Criticism of the Administration:
It has been charged by the opparienti of
the' Administration that its supporters never
criticise its military measures, are never
willing to admit errors in the several plans
-it has adopted, or faults in their execution.
,Freedom of discuisiOn'has always been one .
of the most cherished privileges of our na- ;
lion, one to *which prompt: decision, pru
•deuce, and almost'every other principle, has
been subordinated. Right or wrong, it has
become a fixed and settled part of our po
licy. No one can doubt but that in the se
veral political contests which have from
lime to time agitated our country, the privi
lege of freely and, openly expressing' one's
• opinions, of freely discussing the measures
of the Administration, had been most bene
ficial. These struggles had for their object
simply to determine principles of adminis
tration, and where and what measures
should be adopted. Each party admitted
itself bound by the Constitution, and dif
fered only as ~to .the interpretation of
that instrument. Each laboro—to , : per %
feet, or assumed to do so, our glorionS , ,
Union ; each sought by different measures d
to extend its benefits to the yet unsettled
portion of our wide domain. It is obvious
that circumstances are now widely dif
ferent. It is no longer a simple question
of policy. The question we are called
upon to decide is vital, is one of life and
death—one on which the existence of the
nation is staked. It is obvious that in the
awful circumstances in which we arc
placed that it becomes the duty of every
good and loyal citizen, however he may
disapprove the several military and politi
cal measures which the Administration
may see proper to adopt, to give them his
earnest and cordial support, trusting to
time and circumstances for their improve
ment. In Military movements much de
pends on the manner in which they are
executed. Plans not radically wrong often
lead to important results, when intelli
gently and energetically executed. It is
useless to • impose upon a general a plan
Which he does not approve or really com
prehend. Many unforeseen circumstances
arise during a campaign which require the
original plan to be modified, and it is
obvious that this can only be done by
one who thoroughly comprehends its prin
ciple and designs. During the campaign
movements have often to be decided upon
Almost instantly ; no time is -left for delibe
ration or consulting the books. ' He who de
liberates under - such Circumstances is lost.
It is obvious that the general must have
his plan at his- fingCrs' ends, and this he
cannot do unless he thofoughly compre
hends its spirif,Or, in other words, unless
it is his Own. It is obvious, therefore, that
previous to or during the campaign all'
good citizens should abstain from - doing
any act directly or -remotely cale,ulated to
convey information to the enemy, or cal
culated to impair, the execution of the plans
of the generals. With these restrictions
every citizen has the -undoubted -right to
freely criticise the past, - 10-;point out its
errors, and how they may bp avoided In
the future.
When we consider the circumstances in
which the Administration found - itself at
the commencement of this stupendous
teri
it has made mis a -es, an i tr f r e ae irri l Zs o s natum
bled ou its way, but that it has -at all pro
gressed. Called to the head of affairs at
the time that a long-organized rebellion al
ready. existed in several States, and tacitly
- was in operation in others ; without an
army, without a navy, the credit of the
Government almost gone, no money in the
Treasury, all the forts in the Southern
States—forts constructed 'at the common
expense, and for the common defence
-with the exception of three, and these held
by, a mere handful of men, seized and oc
cupied by the rebels; at home a powerful
party, which, with the exception of two
short intervals, had had possession of
the Government for nearly half a cen
tury, watching it with jealous eyes,
zealous to clutch at its short-comings,
and make them the fulcrum to hoist
itself again in the position from which * au
indignant people had just hurled it; a
:North not yet united on the policy of-co
v,rcion ; a South bent on extending its
limits to the Potomac, and either to forcibly
lake possession of the Governtrien4, and to
again, by means of its allies, rule the na-
lion, or, failing in this, to establish its
independence, seize the capital of the na-
lion—such were some of the difficulties
'which beset the path of the Administration
*when it assumed the reins of government.
In addition to these internal troubles it was
called upon to watch the desigris of the two
most powerful nations of Western Europe—
nations jealous of our prosperity—whose
manufacturers depended upon the Southern
States for the supply of one of their most
important staples. Never in the history of
the world had greater difficulties been
encountered ; never have they been more
essentially overcome. Compare the mild-
mess, the moderation of our Administration
Writh the wild energies of the Committee
of Public Safety in France, or the stern
despotism ruling at Richmond, how just,
)tow gentle towards its opponents, is the
one ; how cruel, how unjust, are• the
We do not claim that . all the
others
credit of our success belongs to the Admin-
tistration. No ; it belongs, first of all, to
:our glorious, patriotic, and intelligent Peo
ple, who have rallied around the •flag and
:upheld it in every varying -circumstance-of
the war)", supported the Government in 'all
'of its measures, and silenced the would-be
traitors in high places. The glory of our
- salvation does not belong to any one man
or set of men, but to the whole people.
Mr. George Bullock.
The Union nomination of the 'Sixth Con-
Iressional district has been unanimously
given to GEORGE But. - Locx, Esq., who is
well knoWn and highly estimated in that
:district, where he resides, and in which, as
an extensive and liberal manufacturer, he
gives employment to hundreds, who cheer
fully accept their position
* under such an
-excellent " boss. " Mr. .Bermocx . , the
_father, was largely and profitably engaged
'in the wool business for many years, until
-his death, and educated his sons, whom he
successively,admitted to an interest in his
firm, as business men—his own example„"no
doubt, helping to encourage them in the
way which they should go. Their enter
priae, judgment, industry, and probity, have
:placed "Benjamin Bullock's Sons," (as
^the firm is .called;) among, our most es
. teemed and most successful merchants
and manufacturers, and the compliment
to Mr. 'GEORGE BULLOCK is well be
_ stowed, because it is paid by electors whom
he knows, and who know and appreciate
his sterling - worth. In politics he has

