The Situation.
The Secretary of War, by the official
Statement of the military cituation, has
done so much to relieve the anxiety of the
public, that it is hardly possibie to over
estimate the value of the service. The
daily bulletin from the War Department
preyents the circulation of false rumors of
'victory and defeat, such as have in other
critical periods by turns exalted and de
pressed the nation to dm extremes or 3oy
and sorrow. Mr. STANTON, with charac
teristic moderation, confines himself to the
Statement of hard facts, and we know
that nothing is extenuated Or ex aerated
in these honest, straightforward despat Ches.
To-day we have news from General
CIizANT to half past eight o'clock of yeAer
day morning, and at that hour he WaS
occupied in the organization of his rein
forcements and preparation for a new
assault. slight attack was, proba

will fight when he is ready; that he,will
soon be ready there is no doubt.; lie has
been reinforced, the Secretary informs
115, by over - twenty-five thousand iVe
terans ; a number which replaces, almost
man for man, those who have been killed or
'wounded in :the late battles, and many, of
the slightly - wounded will soon return to
the front. Both eombataiaS are now using
all their energies to increase the power of
their ,armies; and the n-ar has been forthe
past week a war of reinfbreementg. The
Government has sent more regiments to
GBAIST than the reUels have sent 16 LEg,
and the preponderance should be felt in the
impending battles. We have little doubt
that one-half of the entire rebel force is
'now in -Virginia.

C4overnor Curtin's: call upon the volun

to Kill a livarty promptitude. The Go_

they asked them to giVe ore ]!n days
to-the service of their country, with an
alacrity and ah entlinsias , th that crtim , )t tail
to b e emulat e d in every loyal section.
The borders of these States have all
been threatened by the rebels, but
none lies stitnfred so much as our
own ; and now that Grant holds the
rebel hordes with a stern hand, apprehen-
Eions may cease, Or at any rate be post
potted; so far as om• frontiers are concerned.
:No citizen who wtitches the progress of the
great drama in Eastern : Virginia, who

Pr. AlonxisA, of Boston, who has been at .Frede

of the present campaign, superintending - the use or
amestheties in the hospitals, has returned, with
several other volunteer surgeons.
Be states that the number or wounded, as shown
by official statements, is nut ;4),evo, gad that those
requiring operations had the benefit of anwstliettes,
and that all the wounded have been 'brought in from
the camp hospitals and the field to Fredericksburg.
The ambulance system has worked admirably, re
m:ming all the wounded from those positions where
they embarrass the military operations, and the
hospital arrangements are as nearly perfect as cir
eu/UStallecs will permit.
An Omission Corrected.
An omission occurred in the synopsis of the Se
nate's amendments to the internal tax bill as tele
graphed last night. It is proper to say the Finance
Connnittce recommend that from the Ist of October,
the tax on distilled spirits be $1 per gallon, and
from the Ist of October to the Yet of January next,
;.':1.25, and after that date, SI.ZO. The Senate Com
mittee on Finance leave the income tax at 5 per
cent. on the excess OtiCr- $6OO, and not exceeding
MAIO, and a tax of 71.4 per cent. on auy excess over
$lO,OOO, and they strike out but 10 per cent. on the
excess over this amount, and recommend a non
licurrence in the section taxing domestic spirits.
The Bodies of our Slain heroes.
It is useless for friends to come to the front at this
time to procure the bodies of those who have fallen
in battle, The request is denied in all oases, Ail
arc carefully buried and their names placed upon
boards, so that their friends can find them after the
army has advanced.

having sought to screen himself from his military
duty to his country, in consequenee of thus being
invested with consular functions of a foreign Power
in the United States, it is deemed advisable that

