flcniuice, the infamous, has piil li -hed i book
entitled "The Cruise of the Alabama find
the Btinipter," from Lis private journals. A
notice of it, for the London A nthcaitm, which
hitherto bestowed its fjmpnthy ttpen the
retain, alters itd note in this article. It de
nies the OBsibility oF making ft creditable
fctory of rctntnes1 etiretr. It denies that liie
conduct has bceu tliat it a gentlcmnn, far
ks uf n litro. It eliows him to be cowardly
pTiuttlinp, lying liruggadocio. It exhibit
him om "u rebel iu bis own city, a deserter
from the f crvlce, a traitor to lilB country."
It denies, on personal knowledge, bis asser
tion that the Kearsarge bad any armor;
"over a part of her (tide hang a few common
chain cables, affording her engines ft slight
protection, not much more than a man would
find in action from having hung a dozen
watch chains round his neck." It shows
how, in the action off Cherbourg, the Ala
bama really was "slightly superior to her
rival, having one gun more in battery.'' It
denies that Scmmca could have become a
rebel out of patriotism, and asks "Can it be
an insane hatred of the negro race, as such,
and a monstrous desire to found a ticw
Slave Empire!" Such a criminal scheme,
it allirms, would "put the men who enter
tained it out of the pale of social laws."'
JjT'AinfrisTK'E. Senator AVilsou finds it
necessary to deny reports circulated by the
enemies of the Government, to tho eifect
that Mr. Lincoln and his friends are endea
voring to prepare the country for an nnnis
ticc. His remarks are useful lu sealing the
condemnation of the pitiful story lately
trumped up by the Xcw York WvrlJ. lie
says :
"Xo public man, connected with the Ad
ministration, is in favor of an armistice.
personally know that President Lincoln and
all the members ot his Cabinet have uudoub
ted faith in the success of our armies, and
the complete triumph of our cause. With
this belief they will pursue tho most vigor
ous measures to raise money anil men to
carry on ttie war.
XIic Ncvcii-'rWirtU-MW ltntnrcthry!
We trust that a large portion of our read
ers have pondered ihc Appeal of Mr. Fes-
senden, our new Secretary of the Treasury
The purport of it is that the People of the
Linteu Mates acting as a body through
their agent the Government, wish individu
als to lend them two hundred millions ol
dollars for three years, at seven and three
tenths per cent, annual interest, payable
every six months. For this they offer Trea
sury Notes that is, in reality, notes drawn
and endorsed by every man in the country.
The loan is wanted lor a. great national pur
pose, to effect which every limn, unless he
be a traitor at heart if uot in act, is solemnly
pledged.
The appeal is addressed not merely to a
few great capitalists, but also to the "many
whoso aggregate means constitute the mass
of the welth of the land. The notes upon
which this loan is asked are from $.)0 up
ward. Every man who lir s fifty dollars can
take part in this loan. Apart form patrio
tism and the duty which all owe to their
country, no investment is so desirable as
this.
It is eccure. Every dollar" of every man's
property is pledged iur the punctual pay
ment of the interest, and of the debt when
due. The security is increasing in value.
For some years before the war we were
earning 10U0 millions a year more than we
spent. During the three years of the war,
owing to the high prices and constant de
mand for labor, we have earned more than
ever before. No man who could or would
work has been idle; and, except for the war,
we have spent less than before. The total
valuation of the property of the United States
according to the cciimis oflsili), was fclli,
13it,tl00.U00, of which 10,907.-1-18.050, was
in the Loyal Slates. This valuation, ac
cording to the usual rule of assessment, was
not more than two-thirds of the actual cash
value of the property. The increase of
property in the Loyal States during the
last ten years was over 120 per Cent., or an
average of 11 C-10 per cent, per annum. In
three years of the war we of the United
States have certainly earned ijyuo millions
more than we have spent apart from the
war may be fct down at i.'000 millions.
Deducting this from our net earning, the
peopie. who are security lor tins loan are
ldUU million richer to-day than wo were
when the war broke out.
No other investment can be so easily con
vertible. The man who has a Treasure
note for $.10, or 100, or $1000, can turn it
into money more, readily, and upon better
terms, than if it were invested upon bond
and mortgage, or in railroad stocks.
The interest offered is higher than can be
realized from any other sale and convertible
investment. Ii is, moreover, readily col
lectable w hen due. To each note tire af
lixed five "coupons," or ii.len.it tieidn, due
at the expiration of each successive half
year. The holder of note has simply to
cut off one of these coupons, present it at
the uearit bank or Government Agency,
and receive his intcrc.t; the note itself need
not be presi nted at all. Or a coupon thus
payable w ill every w here be equivalent, w hen
line, to In. tin y.
Thus, while this loan presents great ad
vaiitaes to large capitali-1s, it oilers spe
cial hiduci incut to those who wish to make
a sal'.; and protitable investment of small
saving. Jt is in every way the best Savings'
Jiank; for in ry institution of this kind
must somehow invest its drpo.-its proiitaby
in order to pay interest and expenses.
They will invest largely in this loan, as the
last investment. J!ut from the gross inter
est which they receive they must deduct
largely f. r the expenses of the liaiik. Their
Us'.iid rate ol interest allowed to denositors
is j pi r ten!, upon sums over f luo. The
, person u !io invests dirictly w ilh Goveeru
I ineiit will uccive almost .10 per cent. more.