Mr. James McHenry.
A compliment has just been paid, at New
York; to an excellent gentleman, who, now
a resident in England, is a Philadelphian
by birth, and, in these critical times, has
`effectively shown that he does not forget
native city. Mr. ;TAxEs MCHENRY,
who was not unscathed by the commercial
typhoon of 1857, which shook Mr. GEORGE
PEABODY and other business men, has
since honorably met all his obligations, to
the last cent; and discharged them, with
full interest. In 'London, he heard that
our Corn Exchange, always liberal and pa
triotic, was sending regiments into the
field, and sent "a cheque for $5OO to aid that
patriotic purpose. To the city of Philadel
phia, Mr. MellExin - contributed a bat
tery of artillery, consisting of Whit
worth guns. At New York, in the last
week, there has been on view at the
manufacfurer's, a service of plate to be pre
sented to Mr. MeELENny. It consists of
four vegetable dishes, four wine coolers,
three salvers, and other smell articles 'of
solid silver, richly gilt and beautifully
chased, together with a magnificent shaft
or column, representing - in a scale of
eighteen-. feet two hundred miles of the•
Atlantic and Great Western Railroad, which
yvas completed in two hundred days. This
cOiumn also is solid silver, thickly gilt,
and elaborately chased, the smaller co:
him us representing commerce and industry,
while portraits of the leading men con
nected with the railroad are suspended in
the centre. There 'are thirty thousand words
164 figures,upon it and every gradeten the
road is distinctly indicated, and it took one
of the ablest letter-cntters in New York five
months to engrave this column. The'in
scription is brief and telling, and simply
reads, "'The Atlantic and Great - Western
Railroad Coinpany. In commemoration of
the completion of two htuadred
,miles of the
line in two hundred days. James Mc:
Henry, Esq., contractor. 1864." The
cost of this magnificent tribute to enter-
Oise, probity; and skill, is $15,000, and its
execution, we suspect, will rather astonish
HUNT, and ROSKELL, on the other side of
the great water, who stand at the head of
the 'English trade in producing personal
testimonials of • this character. Mr. Me-
HxxnY amply merits the splendid compli
ment thus paid to him.
Striking Omissions at • the McClellan
Meeting.
No feature connected with great popular.
meetings is so indicative of the sense of
those who participate in_ them as are their
banners, transparencies, &c., and the
mottoes and inscriptions they contain.
These are often an unerring index.to the
feelings and opinions of the assemblages
that display them. We occupied a position
on Saturday evening from which we were
enabled to read all the lanterns and trans
parencies, and other emblems and devices,
carried in, procession by, the different ward
associations as they marched to jndeperi
, dence: Square. With this fact we were
'deeply impressed, that among the multi
tudes of mottoes and devices there was not
a solitary, one expressive of rejoicing over
our recent splendid land and naval victories;
not a lantern or transparency that did 'honor
to the heroic GRANT, the conqueringSaeu
MAI; or the intrepid FARRAGIIT ;not
word of cheer or congratulation for our
noble soldiers in the field; not a line or
letter of rejoicing over the fall of the rebel
strop: hold, Atlanta, or the triumphs of:
. - .
:reanders ! How dishonoring- to , thg. holy
cause in which they have jeoparded life and
limb ! How cruel to the memories of the
'sainted dead ! And is this, forsooth, the
ancient " Democracy," that once was so
proud when the glorious old starry- 2 flag• of
freedom waved in triumph over foreign and
