THE BATTLE OF BULL RUN:
GEN. ROBIERT PATZIOIEION
The news which we gave yesterday of the
battle of Bull Run, was of a character to excite
the utmost anxiety and most intense excite
ment. Gen. M'Dowell had driven the enemy
from their position at Bull Run, and had pur
sued them three miles beyond, unmasking and
capturing their concealed batteries, and com
pletely defeating their entire force in that di
rection, when the insurgents were reinforced by
the arrival of Gen. Johnston's wing, which at
once turned the tide of battle. The rebel force,
with Johnston's addition, was too great to with
itand, and Gen. M'Dowell therefore fell back on
his entrenchments at Alexandria. The juncture
of Beauregard and Johnston was effected by a
movement on the part of the latter which com
pletely outwitted and hoodwinked Gen. Patter
son. We do not desire tn. hlamo Gan__ Patter
son In advance of an official explanation of his
neglect, or inability, or unwillingness to pre
vent this juncture, as he now stands in the
most critical and embarrassing position that
man ever occupied before a people whose hearts
and pride have been wounded by a disaster that
alike affects their personal affections and na
tional honor. Had (len. Patterson pursued and
engaged Gen. Johnston, to-day the stars and
stripes would have been floating over Tears , seas
Gap, and the occupation of Richmond become
nothing more than the result of the time it
would have required to effect a juncture with
the other columns of our army. The reason of
this is simply in the fact that the rebels them
helves are the most easily panicized of all the
other people in this country, and the consterna
tion which was infused into our ranks by the
confusion and dismay of a few drunken team
sters, would have been beaten into the rebels
themselves by the pursuing forces of Gen. M'-
Dowell.
From any point that we can possibly view
the result of the battle of Mall Rna , - -w. ore
forced to regard it as a disaster, and not a de
feat. Our trooys acted nobly, firmly and boldly,
until appearances became so conclusively against
them by the arrival of a fresh and animated
force from a quarter not expected, that they
could not withstand an encounter or a pursuit
with any show of success. And even in the
face of this disadvantage the line would not
have been broken had panic not been created
by the confusion of the teamsters. Altogether,
then, we cannot regard this battle as any more
than a disaster, superinduced by the conduct of ,
Gen. Patterson, and hastened to its conclusion
by the confusion produced by a party of derang
ed and frantic teamsters. The country will
demand an explanation at the hands of Gen.
Patterson, while the arms of the Union will be
promptly vindicated in another battle that must
speedily take place in the same locality. In
the meantime, the. veteran Scott will fully de
velop his grand plan of the defeat of the rebels
in Virginia. We have abiding faith in the .
valor of the men who compose the - army. They
are true as Steel, and as devoted as love, patriot
ism and religion can make them. Give them
time, with an open field and a fair fight, and
they will conquer all the rebels between Manas
sas Gap and the gates of hell.

The return of the men composing the second
and fifth Pennsylvania regiments has given rise
to many conjectures and speculations, since the
result of the battle of Bull Run, alike injurious
and unj net to the gallant men who compose those
two organizations. They did not anticipate a
tight. Many of the men were assured that a
fight would not occur in which it would be pos
idble for them to participate, for a considerable
length of time. With this view and assurance,
the men concluded to come home, where, after
seeing their friends, they would again enlist for
the war, organize under new auspices, as well
as more popular and efficient officers. In con
nection with these facts, there are other circum
stances which must not be held back from the
public, but which should go on the record now,
as part of the history of the disaster at Bull
Run. Gen. Patterson made but a lame appeal
'to the men of the second regiment, telling them,
in fact, that they had a right to go, that he
would be pleased if they would remain, but
that if he were In their position, he would ex
ercise the right they possessed and return home.
Gan. Pattersort even traveled out of the way
to inform these men that he did not affiliate
with or approve of the action of the admin a
*cation in.waging this conflict, and that he had
in contemplation a resolve himself to resign.
This assertion was repeated to ns substantially
in the same spirit by a dozen different perfectly
responsible men, who were in the ranks when
Gen. Patterson indulged in theezpreseloris, and
who could not be mistaken in their spirit or
meaning
We give this information to vindicate the
men of the second regiment, who are as gal
lant and aehrave a body of men as ever shoulder
ed a musket. They were notivilling, however,
to trust themselves in the hands of men thins

