THE OBJECT OF THE DRAFT.
- It is tboug,l4 : iii:Pome qUarters that the
Administration is ,preparing to not only
put down the 'rebellitin,but to he in con
dition when that-feat , is, accomplished, to
‘,be able to defy. in arms."
prasuriind.tb ho'the' real cause pf
the present -draft. It cannot be that the
Administration 'thinks more soldiers than
we:already have necogary to eonqiier a
rebellion which is already crumbling.
Within the past thirty days we have cap
tared fully one third of the rebel armies,
and, from all accounts, the balance is fiat
losing hope, and becoming entirely de
moralized. The total loss of the Confed
emus, during the last twenty days, in
killed, wounded and missing, fully reaches
one hundred thousand men. A proclama
tion from the Preeident, giving : pardon
and protection to . the ,Sbuthern people)
would, we verily believe, scatter the con
spirators in three months; now that the
rebel armies are - crippled, all that is re
quired to secure peace is the destruction
of the rebel leaders.
Were peace between us firmly establish
ed, our present armies, augmented by the
present draft of three hundred thousand,
would make a formidable -power for any
contingency that might arise. In the ab
sence of something more serious upon the
part of John Bull, Napoleon might be re
quested to withdraw his invaders from
Mexico; and he would have to do it. We
would, in that case, net only preach the
Munroe doctrine, but be able to enforce
it. Were it not for our present domestic
troubles the French would not now be
planting a colony upon our South western
border.
THE LATE NEW YORK RIOT.
Now that the late menet:outs and infa
mons riot in New York has been put down,
the newspapers are becoming quite mod
erate in their discussion of the characters
who composed the rioters. From the
tone of the Republican papers of New
York, last week, and from the wood -cuts
in the pictorial sheets, we were led to
infer' that the mob was composed ex
clusively of Irishmen—or, to speak more
by the cards; American citizens of Hi
bernian descent. It turns out not Lo be so.
There was a
.full proportion of Irish in
the riot, but the misfortune of that im
pulsive people is, that one of them
willi'in such cases, attract more attention
than a half dozen others of less excitable
temperaments. In some localities during
the heat of the disturbance, the Irish in
many localities struggled heroically and
successfully to save both the lives and
property of their fellow-citizens. See the
gallant Col. O'Brien and the Irish under
him; *no man 'could have done more to
preserve the peace of the city. He lost
his life, taken by the mob, and that too in
the most shocking and revolting manner.
We presume that, as is usually the case,
the real culprits in the late riots will nev
er he known, unless they reveal their in
famy themselves, which is not likely.
The country knows something of New
York with its multitudinous haunts of int
famy, of various sorts, and we all know
how easily, a riot Can - be raised Flare
there is stich abundant material as - the
Metropolis can in a moment. vomit forth
from its fifty thousand dens of crime, de
bandery and eorrnption. But these cun
ning, and professional pickiockets -and
knaves, generally escape detection, while
the noisy, awkward and impulsive tool be
comes the victim. The Tribune, which
was last week rather heavy on the Irish;'-
closes an article in Monday's issue a
folows :
"Let ils entreat /he honest, sober, frugal
worthylrish segment of our pootilalion whether
of city . , or country. to bear pa.tiectly the onpro

.the Peace Question in London.
LONDON, July 4.
The excitement growing out of the re
cognition debate is on the increase; and
the question is to be farther , discussed en
Monday a week. In the meantime the
cotton question has, been introduced, and
last night there was a long talk on the sub
ject. The fact is the cotton interest is
getting alarmed. Peace between the North
and the South would be the instant ruin
of thousands ; and may friends of the
South,
- who but yesterday were hot for re
cognition; happening at this moment to be
large holders, now dread nothing so much.
The Liverpool merchants and speculators
believe in the existence of three and one
half million bales in the Southern States,
which the raising of the blockade would
throw into the market, and knockathe
price at once down to ninepence And
then what a crash there would be ! As a
matter of self-interest, therefore—the
great law which controls merchants, men,
and ministers—all the cotton " bulls" are
getting frightened at the idea of recogni•

RAVINGS OP A RUFFIAN.
Oar comments, in Monday's Post, in
articles in the New York Post and the
Pittsburgh Gazette, in relation to the con

umn of ruffianly ravings from the latter,
entirely in keeping with its French pie

