NEW CoUNTERFEITIL—Counterfeit fives on the
Suffolk Bank, New Jersey, and twos on the Union
B:ink of Delaware, are in circulation. It will be
better to refuse all notes of these denominations
tLe banks named_ as the counterfeits are
pretty well calculated to deceive.
A co unterfpit five dollar note, on tho Charter
Oak Bank, of Hartford, Conn.. and a ten dollar
note, on the Citizens' Bank, of Worcester, Mass.,
acre placed in circulation in Philadelphia a few
days ago. Both notes are good imitations of the
gelatine.
fiair PETARSOteB COUNTSBSBIT DETIRCTOS for
lituary, describes 47 new counterfeit notes,
issued since the first of last December. No bus
iness man is safe without one of these Detectors.
It costs but one dollar per year, monthly, or two
dollars, semi-monthly. Among the spurious
notes is a $8 note on the Bank of Penn township.
This Bank has never issued any $3 bills. Keep
a sharp lookout for 10s, on the Farmers' Bank of
Bucks: county, at Bristol. ''Bucks County" is
very irregular. 00 the lower left, two Indians
are kneeling. s2s and 3s on the Farmers' and
Mechanics' Bank of Philadelphia. This Bank
dots nol Wee any notes under $5.
ltioviso ca THZ Weaws.—Last winter
it was publicly declared by military men in
Washington that success would always follow
the army that upon the enemy's woke."
General hicCiellan'a plan, when he got in front
of strong intrenchments of the enemy, was to use
the spade a little, for the purpose of more effec
tually using his rifled cannon. Moving on the
enemy's works was, however, the mere fashiona
ble idea. But since Burnside moved upon the
defences of Fredericksburg and Sherman on the
fortifications of Vicksburg, most of the people
think that after all the spade is not a bad imple
ment of war.
TES WEST Viautste BILL 810NSD.—After all
that was said to the contrary, the President has
overcome his constitutional scruples, and signed
the kill admitting West Virginia into the Union.
The reasons he is said to have given are as fol—
lows. - They are characteristic, and would be
amusing, if the matter were not too serious to be
made a " Springfield joke : "
1. That it was the correct policy of the Admin
istration to senors as much free territory as pos
sible, and with as little trouble.
2. That as the Wheeling Legislature had been
recognized by Congress as the Legislature of the
State of Virginia, that body had the authority to
adopt measures looking to the division of the
States that the responsibility did not lie with
those who toted for the measure, more than with
those who did not vote agailist it, viz : the inhab
itants of the eastern section of the State.
3. And the principal reason, that be was bound
to take care of his friends.
NEW AND IMPORTANT FINMICLAI. Bisosviss.—

WAR NEWS!
Rebel Attack on Galveston by
Land and Water.
The Union Forces on Shore all taken
Prisoners or Killed.
The "Harriet Lane" Captured and the
Flag-Ship "Westfield" Blown Up.
Nsw ioitK, Jas. .11
The steamer Creole arrived to-night, from New
Orleans, with dates to the ad inst. She was de
tained by Gen. Banks to bring despatches for
Gen. Elslleck.
She passed several gun-boats bound up the
river, and the transport Merrimac, with troupe, lit
the Southwest Pass. Also the gun•boat Kensing
ton.'
Purser Cook, of the Creole, reports, by the
arrival of the gun boat ettiton, at Southwest
Pass.. on the evening of the 8d:—"I learn that
early on the morning Of the let inst. the Rebels
made an Week by land and water on the Federal
forces at Galveston. Our gun. boats were attack
ed by five Rebel steamers, protected by double
rows of bales of cotton and loaded with troops
armed with rifles, muskets, etc.
The Harriet Lane was captured by boarding,
after about All her officers and men, including
Captain Wainwright and Lieutdhant Lee and the
crew, one hundred and thirty all told, had been
killed by musketry from the Rebel steamers.
My informant states that but one or two of the
officers and twelve or fifteen of the crow escaped
death.
