tW A llAi.r SneBT. In consequence of
t wo of our hand having enlisted and left for
tlio army, wo are necessarily compelled to
restrict our Issue, this week, to a half sheet.
This is a circumstance that rarely occurs in
this office, bat the fntc of Wnr is, perhaps, j
harder on ncwupnper publishers, thnn any
other class ; and yet there are none who
sustain its vigorous prosecution, more cheer- j
fully, thnn the loynl Press.
rS" JcsTiriCATlON or Ttm Hkiibi.i.iox, I
If any one should hnvo nny doubts that
we Imve, amongst us, men who arc justly
entitled to tho appellation of Secessionists,
we would ask them to read scvcrtil lead
ing editorial articles of the Sclinsgrove
"Times," for several weeks past. Tho
writer, who is evidently one of the "Knights
of the Golden Circle," Dot only belies his
tory, and perverts facts, for the purpose of
screening the rebejs and denouncing the
North, but boldly justifies such accursed
traitors as Jeff Davis, Floyd, Ysney, Mason,
8 Udell, and others, in making war upon tho
Union and Government, as the only alterna
tive left them against the aggressions of the
North. It wid bo an easy mnttcr to show
the absurdities of tho labored efforts of this
d cfendcr of traitors ; but tho statement of a
simple fact will be suflicicnt. Alexander
II. Stevens, Vice President of tho Sontlibrn
Confederacy, ono of tho ablest men in tho
South, in his speech in the Convention, in
Georgia, which adopted tho ordinance of
beccssion, said :
"Pause, I entreat you, and consider for a
moment what reasons vou enn L'ivc that will
even satisfy yourselves iu calmer moments
what rensons you cah give, to your lellow
suffercrsin the calamity that it w ill bring
upon lis t What reasons can you give to
me nations oi mo cartn to justity it I
They will bo the calm and deliberate judges
in the case ; and to what cause or one overt
act can you namo or point, on which to rest
the jslca of justification t Whnt right has
the North assailed I What interest of tho
(South has been invaded! What justice
has been denied ? and ikhat claim founded
in justice and right has becnwithheld I Can
either of you to-day namo ono goycrmcntal
act of wrong, deliberately and purposely
done by the government of Washington, of
which lio South has a right to complain I
I challenge the answer
"When we of the South demanded the
slave trade, or the importation of Africans
lor the cultivation of our lands, did they
not yield the right for twenty years?
When we asked a throe-fifths representation
in Concrrcss for our slaves, was it not grant
ed t When wc asked nnd demanded tho
return of any fumtivc from instice. or the
recovery of those persons owing labour or
allegiance, was it not incorporated in tho
Constitution, and again ratified and strength
ened in uie a ugitive Slave Law of 1830 1"
5Tho joint resolution, extending the
time for paying Government bounties to
to volunteers to the 1st of April, has been
approved by tho President. Tho orders re
quiring the draft to take place on tho 10th
inst., nre suspended, and a 'subsequent day
will be appointed in tiuio to uiako all neces
Bary preparations. This will give all sub

