DRATIIIO7 COL 143101 °AILERON:
In the midst of the congratulation and enthu
siasm created by the triumph of the federal
forces yesterday, during the battle of Bull's
Bun, the announcement of the death of Col.
James CaMeron, •of the New York Seventy
ninth Olighland) Regiment, cast a deep gloom
over the irity- of Harrisburg, and filled the
hearts of his friends and relatives here with
that poignant sorrow felt only when the gallant
and the brave are cut down while serving their
country and thelr race.
Col. , Cameron was a native of Pennsylvania,
the next oldest brother of the Secretary of War.
He was born, we believe, in Maytown, leneas
ter county, learned the printing business, and
studied law with Ex-President Buchanan in
Lancaster dty. In the profession of the law, he
had but little taste or inclination for its dull
routineof business, but was particularly brilliant
and powerful as a journalist, in which capacity,
had he directed the energies that he after
wards brought to bear in positions where it was
not possible for him to gain distinction, no man
in this country could have boasted a fairer repu
tation than that which James Cameron might
have achieved with his pen. During Governor
porter's admin istration, Col. Cameron was ap
pointed superintendent of motive power• on the
Philadelphia and Columbia railroad, and after
serving in that position for several years, he
retired to a farm in Northumberland county.
There he lived and enjoyed the confidence and
respect of his neighbors, both for the integrity
of his purpose and the hospitality and gener
osity of his character. When the war of rebel
lion was inugurated, he left the retraet of his
home, Wiens his country, and was chosen al
most unanimously as the Colonel of the New
York Seventy-ninth regiment.
The blow or the bullet which dealt death to
Col. Cameron, deprived the country of one who
adored its glory and was devoted to its pros
pert, and perpetuity. Re was an American in
all his impulses—while all his impulses were
frank, brave and independent. Those who
knew him best, will not refuse to yield to his
memory this just mead of praise ; and even
those who were the least acquainted with the
man, will admit that in James Cameron there
were mingled those qualifications of head and
heart which are essential in the character of. a
gentleman and a soldier.
THEY WON'T BURREND.E.I?
The accounts which occasionally reach us
from private sources in the south, and which
we glean in conversation with those who are
either directly from, or sympathize with the
bels, are sometimes calculated to lead us to
e belief that the south will never surrender—
at the rebels who are now in arms will never
Id, but, fighting from trench to trench, and
et of one ditch into another, they will drug
until t h e last man has been left to offer his
life an unholy sacrifice to a still more unholy
cause. This is part of the braggadociathat has
distinguished the leaders of southern faction
and society, ever since they stopped to catch
their breath at the Bladensburg races, and is
repeated now as they recover from each of the
ignoble retreats they are daily making before
the advancing columns of the federal forces.
But suppose it is true, and admit that the reb
els are determined to fight unto the death, it
neither alters the merits of the contest, or in
vests the traitors with any peculiar merit them
selves. Because they are determined is no rea
son that they are right. It is no evidence that
their cause is el k just one if they persist in their
array of hostility to the government. The con
trary in both cases, has been the result of the
deliberation of the world, and the longer and
more persistently the rebels resist the efforts of
the government to restore the peace of the
country, the more odious they become in the
sight of the world, and the more amenable
they make themselves to the stern demands
and retributions of justice.
That the men who are engaged as leaders in
this rebellion will-fight unto the bitter end, or
that they will never again yield their allegiance
to the government they have insulted, we have
no doubt. They are eternally damned. They can
never elintin assume or invest themselves with the dig
nity and ropectalnlity of American citizens, and
therefore of course are determined to contest
the hut refuge of treason with the advance of
th e keys %Of justice, and die in a trench or a
ditch,Vihey cannot escape as vagabonds to
roam* mirth ! rather than yield, to be pun
ished co, iiii galichre as their crimes deserve.--
In either sue the country will be benefitted by
the result. If these desperate men contend
until they are at length conquered and slaugh
tered, the country will be the gainer. If they
are captured and hung, the country again 'will
be benefitted. But if they escape, they go to
infect other lands with their lunacy, and poet
pone the doom that is soon to be their end in
any clime:
The-masses of the south, those who have no
interest in the institution of slavery, and who
have been forced into this rebellion by mob
Violence, are not so anxious to prolong the eon.:
tan from ditch to ditch / nor have they yet
went their willingness,* die facing the fire
of the federal troops, The people of the 'oath
whohave not been !breed have been deluded
into this 4ibt, so that: whatever may be the

