SOLDIERS' RIGHT TO VOTE.
Election Tuesday, Aug. 2, 1864.
The Rebel Read.
The Hagerstown Herald and Torch of yester
day has the following :
On Sunday evening a rumor was put in cir
culation that our forces were fighting, bait
has since been ascertained that the fighting
commenced at Bunker Hill on Sunday; our
forces driving the enemy down to Winchester.
Here they were largely reinforced, and the
fighting was renewed on Sunday morning,
wh n our men were overpowered, the enemy
outnumbering them three to one.
After a severe fight we were driven back to
Bunker Hill, and from there to Martinsburg:
Our forces again formed line of battle, on the
farm of Mrs. Faulkner, near the latter place, '
with the right wing swung round to Falling
Waters. Here a battle ensued in which our
men were successful, driving the enemy be
yond Martinsburg, which our forces now oc
cupy. Up to this time (Tuesday morning)
no firing has been heard. . -
The, losses in the different battles which
have taken place since Sunday morning are
said to have been large. The reports, how
ever, are so contradictory and so unreliable,
that we deem it improper to report them. In
the fight on Sunday, at Winchester. it is re.
ported that General Mulligan was killed.
The condition of attire at the time of going
to press are more hopefuL How long they
will continue so, depends whether or not our
forces have been reinforced.
LATER.
Gen. Averill has not been killed or wounded,
as was at first supposed. He retreated with
out the loss of a wagon or gun and in good
order. Our friends seem to be satisfied with
the situation of matters, and we deem it ad
visable to say nothing further about military
movements at present.
Volunteer Regtnnenits for. One Year
We have just been informed that the War
Department has granted the State Govern
ment authority to raise new regiments for one
year, the men thus recruited to go to the ac
count of the quota on the draft for fire hun
dred thousand troops, according as they are
credited to each locality by themselves.
Acting Adjutant General W. W. Irwin has
been mainly instrumental in urging this mea
sure, through the State authorities, on the
War Department, and after .telegraphing. t^
the Secretary of War yesterday; the authority
to raise new regiments was at once granted.
By this plan localities can fill their quotas,
and volunteers, unlike drafted men, instead
of being scattered through skeleton and deci
mated companies and regiments, will consti
tute new organizations, officered by men with
whom they are familiar and in whom they
have confidence. The inducements under
this system, to volunteer, cannot fail to fill
up the quotas of a large majority of all the
districts in the State, so that by a proper dis
play of energy, the draft may be dispensed
with in such localities.
—As soon as the necessary instructions are
received from the War Department, the Gov
ernor will issue his proclamation—and it is
presumed that the same regulations fixing
heretofore the quottis upon which commis
sions were issued, will govern and apply to
the new organizations about to be made fot
one year. Tn the meantime we earnestly
urge the raising of these new regiments upon
the active military men in the State. At pre-.
sent there are many good - men In the State
who have been patiently waiting for the oppor
tanity thus presented, and if these act prompt
ly in conjunction with Acting Adjutant Gen
eral Irwin, we have every reason to believe
that Pennsylvania will fill her quota of the
five hundred thousand men without the ope
ration of a draft.
Ir TEE AMENDMENT TO 'TAD CONSTTITTION,
extending the elective franchise to the sol
dier, is defeated at the ballot-box on Tuesday
next, the fact will be an encouragement to the
Men now opposing that measure, to seek the
abridgment of the elective franchise, as it is
now exercised by the laboring masses, of the
laud. One of the gteat complaints of the
slaveholders now in rebellion has ever been,
that the labor of the North, possessing an in
income of little, ore than one dollar
per day, was equally powerful in its influence
in the Government, with that of the citizen
producing his revenues by hundreds of dol
lar; per day. The slaveholder has always
urged, that this labor should not only be dis
franchised, but that it should be enslaved.
Defeat the right of a soldier to vote, and you
pave the way to the disfranchisement of the
laborer and the mechanic. The principle is
the same. If the man who is willing to peril
his life in defence of the soil and the free in
stitutions of the country, is not entitled to a
voice in the operations of his Government,
he who has no title to that soil, and depends
stone ou the labor of his hands . for his sub
sistence, is equally in danger of being di.
vested of all his franchises as a freeman. Let
the laborer and the mechanic remember these .
facts, and stand by those whO are now stand.:
tug by the safety of the Government.
DEATHS IN THE CoNFEDESATE ARMY.--Ac
cording to a Richmond paper, the number of
deaths in the Confederate Army reported to
the Second Auditor's office at Richmond, up
to December 31, 1863,_ is 57,505, distributed
among the States as follows: Georgia 9,504;
Alabarna, 8,987; North Carolina, U6l; Texas,
0,377; Virgin* '5,943; Mississippi, 5,367;
South Garai* PH; LoilV** , 7l; - Ar ,