"The gun-boats Clifton and Owaaco were en
gaged and escaped, the former losing no men,
and but 'one wounded. The Owasco lost one
killed and thirteen wounded_
"The flag-ship Mop - eh' being ashore in an - I
other channel, her crew were transferred to the
transports, and Commodore Renshaw, fearing
that she would fall into the hands of the Rebels,
blew her up.
" By some mismanagement or accident the ex
plosion occurred before the boat, containing COM.
Renshaw, Lieutenant Zimmerman, and the boat's
crew got away, and they consequently were
blown up with the ship.
"The crew of the Westfield arrived at New,
Orleans in transports, and the remaining troops
are on their way back, as they did not arrive
until the place had been evacuated. All the
fleet is OD the way to Now Wawa "
The Rebel &tree is estimated at 5,000 under
General Magruder. Our land forge, under the
command of CoL Burrell, of Massachusetts,
probably did not mewl 300, the residue not
having arrived, or not haring disembarked at
the time of the fight.
Our loss is estimated at 130 to 160 killed, and
200 prisoners, the navy suffering most.
It is thought the Rebel loss is much more than
our own, as our guns were firing grape and can
ister continually in their midst.
The Rebels had several batteries ashore.
The Federal troops were on the long wharvoe
of Galveston, and it is said repulsed two charges
of the Rebels before they surrendered.
Repulse of the Rebels from Spring
field, Mo.
CINCINNATI, Jon. 14.
The following is Colonel Crabb's ofcial de
spatoh to General Curtis :
"Sratmartzt.n, Mo., Jan. 10.
To Major -General Coarse—General:—The ene
my attaulted us on the Bth. They were about
trim four to cis thousand etrong, with three
pieces of artillery, under command of Marina
duke, Burbridge, Shelby, McDonald and other,,.
They fought from ten o'clock till after dark with
desperation, but were repulsed at every advance.
General Brown was severely wounded in the left
are, um the chouWor, about four o'clock, P.
M. He turned the command over to me. The
foe withdrew to a safe distance, under cover of
the darkness.
"On the morning of the fith they made a demon
stration in full force from another point.. We
made such preparations to meet them as we hall
at our command, but finally they concluded die
cream,' was the better part of valor, and retreat
ed. They then divided their forces, one portion
going to Sandy Spring and the other moving of
on the Rock river road. We did not have suffi
cient force to follow.
"Reinforcements of enrolled militia arriving
daring the night, I sent early this snomibg who!
force could be spared to follow them, harress their
rear, and report their movements.
"Gen. Brown was constantly in the front,
superintending every movement.. By his cool
ness and bravery be has endeared himself to all
under his command. Your obedient servant,
Ti. Cn. uo. OA Could's..
"I'. 3.--6 o'clock P. M.—nothing is yet heard
from Generals Herron or Warren.
To W. H Woodring, the efficient telegrapher
of Springfield, the public is indebted for addi
tional particulars of the Springfield fight. He
left that place at ti A. M., Saturday, bearing from
Colonel Crabb the despatch above given. Hav
ing himself been in the battle, as a worthy soldier
of the Thirteenth Illinois Regiment, Mr. Wood
ring is able to furnish reliable details. His
dispatch addressed to General Curtis' operator,
Lieutenant O'Reilly, is as fotlows
itgliAtiett, Mo., Jan. 11, 9 P. M.—Our loss
is seventeen killed. Three died since the fight.
We buried from thirty to thirty-five of the
Rebels, and they carried many off the field before
the fight was ended. Doa't know how many are
wounded. The Rebels left a great many of their
wounded on the field. I understand that among
ethers, we took one Major as prieonee. Cannot
give the number of prisoners - taken. , very thing
is quiet there now. The telegraph is nearly
wholly destroyed from Springfield to Sandy
Springs, twenty-four miles east. of Springfield.
