For the information of the public we Ova place to the following letter, address ed by Edward Uampbell, Jr., to the Conn. ty Commissioners arid the reply of the latter: Pirreaohow, July 12, 1861. To the Commisei4mera of Allegheny County: GrairromEN :—I learn from your pub lished correspondence with gentlemen ac ting for the Committee of Public Safety, that you will levy a tax of two mills on the dollar of the taxable property of the county, for the purpose of affording relief to the 0 tiles of volunteers, unless the people of the • • , before the 25th inst., should order othe As it will be impossible for the people of +.O County to learn your purpose, or to act on the subject before the day named; and as your action appears t 3 be in some degree influenced by the importunities of the Committee of Public Safety; I deem it proper to advise you that at the meeting of the Committee on to-morrow (Saturday afternoon,) an effort will be made to show that the proposed levy will not be needed; that the tax already levied and now partly collected will be amply sufficient, alter de fraying all ordinary expenses of the county, to enable you and the judges to furnish all the relief asked by the Committee; and I respectfully ask your aid, at the meeting of the Committee tomorrow, in presenting the facts to those urging the levy. ' If I correctly understand the law, you can grant the required relief out of any money now in tne treasury, or already levied and to come in; and this relief is in no manner contingent on the levy of the special tax, which another section of the het authorizes in cases—as I suppose—only where enough has not already been levied If I am mistaken, either as to the pro vision of the act, or as to the sufficiency of ;the amount levied, of curse my objection to a further levy most fall—for no one will besitite About supplying the families of thostiVlmi:fight our battles. But if there is already & sufficient amount levied, and if the , law permits you to grant the neces. say relief out of thus amount, I trust that both you and the Committee of Public Safety will concur with me in the opinion that the present is no time for increasing - 11 T h -N of our people, even for the patri otic purpose referred to, if that purpose can hens well accomplished without addi • tional taxation. I am inforaied that but very few mem bers of the Committee usually attend its Eiatarday meetings; but we, may on a sub ject involving a tax of fifty thousand dol lars, probably get enough present to au ttiorize is change of their request for addi tional taxation, if we can satisfy them that it is not needed—or if the general Com mittee will not act, possibly its Executive Committee, through whom most of the business is done, may give some attention to the matter. But as the meetings and proceedings of the Executive Committee are secret, I am not oarlain that we can be heard in it. It can do thrharm, however, to try. Your statement of oar county finances published last fall, demonstrates, I think, that a further levy is not necessary. May I expect _your co-operation in an attempt to satisfy either the public or e ri. idte-Committee of Safety, that such is the fact ? — reltms, respectfully, EDWARD CAMPBELL, Jr. 00.1LMISSIOISTERB ° OFFICE, ALLhOHENT Co , Pittsburgh, July 12. 1861. 1110.8118. EDITOMI:—.In answer to the above would say that, according to our statement published last fall, we supposed that a levy of seven mills on the dollar would pay off the debts and meet the ordi nary expenses of the county. But owing to the number of men that Lave left the county, and the hardness of the times, we believe it will take all that will be collected of the eight mill tax levied this year to meet the demands that will be made on the Treasury for the ordinary expenses and debts of the county. Yet if it could be clearly shown that a sufficient portion of the present levy would be left for the put , . pose aforesaid, after paying the debts and ordinary expenses of the county, none would be ruore willing than we to comply with the request of the above correspon dent.

A most unexpected meeting of a father with his eon, who was sapposed to have been dead several years, occurred at the railroad depot yesterday morning. Three companies of the United States Cavalry, from the Western frontier, were waiting fur the departure of the train for Pitts burgh. The men were lounging about the depot, improving to the utmost the brief relaxation from duty afforded by their journey Eastward. One of the troopers, passing along the 0. & P. side of the build ing, came suddenly upon an old man whose lace seemed familiar. The trooper asked one of the depot men who the old man w s, and was told his name was Wren. "Wren!" exclaimed the soldier, with an expletive more forcible than elegant,—" he's my father I" The soldier rushed up to the old man, grasped his hand and asked him if he did not know his son. Than followed explanations, a recognition and such hand shakings and words of affection as the sol, dier at least had not known, he said, " for nine years." The explanation of the case is as follows : Nine years ago, the soldier ran away from his father's house, in Colum biana county. He went to Cincinnati, enlisted in the army, and was sent to the Western frontier. The last letter received by his parents from him, stated that, hav ing shot his captain, he was himself to be shot. He had been allowed only fifteen minutes to live, and was employing his time writing to his parents. The letter enclosed a lock of the soldier's hair, and was received by his parents as conclusive of his death. The feelings of the father, when he beheld again his son yesterday morning, may be imagined. In the ex planation of the statement in his last letter that he was to be shot, Wren said he was rescued by two Indians. Wren's brother, a fireman on the Cleveland and Pittsburgh railroad, was also at the depot, and saw his brother. The brother, then a small boy, cried and begged him not to go,when be was about leaving his father's house.— His mother has died during his absence.— Cleveland Herald COUNCILMAN DNA]) —ln another col. umn will be found a notice of the death of Mr. Chadwick, an old merchant of the city, at the time of his death a member oi the Common Council.

