TIM PENNSYLVANIANS INTHE FIELD.
We published, some time since, a list of the
regiments from this state, with their location,
which was designed to be used as a reference
until the operations of the grand army would
change their localities, and scatter these regi
ments to scenes of more active and positive du
ty. All of these regiments have been noticed,
more or less by the press throughout the state,
until the people of Pennsylvania ate now per
fectly familiar with the number of troops there
are in the field from this commonwealth, and
the officers who command them. But there is
one other fact connected with these men, which
goeti further In exhalting the honor and fame of
the Keystone state, than the immense force we
have in the service,or the lavish liberality with
which the authorities have equipped and armed
these volunteers. What strikes the observer of
the.camps along the Potomac, and what has
most been commented on by correspondents and
is . the morale and discipline of our
temps. To mention these facts now, is not to
indulge in egotism, or to claim -for our troops
more than their share of merit or of commenda
tion, because in doing so we only repeat what
has `tgaitilfrihtial in almost every leading jour
nal in the country, with, regard to the men of
Pennsylvania. When we now write that these
inen are-In a high state of discipline, we admit
their devotion. to the cause in the Simple fact
thaklaithigit enthusiasm and real,'not body of
mu twin short a time, could have arrived- at
erticiPailintrable efficiency, in; which the success
of or clause and the confidence of our comman
ders are both so cheering,ly established.
One of the most persistent iterations of the
leaders in this rebellion, long before it was de=
'eloped, against the people of the north, related
to their Military qualities. Northern men were
held in contempt because they were presumed
and thatiged to be deficient in military attain
ments. The martial spirit of the land dwelt only
among The chivalry of the south. Inspiration
to stmt abided only with those who lived in
ease as millionares or wielded power es slave
drivers, The pursuits of the people of the north
did not tend to the cultivation of courage or
the development of prowess, and because they
despised the duello, the passionate street en
counter, and shrunk from blood with the horror
of Christian men, the people of the north were
all cowards, unable to support or vindicate any
cause or principle in a contest of arms. Such
was the opinion of the leaders of this rebellion,
and on the force of this conviction they rested
thehrheigin 'of success. They. setaired 'almost a
unanimous trlce among the,magges of the North
to area , because they deemixl the vgri threat
to rebel tantamount to. triumph. They con
sidered, the array of an army the accomplish
ment of their purpose, because, forsooth, thopople
of the north were all cowards
Our military organization has proved the
fallacy and utter falaehood_of these accusations,
and this fact fairly established the Minds of
the-people of the south, is equal to the achieve
ment of a great victory. Cowards are not so
prompt to organize for battle. If the men of Penn
sylvania had not been imbued with the old spirit
which still lingers around Valley Forge end has
its vontriee among the yeomen of Paoli, instead of
numbering a hundred thousand in the field, our
force would have been more insignificant than
that which once marehed up hill and down in
France, or lost its courage among the marshes
of Flanders. But not only have we courage and
&mitten; but discipline and valor distinguish
the rileit *Ma all the Loyal States. , This is a
fact`as gliiicius as is the fact of Pennsylvaniare,s
prominence in peace as well as war. it is th
great , fact which has already inspired the tral- e
tors with terror, and it is a fact, too, when it.,
moves in the shape of our armies,_ which will
strike death to the heart of rebellion.
All honor, then, to the men of Pennsylvania,
who have thus nobly sustained themselves in
the, rapacity of soldiers, aid who favorable,
promise to maintain themselves in battle as
heroes l

WHO SHOULD PAY THE WAR DEBT?
War hwralways been an expense for those who
wage and those who resist it, and in every case
the end sought by its influence, is acemnpanied
with so many ills that the good which was at
first contemplated is entirely destroyed by the
evils entailed. In every case, the wars of the
world have increased the burdens of those nations
which have engaged in arms. The enormous debt
of England, so colossal new iri figures that to
compute Its extant is like the relation of some
fabulous or extravagant story, this debt was
alone created by war, and this burden now
weighing down the British masses, sprang from
that English desire for revenge and power,
which will yet terminate England's career as a
nation s and make herannals bloodier thin those
of the OW, the ktittlian c4Y114 bommori pirate
of the seas. But this sententious digression is
not answering our own question, as to who 14 to
pay the war debt 'so fearfully Accumulating in
this contest, and yet not increasing a penny be-,
gond• the imp:atm:ice of the crisis Or the Thine
of the prbAciples Ihivolvedt: TO Millions of
debt thus incurred, must be wiped out and fair
ly liquidated sooner. or later, and the sooner
-the better for high considerations of economy.
