How McClellan Took ManaSSAS.
[For The Press.]
Heard ye how the great McClellan,
lie, the wether with the bell on,
He, the head of all the asses,
Heard ye how he took Manassas 1
When the anaconda plucky,
Flapped his tail in old Kentucky ;
When up stream the glinboats paddled,
And the thieving Floyd skedaddled ;
Then the chief of all the asses,
Ilear&the words " Go take Masassas."
Forty brigades wait around him—
Forty blatant trumpets sound him,
As the pink of all the heroes
Since the time of fiddling Neroes ; ,
"Now , s the time," cry out the masses,
Show your pluck, and take Manassas."
Contrabands came flocking to him—
"Ho, the enemy flies ! pursue him."
"No," said George, " don't start a trigger
On the word. of any nigger;
Let no more the rascals pass us,
/ know all about Manassas."
When at last a prowling Yankee,
(No doubt, long and lean and lanky),
Looklni out for new devices,
Took the wooden-guns as prizes ;
Said ho, "I swow, ere daylight passes
i'll take a peep at famed Manassas."
Then up to the trenches boldly
marched he; they received him coldly;
Nary reb was there to atop him,
Nary mince ball to drop him ;
Gathering courage, in he passel,—
" Jerusalem !'"Pve taken Bianassas.!!
Bold McClellan heard the story—
" Onward, men, to fields of glory—
Let us show the rebel foemen,
'When we're ready we're not slow men;
Walt no more for sprlnglng.grassos—
,l Onward ! onward tto Manassas.”
Baggage trains were loft b*lnd him
In his eagerness to Lind them ;
Upward the balloons ascended,
To see which way the rebels tended;
Thirty miles away his glasses
Swept the horizon around Manassas.
Out of sight the foe retreating,
Answered back no hostile greeting ;
None could toll, as off he paddled,
Whitherwarc he had skedaddled.
Then; the chief of all the asses
Orled, "-Hurrah! I've got Manassas,"
Future day will tell the wonder,
How the mighty anaconda
Lay supine along the border,
With the mighty Mac to lord hor—
Tell on shaft, and storied brasses,
How he took the famed Manassas.

ricavisoar COMMIT= FOR THS RBORUITING OS
ITSUTBD STATRS COLORED TROOPS.
The abolition of human slavery in the State of
Maryland becoming a fixed fact yesterday, by the
act of the Governor, seconding the efforts of the
people of that section of the Union, the event was
celebrated in Philadelphia yesterday in a variety of
ways. The colored population had their own time
In their respective localities in our city. Lombard
and South streets, where many of the "proscribed
race live, were gay, with flags flying from all the
windows of many dwellings. Salutes of thirty-live
guns each were fired in different parts of Phila
delphia. Six companies of the colored regiment at
Camp Wm. Fenn made a parade, and their soldierly
appearance was the subject of much admiration.
The event of the day took place last evening—or,
rather, the festivity culminated in a grand demon
stration .at the headquarters of the Supervisory
Committee'for Colored Troops, on Chestnut street,
above Twelfth. The building, with Its immense
transparency when fully illuminated, gave the en
tire structure a magical appearance—gay, attrac
tive, and eminently patriotic. In the midst of the
glare of red fire, reflecting upon tea thousand up
turned faces, the waving of flags and other ensigns
of patriotism, the musical notes of the band, a meet
irg was improvised by Mr. Thomas Webster. An
address was delivered by Mr. Thomas N. Coleman,
though suffering from the effects of a blow that he
received from a sneaking Copperhead assassin on
Monday night. He was loudly eheered, and he
thanked his God, as a Marylander, that the bright
sun of liberty now illumines his native Stet's).
Mr. Coleman was followed by Mr. Trimble, of
Tennessee, Hon. Win, D. Kelley, Captain N. H.
Edgerton, of Chester county, recently promoted by
the indomitable General Butler for gallant conduct.
The Captain was wounded in a recent battle. He
was followed by Wm. H. Maurice, who recited the
poetry,"" No Slave Beneath the Stew Flag. , '
Major Dehring and other gentlemen made patriotic
speechea, and the greatest enthusiasm prevailed.
TEE TRANSPARENCY AND ILLUMINATION.
The transparency, taken as a whole, is the largest
and one of the most imposing ever displayed to pub
lic view ; it certainly is very appropriate to the age
in which we live. It attracted the attention or
thousands of people yesterday ; and last evening, it
being brilliantly illuminated for the first timo,
dense mass of citizens congregated in front thereof.
It may be said to be the production of the genicurof
lir. Thomas Webster, a gentleman who has done
the "State some service. , in the supervision of the
recruiting of the United States colored troops. The
transparency consists of a number of pictures,
graphically portrayed by the skill of members Of the
.Artists' Sketch Club or Philadelphia. We commence
our description of the scene at the top. On the
centre is a cupola surmounted by a deg./Aar about
fifty feet fang from which the emblem of onr nation
I
is unfurled. n the gentle westerly breeze of last
evening it displayed its glorious stars and stripes to
admiring thousands. In the cupola is a large bell,
with the motto the came as on old Independence
bell, that was rung when young America struck for
freedom from• British usurpation and tyranny:
"Proclaim liberty throughout all the land, and to
all the inhabitants thereof."
Beneath the bell, and extending across • the top of
the transparency, is the following, in large letters,
constructed of gas Jets :
040.00040.0.0.0.0.4><>00.0.4>0.0.0<0
GOD SAVE THE REPUBLIC. *

