THE SUBSCRIBER MAKES THE
opening of another Scholastic year the opportunity
of announcing to his friends and the public that he will
this fall resume the duties of his profession in the chan
nel in which they were originally undertaken.
It inay be remembered that, five years .ince, he began
life by devoting himself to the education of boys, but
that, at the expiration of a--year, he was compelled, by
impaired health, to abandon, temporarily,his Scheel,
begun under the fairest auspices.
is now happy to state that, wi
Be th health and strength
fully restored and confirmed,' he takes up - his work
again with every aSSIIiaTICO of making it- permanent.
His purposes are the same now as they were:, his views
regarding the influences that should shape the school
'education of boys have only received additional con
firmation from further reflection and experience; and.
his best hope is that he may be able so to realize these
views as to make his labor contribute a real value to
the educational interests of the city with which he feels
himself identified. SaIIUEL M. , CLEVEL aN D.
Boys will be prepared for any of our Colleges or for
Commercial life.- In either case the aim will be to de
velop, from the details -of ordinary school routine, a

THE RIOT COUOEIAI
Once more the draft progresses in the infected dis
tricts. In every place of rendezvous, at every
corner, are scowling faces, and the red, hateful eyes
of men who are again bracing themselves for re
alliance. Everything looks threatening in , these
localities. The bar-rooms are thronged with eager
discussers of the feasibility of such resistance, who
threaten to visit death and ruin upon all the up
holders of the eonscription. • Yesterday they in
dulged loudly in these threats, and, indeed, the po
lice seemed to apprehend somewhat of an outbreak
—an apprehension which was ill-founded, but which
may yet prove truthful enough for a future day.
Had not the Government made• vast preparations
to preserve the peace of the city, yesterday might
have been another of those sorrowful periods
in our metropolitan history, when no man could
count that the roof which ' covered him . -at
midnight might not before morning. flame from
the torch of the incendiary, and himself fall beneath
the bludgeons of mobs. Everything seemed ripe for
another "terrible culmination of mob-passions ;_ but
the knowledge that an army, large enough to sweep
every street and by-lane with lead and steel, lay like
a sleuth-hound in, the leashes- ready - to: be slipped
upon them, acted as a forcible sedative. In.this
army every arm of the service is represented, even
to that of grenade-throweri. An impromptu navy
is also ready to act, upon the first signal. This con
sists of several gunboats; besides a number of tugs,
each carrying a boat's howitzer, and manned - by ma.
rines from the navy yard. In case of trouble, these
will prove invaluable aide, being the most rapid
boats on:the river, while the howitzers clan be nia.-
nipulated iwith great ease and precision. During
the late riots, the favorite menace of the mobs was
that, in case of resistance being offered them, they
would destroy all the shipping then lying at our
wharves; and had they seen fit, at that time,
to make the attempt of carrying that menace into
execution, the- authorities would not have had
means of prevention at their disposal. Such a
frightful contingency is now guarded against Most
effectively by the employment a these tugs. By
running up into the slips they can pour an oblique
fire through the streets fronting the rivers with an
effect more easily to be imagined than described.
In nearly every histance the streets leading up from
these thoroughfares are narrow and tortuous, and
should n mob once wedge itself among the piers, it
would indeed be difficult for them to. escape in any
numbers under the plunging fire of grape which
this miniature navy would deliver. Another grand
conservative element is the number of cavalty now
stationed at convenient points; The need of a
sufficient number of dragoons was sorely felt du
ring the Hote; and its presence will certainly
be yet more sorely felt by the disaffected : in theevent
of a recurrence of the outbreaks. Altogether,
,our
citizens have nothing to complain of at the handerof
the Government on the score of precautions ; and'
this fact has restored' the feeling of Seeurity among ,
the respectable clams, which, for so long has beer. ,
a stranger to them. There is none of that nervous
fretfulness displayed at the mention of a second''
Copperhead insurrectionin our midst, which, but n .
few days ago, was so painfully frequent. The numz•
berless bayonets gleamipg on every side, the dull .
glitter of fleld-pieces, aqd the sight of dragoons'
booted and spurred, are Brie' yea of narcotics for the
feverish mind. On the Other hand; the Copperhead
press sets up a dismal wail' over the irritating pre ,
eence, which is intended to-overawe these good Dc.
mocratic citizens who carry , their knives in their
boot-lege, and emulate the Sepoys when a little ex
cited over rebel reverses and 'the - imminency of.the
draft.
