OF CEKTHE COUNTY.

DANIEL AGNEW,
AV BS CJUXTY.
EXTREMELY INDIGNANT.
Never were people so awfully indignant
as were our political friends nnd neighbors
of the Yallandigham nnd Breckinridge per
mansion, in this place, on the occasion of tlio
Arrival of a company of volunteers, who
linve lii'tn stationed here as a Provost guard.
They felt, or, at least, tried to feel, that they
lind been wonderfully humiliated . when
they reflected that the peace-loving citizens
of Northumberland county, had been hor
rified by the presence of soldiers with real
puns on their shoulders. And douhly so
when they found they put those ugly things,
called baronets, on their guns, and actually
carried with them ball and cartridge. To
think that Northumberland county should
be Insulted by the presence of a detachment
"Lincoln's hordes" as the rebels call them,
was entirely too much for their sensitive
nerves. And what was moot remarkable, is
the fact, that those strongest in their sym
pathies for Vallandighnm & Co., were the
most indignant, while the democrats of the
true Jackson stripe could sec nothing wrong.
To see their friends and fellow citizens in
uniform, prepared to enforce the laws, if
occasion should require it. was what Gen.
Jackson had both preached and practiced,
and was, therefore, right and proper in their
eyes, but it was not in accordance with the
"Let us alone" doctrine promulgated by one,
Jeff. Davis, and, thciefore, obnoxious to the
Breckinridge Democracy.
Our Breckinridge friends were won
derfully unwed to think that any display
of authority was necessary in this county
to enforce the draft. Though their organ,
the Democrat, had been busy in rendering
the draft odious, and inculcating opposition
to its entorcment, yet they never heard of
any one who intended any resistance. The
threats at Mt Curmel, to shoot any one who
would come to enrol or draft them, they
never heard of. nnd the threats of others in
nearer townships, to use their rifles in such
an event, was also new. Besides, they were
wholly ignorant that organizations existed
in several townships for the purpose of
resisting the draft, and that the '"Knights
of the Golden Circle" were particularly
busy against th.3 draft, was also astound
ing. It wus really surprising to find so
much they did'nt know. What they did'nt
know on this subject would have- filled
several numbers of that oracle of wisdom,
the Northumberland county Democrat.
We have always endeavored to respect
the feelings of our peace-loving friends, and
would do all in our power to assuage them,
when unduly excited, but in this case, we
fear, there is no help. We can only say to
them, to take it calmly, and not let it dis
turb their slumbers until they "get used to
it." Let them reflect that they have become
"used to" even those horrid jail walls, which
are intended to inspire terror in tho eyes of
every rogue who contemplates an infraction
of the laws. Let them remember those jail
walls bring no disgrace on good citizens and
honest men, and that, every patriotic citizen
and good Jackson Democrat, whoso con
science is void of offence, will never have
any renon to complain of the presence of
the soldiers of his count rv.
fcOur neighbor of the Gazette is opin
ion, that windy politicians, who can travel
over the country, making stump speeches in
the opeu air, abusing the administration in
its war policy, and otherwise aiding, not
our government, but that of Jeff. Davis, can
not justly claim exemption from tho draft
on account of physical disability. Of course
not. We hope our neighbor of the Gazette
has no reference to his valiant brother con
script, of the Breckinridge Democrat tt this
place. His fighting qualities ought not to
be doubted since the grand exhibition of his
courage in calling Gen. Butler a "brute,"
and approving of the assassination of a
member of the legislature, who should vote
against the party. Such evidences of cou
rage, patriotism and magnanimity, should
shield him from the slightest imputation of
cowardice. The Gazette also refers to "Cro
ton Oil Scrofula," which appears to be a
new disease in the medical vocabulary.
fJjTThe Union Convention of Snyder
county, recently nominated Peter Baldy. Jr..
of Danville, for Senator. The nomination,
which was quite unexpected, was declined
by Mr. Baldy, who is a true democrat, anil
who gives evidence of the fact by a rigorous
and heaity support of the government, in
the prosecution of the war. NV man who
fold his hands or attempts to embarr::s the
administration, in its efforts to put down
this rebellion, by side-issues and unwarrant
ed abuse, as is now practised by the Copper
heads, has any right to be called a democrat.
Mr. Baldy would make an honest and use
ful nu oiler, l it he is do politician, and
desires no office.
"How many of the "no compromise" men,
who have just been drafted, would now
agree to almost any compromise ? We ven
ture to say nine out of every ten. The war
is coming right home ! It hits where it was
expected never to strike. Gentlemen, there
is but one remedy now the ballot-box, and
the success of the democratic party. Take
our word fur it."
f27The above is from the Bclinsgrove
Timet, the Copperhead organ of Snyder
county. It show how little sincerity there
is in their professions of ling iu favor of the
"Union as it was and the Constitution as it
is." He that tinea not tee that they are a
miserable at of selfish and designing noli-
ticiaus, who have stolen the garb of demo-
cracy in onlcr to crt into office, can liav
very little discrimination,

