interfere with the Central American colonization sebeme under the charge of air. Senator Pommel . , to which the President has given his assistance. It is contended,• that while Mr. POMEROY'S scheme is merely an ex periment, the' one, we are now explaining possesses more elements of Success. All that is asked by the gentleman having it in charge is the assistance, of the Govertnent, in the nature of a Joan, which, tegether with his own means, would enable him to plice co.ony in Wetting operation—the transportation of the necessary number of negroes, and its connte • nance and protection. The proprietor of A.Yirache will act as the governor of the island, superintend the operation's of his colonYklind will repay to-the Governmerit the loan obtained irons its treasury. Re simply asks;the tempo rary use of a portiori, •of the money that has been appropriated to be expended for the 'pur pose of colonization ; he proposes that . a Go vernment agent be sent with him, partly as the superintendent of the rights of the negroos, and partly with a view of securing a punctual . pa 3 ment of,the Government funds at the time their instalments are due.

GARIBALDI, it wo uld jppenr, Was fired at and wounded when his men had not pulled a trigger—atter, indeed, be had been seen to go along the front of his lines, and heard to issue orders not to fire upon the Royalists. With a certain lofty pride, which few can. condenin, GAAIBALDI says, gc Whatever the personal.isaue, I prnsent myself before.ltaly, with my. head 'erect, sure of having clonomrdnty:" ^ His worst foe can not accuse him of being actuated •by personal interests.

However policy may induce VICTOn EMMANUEL to hold back for a time, his ultimate hope must be an United Italy, inclu ding Venetia and Rome, as well as Piedmont, Naples, Lombardy, Tuscany, Parma, and Modena. He is kept In chOck, at present, by the policy of NAPOLEON, who does not, cannot desire a free Italy Tinder a brave, honorable, and patriotic ruler. In such a sovereignty his own influence would necessarily be ,limited, and he governs France almost wholly by set-. ting State against State, monarch against monarch, and interest against interest. Ho will maintain a French garrison in Rome as long as be dare do so—public opinion in Eng land and also in France getting a strength which he may find it prudent not to oppose any longer.

The cams fa laid out in regular streets, which, as is customary with soldiers, are named after the favorite avenues of their own city. There are no tents in the camp, the shelter for the troops being constructed of fenca.rails and corn stalks. which do really present a most comfortable ap pearance. These huts are built in a wood, which affords tine protection from the_ stm. Ever since the en campment has been formEd, the weather has been - romarbably line, so that there has really been no privation and very little sickness. A few cases of diarrhoea have' occurred, but only a few, and they of a very mild character. The camps are remarkably clean, and .tina men soldierly looking. 001. John New kumet has cowman with W. W.

The men speak highly of their officers, and signor to DO delighted tith their new file; balms equally willing to meet the enemy or. return home. some of the German companies have a large number of fine singers, who regale their fellow-soldiers every night with choice music and recitations. Captain Landis' company of artillery, reported as o3n nected with Colonel Day's- resilient, is enoampsd close by, and their camp, liko that of Colonel Newkumet'a,• is a model of cieenlinees and Comfort.