continue in a cause that must be disastrous to
them under any circumstances. Those who
have been forced into, will desert the rebel
rankswhen an opportunity is afforded. Those
who have been deluded, are daily being inform
ed, that the object of the movement of the
government is not to oppress, to disgrace or
destroy them or their interests, and learning
these truths, the course they will pursue will
be that of turning their arms upon their real
enemies and foes of the south, the Breckinridges,
Davises and other leaders in the rebellion.
Soso of our secession sympathizing journals
are still harping upon the desperate straits to
which the war must soon reduce the North, if
it is continued. They need not distress them
selves. As we said in substance the other day,
we have too much money, too much food, too
much energy, too much intelligence, too much
good sense, to allow this civil war to beggar us.
We have experienced too many financial panics
and monetary disasters to permit this interrup
tion of commerce and trade to starve us out, or
frighten us into national disgrace. Those who
harp upon the hard times, for the sake of pro
procuring peace at the cost of the Union, are
the cowards of the nation, the poltroons of the
Republic. We have passed, the worst of the
crisis. • The rebellion has spent its force. The
Government has only to sustain the army it
has in the field, and it will soon restore the
commerce of the country. it advances It
will revive trade, re-open markets, assist indus
try into prosperity, and cheer up the whole
people. 'The - best and surest way to restore our
wonted activity and prosperity is, to push' on
the war—push it vigorously—push it rapidly
to the end. If this is done, the dull tines will
soon be over, and trade move on with its wont
ed vigor.
Tim Cusron iri me Amer AND NAVY of those
who were educated at the public expense, re
signing whenever an opportunity better than
that ,found in the service to make money was
offered, has long been a subject of serious an
noyance to the country thus ungratefully treated,
as well as conduct, so far as honor is concerned,
of the most questionable character on the part
of those thus throwing up their commissions,
that pride,the love of gain,or the anger of disap
pointment may dictate. Every boy educated at
West Point, is morally and legally (we think)
bound to serve in the capacity for which he was
trained and skilled, at the expense of the peo
ple, and, when that boy after arriving at man
hood, seeks some other sphere of occupation,
he does so with this obligation still resting on
him, ; and is jusuly liable to be called upon at
any moment of danger to his country, to •ren
der the service which the expense. of his educa
tion makes obligatory on himself, and _which
patriotism dictates as the duty of, every loyal
citizen. Congress also has some disposition to
reform this evil of resigning, by making it
fairly understood before any resignation of an
officer either in the , army or navy can be ac
.
cepto, that, in case of war or rebellion, such
officer shall obey the summons of the President,
to serve in such capacity and, for such a term as
he may see fit to designate. To accomplish this,
a resolution has been offered in Congress, which
should be passed without delay.