The Pittsburgh Post and the
Conscription.
"The Pittsburgh Poet, of yesterday, has an arti
cle full of the must virulent copperhead venom
—full of the most audacious lying--and charac
terizei by the most dastardly spirit of a renegade
conspirator against liberty, who would swallow
the 'sop to Cerberus' from the bands of the slaveholders with: the aviditrof-that or any otherhun
gry monster.
"Bur the. Post lhail allayed . its cited of treason
when the chances of affect i ng the game or,' over

it too long in hand, for there never has been, an
opportunity in this thoroughly loyal community
for any trick of the Northern conspiratots, whose
or-an the Post is, to-succeed in getting up even
t.ie briefest show of opp. salon to the war. It
held it, we should SUN) so, till the time appoint

when the compiotters thought that they could
best make a handle of the draft, to excite disaf-
feo:ion among teat class which the Post tics the
mach-abused privilege of supplying with reeding
matter; butr as the programme foiled—as Lee's

Pittsburgh Poet do? What con d do, when it
was left as solitary as a rubbing -pool in an unten
anted pasture-field in winter?" '
The shameful character of this is only
equalled by its stupidity. The idea of one
keeping his card until " the game is over
and gone," is'itc weighty and'original con
ception. Our chief trouble is to know to
which one of the Gazette people the la
urinous idea belongs. We suspect, how.
ever, that the military editor, who-

Union Peeling South.
The Raleigh Standard is in favor of a
reconstruction of the Union, and thinks
the probable terms of reconstruction lie-
tween the North and South will be the
adoption of a gradual emancipation eyk•
tern by all the rebellious States, which
North Carolina, in common with the oil,
er slave Stafes, will accept if the Federal
Government insists upon the same as the
only terms that can be granted ; notw;th
standing the life of the institution is not
in the least impaired by this war, as gen
erally believed at the North. Nothing but
a great standing army between the mas•
ters and the slaves could impair the in•
stitution, over which is thrown the shield
of State and municipal laws, together with
the inherent will cf the Southern people.
Hence these terms are the beet the Gov-
ernment can offer and the hest the South
can accept.
The Raleigh State Journal alleges the
discovery of a secret political organiza
tion whose purposes are most infamous
and treasonable, which has doubtless ram
ifications thronghout the State, and says
that developments may swiftly be made
which will surely startle the most apathe

The New York Riots
Letter Gem Mir. James T. Brady.

SrNDAY, July 16, 1863. lY
Whi'e 1 was in Washington, detained
there by the interruption ofqavel between
that city and Bahia:kin, the recent riot
broke out.
Certain individaahi,: who spoke rather
what they wished, than what they know,
uggested that the crowd would assail my
residence..
I do
- not believe that any_ rioters of this
city ever contemplated=-any Such •move
ment, 13utif they had. made an, attempt
of this kind they would have regretted the
'measure, tassure you.. • •• •
I know very well to whose
.ingenious
suggestions I am indebted. for this expres
.43i0t1 of a threat, and address you merely
for the purpose of .saying to the mob, and
• to all men who feel inclined to take a part
in•a mob, two things: -
let. There is no instance in the history
of mankind in which a mob or riot did not
fail to win any permanent advantage.
2i, In most mobs of any, consequence
the exhibitions of courage have been by
those whom concealed agitations moved.
The agitators themselves have, as in the
.recent instances, remained in Bemire se
.crecy.
I nave heard with regret of the expres
sions made by men claiming to be gentle
men, having property and influence, who
have privately checkled over the . merci.
fess massacre of unoffending negroes.
Not one of these men would dare to
expose his precious person in any of the
murderous exploits he praises.
And now let me say to the men who
have been or mean to be engaged in a
riot:—Why should you expose yonkselvea
to all the danger, and the men who set
you on keep out of it 7„ I tell you, my de
luded fellow-citizens, that not °neat the
scheming demagogues who urge you to the
peril they never intend to encounter—not
one of them will ever - consent to act with
you or to lead you.
Try it ! Go to any of the men who ap
plead your course or pretend to be your
friends, and you will find that they 'don't
dare to tight for your opinions as you do.
I detest murderers, housebnrners and
thieves. I regard neither with honor, but
I have more respect for the misguided man
who opposes by violence a law which he
deems unjust or oppressive than for the
miserable sneaks who, to carry out their
opinions or to promote their views, skulk
in the rear while they expose their foolish
but courageous dupes in the front.
The people of New York will find out
that the way to avoid injustice is not to
court or follow the directions of political
"rings" or cliques; but to rely upon the
assistance of those who, like myself; mean
that our country shall continue to exist
and no icjuatice be done to any of her
citizens.
I do not admire the provision in the
Conscript Law — generally called the three
hundred dollar clause ; but I will obey the
law. I will pay this amount for any four
men of family whose courage being good
are yet so placed that they . cannot leave
their fatuities. I were richer I would
do more. I will also do all iu my power
to have the right to draft tasted before the
judiciary as a constitutional question. Bat
beg and implore the brave but misled
men, who are willing to fight for their
principles, not to let themselves be used
by political sneaks, who don't care how
many houses are burned or lives sacrificed
if their own schemes can be promoted
consibtently with their own personal safe

It will be recollected that Gov. Yates,
of Illinois, prorogued the Legislature of
that State when about appropriating

up as high as $lOO, $5OO, etc. It was one

Free Speech.
Extract of a speech dilivered by Hon.
A. O. Riddle, Republican member o
Congress from Ohio, in February last :
"The freedom of speech is the last
franchise a free people will surrender, and
our millions will exercise it in the midst
of no matter what calamities. They will
discuss the events and management of the
war, and the humblest of them have an
interest in it equal to that of the first citi
zen, and they must and may discuss his
(the President's) acts with a free and
nianly ken."