domestic foes ? Alas, how degenerate !
how fallen ! '
Another noteworthy fact was the absence
of all -mottoes or devices reflecting the remo
test discredit on the rebels ! We saw no
transparency bearing on JEFFERSON DAVIS
or any of his affiliated traitors ; none to ex
emplify the shame of the murderers of oui
sons and . brothers ; none to reflect on the
base incendiaries that have laid Chambers
burg in ashes. Had . the authors and abet
tors of that meeting not heard _that there
is rebellion in the land ? Pity, when they
Arranged their programme, there was not
some kind friend at hand to notify them of
the fact .! Badinage aside, shame, shame
upon the projectors of an assemblage of
American citizens that could so desecrate
the classic ground attached to the old Hall
of Independence as to pass over in studied
and systematic silence the fact that traitors
are in arms against the very existence of
our Government and nation, and ignore the
soldiers engaged in their overthrow !
Another oinission was noteworthy, al
though of minor importance. In the good
olci times, when the'Democratie party was
'yet free from affiliation with Secessionists—
the.
September procession was, almost al
ways, graced with a goodly number of
transparencies bearing the significant in
scription :
" Did you hear the nom from MAINE'?"
We saw nothing of this sort in the pro
cessions of Saturday evening. Doubtless
there existed some good reason for the
omission.
The. studied slight of our brave soldiers,
now confronting the xebel hordes of the
South, we trust they will be duly' notified
of, in'order that they may know the genu
ineness and sincerity of the strong profes
sions of attachment expressed in their be
half by the conclave that• met at. Chicago.
Cold comfort did they receive on-Saturday
cycning, truly !
WHERE were the leaders of the new De
mocracy on Saturday evening ? As for the
leaders of the old party, we . know they do
not train in the crowd. Where was Mr.
REED ? Is that accomplished diplomatist
to do nothing but write articles for a
forlorn and shabby newspaper ? He' has
certainly done enough to entitle him to
have a speech printed. Where was Mrs.
NICKLERY INGERSOLL ? The old lady has
been studying the effect of leather on
French shoemgkers, and has a great deal to
say. Where 'was HENRY-M. PHILLIPS ?
or is it possible that the shrewd and dap
per attorney is still making up his mind?.
Where was the loud and lofty CARRIGAN ?
Has his Chicago effort paralyzed him ?
Where was Mr. Justice WooDwAnry? He
might have told us his 'opinions ahout let
ting the South go, and slaveholders fight
ing for their rights. Where was WM.
V. MCGRATH and the little company
of hungry War Democrats who are
said to be ' among the collection of
Copperhead :curiosities ? Have these un
fortunate beings actually perished from
inanition.? Where was LEWIS 'C. CAS-
SIDY? He - must make a speech if he ex
pects his tenth or eleventh (we forget the
exact number) nomination for District At
torney. Where was FRANK HUGHES ? He
must still be in favor of Pennsylvania going
:with the South. Where was Judge BLACK ?
and JAMES BUCHANAN ? and BIGLER ?
They at least might have written letters.
Gentlemen of the Democratic party, you
must make these men work for their living.
If. MCCDELLA_N should be elected they will
-not "be so reluctant about speaking for
• bread and meat. They have all their
• Citit:,.airinged and determinea, and they
shobld' be' made to • work for them. Still
•
their :silence ,is natural. No amount of
promised cheese can keep rats among the •
timbers of sinking ship, and 'the prospects
of • McCDEEGLIN • are cerlainly gloomy
enough to justify any amount of apathy
and laziness:
•
