We publish to-day entire the act ban ishing from the Confederate States, with in forty days, all citizens of the United States who refuse 'to declare their in teidlons of becoming citizens of the Con %dente States. It ispregnant with food for - thought. It is evident that in this coutneUthere can be no such thing as neutralityeither in-the North or South.

This is no partizawcontest, and while it is pending the issues of party should be sunk in utter wblivion. The Squth * its rebellion is united. It ctenpels those who love the Union and would ;sustain the goVernment to be silent, or it destroys them. The Southern confederacy admits of no two parizies 'there. All must be, by choice or by force, rebels against their legitimate government. HAM instead of pursuing that wise polioyiwhich would sustain the. govern ment mosteffectually, we are too much inrazted to foment old differences and to create serious divisions of sentiment s which may lead to most disastrous re sults in the end, and which are already weakening the confidence of the people in the laower of the government to eupoe4, this rebellion and sustain it- Symptcms of this conditicn.of feeling are a 1.r#41 : 351. 4 , iffOhicktqta consider able er*igtind more or - less in others of thelifortherniStates.

Hundreds of arrests hate already been made for-such causes. Not only is all such aid and comfort to the enemy most emphatically forbid den by law, but rebel sympathisers are wanted that all relations respecting the military oPerations of the country so as to reach the enemy are made punishable by death. The War Department has just issued the following order, which we commend to the attention of all rebel sympathisers in Paris or elsewhere: By the 57th article of the act of Congress entitled "An act for establishing rules and articles for the government of the armies of the United States," approved the 10th of April, 1806, holding correspondence with or giving aid to the enemy, either directly or indirectly, is made punishable by death, or such other punishment as shall be ordered by the sentence of a court mar. tial. The public safety requires a strict enforcement of this article. It is, there fore, ordered that all correspondence and communication, verbally or by writing, printing or telegraphing, respecting the operations of the army or military move ments on land or watei, or respecting the troops, camps, arsenals, intrencbments or military affairs within the several military districts, by which intelligence shall be directly or indirectly given to the enemy, witt out the authority and sanction of the general in command, be and the same are absolutely prohibited ; and from and after the date of this order persons violating the same wilt be proceeded against under the 57th article of war. . A FOOL'S PROGRAMMG. The Dayton Empire publishes its programme as "Peace, Prosperity and Low Taxes." Is its editor fool enough to suppose that the people of this country will ever enjoy either of these three bless ings until this rebellion in the South is thoroughly orusbed out, and the power of the Constitution, upon which peace, liberty, prosperity and our very existence as a nation depend, is acknowledged by all the people. Peace on any otherterms, wouhrbe no peace. It would be the establishment of a sys tem of internal war of interminable continuance, and destructive to every interest in the land THE GERMANS. All over the country the Germans, since this war commenced, have mani fested the utmost patriotism in the cause of their adopted country. Many, if not most of them, have already seen military service in their own country ; they make the very best of soldiers— brave, enduring, determined. A correspondent at Freeport writes to inform us that the Germans there, as elsewhere, are patriotic and sound on the Union question. A day or two since, a Mi. Moyer, from Pittsburgh, visited that place for the purpose of recruiting, and by!the aid of .Mr. George Epples, he got six recruits in a short time, all of them Germans, and shoemakers by trade. It is understood .that they are intended fora German regiment now forming in St. Louis, to be added to the force of the brave General Sigel, in Missouri. It is stated that there are many more Germans in this little town of Freeport who are willing to leave their homes to fight for the cause of liberty and the Union. Success to Sigel and the patri otic Germans everywhere. MARTIAL LAW IN MISSOURI. The telegraph tripgs us General Fre moat's proclamation declaring Martial Law in Missouri. The document is a remarkable one and will attractnniversal atteation. THE news from Washington is becom ing painfully interesting. Everymessage that flashes over the wire, is surcharged with , portents of' the coming battle:— The enemy are pressing upon our lines in force, and are seizing upon every hill or wood that will command any portion of oiler camp. They evidently meditate some bold stroke, and that it will be both skillful and bold weave 110 reason to dqubt, in view of what they have alreaily done.

The National east-Day. - Bishop Whittingham, of the Episco pal Diocese of Maryland, like Bishop Burgess of Maine, abhors rebellion and all its attendant heresies, and has tin fellowship with the Louisiana traitor, Polk. In a pastoral letter, just issued to the clergy and laity of his diocese hi view of the approaching fast-day, Bish op Whittingham utters this warning. The concluding paragraph is a most happy MI at the "snobs," a very abun dant race among the rebels of Maryland. in whose arteries no mere ordinary vul gar blood of reddish color courseth, but it is known by its distinguished tinge of "azure blue:" "I have taken cure to preacribe no petition in which all who believe in the just government of God, 'and t4ily de sire the accomplishment of his right 1p eons will, may not from the heart"' ii.- sent, without mental protest or ;hese ve tion.

