GEN.-JOHN A. DIX.
We perceive that this distinguished gen
tisman has received another mark of con
aeration, from the Administration; he
has been appointed to a new command.
which is styled the "middle department,"
the headquarters of which are at Balti
more, Md. Gen. Dix is a gentleman of
'transcendent' ability, and has, as a military
commander, shown resources equal to his
civil qualifications.
Exceptiorthe few months that Gen. Dix
served as Secretary of the Treasury, at the
close of Mr. Bnchanan's administration,
he held no governmental position, since
1848, until President Lincoln made him a
General of volunteers. In 1845 he was
elected to the United States Senate, to fill
the unexpired term of Silas Wright, (a
great man.) in that body; and he showed
himself to be a worthy successor of so il
lustrious a statesman. In the debates up
on the constitutional power of the govern
ment, to prevent the extension of slavery
to territory, the field of discussion
was abandoned to Mr. Calhoun on the one
side and Mr. Dix on the other. Others,
- of course, participated; buttheexhanstion
of the subject WM by these two eminent
logicians. The reeareh, constitutional
subtleties and rigid logic of the astute
Carolinian, were not too great for the la
borious and placid New Yorker: he estab
lished, beyond controversy, the eoustitn-
tional power of the government to pro
hibit the extension of .livery, although
in but very few cases was he desirous of
- --exercising it. Territory in danger of be
coming slave, he would save by positive
enactment, but the agitation of the sub
ject, in relation to regions like Kansas and
Nebraska,_he was opposed to. In a word,
• Gen. Dix was a tar-seeing, -Sagacious and
. virtuous Democratic statesman, of the
Wright school, and not a sectional declaim
er,- whose object was geographical agita
tion for partizan ends and purposes. lie
belonged to a class of statesmen, who ap
pear to be extinct, whose places are now
filled by the narrowest partizans. At that
period Of the Senate's history, there were
among its members, Webster, Calhoun,
Clay, Benton, Berrien, Cuss. Douglas and
Dix, and others of almost equal ability;
but all statesmen of enlarged experience.
Now we have every littlepolitical trickster,
who has gained any notoriety at all, aspir
ing to Senatorial dignity. We have, in a
short time. most lamentably degenerated.
Think of a seat in the rnited States Sen
ate being up to he gambled for, by Simon
Cameron, and the spotted reptile Forney,
each proved to be a scoundrel, by the reve
lations of the other, but both, at the pres
ent time, the chief; of corruption at the
Capital. Each the advocate of the other's
baseness and both like "Pierre and Gather"
joint conspirators, hecauQe of disappointed
ambition and wounded vanity. These are
the most dangerous of aU public charac
ters; with that class "the eye always *inks
at the hand, — and the end justifies the
means.
The older of the two persons alluded to,
1 said to be about to depart upoh his mis
sion to Russia: it would be a blessing if he
could induce the other to accompany him.
But, we know of nothing the Russian gov
ernment has done to us to wish her such an
infliction; were it England it would be
quite the contrary. The fastening of two
such persons upon the government of John
Bull, would be charming revenge for his
- txhibitions of sympathy for the American,
' , be cause. We feat,hetree - ezt," - that For
•s engageaymirtill compel him to stay
lepifte fulfillment of his contract
.e Black Republicans, to play out
,las Democracy until the fall elec-
ins, is too binding and imperative to al
low him to take the journey mentioned.
We can assure him, however, thathe might
as well go with Simon; hi Douglas De
mocracyis pretty well exhausted; thesham
is understood; the . coon is treed and he
might as well come down. Breckinridge
and Bell might as well appeal to their late
Northern supporters for sympathy and sup
port, as Forney asking to be followed in
hia pilgrimage to abolitionism, by any hon
est friend *of the lamentable Douglas. We
turn from the thought of such political I
highwaymen, and congratulateour readers
upon the elevation of Oen. Dix, a gentle
man whose integrity is above suspicion.
PROGRESS
One of. the visible signs of improvement
in public morals, is the number and char
aster of the Investigating Committees ap
Pointed by the Legislature of Pennsylva
nia. Our-city has been honored with the
' presence of the "Shoddy," the "Bank,"
and the Hopkins or Tonnage Tax Com
mittees. Their attendance here did uot,
we are assured, indicate the presence of
criminals, but the locality was thought to
be prolific with - witnesses. What progress
has been made in enlightening honest
Christians of this year of the turpitude
and general rascality of the Members of
the Legislature of last year we are not in
ured.
We preinune there will he no difficulty in

There is. justice and there is fairness in
this proposition. If Congress shall adopt
the idea contained in the first resolution. a
large amount of revenue eould he raised,
which,owingtothe immense re venue: deri v -
ed by the various railroads of the country
from carrying United States troops and
stores, would he easily, and no doubt
cheerfully, paid.
But, if Congress shall refuse to lay this
tax, there is no reason why the State should
not avail herself of so easy, proper and ob
vious a method of raising revenue. We
have heartily apposed the tonnage-tax
levied on the Pennsylvania Road, because.
in thofirst:place, it was the only road in the
Commonwealth thus burdened, and, be
cause, in the second place, after the Rail
road bought the Public Works, at a very
high price, the motive and i.x.cusc for con
tinning the tax--the rivalry of the railroad
to the State Works—were entirely NMIOV
ed.

