How beautifu'ly this patriotic letter
of the old hero oontraats with the thous
and fanatic and impractical,le effusions
we sec every day cmenating from our
blatent politicians. Gen. Scott quietly
and easily shows that Great Britain has
no reason to be dissatisfied with our gov
ernment seizing the rebel embassadors,
according to her own examples and
teaching. Our politicians desire nothing
but a fight with England; and fearful
that we m y not then be sufficiently en
gaged, they Wish France to interfere so
that we can chastise them both and
crush the rebellion all at the same time.
en. Scott, a soldier of established rep
utation, requires peace; our members of
Congress, and others who are anxious to
go here, are beut on war-not actual
hostilities, but an opportunity to talk of
It. True valor is always modest the
counterfeit makes up for its deficienov
by additional bluster. We a-e surprio-d
that we have not had a town meeting
called here before this in order to give
our fussy patriots an opportunity of be
ing heard upon the question of -‘, ln i, n .
pending war with England "
“OLD BEN WADE ”
We had almost forgotten (hat thi- ,1,
tinguished Abolition agitaior j, sh n j
Congress. For live years Ben was relie
upon hy his colleagues lo ,h, u u . roue,
work of his party in the Semile, an.'
frequently intimidated "blu.-ileri
drivers" hy the exhibition of
muscle, lie was not an advr.ea
“code of honor,” but in what is
ally denominated a rough and
he was considered by his adm.
Bide-holds, the. equal of Wilson, 01
sachusetts. Wilson is a noim ombata,
however, while Wade woui.l rather ii-h
than eat. °
Well, we see that this Western agita
tor has again been heard lrom; he took
his seat in the Senate at iho beginning
of the present session, hut until last
Thursday he sat as modestly ns a vuung
~~ y at a christening. '| her, he w.-s heard
femt by oliering "apetition from citizens
of Ohio asking that John C. Fremont he
made a Lieutenant General.” j u otfern
mg this modest petition, we do not see
that Mr. Wade offered any observations
m support of it; and in this we are some
what surprised. It js true that the path
hnder has sustained considerable dam
age of late, but the plucky Senator
should not abandon him on that account-
Until this session no one was louder in
the advocacy of the moat absurd theo
ries than this same Ben Wade, of Ohio.
Has the change of public sentiment in
his State, which elected a Union Gover
nor ana Legislature last (all anything to
do with his present conservative policy?
His successor is to be chosen this winter,
which may account for his moderation.
If this be so it serves to show that the
wildest of these agitators keep their eyes
upon the main chance, and that in their
phrenziest moments there is always
method in their madoesB* , ' ,
Mason and alido!!
I'rom a private letter written by one
closely connected with the Administra
tion at Washington to a gentleman in
this city, we learn that little or no ap
prehension is entertained of a difficulty
with Great Britain. He says: “the feel
ing here is calm and confident on the
Mason and Slidell aflair. Great Britain
will not be half so unreasonable as many
suppose from the tone of her journals.
Suggestive—Very.

Whatever may be thought of the personal char

We give below the account of the battle
of Draineaville, as published in the New

. As lh °y approached Drainesvillo, while in
[ a DKlt of pine Wo.ds, the “Buck Tails,”
. who had bcon in front, as skirmishers, fell
„ upon tbs Ninth, who then took the
; advance, the “IMles” changing ground to
flank the enemy, who had been seen in
the wroJi. On first entering the wood"
the Ninth saw the enemy some twenty!
live yards ahead, but fearing tl„, v micht
m P art of U»« “Buck Tails,” di j'r.ot lire
until Onpt. Galway called out to them to
shaw their colors, when they oxhibiu <i a
secession flag And fired a volley. The
Ninth returned their lira standing in line
of baUle and loading and firing at will _
The onomy fired four volleys before any of
our men wero wounded. Their battery
did little or no harm, while ours, planted
on the road, did fearful elocution among
them. The fight ha i lasted half an hour,
and the Ninth had fired tin rounds, when
Col. Kane's regiment charged upon the
rabe's and the firing ceased by order of
Gen. Ord. The enemy, at the t!r=l charge,
fled precipitately, throwing away arms,
haversacks, canteens, clothing, t kc , a!
they ran, to lighten them* •lives. They
pursued three quarters of a mile through
th? woods, when it being impossible to
overtake them, our troops returned to tbo
I! rid and secured tho spoils of battlo. They
remained'ualil night, and then left for
iheir respective camps, firing a sh.dl in
he direction of Leesburg before their de
parture, to lolsthe rebels know they were
still about '

berison, ail distinguished themselves in
ihe action. At the first lire, Lieut Col
Anderson's horse look fright and threw
him; he rose and with commendable cool,
news, led his men forward on foot. (Jol
Jackson also dismounted and went into
tna light on foot, urging on his command
nobly, though Lhis was scarcely necessary
’•J every man seemed “eager fo'r the fray ”
Alaj Snodgrass’ horse was wounded oariy
in me engagement, and he was obliged lb
dismount, but Dover forgot Ins duties
Inere were numerous instances of personal
courage and daring, and not a man was
seen to flinch. Pennsylvania may well
feel pruud of the victory gained by her
stalwart sons at Drainosviile,

iho morning dawned dear and beautiful, wiih'a
heary white frost all about, which, however, soon
disappeared under (ho genial rajs of our Virginia
So . Eight companies of our regiment were de
tailed for picket duty, to K „ out to-day, but tb.e>r
der was subsequently countermanded, and all
hands are now engaged in , uttmg up and arrang
ing their new tome, sweeping the streets, planum
oeauidut evergreen tree..; slmitb.ry, building
arches at tho end of each street, in the centre of
which is Maced the later designating the com
pany. Col. Black said a few days since, that he
wasgomg to hare the best arranged, cleanest and
neatest comp on this side of the Potomac, or any
where else and he has kept his word most abun
dant.y. Aided by the men, who areal! anxious to

By the w„y, speaking of the new unifotm, 1 ob
serve hy the a.vjuiclc, that tr.e 1 real editor ot that
paper has a eurto-tly to see how “Cussewego”
would lock 11, It lam very eorry but, can vee no
way to graffy turn. Col. Black would scarcely 1-t
mo go home for the purpose; there is, of course
no artist who ooold do the subject justice, tnd
there being no probability c f the aforesaid local
pu ling bimse f in the w»y of danger, by coming
out here, he will have to hr. go his earnest and
