Ire Wive - been laboring under the impres
sion that military men would regulate the
war movements for the future. We are
never, it would seem, to get clear of the
editors, politicians or preachers of New
York city. They know more than all the
world beside, and 'are very uneasy lest
Generals Scott and McClellan will not
profit by their wisdom The Secretary of
War, Hon. !Simon 'Cameron, is mace the
medium of communication with the Gen
erals in Chitif by the New York Evangeli
cal Alliaoce, who propose the following.—
/at. That no more troops shall be trans
ported to or from the seat of war upon the
Sittglath,, unless in oases of extreme neces
sity.. -.2di That no more battles be fought

This genie association is making arrange

able reading matter to the respective
regiments here from New York.
The Hon. Simon Cameron is a very

give notice that hereafter fighting must
cease at twelve o'clock Saturday night, and
that each man will drop his musket,
take up-a tract, and be ready, with clean
faces, Sunday morning, to be catechised by
the , titangelical Alliance Association. Of
oonno, General McClellan will issue the
accessary orders as soon as he hears from
him.
THE NATIONAL LOAN.
After a consultation of several days,
the representatives of the banks of New
York; Philadelphia - and lkiston, who
met lathe former city to consider upon
the propriety of taking a portion of the
government loan of $500,000,000, have
agreed with the Secretary of the Treasury
for the money required by the Govern
ment. The Committee met on Wednes
day morning, and, after some discussion,
agreed to report in favor of the purchase
by_. tini }pinks of $50,000,000 of 7 340 per
cent Treasury notes, the banks retaining
the privilege of subscribing tor another.
$50,000,000 on the 15th of October, and
$50,000,000 on the 15th of December;
provided- that the Secretary issue no
other I .l l .raasury notes or bonds until
February Ist, 1862, should the associates'
• avail themselves of both privileges—or
uittd?.December 'l5, 1861, should they
aveaftiemselves of the first only—or
until October 15, 1861, if they take
but the-present sso,ooo,ooo—except
that the government may negotiate in
Europe, or through subscriptions to the
national loan. The report of the com
mittee was adopted and the negotiation
thua secured. This will give the
,goyanunent ample means for the vigo
-vane prosecution of the war, and it is
eqw , lly gratifying as showing the confi
dence of capitalists in the stability and
resources of our government
THE DEMOCRACY.

The blifw York limes, a Republican
Prhititells 7 the following tru the :
"It would have been easy, perhaps, for
the di mocratio masses of the free States to
have overthrown the government and per.
seenently dissevered the Union, by refus•
ing olipport to Mr. Lincoln when his
inauvuration was menaced, and when,
later, the supremacy of the constitution
was wailed by the practical wsertion of
the xight of secession. Bat the Democracy
.did not so read their honor or their safety.
'Throved their country more than party;
.amd_ist .14,- Lincoln they saw, not the sue

President of the United States.
.
therefore, they supported—not
grudgingly, but heartily—as earnestly and
actideusly; in fact, as if he had been their
own party leaser in the canvass that pro.
ceded his election."
We, commend this to our rabid partisan
friends who insist upon reviving the wasted
immanf the past, and in the very midst of
a desultory war, clutching for the spoils of

