SITUATION.
A bleak, wet and dreary morning again
brought us the usual influx, of fugitives from
the camberland valley. Hundreds of horses
are being driven over the bridges of the Sus.
quehanna, followed by men, women and
dren, the defenceles3 inhabitants of the pith
berland valley. From the correspondent of
the New York Dodd, who was up the valley
some distance this morning, ire received the
following order, issued by Lieutenant General
R. I. Ewell.

From Behind a Mashed Battery.
A friend at our elbow,wirciliadjust finished,
reading a tirade against the loyal men of the
free States, in the shape of a letter from,Emer
son Ethridge, addressed to certain citizens of
Tennessee, gave us some curious information
this morning. Ethridge is at present clerk of
the national House of Representatives, mede
such by the friends of the National Administra
tion under the delusion that he was sincerary ,
attached to the . Union. But the, war of the
slave holders had scarcely taken place before:he
began.te show his symprithlint for slavery:.
refused to open his lips tenting that he would
be subj ,- ct, to personal loss were he to essay the
defence of the Government—and ever Since hint
done his bestto bring.roppech upon that Govt
ernment and its :uphulders.. But. the most
cations fact in connection) with these,effortion
the part of Etinidge, is that whiclu.fixes the
authorship of the 14ters: signed by him on one:
James S. Wallace. ." Ethridge is a mere blatant
spouter, and• while he makes great pretensioni,'
is really% man of no ability. WallaCe is akt.

save those which are directly attended with
blood, than the base ingratitude of men who
have been petted and fed by the Government
which they now seek to overthrow, And among
these ingrates such men as Ethridge and Wallace
stand pre-eminently blackened.
Honest John Ball.
The last work in which some of the honest,
neutral people of Et;land are engaged, is one
which we may regard as peculiar fitting for
E rglibir men. It is a noble busine ,, s, entirely,
and consists Of manufacturing large quantities
of counterfeit greenbacks and postage currency,
which ate sold to the sympathizers with trea
son, in the North, and the rebels themselves,
and used to assist in bringing on the general
bdnkruptcy of both sections. Some of this coun
terfeit trash has already found its .way into this
State, and we have seen specimens of. it in this
city, where it has been passed in exchange for
goods in our retail stores. If England can thus
aid in the ruin of tha American States, by en
couraging one portion of the American people
to cut the throats of the other, and by depreci
ating the currency of this Government with a
counterfeit circulation, it will be amply repaid.
Certain it Is, that _ England cares little which
section triumphs, so that the ruin and litter des
olation of both are secured—so that the pres
tige of the American name and nation is de
stroyed. Those who will live to see the fact of
what we write, will then learn to appreciate
honest John Bull !
Referring to this subject of the British man
ufacture of "greenbacks," the Bulletin says tha
it is well known that the rebels have no corn
punction of conscience on the latter store, there
,ore the infereoce is natural that they place
very little value on their, "greenbacks." Yet
United States notes are at a premium in Rich
mond and "Confederate" notes are at some
distance below par. Not only in Richmond,
bat in Salisbury, Athens, Columbus, Montgom
ery, Vicksburg, or wherever our soldiers have
been held as, prisoners, one United States
'Treasury note , never felled to secure three
rebel ones of a ' like denomination. There i s
every - reason to believe that the "green
thanks" which rebel soldiers circulate
,are counterfeits manufactured by our cousins—
our neutral cousins, across the water. Some
time ago an establishment in Pheffield, Eng
land, was discovered, where an excellent fao
filtrate of our treasury note was Manufactured,
and large numbers of them printed. The fact
was brought to the notice of the Government
by, our minister, or those acting under his
orders, when the authorities broke up the es
tablishment and proceeded against the ofbnders,
though we have never heard that they re
ceived any punishment therefor. Again, not
long since a package , of counterfeits, (probably
of the same ,issue) were seized in New York
by' the custom officiate. The vigilance of
'our authorities has not entirely prevented these
notes from being circulated in the north, but
it is thought that beyond .a few.thousands rifled
from the pockets of our dead soldiers, on the
battle field, those in rebel bands are imported
from England for the use of blockade runners
and rebel soldieis. This need surprise nobody
who takes the trouble to watch closely hew our
English . cousins are obseLving a strict neutrality.
It Is questionable whether they could give as
much aid and comfort to the rebels, if they
threw off the mask and at once' recognized
them, for fa that event they- weinld be tied
down by international-'laws, and their own
statutes. There would then be no difficulty—or
least, not so much—in preventing his. serene.
isei,exese
China, from receiving &many iron steamers
to smash up the little junks of the Taeping4i
besides such hamlet's 'toys of Whitworth
and Blakely guns. However, their privateers,
blockade runners,suns and clothing operations
are all honorable compared to the last act of
meanness—connterfeiting, t our Government
Treasury notes. We are,awnre that the British
Government does not do it, but only some bad
IndividualkOet it is thrldity of the 'crown offi

these forgers. There.caxi t he:Ar wins() for the
failurelo do this, except that secretly 'they do
not favor, us, but our enemies. Our people,
however, will remember all, these evidences of
friendshipi mad when this present War, ends
will take the fair opportunity to remind our
cousins that the score is yet unsettled.
All for the Lair.
A favorite theme with the leaders of the
Democratic party, is the pretended devotion of
their followers and themselves, to law and order.
They are the constitutional, the law abiding
people, if we believe all that is claimed. by these
demagogues; and yet they are`at present engaged
In the most violent attacks not only on the law,
but upon those who are sworn to execute it. In
,the face of the danger of invasion, with the
people of one section of the State frying in terror
from an .overwhelming foe, the Democracy. in