Contraction
It seems to us, looking at things in a plain
ommon sense way,that contraction is a linen
ial duty'at this time. Expansion is the evil
under which ws, suffer. It cannot be reme
died by mdthdriiveing the Government green
backs, beau, the void would be,immedi
ately supplied bk bank paper. How, then,
shall we accomplish the object. -
First. By universal retrenchment in public
and - private. As the speculators have run up
the prices of everything ruinously, let us dis
pense with every article we can, and Use as
little as possible of what we Must.
Second. By paying cash for what we buy,
and avoiding the use of credit in any shape.
Third. By reducing business generally. to a
cash basis, as a matter of present unavoidable
necessity.
Fourth. By withdrawing capital from all
enterprises of a recent or uneatablished char
acter, before a crash comes, when it will be
impossible to do so. This may occasion, pre
sent sacrifice to some extent, but it hadbetter
be sustained now than to Wait until it may be
much greater, • , •
Fifth. By selling out fancy stocks gene
rally, and putting the money in Government
bends.
Sixth. By throwing Into the market at once
all the gold hoarded or held for. investment.
If held much longer the loss will be serious.
Within a year the pribe Of gold cannot fail to
sink one hundred per cent.
Seventh. By doing. •no building whatever
and making'no Improvements until the cost
of labor and materials shall fall. Tle coun
try can do without new, buildings until this
war. 'is !over.
Flght4L By,giviug the, Government , securi- .
ties the pieferenoe over all other investments.
They really are better, and if new enterprises
have tempted us:by larger. profits. the risk of
ultimate loss is not to be lost sight of.
What, shall we gain by these ? We shall get
more men for the army and more money for
the treasury. We shall reduce the cost of
living to reasonable rates, and thus enable
people to sustain better the burdens of Gov
ernment. We shall restore trade and finance
to a healthy condition, explode the corporate
bubbles which distract everything, and im
prove the prospeots of all really sound and
reliable concerns.
THE FIRST AncaNDMENT provides that all
qualified Odors, who may be absent from
their homes in the military service of this
State or of the United States, shall bo enti
tled to vote at all elections, as fully as those
who may lave remained at home. That this
is a most just and righteous proposition, no
one can be found tb publicly deny, It is the
very least we out do for the brave spirits who
are now standing between the country and
the hosts of a destroying enemy.
The Second Amendthent provides that no
bill shall be passed by ,the, Legislattkre in
cluding more than one subject, which; shall
be clearly expressed in the title. This is in
tottat,a to prevent tit,. wytitcm or .10g-rot/mg--
that prevails so muchstHarrishtut - hyawhich
laws are often. iemnggled - througth in such a
way that the fact is not discovered until itis
too late. - All honest, fair-dealing people
ought to vote for this amendment.
The Third Amendment enacts that the Le
gislature of the State shall pass no bill con
ferring powers or priirileges upon any person
or' corporation where the authority to do so
already exists in the Courts. This amend
ment, if adopted, will strike off at once a
great source of corruption and bad legislation:
It should be ratified most emphatically.
ONLY WANTED TO GET Spit& —lt may not
have occurred to a majority of our readers
that the late self-constituted Peace Commis
sionets bad something else in view than mere
ly to learn what propositions would be so
gelled to by the Federal - Government for the
Cessation of hostilities. It is known that
Messrs. Clay, Thoropson: and Olnutead have
been sojourning for some lime.past in Eu•
rope, and were probablydeairous of returning
to their own postlessioris iir the`Southern Con
federacy. Under the prisent condition of
naval /drain along the coast they very proper
ly anticipated that it would be difficult to ew
complish their.Sbject by that route r and their
ingenuity Ws4 .taxed to dis4over some, ether
method of ingress. It was, we suppose, fi
nally decided to visit the Canada shore at Ni
agara, make a proposition to treat for Pezice,
go to Washingten, learn what terms would
acceptable, then be 'sent across the -lines to
Richmond, and thence—proceed quietly to
their respective residences. The whets thing,
however, proved a 'failure, and the ye4uving
tourists are certainly left in an unoomfoitable
fix. "that very short, but appropriate epistle
of the President, headed "To Whom it may
Concern," was blight upon their hopes, and
destroyed all their calculations. . •

ourszersbrr or THE SOLDIER are -centered in
the maimed and wounded Men who now cc:
eupy the honorable places in our homes and
our business marts. Whenever a'copperhead
traitor indulges in his sophistry' o disprove
the right of the soldier to a vote; the only
reply necessary is to point him to a wounded
soldier; and then ask whether such as he or
those who 'are passing through 4he danger
which hif• incurred, are not entitled to the
highest rank and privileges of citizenship.
The base wretches who would deny a soldier
every right of citizenship, should be tied to
the bodies of the rebel dead, and buried in
the same disgraceful ditch.