TIIK WAR I TIICUS! A.'
riQHTINO IN THE BUBURBS Off THB
REDEL CAPITAL.
Washington, March 8. The special cor
respondent of the New York lWJn reports
the following I
The much-talked-of raid by General Kll-p-itrick
has ended with failure as to the
main result Intended to be accomplished,
but with success In cutting the railroads be
tween Lee's army and liicumond, tho de
struction of much property, stores, tfce., and
the actual shelling of Richmond.
Starting on Sunday, nt8 A, M., from camp
with five thousand cavalry, picked from his
jwn and Generals Merrill's and Gregg's di
visions, he proceeded to tho Rapidnn, cross
ing at Ely' Ford. From thence the column
ni ii relied to Spottsylvnnia Court House,
which placo ho renched without encounter
ing nny of tho enemy.
From Spottpylvania Court House to tho
end of his during journey ho was more or
less harassed by the rebels, and frequently
found that his lines had fallen in very un
pleasant places. At tho place last named
the Command was divided into different
parties, who were to scour tho country, as
they proceeded toward a common centre,
Richmond.
Every road was to be carefully scouted,
that no concealed foes, even in small num
bers, should bo left behind, so as to concen
trate aud worry him.
The expedition was a warlike tour, where
in all the fun, chickens, turkeys, geese, hogs,
corn, oats, hay, horses, mules, negroes, gray
backs, whether made of flesh or paper, that
could bo had, were obtained. They carried
with them but two or three feeds each for
their horses, and about as many days' ra
tions for the men, tho General being deter
mined that for onco the celebrated order,
"subsist on the enemy s couutry, should bo
faithfully executed.
On Monday they renched the Virginia
i Central liuilroad, and toro up tlio Jtrack in
lour places, destroying property would ren
dcr the road useful.
At Frederick's Hall, on tho C?ntral Pail-
road, they came upon a court martial peace
fully holding .its sessions, and captured a
colonel, five captaius, and two lieutenants.
Gen. Lee bad passed over tho railroad, on
his army, but about an hour before our men
reached it.
As they passed though the country in the
most good-natured way, questioning ns to
whether any Yanks had been seen there
lately, the inhabitants could not believe that
it was Lincoln's cavalry who were paying
them a visit. Tho negroes generally were
delighted, and many, in tho presence of
tiieir owners, asked to bo allowed to go
along. A large number were thus gathered
together, who cheerfully trudged along with
the cavalry, delighted at gaiuiug their Irce-
uom.
Occasionally Union families wore encoun
tered, who gave valuable information, and
freely offered what they had to eat and drink.
Leaving Frederick's j lall on Monday, they
pushed on to Richmond a detachment of
five hundred, under Colonel Dahlgren, keep
ing well to the right in tho direction of
Louisa Court House, whilo General Kilpa
trick, with the main body, moved upon
Ashland, both parties scouring the country
thoroughly, nnd doing all possible diimage.
As tho forces nenred Richmond the two
maiu parties began concentrating. Col.
Dahlgren was to move down to the right of
Richmond, destroying nsmuch of the James
River Canal ns possible; then, taking tlio
river road, was to cross opposite and enter
the city from the south siilo, nnd attempt
the deliverance of tho prisoncrs'on llello
Isle. General Kilpatrick, with the main
unity, was to attack tlio city by tho lirooko
turnpike simultaneously, if possible, with
tho movement.
It was hoped to reach the city on Monday
night or early on the following morning,
when a partial if not total surprise could bo
effected. Two of those fatalities which
more than once during this war have snatch
ed success from the very grasp of those who,
by their valor and daring, have richly de
served the victor's crown, interposed to pre
vent the consummation of '.he bcbt-cnnccivcd
and most brilliant plans of tho whole war.
Colonel Dahlgren had taken a negro to
pilot bi:n to Richmond. Tho detachment
had rapidly moved across tho country, de
stroying barns, forage, and everything which
could possibly bo of service to the enemy.
Pushing on, so as to reach Richmond as
soon as possible, Col. Dahlgren discovered
that his negro guide had betrayed him, and
led him towards Goochland instead of -to
Richmond, nnd on Tuesday morning he
found himself miles in just the opposite di
rection from that which ho wished to take.
The negro was promptly hung for his
baseness. Exasperated by the treachery,
the men burned the barns aud out-buildings
of John A. Seddan, rebel Secretary of War,
and it is, perhaps, fortunate that the gentle
man himself was not present.
Retracing his steps, Colonel Dahlgren
marched down tho river road, destroying
tho Dover Flour Mills, and several private
flouring establishments and saw mills. His
force alio did considerable injury to the
James river canal, burning canal-boats, nnd
seriously damaging one or two locks. They
did not reach tho immediate vicinity of
Richmond till attornoon, when everybody
was on the alert, Kilpatrick having already
niado his attack. .
Colonel Dahlgren s detachment was divi
ded into several parties, for the accomplish
ment of different objects, keeping together,
however. One party attempted to cross tho
river, but were repulsed. A very sharp Audit
ensued, and, finding tho enemy in superior
numbers, aud confronting tliem on every
road, the force was compelled to fall back.
In attempting to cut their way out, Major
Cook, ot the !M New iork, with about one
hundred and fifty men, got separated from
the rest
The other detachments succeeded in re
joining General Kilpatrick, but nothing has
been beard of this one. The people on the
road and some of the prisoners aver that a
colonel, who bad but ono leg. whs captured
by the rebels. If so, it is feared he must
have been wounded. Strong hocs are en
tertained that, with his usual determination,
ho has cut his way through withat least purt
of his hundred aud fifty men.
Meanwhile, General Kilpatrick hail ad
vanced down tho llrooko turnpike from
Ashland, having torn up the lulls at that
point, destroying tho telegraph as he march
ed. At one station, however, an operator
succeeded in sending a ihvpatch to Rich
mond, announcing that the Yankees were
rominir. He wns a prisoner in less than lit
teeu minutes, but that short time put Rich
nuiud on the v ti'i, and It hut since bveu
ancertuined that about it doxru pieces were
put In a battery, aud new enlrrntlnucuts
thrown up whilu awuitlng bU arrival.
The troops reached the outer furtillcullons
early on TueiuUy inorulng. and, as the spires
and hou- of the city eaino In viuw, tUter
upon rlii-cr went up from our men.
Riding rapidly forward, the outer line of
works was entered. Tlio rebels, thou sur
rounded, threw down their arms, many of
tlo'iil suireuutrliig, aud other taking to
tie ir httU, A tlii lit ttitftt ruucd for the