Tiffs motto is fl anked on the righ t and left with
two lights, each representing the lamp of life.
Immediately beneath the motto is a large picture,
24 beet 7 in. b' 8 lee ,t reaching across the entire front
of the building. This represents the storming of
Port Hudson, a rebel stronghold taken by the black
soldiers, and which success contributed greatly
to the o pening of the "Father of Waters," the Mis
sissippi, by which rebeldom was split in two. The
picture is very grakhic and artistic. The motto,
from a poem of Mr. tyeorge Boker, is on the top :
6 !lfever in field or tent scorn a black regiment.) ,
Immediately 'beneath the storming scene of Port
Hudson are three panels, each being two feet by
eight feet two inches, containing choice maxims or
mottoes of Washington, Jefferson and Patrick
Henry. They read as follows :

In the centre of the scene is • a large arch, la feet
Ivide.nad 21 feet high. The arch is very elaborately
bobbed, being a representation of stone work, 13
in number, supported by Corinthian columns. Each
atone represents II virtue, enumerated as follows:
liellgion, Liberty, Education, Charity, Fraternity,
"Frugality, Temperance, Truth, Courage,Justice,
Love, Labor,Honesty. We may say that the Key
stone of the arch is labelled Justice. Upon the apex
or crown of the arch is a representation of the coat
of arms of the State of Maryland, over which is the
word "licsurgetts," which means arising after
awakenbig. Just above the spring line of the arch
is the following :

A well-paintea eagle, holding in its talons the
emblems of peace and war, has a picture within
the scope of the arch. The scroll laming from its
beak, contains the following: "Emancipation in
Maryland Accomplished in 180 g." Beneath tho ea
gle is the following: "Maryland settled by George
Clalvert, Baron of Baltimme—lreland—a Catholic—

On one plinth are the figures 1776, and on the
other 1864. Both plinths contain, beneath the
figures, the word " Faith."
The coat of arms of Maryland, that rests on the
artherown, is flanked light and left by angels
blowing the trump of fame. On either side of the
grand arch are panels four in number, each being
ten feet six inches by five feet nine inches. Tho top
panel to the left represents the wounded snout and
contraband. The former is held in an upright posi
tion, being faint from exhaustion and loss of blood,
which may be seen trickling from his arm. The
contraband is looking towards heaven. The ground
scone represents a Southern canebrake. This paint
ing is taken from liefters' statuette, and it sug
gests a volume of hisM' at once.
The top picture on the right represents a conflict
between a colored soldier and a secosh officer. The
former has his bayonet at the breast of the rebel,
while the other has his uplifted sword, and is about
to deal a second blow; the first blow having already
drawn blood from the soldier. The countenance of
the rebel is a blending of savage ferocity, wildness
of despair, and fear. The soldier has his left foot
firmly upon the rebel flag marked O. S. A. This
represents a scone which already forms an interest ,
ing page in the history of the rebellion, as recorded
in Major General Butler's congratulatory order.
The con teat took place at New Market Heights near
Richmond, Sept. 29,1304.
On the left lower corner represents a slave auc
tion in the State of Maryland. A well developed
descendant of Ham is already on the bleak. He
stands with his arms folded. Behind him is the
auctioneer, a long, lean, lantern jawed specimen
of "nigger. seller," before lftm a group of men of
all sorts and sizes, apparently engaged in bidding
against each other for the possession of the " chat
tel." At the foot of the auotioneer's desk aro the
wife and the children of the slave grouped together.
The wife is downcast ; the tear of anguish at the
thought of separation 1s trickling down her cheek.
The children are too young to appreciate the enor
mity of the affair. The following mottoes are on
this picture. On the top :

