HARRISBURG' PA Friday Afternoon, July 26, 1861 THE REINFORCEMENTS FROM PENN- SYLVANIA On Sunday evening last a requisition was re ceived by Gov. Curtin, from the Secretary of War, to forward to Washington, as speedily as possible, all of the reserve corps that were ready for action., Immediately orders were issued, and the movement commenced. The troops in camp at West Chester, Easton and Pittsburg, Immediately began to prepare for a movement to Camp Curtin, where they were fully equipped and armed, and at once forwarded to Wash ington. Thus, since Monday last, gathering the troops from these distant points, assembling them at Harrisburg t omd furnishing them with the necessary clothing and arms, nearly Eleven Theusand Men, in the very best order and disci pline, have been forwarded to Washington city, and are now in active service. Beside these ten, regiments thus forwarded this week, there were five other regiments that had gone forward before these had started on the march, so that Pennsylvania has now some sixteen thousand fresh fighting men in the field. In addition to these the War Department has made another requisition on the Governor, for ten other new regiments, to which we may add two more that are organizing independently of any requisition. These are filling up very fast, from the returned men, the very best of whom are re-enlisting. When these are full, and we predict their organization in less than a month, Pennsylvania will again have at least THIRTY THOUSAND Flamm MEN in the field. 2V THE SOLDIERS ! There has been so much complaint on the part of the soldiers, in relation to their enter lainment, that we deem it our duty to inform them that the neglect is within their own reach and remedy. There is sufficient in store, in pos session of the government to feed every volun teer in Harrisburg, and feed him well, if his `Cliptaln will do his duty, and look to the com fort of the men. The Colonels of regiments should also be reminded that their duty is not over, grid that they still are under obligations to care for the comfort of their men. - If the officers of companies and regiments do their duty to the men, the men themselves can soon be made comfortable—but if on their ar rival in Harrisburg, the officers seek the com fort of the hotels, and leave the men to the curb-stone and the market-house, they must of course suffer. We know a dozen companies whose men are well cared for, simply because they were looked after and protected as well as commanded by the captains. If all the captains do their duty, all the men will be made as com fortable as the occasion can possibly permit. THE PAYMENT OF TEE TROOPS It is due to the Paymaster General to state, :that the delay in the payment of the troops is in no'degree to be attributed to his Department, but to thoie in the different companies who are charged with preparing the company muster •rolls. Major B. Cameron, Paymaster in the 11. A., accompanied by "a number of assistants, Is now here, prepared to pay the troops as fast as: the muster rolls are presented. He brought with him a large amount of gold and silver, and has forwarded drafts to New York for other an:mounts, which will be , forwarded as soon as the sub-Treasurer at that point is able to count -and ship the money. In this connection, we may also state in justice to the government, ,tbat the disbursement of paper currency by one of the paymasters in this city, was entirely unwarranted by law, and was immediately pro tested against and stopped by Mr. J. D. Cameron, who is aidinz the paymasters here in facilita ting the shipment of gold and silver from New York to pay the troops. COMMISSARY QENERAL EZWIN dogma McCall, who is now in command of a force in the regular army, has telegraphed to Commitoary General Irwin, offering him the charge of the Commissary's Department of his division. This is a very high compliment coming from an officer of the experience and ilisapline, such as distinguish Gen. McCall, and the compliment is no less deserved, as Gen. has proyen himself every way worthy of luck a recornition by the faithfulness with which he . hal disc'harged his duty in connection with the volunteer forces of . Pennsylvania. We believe that the offer, has been declined, It being-the intention of Gen. Irwin to mlfil the great trust reposed in him by Gov. Curtin, and remain at the head of the Commissary De iortikent of Pennsylvania until the end of the struggle. ARTILLERY ORDERS • Orders have been received from Washington for the humediate transfer of the artillery force .now organized in this state to the line of ope ration on the Potomac. Preparations are now being'made to carry out this order, and we learn that Capt. Campbell is now actively engaged in Arranging for the transport of ordnance and men, and that as soon as horses can be procured, - they will-start on their destination for the seat of war Charley Campbell has the reputation of being a brave and efficient officer,. and he how will soon have another chance of again proving, as he did