ARMY OF THE -POTOMAC.
A New Pr ?gramme—On' Ore ontposte—,Tra.

(Special Correspondence of The Prese. I- 1 - i
Or:Lerman, VA., Sept.:3o, 1363.
The sudden check received by Rosecrand has
changed-the march of the' Potomao Army.,, Rainy
weather will soon set in, and the.single line of rail
road, which weakens our effective forge by requiring
guards and garrisons to keep. it safe, will be inade.
- iitutte to supply the wants of our. troops, ' List
week the attention of the people 'was concentrated,
upon this army. <The gallant reef:inflates/kneels' made
by Buford and Kilpatrick were well -underatbod
All thought our advance would be aoon and certain;
but He who hae the disposal -of all things in his
power ordained otherwise. The entire programme
has -undoubtedly been 'changed, if not completely
altered. ,; •
Atlanta is our goal.. If we reach that place, Rich
mond will be -on the outside of the .Confeileracy.
True, a campaign in Northern Virginia will ,be an
impossible thing after next month.. But got so in
North> Carolina, where - the months of. November
and December might be moat :profitably consumed.
The freights of some four. or-five diffeient railroads
pane through the- town of Weldon into Riehinond.
Sever this artery, keep the vein open, andi Rich.
mond, with a single line of railroad, will.-be a bun-,
gt y metropolis. I think the capital of the SoUthern
Confederacy will never be entered. by this route.
Our forward move to the Rapidan was to "(Mier. the
enemy from depleting Lee's army,end reinforcing
Bragg. 'We were too late. Whether we shall retire
will be soon known. Every one has an opinion; no
one fails to express it. Experience has taught me
to be chary about the expressing, but not the che.
rishing, of such thoughts.. ,We, are all ,wise—each
one lavish of advice. There ",never has hcen a
sincere . counsellor, however knowing ors high
in rank,' who could not Amy, with Portia, "I
can easier teach twenty- what is. good .:to be
done, than be, one of twenty to follow; mine
own teaching." I hear , officers' criticising certain
movements, and telling how they would! have
done. As soon as they are tried, I will not say they
are found wanting, but I class them• among cases Of

Thethese things nowt Thus has it always'been.
The Arabs reduced the difficulty to:a maxim : - "Talk'
is cheap." --Men seem to say what they please
about the Administration, and pocket the good
people's money. They censure- the President and

ment of mankind, or to procure for himself
food and raiment. At the same time he was writing
upon a golden tablet, and rolling in lux*. Every
one knows how Richard Steele praised and pro
teased to admire the virtue of temperance, in all his
writings. Steele's life was full of viciesitudee—
what some people would call "ups and downs."
Disinherited by a rich relation, be left co/lege with
out taking degree ; he became a eortef vagabond,
and sought' for the philosopher's atone ; served in
the army, and, worse than ail,beeame connected with
newspaper e. I dare say, that the very time he was
writing most enthusiastically about the benefits of
the virtuous and the temperate, his brain was reeking
with the fumes of wine. Look at 'Sterne's melan,
oholy moan over imaginary wrongs inflicted upon
an unvieible donkey. ' All who read the pa
thetic plaint wept. The same hand which
- wrote the melancholy tale frequently fell hea
vily upon the trembling, cowering form of his
wile. Braddock prated of hie military service and
" the infincibility of :hie troop" to the unknown pro.
,vincial. Already his men were in the snare. Gen.
Hooker saw his way clear into Riohmond—an:d to !
we now lie on the lowest bank of the Rapidan. Pope
came here, and could not be prevented front march
ing around Rrchmone often enough to bring on it the
fate 'of Jericho. Soon he was seen Hying to Alex
andria in great haste, the dust from the rebel cohorts
—who had turned our left flank and Might our rear—
was plainly perceptible.
"In eooth we've fallen on an age of talk:
We halloo to each other of reform,
And make the shouts suffice."
