Thom ns At* Howe— : • Important- Information— Tbe Quota of Allegheny county— The Question of •♦Credit*’ Defi nately Settled, etc. Hon. Thomas M. Howe, Chairman of the County Executive Committee, has returned from Harrisburg, where he had a fall and sat isfactory conference with His Exeollency, Governor Curtin, in relation to the number of men which Allegheny county is required to furnish under the late calls for troops. Sev eral very difficult and perplexing questions were to be determined, and we are glad to an noonce that Mr. Howe's mission has been en tirely suooesiful. Governor Curtin has assured the Committee that Allegheny eounty shall receive full credit for any excess of men which she may have furnished, not only under the call which immediately followed the reverses before Ktchmond, but also on the Jirtt call succeed ing the enlistment ot the three months men. In other words, in making up the quota of this county, all the men which we hare sent into the fields since the enlistment of the three months men, will bo credited to us. / there be any excess under the first call, (ancLthero certainly is,) well and good. If not, we must make up the deficiency. This is Justus 1t should be, and just what our people desire. r 1 IS 8G». ,|§ SHADE. 29 7-30 . Lot us pass over the first call, and come to the second. Under this, we are to furnish our proportion of 300,000 men, and fill up the old regiments. The number allotted to as, exohuive of the namber required for tho old regiments, was 1500, and has been raised,, of nine months men. [ln explanation of the small namber assessed upon; us nnder this oall, we may state that there was a mistake •made, which has boon rectified under tbo sab sequent call.] As to tho old regiments, Mr. Howe has ascertained that it will take 1500 men to complete them. From this, we deduct 133 men already mustered Into tho old regi ments, -which leaves 1,367 yet to furnish. Undor present orders, we can reoruit for the old regiments until the Ist of September, but no longer. Now for tho third call, or the draft. Under this order we are required to famish 4,500 men, and but_one week remains in which to reeroit them, the time being limited to tho 22d inst. Suppoeingour account to bo square on the old (or first) call, then we have yet to famish 5,867 men. To ofißef this, we bavo recruited, for three years, a large numbor of : meu, so that, by vigorous exortions, we may escape a draft altogether. Iq the meantime, the United States Mar shal, Mr. Murdoch, is making every prepara tion for a new to a draft. The Committee inform us that the en tire county wIU beeconred by townships, bor oughs and wards, and an enrollment made of all subject to military duty. At the same time, the namber of parsons who have enlisted will be obtained, so far as it is-possible to do so, that the Committee may have somo satisfac tory data as to the number of men already in the field from this county. And if a draft must come, the Governor it determined fAot it thall fall upon fAose te*irdt, boroughe f -tototuhipt :or counties, where the people have not done tKeir duty. This is blghtv important, and should serve to stimulate every district in Allegheny county to renewed exertions.. Those town ships, boroughs or wards,, whioh have not fur nished as many men as their population re quires, will have to prepare for the draft. It will not fail upon those who have done their whole duty.' A word in rcferonco to the bounty. Tho Committee are doing everything in their pow er to provide $5O bounty for every man, and rtriU do so, should they receive tho co-opera tion of the county authorities. Altboagb not positively determined, wc may say that finan cial arrangements are now in progrees which “will accomplish this end, and get rid of tho legal difficulty in the way of a county appro priationor loan. At the same lime, they ap peal earnestly to allwhohavo not yet con tributed to the fund, to do so Immediately. It is necessary to raise $20,000 mote, at a very early period. Thousands of our weal thy citisens have not contributed a dollar. The farmers, many of whom arc abundantly able, have not responded as they should. Lot all«omoupto the work, or the draft will be sure to overtake some ot them. Tho Com mittee an about to issue au appeal on this subject, and wo hop» they wiil speak loud enough, as it would seem that nothing but a thunderbolt would open some mon's purses. Vi d cannot qloso this artiolo without remind ing tho citizens of Allegheny county that they owe mock, Tory much, to the members of the Committee for their exertions in placing our quota in the field. The Governor expressed himself highly pleased with the action of our people, and remarked that previous to the monster war meeting held here, the military spirit was dead—not only in the western part of the State, but in the eastern also;, ana ho dates its revival