on the battle-fields of Mexico, his in disputable claim to such a reputation. . , i . I 1 ii I THE ORIGINAL PLAN OF OPERATION Since the result of the sanguinary encoun ter at Bull Run, which was regarded at first as a calamity, but which was in reality a vic tory, dimmed in its glory by the subsequent con fusion and retreat of the federal forces, the old and original plan of operation is now comment ed upon and admitted to be the most promising of practical results. During the time consumed in fortifying the border, erecting entrench ments and extending our lines, the discipline of the troops was to be thoroughly secured. This would have been easy and pleasant occupation for the men during the warm months in the latitude of Washington city, Fort Monroe, Western Virginia, Cairo, and other localities se lected by the wisdom of the Commander-in- Chief. It was designed to secure the erection of immense lines of fortifications, the protec tion of the border by a small body of men when an advance became necessary, and what would be of more importance than all, the discipline and organization of an army such as never be fore raised its banners or shouldered its mus kets in this country. It was evidently the de sign of the Old Hero and Chieftain Scott, to make this demonstration of a character that would have its effects at home and abroad. He desired, doubtless, to exhibit the energy and the strength of the nation in their most promi nent light, as well to strike terror into the hearts of traitors, imbue loyal men with con fidence in their government, and leave no room for the world to mistake the, purposes of a gov ernment to defend its interests abroad that was thus prompt and decisive with treason at home. When this grand army had been completely organized, and after frost had destroyed the infebtions of a southern climate, its movements were to be proposed. Who can doubt the ef fect of such a demonstration? But it has been thwarted by the impetuous anxiety of that por tion of the people in the loyal states who fight battles with adjectives and adverbs, and who direct military movements with the pen instead of the sword. The result at Bull Run is the first effect of this impetuous interference, which has already had the effect of silencing this in lerferenee, and will hereafter leave the military authorities free to act as their experience and judgment may dictate. And that result will be VICTORY ! THE PEOPLE OF HARRISBURG AND TILE VOLUNTEERS. Since Monday morning there has been a large body of volunteers in the city of Har risburg, their number being increased with the arrival of special trains from the south, almost every hour in the day. From six to eight thou sand men have been in the city during this time, and this large number of people are liter ally quartered on the citizens of Harrisburg. They were brought here in a hurry. They were landed in our midst without any provision -having been made for their accommodation, hungry, weary and clamoring for their money. They could not go without food, and therefore the hospitable people of Harrisburg have thrown. open their doors, spread their boards with what would satisfy the hungry, and the soldier has been welcome to enter and eat. Besides thus -feeding the hungry a large amount of money has ,been contributed in small sums to a large number of people. We know of instances of men giving as high as five to ten dollars per day, during this week, and there are hun dreds of these cases of contributions that are not known, which would swell this amount in the aggregate to a large sum. Our friends through out the state, in the homes of the returning volunteers, will understand our reference to this matter. We do not desire to impose any obli gation on them by the exercise of this hospi tality, because it was bounteously and gener ously bestowed. Our object is only to give the proper credit to the people of Harrisburg, leav ing the estimate of their hospitality to be fixed and approved by the soldiers who enjoyed it, and their friends who will hear of it at home. We would be doing injustice, if we omitted to refer to our different hotels, large and small, whose proprietors aro no less hospitable and generous; than the citizens at large In entertain-, ing the hungry soldiers. It is unnecessary to mention these in detail. It is sufficient for us to if.now that they have all been taxed more or less hi contlitiuting to the appetite and repose of the hungry and weary soldiers. Altogether, we have reason to be proud of the manner in which the returning soldiers are treated by the people of our beautiful city. This gallant young -Pemasylvanian, who waa , among the earliest appointments of the Secre tary of War, distinguished himself during the late severe contest at Bull Run in a manner that reflects credit alike upon himself and the ser vice. ' In - thitractetuit'of - the battle published in the Balthnore Sun, he is thus alluded to: This officer had three men shot while en deavoring to stop the retreat, and he himself performed