Pes Dirmancerr,
Harrisburg, July, 22, 1861.
Gorge Bergner, .E9l" Proprietor and Publisher of
the Pennsylvania Telegraph:
QM!
Dear Sir—l have been shown the TELZGEAPH
of the afternoon of the 20th inst.,_ and leant
that many consider the closing paragraph of
the editorial - therein, entitled "The Returning
Volunteers—their Pay and Re-enlistment," to
have, been intended to apply to this Department
and myself. I cannot see what connection
there can be between the payment of the Penn
sylvania:Reserve Volunteer Corps which beknigs to
this &pastrami, and the returning volunteers,
who are to be paid by the United Oates .Govern
ment; and I therefore presume there must be a
misunderstanding upon the part of thciie whO
consider that this department is alluded to in
your remarks. If they are in error, it is right
that the impressionwhich has been made should
be corrected, and in either respect justice to the
State administration and myself makes it pro
per for me to state a few facts in connection
with the department, as its operation and acts
do not seem to be generally understxd.
In June last his Excellengy Governor Curtin
telegraphed to meat Easton that Iliad been sp..
pointed Paymaster General, and I WL3 requested
, V
to report myself here immediately. Although
this summons was wholly unexpected and un
looked for, I promptly complied, and from Har
risburg prceeded to Washington, to the o ffi ce
of the Paymaster General of the United States,
to procure information as to the character and
details of the duties of the office. Paymaster
General Seward was very courteous and obliging,
and besides giving me the information I de
sired, gave me also copies of the blanks in use.
I returned to Harrisburg, altered these blanks
to suit the State service, and handed them to
the State Printer, requesting all dispatch. They
were prbmised by July Ist, and upon that day
most of them were received. I 'immediately
commenced distributing them, with .the infor
mation that payment would be made up to that
date.
By the 'United Statesregalations and practice,
as I am informed, the U. S. troops are to be
paid every two mondw, if practicable. The State
administration, desirous to relieve the members
of the BeserieNolluiteer Corps; agreed - to pay
to that date, although the Act of Assembly au
thorizing the corps was only passmd a month
and a half previous. To very many of the com
panies there was not one month's pay due on
the 18th of July. The Paymasters appointed
are now busily engaged in paying under, these
instructions. -
Although the - duties of Paymaster General
awl Paymaster are very different, yet to aid in
economizing the hind appropriated by the Le
gislatttre, I agi tied, in addition to my other
duties, to act as Poymbster for a portion of this
reserve corps, and have already myself paid off
five regiments, and expect to pay another to-day.
The Paymaster Genend,under the tegtilations
of this department, does not himself, as such,
draw any money from the vaults of the treasury
for the payment of the troops. Each Paymaa
ter draws upon the warrant of the Governor,
to pay the troops assigned to him, and is only
entitled to have on hand at any time a portion
of the penalty of his bond.
That a department, new as this is, and called
into action by the present exigencies, could do
more, with the force assigned it, than has been
done, I do not believe, and thence I presume
there le error in attributing the remarks ill your
editorial, as to delays to it.
In conausion allow me briefly to recipit
1. perpsatinerit is.ta pay the Penagylvo,
nip reserve volunteerl Corps, not the returnirw
2. The Pouroplvanio, reserte-vglulteer oorps
AlifT-924 1 01AtilL
pro .
3. The Paymaster General here has no au
thority as such to cheek out money from the
vaults of the Treasury for the payment of the
troops. Each Paymaster draws the money for
payment of the troops assigned him, and can
only draw so that his bond continues to protect
the State.
- -
4. No delays have occurred in paying beyond
what were required to have the duties of this
highly responsible office carefully, properly and
accurately discharged, and the payments which
have been made were before (ander the practice
of the United States service) the corps had the
right to expect them.
Very respectfully yours, etc.,

_Our troops, after taking three 'batteries and
gaining a great victory, -were eventually re

rear well covered by a good Column. Our kiss
is from two thousand' five hundred to three
thousand. The fortifications around Washing

FURTHER DETA.ILS THE BATITX.
After - the latest information was received
from Centreville, at half past seven o'clock
last night, a series of events took pladis in the
intensest degree diiiistrobs. -- Many confused
Statements ire, prevalent r but r enough is known
to warrant statement that we hare suffered
in a degree which has cast a gloom over the
remnant of the arrny,, and excited the deepest,
melancholy througholieWaslAgtoli. - - The tat
has been tremendously- heavy on both
sides, and on ours is represented as frightful.
We were advancing and taking the masked
batteries gradually but surely,-and'-driving the
enemy towards Idanaseas Junction, when the
enemy seemed to be reinformi by Gen. John
ston, and immediately coil ittenced driving us
back, when a paniOarnong our troops suddenly
occurred and a regular stainpede took. place.
It is thought that Gen. DicDowell undextoOk
to make a stand at or' abotit Centreville but
the panic was so fearful that the whole army
became demoralized, and it was impossible to
check them either at Centreville or Fairfax
Couxt Rouse.
Gen. McDowell intended to make-another
stand at Fairfax Court House but our forces be
ing in full retreat he could not accomplish the
object. Beyond Fairfax. Court House the re
treat was kept up until the men reached their
regular encampments, a portion .of whom re
turned to them butastill larger portion coming
inside of•.the line of entrenchments.
A . .
large number of the troops in their retreat
fell on the wayside from exhaustion and scat
tered along the entire-route all -the way. from
Faizfax Court House. The road from Bull's
Run to Centreville was strewed with knapsacks,
arms, &c. tome of the troops deliberately
threw away their guns and appurtenances the
letter to facilitate their travel.
Gail. McDowell main the rear at the retreat
exerting himself to rally Ins men, butivith only
partial effect. The latter part of the' army, it
is said; Made their retreat...lU goal' order. - He
was completely exhausted, having slept' but
little for three nights. His gide% ea the field,
did not at all times reach those for whom they
were intended.
It is supposed that the force kerit against our
troops consisted, according to a prisoner's state
ment, of about 80,90 Q .Viela, including a large
number of cavalry.„.lie further says,that owing
to the reinforcement:S . front Richniond, Straws