John A. Spooner. t'w., Agent lor the Common-
uealth of Miictachuct't, A'uthviUe, Ttnn!
Biu Yours from CUnttanooga, July 28,
Is received, notifying me of your nppoint
ment by your State as Lieutenant Colonel
und Provost Marshal of Georgia, Alabama
and Mississippi, under the act of Congress,
approved July 4, 1B03, to recruit volunteers
to bo credited to the States respectively.
On applying to General .Ycbster at Nash
ville, he will grant you a pass through our
lines to those States, and as I have had
considerable cxperianco in those States,
would suggest recuiting depots to bo es
tablished at Macon audi Columbus, Miss.,
Selmn. Montcomerv and Mobile. Alabama,
Columbus, Milledgovillo and Savannah,
Georgia.
I do not sec that the law restricts you to
black recruits; but you are at liberty to col
lect w hite recruits also. It is a waste of
timo and money to open rendezvous in
Northwest Georgia; for 1 assuiia you that I
have uot seen an able bodied man, black or
white, there, lit for a soldier, w ho was uot
in our army or the one opposed to it.
You speak of the impression going
abroad that 1 nm opposed to the organiza
tion of colored regiments.
My opinions arc usually very positive,
and there is no reason why you should not
know them.
Though entertaining profound reverence
for our Congress, I do doubt their wLsdom
in the passage of this law :
1. Because civiliau agents about an army
are a nuisance.
2. The duty of citizens to fight for their
country is too sacred a one to be peddled oil'
by buying up tjie refuse of other States.
3. It is unjust to the brave soldiers and
volunteers who are lighting, ns those who
compose this army do, to place them on 'a
pair with the class of recruits you are after.
4. The negro is a transition state, and is
not the c.pial of a white man.
5. Iln is liberated from his bondage by
act of war, and the armies in tho field are
entitled to all his assistance in labor and
lighting in addition to the proper cjuotas of
the State.
0. This bidding and bartering for recruits,
white and black, has delayed the reinforce
ments of our armies at the time when such
reinforcements would have enabled us to
make our successes permanent.
7. The law is an experiment which, pen
ding war, is unwise and unsafe, and has de
layeij the universal draft which I believe
has become necessary to overcome the wide
spread resistence olfered us ; and I aiso be
lieve the universal draft will be wise and
beneficial : for under the providence of God,
it wili sepera'.e the sheep from the goats,
and demonstrate what citizens will fight for
their country, and what will only talk. .
No one will infer from this that I am not
a friend of the negro as well as of the white
race. I conteiul that the treason and re
bellion of tho master freed the slave, and
the armies 1 have commanded have con
ducted to safe points more negroes than
those of any general ollicer in the army;
but I prefer negroes for pioneers, teamsters,
cooks and servants, others gradually to ex
periment in the art of a soldier, beginning
w ith the duties of local garrisons, such as
we had at Memphis, icksburg, Natchez,
Nashville and Chattanooga ; but I would
not draw on the poor race for too large a
proportion of its active, athletic young men,
for some must remain to seek new homes
and provide lor the old and young, the fee
ble and helpless.
These are some of my notions ; but I as
sure you they are shared by a large piopor
lion of our lighting men.
You may show this to the agents of the
other States in the same business with your
self. I nm, etc..