SODND AND ittIIIL
The Pittsburgh Catholic of this week,
as it has been in the past, is clear and
manly in its opinions of the present
struggle. We take great pleasure in
trmasferOug to our columns a portion of
its
.. ,040frial. The editor says : "Our
oalylivpg then, is in a united North.—
Now, if ever, we may say, 'united we
stand, divided we fall.' We are much
mistaken if the record of the present:,
Administration, notwithstanding all its
faults, will not present oneof the bright
est pages in. our history. It has had a
herculean work to do—a work which no
kdministration that was ever framed
could do, without errors and failures in
details. Yet, so far, its errors are not
worth considering. Give it, then, a cor
dial, a united support. Advise it, en
lighten it, if you will, but do not carp at
it. An ungenerous hostile criticism of
the Administration, in the present cir
' cumstances of the country, is nothing
less than constructive treason ; for it
tends to weaken the Government in the
face of an enemy who seeks to destroy
it. We are advocates of free discussion,
but free discussion has its proper matter
and its proper limits, beyond which it is
out of place, if not reprehensible. Under
ordinary circumstances, we would accord
to the effusions of crotchety,, sore-headed,
and even venal politicians, the largest
possible indulgence ; but, in the actual
condition of the country, such men can
not be silenced to soon."
-x
"From time to time, we see the Catho
lics of the Northern States blamed for
their uflarumity in upholding the Gov
ernment, on the ground that, in sup
porting the Administration, we are but
strengthening the hands of a fanatical
party, which in the past sought to pro
scribe us; and which, should it succeed
against the South, will turn its energies
towards the extirpation of Catholicity. .
We have yet to meet Catholics who have
been influenced in any degree by con
siderations of this kind. Catholics know
very well they must not serve the Church
at the expense of principle. Expedi
ency may be, and is, a very good rule in
its place, but it may not be followed at
the expense of principle; The course
we have taken is that which duty and
conscience dictated, and with God's help,
we shall follow it regardless of conse
quences. We are not unmindful of what
Virginia did towards breaking down the
anti-Catholic and anti-American Know-
Nothing faction. Still, where Virginia
is in the wrong, we cannot side or sym
pathize with her. Should the Govern
ment triumph in its presenb struggle for
existence, as triumph it certainly will, it
is more than probable that "No Popery"
will become the party, cry of many of its
present supporters. Nevertheless, we
must now fight with them, side by side,
for the supremacy of the Government ;
for this is a sacred duty which we and
they owe to God and our country. We
must do this, and leave the rest to God.
The Church has nothing to fear from
any party in this country. Her beauty
and her strength are from within ; from
the virtues of her children, from the
Spirit that - has promised to abide with
her for ever. Catholics can and ought
to support the party that is disposed to
protect them and their rights, as opposed
to the party that assails them in those
rights; but they cannot, to gain the
whole world, be wanting in a single duty
they owe the Government."
FIRE ZOUAVES.
Although this regiment suffered severely
in killed and wounded and did some good
fighting, it was desultory and ineffective.
Their proper place was on the flank, and
to fight according to Zonate tactics, say
their friends, and not in front to be pep.'
pored by mashed batteries ; but their duty
was to fight wherever they were placed.
The Now York World, speaking of the
return of this regiment home, says:
" It la not to be disguised, that the pope.
kr feeling with regard to this corps is very
different from whatit was when they left
this city under the command of Colonel
Ellsworth. Why this is so is explained;
by the text of Colonel Heintzelman's
dal report, which, together with Colonel
Porter's report, settles the vexed question
as to what caused the panjc on the battle-'
field. It was not the civilians nor the
teamsters ; it was the Fire Zonaves, who
broke and fled on the first fire, and whose
bad example was followed by the New
_York Fourteenth and other regimente,who
communicated the panic to the rest of the
enty. The following extract from Colonel
Porter's , report settles this-matter :
* * " ' Theevanescent
courage of the Fire Zotiaves prompted
them to fire a hundred shots, when they
broke and fled, leaving the batterts,s open
to a charge of the enemy's cavalry;twhich
took place immediately. The Marines,
also, in spite of the exertions of their gal.
lant offices, gave way in disorder. The
Fourteenth on the 'right and the -column
on the left hesitatingly retired, with the
exception of the Sixkyoninth and the
Twenty-seventh New York, who nobly
stood and returned the fire of the enemy
for fifteen minutes. ,f3oon ,the slopes behind

our officers were tkrown away upon men
who had lost till 'Presence of mind, and only
longed for absence of body. Some of our
noblest and best officers lost their lives in
the trial to rally them upon our first post.,
tion.'
" With such a record as this, it .is not
wise to attempt to reorganize this regi
ment. Let the men, if they will, join other
volunteer organizations, but recruits Sou.
not be expected to swell the ranks of this
unfortunate corps.