force was 90,000 men. •

Large droves of cattle were saved by being
driven back in the advance of the retreat.
It is supposed here that Gen. Mansfield will
take command of the fortifications on the other
side of the river, which are able, it is paid by
military engineers, to hold them against any
force the enemy may bring. Large rifled can
nons and mortars are being rapidly sent over
and mounted.
- -- -
An officer just from Virginia at half past ten
reports that the road from Centreville, to the
Potomac is strewed with stragglers. The troops
are resuming the occupation of the fortifications
and entrenchments en the line of the Potomac.
Col; Marston, of a New Hampshire regiment,
reached here this morning. He was wounded.
Col. Heintzleman was also wounded in the
wrist. In addition to those reported yesterday
it is said that Col. Wilcox, the commanaer of a
brigade, was killed. Also, Capt. McCook,
brother of Capt. McCook of Ohio.
The city this morning is in the most intense
excitement. Groups are everywhere gathered,
inquiring the late:t news. Wagons are contin
ually arriving bringing dead and wounded.
Soldiers are relating to greedy listeners the
probable events of last night and early this
morning.
Both telegraph and steamboat Communica
tion with Alexandria are suspended to-day to
the public. The greatest alarm exists through
out the city, especially among the female por
tion of the population.
CAUSE OF 11:11: PANIC
The following is an account of the inang,urtt
tion of the panic which has operated so disas
trously to our troops- It receives unusual in
terest from the subsequent events. All our
military operations went on swimmingly, and
Col. Alexander was abOut erecting a pontoon
across Bull Run. The enemy were seemingly
in retreat., and their batteries being unmasked
one after another, when a terrific consternation
broke out among the teamsters who had incau
tiously advanced immediately after the body of
the army and lined the Warrentown road.
Their consternation was shared in by the nu
merous civilians who were on the ground, and
for a time it seemed as if the whole army was
in retreat.
Many baggage wagons were emptied of their
contents and the horses galloped across the open
fields. All the fences were torn down to allow
them a more rapid retreat. For a time a per
fect panic prevailed, which communicated it
self to the vicinity of Centreville, and every
available conveyance was seized upon by the
agitated civilians. The wounded soldiers on
the road-side cried for assistance, but the alarm
was so great that numbers were passed by.
Several similar alarms occurred on previous
occasions when a change of batteries rendered
the retirement of the artillery necessary on our
part, and it is most probable that the alarm
was owing to the same fact.
The reserve force at Centreville was imme
diately, brought up and marched in double quick
step in the following order : Col. Einstein's
twenty-seventh Pennsylvania Regiment with
two guns, the Garibaldi Guards and Blanker's
first title regiment with its batteries ; followed
at several miles distant by the De Kalb re
giment.
When our courier left at half-past four o'clock
P, M., it was in the midst of the excitement.
Two :new masked batteries had been opened by
the rebels on the left flank, and that portion of
the division bad had its lines broken and de
manded immediate reinforcements. The right
was in good order. The battery erected on the
hill side directly opposite the main battery of
the enemy was doing good execution and addi
tional guns were being mounted.
On hircarrival at Fairfax Court House our
Courier was overtaken by government messen
gers; who reported that our army was in full
retreat toward Centreville. They were follow
ed by less agitated parties who stated that 'the
report of the retreat was owing to the fact that
to.....niam among tnereamsters had cominuni
cated itself to the volunteers, and even in some
instances to the regulars, and the lines were
thus broken, and that the retirement of our
forces across Bull's Run was rendered neces
sary.;
Col. Hunter passed at the same time in a ve
hicle; wounded. Ayre's battery was also re
ported as lost. Crowds of carriages and bag
gage ;wagons came rushing down the road. The
telegraph office was closed against all private
business, and in an hour the alarm had com
municated all along the road to Washington.