Washington, Aug. 20. The following
was received here to-night, dated Head
quarters Army of the Potomac, August If,
evening :
This morning, at four o'clock, the Fifth
Corps started on an expedition to cut the
Weldou railroad at Kcam's Station, taking
four days' rations with them. This corps
was withdrawn from the left front some
days ago, and have been in reserve ever
since.
They reached the railroad about 7 o'clock
and the First Division being in advance had
a skirmish with a force of the enemy sta
tioned there to protect the road. They fell
back rapidly, however, and the loss on either
side was light. After placing the troops in
line to meet any attack which might be
made, the work of tearing up the track w as
commenced and prosecuted with vigor for
several hours, but about noon they were in
tcirupted ut their labor by the appearance
of a force of t!:e enemy, w ho were advanc
ing along tho railroad from Petersburg in
iinc of battle.
Thcypiovcdto be Hill's Corps, which
had been lying in reserve lor tile past few
days, und who were advanced at double
quick as soon as they became aware of our
intention and iiioveuieuls. The Second Di
vision, General Ayrcs commanding, held the
udvanco on the railroad, the Third and
Fourth supporting on the right, while tho
First was placed to cover the left, aud pre
vent any surprise from that direction.
The attack on the Second Division was
very determined, but our men inet it in gal
lant style, driving the enemy back with hea
vy loss. After repeated attempts to force
our line, they finally, after about two hour'
hard lighting, g ive up the idea, and fell
back some distance, keeping up a tire all the
all. riio'iii from their batterie and skirui

have been captured. Four hundred will
cover our entire loss in this movement of
Thursday last. In the Second Division, the
Fifteenth New York sulfertd tho most se
verr.ly of any regiment in the corps. In this
division the Third Urigade suffered most
severely, the Second being next, 11ml tho
First the last. At il A. M. yesterday artil
lery tiring was renewed along the line of the
railroad. It is thought by many that a de
cisive battle is at hand near tho James,
Bo this as it may, General Grant will not
leavo the line of the Wcldon road tintil he
has pretty effectually destroyed it. The do
rt ruction of this road w ill embarrass both
Petersburg and Hichinond in point of sup
plies, and if Grant's occupation of this line
is only for a short period, it will be weeks
before the Kebels can put it in any kind of
repair. .
The colored troops of the Ninth Corps
have reinforced tho position of the Fifth,
and that position will be held until the de
struction of the railroad is thoroughly com
pleted. There is a lull in affairs ut Deep
Bottom, but such is the admirable position
of our troops, that the Tenth Corps w ill be
able to hold it against any force which Lee
can at present bring to bear against it.
No fears are entertained for liutler's posi
tion nt Bermuda Huudred, ns in addition to
fortifications, he has also thu advantage of
an enfilading tire from our gun-boats. It is
a subject of much speculation ns to what
will lie the result ol the new combinations
by Grant. Thus far they have had one good
effect to place Lee upon the offensive, and
if the Kebel force in the Shenandoah is not
about to suddenly appear in front of Rich
mond, there is reason to hope for brilliant
results from thu present condition of affairs
on tho James River.

Foiit Monhok, Aug. 23.
The mail steamer Yanderbelt arrived at
this port at 4.30 this afternoon from City
Point. She brings intelligence that the ene
my have been making a desperate effort to
re take the Weldou roa I, but have so far
been unsuccessful.
Our forces now hold the road firmly, and
have secured a position from which it is be
lieved the enemy cannot tlrivc them.
The enemy made three desperate charges
on our lines yesterday and were repulsed
each time with heavy loss to them. Our
loss was light, anil it is reported we captur
ed five hundred prisoners.

21st KvKMKfl, This morning the enemy
make a vigorous attack on the Fifth Corps
on tiic lett 01 the Weldou railroad, at the
same place where they were partially suc
cessful on Friday, but to-day they met with
a different reception.
Our line was formed abimt the same ns it
was on that day. The first division was on
the extreme left, connecting with the caval
ry which covered the railroad towards
Reims' station. The second division was
next. Cutler's fourth division across the
railrood, and the third, Crawford's division
on the right, joining with the Oth Corps,
which connected the right of the new line
with the left of the old one near Umj Jerusa
lem plank road.
During Saturday our men had strength
ened the breastworks which they had tem
porarily erected, besides throwing up others
111 echelon.
L'arly this morning very heavy cannonad
ing was opened by the enemy from their
worKS lurtlier ilown towards Petersburg,
and our guns replied vcrv briefly, neither
party, however, doing the other any partic
ular imurv.
About 7 a. m., a small force of the enemy
were seen moving as if to make an uttack
on the Uth Corps, but a few well directed
shell sent them out of sight rather quicker
than they had advanced.
They advanced in fine style and with the
utmost confidence, evidently thinking the
work before them was an eat one; but what
was their surprise on discovering a at rung
line behind and extending to the left of the
first, from which a row of bayonets glisten
ed, with a buttery on the left and another
on the right pouring a cross fire into their
ranks, almost every discharge causing huge
vacancies iu their lines.
Shortly after a strong column emerged
from the woods on the lelt of the Railroad
and forming in line, charged on what they
believed to bo our left llank, but which,
proved to be the left ol'Geti. Ayrcs' front
line.
As soon as they discovered the critical
position in which thcy were placed, the en
tire command made signs to indicate their
willingness to surrender and the order to
ceaso firing passed along the breastworks,
but ns soon as they broke and starded for
the woods, the remainder coming iu aud
surrendering themselves.
The batteries sent several messengers af
ter the retreating party, many of vv horn em
braced mother earth instead of reaching
their lines, and still remain where they fell
our guns covering the entire field" aud
preventing tho bodies from being carried
away.
The troops who made the attack consist
ed of Hokcs's Division and llushrod J0I111