It seems hardly probable that these wretches will'
dare / face the exterminating elements which hare .
been prepared for them by another carnival or
slaughter and pillage ; yet it is - far from impossible.'
Their leaders are strenuously working for the de•.
sired consummation, and employing every means at
their disposal for inciting them to the, desperate
pitch required ; but these Dahomeyites love life for
themselves, unscrupulous as they were in depriving
their victims of it, and for this reason, the doubt is
as yet on the side of quietude and pease. -
A POLITICAL "ST. BARTHOLOMEW."
Principal
It is, however, very evident that the Copperheads
no longer rely wholly upon mobs for the acComplish
men of their nefarious ends. Their'experiment,*
based upon, that confidence, failed ignobly, and the
flames they had lighted at last shone only upon the
bodies of their instruments, as theyday grimly in
our streets, mutilated with bullet wound, and the
gash of sabre, bayonets. Their tactics' are now dif
ferent. They seek to array the new National Girard
of the State, officered by Southern affillators,
.
against the Federal pOwer, to enforce a
and hurry the State thereby into reirOlution. These
aims they do not strive to conceal; nor "could they,
had they such a desire. Their ortnproclaim:daily:
this determination, andllaunt it the face loyfif
men as openly as the Southern constdrators flaunted
their treason before leveling theilinni at Sumpter.
It may safely be surmised that this collision' will
never occur as they desire ; whatever the regiments
of gamblers and ruffians now tendered from the Cop
perhead wards to Governor Seymour nuedo, will
in nowise be seconded by the respectable militia re-•
giments. If any collision should occur,jt will be
between Vigilance Committees of our citizens, and
Seymoues political regiments recruited from the
slums of the city. The Copperhead policy is one of
aggression ; its inception was in the blood of our ci
tizens, which flowed beneath their bludgeons on the
days of July. It aims not at the simple suppression
of political opposition, but to a political St. Bar
tholomew. Nevi York learned this through a bitter
lesson; she readlt by the flames in which negroes
were tormented. When the issue is tried again, the
lesson may be for them ; surely, not for us.
STUYFESANT.
Irelaud an Opponent of Slavery.
To the Editor of The Press:
SIR : ,It would be passing strange, wonderfully
unnatural, if Irishmen shciuld become the advocates
and supporters of slavery and oppression. The
spirit of their religion and the genius of their peo
ple are alike opposed to slavery. All: their great
representative men in modern tunes have lifted up
their voices against it ; and history shows that the
whole people, in ancient times, considered. the hold
ing of human beings in bondage such a -crime and a
sin as twining upon the nation the retributive ven
geance of Heaven. •
Let every Irishman in America now ask himself,
"Has not slavery been a curse to Ibis country V ,
and answer it on his conscience. • .
When (nearly 700 years; ago) Ireland was afflict
ed with public calamities, the people availed them
selves of "the fast which the Lord hld chosen ;"
namely, "to loose the bands of wickedness, to undo -
the heavy burdens, and to let the oppressed go
free." And they freely set their slaves at liberty.
All honor to the ancient Irish for so doing!• • And has
this generous, noble, religious abhorrence of slavery
ceased to animate the sons of Ireland in modern
times? I thank God it has not. The report of the
committee of the Repeal. Association in _lreland,
written in 1843, and signed by Daniel O'Connell, as•
chairman, (published in your paper a few days since;)!
: in answer to a communication from the- Irish Re
peal Association of Cincinnatirproves the contrary,.
and is evidence of the deteetatiod in Which slavery
in America was held by that great man and hiseens.
patriots. Though dead, their testimony yet speaks
'" With trumpet tongue to Heaven."• Let- that re
port be attentively read and considered by every
Irishman in the United States.
It is the clear, true, and manly expressim of the
feelings of every uncorrupted Irish.heart ;:and every
true Irishman must lift up his handetoleaven and
say " amen" to it, fromthe depths of hie soul. Do
Irish Men change their nature by becoming residents
or citizens of the United States God forbid!:
To the praise and honor of the Irish, (my country
men,) .1 can testify that their generous, noble
natures prompt them, in their own corm*, to take
the part of even a helpless, 111-used.doy. And is it
possible that they, can, in this country, deliberately
aid in riveting the ehains,of slavery upon human
beingai—upon men, made in the image and Rheum
of God !. Irishmen !'fellow-countrymen t Our native
land expects us to uphold her ancient character.