HAZING aI:STORY.
Every nation has a history to make before
it can be written, and in the manufacture of
that history the American people are now as busi
ly engaged as they were formerly intent on the
making of money, the achievement of social
and professional reputation and the building of
towns and cities. The nations of the old world,
who have assisted in making the history of
many centuries, were not imbued in their efforts
by that manly will and independence, which
give lustre and renown to the deeds of men
when struggling for noble purposes. Thus the
wars of the
, Macedonians, while they exhibited
the highest traits in the valor and prowess of
men, done nothing for mankind themselves, and
therefore it had been better for the world at that
age, had their ldstory never been made. The
same may be said of the bloody struggles of
Rome to extend the limits of her empire and
advance her victorious Eagles high above the
trailing baimers of her adversaries—andthe mine
may be written and expressed of most of the
wars which deluged Europe in blood or laid
the inhabited portions of Asia in ashes. They
made history, but it was a sanguinary record,
written in tears of widowed hearts and orphan
ed children. They made a fame to inflate the
pride of a few individuals and build up the
fortunes of certain exclusive families, while the
great mass of mankind were not benefitted by
victory, but seemed to suffer alike in depriva
tion and oppression, which ever way the tide of
battle surged or whatever banners were illumi
nated by the glory of triumph.
The history which the American people
are engaged in making is one of a positive and
definite character, that is designed, not only to
portray and preserve the evidence of their own
devotion to principle and claim to valor, but to
decide whether they are endowed with, the
power of soli-government. Generations to come
will read the history, which the young men of
the present are making, either with exultant
admiration, or they will not be permitted to
read the record by being debarred by the
tyrants, who will survive to interdict its pe
rused, and be permitted only to hear and repeat
it as it may be preserved in the legends and the
traditions of their oppressed firesides. This is
made true by the fact that we are battling for
all that is sacred to us as freemen. It is im
pressed upon us the mote forcibly that those
with whom we are now struggling are contend
ing for a change that will obliterate not only
the evidence of our own greatness as a people,
but destroy every vestige and right we now en
joy of civil arid religious liberty. This is the
true history of the rebellion. Those who main
tain that rebellion, are not battling that they
may escape the oppression of a tyrant or arrest
the' misgovernment of an usurper. They are
fighting for the contrary in every particular—
contending that they may change a government
in, which the rights of all are equal, for one of
fano ens kuKtinction, =which slavery shall be
an Integral principle, and icon. -d_higli.
lofty Democracy, degrade the people and really
governing classes to the control and the ser
vice of an arrogant arristooracy..
There is no mistaking such a history. There
is no mistaking the differences in the contest
which we are now waging—and there must alio
be no misapprehending the history we are writ
ing with the ram-rod and the point of the
bayonet. The record will be made up either
with a list in which the titles of men shall blaze
with glory 'and honorable renown, or it will
be a repetition of disgraces, in which their
names shall descend to slavery and death. The
struggle of Thermopylae was the- creation of
a history of valor—the contending hosts on
Waterloo, the history of one man's ambition
changed to exile, and a continent vindicated and
preserved from attacks on its aristocracy, But
the history which we are writing—the history
made lip by the deeds, the fortitude and devo
tion of every loyal man in , the army, will be
the record of his own undying fame, to be pre
served in - the future greatness, glory and pros
perity of his country. Those who have met
death, at the
,hands of the rebel force, under
whatever circumstances, and in any position,
will, alike be preserved, in that, History, their
memory embalmed by the gratitude dell future
generations, and their names become the theme
of praise for the virtuous and the good while
virtue and goodness last among mankind. As
we now bless the men who achieved our social
and political independence, so will the sons of
future centuries bless and revere those who
are now battling to preserve those sublime at
tributes. And thus will the history which the
heroes of the present are making be accepted
and glorified by the men of the future.
WHAT WAS EXPECTED
We stated a few days since, that orders had
been received here for the breaking up of all
the camps in Pennsylvania, and the pushing
forward of the troops to the city of Washington.
Those in - camp in the east were to have been
sent over the Philadelphia and Wilmington
road via Baltimore to Washington—while
those from the west and Harriaburg were to be
forwarded over the Northern Central - via the
same route also to Washington. Immediately
after this 'otder, another was issued from Wash
ington to concentrate all'the troops of the state
at this poiht and forward them to Hagerstown
and Cumberland for the purpose of proceeding
on the:line of operation occupied by Gen. Pat
terson, to sustain and reinforce him in case of
any necessity of attack or defence. The gov
ernment had anticipated that Gen. Patterson
would attack Gen. Johnston, and with his
vastly superior force, defeat the insurgent force,
march forward to Ball Run or Manassas, join
Gen. McDowell, and in the engagement of Sun
day last, assist in making the victory which
McDowell had achieved before the arrival of
Johnston, thorough and complete. But Gen.
Patterson failed to make these advance move-.
menta. He suffered Johnston to retire and
reach Bull Run in time to reinforce Beauregard
and his tredtor forces that were already defeat
ed, enabling them ; to rally and return on the
forces of