That this was difficult to do became up- i-
parent, un every road the enemv pickets
confronted them, and a scries of niano'uvres
took place in which the enemy Were found
to boon the alert at every poiut. Niaht
coming on, Kilpatrick, with his accustomed
Buuucuy, uaueu ana inaae preparations to
camp. He had chosen ft place, however, too
near a rebel camp, and of this act he was
reminded by being shelled out of his posi
tlon ; so the command groped its Way on in
mo ciarancss ana gloom, lighting when
pressed too hard,- and with the tell tale
whistle of the locomotive now warning them
that troops wero Iwinc hurried Imck to Bot
tom imago iu tho hope of cutting off their
retreat.
On Monday General Butler received orders
:o send over a force to meet Gen. Kilpat
rick, Jnnd assist him, if uctesnnry. This
movement was part of General Kilpatrick's
plan as proposed. Had ho known of or
expected ft lorce at Isew Kent Court House
or at Bottom Bridge, he would not lime
turned awity from Richmond, but would
have entreated General Butler's forces to
fiidit for thd same plncc.
Two thousand infantry, under Colonel
Dunkin, 4th United States Colored Regi
ment, eight hundred cavalry under Colonel
rpear, lltu I'ennsylvania lavaliy, and Kei
llor's 1st Battery, the whole under command
of Colonel West, were ordered to New Kent
Court House, thero to le governed by cir
cumstances as to further movements. 1 ho
infantry nnd colored troops left Yorktown
on Monday afternoon, nnd reached NeV
Kent Court House alxxit noon the next day.
having made nn extraordinary march thro'
rain nnd mud.
The cavalry left Williamsburg ot Monday
night, and ' nrrived on Tuesday morning
about eight o'clock. On Tuesday afternoon
Colonel Spear took a portion of bis cavalry
force and proceeded to Tunstall's Station,
where tie destroyed a Hew steam saw-null
nnd its machinery, burned n freight car nnd
twenty thousand feet of lumber. Tuesday
night a portion of Kilpatrick's forco was
discovered, but not knowing 'whether they
wero rebels or not, preparations wero made
to give them a warm reception, on Wed
ncsday morning tho question was solved
mid ns the two columns of cavalry came in
on both sides of the colored brigade, drawn
up to receive them, thu mutual cheers were
deafening.
This incident is marked from the fact that
heretofore the Army of tho Potomac, and
particularly the cavalry have entertained a
marked Idislike to colored troops. After
resting a while, they resumed their march
down tho Peninsula. General Davis, who
led, bad several men shot by guerillas, nnd
General Kilpatrick nnd his attendants chased
a body of them, capturing a lieutenant nnd
two men. The force picked up on their way
ono ot tlio escaped prisoners, a Colonel Wat
son, or Watkins, of an Ohio recipient.
The troops went into camp a few miles
Iroml'ort Magruder, on Thursday night,
nnd yesterday were to move to Williams
burg, for thu purpono of procuring forage
nnd rations, nnd resting the command, This
raid has been one of the most during of the
war, nnd but for the two fatalities mention
ed, would have proved a complete success
The men and horses have borne the bard
marching remarkably well, the saddles not
being removed during the trip, and but
little sleep given to the men.
Over five hundred Prisoners wero taken
but from the nature ot the expedition it was
impossible io bring them in. 1 no casual
ties have not yet been ascertained. Colonel