The Forged Proclamation.
KEW YOWR, May 20.—1 t billy be interesting to the
public and the press, who were so terribly imposed
upon in the publication of the recent bogus procla
mation, to know that in the city of Washington
there has of late existed a body of news-gatherers,
styling themselves the representatives of the West
ern press, composed of Messrs. White, Rill, and
Willard, who have for some time past been sending
daily despatches to papers at Springfield and Bos
ton, in Massachusetts, and to Rochester, in New
York, as well as others in Cincinnati, Chicago, St.
Louis, and other points at the West.
These persons are in no way connected with the
Associated Press, which has a well-known, intelli
gent, and reliable agent in that city, as the truthful
nature - of his despatches for many years will attest.
It appears, as we learn from the well-informed
correspondent of the Connarreinl Advertiser, that on
Nionday night a despatch was sent by members of
this Western Press Association, or purporting to
hove been sent by them, announcing that there
- would be a proclamation calling for a new draft
abrilft the Ist of July, that the pinet.s of the 100-days
men might be filled.
Whether the bogus proclamation was concocted
by one of the Association or whether another person
based it npon their news is not yet officially. knoWn.
It is fair to infer, however, that either some member
of the above Association was the author of the bogus
proclamation, or that some person connected with
them, knowing the fact that a call was about to he
made, wrote the proclamation upon predictions fur
aished by their despatches.
One of the members of this Western Press ASSo
elation is a confidential employee of the War
Department, and the others °ileum* official
positions, thus giving, them opportunitieS to secure
announcements prior to their preparation for the
public.
The Froyost Marshal of Washington is giving the
ailair a most thorough investigation, and all the
stove-mentioned persons will be critically examined
in reference to this great outrage upon the public
and the press.

THE BATTLE AT NEWMARKET.
GArtrAiv BRTDOK, .✓EST RO [NIA, May 73.—Ad
ditional information throws seine light on the part
taken by the cavalry proper under the command of
Brigadier General Averill in the expedition to
Newbern, Pulaski county, Va. This column went
to the right of the main body under the immediate
eMilmand Of General Crook. General Averill
reached to within fifteen miles of the salt works in
Takewell county on the Ttb, where he encountered a
force of the enemy, driving them on to the main
body near the salt works. This Ihreo war under the
command of Generals Sam tones and John Morgan,
and numbered five thousand. Fifty prisoners were
Captured, among whom was 7olm Morgan's private
Secretary. Our loss was but one man.
On the tenth, General Averill reached a point
within four miles of Wytheville, where he encoun
tered the enemy, four thousand strong, under Gen.
S:11117 3 ORM We fought them for four hours, driving
them, and killing and wounding many, and captu
ring some prisoners. Under cover of darkness the
enemy retreated. Our loss was one hundred and
twenty killed and wounded ; none missing.
Near Blacksburg, General Avcrill commenced
de.stroying, the isailtoaa, which was most effectually
done to a point four miles east of Ohristiansburg.
At the latter place a small force of the enemy
hastily left, leaving two 3-inch guns, which fell
into our hands. General Averill fully accom
plished the work assigned him by General Crook.
The entire expedition has been a brilliant success
in all its parts, giving additional lustre to the high
teputation of General erook. -I am expecting full
details of the part taken by the main body hourly.

GENERAL SIGEL'S ENGAGEMENT
A letter from Stra.tharg, May Ea ys : "Our en

the approach of our force gradually fell beak to
Newmarket, skirmishing all the way with our
advauee 2 and drawing them after him. At
Newmarket he. wes reinforced by Echols.
They evidently intended to draw him- into
their lines sufficiently far removed from lsb;
supports, and then, with an overwhelming force,
attack and capture his command, In this they
were defeated, for Col. Moore succeeded in holding
his ground until the main column, under Gen. Sigel,
arrived.
"After a mire tight of four hours' duration, it was