Yesterday (,visited our outposts near Somerville
Ford. The night before the officers of the guard,
mistaking an order, commanded their Men to fire
,
• upon every man they saw upon the other side of the
river. This canned considerable dissatisfaction
among our men, whe were toor honorable to feel
like shooting their foes deliberately. - ,Fortunately,
the mistake was discovered after an fnterchange of
a few shots Mr. Someiville'a house is Ain close
proximity to the ford. He too& his family over the
.
Rapidan in a great hurry. Cows, carte, chickens,.
heroes, harness, and house were left without a feire:
well thought or regretful :sigh, personal safety ~eng
roising,all,lrii mind. The rebels 'alloiVour vedettes
to approach a`barn very Sear the house, but when
seen approaching the house they are ordered back.
Thus they guard . the premises. I understand that iir.
Somerville had a splendid library:" It should be,die
tributed among our eoldiers,"ii they might get weaned
from Beadle's Dime Novels and other light literature.'
The rebel fortifications here appear more entestan
-' tial than at Morton's ford. Some fifteen pieces of
cannon appear frowningly from the red-clay em
bankment—many of them brass howitzers: They

THE WAR IN. GEORGIA ,
The Battle of Chickamauga—lntermitting
Statement Of Col. Wl.der —Exaggerated
.ft. climate C 0.12 it/quite tett
[From the Indianan°lie Journal. 28th ult.] , •
On Saturday, Col. John T. Wilder, of this State,
commander of the celebrated mounted•infantry bri
gade of the Army of the Cumberland, and one of the
most prominent and successful of the,surbordinate
&doers in the late battles in Georgia, passed through
this 'city, on his return 'hOtne to recruit hie health
and strength, from a prostratingillness , hich would
have sent him to thereat' long ago, if t rospeet of
a battle had not beemetronger than th sae, and
kept him up. lie left Chattanooga . Merin nesday
morning, and brings later, as well as more complete
news or the battles on the. Chickamauga that:t i the
public has seen. -
TLIE TRUE VP.RSION OP TITS. BATTLE.
, lie says that the report of thetrew York Herald's correspondent, telegraphedlrom‘Ointinuati, lie
inh
correct, and exaggerated; first, : becauee the - nor,:
respondent did not know whardispiiiiti t on had - been-.
made of portionprofthe two corporwhicir'herepbrts - -
- defeated and scattered.; and second, because hedleft'
the field on Sunday evening, and could not possibly
have learned the full' result of the fight. Colonel
.Wllder's position was such as to enable him to know
not only the movements of the troops preceding the
battle of Sunday, but to bring from the field the very
last news' that could be gathered there.
In Saturday's fight, he was on the left or left
- centre. That night the greater portions of MiCook's
and Crittendfn'a corps moved past him to strengthen
Thomas, on the ektreme left,,leaving him on the ex
'Heern right. Between this brigade and Thosias, in
the centre, instead of two.corps, as represented by
the Hawk writer, there ; were but two divisions,
Sheridan's and Jeff 0. Davis' of these corps. Here
the line was necesearily very weak, and the rebels,.
failing in the desperate attack upon Thomas, and in
a fierce but not persistent - dash upon the right, took
the opportunity of some movement in the centre to
make a dash there.
They massed a column six or eight deep against
,our thin lilac, and broke through it, scattering 'the ,
:divisions more by main strength and pressure than
by their fire, into the hills and hollows and woods of
Rliseion Ridge, behind them, where the nature of
the ground made it difficult' to keep them together,
Or rallythem, This,was the only real reverse of the
day. It embraced but two divisions, as already sta
ted, and of theseHtieridan and Davis, who, Wilder
says, did all that human daring and coolness Could,
rallied a considerable number, and returned to .the
fight.
ot many were killed or, captured, as the rebels
were prevented from using their advantage by a
deadly flanking fire thrown into them by Wilder's
seven-shooling,rifles and artillery, as , they passed
him in pursuit. He says they did not go a half mile
beyond his line, h
and soon fell back. After thise
- held his ground five hours without molestation.
ELow Thomas held the left, or rather the mete body
Of the arrnylis known to everybody. On both flanks;
the rebels were 'stopped and beaten back. In.the
centre they broke up two divisions, but with a less
fatal result than might have been expected. i
_ -OUR REAL LOSSES.
