ASSISTANT ADJUTANT GENERAL OP
TIM UNITED STATES.
A. K. Meatless has just been appointed by
the President, Assistant Adjutant General of
the United States, with the rank of major, and
detailed for special duty in Pennsylvania,
where he will be assigned the service of ar
ranging such defences in the state as the emer
gency of the hour may demand, or the augment
ing importance the crisis suggest. For several
weeks past, Major McClure has been sedulous
ly engaged in perfecting the details for the ap.
proaching draft, and in lending such aid in the
military organization of the state, a was deem
ed essential by the Governor for the entire suc
cess of all oar operations. In his new position,
as Assistant Adjutant General, Major McClure
will have a more extensive field of labor,
but will encounter no responsibility which he
is not amply able to assume. It is a duty for
which be Is peculiarly fitted, because few men
excel him in coolness of j adg ment or promptness
of action, while the force of his great energy
will hurry forward all the movements which
come within his command, at once with eland
ty and dispatch. It is for these reasons that
we congratulate the service and the common
wealth of Pennsylvania on the appointment of
Major McClure.
OUR THEORY OF IHE POSITION.
Amid the startling rumors which disturb the
equanimity of the town and excite the fears of
the timid, our theory of the position may not
be inappropriate at the present hour. The fact
that the rebels are in Maryland is stale news.
They are there and have been welcomed by the
traitors in that state, upon whose zeal and in
domitable perseverance in keeping Jeff. Davis
advised of the force and movements of the
Federal army, the rebellion has derived its
mainand most effective means of success. What
the conspirators of the cotton states possessed
of bloody desperation and villianous purport,
the sly traitors and courtly scoundrels of Bal
timore, rivaled by eveadropping in the federal
capital, suborning weak, and treason-tainted
subordiates, and gaining information thus of
every plan and movement of the Federal gov
ernment. By these operations, and with this
aid the traitors have been enabled to reach their
present position in Maryland. What do they in
tend to do there? is the interrogatory which
lingers on many anxious lips. Where will they
hurl their thunderbolts of war ? is a conjecture
full of apprehension and alarm. Will they
march their victorious cohorts into Pennsyl
vania, ravaging the country as they go, de
stroying and devouring whatever comes with
in their reach ? We think that such is not the
intention of the rebel leaders. They aim at
the Capital, pey desire to possess the
archives of the Government and seize its mag
nificent buildings, and then demand their recog
'Atilt= from the nations of the world. Their
plea will be that - they had refrained from con
quest, although the path was open to its realiza
tion. They will assert to the governments of
to world that though entitled to vengeance
and almost induced to retribution they had ab
stained from both, contented to achieve their
nationality and showing to the world the in
vincibility of their arms and the superiority of
their people. Of course, the proviso to all this
le the contingency of rebel success from their
present position in Maryland. Meanwhile it
must be be understood that the Government is
on the alert, that our forces are extending their
energies, that the eyes of vigilent leaders are
upon our enemies, and that the victory is as
Bare to crown our banner with its halo as it is
to crimson those of treason with its slaughter
and its blood. We do not urge this theory ae
any sounder than others which have been laid
down within the last twenty-four hours, but
give it merely as that which strikes , the Tux
waltz as being plowable.
Lnws. Coz. Mama; of the 84th, (Murray's
old regiment,) has at last resigned, and in the
line of promotion, that worthy and brave offi
am, Major Thomas R. Craig, of Blair county,
will become the Lieutenant Colonel.
lairtrairox, Wiz., is about sixty miles from
Baltimore by the railroad line, and forty over.
land from Washington, by way of Rockville,
Iharseetewa and Melamine, Maryland.
NEW YORK AND PENNSYLVANIA
The following correEpondence will exhibit a
difference in the positions of New Yurk and
Pennsylvalda, so far as relates to the relative
effectiveness of these states in the struggle to
suppress rebellion. Pennsylvania has not with
drawn a single regiment from the field sines
the three months' men were mustered out of
service ; while the recruiting for the regi
ments in the field, from this state, is to-day,
almost as active as it was when those regiments
were organized. Our old regiments - aredaily
receiving accessions by hundreds, and as the
feeling is enlarged by the impending crisis, the
veteran regiments of the old Keystone State
will soon again be raised to their maximum
strength. •
But let the reader peruse the following cor
respondence. We print it without comment on
the rebuke with which it visits a spirit
of arrogance which has already been productive
of much mischief, but which, hereafter, will
not dare again to push its false , claims to merit :
NEW YORK, CRAM. OW COMMERCE ROOM, t
September 2d, 1862.
Hon. EDWIN M. STANTON,
War Department, Washington :
Our National War Committee has just passed
a resolution earnestly recommending to the
Department to recall the militia regiments
from this city, which have recently returned
from Washington.
We believe they will go at a moment's no
tice.
This committee will advance any expense
necessary. Please reply.
GEORGE OPDTKE, Chairman.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 2, 1862

Your dispatch of this date has been received,
and referred to the General-in-Ohief for an•
ewer.