from that meeting. This is saying a g od deal for Allegheny county, and speaks volumes for tho excellent management of oar Executive Committee. The cllizoDß of Tarentum, oh Friday nigh' last, presented Capt. Homes and Lieut. Coul ter, ol the J. M. Porter Infantry, and Capt. Boyd and Lieut. Hemphill, ef the Tarantum Infantry, each a handsome sword, as a token of their respect and confidence. The. Bar. Simmons made the presentation speech, and the Bev. Bamiey responded in behalf of the officers of the companies. Brief addresses wore then made by J. 21. Porter, Esq., and tbo Bev. Bell, after which the meeting adjourned. These companies were both mainly rtcraitod from Tarentnm and its immediate vicinity, and compose, now, two hundred and sixteen men. On Friday evening, Co. B, .Clark Infantry, was the recipient of an elegant stand of col ors, presented by the Allegheny Greys, (a home guard company, formerly commanded by Capt. Boisol, of the Infantry,) and tho ladies who originally gave it to that company. Jas. Mi. Cooper, Eea., made tho presentation address and Capt. Boisol responded in a happy vein. After the last speech, Jas. McCandlesi, Esq-, made, one even more effective, presenting Capt. B; with $lOO to-procure little comforts for his command. Then followed three cheers for the ladies, tho Greys and Mr. McCandless. On Saturday evening the Casa Infantry, Capt. Gast, were presented with a beautiful stand ot colors by Messrs. James Bono and William Bill. The presentation speech was made by Rev. Mtv Chapman, and was re sponded to, very appropriately, by a member ot the company. : Mr. Bill also made the com* piny a present of a purse of $25, for the pur pose of subsisting the company while It re mains here. Capt. Henry Maxwell and First Lieutenant Thomas Maxwell, ef th 6 Watt and Butohers* Infantry, ware each presented with an excel lent and magnificent sword by tbeir frienda and the cillzths of Allegheny, on Saturday afternoon, on Federal street, near the Dia mond.- Bev. Chapman presented the sword on behalf of the donors in a neatand patriotic speech, whioh was replied to by each of the recipients in a few gracefaland well timed re marks. • Lieut. George W. Ahl was presented by his friends with a richly chased and finely mount ed regulation sword, at the HaysyUlo Water Cure, about six o'clock on Saturday evening. Bsr. W. B. Watkins, of Now Brighton, pre sented the sword on behalf of the donors, whioh was responded to by Bev. J. J-Marke, for Lieut. Ahl. ' Lieut. Robert Woodburn, of Co.

Camp is tbs Field, ) ksab Slacobtkb’b Moustais, Aug. 12. j Edxtora GattUa foel it to be not only my duty, but my plcasuro to testify, through your columns, as to tho good conduot and gallantry of the Allegheny and Pittsburgh boys engaged with me in the late battle of the 9th. I will not enter into particulars of the engagement, as yon- hare probably heard them. I never heard of men standing np to their work better than did oars on Saturday. We were exposed for a long time to the concen trated fire of six rebel batteries, and, before leaving the field, to a sharp fire from the enemy's infantry. My loss is ten killed and wounded, oat of eighty-five men engaged. Iwo were killed, and one very seriously wounded. The re mainder will probably recover. J. H. Sulli van, of South Pittsburgh, was badly wounded by a shell, but will probably get well. Corpo ral Robt. J. Baxter, of Pittsburgh, received a painful around in the hip, but kept his post throughout the engagement. Lieuts. E. K*T Geary, James D. McGill, and acting Lieut. James A. Dunievy, all did nobly, and had many narrow escapes. Sergeants, Corporals, and privates all behaved well, and it would be unjust to particularise. Our loss in horses was large, amounting to seventeen shot, twelve of wbteh were disabled and left on the field. Two of our caissons were disabled by the enemy's shell, and were necessarily abandoned, not, however, until all of the ammunition was expended. They s were all recaptured the uexL day, with the exception of one half ot a caisson, We are again ready for action, but are sadly ia want of men. We trust that Lieut. At well (now recruiting in your city) will be able to fill up tho oommand in a few days. You will ’reecive a report of the killed, -wounded and missing in Gen. Banks' corps B3on.

A. G. Wallace of the United Presbyterian Church, who has taken an active part in arousing the people and in recruiting compa nies ever since the'war began, and whose congregation has given nearly all its young mon to the army, ills remarks were truly excellent and appropriate, and in that deep and affecting manner oharacterlstio: of the speaker. Capt. Bayno replied in behalf of the Lieu tenants in a very happy speech. His mod esty and mildness won the hearts of the peo ple, and hla stirring words nerved them for the sacrifice and sufferings whioh this holy cause demands.