Thkqe l 2 t should not . be ; from the f;e.P .
labor of the loyal statsoirttply hectanse that
labor has heretofore sustained this government,
and the chew of men are-now in the ,field with
bbsoms bared to defend it unto death. The 1
debt must be collected Where ita inception occur
red—the
cause of, the war must pay. the expense
of the oitna le, mid the burden fair alike on
those who encourage bi . syMpathy as well as
those who maintain in Person, the evils of the
rebellion. •
'
''One of 'the most prac an the same
time the easiest modes of paying the great debt
of .tbe still greater rebellion!, is by' Intone. of
export duties. These dutiescan be levied on cot
ton, rice, tobacca, pitch, tar and turpentine, all
the peculiar producta of , the soil of the south.
The great staple, (*ton, is the basis on , which
rests the , hopes of• the traitors to snowed: Its
supply decreasai or '„entirely cut off from the
English manufacturer, is the pretext now for
British interference in the just efforts of this
government to restore peace within its territory,
so that this income tax; while it would not in
reality oppress the people of the south, it would
teach the hypocracy of John Bull a lesson that
might deter him hereafter from Mteriering in
other people's business. Cotton, two years.
ago, was worth froni 9016 cents per pound,
according to qtudity; making an average of ,
about fifteen cents per pound for.the Writ article
in the market. The price of baton', 4ow is'
thirty-eight cents per pound, with, the supply
so diminished as to leave themarketeconstrmtly
exhausted. It cannot be'prodtical in 'any other
latitude or climate in the world for. less than
22®25 cents per pound, and the cotton greatly
Inferior to the long, fineand strong fibre'of the
Atlantic states. With the price Of cotton here
tofore at fifteen cents per pined, and the In
ability to raise such crops at less than :twenty
five cents per pound, in any other part'of the
world, it -would - requireonly an export talc . of
.
tan taus, per pouud on, the Ameriom staple to
bring American cotton up to the price which it
costs to raise the article in other ditties, and
by this means our meddlesome naghbors, the .
Britishraanufacturers, would be coinpelled to pay
the expenses of a war that affords them so south
amusement as being the means of destroying
government they both bate and fear. What
ever may be the result of the struggle, this ex
port tax is bound to be levied. If the English
and French governments' recognized . the trai
tors of the south on the let of January, 1862,
before another January -would roll around
the cycle of the year, the rebelli would be de
fraying the, expenses of the war and supporting
their government by such an identical tax—and
if the national government secceeds, which is.
More a fixed fact than the conjecture of the
other this came: tax r ust be .leNlied inorder•tß,
prevent the buiden'ofi .
on'
those who have suffered the brunt of the con
test,- . .
The idea of this income tax is merely men
tioned now as a casualfing,gestionokanordipary
newsp +per article, which a more elaborate
mathematical elucidation .will still make more
obviate. In a very few years a debt of a thou
sand millions could be liquidated without cost
ing the American people a dollar. It would be
liquidated by the export tax on cotton, while a
similar tax on ride, tobacco,, pitch; tar, turpen
tine and rosin, Might'he collected to ,support a
pension list and maintain a respectable military
force in the field until the poison of rebellion
Was entirely eradicated fromsonthern sixciety:
We leave this subject to the reflection and di
,
gestion of our practical readers. There is no
sophistry in it, and its results can as: easily be
computed as Is the school tax of a borough or
the income from real estate.in a county, when
the amount of cotton raised and exported in
one year is ascertained.

WASHINGTON, • NT. 20
This morning, at 6 o'clock, a portion of Gen.
McCall's divisiod proceedfid in the directibn 'of
Tiduiesvi on a foraOng expedition, and for
the purpose of making a reconnoisance in that
locality. Draneeville is about midway between
McCall's headquarters and Leesburg.
On arriving in that vicinity they encountered
the:enatny, _who had four regiments of infantry,
cbmpoaed of South Carolinians, Alabamians,
and Kentuckians,' with one battery of six pieces
and a regiment of cavalry, under the command
of Gen. Stewart.
• The Wily troops on our part' engaged in the
affair at Draneaville, were General Ord's lid
ghde;the First regim ent of rifles, and Easton's
battery of four guns. At four o'clock, after the
aetion, General McCall sent two officers to count
the rebels who were killed and wounded, and
it was ascertained that they had left on the
field fifty-seven killed and twenty-two wounded.
Three of the latter died on being removed,
Making their loss sixty killed and nineteen
wounded ; making a total of seventy-nine kil
led and wounded, and they no doubt carried
off 'mato; More.