Got One
Peter Apple, of Oakland, Indiana, was
lately recruited for the Eleventh Indiana,
and took part in the attempt to storm one
of the Vicksburg batteries. The rebel
fire was so destructive that our army re
coiled. Apple, the raw recruit,"
" did'nt sea" the backward movement
and kept going ahead until he came right
on to one of the rebel guns, caught a gun
tier by the collar and brought him within
our lines, saying " Boys. whY didn% you
coins ? Every fellow might .have got
one." We have heard of no more daring
act. of bravery than this little incident
since the war began.-Louisa/71e Democrat,
"The Invasion of the North"
-- Opinions of the Loudon Press
--The Case of Chit WIII-o'-the
Wisp, etc.
The invasion of 'the North, as , installed
hide news ppr the Cite of-New ,York'
attiactaihe attention of English jour- ,
nals. Tihe London Times remarks that
Lee seen2s to . belholding a sufficient force
on the South of the Potomac to check
mate Hooker and hold him paralyzed,
while he is pushing his forces steadily
forward in Maryland and Pennsylvania,
to prepare the way perhaps for . some
more important movement, on - Washing
ton- or Baltimore. The North has to
face an organized invasion on the largest
scale, directed by a leader who has de
feated all their generals in succession
with forces far inferior to the powerful
army he now commands. The capital is
fast being surrounded; the railways are
seized ; the enemy is spreading fast over
one of the richest and most populous
States. On the other side there is an in
expressible attitude of helplessness in the
Washington government and army.—
Hooker succeeds in making the sole ar
my of defense on which the federate can
depend, as useless in a great
„emergency
as seventy thousand men can possibly :
be.
If Lee suceeeds.in isolating the capital
Hooker will be obliged to meet him at
last, for the government cannot possibly
afford to be shut off from the Northern and
Western States. Their presses and their
public men have dinned into their ears so
incessantly the weakness of the rebels and
their own invincible superiority, that it is
impossible to rouse them to a sense of
their real danger.
The Daily News remarks that the inva
sion will show whether the Northern•pto•
pie - ars still earnest iu the prosecution of
the war, and•will furnish conclusive proof
as to whether the continuance of the civil
war is or. is- not. justifiable or likely to
prove in the end successful. It would be
absurd to organizaexpeditions to the South
if the states from which the men of those
expeditions are obtained are content to
submit to the southern invaders.
The Morning Post says that whatever
may be Gen. Lee's designs, he is taking
his time to mature them, and evidently
contemplates striking, if possible, a de
cisive blow. This he would not attempt
without such a force as would render vic
tory almost certain.
The Morning herald does not think
that Lee intends to capture either Wash
ing, Baltimore, or Philadelphia. Pitts
burgh, the great foundry of the United
States, would be a greater prize. But it
is quite likely that Lee has no such ambi
tious scheme, and that his march across
the frontier is dictated:by the desideratum
of making the enemy's cormiry aupport
the war, and of teaching northern citizens
some of misfortunes. The undisturbed
possession of the Shenandoah valley in it
self gives Lee the command of a very pro•
ductive district at harvest time. The
pressure of confederate troop 3 will teach
the North something of the hardships of
the war they are forcing on the South.
If
Lee can hold his own for the next two
months, he will hrve achiever' great things
for the South, even it he stops where he
is. It will show to Europe that tle nation
which boasts of its power to conquer sev
en millions of freemen cannot defend its
own soil. It will prove even to tee North
itself the utter hopelessness of its dream
of subjugation. If Hooker attacks he
must do so at a disadvantage. If he leaves
the enemy unmolested, he gives him amo
ral triumph which would tell most injuri
timely upon public opinion in the North
and in Europe.
The Cdse of the Will -o'-the-Wisp.
The correspondence relative to the sei•
zure:of-the schooner Will - o'-tlae•Wisp by
the United States ship Montgomery is
published. The facts of the' ease as de.
tailed before the United States prize court
era already known. The court held that
the capture was not warranted, but owing
to Boma suspicious circumstances the
court decreed that the captors should only
pay their own expenses. Correspondence
ensued upon this, and Earl Russell re
quested L,rd Lyons to state to Mr. Sew
ard that her majesty's government were
dissatisfied with the decision, and consid-
ered that some compensation should be
granted to the owners. Mr. Sewa:d
re
plied that if the owners were dissatisfied
they might carry :he case to the Court of
Appeal. Earl Russell therefore writes to
Lord Lyons requesting him t; inform Mr.
Seward that her majesty's government
have heap d with regret the answer which
he has returned on behalf of the United
States, and still hopes he will rconsider
the matter.
"The circumstances of the case," he
says, "presents so clear au instance of un
mistakable seizure, and the ground elle
ged by the judge for not awarding the costs
at least, if not also damages, is so inade
quate on the face of it as to enable Mr
Seward. upon consulting the law officers .
of the United States government, to grant
the redress prayed for without subjecting
the injured parties to the delay and ex
pense of further judicial proceedings.
This expression of opinion is duly made
by Lord Lyons, and Mr. Seward in a long
reply states that if 80 it would be "in
cumbent" on the part of the United States
government to withdraw their confidence
from the judicial tribunals of the country.
In accordance with the directions of Earl
tinsel' the case was not pressed further,
and there the matter rests.
• The Times has an editorial on the sub
ject, and is glad that Mr. Seward's peev
ish letter was not replied to. It says :
" While we sympathize, with the loss and
inconvenience inflicted on the parties in•
terested in the Will-'o the %' by, we have
no reason to be dissatisfied with the gen
eral tenor of the judgment, and nothing to
gain, as a nation, by pushing the preten
sions of neutrals beyond their settled lim
its. Had the ship been condemned, and
that condemnation confirmed on appeal,
it would have been our duty to demand
redress. but we cannot compel, and ought
not to expert, an angry belligerent to be
generous as well as just."