While we are clearly and earliestly in
favor of this new tonnage tax. we have
little hope that it can become a law. Other
States, and citizens of other States, have
I too much interest in preeenting the pas

PERSONAL.
An Elegant Extract
Our desire, in copying the foll,oving or
tiele from the Philadelphia Mercuiy, is not
because of the compliment it pays us, per
sonally, but to show the estimation in which
that blistered demagogue, Forney, is held
by those who have the best means of know
ing him. The Mercury says:
"The attack of John W. Forney on Col.
James P. Barr, of the Pittsburgh Post, in
the Press of Friday last, is looked upon
here as the richest joke of the age—yes, a
radiCal cure for dyspepsia ! The idea of
Forney singling out men that the lamented
Douglas "despised" is too good to be lost.
The fact that Judge Douglas never hesita
ted. tg speak of Forney with loathing con
tempt, and as one totally devoid of political
kntegrity, is patent to every prominent man
in the land. His efforts to thrust himself
uponl the public as the special champion of
the lamented Douglas, has always been well
understood throughout the whole country.
It frequently occurs that in order to give a
deep and fatal stab. the assassin approach
es as near his victim as possible—hence the
policy of Forney inprofessing attachment
for one whom it was his pecuniary interest
to sacr(fice.
"The secret of this attack is the more
palpable because of the certainty of Col.
Barr's nomination for Surveyor General by
next Democratic State Convention. His
indomitable zeal and censistent advocacy
of Democratic men and measures,
point
him out asa shining mark for those Repub
licans, whose principles can only be meas
ured by the purse strings of the National
Government."
We commend this extract to t h e profound
and patient consideration of the Pittsburgh
Gazette. That "glorious Douglas Demo
crat,", Forney, has furnished our neighbor
lately with many partizan'ichemcs, intend
ed to further betray the friends of the late
Judge Douglas; the above brief article
will show our neighbor how his preceptor
is estimated by the friends of the lamented
statesman in Philadelphia. Forney' s game
is by a zealous profe , ,sion for Judge Doug
las, to more effectually be able to attack
the Democratic leaders of Pennsylvania,
• whom he denounces as having been Breck
inridge men. This having been practiced
once will not be successful again. The
Democracy of our State are a unit against
- Southern rebels and Northern abolitionists;
they belong to man, or set of men, and
Forney might as well come out openly an
abolitiOnist, for he can no longer impose
upon any friend of the late Judge Douglas.