gallant service in this way after hav ing received the following wounds: A pistol shot through the arm,,received in the last charge of the secession cavalry; a wound in the side from the splinter of a shell, received in the field; a sabre cut on the shoulder, received while en deavoring to stop the, retreat. A correspondent of the New York World cor roborates the above with the following addi tional statement of fact and compliment: The sight of Miles' reserve , drawn up on the hills at Centreville, supporting a full battery of field pieces, and the efforts of the few officers still faithful to their trust, encouraged many of the fugitive infantry to seek their old camps and go no further. But the majority pushed on to a point near the late site of Germantown, where Lieutenant Brisbin had formed a line of Hunt's artillerists across the road, and repulsed all who attempted to break through. I partic ularly request attention to the services thus rendered by this loyal young officer. Lieut. Brisbin is now at Herr's Hotel; still in a critical condition, but receiving every atten tion and kindness that his friends and the host can bestow. COL. JAMS CAMERON'S Highland Regiment suffered immensely in loss of officers, besides that of their lamented leader. Four Captains were killed on the geld; one. Major and two Captains severely wounded. A large number of Lieutenants: were also wounded and =info& while the loss of non-commissioned offims is equally great. All this proves the sturdy fight ing and heroic courage of the gallant and la mented Colonel and his officers. pennepluaiia ID I zip tdegrap fins • mr LIEUT. JAMES S. BRISBIN: TEE BATTLE OF BULL RUN. The more we regard and ponder the facts connected with the battle of Bull Run, the more we examine its results as a whole, the more we are forced to regard it as a victory in stead of a defeat, notwithstanding so many of the circumstances attending its conclusion con spire to exhibit it in an unfavorable light. The main point against us now- is, that a por tion of the troops became panicized and fled or retreated from the field. -This is true in detail, but in fact the retreat is not , so disgraceful as many good citizens have been unrelunctently forced to suppose, simply because that retreat was after having accomplished the most stu pendous results, both in the assault of batter- ies, the destruction of entrenchments, and the actual defeat of Beauregard and Johnston. Be forethe division of Johnston hadr.eaeked the scene of action, it will be remembered that Gen. Beauregard had been defeated, driven from Bull Run to his'entrenchments at Manas sas Gap, and even stormed, there by : our gallant and victorious troops. It was while Beaure gard was in that position, that Johnston made his appearance on the field and was also' de feated—defeated fairly and almost terribly, and this, too, when both Bea.uregard and Johnston attempted to form and censolidate their col umns, the men under McDowell, turned on the forces under Beauregard* and again defeated him. At this, juncture the confusion occurred which pariccized the entire feciend force, The civilituis, on whom this disgrace must forever rest, began to retreat, on horseback, in coaches and on foot, their movements at once discover ed by the teamsters, who also began to : fly, ,and who in turn infused . panic into the army, and then began the retreat Which-lost us the credit of a' victory that had been fairly achieved. We desire that these facts be fairly Set before , , the world that the reputation of the federal forces does not suffer injury from misrepresents= tion. Men never acted 'nobler, than ditftbose who struggled before the masked . batteries of the enemy. They possessed and held successive ly certain batteries eight times, .and.on each repulse, returned to the assault with a vigor and. zeal that would have done credit to vetrans.. They.withstood the most blanching and destruc tive fire, and regiment after-regiment only left the field after each was convinced that the bat tle was irretrievably lost, and that retreat, in I good order, was , the better part of, valor.. There is no doubt that the retreat has given immense satisfaction to the rebels, as it has to their sympathizers in the loyal, states. It • was unfortunate at the time that it occurred, but under all the circumstances, taking the confu sion of the civilians and the panic of. the team sters, the people can justly reserve part of• the censure they were so prone to heap .upon the troops, for some of their own derilictions in the hour of danger and embarrasment. THE ,APPEARA/VCE THE : SOLDIERS. We doubt if there were a haler, hartier, or stronger .looking body of men ever seen by those accustomed to large crowds, than- the. soldiers now gathered in Harrisburg. There is:some thing in the faces of these men, that indicates health—something in their gait and conduct that exhibits the genial spirit of honest hearts, pride and independence. They do not look as if they were Starved—they do not act as if they were