The enemy were completely routed, and fled
piecipitatt-ly after a light of an bout and a ball,
leaving two cannon and a quantity of small
aims, blankets, great coats, tic., more than our
troops could bring away.
Our men also brought in some prisoners be
sides the wounded.
Our loss is, as near as can be ascertained at
Vesent, about ten killed and fifteen wounded.
:The expedition returned to their camp at
Lingley's at nine o'clock to night.
- :General McCall, in a despatch received at
headquarters to 'night, says too much credit
cannot be given to General Ord for his gallantry
and skill taroughout the day.
Easton's battery was admirably served and
did good execution. '
•Therilles behaved finely..
DETAILS OF THE BATTLE.
'Since the official despatch of the affair at
Draineaville today was forwarded, we are ena
bled to give the following
. particulars :
General Or d
_ started at s i x o'clock this morn
ing. His command consisted of fobs full regi
ments ; the Bucktail Rifles, Lieutenant. Colonel
Have, and Easton's batte ry, consisting of two
twelve found howitisets. They proceeded on a
foraging expedition in the direction of preines
ville. General McCall, anticipating they might
be attacked, ordered First and Second brigades
to follow at eight A. M. The First brigade,
General Reynolds, advanced on the Leesburg
turnpike, and took a position on Difficult creek
to await further orders. Two hours later Qen.
McCall, with his staff and escort of cavalry, fol
,lotved by the same route.
'Meantime Gen. Ord advanced to Thorton's
House, near Drainesville, when his command
was suddenly fired upon by a force lying in
ambush in dense woods adjacent This was the
signal of battle, and a brisk engagement prompty
infrared.
Gen. McCall, who arrived a few minutes pre
'dowdy, took command. In & moment's time
Has — ton's battery was planted alongside the
Thorton House, and fired rapidly and with tent
.ble effect in the enemy's ambush. CoL Kane's
?Buck-tail riflemen" were placed in advance,
arid fired upon the enemy wherever they made
their appearance. The rebels, who bad a bat
tery of taix pieces, returned the cannonading,
and replied to the rifles with musketry. The
ping was kept up some three-quarters of an
hcinr, when the enemy retreated rapidly, the
fire of the whole brigade, rifles and battery, be
ing too hot for them.
Our troops stood up bravely under the sharp ,
vqlleyr of the rebels. Their steadiness was
praised by Gen. McCall and his officers.
The rebels took the' direction of Fairfat.
Court House, leaving on ihe field a number of
thbir killed and wounded. Our troops pursued
`them a short distance, and returned.
The scene in the w oods presented all the hor
row. of esaruguiew,hattle are the dead
arardiing lying seriatim in various directions.
lqrty dead bodies of the rebels were picked up,
and' fifteen wounded prisoners were taken and
placed inHunter's and other houses.in Drakes
!vale. •
Gen. Ord captured eight wounded prisoners
add two caissons with ammunition.
In their haste the enemy left behind arms of
all descriptions, clothing, &v. '
Their loss is estimated at 150 killed and
wounded,. Among the killed was Colonel Tom.
Taylor, of Frankfort, Ky., dad commander of
the First Kentucky regiment of rebels. The
forces of the . eneiny consisted of three regiments
of infantry, First and Eleventh Kentucky and
Tenth Alabama, with a cavalry regiment and a
battery, all under the command of Col. John H.
Forney, of the Tenth Alabama, Acting Briga
dier General. The dead rebels were left on the
field.
The loss on any side was six killed and eight
wounded, most of whom belonged to the Buck
tails: Colonel Kane received a slight . vrinuni
At nine o'clock our troops had returned to
camp, bringing. in fifty wagon loads of forage.
The regiments of General Ord's brigade were
the Sixth, Ninth, Tenth and Twelfth Permsyl

Who prisoners belong to the different rigi
*ants engaged in the action. Neither are
dressed alike. The clothes they had on are
ragged and filthy. Bach was without any

veketation with three prisoners belonging to the
Tenth Alabama, after they were brought to Gen.
headquarters. They state that their
regiments were, organised seven months ago,—
Fttnnerly they were under command of Gen.
Johniton, but after the battle of Bull run were
transferred to Gen. Bea.nregard's division. Of
the condition of the rebel army they gave the
most deplorable account, confirming the previ
o4 statements received as to thewant of proper
clothing and food, and the general discontent
privailing among the men. The greater part
of ihe army, they say, has gone into winter
quirters at Manassas. Since their connection