THE NATIONAL PLATFORM.
Congress, by a vote nearly unanimous,
passed the following resolution dediaring
the origin and object of the war:
"That the present deplorable civil war
has been forced upon the country by:the
disunionists of the Southern States, now itt
arms against the Constitutional GOvern
ment, and in arms around the Capitol; that
in this National emergency, Congress, ban.
fishing all feeling cf mere, passion or re•
sentment, will recollect only its duty to the
whole country; that this war is not waged
on their part in any spirit of oppression,
or for any purpose of conquest or subjuga.
lion, or Purpose of overthrowing or inter
faring with the rights or established luta.
tutions of those States, but to defend and
maintain the supreinacy of the Constitu
Mon, and to preserve the Union, with all
the dignity, equality and , rights of the
several States unimpaired ; and that as
soon as these objects are accomplished the
war ought to cease "
It would be well to keop this resolve be
fore our eyes when passion struggles for
the ascendancy, and, smarting under the
infliction of terrible injuries, the frequent
wish is thrown out that vengeance should
rule the contest. This is not waged
in any spirit of oppression." Let us not
lose eight of this declaration made by an
almost unanimous Congress.
Gun Boats and Iron Clad Steamers.
The building of the twenty-four gun.
boats for the United States is progress
ing as fast as possible. Twelve of them
are being built in New York. The No
velty Iron Works have contracted for
seven; the Morgan Iron Works for
three, and the Allaire Iron Works for
two. Of those being built by the No
velty Works, four are to be constructed
after the pattern and mould of the gun
boats recently built at the same Works
for the Russian Government. The
other three are to be of the same dimen
sions as the gun-boats now building at
other Works. They will bA 155 feet
long, 26 feet breadth of beam, and 12
feet depth of hold The engines will
be double acting, and will have 30-inch
cylinders, with a stroke of 18 feet.
The first will be launched and ready for
her machinery in about four weeks.
The machinery and boilers will be ready
to be put in as soon as the boats are
launched. The time appointed for the
first to be ready is about the middle of
October, and each of the others in suc
cession, fifteen days after, until the
whole are finished. The gun-boats
which Mr. Bads, of St. Louis, has con
tracted to build, are to be completed
within sixty days from the fifth of
August. The aggregate cost to the
Government is to be $630,000, of which
about $400,000 will be expended for
labor. Tworof the seven steam sloops
authorized by the last C - Agress, now in
course of construction at the Kittery
Yard, are being fast completed. One
will be launched in three weeks it the
engines are ready, and the other in
about five weeks .
The Secretary- of the Navy has issued
orders for the construction of five of the
twelve new side wheel gun boats author
ized by the last Congress. They are to
be constructed at the following Yards :
—Kittery, Maine, two; Charlestown,
one; Brooklyn, one ; Philadelphia, one.
The other seven steamers are to be con
structed outside of _th.e Navy Yards by
contract. There are two or more iron-
clad steamers also to be built by eon
trials, the proposals having been issued
From Washington City.
MUTINY IN THE SRO, FIiTY-NINTIL
The friends of the 79th will deeply re
gret to hear of a mutiny in that fine
regiment. The alleged violation of
promise, made upon parade, that they
should visit their friends, and an alleged
unwillingness to go into Sickle's brigade,
induced four hundred of the men to
flatly refuse to strike their. tents this
morning when the order to move camp
was given.
The non-commissioned officers took
from the men their arms, struck the
tents and placed the tents and muskets
in wagons and sent them off. Of the
whole regiment, only 100, including
the musicians, obeyed their Colonel.—
These confined the mutineers to the
limits of the broken up camp. The
city was painfully excited by the move
ment of a regiment of cavalry, a battal
ion of regular infantry, and a battery of
three gnus to the neighborhood of the
mutiny.
On being surrounded by these troops,
the men obeyed an order to fall into
line .of much. It was necessary to
handcuff three only. An order was
then read, reciting their many acts oi l
insubordination, and the long iorbear.
since of the Government, and declaring
that the leaders would be dealt with
cording to the rules of war. The ring:
leaders, about seventy in number, wei
then named, disarmed, placed in al
center of a hollow square, and marchO
to the guard-house. The rest of tke
regiment were then marched over the
bridge to Virginia
Two squadrons of cavalry, six comp * .
vies of the 3d Infantry, and a battery
of artillery wore used. The regiment
marched two minutes after the. order
was given. By order of Gen. Ilegel