Shall we disgrace i 17 ., The spirits of O'Connell and
his great compatriots, who so nobly labored for our
emancipation, appeal to us from the grave ! Shall
we disappoint their expectations? The mothers that
bore us, that nourished to in our infancy, and
watched over us with a tenderness of affection which
only an Irish mother can feel, look down upon us
from heaven in merciful entreaty ! Shall we dishodor
then? Let every true-hearted Irishman answer, No!
AN OLD IRISH DEMOCRAT.
P. S.—l well remember that the contribution sent.
(in 1844, I believe) by the Irish - Repeal Atieociation,
of Isl'orth Alabama was returned by the association.
in Ireland as an "unholy offering," " stained by the
sweat and blood of African slaves," (for the con
tributors boasted they were slave-owners!) and, ::I
cannot forget the scathing rebuke (never published, I
believe) which accompanied the return of the money.
It is a feather in the cap of old Ireland. The follow.
ing' is en extract:'
"It is an established fact in history that the Eng
lish `were generally in the habit of selling. their
children and other relations, to be slaves in Ireland,
without haVing even the pretext of distress or'
famine, and the port of Bristol, which has since sent
out so many ships to be laden with human flesh, in
Africa, was then equally distinguished, as a market
for the same commodity. But under the influence'
of Christian principles the'generous.. Irish, is.
national synod, not only put an' end to the nefarious
traffic, but emancipated all the English slaves in
the Kingdom. This took place in the year-11 : 72.
Ireland being then afflicted with public calamities,
the clergy and people began to reproach themselves
with the unchristian practice .of purchasing and
holding in slavery their fellow-men. Although
there Slaves were fairly paid for, and although they
were natives of an island from which the Irish had
begun to receive injuries,. it was unanimously re
solved in council freely to act them at liberty. The
Irish were at that time a_mneh more enlightened,
people than the English. This fact has not been`
sufficiently remembered to the honor of Irelawa.
is also worthy of remark that, in the division,otthe

A SIIABIEFIIL LIBEL
Nothing`could be meaner than the attempts to rob'
of-their well-earned laurels the colored regiments
who have met the enemy face to face in deadly com
bat. The Buffalo Courier publishes; and all the'
slavery-worshipping presses are copying, a state
merit from an anonymous source, purporting to s be
from "an officer in the army before Charleston,"to•
the following purport :
"The stories about their splendid fighthg'are -, all'
in my eye.> At the assault on Fort Wagner they
ran away as fast as -they could, and came near de
moralizing the whole attacking force. In an hour
after the tight Commenced over allionaand of them•
came straggling'down to the south' end of the Mandl
and before morning there were' at the hospital and'
dock over three hundred of them not hurt in the'
least."
There la one statement that stamps this' para•
graph as a lie. The writer sass that 'rover a thou.
sand of them came straggling down to the south end
of theisland." Now it is well known that but one
negro regiment took part -in the assault, and 'that
went into action with less than six hundred men. •
But the falsity of this mean and atrocious attack;
is deMonstrated by every account of the assault

accounts of the affair all unite in sayinglhat the lie.

our hands a private letter from Dr. A: O. Hamlin;
Medical Inspector of the United Stateaarmy, which'
is so pertinent, and so completely disproves this
libel, that we publish it in this connection :

OSGHSSIONIST ititiIIKHD BY GOV.' JOHNSON
Genera , G. W. Harding, ex.member of the mill; •
tau board of the rebel Governor Isham G. Harris,
once made it his boast that five million dollars of
the State passed through his hands for the use'
of the-rebel cause. When Governor Johnson en
tered on his duties as Military Governor, General
Harding was' arrested and confined on Johnson's
Island,• from which he was subsequently released and
paroled•under heavy bonds. For a long while, and.
we believe : at present, he has enjoyed the favor of -
having a.Federal.guard placed at his splendid estate,
not-far front: : the city, for the protection of his pro.
perty. Recently, avert' spirited conversation took.
place between this gentlemanand Governor John
.
Gen. Harding: introduced the conversation by
ashing4an eaßianation from the. Governor of the
course to beluirsuect-ibtr We - Federal Government
with reference to-entisting negroes in Tennessee.