W, T., a member of the 45th Pennsylvania regiment, under (Jen. Burn* aide, lie states thatat Aequia Creek the 45th was ordered to relievo the 05th New York, doing piokot duty bctweeao'tbat point and Fredericksburg. We quote as follows : '‘lt is plainly tq be seen that the rebels have been cheekmated' by tbe moves in this di rection, and it don took like the beginning of the end. "This railroad (from the Potomao to Fred erioksburg) is kept very, busy just now. Troops and store* are oonstantly going for ward. On Monday, the 11th inst y three EplendidJyi equipped batteries went tap. On the following day: tbe Pennsylvania Reserves, who won so bright a name in the battle before Riobmond, were moving towards the Scene of action. [This is very important information, as it confirms the repert that the Reserves bad left the Peninsula and joined Burnside's forces.] "Our. oamp is delightful. We have"plenty of pure water, with a. sufficiency of country produco, e(o. The inhabitants are .Union people, from necessity, but not from choice. Pope's order hits hard but works admirably. Promising to keep you posted of the doings of the grand army, now that 1 am near the field of action, I remain yours, £O., Kier Rrflcey Company B. A few days published a call for vol unteers to join tho S. M. Kier Rifles. The alacrity with which that call was responded to is surprising. company was filled in a. very short time, and filled, too, by the very material that soldier* cun bo made of—men of intelligence, high character and vigorous con stitutions. Tbe great anxiety manifested to join this compaoy'ihas encouraged its project ors to organise a second company, of like character. It is really quite cheering to the «ause of tbe Unioti to see tbe kind of men who are enrolling themselves. Such men enter the army from a conscientious convietion of duty, and not lrom any spirit of adventure, and such mea can be relied on tn any emergency. Company B will bo commanded by Captain Fra’ik Van Girder. Tbe First Lieutenant is J. B. SackelL Both of these officers ere well known la this community as men of intelli gence, high' social; and moral oharaoter, and trae courage and . agreeable manners. Tbo character of tho officers is always a sure index to tbe character of the privates. Men will of course prefer being under those who at home are known to have worth and position, and who are certain to see to the well being of all under their ebargo. We cordially ootnmend .this company as offering rare inducements to those wishing to serve their country. It will also be remembered that this company still oootinne to pay a very liberal Captain's bounty in addition to the other bounties already of fered. Capt. Van Gorder, on Second street, Lieut. Sackett or Wm. Vanklrk, Esq., at Bradley's stove warehouse, corner Wood and Second streots, will give all information de sired. SPECIAL NOTICES. Ws take great{pleasure in recommending the Bov. B. E.

PREPARATIONS I*OR A OBKAT RATTLE. Everything from Pope's army indicates preparations for a desperate straggle. In formation from the best sources confirms the belief that the rebels are pouring heavy rein forcements into Go'rdonsvilie, by railroad, from Richmond. Some estimates place their number, already raised them, at one hundred thousand, and it is generally believed that, having found it impossible to pursue Q«u. McClellan for want of transportation, thoy have resolved to attaok Gen. Pope before ar rangements to support him by our other armies shall have been completed. Gen. Pope holds the line of the Rapidan, along- the north bank of which his whole army, with the exception, of Banks' corps, is [passed. His own headquarters are moved to the front, and the general conviction on the ground is that a speedy activity is probable. The enemy throws his pickets up to the south aide of the Rapidan, and oec&siona! shots are exchanged across the river. THURLOW WEED. Thurlow Weed is understood to have re oelved the renewal of his; informal appoint ment abroad. He is exported to sail for Eu rope shortly. He has been in town for a day or two. COL. COBCORAH. The Corcoran fever pervades everywhere. Crowds have boon thronging bis hotel ever sinoe his arrival, to see (he noted Irishman. He has been oalled for speeches several tltnes as regiments passed by. The President has made him a Brigadier General apd dated his commission back to the date of his capture at Bull Run. His old regiment, wfiloh he was leading at Bull Run when taken prisoner, is to accompany him to New York and partici pate in the grand demonstration there. A grand dinner is to be given to him to-night,- with a serenade, speeches; etc. THE COBCORAH DEMONSTRATION, The Corcoran demonstration to-night was an immense affair. The avenue along the whole front of Willard's hotel, and almost from the corner of tho Treasury bnildingdewo to the lower aide of Fourteenth street was filled with one vast mass of