The enemy will not give up their hopes of

The enemy early yesterday morning disap
peared from the front of the 5th and the Uth
Corps, on the Wcldon railroad, and it is be
lieved that the attemdt to regain possession
of this important line of communication has
been abandoned, and that the enemy are
fortifying their right flank to resist an attack
in this direction from our forces. They may,
however preparing to make a dash on our
lines in some other direction.
Occasional firing has been going on along
the centre and was quite lively during the
night.
This morning occasional shots are heard.
The roads continue w et, making travel very
dilliicult.
About thirty rebels were brought in during
the night, principally South Carolinians,
claiming to be deserters. This story is, how
ever, not believed, as the soldiers from that
State have fnmi-hed fewer deserters to our
side than any other State in the confederacy.
They are stroilv, hearty looking men an. I
seem to think the end of'lhe struggle is at
hand. They I elieve Petersburg to be al
most within our grap and will be in our
possession at an early day.
lff riK'liolt ol' a'oi'..
The most notable and serious modifica
tions ctl'ected by man's agency are tlro.-e
caused by the destruction of forests. The
cutting away of wood not only changes the
appearance of the landscape, and the cha
racter of the spot laid under the axe ; when
practised to n large extent, its cll'ects ex
tend to a great distance perhaps over the
whole continent, and almost revolutionize
climates, soils and surfaces.
The torest retards evaporation, and o'U:rs
an effectual barrier to the wind. Its porous
soil and still more porous accu.iuilauo i of
vegetable tbbru iihsrd and retain tue mois
ture, and its tangled masses of sticks and
roots restrain the fury of torrents, nu I pn
Acnt the devastation they might other i.-s
occasion. From these circumstances, it is
free from the extremes of summer and
winter temcrature ; it acts as a coiiatui.t
condenser ot moisture in the atmo-phere,
and piomotes frequent and copious shower.-.
When tile forests are taken away, tli.se
conservative elements go with them. The
order and character of the seasons are dis
turbed; they become more uncertain, tin:
line that divide them become less distinct
Noah Webster observed this fact iu Ami licit
even before the commencement of the pre
sent century, Said he. in 177!) : Wneu tiic
forest is gone, the great reservoir of mois
ture stored up in its vegatable u.oi.l is
evaporated, and returns only in delugis of
rain, to wash away the parched desi into
vv hich that mold has been converted. The
well-wooded and humid bids are turned to
ridges of dry lock, which encumbirs the
low grounds, and chokes the watcr-cour?cs
with its lUhiin, and except in couuiries
favoured with an equable distribution ol
rain throuoli the seasons, an I a moderated

the operations of causes set .u actiou by

desolation almost as complete us that ol the

we have no prospective control.'' j

llBAOqOARTKKS 1ST VAVAI.RT DIVISION,
Auk. 10th, 1804. General Turbert: There
was but little more lighting oftcr my dis
patch sent you at 7 P. M.
The 2d brigade did superbly. It captured
one hundred and forty horses. Twelve offi
cer were also taken. The 1st brigade also
did mngniGcently, capturing over fifty pris
oners and repulsing a heavy force of infantry,
killing and wounding a large number. Two
battle-flags were crptured, and the old divi
sion gave the boys a most magni Scent dress
ing. The Reserve brigade was not engaged.
The prisoners represent Kershaw'a division
of Longstreet's corps, and Botner's ana Wick
em's brigades of cavalry, both small bri
gades. The country was open and several
elegant mounted charges made.
The enemy tried to turn our left by wad
ing the river tip to their waists, but they
found us Inying for them and we corralled
them, shooting them down until they cried
for mercy. Over thirty of their dead, anil a
large number of their wounded lie in one
snot.
The enemy opened with splendid practice
from two batteries. I rejoice to say our
casualties are small for the amount of fight
ing done; sixty will cover my entire lo. I
never saw the couiinaud net better or do
more execution.
A rebel Colonel was killed and his body
is iu in onr hands. Two field officers were
captured. The prisoners report that they
came from Culpeper and have been march
ing hard. I sent the prisoners and our
wounded to Winchester to-night. Please
see to arrangements for the wounded. I
start at davlight in the morning.