"We fought from forte. rifle pits, and behind
fences, bestjea same charges by cavalry. My
assistant operator, Briggs, of the Ninly-fourth
Illinois, was killed while fighting. He stood
behind a tree and blazed away whenever he saw
a Secesh. Su lam told. I saw the spot, and
the fence there is riddled with balls. He was
hit in the eye and killed instantly.
"There was but little of the town destroyed,
and that was done by our troops, and was done
to clear the field. The enrolled militia fought
heroically. If it bad not been for their bravery
I do not think we could have held the place."
THE ATTACK ON VICKSBURG%
Gen. Sherman's Repulse Confirmed.
CAMP, Jan. 11, 1863.
An arrival to night from the Yazoo brings au
thentic accounts from Vicksburg. Gen. Sher
man's repulse was complete. The entire force,
under the direction of Oen. McClernand, re-em•
barked on Saturday on transports, closely pres
sed by the Rebel advance, which coming in range
of the gunboats, were driven hack with severe
loss. At the last accounts- the entire Beet of
transports had arrived at Island No. 82, on the
way to Napoleon.
There is nothing definite from Banks or Far
ragut, though rumors of their advance are in
circulation. The engagement was less general
than heretofore reported_ The principal light
ing was done by the center, under comman4l of
Generals Smith and Blair. The conduct of the
latter is highly spoken of. Our loss as near as
could be ascertained, was 600 killed, 1,500
.rounded, and 1,000 missing.
Capt. Moore, with about 100 men, attacked a
camp of 800 Rebels at Huntson's Mills, 85 miles
east of Fort Pillow on the morning of the Bth.
The Rebels were completely surprised. Six
teen Rebels wore killed and forty—six taken
prisoners. Fifty horses and a lot of small arms
were captured. Two Unionists were wounded,
The expedition was absent front Fort Fly.about
twenty—seven hours.
A dispatch from Memphis, this morning, says
that Den. Moetermini(' has arrived at Vicksburg,
and superseded .Gen. Sherman in tho command
there.
Poe the Revelling Qazette and Democrat
hketch of the filstory of Medicine, and
Reasons for Liberal Opinions.
•
• Mona would look for that department of intelleclnal la
bor where the highest reasons prevail, for liberal opinions,
and mutual charity, he would find it in the department of
Medicine, or among professors of the healing art. It
would be difficult to find any occupation or employment
where mind has made bolder dashes in epeculatton, or has
been so often baled In experiment. And it is for this very
reason that syetems of medicine have been etlablished and
overturned with astonishing and unrelenting avidity, for
Mere 414 n two thousand years. Systems, reformatory in
design, each croweediug ope now ruining pavane; in some
points, and now in direct opposition in all points, with the
antecedent one, till the last trace of antiquity, save in
speculation, baa become obliterated; and the reflecting
mind 'meet be convinced, that the sum of human 'wisdom
never was, is not now, nor ever can be, concentrated In any
one system of medicine.
When Medicine bad broken from Ito mysterious prison-
Mines of Egypt and Greece, where it had been for cen Pula
in the exclusive custody of - the priests, and by them . en
veloped in impenetrable and sacred my Mary; It soon be
came the property of institutions of tearing, and was they
taught to the dieetplee of their (minders. Among the earliest
founders of schools of Medicine, was Hippocrates, in the
Mk century beftwe Christ. From the pains-taking and
indefatigable character of the man, his education and his
Opportunities, it may easily be gathered, that his school
embraced all the wisdom of the age in-Which he lived; and
both entitles the founder himself, to the NV/MO of the
Antiquary, and his doctrines to the respect of the modern
disciple of medicine. And It is worthy of note, in passing,
that Hippocrates was essentially a Homeopathist. Both
in theory and practice, almost an exact prototype of the
present Homeopathic system of medicine. I will mention
One or two particulars. Be dealt in vegetal" lemedtamente
only. He enjoined the most rigid dietetic discipline upon
his patiente ; he carefully etudied symptoms, investigated
ancestral disorders, and the probapility of the Inheritance
of every disease. He closely watched Nature, and care
fully observed her mode of cure, and aimed at imitating
her in hie practice. Ho visited all the moat celebrated
schools of Athens, Thrace, Themaly, &c., and there saw
and beard and digested tit that was to be seen, heard and
digested, that could serve him in the practice of healing.