VIE GREAT FORGERY'.
Tho publication of the proclamation forgery in
the World and Journal of Commerce created a feel
ing against those papers which, whether just or un
just, will probably militate seriously against their
interest and active influence. On Wednesday morn
ing the news of its issuance spread like wildfire
throughout the city. In Wall street the excitement
was great. Gold advanced suddenly. Mon began
to assume those stereotyped faces of gloom which
have always heretofore marked the conclusion of a
Potomac campaign.
let the doubt of its genuineness WaS very g,eneral;
Perhaps by many it was considered as a mere ca
nard, concocted by the editors of the twin journals
in which it appeared. Others speculated morn cor
rectly upon the fraud, and assigned it to its proper
sources. Despite these suspicions, the morning was
spent very uncomfortably by loyal men, and jovially
by the Copperheads. When, however, the despatch
from Secretary Seward, declaring the spurious
nature of the document was placarded upon
the bulletins, a strong reactionary tide of feeling
was developed. An excited throng of down-town
merchants rushed pell-mell to the office of the Jour.
vet of Commerce, and demanded a retraction of the
swindle. At one time there was no little talk of
hanging the unfortunate fogies, and subjecting the
contents of the establishment to a general dissemi
nation. Wiser counsels prevailed, however, and
although the editors were at first intractable, de-
Ctiieg . to retract what they seemed to regard as
genuine, the demonstrations of wrath so plentifully
exhibited had the effect desired. The proposed bul
letin was issued, and the Crowd dispersed. It is
stated that "The Superfluous Man" was closeted
in the editorial room during this visit of the mer
chants.
The suspension of the papers is far from meeting
with general, or even with a general minority com
mendation. No legitimate doubt of: the faultless
neSs of the editors can exist, for it was by more good
fortune that any portion of the daily press escaped
the snare so skilfully laid for it. The arrest and in
carceration of the telegraphic operators is censured
even more strongly 5 and if public opinion allOrdS
any test whatever Of propriety or impropriety, the
Government has committed a deplorable error, one
which its enemies will not hesitate to distort into
an outrage.
Yesterday evening the military guard was still
promenading in front of the seized establishments.
Their presence attracted but little attention from
thc passers-by. Strong hopes are entertained that
the coneoeter of the forgery will he brought to jue- -
Hee, although, without doubt, alarmed by the fierce
commotion excited by the villainy, lie has already
sought safety in temporary flight. The reward
own) offered for his apprehension will bo speedily
swelled by subscriptions emanating from citizens.
Lists are already circulating down town, and it is
more than probable that the amount thus offered
will induce disclosure from seine one who has had
cognizance of the affair.
The action already taken by the community indi-
CatCS a fixed resolve to sift the matter most thoreagh
ly, and bring the traitor to condign punishment.
Had he yesterday appeared upon the streets and ad
mitted his criminality—such was the Intensity of the
popular indignation—he would hare been carefully
executed and deposited in the most convenient
drain.
Among the pa,sengers upon the steamship Persia,
which arrived from Liverpool on - Wednesday even_
ing, was the famous Doctor Hays, of Arctic Expe
dition notoriety. The doctor appears to be in excel
lent condition, and blessed with a fine flow of ani
mal spirits. He is about starting for the West,
where he is to be employed in prospecting a tele-
B -rapli r9tate.
A still snore important arrival was that of the Po
ruvinn bearer of despatches to the State Depart"
men t at Washing,ton—a short, bewhiskered, intense
seeming gentleman—an eminent lawyer in Lima.
lie was likewise bearer of a missive from tho
British consul at Clallao to the British minister.
Ens departure was somewhat hurried from the
latter place. I-1 is Government had chartered
a steamer expressly- for his conveyance, expend
ing therefor tho sum of eighteen thousand dollars
in gold. Ini this he voyaged in solitary gran
deur to Panama; and after being whisked across
the Isthmus to Aspinwall, there embarked upon the
which brought hint to this port. The compa
nions of his voyage describe hint as rather reticent
upon business matters. During the greater portion
of - tiro passage he was engaged in concocting - VOlll
- documents, the contents - of which have not
yet transpired.
The "Count Johannes" has entered a criminal
prosecution against the proprietor of the Leader,
elairgina; him with uttering a false and injurious
libel against him, the said Count. The Leader re
plies that it- is ready for the conflict, "and proposes
to fight it out on this line, if it takes all summer."
_Evidently, somebody will undergo a thorough com
minution before the matter is finally disposed of.
It is quite generally supposed that the District At
torney will be heard from in a peculiar way, in this
connection.
The case of Andrews, the rioter, will be tried in
the United States Circuit during the early portion
of the coining week - . The district attorney, who is
collecting the evidence to be used for the prosecu
tion, has requested any citizens having knowledge
of the accused which may be available to communi
cate it in anticipation of the trial. If all that is al
leged of this man be susceptible of proof, it will
assuredly fare hard with him.
The past week has been notably murderouS, The
"street statues," as they are suggestively called, in
lieu of the more Vulgar title of "corner loafers,""
have exhibited a marked enthusiasm in their pro
fesionial ways. One of then pugnacious rascals
slew a policeinan who was endeavoring to ellect his
arrest. Another, after stealing a citizen's hat
essayed to diipoze of an officer in a similar - manner'
felling him to the ground, and firing live shots al
him, two of which took effect. A third ease,
resulting less seriously, occurred at the corner of
Broadway and Suring - street. It appears that an
attach(t Of the Narsludis office had apprehended
notorious bounty-jumper, who, alter attempting to
use his pistol, was clubbed into respectability. At
the. before-mentioned corner, the "street statues"
assembled in force, and essayed a rescue. The
off i cer, bo ng reiworeed, prepared to fight his way.
Revolvers were drawn, and the crowd of spectators,
which by this time had gathered in one compact
ma-s ; lost it Coliegion, and parted into individual
particles, each undertaking a rapid festination for
his own probable well-being. The serious determi
nation evinced by the officials kind - the effect of
relegating: the statuesn around varkm, corners,
and the bounty-jumper was carried off to meet his
kbxnu. (71(V.ESAN T.