THE German Turners of St. Louis, having been three months in the service of the government, and received an honorable discharge, have decided to en•enlist for three years, and are now filling up their regiment. No person will be accepted whole not a recognized gymnast. FEARS are expressed that Gen. Rose crans has not done in Western Virginia what the Government expected of him. We think these fears a:l3 altogether premature and founded upon mere ru mors, most of them probably originating with the Secessionists. . 1 Times of dearth its business and distress n finances are the very times to inauger ate reforms. The pressure on the people arouses them to action, and the necessity of action renders it speedy and effective All our spare means will be needed in the coming autumn, winter and perhaps spring, for the maintenance of this war. This, then, is the time in which to return to plain republican economy. This is the day on which to lower the salaries of public officers to a reasonable stand ard. This is the hour when to see that their time, toil and talent reap no larger reward than those of their fellow citizens. Most men are willing ,or at lea 4t compelled, to labor for less than one thousand dollars yearly. There never was a reason, and there is still less reason now, why attorney ships, sheriffalties, colleotorships, post masterships, &0., should be worth from five to ten, twenty, and even fifty thousand dollars. The incumbents of these officers are, in the average, no more able or industrious than many of their constituents ; and there is no just cause for themy , more than others, to fatten on the *lie. 'Such large sal mi**, tempting ttteoritin* n a l intrigue and enirnoien, are barren . of good and fruitful of all Enquirer. {:; ; ~- Lam--;i ~,~~• The September Conventional Three Conventions are advertised to be hold on the 10th inst., namely: the .q-Mglikk-Stata Convention of May -104-foal-fed by the rebel members of the Legislature of that State, to meet at Baltimore; the Armed Neutrality or Peace Convention of-the State of Ken tucky, at Frankfort, and the New York German Republican State Convention, at Syracuse. The Administration has decided that the interests of the Re public require that the first two shall not be held, and they will accordingly be suppressed, The Administration regards all peace conventions as in the highest degree treasonable, and all ad vocates of peace, until the rebels shall have laid down their arms and submit ted to the power of the Government, as traitors. A Very Broad Hint. The capitalists who loaned the Gov ernment fifty million dollars, adopted the following resolution: "Resolved, That this, meeting, in assuming the grave responsibility of furnishing meanA to sustain the Govern ment in this important crisis, beg leave respectively to express to the PreFident of the United States its confident ex peotation that the Government will, •without respect to party or personal con siderations, so conduct its affairs in every department of administration, as to insure vigor, integrity, economy and efficiency, to the triumphant termina tion of the war." This is simply saying in very mild terms, yu have not done right hereto fore, but after this try and do better. The N. Y. Times says: "To the President, this significant resolution cannot fail to imply several things. One io, that there was in the opinion of the bankers, a need to give him the warning it contains. The cap italists do fear that all is not right in the administration of the Government or they would never have told the Presi dent that he would be expected 'integ rity' and 'economy' in the application of the money they are advancing. But the resolution signifies more. It reaches into the future, and means that if the President shall fail to consult the ob vious wishes of the nation in regar I to the vigor integrity, economy, and effi ciency' of the Administration in the prosecution of the war, the 'grave res ponsibility of furnishing means to sus tain the Government' will be dropped by the very capitalists by whom it has been assumed." A GENTLEMAN who arrived at Wash ington on Thursday from Richmond via Louisville, states that the rebel army in Virginia now amounts to over 300,- 000, of whom 150,000 are on the South bank of the Potomac. Fie says that Manassas has been to a great extent abandoned, and the main force of the army moved to the Upper Potomac, where they intend to make a crossing, take possession of Maryland, and thus surround Waslii nom and get possession of all the army stores and munitions lying there. He Represents that the enthusiasm of the South knows no bounds since the battle of Bull run, and that the people are confident of victory, the reconstruction of the United States under a Southern President, and the permanent security and extension of the institution of slavery.