to have been wounded. Too much pro i so
cannot bo awarded Lot. Dahlgren, nor too
much regret felt at his supposed capture.
Not fully recovered from tho loss of his
leg in the charge upon Hagcrstnwn, he vol
unteered his services to General Kilpatrick,
nnd .was assigned to the most important
command in the expedition. The greatest
consternation prevailed in Richmond during
the fighting, as well it miirht. Tho men
who have been batlled of their prey the
rebel capital feel that they would have
been gloriously successful if thu authorities
at Washington had permitted General But
ler to co-operate with them, and keep pic
kets of infantry deployed down the Penin

Gainesville Is on the Cedar Kevs and Frr.

stores, and as the residence of many wealthy
Rebels officers in the C. S. A. Army, noto
rious blockade-runners, &c. Gainesville
cast 600 votes In the last election of dele-
f atcs to the Charleston Secession Convention
t is about 75 miles miles from Jackson
ville. - .
Cnpt. Marshal received orders to advance
upou Gainesville with a picket force of 49
men from Companies G, H, and K of his
regiment, the 40th Massachusetts Mounted
Infantry. He skirmished all night, nnd
reached the place on Sunday morning Feb.
14, at 2 a. in., dashing past 113 rebel infan
try, and occupying the town. His flnt care
was to plseo sentries and pickrts to prevent
tho egress of tho inhabititants. All new
comers wero allowed to enter the place, and
wire closely qnestioned as to the existence
and number of the enemy in tho vicinity.
From a negro it was elicited that, their cav
alry were close Dy. A picket of two men
were surprised by the rebels and captured.
By this means, rebel messenger escaped,
and brought down upon Captain Marshall's
little force an attack from Dickinson's and
Chandier' cavalry. The neoro had given
Copt. Marshall only GO minute notice of the
impending onset. Instantly calling to his
aid the wining services or about 100 liberat
ed negro men, the Captain and his command
removed from the "Confederate" warehouse
167 bnlesof cotton, and barricaded the cross
road going through the town, adding to
his extemporized fortifications, "sectors or
wings," from point to point of his lines, to
shield the garrison from rear or flanking.
ine reoet cavalry were soon Heard thunder
ing down the mail. Capt. Marshall enjoin
ed his men to hold their fire until they
should bo close to tho breastworks. The
foremost horsemen wero near enough to leap
the petty obstructions of two cotton boles,
when a seven-fold volley was poured into
!..- C- 4l... D fl