ita growing unpopularity at the North, nd
the Confederate sticcess. , a in the very
neighborhood of Washington.
The Times says "We may expect in a
week to hear of President Davis being in
Washingtoio—almost a decision of the war
itself, compelling overtures of peace 'from
its unsuccessful defenders."
The Army and Navy Gazette says

ing Lincoln, should another Governmen
address us from Washington, it may be
difficult, indeed, impossible; to refuse to

GER'S CREEK, July `10,_ . 9 . P..
Col. Richmond, A. Ai Gen.—We chased
John Morgan and his command ' overr fifty
miles to day. Often' Ifeayy "Skirmighing
for six or seven miles between the Forty.
fifth Ohio of. Col. Walford's brigade;
which was in the advance, and the'enCitily.
We succeeded in bringing the enemy to a
stand about three o'clock this afternoon,
when a fight ensued which lasted en hour
when the rebels fled, taking refuge upin
a very high bluff.
I sent a flag of truce demanding an im
mediate and unconditional surrender. of
blorgan and his command. The flag. Wan
received by Col Coleman and other officers
who come down and asked a personal in-'
terview. They asked, an hour ‘for consul
tation. I granted forty minutes, in whichi
time the command, excepting Moro:in,
who deserted his command, taking.-with
him a very small squad, surrendered.
It area my understanding that Morgan
himself had surrendered, and learned that
it was the undemanding of Morgan's offi
cers'and men., The number of killed anal
wounded is considerable. The number'
of prisoners is between 1,000 and 1,500,
including a large number of Colonels, Ma.
jors and line officers.
I captured between six and seven haw
dred prisoners yesterday, and I think I
will capture Morgan himself to-morrow.
[Signed] SHACKELFOR.D,
Brigadr General.
Morgan's artillery and about ie 2,soo pris
oners, including Basil Duke, are expected
to arrive here to-day.
NEW YORE, July 21.--The Commercial's
Fortress Monte letter of the 18th,after
referring to the capture of FortPoWhat
tan' on James river, says: . • '
"Admiral Lee detached an ensign and
two boats crews as a garrison, while the
fleet moved further up the river. Shortly
after he had left, the rebels returned, and
gobbled up the insignificant garrison and
decamped. When one of the
pieces
opened on it. ne The fire was returd
the rebels withdrew. The latest reports
received here were to the effect that Ad
miral Lee had attacked Fort Darling, but
with what success is not known.
Returned prisoners from Richmond
don't think that any of. Braggiefforces
have reached there. , Gen. D. H. Rill
commanded the,troops in Richmond.
Gen. Gilmore will be left in supreme
command in the attack on Charleston.
Foster's headquarters will be at. Fortress
Monroe, and his operations confined to
North Carolina and Virginia.
A Richmond paper of the 14th reports
the Federals landing in considerable force
at Brandon, on James river, doubtless, it,
says to make a raid on the:Weldon and
Petersburg road. Brandon is thirty miles
from Petersburg.
The Post's Washington dispatch says
our cavalry have captured large numbers
of stragglers from Lee's retreating army
in the last two days.