D., Professor of the United Presbyte. rian Seminary, Allegheny, has accepted a call tendered him ty the congregation in Manchester, formerly under the charge of the Rev. J. C. Steele. Professor Clark is an able and talented minister, and will doubtless prove satisfactory to those who have called him. CoNFlßMED.—Governor Pierpont has received a statement in regard to the re cent fight at Sissonville, that it is ascer tained that forty of the body guard were killed in the attack, as at first stated, but it is not known whether Wise and Patton were mortally wounded or not, as they were taken away.

LATER FROM FORTRESS MONROE MOVEMENTS OF THE MILITARY LOUISVILLE ITEMS CONGRESSIONAL PROCEEDINGS WASHINGTON CITY ITEMS &c., &c•, WASHINGTON, July I'2 —Hous - E.—The following Committees were announced:— First to enquire and report relative to the establishment of a National Armory west of the Alleghenies•—Messrs. Moorehead, MoOlernand, Bingham, Kellogt, of Mich , Stratton, Delano, Hollins, of Mo., Vande. ver and Wallace. The Select Committee to inquire into the subject of Army Contracts—Messrs Van Wyck,W ashburnt,H amen, Fenton, Dawes, Steele, of N. IL, and Jackson. On Pad to Itailr(sad—Messrs. Curtis, Campbell, Mallory, of hid., Blair, Cox, Webster, Franchat, Arnold and Thayer. Mr. Vallandtgbam, of Ohio, offered a preamble and resolution substantially as follows : WHEREAS, It i 9 rumored that Gilbert Marston, of N. H , Jam Is E. Kerrigan, of N Y., Charles J. Biddle and Edward Mc- Pherson, of Pa., and Samuel it Curtis, of lows, bolding seats in this House, have oeen sworn i Inc, the military service, under the authority of the United States; and whereas, J atnef, 11 Campbell. of PS., has also been admitted on the floor of this House, he holding a military commission; therefore Resolved, That the Committee on Elec. tiona be inntructed to inqure and report, without unnecessary delay, whether the gentlemen above named, or any of them, claiming seats here and at the same tithe bolding military offices under the author ity of the United States, are conatitu tionally disqualified from being membe of this House while holding such military commiasions. Mr. Lovejoy, of 111., desired the resolu tion to lie upon the table. Mr. Vallandigham, of Ohio, said that two similar cases have heretofore been de cided by the House, and it was determined that they were disqualified as members, owing to their military commissions. He did not wish to trespass on the patience of the House by elaborate remarks at this time, but this being a grave matter it should be investigated. Mr. McKnigh t, of Pa.,wanted an amend ment made, namely : to insert Mr.Vallan digham's name in the resolution, after that gentleman's speech on Wednesday. The Committee on Elections ought to examine into Mr. Vallandigham's credentials, to ascertain whether or not he was accredit ed to the wrong Congress. Mr. Vallandigham replied that if the gentleman desired any personal contro versy with him he could have it elsewhere, whenever and wherever he should decide. He (Mr. V.) came into the House to abide by r.ts rules and the usages of decorum, but not to violate them. Mr. McKnight said neither did he mean to violste the decorum of the body. There were cries of order during this spirited collopuy. Mr. Campbell, of Pa., said that., as for himself, whose name was mentioned in the resolution, he heid his seat here by virtue of the confidence of the people of the Eleventh Congressional District of Penn sylvania. His commission as :colonel was under the authority of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. He had no two offices under the Federal Government. He had taken the oath of allegiance to support the Constitution, as Vallandigham did, and in this resprect they were even. This matter did not rise to the dignity of a legal ques• tion. if this House should decide that there was any conflict of commissions in his case, be would resign his seat here and follow the flag of his country in the open field, wherever it may be. [Applause ] LOUISVILLE, July 12 —l2 M.—A res. olution was offered in Councils last night, requiring the Revision Committee to en. quire into the abduction of youths under. age to the Southern Confederacy. The State Military have decided that no more money shall be spent on the military en campment, and have also demanded that the Governor call in the arms in possess ion of the State Guard, and make a fair distribution of them between the Home and State Guards.

On arriving at the latter place, they formed a junction with Smith's force, who had entrenched themselves at the Academy buildings.— The rebels, 1200 strong, were grouped around over the prairie, out of reach of Smith's rifles. They had two pieces of artillery, which were brought to bear, but the distance was so great that the balls were almost spent before they reach.. ed our lines. Smith's artillery of longer range did considerable execution. The fight lasted until dusk. The last shot from Smith's guns die. mounted one of the enemy's. Just at that moment Gov. Wood, of Illinois fell on their rear with cavalry sent from Quincy on Wednesday, completely routing them, taking 76 prisoners. one gun, and a large number of horses; 20 or 30 of the enemy were killed. Not one man of the Federal forces was killed, although several were severely wounded. Col. Smith is deter: mined to shoot some of the most promi nent rebels. Gen. Tom. Harris, the rebel leader escaped. PORTLAND, July 12.—The ship Mary Goodell, from New York to Buenos Ayres, has arrived.

WHEELING, July 12.—The debates in the House of Delegates within the last day or two, have been very interesting. They occurred mainly on the resolutions of Mr. Oarthers, of Brooke t - to instruct the Bens. tors to vote for men and money without stint to the government, and to oppose all compromise until the rebelion, was crush ed, and upon the resolution of Mr. Vance f of Harrison, to protest against Mr. Love joy's repeal of the fugitive slave law. Mr. Oarthers' resolution was passed with only one dissenting voice. Mr. Arnold, of Lewis, is regarded as a doubtful Union man. Mr. Vacce's reso lutions were tabled by a large vote. ST.