SELDOM. have patriotic men'ind men of
true pine spirit felt, •more sorrow and
shame than in looking upon the. noisy de
lusion of Saturday night. In all the flam
ing procession whose managers so cleverly
contributed to make it repeat itself like a
dissolving view, there was not one motto
denouncing treason, or rejoicing over the
victory at Atlanta. We do not need
to be told that this demonstration was
largely swelled by ignorant mobs from
New York and New Jersey, for in our
own city we havO never been Called to
witness so great an amount of maudlin and
clamorous stupidity. The orators of the
. evening were mostly young gentlemen, who
more or less resembled DICKENS' Simon
Tappertit declaiming before the apprenf
tices' club of " bloody avengers." Our
noble public men, who have in former days
given their wealth and labor to equip rein
forcements for General TioIeCLELLAN ; our
patriotic societies, who have sent many regi
ments to the field, and the great body .of
earnest patriots who supported and ap
plauded the great Sanitary Fair for the bene
fit of our 'wounded soldiers, were scoffed
and sneered at. This is not a proper work
for, prudent and ambitious young men, whO
wish to deserve well of the future ; and it
is the most deplorable way of saving the
Union and electing that infinitesimal states
man, "Little MAC." The Democratic
meeting of Saturday evening was a fierce
demonstration of unwarlike men—a jubi
lation celebrating defeat of every kind, and
anticipating defeat at the polls—an organ
ized panic. It presages the triumph of the
Union party.
THE Democrats 'of Missouri, who stand
just on the boundary of, rebellion, sugge;st
very curiously the character and aims of
the - tarty which nominated ;i General Mc-
CvlimArr. Their candidate for Governor ;
Trtiffmes PRICE, is a npar'relative andnOt
ungympithizing friend of General STER
LING PRICE, whose guerilla bands have
ravaged the State.; and . Colonel McFnitnntr,
candidate for Secretary of State, once or
dered down the American flag from its
proper Nam, that its presence might not
affront Secessionists. His soldiers refused
to peyform slidh base service, and stacked
their arms..; The rest of the ticket is in
keeping with-these premises. Missouri is
not a solitary case, from which instances
such as these may be probed. Indiana, Il
linois, Ohio, and even Pennsylvania and
New York, show us men of marked parti
san eminence who encouraged the rebellion
for the very same reason that they support
the Chicago nomination. Democrats still
profess to believe that , the election of Mc-
CLELLAN and the victory of his party is
going to effect anything else than the inde
pendence of the South. This argues a
credulity not so respectable, but infinitely
greater in degree than the faith which
,could remove mountains. • •
THE ADvANmAGEs of a draft have been
made apparent by experience. Unques
tionably it furnishes a superior class of sol
diers. Upon volunteering alone it will not
do to depend. As it has been, thousands
of the worst class, tempted by large boun
ties, enlisted with the- intention of desert
ing on the first favorable opportunity, or,
being unable to endure the fatigues of the
campaign, have had to be discharged. To
this cause, more than any other, have we
owed the failure of our several campaigns.
Tun conscience of Colonel WM. MC
CANDLESS made it impossible for him to
accept the commission of a brigadier gene
ral .from Mr. Imicoia.r. The sensitive
Colonel had no other reason than a dislike
to the policy of the Administration. If this
Colonel could not serve because of an un
pleasant national policy, why does he sup
port a general who, by holding his commis
sion, endorses.that'policy ?