This is the sum of the matter.- --On Sunday night,
Wilder distributed his brigade so as to protect ,the,
roads from the right to Chattanooga, and on Monday
joined the main body in good order and good spirits,' -
-entirely - unconscious of any defeat. Thomas came in
on Pionday, at his own pleasure, with more; than
two•thitds of -the Whole army, and anything but a
defeat to report,,as the most dispiriting accounts
show. Our line was held, except at the right of 'the
centre; till we chose to leave it, as Rorecrane would
have donehefore the fight, if the rebels had let him.
Thef fought to -break him up before he could get
back ,to the impregnable position at Chattanooga,
and only sueceeded in breaking up two diviaions.'
.As ;Wilder came in he gathered, up and brought
with him every large amount of stores and material,
supposed by those in Chattanooga, and of course by
the Herald. writer, to have been lest. Amongtheee
were two guns, one hundred ambulances, sixty beef
cattle, and a large number of ammunition wagons
and caissons. Similar recoveries were doubtless
made by other , portions of the army; but the cor
respondent had hurried off to publish his description
of the light, and knew nothing of this rather import
ant variation of the state of facts behind him. Our
loss in prisoners in both days, the Colonel says, will
not exceed twenty-live hundred, including the
wounded. -
In'artillery it will be less than Col. Barnett sup-
posed, as guns were recovered and brought. in of
which - he could know nothing when he gave his esti;
mate 'to the correspondent. We captured about
2,000 priEoners, of whom Wilder brought 1,530 with
him to Stevenson. The distance of the battle field
from Chattanooga has not been properly understood,
and the supposition that Rosecrans was driven bark
twenty or thirty miles has added a gloomy shade
even, to,the rsost cheering : aspect of the fight ; but
the distance was `small, our extreme right, which'
was farthest away on Sunday, being less than twelve
miles off; and the left, after falling track to Mission
Ridge, being hardly more than a half of it..
BURNSIDR REINFORCING, 'AND PAST ALL-DANGER,
On Monday, immediately after the return, from
the field, Wilder was sent off =up the Tennessee to
• guard fords and passes for Burnside's benefit, and
took with him - despatches -from Rosecrans with full
news of the usituation. ,, These despatches were
safely delivered, as the courier takingthem got back
lust as Wilder started home. This assures the
- country that 'Burnside will not be caught num
pared. When the courier reached him he, was
moving toward • Chattanooga, at what point or with
what strength it would probably be improper to
state, but we may state that by this time he is past
all danger of ,being intercepted by the rebels, and
has force enough-to-make good all Rosecrans has
lost and something over. -
CAVALRY
- .
At Stevenson Wilder; heard a rumor that Grier
son's cavalry, from the Mississippi, were within ten
miles, and that Sherman's whole corps was within
two days' march; coming up fforn Decatur, Alabaina;
but the rumors were undoubtedly false, as Grierson
Was in Springfield, - on Friday, and Sherman
could not have got to the point stated from the Big
Black in the time that has elapsed since 'the battle,
and we know that he had not started before,
THE SLAUGHTER OF LONGSTREET'S MECH.!
Among the incidents' of the battle of Saturday,
001. Wilder described the fearful slaughter of Long
street's men at the time they were driven back by
our left wing. This celebrated corps, as desperate
soldiers as ever lived, attacking two divisions; Van
Cleve's and Davis', to the right, and a little in, front
of -Wilder, separated them, and pushed on through
the Open space, yelping—the rebel shout is a ,yelp,
instead of a - civilized hilrfah—and confidentof
victory. •- A portion of them had to cross a small
field; behind which, in the bordering woods, Wilder
lay; and through which ran a ditch five or six feet
deep, to carry off the water.of anadjacent stream Or
swamp.
As the rebels entered this field, in heavy masses
fully exposed, the mounted* infantry, with ,their
seven-shooting rifles , kept up a continuous blast of
tire upon them, while Lilly, with his Indiana Bat
tery, hurled through them double-shotted canister
with his '6O pounder rifles, at less" than 300 yards.
The effect Was awful. Every shot seemed to, tell.