COPrERIIEADB AND DEMOCRATS
THE) DIFFERENCE.
Since the leaders of the Democratic party
abandoned their places In that organization,
to conduct the present rebellion, that party
has been, and it now, controlled by their
abettors and apologists. Thctc leaders, and
their present followers, compose that class of
the Democracy fitly termed Copperheads.
Many good men, while nobly supporting the
Government, still claim to belong to that
party, although denied all voice in its coun
cils. These are true Democrats. Thus while
all Copperheads are professed Democrats,
all Democrats are not, of necessity, copper
heads ; and the importance of making this
distinction a matter of record, though it
may not be fully appreciated now, perhaps,
will hereafter serve to protect. loyal men
from unmerited dishonor and obloquy, when
the day of retribution comes.
Tho distinction between these two classes
of Democrats is clearly do fined, and readily
illustrated. The one yields his party pre
judices, and forgets its traditions, when
armed treason inaugurated by once-trusted
Democratic leaders aims a blow at the life
of the nation. The other basely abandons
his country in the hour of need, at the bid
ding of its foes. These hate treason, oecanse
it is to the last degree infamous; those, npo
logize for traitors, because they are Demo
crats. The high, mnnly aspiration of the
Government of his fathers; the grovelling
instinct of the Copperhead is the restoration
of a party, justly destroyed for its high
crimes against liberty and humanity, in aid
ing this infernal rebellion.
As foul examples of the copperhead, we
have Yallandigham, Seymour, Wood, Bu
chanan, Cox, Voorhees, Tierce, Toucey,
Richardson and Woodward; while Andy
Johnson, Hamilton of Texas, Dickenson
Stanton, Sickles, Dix, Hooker, Logan, Burn-
side, Butler, Bosecrans and Grant
are bril-
I
liant representatives of that other class, who
loving their country more than prty, scorn
to aflilliate with uny but those who are un
equivocal in their loyalty to the Union.
Coi.oiiEn Soi.riiF.ns. We learn now that
the press-gang of the rebel government has
been instructed to gather up all the light
comjilfxioned slaves in the Confederacy. This
we suppose, may be considered the entering
wedge, and we may look, of course, if the
war continues, to see a gradual deepening
of the shade, until we come down to the
lowest stratum, in the unadulterated chmij.
We like this idea of the measurement of
shades and colors hugely, because it is so
artistic and so suggestive. What n school
will it not open for the study of the chinro
omtrot Although it is settled law and
theology, too, in the Sunny South that the
largest possible infusion of the genuine Cau
casian fluid, is sullicient to purge or wash
out the llimitic taint and that a single
drop or two of the negro lymph, is so much
more potent than the generous Saxon, ns to
corrupt the circulation ot a heart full of the
other, it has never yet iicen decided, we j
think, precisely what complexion it requires
to entitle a man to be considered as the
dominant race, or to be allowed the privi
lege of owning or governing himself. The
talk about colored men is, in our view, n
little indefinite, with so ninny varijies of
complexion and race, as we can exhibit here
unless it is coupled with the new phraseolo
gy, "of African descent." which would, how
ever, exclude not only the Berbers, and the
Moors, nnd the Arab, but even the Dutch
men of the Cape. We doubt w hether even
Judge Taney has ever condescended to ex
plain how dark the individual must be, w ho
"has no rights that u white man is bound
to respect.' It is a question, however, which
returns upon us under the Southern Con
scription, and which it now behooves the
philosophers of Secession to solve, for their
own satisfaction, as well us ours. So long
as they insisted only upon the "African de
scent," we felt ourselves silenced. Ham set
tled that, of course, when ho settled Africa,
although Shem and Juphet trod closely on
his heels; and nobody would be silly or
heterodox in this enlightened age, as to
pretend that any thing but "a servant of
servants" could lie born afterwards, or rear
ed, on that continent "arid nurse," not of
lions as the Roman pott called it but
of slaves. When that point, however, is
surrendered, and the whole question is re
solved into one of color only we must in
sist on something definite. We have seen
so many slaves who were whiter than their
masters, that we begin to feel concerned for
the proprietors themselves, in case it should
come dow n to a question of complexion only.