(Signed) EDWIN M. STANTON,
Secretary.
Weszarrororr, Sept. 2, 1862
To Hon. D. D. FEED and others :
The New York militia regiments were re
quested to remain when danger was more
imminent than at present, but declined to do so.
Under these circumstances, they will not be
recalled. (Signed)
H. W. Emus,
General-in-Chief.
Ex-Gov. Lows, of Maryland, according to
one of the rumors from that state, has been
appointed Provisional Governor, by Jeff, Davis.
Lowe will have a good time filing his capital,
when the rebels retire from Maryland, as they
assuredly will before many days.
In regard to Maryland, it is not out of place
to mention the plausible fact that, outside of
Baltimore, the mass of the people are honestly
attached to the government. Those in favor
of secession have long since left the state, with
the belief that Maryland was hopelessly wedded
to the 'Union. They went into the rebel army,
and have either paid the forfeit of their treason,
or have become so scattered as to be unable,
at least immediately, to wield much influence
over the destinies of the state. If danger is
to be apprehended in Maryland, it is more from
the rebels in Baltimore than those who have
lately crossed the Potomac and invaded that
state.
FROM TENNESSEE.
Correopmdence of MO Teleg,aph.]
CAMP NEAR MANCHMTER, TENNEBBBE, }
August 18th, 1862.
We have passed through many and varied
scenes atcd hardships. .Since my last communi
cation I have experienced "grim visaged war"
in all its stern reality, and now we find oursel
ves in an little isolated village surrounded by a
dense wilderness of "black jacks" the favorite
haunts of "Bush Whackers" and Guerillas.
It was here that Capt. Davis and fourteen of
his brave men (whilst on picket duty,) were
surrounded by four hundred. Guerrilla cavalry
and captured. It was at this place that these
thieves and murderers rendesvonzed, and it is
a satisfaction to state that here we captured
one thousand barrels of prime wheat flour be
longing to the southern army. There is an
important military move being made in and
around this post. Gen. Wood IS occupying
McMinnville and its surroundings with twenty
thousand men. Gen. Shoeph is at Pelham
with his brigade, Gen. Wagnor is here with five
thousand troops, and Tullahoma is garrisoned
by three thousand and Murfreesboro by forir
thousand, all of which are so concentrated that'
in twenty-four hours march they could form a,
conjunction against any forces that the rebels
could send to Kentucky or Tennessee, or flank
their army in case Richmond is evacuated and
they attempt to make one of their "masterly
retreats." The experienced can see at a glance
the importance of the position. All movements
are kept strictly private, even Brigadier Gen
erals being hi the dark until they receive
marching orders.
The guerillas under Morgan and Forrest are
doing an immense damage to the citizens-of
Kentucky and Tennessee ; they are actively
employed in murdering and and robbing them
indiscriminately. Burning bridges, destroying
railroads and laying waste the country where
ever they can with safety to themselves march
—they never attack an equal force, but pounce,
down upon a few hundred men with their
whole force, (say five thousand mounted men,)
kill, capture and parole them, and then off to
some haunt of safety, there to remain until
their friends and spies—who are legions—giVe
them the necessary information when and
where to make another raid.
The policy of the Government in relation to
the employment of slaves in the army is hailed
as a bright harbinger of future success, by every
officer and private and every true lover of the
country. It will put an end to this unholy
rebellion much sooner than bullets and bay
onets, and in the end speak in tones loud enough
to rebel masters' ears, teaching them that the
Constitution of the 'United States must and
shall be obeyed, its laws be respected and rigid
ly enforced. The day is not far distant when
the old bell on the sacred hall of Independence
in our own old state will proclaim, (as did the
one which now adorns that sacred building,)
"Liberty throughout the land." Great will be
the joy throughout the whole civilized world,
when we can honorably sheath the sword, and
with a clear conscience feel and know that we
have done our duty to our God, to posterity;
and to our beloved country.
It is a proud satisfaction to be a Pennsylva
nian in this war. Her sons have done nobly
and covered themselves with imperishable
glory. Too much praise cannot be given his
Excellency Gov. Curtin, his name should and
will be emblazoned on the heart of every
patriot in the land, and to his credit be it said,
he has done has duty and done it nobly, and will live
long in the memories ,of every soldier from the
State. Our State has but asmall representation
in this, the department of the Ohio, five regi
ments in all—the 77rh, 78th, 79th, infantry,
and the 7th and 9th cavalry—all of which have
done excellent service—and here allow me,
without wishing to detract one iota from the
merits of any one of the above regiments, Men
' tion the 79th, commanded by C01..H. A. Ham
bright, it is acknowledged by all military men
PtnnoVtufilfla fait gititgrapt' autsbav aittintoon, Septembq 9, 1862
to be the finest looking and best drilled and
disciplined regiment in the service. They have
earned unfading laurels, and• gained, 1111 envia
ble narwlyberever duty has bitlled thent. The
perfectioti of their drill end the soldierly bear
ing of the men have made them famous throng
out this whole army. Every one both - citizen
and soldier have something to say' prabrwerthy
of the 79th, Col. Hambright, and his officers
have labored long and hard, and are worthy of
the highest commendation. Col. H. has been
acting brigadier general Since last spring, and
has not only shown himself to be an excllent
colonel but a superior general, and had his ad
vice been taken, the disgraceful 'affair at Mar
fresboro never would happened, and to day
we would be holding other important posts now
in the possession of the rebels. We want more
such men as Hambright here. His active mili
tary experience commenced on the fields of
Mexico ; he POssesses all the necessary requi
sites of a first class brigadier ; thorough
education and genius ; a good sound judg
ment, indefatigable perseverance and bravery
undisputed. His appointment to a brigadier
ship would give the very greatest satisfaolion
to all military men in this department, and
would be a credit to the service.