A CORUESPONDENTiIeSireS to know whe
ther GeneraI•McCLELLA.N has resigned his
commission as a major general in the
army, after the manner of General PRE
MONT. He has not done so—nor is Apto
bable that he will. • General McCxgth..kN
belongs to a party who occasionally obtain
offices, but never resign them. The last
familiar example is that of Mr. Justice
WOODWARD, who led a political party and
administered justice at the same time. To
be sure, the Judge tarnished his ermine by
thus degrading the bench ; but he also
served his party. General MCCLELLAN is
doing pretty much the same thing. , ,
WE wonder how Peace Democrats, like
Mr. REED and Mr. INGERSOLL, relish3he
idea of voting for a person who may *to
morrow be sent to fight " their
.misguided
brethren." It is bad enough for General
MoCLELLA.w. to have written such a letter,
but think.of the insult to their feelings in
wearing a hireling, mercenary sword !
'As the brave Coloncl_SrcKLEs and the
officers of his regiment were in the parlors
of the Union League, receiving the flag
from the bands of the League, a mob of
men, Carrying transparencies, passed along,
shouting and groaning. They were Demo
crats. An officer remarked, " Those'groans
are suggestive, .but heretofore we have
heard them In 'Virginia."
TWERP. - is some difficulty among our
friends as to how the war began. A Demo
cratic orator makes this explanation. 'The
rhetoric is exceedingly touching : -
"The solution of this question is, that fifty years.
ago there appeared on the horizon in the Easter&
States of this. Union a black cloud, no larger than a
man's hand; that cloud, stimulated by the passions
of designing politicians, has overshadowed the whOle
land with its black mouth, and forced one section to
rise in rebellion against the other."
From the fact that the cloud had a
" black mouth," and was " stimulated,"
we presume it was given to braby and
water. -
WE are told that the "'MM. _Rica. Verr.t. "
made a " powerful
.and x .,eloquent" address
at Reading recently. Will not some kind
friend send us a ;report ? Not to know
what " Hon. Rrcir." is saying at a time
like this is dreadful.. He must not be per
mitted to confine himself to Girard College
and education in a time like this.
A COPPEREMAD newspaper makes this
jubilant :announcement: in reference to the
meeting on Saturday eyening :
The great feature of the demonstration by this
Ward was the display made by thirtylour young
ladles in. open omnibuses. They repro anted the
States, and each was clad In white, and carried a
guidon inscribed with the name of a State. - One
young lady represented the Goddess of Liberty."
This was certainly " a great feature."
A DANNER borne by - sonic , of our Demo-
erotic friends in the'FOurth Ward on Sa
turday said, "We will sacrifice our lives in
defence of our liberties:!' From this vie
presume that the Ward will fill its quota.
MANY - of the Democratic newspapers
speak of the Union soldiers being "Lur
coues hirelings." Is this not a reflection.
upon General ItIeCLELLAw, who draws the
salary of a major general ?
THE absence of JEFFERSO2S, DAVIS from
the meeting on Saturday evening was, we
are requested to state, occasioned by cir
cumstances over which he had no control.
That eminent Democrat is laboring earnest.
ly for the triumph of his candidate.