Tni war of the rebellion has been san

hundred thousand were alive in 1 bi t, and
that the loss of the Allied Powers in the

for supplies and medicines. I have gathered
the following particulars regarding the
burning of that city by QnnntreH's band i -
The list of killail and wounded number
above 180, a majority of whom were killed
instrntly. The names connot all be given

From the ruins of the burned houses the
charred remains of other victims are being
taken. But one hotel is standing, O.uantn-11

ever, was shot.
Among the most prominent citizens, the
following are known to have been killed : ,

The above n nicd were killed instantly;
most of them in their houses, with their
wives and children dinning to them, w hile

very bitter against the commander of this
department and district for being so wholly
unprepared to meet such nil emergency.
The comu anding general was absent from

Kansas Citv, Aug. 25. Qiiantiell's force
reached the head waters af Grand riVer,
Cass county, about noon the day lifter the
burning of Laurence, and there divided
into siivads of forty anil fifty, and scattered
in various directions. Our troops weic half
an hour behind, and were divided, and
continued the pursuit. A detachment
ordered from Lexington nu t part of the
I'icbtl force near Pleasant Hill, and killed
seven, and recovered a considerable atnouut
of goods taken from Lawrence.
A report bus just readied here that Major
Plumb and Major Maclu-r overtook a com
pany in Lafayette, killing twenty. The
tola! killed, according to the last report,
is Utween sixty and seventy. Our t'ctach

It is asceitained that QuantrcU's whole

A delay of three or lour hour occurred

The working of the Bureau of Deserters,
I in the oflice of the Provost Marshal-General
has had u mo.st beneficial effect in reducing
desertion throughout all the armies of the
Union. Through the instrumentality of this
Biireiiu, two thoi:and deserters were arrested
the first tm i ii 1 1 1 it was in operation, lour
thousand the second, and hist month. July,
six thousand were arretted and returned to
duty with their regiments. The almost
certainty of arrest ami punishment through
the agency of the Provost Mar-hal-Geiirrar
Department, has become known throughout
the army, and has resulted in a decrease ol
seventy-live per cent, in the number of
descrliom', as appears by the returns fur
nished monthly to the provost Marshal
General, from regiments in the urniy.
The Bureau of Deserters is in charge of
Major Cliauneey Mclvet ver, anil is one of
the best regulated depaitmtiits in the service.

Among the deserters arrested, through
the agency ol the Bureau of Deserters, was
a man in Boston, who had enlisted iu a
Massac husets regiment, and after having
served some time deserted and returmd to
Boston, where he went into the business of
selling himself as a substitute with the
intention of deserting ut the first opportuni
ty, to sell himself to another person.
He succeeded in hiring as a substitute

fashionable hotels in Boston, dressed hand

us u substitute, he would dress in coarse,
rough clothes, uud disguise himself in such
u way that it was impossible to recognize
ti i ill as the gay and fashionable "swell" of
the first class how l only a few days lafore.
Me would probably have contiiued to play
this game, while the war hist.nl, but he
incautiously wrote a letter to a fellow
soldier in his old regiment, telling him w hat
glorious tiiees he was having in Boston,
representing iu glowing language his new
business of going as a substitute, told how
many times ho hud "fooled them," and
wound up by advising the soldier to desert
cud come home, and "coin money" by going
as a substitute. The soldier addressed had
no such intention, and he showed the letter
to his colonel, who forwarded it to the
Provost Marshal-General, at Washington,
who speedily caused the arrest of the
deserter substitute, aud he was forwarded
to his regiment a few day ago. He will,
iu ull probability, be shot."