CANI CADWALADEII—FLAG-itAisnw AND ILINO
Camp Ca dwalader, situated on Islington lane,near
Ridge avenue, is in every respect a model one. At
a distance it presents the appearance of a nourish
ing village, with numerous chimneys. On nearer
approach we find the buildings to be colonels'
quarters, receiving-room, quartermasters' depa
rt
ment,-elerks' offices, commissary, accounting, regis
tering. and other offices, officers , quarters, barracks,
kitchen, hospital, guard house, photographic
gallery, Cc. The barracks are ten in number, and
are capable of accommodating two thousand men.
They are etch one hundred feet long, and twenty
feet broad. Every attention has been given to
promote the comfort of the men who may be in the
camp, end much praise is duo to Col. Zulich,
under whose directionS the buildings were framed,
for the care exhibited in the promotion or the corn . -
ibrt awl health of the men under his charge. There
is one department worthy of notice, the rogues ,
gallery, or rather, the nounty 7 jumpers , gallery,
containing portraits of 285 notorious bounty
jumpers. If the pictures taken here were dupli
cated - Dna sent to all recruiting* stations in this
and adjoining States, much money would be sexed
to the Covernment, and the profession of bounty - -
jumping would cease to be profitable. Yesterday
afternoon the Teen were marched out into the main
avenue. - and after being reviewed by Lieutenant
Colonel Zulich a magnificent flag was dung to the
breeze.
Alter the flag-ra Icing Capt. Orlando 13. Griffiths,
on the part of the 011icers of Camp Cadwalader,
presented Lieut. Col. %Illicit with an elaborately
chased gold seal ring, set with a large and beautiful
amethyst stone, on which was cut the letter "Z."
The ring has on its sides the arms of the - United
States and of Pennsylvania, and inside the follow
ing, "Presented to Col. Z. M. Zulich by the Offi
cers of Camp Cnltn-fllnder. ,s The ring is valued at
*SO. On presenting it Capt. Griffiths said:
COL. : The officers of Cc inp oadwalader
have conferred upon me the honor of presenting to
you this humble testimonial of their gratitude and
respect km you as their commanding- officer. Since
your entrance into the service, arse] your assuming
eommand of this camp, see have always found
in you the scholar, gentleman, and soldier.
This is useless, and in comparison with tho
feelings that actuated the presentation is small.
lean enure you that I but express the sentiments
of all the officers and men of Camp Cadwallader,
when I tender to you their heartiest wishes for your
health, happiness, and prosperity for many years to
come.
On neeepting the beautiful testimonial, Lien
tenant Colonel Zulieh said
CArTAIN: It is with feelings of more than oval
nary emotions and einbawssaient that I find myself
called upun to respond to your kind remarks in con
veying this token of respect from the officers at this
gtirrisim. I need not say to you, sir, that if there
is one thing on earth that a soldier holds dearer
to his heart than any other it is the consciousness
that he has not only the esteem but the confidence
of all under his command, and I feel proud to
know that from the 14th day of rday,l.B6l, the date of
my first commission, to this moment not a single in
stance has occurred in my military career to make
me regret that rpledged my life to my country and
my country's cause, in this most unholy of rebel
lions. It has been my privilege upon fifteen hotly
contested fields of battle to show my devotion to our
common cause, and with the kind and protecting
arm of an all-wise Providence I trust to be enabled.
to perform my humble part until every star in
the bright constellation of States shall shine
with resplendent brilliancy upon the 'azure
field of that good old flag, and the shackles shall
have dropped - from the limbs of the last bondsman
in our broad land, and until our erring brethren
shall. by the chastening rod of a mysterious Provi
dence, again rest in peace under the flag they dared
to desecrate and the country they have endeavored
to destroy.
Again thanking - you, and through you, the officers
ander my command, for this token or their respock
and esteem and trusting that the glad tidings of peace
may soon ' be heralded throughout the land, and
that our swords may be turned to ploughshares, and
that smiling faces and loving hearts may soon wal
e:ChM you all back to inure peaceful avocations in
future life, is my sincere wish and constant prayer.
After the presentation, the company sat down to
a well-prepared repast. The ceremonies wore en
livened by the periiirmatme of a. number of beautiful
airs by Douglass' Philadelphia Brigade Baud.
Ourt ppm - ES:Tic MARKETS. A trip
through our retail market houses will fully remind
the visitor of the bounty of Providence. There
seems to be no scarcity of the articleS enumerated
11004, and to which we affix the current prices of
the day. Strawberries made their appearance yes
terday, but there are no rulin- rates. The sum: of
fifty cents per box. was demanded for each box, con
tabling about one pint. The crops of vegetables
ore very promising, and though the spring was
backward, yet the soft, warm days of the past two
weeks have had a wonderful and beneficial effect.
In the course of a couple of weeks cherries and
strawberries, gooseberries and green currants, will
be plentiful, It will be seen by our report that
pound butter maintains as high a figure as it did be
tore the anti-butter league assumed a spasmodic ex