in connection with the fact that during a considerl

thousand, were tilled - with patients, and the Other
fact that the number now therein is comparatively
small; shows that the care and attention which the

the most commendable character.

VOLUNTEER RECRUITS FOR THE ARMY.
The following is an extract from the report of
provost marshal, and there are many more to the
same effect : -
• "Recruiting has, been the main business of the
office for the past en days. ' Never before during
the present war, as far as my observation goes, has
there been anything like the interest now displayed
by the people In obtaining men for the army. , The
class of mon enlisting are froze the most respectable
portion of the community, and go into the service
with consciences behind their bayonets. Durk* the

A' Free Election and a. Free Fight.
To the Editor of the Press:
Sin : At the gathering *of the friends of " Tnn
GUNBOAT OBVERAL t " held. in Independence
square hist night, I noticed-a transparency bearing
the - inscription, "A PUB ERECTION OR A FREE
riefer;", and at one Of_ the stands a speaker gave
Ms audience. to understand. that this declaration
had .special reference to the coming eleotion in
Maryland.
Permit me to assure the , soldiers of this "Qon•
federate army in the remit* that, if they mean by a
free' election in Maryland one at which blatant
re‘els and their sympathizers shall vote, in disre-
Itard of the election laws of that State, and If they
place the alternative of, a "free fight" on their
failure to succeed in this purpose, they may rest as
sured that their jighliing qualities will be thoroughly
tested. • •

REBEL WE ON OUR CATTLE CORRAL ON JAMES
WASBINGTON, Sept. 17.—The mail steamer Chit.
Deering, from City Point, brings up about one hun
died rebel deserters. She reports that on Thursday
night two regiments of rebel cavalry made a raid
on our cattle corral, a short distance below City
Point. They came in on our left and succeeded in
getting to the corral, which is along the river, and
drove off a large number of cattle, overpowering
the guard. The alarm, however, was speedily
given, and the troops at: City Point were placed
Mader arms, and a body of our cavalry was sent in
pursuit of the raiders, who can hardly succeed in
getting out of our lines in safety.
At 10 °Wools yesterday morning, the hour at
which the mail 'steamer left City Point, the 'pur
suing force had not returned, but a scout had
brought information to General Grant's head
quarters that our cavalry had come up with a body
of rebels that had been sent out to protect the raid
ing pat ty, and that a severe fight was going on be
tween them. When the steamer reached. Fortress
Monroe yesterday it was reported that our troops
.had captured , a large number of prisoners.
This information is said to have reached. Fortress
.Monroe by telegraph from City Point. •
Reports are conflicting as to the number of cattle
driven off by, the rebels. Sogie say 'that ther got
.thirty five hundred, while others report the number
at less, than one thousand, 'and the latter figure is
believed to be the nearest to the truth. Passengers
by the mail boat report that the rebels had succeeded
in carrying off the entire number, about 2,500 head.
The guard taking care of these cattle was the lath
Pennsylvania Cavalry, about two hundred men, and
of course could not makesmuch resistance against
such a heavy body of the enemy. The attack was ,
made just before daylight yesterday morning, and
the men attempted to open the fence and stampede
the cattle, so as to get thorn nearer our troops, but
they were shot at while making the effort.
Captain Richardson, commissary of subsistence,
had charge of the herd, which was the main supply
for the army in front of Richmond. Ile had scarce...
ly time to save his papers, and his men lost their en
tire effects. It was thought that the entire lot would
be recaptured. . •
Beyond the usual cannonading and pickot thin*,
there is nothing transpiring of importanoe at our
immediate front, though our troops are watchful in
view of expected demonstrations by the enemy.