He added is' •
I have now a daughter in the North, and if it is
the intention of the Federal authorities to employ
negro soldiers, l shall let her remain there, rather
than bring her back to a State which will become
the theatre &f indiscriminate violence, robbery, rape,
bloodshed, and every species of outrage perpetrated
by negro soldiers, who will have no regard for the
lives and property of citizens or the chastity of
women.”,
.
Governor. Before you inveigh against the policy
of the Federal Government, which you claim the
privilege of criticising, you ought to ask yourself
who brought thie state of things upon the country,
and who is responsible for itl You talk of outrage
and the violation of female chastity, when your.
Confederate Government has Indian savages em
ployed in bunting Tennessee loyalists to their hiding
places.in the mountain* and when your rebel caval
rymen are now engaged in seizing and stripping wo
men in the mountains; under pretext,of ascertaining
whether they are men disguised in female garments
to escape conscription. These brutalities are perpe
trate&daily by your friends and you are, silent.
General Harding. But, Governor, I do notapprove
of, these things at all ; I am opposed to them.
Gov. Of course, you are opposed to them no* be
cause you dare not express yourself otherwise. But
you helped to set on foot the rebellion, which is the
parent of all these crimes and sufferings. You
boasted that you had-circulated $5,000,000 to pro.
mete the rebellion in the once quiet and happy State
of Tennessee. Sir, if I had done what you have
done, my hands and every thread of my; garments
would seem to blush with the blood of my murdered
countrymen. You are responsible for the murder of
the dower of the youth of Tennessee, and the deso.
lotion of her households. You are one of the con
spirators who delivered .them over to-an untimely
and ignominious death in battle against their.coun
try,. in order that you might hold to your negro pro
perty. You and your guilty comrades are red and
dripping with the blood of your ,deluded victims.
Gen. H. I obeyed the dictates of my conscience
in all that I did, as I did when I held office under
you, in ,yeare past. Did you not once consider me
worthy of trust? •
Gov. Yes, I did. Once-you were. considered an
honorable man. Benedict.. Arnold Was once a faith
ful soldier, and fought bravely for his country, but
he turned traitor and endeavored to sell her to the
enemy, and he died in disgrace. Avon Burr was
once deemed an honorable man, and.* brave soldier,
but he, too, died a universally.detestedutraitor.
Gen. H. Do you compare moto Arnold and Burrl
Gov. Yes. I considenyou a traitor, an enemy of
your country. If you regret your, misconduct why
do you not make amends for it, by openly espousing
the cause of the country agamet.the.rebellion, in
stead of carping and censuring the.pplicy of the Go.'

ALan.A.lrl :ELECTIONS.
-•- -
A writer in the Lut o n Telegraph, alluding to the
antecedents of Mr. Watts and several of The gentle- -
men elected to Congress in Alabama, says :
"lie (Mr. 'Watts) was originally a Unton Whig,
i
and led the Bell and Everett ticket n Alabama."
This is only part of the tiuth. We are of the
pression that Mr. Watts, while supporting 11611 and
Everett, distinctly announced himself in favor of
disunion if Lincoln was eletted President.
This la of itself a trifle • but the impression sought
to be made is that Mr. Watts was a Union Mall, and
that his election is evidence of a purpose to reblike
secessionists. Of the public sentiment of Alabania
we know but little, but we are slowto believe that
the majority against Governor Shorter resulted fiord
any purpose to repudiate the Secession leaders. if
so, they made a very bad choicein substituting Mr.
Watts.
THE ARMY,'
[From the Richznend Whig. August 21.1
' The Central train last evening,brOught . the usual'
report from the Army of Northern Virginii—" all"
quiet in front; nothing nem." Meade having fallen
back, our troops are left in undisoutid possession of
the territory on this aide of the ROpahannock, and
there is no immediate prospect of any 'important
military movement.