The Richmond Enquirer, a few months age,
very explicitly laid down the terms upon which'
the rebels would conclude a peace with the
Government of the United States. They, were
these: •,
"Recognition by the enemy of the inde-
pendence of the Confederate States. •
Withdrawal of Yankee forces from every
foot of Confederate ground, including Ken.
tucky and Missouri.
Withdrawal of Yankee soldiers from Mary
land, until that State shall decide, by e free
vote, whether she shall remain in the old
Union, or ask admission into the Confede
racy.
Consent on the part of the Federal Govern
ment to give up to the Confederacy its pro
portion of the navy as it stood at the time of
secession,or to pay for the same.
Yieldin up all pretensions on the part of
the Federal Government to that portion of the
old territories which lie west of the Confed
erate States.'
An equitable adjustment, on the basis of
our absolute independence and equal rights .
of all accounts of public debt and public .
/ands, and the advantages arising from for
eign treaties.
These provisions, we apprehend, comprise
the minimum of what we must require before
we lay down our arms. That is to say, the
North must yield all-we nothing."
Are these the "terms of peace" which Geo.
Sanders, Jacob 'Thompson, C. O. Clay, etc.,
have come to the Clifton House to "negoti
ate" with pilgrim Copperheads? Or has Gen.
Grant brought the Richmond powers down
from the "high horse" of their arrogant self : .
confidence ? If the latter, had'nt we better
wait a littje to see whether this "uncondi
tional surrender" man of ours may not fetch
them clear down to their knees? And if the
former, had'nt we better hang the dirty dogs
who dare talk such "terms" with rebel emis
saries !

says that on the 15th a detachment of the 10th
Illinois, 280 strong, entrenched near Searcy,
Arkansas, were surrounded,- and attacked by
Shelby's rebel command, numbering 1500. A.
portion of the Federals, after a desperate fight,
succeeded in cutting their way out, but the
remainder, about 120, were either killed,
wounded or captured.

THENEW RAID INTO MARYLAND:

THE PROBABLE TRUTH.
BAnrucoan, July 26.
It is extremely difficult to obtain any an.
thentic information relative to affairs on the
Upper Potomao,.and of the rebel movements
in the valley.
By far the greater part of the rumors and
even positive statements hourly putin circula
tion here-are evidently false, and therefore not
worth repeating:; ,
From all the information thus far obtained,
it is believed it will be found that the rebel
force resting in the valley and reported at
Martinsburg and other points, is none other
than the recent raiding force, which, finding
they were no longer pursued by any large
force, suddenly retraced their steps and fell
upon our small force under General Crook,
with the object of driving him back beyond
the Potomac,and thus freeing the valley
from Federatroops, enabling the rebels to
gather in the crops of the valley, so vastly
important to Lee's army. Doubtless they
propose at the same time doing all the mis
chief they can north of the Potomac), and
may, it is thought, attempt a raid in the
southern counties of Pennsylvania. -
It is believed to-night that the wild stories,
so extensively circulated here last night and
to-day, of disaster to our foroee by encoun
tering this rebel advance, have little founda
tion in fact.
The extent of the , news, it is believed, will.
be found to be that General Orook, was after a
sharp contest, compelled to fall back before's,
superior force, with no serious loss.
The reported loss of guns does not appear
to mt. cur-luisthiniz more than rumors, and
we have now counter reports that he saved
all his guns. .
The telegraph line is working west as far as
Harper's Ferry, but it is in the exclusive use
of the military authOrities. Trains are rip'.
ning SEifely to Frederick and Harper's Ferry.
There is no excitement here, and very little
apprehension, though, of coarse, all proper
precautionary measures are in progress..•

- THE PUBLIC DEBT
The official statement of the public debt,
as appears by the record to-day, shows the
amount outstanding bearing interest in coin,
8830,867,842, or a deficiency less than the
amount stated on the 19th inst. of $731,000,
the'interest, being $52,623,281. The amount
of debt bearingintereat in lawful money is
8404,553,520, or nearly 81,500,000 more than
in the previous statement, with an aggregate
lawful interest of $21,027,000. The debt
bearing no interest is $515,732,032, and the
debt on which interest has ceased is $370,170.
The recapitulation shows the aggregate
amount outstanding to be $1,805,523,565,
With interest in both gold and lawful money
, qf •$73„650,530. The principal is $9,320,00 0
more t han in the last statement. The unpaid
requisitions are 877;700,000, and the amount
in the tliaitit7 nearly 815,000,000.