"God fixed it certain that whatever day 0
Makes man a elave takes half hie worth away." 0

At the bottom is the following motto :

"Thousands of men, women, and children sold
annually under Maryland's old Constitution to

00000000000000000400000000000
We now turn our attention to the picture on the
right lover corner. Here we observe a school house
in the distance, with its neat cupola and bell sum
moning the rising generation of the "proscribed
race" to school. The scene is' laid in St. Marrs
county, Md. A fine, fat-looking specimen of a
colored woman points to the building dedicated to
purposes of popular education. A little boy and
girl are on the way to the placo thus pointed out
by the matron. This suggestive picture cannot help
receiving popular favor of all intelligent classes
who know the value of education. On the top of
this picture is the well-known motto :
0000 00000 0000000000.000
"'Tie Education forms the common mind." C,
0000000000 - 00000000000000000<4,
At the lower part of the panel or painting is the
following inscription : "12,000 colored soldiers now
at the front fighting for the Union." • •
The lower panel, which forms, it may be said, the
base of the entire picture, is 18 feet 6 Inches in
length by 6 feet wide. It contains on one end.a
good likeness of President Lincoln, and on the other
an excellent representation of the next Vice Presi
dent, Andrew Johnson, of Tennessee. Between
these portraits are the following words :

. The space between the front of the honk+ and the
'transparency is appropriated to the portraits of the
following named men of progress, civil, military,
and naval : Generale Grant, Sheridan, Sherman,
Butler, Phelps; Admirals Farragut, Porter, Du
pont; Captain Winslow, Hon. E. M. Stanton, Hon.
Wm. D. Kelley, ' and Hon. John Hickman. The
transparency was illuminated with 154 gas jets, the
entire expense being raised by voluntary contribu
tions. The artists engaged in thus transferring to
canvas the design of Mr. Webster are Messrs. Geo.
F. Benseil, Joseph Beale, J. D. Wilson, E. B, Bon
sell, D. R. Knight, and Wm. E. Smith.
In addition to the above, a fine painting of a co
lored soldier shot down; but still holding the flag
np. Another soldier Is about to take the emblem of
nationality from 'him.. This transparency was ex
hibited at the opposite side of the way. There were
many flags also exhibited containing the following
mottoes :
"I call the American war an aristocratic rebellion
against democratic government. "—Richard Cobden.
"Oh ! fear not the Piave when he breaks from his chain,
The man made a freeman grows safe in his gain. "
Friedrich. Schiller.
Daniel O'Connell, Father Theoba.ld t and 60,200 other
Irishmen, wrote to Irishmen in America these words :
- "Oppose slavery by all the peaceful means in your
polder. Join with the Abolitionists everywhere, they
are the consistent advocates of liberty. Tell every man
that you do not understand liberty for the white man
and afavery for the black man; and that you are for
liberty for all, of every color, creed, and country."
"200,000 men of color are now fighting for their coun

ABSKULT*ITII A BILLY.
J. W. Gillingham was arraigned; yesterday after
noon, at the Central Station, on the charge of com
mitting an assault and battery on Officer Lazalere,
and striking him a severe blow on his left eye with
a billy. Several witnesses were examined. The
testimony summed up as follows: As the Soldiers'
Campaign Club was pasaing along Chestnut street,
on Monday evening, an attack was made upon some
of the members by a gang standing on the sidewalk,
near Sixth street. One soldier was struck a severe
blow on the - head. Officer Lasater° arrested the
fellow who committed the outrage, and, while taking
him to the lock-up, Gillingham was seen to pull a
black-jack from his side-pocket, reach over one of
the witnesses, and dealt the officer a blow. Several
witnesses testified to the same state of facts, viewed
from as many different stand points. The accused
was bound over in the sum of $2,000 to answer at
court.

Ragan, at a tavern on Cherry street, between Eighth
and Ninth, had a final hearing yesterday. He watt
bound over to answer at court. •
• SERIOUS THREAT.
John Guy was arraigned, yesterday, on the charge
of threatening to kill Alexander McKnight. It
seems, from the evidence, that the accused went to
the hcuse of McKnight, in West Chestnut street,
and asked if he was in. A female replied " No,"
and desired to know, if he had any particular busi
ness with him. Ho replied " Yes ;" that he was
going to "cut his guts out." For this threat the
accused was arrested. He was put under bail, in
the snm of Poo, to keep the peace.

in a passenger ; in a little while two goats were
picked up in the street and placed in the wagon.
The witness further testified that two weeks ago he