After a battle of one hour's'duration, the re

SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS REL
ATIVE TO THE DRAFT.
Sia :—You will herewith receive a copy of
General Orders No 121, issued by the War De
partment, giving particular inEtructions as to
the care and organization of drafted men, or of
volunteers received in lieu of drafted men.—
You will examine the orders carefully and carry
out their directions faithfully.
The quota for your county to fill the several
requisitions made upon this State by the War
Department, is men
You will apportion this quota to the differ
ent townshil s, boroughs and wards in your
county, in accordance with the enrolment made
by the Marshals, of men subject to military
duty. It will not be made however, until the
appeals are held, and the claims to exemption
are decided, as it cannot be justly apportioned
until the exact number of men actually subject
to military duty in each district is ascertained.
When the proper proportion of each sub-di
vision of the county is determined, in accord
ance with the men actually subject to military
duty, you will ascertain from the enrollment,
the number of men each district has now in
the service, and credit it therewith on its
quota. In this credit, men enlisted in the
regular army, in the marine service, black
smiths, bridge builders, carpenters, teamsters,
clerks, &c., and men enlisted in regiments or
companies organized under the laws of other
States, are not to be embraced. Yon will
credit only for men enlisted in the volunteer
regiments and companies recognized and com
missioned by the Governor of this State.
You will also observe Carefully, to guard
against the same men being credited in two
districts. In some instances, young men whose
parents reside in one district, have been labor
ing or temporarily residing in another, and
there enlisted; and they may be credited on
the enrolment in both. When you detect any
such case, give the credit to the district where
the person enlist was pursuing his lawful call
ing or residing at the time he enlisted, with
out regard to the residence of his parents.
If any districts in your county have furnish
ed more than their quotas, you will ascertain
the aggregate of such excess, and apportion it
as a credit t I the other districts of the county,
in accordance with the enrolment.
If any companies or squads of men in your
county have been mustered into the service of
the United States si • cu the enrolment was made,
you will,. if possible, procure copies of the rolls
of such companies or squads, and credit them
to the proper districts in which the men resided.
Although the orders of the War D, partment
required the enrolment of all men between the
agesof eighteen and forty-five years, the militia,
laws of this State exempt from military duty, all
persons under twenty•one years. You will there
fore, when holding appeals, erase from the list,
all persons who establish the fact to your satis
faction, that they are under twenty-one years.
You can examine such persons under oath,
when you are not otherwise satisfied.
You will at once give notice by hand-bills,
that on the 15th day of September, you will
pre Geed to draft for each district, the number
of men necessary to fill its quota, unless the dis
trict furnishes the men as volunteers on or be
tore that day. State in your band-bills dis
tinctly, that each district can offer volunteers
to fill its quota on the day the draft is to be
made, and thus obviate the draft entirely.—
Such volunteers may be offered you at any time,
but you are not authorized to subsist them until
the day fixed for the draft.
Shpuld you find it impossible to make the
draft on the 15th of September, you will notify
the Governor by mail or telegraph, as may be
necessary, and name the earliest day on which
it can be made. Upon satisfactory assurance
that due diligence will not enable you to make
the draft on that day, the time will be extend
ed, but the extension will not exceed five days.
For special instructions as to bow you will
proceed to make the draft, you are referred to
General Order No. 99, of the War Department,
1 1 already furnished you.
All necessary expenses to complete or facili
tate the draft,lepluding printing, clerk hire,
&c., will be paffilltry flittiElnited States govern
ment. Such expenses will be distinctly stated
in your bill, to be made out in duplicate against
the United States, verified by affidavit, and re
tared to this office for approval.
You will have printed as many copies of the
following notice as you believe may be needed
in your county, and deliver one, with hie name
written therein, to each man exempted on the
grounds of conscientous scruples.
To
that having been exempted from military duty
because of conscientious scruples against bear
ing arms, in accordance with section 2, article
VI of the Constitution of Pennsylvania, you
will be held liable to pay to the Commonwealth
such sum as "an equivalent for personal ser
vice" as the Legislature may direct by a law
enacted for the purpose.