humanity. Tho street cars had to atop, andit was impossible to get through-the street at all, oven on foot. When Col. Corcoran’s old regiment, the fiflth New York, came on the ground the enthusi asm was perfectly uproarious, and when Col. Coooren himself appeared on the stag* the cheering and exoitement were beyond all bounds. f Col. Corcoran's; declaration, that this war might be made anj excellent school, and that he undertook to say there would be no inter ruption when Europe saw the new six hundred thousand come forward. If there was the ▼oioe of such meetings as this it could not fall to bo interpreted as meaning that we would take a hand. Col. Wilcox carried] the crowd away with him by declaring thutitbus far this had been a brainless war; that our eoast expeditions had been ot jectleas and bad accomplished nothing; that the whole war biid been mere blind en ergy on tho part of the people and plandering by the contractors. CoL Corcoran Is to'proceed to New York with bis old 69th regiment, and he promises soon to be In the dele again. His appoint ment as Brigadier Geo >ral will, it is thought, be of immense advsnta ;e to recruiting among the Irish. His dcclan ,tibos, however, about the readinees tho Irishmen would evince to enter in a war with Great Britain, might pos sibly load to tronbld. W. W. T."

Nxw York, Aug. 13 —A letter (rum a sur geon reports that ho saw tho dead bodies of 83 rebel soldiors in one' small oornfield at Baton-Rouge. Lieut.

The rebel wounded state that Gen. Buggies was killed. One of the rebels stated their loss at 800. 1 Nim’s battery saved the day, when Iwo thirds of Its members were on the sick list. The secession residents of Baton Kongo fired on our wounded as they were being brought in. Their houses we e subsequently pulled down by our troops. Gen. Breoktnridge, on the morning of the fight, made a speech, promising his men to have his band? playing in the Btato House at nine o'oloea a^m. Prom Nashville. Aagt 17.—Two bridge! od the Kentucky end Edgefield Railroad were burned to-day by the rebels, and one over the Bed river. The track wo* reported torn op this side of Tallahousa. Two Federal oouriera were eaptured by the guernilae, nine miles South of the oity, last night. Their dispatches and horses were taken from them, when they were released. They report a largeforoe, under Steam, north of Murfreesboro. Col. Miller made an armed reconnolssanoe towards Gallatin, last night, to aaoertain whether this information is cor rect.

Corcoran, Wilcox, and others* Wabbikgtos, Ang. 18 —The demonstration to-night in honor of the release of officer* Coreoran, Wilcox and others, ifes In the high est degree enthusiastic. The avenue in front of their quarters was so densely crowded as to prevent the passage o! the street ear*. The 69ih regiment was present, and was warmly welcomed. The balcsny for the speakers biased with'gas, the burners being so arrang ed as to form the word “ Union ” in mam moth letters. < Hon. Alfred Ely, in addressing his fellow citicons, welcomed Colonel Corcoran and his comrades, and on their behalf he presented to the audience CoL Michael Comoran. The Colonel, advancing to the front, was the re cipient of repeated and deafening oheers. Addressing himself to every officer and mem ber of the 69th Now York Militia, and his fellow, oitisens, he returned his most grateful and heartfelt thanks for the cordial greeting which they had given him and his fellow pris oners, on their return. He returned his the more sincerely, as this demonstration innrked their devotion to the glorious institu tions undor whioh we have the blessing to live. It would be impossible for him to say a sin gle word that would add enthusiasm among the people at the present moment, for he had seen the evidence yesterday and to-day of the people rushing from the States agata to ad vance and drive back into Dixie Land those traitors who would destroy our government, and tread under foot the flag of~our Union. He had never been among those who thoogbti lightly of this matter from the beginning. I The gentleman who had addressed theassom- I blage, Mr. Ely, knew when he was in prison ■ with him that he had hoped a million of men ! would spring to the defence of the country, J because be believed it was the shortest and ! best means of orushing the rebellion at once. ' Tbe country is at least alive to the struggle, and will give two millions of men and every dollar in their possession to put down this wicked rebellion, and preserve the glorious institutions handed down by our forefathers. You here have not seen any of the horrors of war. You aie not ruled by military des potism as those among whom we have traveled, teen and conversed with.