It is more than likely that in the course of the next two days there will be some important military movements in the immediate vicinity of Washing ton. It will be interesting, therefore, to know the exact position of the ene my's forces. With the aid of the maps of the vicinity of Washington hereto fore published in the Inquirer, the reader will be able to follow our descrip tion. It must be borne in mind that it is now five weeks since the defeat of our army at Ball Ran; that that de feat has had the effect of an electric shock throughout the whole South; that it has roused the enthusiasm of the South to a higher pitch than ever; that, during the last five weeks, troops have been pouring into Virginia from all the - other Southern States; that the Confederates have now in arms, accord ing to their own accounts, forces dis tributed about as follows: No of Mon. r egc roes, west of Washington... 0 0,000 J , hmtm's roes at tad near Lexabory...... 40,0;0 Magruder's for,me, at AViittia Creek and Fred ei I.•ksburg.. 20,000 At batterres on ' , outman, York, dames and • tlisppaha wn nocck rivets 12,000 Yorkto A n feorftak and Portsmouth 101,00 At R:chmoud. Forces of Generals Lee and Floyd, in Wes- 6,0tt0 tern Virginia At Lynchburg (Camp oflnstruction?... Total... .Z 3,000 The disposition of the forces in the immediate vicinity of 'Washington is' apparently in the form of a crescent, the horns resting near the Chain Bridge and Shooter's Hill, and the crescent near Ball's and Bailey's - Cross Roads. There are strong detachments at Falls Church, at Vienna, at Fairfax, at Cen treville,and at Germantown. The great Parrot gun, captured by the ene my at Bull Run, has been brought up by them to Bailey's Cross Roads, and was placed in position there yesterday, behind their intrenehments. It is not believed, however, that these prepara tions indicate any design of an imme diate attack upon Washington, but only a closer approach to it on all sides, in order to be ready for an attack if that measure is finally decided on. Rebel Spies. There is no doubt, that officers of the rebel army have recently visited Bala. more, and passed openly through the streets there without interruption, in uniform of officers of the United States Army. It is possible that they have also been in Washington City, and by the same means have obtained whatever information they desired. BLOCKADE Op THE SOUTHERN IN LETs.—The hulks par chased at Balti more for sinking in the entrances of the Carolina inlets, are twenty in number , and ranged in price from $4OO to $2OOO. The latter was for large vessels of deep draft. The total cost of this material for putting an end to British smuggling and fora ig n mercantile sympathy with our Rebels, was $21,000 iEN MCCULLOC H hes made a brief report of the battle of Springfield to the Confederate Secretary of War. He claims a "great victory;" says Lyon had ten thousand men, and "our force abuut the same," and • "our loss was eight hundred wounded, and thirty miss ing." THE alacrity- and enthusiasm with which the call for the new Treasiiry loan is responded to in this city, is evidence enough that, as a popular movement, its results are likely to prove as remark able as those of the people's loan in France. THE Post Office Department has ordered the carrying of the mails in several portions of Kentucky, west of Tennessee rider, to be suspended, in consequence of the repeated violation of the same. Iv is positively denied that any letter has been received from Mr. Adams, in dicating a speedy recognition of the Southern Confederacy by Great Britain. On th e contrary,: the indications are a ut t, all Buropeon gov,ernments intend to •ftwait the result of the eenten• t d., .., The People's Loan. A considerable number of well known finaciers are nowinWashingtoll;amorig whom are recognized the Presidents tit some of the chief banks in - Isliiiir:Yorkp , They make no secret of their errand here, which is, they Say, to Urge ;Aipop the President not only a vigorous:prose cution of the war, but also such a change' , , , ' in the manner of conducting it as shall have the effect of scattering the im mense Rebel forces now concentrated before Washington, by making itnece* eery for the Confederates to defend other points. It might be thought that we had had enough of such business, and that the President, bifida tithe had learned to turn a deaf ear to advice from any such quarter. Certainly, nothing is more ridiculous than the spectacle of civilians, in any rank of life, preauming s to dictate to the Administration as' to what disposition shall be made of the , half million of men soon to be: brf to field, and, yon may rely. upon it t such attempts interference will have no more effect upon the pia as of General' Scott and Gen. McClellan than theblow ing of the idle wind. The faot- that these gentlemen represent the 8 5 0,000,- 000 which the banks have subscribed to the national loan givesthem no pre scriptive right to obtrude their views upon the Government. The Secretary of the Treasury has , the satisfaction of knowning that the people have taken hold of the matter 4. well as the banks, and that it is to diem: after all, that the sinews of ,war,: be looked for. The President,-,totioniV derstands this, and he feels , mare and: more every day his responsibility the people, and every day strengthens his determination to rise above thatram, Inds of self-oonstituted advisers, and to be the p eople's setvant alone. Hence there is Food reason for saying that all the blowing and bluster of the "onward to Richmond" men, under whatever guise or disguise they may come, will have no effect on the President now.— He understands his duty antfasill. per form it. Ho will seiithat the .war is prosecuted to a vigorous and'a speedy termination; but the manner in which it is to be conducted will be - left to Gen eral Scott and General McClellan While upon the subject of the popular loan, it may be well to state that the Attorney-General of the United States has published a decision, stating that' the new loan is not property which can be taxed by either State or local au thorities.