He gave very little medicine, choosing often to rely on the
careful regimen of the patient, iris food, air, clothing, exer
cise, sleeping and general tionial habits rather than on me
diate., for a mare- Fleetly he nought IMP spee(fia Teta&
dies, which forme the sine qua non of the limeetitiathites
system. The system of Hippocrates was distinguished,
moreover, by its excitudon of all mere *peculat on, and
its Mose adherence to experience and °beer:ldiom
Bat two etietartee later, saw the splendid scheme of the
" rathpr of medicine,• dishonored and forgotten! It hid
become blended with tee Platonic speculations, to such a
degree, that by the time It reached the schools of Alexan
dria, Mtn lt. C., it bad degenerated into a eystem of mere
epacalatiou; and upon Its nine there arose numerous anti-
Oudot schools end systems of medicine; among which
were the fichOole called the elethodic, the Empiric, the
Eclectic, the flydropathic and others, extending down to
the latter part of the first century of the Christian era.
By this Lime the science of Barbi:Me needed a reformer,
and a reformer was provided is Galen, who selected, or.
range 4 and aletematized the whole scheme of medicine,
and the result of whose Lahore was the Oalento omen', no
much defe;red to by many of our day. Both Galen's sys
tem and a patallal:one of the arabe,existed with few modi
fications till the middle ages. But when the tireek litera
ture came to be revived, the students of medicine, having
Immo to the writings of Hippocrates, soon revived many
of bin doctrines: and to this foot may be traced, in no
,melt suOamorio, the downfall of the Galante slalom, and
the establishment of that of Parapalens in the 16th rec
tory.
It is worthy of note here, that In all the learning of all ,
the schoubi and systems of medicine that had prevailed for
snore than two thousand years prior to the 16th century,
the b•frettlalion of the blood was nut dreamt of. Hence we
god practitioners of those schools no unscrupulous in the
depletion of their patients. Notice, for illustration , a few
of the celebrated Bleeders! Hippocrates rarely employed
this remedy, as he referred those mires for which others
resorted to it, to Nature; (another evidence of his Homeo
pathic teadenciee). But hleveliag bad got the run, and
bleeding was to have its day, anti so lt continued the pre.
calling idea, often reducing the patients to utter helpless
ness by the lose of blood. Its leading advocates and ex•
ampler% In these ages were Aseleplades, Ciaero's phyeiclan,
Wens, Aretaeus and Galen. This latter Philosopher be
lieved the true cause of many diseases, to be a redundancy
of bleed ! Mind yen, he linear nothing of the circulation of
the blood nor of Its functions 1 Whence he derived the
idea of the redundancy of thin vital field, it le difficult to
imagine. But bleeding ;pulsed no study of symptoms;
no regimen, no thought, no intellectual toil, nothing bat
the lancet,and it was qulckly done and meetly ea:heal,
and so patients most bleed 1
Ent as the Roman Empire domed and tell,theltain
or Galen deeayed and went down with it; and Paraealate.
a German, in the 18th century, discarded bleeding and In
stituted new and more wholesome doctrines. It may be
said that Paracelarts, and Relmont, less than half a cau
tery later, drove the bleeding idea out of the legitimate
rokiniont and thereupon It hand WI My/UM 111 the hasda
' 4 Surgeons and Berbera, where it bee remained to thin
day. all that, what might be moat reasonably expected, ix
the fact, that, since the discovery of the circulation of the
blood by Harvey, in 1015-11 s reactions have been mach
investigated and Ito precious character better understood,
and hence bleeding, as a common remedial agent, is quite
discarded by all Inlelligeut phyclelane. But nay article
will be too lung. I Will follow It With another. K.