The, head. of the column, as it was pushed on,by
those behind, appearing to melt away or sink into
the earth, for though continually moving it got no
nearer. It broke at last and fell back in great din
order. It was rallied and Cagle Oil again, and( with
desperate`resolution pushed through the. solid lire
to the ditch. Here all who could get it took shelter.
Instantly Lilly whirled two of his guns and pour
ed right down the whole length of the ditch his hor
rible double , canister. Hardly a man got out Mit'
alive. "At this point, ,, ,said Wilder (who has' been ,
seasoned to slaughter by heing 200 times under fire),
"it actually seemed a pity to kill men so. They
fell in heaps, and I had it In my heart to order the
firing to 'cease to end the, awful sights' But'the
merciless seven-shooters and canister would not'
atop, and again the boasted flower of Lee's army
was crushed into a disorderly mob and driven off.
When the 'firing ceased, one could have walked
for two hundred yards down that ditch on dead re.
bets, without ever touching the ground. Of course
Colonel Wilder does not claim that hie brigade de
feated Longstreet. - His statement refers only .to
that portion of the corps which entered the field' in
his front. He thinks that no less than 2,000 rebels
were killed and wounded in this field. It was pro
bablY the most disastrous fire of the two daysty tight
on either side. ' -
On Sunday Col. Edward A. King, of our 68th Re
giment, then commanding a brigade, was killed by a
rebel.sharpshooter7concealed in a tree. The: shot
struek'him in the forehead, killing him instantly.
Col. Grose, reported killed, was not hurt.
. FORREST, JOHNSTON, BRAGG, AND LEE.(
In a:skirmish of 'Wilder's brigade with 'Rimed, a
few Miles from Dalton, Ga., three days before the
battle, , Forrest was-so badly wounded that he was
unable,to take his command during the battle.i Gen.
Joe..Tohnston:accoMpanied Forrest's brigade, and
'narrowly escaped being captured. That came day,
Lee,ffobnston, Bregg, and other rebel generals were
in Dalton in consultation.'

of 'July last; the Tuesday after the battle of Gettys
burg, I left my home in this city for‘the purpose of
visiting the battle•field. • At WrighteVllle I took the
stage, and lound. myself in company with several
gentlemen, one of whom was the Hon. George W.
Woodward, who had then just been nominated, for
the office, of Governor. I rode with him 'from
Wrightsville to Gettysburg, anal also returned in
his company from Gettsyburg to York. -
AB,we were journeying toward the battle-fieldthe
• conversation was naturally of the war, and at Ox.
ford; in Adams county, there was quite a discussion
between Judge Woodward and the ',Rev. Edward
Strong,' of New Haven,' Connecticut, who was one
of the party. Judge Woodward denounced. the Ad:.
ministration and the war in very strong and decided
terms. He said that it was an unconstitutional war
and an Abolition war, and that he had no interest
whatever in the result, let this result be what it .
might; that it was a contest in which the North
could gain neither - credit nor honor, and this, helm
lieved, would be the verdict - of history. , '.
I was with • Judge Woodward for a good part of
three days, in' going and returning, and there was
much more said by him to the same effect as the
above; and there Was not one word of sympathy
uttered by him, in my hearing for the Government,
or for those who were sacrificing their lives for its
- support As a loyal citizen, who has always 'voted
for Democratia.nominees, I was shocked at the senti
ments which were uttered by one. who held a high
judicial position, and who aspired to receive yet
higher honors from the State; and this conversation
produced the same effect on other minds as on my
own, for a gentleman who happened to hear a part
of it remarked to me that, the Judge had loSt one
Democratic vote. - '
As these remarks of Judge Woodward were in no
wise private, I have frequently spoken of them to
others; and I now, at your suggestion, place, this
/etter at your disposal, to be used : in any way that
you may deem best calculated to promote the sue-,
cea¢ of the cause of the Union, and to inform the
people of the real sentiments °fano of the candidates
for whom they are called upon to vote.
I am, gentlemen, yours respectfully,
GEORGE W. HART.

.Great Meeting at Danville.