On the let a public electit4 meeting
was held at Rochdale, at which Mr.
Bright made a speech. e quote so
tundras refers to the Wu supply :
14 r Cheetham has refeired to another
question, as to which I 'Should like to
say one or two words before I sit down,
and that is with regard to the perilou3
position in which this country is placed
in consequence of the unhappy trans
actions which are now happening on the
the other side of the .Atlantic. Mr.
Cheettunn did not tell you what I can
tell you He paid me some compli
ments which, as I am not a candidate,
will not bo of' much service to me just
now; but without complimenting Mr.
Cheetham,l can tell you that he is a most
active—l believe the most active—
member of an asscciation formed in
this district for the purpose of promo
ting a better supply of cotton, not from
India alone, but from all parts of the
world where cotton can be grown, and
although perhaps it would be too much
to say that that association had been
able to produce any great results, be
cause so short a time has elapsed since
its operations began, yet it has now
sown the seed, as it were, of a produc
tion of cotton in very many parts of the
world where that production probably
would never have been heard of or
thought of if it had not been for the
labors of that association. With re
gard to the supply from India, I may
tell you this, that there is no man
from Lancashire of late who has been
more assiduous in his attendance in
London whenever anything was to be
done with the Minister for India, or
with the House of Commons, with the
view to promote the opening out of the
industry of that vast country, so as to
increase the produot:ott and export to
this country. I think, that just now,
if y ou can find a man who, on ques
tions of great State policy, agrees with
us, at the same time having a deep per
sonal interest in thisgreat cotton ques
tion, and having pail so much atten
tion to it as Mr. Chatham has, I think
there is a doable reison why he should
receive the votes aid have the confi
deuce of this division of the county.
[Cheers.] New, igthis cotton question
a great question,
ar not ? I met a
spinner to-day; le does not; live in
Rochdale, thous I - met him
here—and I asked him what
he thought abot it; and he said,
"Well, I think otton will come some
how." [Laughtml And, I find that
there is that kind of answer to be had
from three out of four of all the spin
ners I ask. They know that in past
times, when cotton has risen 50 or 80
per cent., or some extravagant rise,
someting has come—the rate of inter
est was raised, or there has been no com.
mercial panic from some cause or other,
and down the price has gone, and when
every body said, "There would be no
cotton at Christmas," there proved a
very considerable stock at Christmas.
And so theysay now. I don't in the
least deny that it will be so; all I assert
is that this particular case is new, that
we have neier had a war in the United
States between different sections of the
country, electing the production of cot
ton before; and it is not fair, nor wise,
but ratherchildish than otherwise, to
argue frog past events, which were not
a bit likelhis, of the event which is
now posing before our eyes. They
say, "It is quite true there is a civil
war in America, but it will blow over;
there wilt be a compromise; for the
English Government will break the
blooLade Now recollect what break
ing the blockade means. It means a
war wit hthe United States. and I don't
think tripoli' it would be cheap to break
the blockade, at the cost of a war with
the United States. t think that the
cost of a war with the United States
would give, probably, half wags, for a
very cotsiderable time, to those persons
in Lancashire who would .be out of
work if there was no cotton, to say
nothing at all of the manifest injustice
and wrong against all International law,
(that a legal and effective blockade
should be interfered with by another
country. It is not exactly the business
of this meeting, but my opinion is, that
the safety of the products on which
this country depends, rests far more on
the success of tho Washington Govern
ment than upon its failure; and I be
lieve nothing could be more monstrous
than for us, who are not very averse to
war ourselves, to set np for oritica—,
carping, cavilling critics—of what the
Washington Government is' doing. I
saw a letter the other day from an Eng,
lishman resident for 25 years in Phil a -;.
delphia, a merchant there, and a
very prosperous merchant. fe said,
"I prefer the institutions of this
country ( the United States) very
touch to yours in England;" but he
says also, "If it bp once admitteji that
here we have no country and no govern
ment, but that any portion of these
United States can break off from the
entral Government whenever it pleases,
then' it is time for me to pack up
, hat I have, and to go somewhere whrre
there is a country,and a government."
Well, that is the , pith of this ques
tion. Do you suppose' that if Lanca
shire and Yorkshire thought that they
would break off from the United King
dom that those newspapers_who are now
preaching every kind of moderation to
:the Government of Washington would
advise, the Govermeent in London to
allow these two counties to set up a
special government for themselves ?
When the people oflrelandasked that
they should secede was it proposed in
London that they s hould be allowed to
secede peaceably ? , Nothing of the
' kind. I am not going to defend whit
is taking place in &country . that is well
able to defend itself. ,But I advisayou
and I advise the people of England to
abstain from applying . to the United
States diaitiines and principles which :
we never apply *sour own case. At
any rate, they have never fought for
"the balance of power" in Europe. —
They have never fought to keep up a
decaying empire. They have never
squandered the money of their people
in such phantom expeditions as we have
been engaged in. And - now at thisano

[Loud cheers.] They say that theY:are'

quires. No rnan is more in favor of
peace than I am; no man has de
nounced war more than I have, proba
bly, in this country; few men, in their
public life, have suffered more obloquy
—I had almost said more indignity—
in consequence of it. But I cannot,
for the life of me see,
_upon any of those
principles upon which States aro gov
erned now--I say nothing of the
: literal
word of the New Testament—l Cannot
see how the state of affairs in America,
with regard to the United States Gov
ernment, could have been different from
what it is at this moment. We had a
heptarchy in this country, and it wan
thought to be a good thing to get rid of
it, and to have a united nation. If the
thirty-three or thirty-four States of the
American Union can break off when
eiter they like, I can see nothing but
disaster and confusion throughout the
whole of that continent. I say that
the war, be it successful or not, bo it
Christian or not, be it wise or not, is a
war to sustain the Government and to
sustain the authority of a great nation;
and that the people of England, if they
are true to their own sympathies, to
their own history, and to their own
great Act of 1834, to which reference
has already been made, will have no
sympathy for those who wish to build
up a great empire on the perpetual
bondage of millions of their fellow
men. [Loud cheers.]

with the loss of 21 killed and several
wounded. On our side there was no

almost entirely brigaded, and, as far as
possible, each brigade is to be encamped

shoes, and supplies, are furnished as
rapidly as possible to the troops needing

THE ENFIELD RIFLE has a mean de

three feet. A first rate American rifle,

its shot into a circle eight inches in di
ameter. To do this, however, the bar

pull, but is worked by a pinch motion
with the thumb and finger. This is in
tended to obviate the throwing of the
piece out of range by the act of pull