WHO TA RTS CARE OF THE VOL UN-
The ambition of man is a laudable character
istic of his nature, as long as it leads him into
paths of usefulness or the performance of real
deeds of noble bravery and unselfishness. It is
to be commended when he aspires to command
for the purpose of facilitating a success that
will finally result in dispensing great benefits to
all mankind. But when men aspire to place
and power and command merely to gratify am
bition, or purposely to accompliSh some selfish
object, they make themselves amenable to a
justice which indulges in short sentences and
prompt punishments. This` the case particii
larly with those who thrust themselyes forward
in a great crisis, anch'as the one is now
testing the valor and. the virtue of the Ameri
can people. Those who aspire toeonrmnd and
lead companies, regiments or briiades, volun-,
tarily assume a responsibility of the highest
and gravest importance; It isl_not merely the
duty of a Colonel to lead his regiment into a
fight, where, after the men have bared their bo
soms to the fire of the enemy,and-din-the midst
of carnage and death win a glorious victory,
he appropriates all the honor and receives the
largest share of the credit... Noris it alone the
duty of a captain and his lieutenants to marshal
and manceuvre a company of men, to drill them
irisquads, and make them, to all intents and
purposes, mere machines in their hands. The
officer owes somet,hing,mo n re,than thisp his
men—and the ollicerwho is a man will render
that something more to those under his corn
mend, asoonscientiously as he imagines he per
forms his other duties, or as ardently as he
seeks for fame and glory on the battle field)
And the Americappldier, will not, be satisfied
unless he is properly treated. He is not a hired
mercenary—a paid recruit, fighting because he
loVes blood or beeaug he' innate' *einploythent
and money. He'enterston'this struggle because
he has a country therm in danger, a home that
is Menaced with I derill•nction, and
. a nationality
threatened in which is invested all his social,
religious and politicatrights,
We want the officers in command ' of cOmpa
nies and regiments to'ponder these suggestions.
We want them to reflect and answer to them
selves, whether they are • using the power of
their position to promote the comfort, the
health and the usefulness of 'those under their
command: They will be made to answer to
the public on all these points. They will be
held responsible.by the men themselves, when
the hour of battle and danger has passed, and
when amid • the halcyon hours of victory and
peace all distinctions will be .obliteratect We
see in .the .men who are now here from the
service of their country in the sout,h, that they
are suffering from this neglect That they are
thrown too much on their own resources in a
strange country, which amounts almost to an
actual dependence on the hospitability of the
people themselves. The state or the nation do
not desire that the volunteer should be thus
— haver
amply for his comfort—and when he is neglect
ed, he.would be false to •hirecielf and recreant
to the cause he is pledged to sustain, if „he - did
not hurl his indignation against i those who are
the real authors and.cause of, his neglect.: Let
us be just to all while we are generous to a feW
men.
A Gum Imam of the actual result of. the
disaster at Bull Run teaches the people the ne
cessity of caution and discrimination in their
acceptance of the many-flying and exaggerated
reports both as to the movements of the'army
and the result of battle. It now appears that
instead of,three thousand as at first reported,
not over five hundred have been .killed
and wounded. This'-is • a vast difference al
though the .loss , of . fiv,,e hundred. !lava men is
too great a sacrifice to make without gaining
complete vistory. Altogether, the disastrous
calamity of Bull Run can be regaAedli
suit that will be atoned for in a very few days
—and it would . not be amiss, also, to take th 6
real result n 8 a lesson, hereafter patie ntly await developements beforeindulgingin useless

rebels at Newport News. With two others he
was in search of a stray bullock not far from
the camp. His body was pierced by half a
dozen bullets.
An infernal machine, intended by the Con
federates to blow up some ships of war, was
washed ashore in Hampton Roads this morning.
It is of an ingenuous construction. This is the
second attempt of the kind, and one of the
atrocious methods of warfare employed by the
high-minded chivalry. It landed within a few
rods of. Floyd's house.
The Roanoke steamed up the roads this
morning. She has been as far south as St. Au
gutithie. During her cruise she burned a con
federate vessel, supposed to have been a pri
vateer, the name of which she did not learn.
The crew escaped t, the shore in small boats.

leaving the Union men victorious. The loss of
the rebels was fourteen killed, including two
officers.- The Union men continued their march
crossing Grand river, but they were compelled
to leave three of their baggage wagons.on the

sickness at en average of ten days each in the ye er.—
This gives a total lose of 5240,000,00 a sum three times
as large es the whole cost of the General Government,
indcluding the Army, Navy, Pent offices, Lazio! dins,
Foreign Ministers ondoll. The amount weighs over all
hunred tons In pure gold.
A 'erg) proportion of this costly aufferirg might be
averted by attention to diet, cleanliness, anu above all,
by the proper use of the right remedy in Beason. When'
a 25 cent box of Ayer's Pits will avert an attaok of
nese which it would take several days to recovev- from,'
or a dollar bottle of Ayer's Barssparilla, will expel a
lurking disorder that would bring the sufferer to bit
back for weeks or months, does it take any figures to
show th gaol economy of the Investment/ When Fever
and Ague la rankling in your veins, and shaking your
life out of you, is it worth she dollar it costs tor 1115 Aous
Cuter to havo the Villainous disorder expelled, which it
does sure and quickly/ When you have taken a cold is
it prudent to wait until it is settled en'the lungs, when
days or WOMB or moutbe must bs spent In trying to
cure It, even If it can be cured at all, or M it che.per to
take Ayefe Cherry Pectoral, costing a few shollags, and
remove the trouble before It is serious? It takes no wis
dom to decide. .