Instantly wheeling, the relnils tried a flank
movement, when a terrible enfilading fire
reached them, every man of tbe Motional
lorces tiring seven shots at tbe astonished
troopers, A total rout was the result. The
frightened horses of the dismounted rebels
came vaulting over the cotton bales. The
groans of the wounded, left by their flying
comrades, mingled in hnrsli accord with the
shouts and cheers of the Union soldiers.
Had Captain Marshall's men been cavalry,
used to the salicr, they could have followed
- and killed or Captured the whole party. -
The loss of the rebels was over fortv.
Their force had been not much less, cer
tainly, tnnn tuu. iot ono ot our men was
hurt t
Leaving Gainesville, at 2 n. m. on Tues
day, 10th Feb., Capt. Marshall's command
rcnclfM Jacksonville by a force march by
noon on Wednesday. Their total loss was
1 wounded in skirmishing, 2 captured on
picket, aud 1 straggler. Important lufbrma
tion was obtained as to the strength nnd
resources of the enemy. Dickinson's cnval
ry (tho same thn captured 21 men.of the
10th Conn., at St. August in, a month since)
were defeated on their own soil. By the
admission of a wonnded man, found on the
field, one company of the rebels was so cut
up as to bo "ruined." The Secessionist wo
men i Gainesville generously applauded
the prowess of the Yankees, admitting that
they had "done well : whipped them hand
somely !" nnd stigmatized their own cavalry
as "cowards and poltroons."
Thirty-six negroes were brought away
from Gainesville. Of these 83 enlisted.
The storehouses of tlio rebel Commissaries
were thrown open to the people, nnd they
wero allowed to tako away at will green
coffee, mtgnr, rice, corn meal, and potatoes.
Much Union feeling was developed among
tno inhabitants of the town. They wore
surprised at tho kindness shown them, de
claring thut the Yankees treated them "lit
ter than the Secesh." One woman, finding
a soldier in her yard, readjusting a screw in
his rifle, adjured him to uiake husto and join
in the fight. Although a rebel, with her
husband in the traitor army.she took the
warmest interest in the fighting, evidently
for its own sake. There was at least $1,500
000 worth of rebel proierty in the place.
Nothing but some sets of Rebel harness for
artillery horses were destroyed. The fam
ishing people, assured of Federal protection,
were bidden to seizo and enjoy the property
of the pretended Government of the Con
federacy. Within two square miles wero at
least 2,000 bales-of cotton, mostly such ns
had been soiled by the Jeff. Davis usurpa
tion. Tbo progiainmc of the arctent Inva
sion la not to destroy property, but to
pacify and reasure tho inhabitants, and
make them cheerfully acquiescent in the
inevitable restoration of Fiords to the
Union, which bought, reclaimed from sava
ges, and protected the State and iu people
iroin loreign loes anu internal enemies.
But with this generous treatment, Capt.
Marshall did not uegloct to secure the safe
ty of his command by calling seriatim at
overy house iu Gainesville, instructing the
inhabitants that they must abide by martial
law during his stay ; must not leave tho
liuuc, uiu fcci ji wuuin noors niter dark,
and must refrain from offering iusulit to his
men. In return, he assured all women nnd
helpless people that they should not lie ilis
luruuu in person or property. A negro
insurrection in the neighborhood being ap
prehended, the proper means were taken to
secure all negroes coming into the town.
These were told that they were free, but'
their responsibilities aud duties of frcednien
were strongly insisted on, while their right
wc.crxpiainca ana conceded. Ho evil trom
emancipation resulted iu tho neighborhood
or town of Gainesville.
Instances of individual daring occurred
among the enlisted men, deserving of praise