llK.teoumirmts GEN. SHIELDS' DIVISIOS, 1 I
Winchester, Va., March 26, 1862. j
1 will give you a brief account of our
late operations. My reconnoissance :be
yond Strasburg. on the 18th and 19th inst.,
discovered Jackson reinforced, in a strong
position, near New Market, within sup
portitor distant - , of the main body of the
rebels under Johnston., It w a s necessary
to decoy him fro m that position. There•
fore I fell hack rapidly to Winchester cm
the 20th, as if in retreat, marching my
hole command nearly thirty miles in one
day. My force was placed at night in a
secluded position. two miles from Wm
ehester, on the Martinsburg road.
On the 21st the rebel cavalry, under
Ashby. showed themselves to our pickets,
within sight of Winchester. On the 22d
all of Gen. Banks' command, with the ex
ception of my division, evacuated Win
chester. en route for Centreville. This
mot - mi - mt. and the masked position of my
division, made an' impression upon the
inhabitants, some of whom were in secret
communication with the enemy, that our
army had left, and that nothing remained
hut a few regiments to garrison this place.
Jackson was signalized to this effect.
saw their signals and divined their mean
ing. About live o'clock on the afternoon
of the 22d, Ashby, believing that the town
was almost evacuated, attacked our pickets
and drove them in. This success increased
his delusion.
It became necessary, however, to repulse
them for the time being. I therefore. or
dered forward a brigade, and placed it in
front, between Winchester and the enemy.
I only let them see, however, two regi
ments of infantry. two batteries of artillery
and a small force of cavalry, which he mis
took as the whole force left to garrison and
protect the place. In a little skirmish that
evening, while placing the artillery in posi
tion. I was ,truck by a fragment of a shell,
which- broke my arm above the elbow, in
jured my shoulder, and damaged me other
wise to such an extent that I have lain
prostrate ever situp.
commenced making preparations for
any' emergency that might occur that night
or the next morning. Under cover of the
tight f ordered an entire brigade (Kim.
ball's) to take up a strong position in ad-
Vitnee. I pushed forward tour batteries,
having them planed in a strong posi
tion 10 support the itifantry. I placed Sid
li van's brigade, on both flanks from being
hinted. anti I held Tyler's brigade in re
serve. to Operate against any point that
might be assailed in front. In this position
1 awaited and expected the enemy's at
tack next morning. My advance brigade
was two miles from the town, its pickets
extending perhaps a mile further along the
turnpike leading to Strasburg.
About eight. o'clock in the morning I
sent tbrward two
.experienced officers to
reconnoitre die front and report indica
tions of the enemy. They returned in an
hour, reporting no enemy in sight, except
Ashby's flaw of cavalry, infantry and ar
tillery, which by this time had become fa
miliar and contemptible to us. Gen.
Banks, who was yet here in person, upon
hearing this report. concluded that Jack
son could not be in front possibly. or hi.
decoyed away so far from the main body of
the rebel army. In this opinion I, too,
began. to concur, eunelteling that Jackson
wit- ton sagacious 10 be caught in such it
trap. t Banks t heretore, left for Wush
ington. Ilis staff officers were directed to
tbllow the same day, by way of Centre
ville..
K nowi g the crafty enemy, however. 1
had to deal with. 1 ommitted no precaut ion.
3ly whole force was concentrated, and pre
pared to support Kimball's brigade , which
was in advance. About half-past ten
o'clock it become evident we had a con
siderable fore., before us: but the enemy
still concealed himself so adroitly in the
woods that it wa.i impossible to estimate it.
I ordered a portic,n of the artillery forward
open fire and unmask them. Br
d.s
~teestlivc began to show theniselve.z. They
planted battery after liattcry in strong po
sition, on the centre and on both flanks.
Our artillery responded, and this contin
ued until Munn three o ' clock in the after•
noon. when I directed a column of infant
ry to carry it battery:on their left flank and
to assail that Hank, which was done prompt -
ly and splendidly by Tyler's brigade. aid
ed by some regiments front the other
brigades.
The tire of our infantry was so close and
desiruoiye that it made havoc in their
ranks. The result was the capture of
their guns on the left and the forcing back
of their wing on the centre , thus placing
them in a position to be routed by a genet.-
al attack. which was made about five
o'clock by all the infantry, and succeeded
in driving them in flight from the field.
Night fell upon us at this stage, leaving us
in possession of the field of battle, two guns
and four caissons. three hundred prisoners
and about one thousand stand of small
arm <. Our killed in this engagement can
not exceed one hundred Men, wounded
two Inoidred and thirty-three. The ene
my's killed and wounded exceed one
thousand. The inhabitants of the adja
cent villages carried them to their houses
as they were removed front the field of
battle.
HottFes between the battle field and
Strasburg, and even far beyond. have since
been found tilled with the dead and dying
of the enemy. Graves have been found far
removed from the road, where the inhabi-
tants of the country buried them as they
died. General Banks, in his pursuit of
the enemy beyond Strasburg afterwards,
found houses on the road, filled in this
manner, and presenting the most ghastly
spectacle. The havoc made in the ranks
of the rebels has struck this whole region
of country with terror. Such a blow had
never fallen on them before, and it is more
crushing because wholly unexpected.
Jackson and his stone wall brigade, and all
the other brigades accompanying him, will
never meet this division in battle again.
During the night they managed to carry
off their artillery in the darkness. We
opened upon them by early light next
morning, and they commenced to retreat.
Gen. Banks returned from Harper's Ferry
between nine and ten o'clock, A. M.,
and placed himself, at my request, at the
head of his command, ten miles from the
battle field, pursuing the enemy. Rein
forcements which we had ordered back
from Williams' division, and which I had
ordered forward during the night, now
came pouring in, and with all these we
continued the pursuit, pressing them with
vigor and with repeated_ and destructive
attacks as far as Woodstock, where .he
halted from sheer exhaustion. The ene- '
my's suffering's have been terrible, and,
such as they have nowhere else endured
since the commencement of this war;
and
yet such were their gallantry and high
of-discipline that at no time during the
battle or pursuit did they give way to
panic. They fled to Mount Jackson, and
are by this time in communication with
the main body of the rebel army. I hope
to be able in a few days to ride in a buggy
andplace myself at the head of my com
mand•• but I have neither sufficient force
nor sufficient rank to. do that service to the
country that I hope and.feel I am capable
of. No man could be better treated than I
am by General Banks ; and yet if he and his
command had been here on the 23d iron
would have heard nothing- of a fight ~bec

DR. B. DESSEIRRTH:—
My Dear Sir—l ant now seventy-nine years old,
and for the last twenty-eight years have been a
constant user of your Vegetable Universal Pills
when sick, fully realising the advantage of en
forcing purgation with a medicine, which, while
harmless in its nature, removes all impurities. I
can safely say that vigorous old ago I now enjoy
has been caused mainly by the timely use of
Brandreth's Pills. I have had in these last twon
ty-eight years several tits of sickness, and occa
sionally some Infirmity of age would press upon
me. At. theie times I have always found your
pills a ante remedy, giving me not only health but
strength. I consider them, not only invaluable
as a purgative, but also as a tonic, I have never
during the last twenty-eight years used any other
medicine whatever, being Dom - jure& by exPeri
ence, that none was as good. Brandreth's Pills
have also been freely used by my neighbors in
every kind of sickness, and have been never
known to fail when promptly adminiotered.