reckless'or irresponsible, and with the ex ception of a few'," we are proud to note, for the satisfaction of the people in the localities where these men belong, throughout the broad state of Pennsylvania, that we never noticed a more orderly, sober and' well-behaved body of 'men assembled on any occasion Or for any Purpose. They are just from the camp, where we were accustomed to hear' they were illy treated, hut they, themselves, fail intheir 'own personal ap pearance to present the' evidence of this ill treatment, and we have a right to believe from his, that Pennsylvania is not the ungrateful mother of her gallant defenders, that the ser vile and venal press of her neighbors would have the world believe. If the soldiers of every commonwealth look as well on their yetprn home as do those of Pennsylvania, there will be more boasting and ,rejoicing : , over the, fact than there is at present in this state, simply because we are more prone to complain panto boast. And we venture the assertion, too, that scarcely a single man of all those who:rare soon to return to ' their immediate 'homes,. will be welcomed by his friends without remarks on his Improved condition and appearance. This is the noblest vindication that .old Pennsylvania could need or ask those of her soldiers who have taken ordinary care of themieves, with the care and attention given to the* by the authorities, look well, act well, and we are con vinced, feel well. But those who were and are dissipated, not only disgraced themielves, but the service, while all the attention and care that a hundred authorities could bestow upon them could not counteract the evil influences of their own dissipation& This is the fairest way to explain com Plaints and appearances... Ex-Samoa Bun As, who was among the ci vilians whose retreat at Bull Run assisted in the confusion and panicking of the Army under Gen. it'Dowell, seems , to, have continued his backward movement until he reached Harrb3-, burg, as wenoticed him on promenade last even ing. We had 1 49 PPPortunity to inquire. into the strength of his knees, but will risk the declara : lion that they were uot any stronger than naiad; and still continue to shake when under the in fluence of the Ex-Senator's peculiar. mental tre pidations.

A Splendid Regiment from Penn sylvania Accepted. CAPTURE OF REBEL_ VESSELS The Rebels Fortifying Fairfax Court House. It is said that the government holds Colonel Miles responsible for the disaster of Sunday. The Colonel was in command of our reserves at Centreville, and it is reported that he was neg ligent at the critical moment. He is under ar rest and will, be tried by Court-Martial. The government has accepted a regiment of artillery from Pennsylvania to-day. The regi ment numbers one, thousand men, and has a battery of thirty guns, together with five squad rons of cavalry and a full equipment of rifles. The men are all Pennsylvanians. The war steamer . Resolute has just arrived here from a cruise along the shore of Virginia. She has captured two schooners and a sloop, and found three new rebel batteries on the Potomac, one of them mounting six guns. The report of the re-occupation of Fairfax Court House by the rebels is confirmed. The enemy are planting batteries of artillery at that point. Congress will not adjourn this week. AFFAIRS IN MISSOURI Accounts from Keokuk, lowa, say that sev eral hundred secessionists took possession of Memphis, Scotland county, on Friday last, and were entrenching themselves, in the apprehen- sion of an attack from about one thousand Union men under Col. Moore, who were en camPOd near by. . . The usual stand of arms have been distributed along the southern border of lowa by Governor Kirkwood. Much excitement existed on the border of both States. The secessiodists are disarming Union men in the northeastern portion of Missouri. PATRIOTISM IN BOSTON The circular from Secretary Chase, asking a loan of five millions of dollars from the Boston banks for sixty days, at six per cent. interest, is being readily responded to. Yesterday several of the banks subscribed from one hundred to two hundred and fifty thousand dollars each, while others concur, but have to refer the mat ter to their boards of directors. ACCEPTANCE OF NEW REGIMENTS Eight new regiments from Ohio were recently accepted, Capt. Harris, of Cincinnati, for bra very in the recent action, was to-day authorized to raise a regiment. Col -McCook had previous ly obtained similar authority. New regiments are being constantly tendered and accepted. XXXVIIth Congress—Extra Session. .

Mr. STEPHENS replied that it depended some what on the Senate: He intended to move to go into committee of the whole on the state of the Union to consider the tax bill. The House, by its action on that measure, would be able, to determine as to whether Congress shall stay longer. . - Wasimusare (Illinois,) suggested that the House should continue in session to-day till the reports of the committee of conference be dis posed of, instead of adjourning now till Mon: day.