The army is in superb condition, in floe spirits,
and ready to meet the enemy again whenever the
commanding general shall will it. Several thou.
sand absentees have returned since the President's
proclamation. Meade's army, on the contrary, is
said to be greatly demoralized, and desertions are
frequent. The Northern papers boast that con
scripts are being finwarded at the rate of a thousand
a day; but that is all empty talk, The article which
we publish elsewhere, from the New YOrk Times;
Indicates quite plainly that Meade is in no condition
to offer or accept battle. It would not be surprising
if he should withdraw his fo es to the defenses of
Washington, and there awe recruits expected
as the result of the draft at t
LIEUTENANT GEN
A - correspondent writing fro of North.'
em Virginia, confirms the state that General
Hood has been created Lieutenant General. The
writer says :
" I feel authorized to state, with . more certainty
than in_my last, that Major General Hood has been
created' lieutenant general, and appointed to the
command of all the cavalry of the Ariny of 'North.
ern Virginia. I hear also that Brigadier General
Hamilton has also been promoted to the rank of
major general of cavalry. The reports of both ap•
pointments-ere received with general gratification."
IA DAY OF FASTING- AND `PNAVEN
This day has been set apart by the President as a
day- of humiliation and prayer. No man or woman
in the Confederacy, who is- familiar with the 'doe
trines or commandments of the inspired Word, can
be greatly surprised at the present aspect of affairs.
have not the people everywhere devoted themselves
to the worship of Mammon? Have they not all
practised extortion"! Have not thousands 'given
themselves over to wantonness and all manner of
evil Is it wonderful that God sheuldWithhold his
gracibus favor from such a people time that
this pervading wickedness should cease: "Unless
ye repent, ye cannot be saved."
An opportunity is afforded to all, this day, to
humble themselves before God, and each one to re
solve that, henceforward, let others act as they may,
he or she will in future abjure the sins and follies of
the oast, and strive to obey the commandnients of
the Everlasting God.—Riclimond W hig, Au#.• 21."
'REBEL "RAGS
The Richmond Enquirer says that Mr. Memmin
gen, printing. press "is grinding the life out of us,
turning out reams, tons of printed paper by . way of
money." It pathetically predicts that "at last the
volume of current paper must be so much in excess
of the commodities to be purchased with it, that
those who haye anything to sell will not believe
that they can ever demand too much of it for a
pound of beef or a pair of shoes." Rebel finances
are already in a fair way to collapse.
Colonel Robert Tyler, now register-of the rebel
treasury, formerly known as Bob Tyler, the indis
creet son of a generally.despised-president, has come
out in Riehmond,with a letter, in which, according
to the Sentinel, he "demonstrates by facts and fig
ures.lhat there is no valid reason for the extent of
the.depreciation of the currency ;:that as a deduction
from the condition and the prospects of our finances,
it is absurd ; and he maintains that it is in a great .
measure due to causes which lie within legislative.
correction."
Well may the Sentinel add - that the•.Confedericy
" does not. contain a. citizen more devoted to Ito
cause, or readier to make sacrifice or endure hard-.
ship, to promote its welfare," than Colonel Tyler:,
Nobody has shown a capacity to sacrifice truth witlr
more readiness, or undergo greater hardship in ma.
king Sgures lie. The sufferings of the. rebel- camp
must be small indeed in comparison
with the exq*
site torments which afflict the rebel treasury.
EUROPE AIVD AMERICA:
JEFFERSON DAVIS AND LOUIS NAPOLEON
The Times says it would not be greatly surprised-
if something were to arise out of the proposition ,
made by Jeff. Davis to the Emperor of the French&
An alliance offensive and defensive between Mexibiee
under French protection, and the Confederate
States„would be quite consistent with all the more
recent indications of French policy in that part of
the world. Although but a rumor, it is a contin
gency upon, which the world might look with fa
vor. Absolute neutrality would still be the- only
part of England ; but still a balance•of power in ,
North America -would be a pledge of peace ; andl
gain to all humanity..

StiRSTIITEVE FOR ICE WATER. —In.'
these days, when ice is dear, and oftentimes not.to
be bad, a very exeellent drink can be made of one
sixth to ono-fourth of, good cider vinegar, about
three-fourtbs water of ordinary summer tempera
ture,,and two tablespoonfuls of tine white sugar to
an ordinary tumbler full ; good brown sugar will do
in the absence of white. To many persons this is
not only a healthful but a very agreeable drink.
For our eoldiers it would be an excellentaubstititte.
for lemonade, however well prepared. This drink
has beeia used• with great benefit to dyspeptics, .who
cling to it as a healthful and invigorating drink.
The proportions of all ingredients can be regulated
according to taste. _