DANVILLE, Pa., Sept. 28,188 S:
To The Editor of The Press: •
Sia During the past Week the friends of Curtin
and Agnew have had two large meetings here.
They were not - only large meetings, but were full of
fire and enthusiasm for the Union cause. We bad
speeches, on Tuesday night, from, Judge Kelley and
Greene Adams'; on Saturday evening,• from Mr.
Scovel, of New Jersey, and exGovernor Pollock.
The lack of confidence and genuine enthusiasm
among the Woodward men, in all this region, is 'a
subject of general remark. They show plainly that
they are oppressed with the consciousness of a Tory
cause, and a suspicion that they are making a re
.cord against themselves which their children will
blush to hear.
Judge 17Voodward's recent little letter; in which he
comes out as a War Democrat, has satisfied the folks
here of two things, viz : The Judge wants to be
Governor,; and secondly, that' Peace-at-any-price-
Democracy can't win, Hence, the Judge is seized
(within two weeks.of the election), with the coercion
malady, after the nation has been for more than two
years in a struggle for life, and he kept silent, or
only spoke to encourage its enemies. There are
plenty of men here whose pretensions to wisdom
and patriotism are much less than Judge Wood
ward's, and who never held a public office, but who
do not have to write letters to prove that they have
always been in favor of supprsesing the rebellion.
Judge Woodward, in his little letter, announcing
his loyalty, faßi not to recite malignant fanati
cism" as the cause of the war. I have noticed that
theseSecesslon sympathizers will never indulge in
one moment's conversatiOn;of the rebellion, with
out putting a tail to it, excusing the slave-drivers,
and putting all the blame on some portion of the
Northern people. MONTOUR.
FINANCIAL AND COMMERCIAL
THE MONEY HARIEET.
PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 2. 1863.
The fluctuations in gold continue, and to•day's record
is the same as that of last week. ' - ; There Is a huge talk
on the street and in the banks of "the. fulness of the
European crops," "the necessity Of sending gold to
balance our enormous (?) importations," ." a Still greater
expansion of the currency," "an unlimited prolonga
tion of the war, " and a few other terrors still cc ore ab
surd and far too ridiculous to mention. As to the crops
of Europe, they are said to be fair; but, If this fact pats
up the price of gold, grain operators can afford to sell it
'cheaper in Liverpool, by reason of their bill. of ex
change being toorth more than When gold was selling at
125. Say wheat is worth 'so much per bushel, when
gold isWorth 125; 4saY England does not need our crops
and at the price of wheat in England it would not pay to
sell it there. But if gold advances to 175, exchange ad
vances with it, and the 'wheat dealer can afford to
send over wheat end sell it about 40 per cent. lower
than be could when, gold was 125, and net the same
amount from the sale. So we think that the advance
of gold will only stimulate exports, and one of the
great bugbears cf the commercial community not only be
'shorn of its terrors, but will have been absolutely ore-.
acted, by - the fears or the duplicity of those who started
the deeply . profound theory.' For it is plain that if no
body feared the great crops of Europe, nobody would
have a hand in rushing gold up 20 per cent. in as m any
days, and on that very Account. As for a farther ex
pansion of the currency, the theory just now is absurd,
for - about the time that the currency bill passed gold was
running up to 170, and partly on account of that bill.
Now, with the same volume of coming currency Sitting
before the misguided eyes of these deep4hinkers, gold
declined to 122 -actually fell off 50 per cent. - Then, it was
argued that we could - UE . O all the currency, and now that
the speculators ate agitin terrorizing the timid, the sane
abundant reason serves to assist gold up an odd 20 per
cent. or so. So prolific and obliging weurreney is cer
tainly worthy the example of the new Mexican Empe
ror. We commend it to hie consideration. Suppose
the war is prolonged another year—from the evi
dent s i gn s of decay in the South it cannot hold
out much longer than that—the Secretary hae
his way clear for a good hall year yet; and there is
one fast to be remembered, and that is, when our own
people fail in giving their means to support the war, we
can send to Europe. sell our tends at 80 or 70 for gold,
bring the gold back, sell it, strike terror thereby into
the hearts of the present would. be- terrorists, and we
entirely "command the situation "