A Wnr 1'iirIc in the M'lir.
A correspondent of tho Vironua (Wis.)
Times, gives the following interesting par
ticular or the eagle "Old Abe," of the 8th
Wisconsin regiment t '
Old Abe is an intelligent bird, and under
stands himself. When at liberty to go where
ho please, the sutler' tent i hi favorite
resort.- If any liv chicken are to be found,
he I sure to pounce on one, selling it with
one claw and hobbling off on the other with
tne am or ins wings, old Abe, we are sorry
to say, is quit a thief. There is one favor
ite dog in tho regiment with which the eagle
keeps on good term. They will both eat
together at the beginning of tho meal, bfft
toward tho close, as provisions get scarce,
tho eable will pitch into tbo dog nnd drive
him off. If a horce domes within reach, Mr.
Kaglu is sure to exhibit his tuperiority over
the quadiupndal creation by hopping on to
the nag and inserting Ins talons in no very
complimentary manner.
Old Abo mnuifests his appreciation of ora
tory in a very unique manner.
When a distinguished officer comes alone
nnd addresses the troops, ho loins with the
soldiers in their cheers. His method of
cheering is to rprcad his pinions to their ut
most extent, mid then jump up and down on
his perch. This modo of applause adopted
bythc engle is said to be very inspiring to
the orator.
When the regiment is engaged In battle,
Old Abe manifests the fiercest delight. At
such a time he will nlwnys bo ft und in his
appropriate plncc at the head of Company
D. To be seen in all his glory, ho should
be soen when the regiment is euvclopod in
the smoke of buttle. Then tho engle with
spread pinions, jumps np and down on his
H-rch, uttering such wild, fearful screams ns
an eagle alone can ulter. The fiercer, wild
er and louder the storm of battle, fiercer,
wilder and louder the scream of the eagle.
Twice Old Abe has been bit by secession
bullets ; one shot carried away the third part
of his tail feathers. He is a universal fa
vorite, and has leen carried with the regi
ment through seven States. Thousands
flock to see him, aud lie is fast becoming
famous.
When the war is over, this engle should
lie kept at the expense of the State, at the
Capitol in Madison, and the heroic warrior
who bore him safely through should lie pen
sioned by the State, nnd Ih- retained ns the
keeper of the cuglc. To this wc arc sua all
the people of the State will agree,

pondent of the Herald send thu following
despatch :
Three deserters came inside our lines yes
terday, who report that the rebel supplies
are entirely fxhnnsted, and the army is re
ceiving nothing from Richmond, owing trt
the destruction of the railroad, Largo de
tails nre made daily from the rebel army to
forage iu the country south of the Iiapiil.m,
und the greatest difficulty is experienced to
subsist the troops.
These deserters belonged to the 4$th Mis
sissippi regiment, in Kuell's corps. They
state that on Tuesday a report was rend to
their brigade, on dress parade, that Ilmlrr's
cavalry hud joined Kilpatrick at Hanover
Court House. The next day another report
was read to them that Kilpatrick had made
nn attack upon Richmond, but was repulsed
with a great loss in killed und wounded,
and over 1.200 prisoners, who bad already
arrived in Richmond.

HAiinisiiruo, Feb. 20. A bill was intro
duced into the House, this morning, to con-,
struct a new air-line railroad from New York
to Washington, using the north Pennsylva
nia Branch from Lansdale to DoUcstown
and the Chester Valley Ruilroml from Nor

from Somervillu on the New Jersey Central
to New Hope, where it crosses the Delaware
and proceed by way of Norristown and
Dowuingtown, to connect with the Pennsyl
vania Railroad for Pittsburg, with the pri
vilege of making a brunch from Downing
town to Glen Rock, on the Northern Central,
almut thirty miles nlxivc Baltimore, and thus
obtaining access to Washington. The cor
porators nre residents of New York, New

pal amendments proposed to tbe National
Currency act by tho Comptroller of the Cur
rency arc ns follows:
National Bunks nre to lie required to re
deem their circulating notes in the city of
New York nt a small discount. A uniform
rate of interest (seven per cent.) is to lie es
tablished throughout the United States, for
National Banks.
The lawful money reserve that is to be
kept on build is to be reduced from 25 to 13
per cent, for country bunks, und Irom 25 to
20 per cent, for city banks. Provision is
ulso made for the closing of banks whenever
the owners of two-thirds of thu capital stock
shall ili-ciu it expedient. Banks cannot be
organised with a less capital than f 100,000
in thu country, and $200,000 in cities.
It will le made imperative that an amount
of bonds equal to one-third of the cupitnl
stock paid up shall be kept on deposit with
the Treasurer of the United States, wether
banks lake circulation for them or uot.

An emancipation meeting wns held nt
Covington, Ky., on Thursday ovening of last
week. One of the speakers was J. R. Grant,
the father of Gen. Grant. Ho thought there
was no need of action. Slavery was dead
and it was best to let it alone.
A widow in Union, Maine, who has
twelve children, cloven of them boys, has
just sent th eleventh ton. into the army. On
the occasion of hi enlisting, some officer

she was sorry that her other child was not
a boy, so that she might make still auother