WASEITIMTON, Sept.:l.7.—A correspondent, dating
near Petersburg, Sept 14th, referring to the late
capture of a rebel picket line, says the accounts of
the affair published. in Northern papers aro erre- •
moue, and fail to dojnstiee to some of the parties
concerned. He says the troops who,were selected
foi the work were the 20th Indiana, commanded by
Colonel a liffeikel, who was killed in the engagement; ;
the 99th Pennsylvania Veteran Volunteers, com
manded by Colonel Biles, one of our bravest and
best officers, and the 2d U.S.- Sharpshooter Veteran
Volunteers, commanded by, Capt. Guest.
All these regiments belong to Gen. De Trobriand's
• brigade, and no regiments in the field have done
snore 'or better service. It is but simplejustice to
say that it was the 99th Pennsylvania Infantry, in
stead" 'of cavalry, that reflected new honor on the
Pennsylvania soldieis In this affair, and It is equal
ly due to the 'Sharpshooters to ere them the credit
that belongs to them. They have been emphatically
a. fighting regiment,,on two occasions losing fifty per i
cent. of their entire strength, and capturing at
Chancellorsville, with the let Sharpshooters, more
prisoners . than they had in their whole command,

It was thought several nights ago that the annoy

'"an agreement had been made by both sides to that
effect ; but It is reported that the same night, as oar
men were changing the pickets, the rebels opened,
and killed and wounded about a dozen of ourthen.
Our soldiers threatened that they would hive re.,
venge for this disorderly act; so; watching a favora
ble opportunity,.-erhen the rebels- had a large num
ber exposed, they blazed away with terrible effect
Those unhurt were not long in seeking the cover of
their works, and finally begged oar men to cease, as
the tiling the night before was by a new regiment,
who were not aware of the agreement.
But the answer sent over,'which was rather more
expressive than elegant, seemed• to satisfy them
that the trace was at an end, and ever since each

while' the remainder- engaged the cavalry pickets

Stand ; but deeming prudence the better part of
valor, they soon rapidly retired on the main' body of
their cavalry, who were stationed three mifes be

General Avertll continued to pursue them, and

catedoharged them in fine style ; routing and driving
them for two miles, until they reached the cover of
General Rhode's division of rebel infantry, who
were drawn up in line to dispute our further advance
and Cover the retreat of their cavalry.
It Is but a simple act of justice to our cavalry,
who have so nobly done the great portion of the
fighting which -has been recently done in this de•
partment, to state here that in every encounter
which they have had with the rebel cavalry they
have invariably whipped and routed them In double
quick time. Dnderthe able leadership of such men
as. Sheridan, Torbert, and Averill, the rebel cavalry
have long since lost any prestige which they may
have had in the earlier days of the war.

on the inhabitants living bear the seaboard, and
captured numbers of-them, the charge being that
they had taken the oath of allegiance to the United
States: Government, and had been in the habit of
trading with the blockading vessels on that station.
One object of the raid was, however, to supply their
ranks with conscripts, l as well as the punishment of
.those who have been in open and friendlylintercourse
with our forces.
Among
those captured were several deserters from
the army, who, until recently, had succeeded in
eluding their vigilance by camping in the swamps
contiguous to their residences. Those living under
the immediate proaction of our naval forces were
unmolested. The guerillas, not content with having
captured
. all the male inhabitants within certain
limits, completed the scheme by robbing their fami
lies, in several instances taking off everything on
the premises that they could conveniently carry
away. Information from other parts. of Volusla
"and the adjacent counties is to the effect that great
distress prevails among the poorer classes of people,

We believe that the:_introduction ,of sewing ma
chines has been the means of prolonging the lives of
thousands of women, and we cannot see how any
sensible man could allow his wife, - sister, or mother
to stitch, stitch away, while they earl for a--very
small sum procure a sewing machine which would
soon
.pay for itself a hundred times over in the
saving of health and time. We have tried the
Wheeler do Wilson machine in our- ownfamily, and:
nearly allour friends have them-in use, and we can
confidently recommend them aabeing the best sew_ .
ing, machine for all family purposes. They are.
simple in construction, easily worked, and not liable
to get out of order, and we have never seen, any Sew