cal clique, he need not ue surprised that eu h
lawless deeds are perpetrated. These leadent
have for some time past - been proclaiming that
the present National Administration was
nothing but a "military despotism," and "that
any attempt to enforce or fasten such a form of
government upon us should be resisted by arms
unto death !" and that the Conscription act was
unconstitutional. Again, we see the advice
givt-n, that in case "some mousing Provost
Marshal should come about their premise-1 hunt
ing for a gun" they would "tell him politely
to go oft, end that if he did not, the quo would!"
In view of such advice, and such dec!arations,
is it any wonder that illiterate men will violate
law and commit crime? It is worthy of note,
and all well disposed citizens should remember
the fact that, in law, those who advise and en
courage wrong doing, are equally guilty with
those who commit the wrong.
A Confederate Spy Dialfing Union Speeche
in Ohio
D .übtless theft, are plenty of rebel spies in
every part of the country, but the difficulty of
communicating with the "confederacy" may
often render their activity fruitlesi. The New
York Evening Pott tells the following curious
story of one of these spies playing the part of
Union orator:
A young man from this city, traveling on
business a few weeks ago in Ohio, attended a
Union mass meeting held in one of the large
cities of that State, and among the speakers
recognized, in the most ardent of them all, an
Englishman who had formerly been his teacher
in one of the ward schools up-town. At the
cicse of the speech the young man approached
his former friend, ailing him by his old name.
The name was disclaimed by the Union orator,
and all acquaintance with the young man
denied. But the New Yorker could not be
ehakea off thus easily, and preseed his inquiries
until he succeeded in making himself feared, if
not recognized, by the Union speaker. The
latter finally winked to him ,to go, with him
from the ground, and asked him if he could.
keep a secret. • . • •
Upon his answering affimatively, the orator:
took the young man to his room at the hotel;
again exortedhis secrecy upon honor, and, first
taking, out a pistol to guard against surprise, as
well •as to frighten hie visitors acknowledged
himself to be a confederate spy in disguise,
showed his uniform, and also a cammissinn.as a
recruiting officer in the rebel service:.., :His
pressing business at the time of 'weeting his
former pppil was to carry dispatches to Canada
and Eggland, which mission he has probably
by this time safely succeeded in accomplishing.
Why he was not denounced:by, the person he
took into his confidence we .are not informed.

carrying his son upon his head, and
in various other attitudes, are
sidered the perfection of equestrian
skill, and have justly entitled him
to the distinction of " Champion of

We call the attention of all having relations
or friends in the army to the fact that "HOOF
LAND'S German Bitters" will cure nine-tenths
of the diseases induced , by expoauns and
privationg incident to camp life. In the 'Ltd,
published almost daily in the newspapers, on
the arrival of the sick, It will be noticed that
a very large propertion are suffering from debit
ty. Every case of that kind can be readily
cured by Ifoofland's German Bitters. Diseases
resulting from disorders of the digestive organs
are speedily removed. We have no hesitation
in stating that if these Bitters were freely used
among our soldiers, hundreds of- lives might
be saved that otherwise will be lost.
• We call particular attention to the following
remarkable and well authenticated'cure of one
of the nation's heroes, whose life, to use his
own language, "his been saved by the Bitters:'
Pu ompras,..August 23d, 1862.
Messrs. Jones & Evans :—Well, gentlemen,
your Hoothmd's German Bitters has saved my
life. There is no mistake irethis. It is vouch
ed for by numbers of my comrades, some of
whose names are appended, and who were fully
cognizant of all the circumstances of my case.
I am, and have been for the last four years, a
member of Sherman's celebrated battery, and
under the immediate command of Captain R.
B. Ayers. Through the exposure attendant
upon any. arduous duties, I was attacked in No
vember Ina with inflammation of the lungs,
and was far seventy-two days in the hospital.
This was followed by great debility, heighten , d
by an attack of d 3 sentezy. I was then mums
ed from the White House and sent to this city
on board the steamer State of Maine, from
which I landed on the 28th of June. Since
that timer have been about as low as any one
could be and still retain a spark of vitality.
For a week or more I was scarcely able to swal
low anything, and if I did force a morsel down,
it was immediately thrown up again.
Leonid not even keep a glue of water on my
stomach. Life could not last under these cir
cumstances ; and,, sixxedingly, the physicians
who hid been working faithfully, though an
successfully, to rescue me from the grasp of the
dread weber, fi tinkly +Adana they could do no
more for me and advised me to sees clergyman
and to make such disposition of my limited
funds as best salted me. An acquaintance who
visited me at the hospital, Mr. Frederick Stein-
Iron, of Sixth below Arch street, advised me,
as a forlorn_hope, to try your titters, and kind
ly procured a bottle. From the time I com
menced taking them the gloomy 'shadow of
death receded, and Tam now, thank God for it,
getting better: Though I have taken but two
bottles, I have gained ten pounds, and I feel
sangpine of being permitted to rejoin spy wife
and danghter, from whom I have heard nothing
for eighteen months; for,' gentlttmen,l , l am a
loyal Virginian, from the vicinity of Free'
Royal. To your invaluable Bitters I owe .. di . ,
vettaintrof life which has takea_the - . 1 o f