A RITIIIOR CORRECTED
The report that a large number of wagons have
been captured by the guerillas turns out to be incor
rect, arising from the circumstance that over sixty
wagons loaded with supplies aisappeareti,but it was
found that they had guile towards Washington,
in company with artillery sent thither.
The mistake caused a great deal of anxiety here,
oe the supplies were wanted at the front.

An attack was made last night on onr right dank,

.t.R, DARER Sk:IVI - NO Iti..temlNE.-Among the thou
sands of valuable testimonials which the Greyer
Baker Sewing Machine has elicited from persons
who have them in- use, we give the following
today from the pen of 111rg. "Henry Ward Beecher:
Grover .5. Baker Sewing Machrn ' e Company, 495 Broad
way, New Pork:
- GENTLEMEN = It gives me the greatest pleasure
to add nry testimony to the unrivalled excellences
of Grover and Baker's Sewing Machine. It is in
my opinion by far the most valuable of any I have
tried. The work - when done is wonderful in its
Strength. More than two-thirds of all the sowing
done in my fandly for the last two years has been
done by Grover & Baker's machine, and I have
never had a garment to rip or need mending, except
those rents which frolicsome boys will make in
whore cloth, and for them your machine has, I sup
pose, no remedy but a patch or darn.
Honestly appreciating the excellences of your
machine as, fully as I have here stated, I could give
it no higher praise than the fa9t that when, my only
daughtm married I gave her this long-tried house
hold friend, depriving myself of its services to
lighten her first assumption of domestic duties.
I can manage any 'machine comfortably, but my
daughter was never willing to use any but GItOVELL

F.:vAIMINE, COMPARE, awn BUT WITH CAME.—
Tfie value of the Sewing Machine in every family
is 100 widely acknowledged to require proof, yet
the great difference between the various machines
in use renders it policy to look into the merits of the_
different ones before purchasing. And it. is this
comparison that the "rlorenee" Machine (sold at
WO Chestnut street) invites. This machine,for all
practical purptnes required in a family, is 111? best in
Ver/d—a. statement - which its proprietors are
submitting to the most rigid test of comparison.
Not - one buyer in fifty but decides in - favor of the
"Florence,' , after comparing it, with °there. Then,
vain, the purchasers run not the slightest risk in
selecting the" Florence," as every instrument sold
is warranted to give satisfaction, ur the money is
refunded after trial.

WHAT THE HIAWATHA DOES.
It restores faded and gray hair and whiskers to their
original color. It brings up the natural shading of out
hair with another, thus giving the hair a perfect life
appearance, so that the most critical observer cannot
detect its use. It makes harsh hair soft and eility, stops
Lts falling out, cleanses it and the scalp from all impu
rities, it es readily applied and wiped from the skin as
any hair dressing, and entirely overcomes the bad ef
fects of previous use of preparations containing sulphur,
sugar of lead, &c.