— They are suffering the worst despotism on earth, and we owe it to them to go to their rescue. Ho bad come from North Carolina. Although that State has thirty thousand men in the field, one half of them,if free to speak, would apeak in favor of returning to the Union, but thelrState pride, and blind love for State institutions, will cause them to fight i well in the ranks, until we oan give them as surance wo will send to them, as well as to the other States, a sufficient number of Union men, around whom they can rally. He had! much to say to tbe old 69th. He was rejoiced to see them here again. He was rejoiced to bear that they were again in the field. He was rqjoioed again to see that old green flag, saved from the battle of .Manassas, (cheers,) mingled again with tbe stars and stripes, and the members of the regiment .were. willing, j he knew, to, lay down their lives to 1 uphold the flag ,of their glorions oountry, i our term of servioe has, he said, nearly ex- i pirod. You will be returning to New York, i bat not, I hope,* to remain there. [Voices, 1 “No, never; we will go with you again/'] Some must from necessity remain, bnt others a solemn duty, throwing aside personal con sideration again to enter the service, and re- 1 main in the army till the last blow is struck, furies, we wilt]. 1 I ask no man to go where I! em not willing to go. [Applause.] I never ask any man to move one inch nearer to tbo enemy than I move myself. 1 trust when I return to New York I will not remein there ! many days, but have the old 69th again to I join me, and take the field with more of my countrymen in the endeavor to preserve th* country for our people. [Applause, and voices, we are with you.] Gentlemen, Ido not wish to detain youlong, but will say this is a splendid sohool for mili-. ury training. [Laughter.]. Archbishop Hughes told them so in Ireland. I think there will be do intervention. If-there should wo will try our hand at it. [Applause, and ories of “good/’] I will say ircm this spot, without fear of oontradiction, we can prevent them from doing any trouble this side the Atlanfio. [A voice, which was heartily re sponded “and the other side too/'] The work of the hour is to be done. We most go at it with a will, and when that is over wo will make an opportunity for ourselves elsewhere. This last' remark was greeted with ap plause. Throughout his remarks, tbe dense auditory, by frequent interruptions, express ed their approbation, of the sentiment* he enunciated. Col. Wilcox, of Michigan, was next Intro duced. Ho was warmly welcomed. He said be bad done uoi more than hit duty. Inci dentally alluding to tbo bogus ohivolry, be said in the last building in which thoy were oonflned, there were twenty-nine officers, as gallant a* ever fought They were oonflned in the worst and dirtiest room of tbe dirtiest building in the dirtiest oity in the Union, without blanket, or cup, or' plate, knifo or fork, and refused an opportunity to purchase the commonest mod the meanest necessaries of life. [V-oioes— I “EeUliato."] This is a specimen of the chivalry which ’ claims to be the flower of the world, and who would trample under foot our freo and be loved government. Falso hearted traitors. They would not hesitate to commit lesser crimes. It Is timo that we should put forth the strength of the nation to control. Ooneentrate and grasp all the resources of the government in such a manner as to orush out those men and drive them into the Gulf of Mexloo. [Applause.] The government must employ all its resources in united defence and strike at the main arteries of the monster which has risen to swallow oar liberties. ; Without easting reflection npon any military man, it appeared to him that this has been a brainioss war. ' [That's so, and laughter.] * The means of the country have been wasted in isolated plaoes, and contractors have car ried on this war. The blood of our men, tbe groans of the wounded,the tears of the orphan and the walls of the widow, have been coined into money. Men without patriotism • and wisdom have urged plans unmUltary, and which have not aooomplishsd anything. Ex peditions have been got up to wipe the out side of the platter on the coast, while there are plaoes wbioh could be stroek and rapidly terminate'the campaign. This is common sense. [A voice, “That’s so/'] We have a head of the army who standi first In the nation of broad and comprehensive views, and who has distinguished himself as a sol-' dier. Everything proceeding from him has a great design. Let .little results, little politi cians go. [Laughter and applause.] Ho believed the rebellion- is greater - now than it was six months ago, and he gave his to show that so Car from the resources of the enemy being less they were greater then they were. Then everything was lying' around loose, bnt tho rebels.have organised and systemlsed their plane. He would like to see every man, womaa and child engaged in this war. We most rise and pat down this rebellion or It will put down us. His remarks wore applauded throoghout. Col. -Bowmen, Major Vodges and others then addressed the assemblage. General Order Issued.