Fulton, the agent of the Associated Tress .
Flao-biiip DiKtiionE,
' Tuesday morning Aug. 18.
The attack on Fort Sumter was commenc
ed at daybreak yesterday morning by the.
siege guns of Gen. Gilmore and the naval
battery on shore.
At six o'clock Admiral Dahlgrcii proceed
ed on board the Wechawken, and, with the
Ironsides nnd the entire Monitor fleet, at
tacked Forts Wagner and Gregg with great
fury, completely silencing Fort W'ugner and
almost silencing Fort Gregg.
The wooden gun-boats, seven in number,
also joined in tho assault, nnd enabled the
shore batteries to pur their shot and shell
into Sumter.
At 10 o'clock the Admiral changed his
flag to the Passaic, and w ith the Piitapsco
proceeded to within about 1400 yards of
Fort Sumter mid shelled the sea-wa.l with
the rifle guns of those vessels for about an
hour with marked effect. Sumter fired al
most fifty return shot, doing no damage to
the vessels, whilst the wall of Sumter was
badly scarred.
Fleet Captain Henry W. Bodgcrs took
command of his old vessel, the Monitor
Catskill, and went up into the light, going
within one hundred and fifty yards of the
beach-front of Fort Wagner. After firing a
number of shot, a shot from Wagner broke
loose it piece of the interior lining of the
pilot-house, which struck on the head of
Cominander itodger, instantly killing him,
as wen us t'av master N oodbury, who was
standing at. his side. Both of their heads
were split open. These were the only per
son injured on hind or water during the
six hours' engagement.
The damage done to Fort Sumter by the
siege batteries of Gen, Gilinore is visible
without glasses. The rebels had erected a
false wall against the wall exposed to the
army batteries. It extended to within ten
feet of the top of the wall, was over forty
feet high, and ten feet thick. This wall is
now a mass of ruins, whilst the old wall is
bored full of deep holes, the parapet crushed
and ragged, and the northwest corner gasn
ed and cracked down almost to the water's
edge.
The harbor and Stono river are filled with
torpedoes, about a dozen of which have
been picked tip ill Stono, auel one was ex
ploded under the Patapsco, raising her a
foot out of water, but doing no harm to the
vessel.
None of the vessels were injured the least,
and the Admiral ami his otheers ate confi
dent in the ability of tho monitors to butter
down Slimier. The Admiral is anxious,
however, to save the vessels for the heavy
work riMjuired of them after Sumter is taken
and to let tl.e anny reduce Fort Sunder, it
possible.
The licit, except tile Wechawken nnd
Naluint, all retired before I wo o'clock, but
they remained to keep Wagner silent during
the afternoon, and to prevent the remount
ing of the guns.
I The shore batteries continued firing all
the afternoon and night on the walls of
Sumter with good effect.
This morning the weather is cool and
dear, and the batteries steadily at work.
The Wechawken and Passaic are keeping
Forts Wagner ami Gregg silent, and up to
noon, when the Arkansas sailed, the remain
der of the licet were lying ut their moor
ings. The bodies of Captain Bodgcrs and Pay
master Woodbury have been embalmed, uud
will go North on the Arkansas.
General Gilinore unnom.ces that the work
thus far has been entirely satisfactory ; that
the fort is badly damag..-!, nud thu work
progressing finely.
Admiral Dalilgren is much depressed by
j (u. ,,-
I inn loss ot ins licet captain, nut is nigniy
gratified with the operations of the fleet
and army, and very hopeful of ultimate sirc-
cess.
I'p to the moment of the sailing of the
I Arkansas, at noon, the siege guns have been
Inn ling about five :hcll per minute, eluring
the punning, at Fort Sumter, with marked
elicit.
Two of the monitors, the Ironsides, and
some of the gunboats, arc shelling Forts
Wagner and Gregg.

The following letter has been received
from Mr. C. C. Fulton, editor of the Balti
more American : Ot'K Cil.un.Esro.N, Friday
Noon. August 2;J. Fort Suinler still flies
tho rebel llag, but its west wall is n mass ol
ruins. Our shells go into the Fort and ex
plode inside, some passing through the east
wall, going in one side and coining out ol
tho other.
An easterly storm prevailed on Tuesday
and Wednesday, but broke it way on Thtirs
day. We now have linii weather, ami it is
expected that the Monitors will go in force
to Sumter this afternoon.
The new Ironsides and our wooden ves
sels have shelled Forts Wagner and Gregg
every day keeping them quiet, while the
shore batteries ale hammering Fort Sum
ter. Seven North Carolina deserters from Sul
livan's Island were picked up in a boat last
night by the Moiitaiik. They say that the
rebels were preparing to abandon Sumter,
and blow it up that they have been taking
guns out of her ever since the attack in
Apnl, which demonstrated their inability
to hold it that there ure not more than six
or eight guns now in the Fort, tin? remaind
er being IJuackers ; that the cordon of beer
barrels was merely intended to sustain the
telegraph line between Sumter and Moultrie
and form no part of the obstructions of the
hilt bur. That the North Carolina troops
ure anxious to go home, and are almost in a
state of mutiny. Thai the rebels ull antici
pate the fall of Charleston. That the wall1
of Sumter were extensively breached in
A pi il, and that them is it great scan ity of
provisions among the rebels. The flag of
Fort Sumter lrt be-n shot away four limes,
and now there is no llag up.
The rebel batteries on .lames Island throw
shell .'light ami day into our lines, bid do
not cause more liian one or two casualties

Admiral Dahlgi'en ii anxious to h t the
army and naval batteries finish Sumter, as
he expects to have plenty of work for the
Monitors in taking tue interior line U' de
fences of Charleston.
A Hug of truce was sent to Fort Wagner
on Friday morning, ami the tiring ceased
during the interview, when it was resumed
again.
General Gilmore notified Beauregard that
he would coiuiik-i'.iv to shell Ihe city williin
loity-eight hours, and nqtisted him to le
