GENERAL FREMONT.
ThR course of the Abolition press to

humiliating.'' If any man in America is
entitled to Abolition admiration and
gratltude it is he.' Placed alongside of
the miserable story teller and harlequin
Lincoln, 1 and how amazing is the con
trast?' In one we perceive the bold,
high-toned and original reformer, in the
other we ; see the crawling and subser
vient ; imitator. The unsophisticated
reader, thferi, will naturally inquire why
it-is tiia,t'tio dashing Cavalier Fremont
is sO; shamefully maligned? The reason
is ‘notorious enough. Lincoln owns
the Abolition press of the country. There
is not one .paper of any consequence that
we knowi 0-f; from the great New York
blanket sheets down to the moßt con
tehiptible ih 1 this city, which has not a
direct (nonied Interest in the re-election
of ’.Lincoln. This is the reason, and a

One of those pensioned presses, in this
city, ‘yekterdiiy alluding to the remark
of I , jeiEM<iN , e that slavery was no longe r
a question of party, has the shameless
and brainless effrontery to comment as
follows; it'says:
We trust that Slavery will soon become llt
erallr’extinct in this country, but if this extinc

division? have disappeared, upon whal Liasu

Because the Southern rebellion lias
virtually disposed of tho question of slu
very, rt does not follow that Abraham
Lincoln is to be continued in power for
all time.to come. The friends -of Fre-
MONTand those of the coming Chicago
Convention do not take issue with the
President hecatrse of slavery,as our astul e
contemporary imagines. No, they op
posehis re-election because he is a base,
corrupt and 1 degenerate man, the tool i f
opulent designing monsters, whose
desires are to keep the country in Moody
warfare, as long as they can make a dol
lar out of the very sweat and agouy of
the people. This is the principal reason
why (he, independent, unbought and in
corruptible masses desire a change in

THE FUTURE OF AMERICAN
WOMEN*
The census report sljpffs that.nt the
commencement of the I wai,j-therß|
was a surplus of females? in the pbjaula?-
tion of the United St&tgKjp now 3 "
reversed under the d&pletfiiig processf
which lor three years -has'been so Tap£
idly going on in &mps and 6% bloody
battle-fields. An immense nu mber of
men < have fallen victims to the deadly
missiles hurled by the hands of coun
trymen, maddened by hate, and yet more
have dropped by the 'wayside, struck !
down by diseases incident to the avoca- !
tion of war. Many more have become ;
permanently disabled and are but the !
shattered remnants of corporeality. It j
is true there is still a large population j
of mules left at home, but they are j
mostly the aged, the very youthful, and j
the physically disabled. Thegreat mass ;
of the most vigorous portion of our men
have been taken for war purposes, and
•there is no telling how- many may yet
fall belore hostilities cease.
Two millions and a half, nearly, out
of a voting population of thiceand a
half millions, in iB6O, have been, at
various times, called to war from the
North alone. It is fair to presume that
nearly as 11111113* have been drawn from
the South into tho rebel ranks, and that
the mortality has amounted to as much
if not more than our own. Tims, taking
the destruction of life North and South,
and the maiming and disabling of men
for industrial purposes, and we have a
deplorable picture 10 contemplate for
the future. Had we the figures it would
no doubt appear that the proportion of
females is rapidly exceeding that of the
males—at least of able-bodied men
capable of labor.
The consequences to follow from this
state ot things can only be determined
by reference to those countries which
have suffered in population through a
long series of wars of much less ardor
and destructiveness than our own.
Take France, for instance, which has,
for a considerable period, carried on pet
ty and desultory warfare, and what do
we find? The entire population amounts
to 34,900,000. Of these 14,;100,000 are
engaged in agriculture, six millions and
a half (0,500,000) of whom are females,
either as owners of land, or, in still
larger numbers, laborers on the soil.
In the liberal professions—teachers, ar
tists, sages jemmts, Ac, —there* are sev
en hundred aud sixty thousand; [760,-
100;) physicians and apothecaries alone
amounting to 26,758, and sages femmes,
or midwives, to 12,666. In domestic ser
vice there are 387,730 men and 618,936
women. According to facts gathered
from a late French quarterly journal,
there were, out of the population of 34,-
900,000, upward 0f9,000,000 females ac
tively employed in the ways above spec
ified— or over one-fourth of the whole
population.
These facts go to show the etfe< t
which war has upon the destinies of the
sexes. The French are proverbial for
their politeness to and tenderness of
women, but stem necessity has compel
led them to train every nvnilnMr V nrr4
ana headTo wprk. From a companion
and gentle presiding angel at tb« domes
tic hearth, woman has been forced to
take her place at the plow and the coun
tcr pay the penalty of her country’s
indulgence in the expensive luxuries of
battles and glory. before us
the same future. Heretofore our wo
men have enjoyed as much of the ease
and comforts of life as could be desired
by them—few being compelled to adopt
the labor of men, and domestic employ-
ments being more a matter of choice to
them than of necessity. Thousands and
thousands of women will be bereft of
natural protectors, and millions of chil
dren thrown upon their own resources
or the labor of mothers. And what will
a mother not do for her children
Work is no obstacle to her; her life wil
be one long sacrifice; and thus we aha]
have our millions of women laboring in
the field, hardened and roughened by
exposure, and inducted into all the
wiles and sharp practices of the brazen
faced, over-reaching business world.
We must pay the penalty of the luxury
of war—and unjustly, though human
like, it will fall upon the “weaker ves
sel.”
FRIDAY'S BATTLE.
We make the following extracts from
the N. Y. Times of the events of Friday
last in the army of the Potomac:
The battle of Friday last was a much
more serious affair, both in itß original
conception, its actual character, and its
final consequence, than we had been led
to believe from the brief dispatches here
tofore given to the public. The inten
tion really was.that it should be the deci
sive battle of the campaign. The move
ments of the preceding days, culmina
ting in the possession of Cold Harbor—
an important strategic point—had drawn
our lines close in front of the Chicka
hominy, and reduced the military prob
lem to the torcing of the passage of that
river—a problem which, if solved in our
favor, would decide whether Richmond
could be carried by a coup do main if a
decisive victory should attend our arms
or, whether operations would settle
down to a siege in form. The great
struggle did not result in a success- and
though the enemy’s lines were carried
and temporarily held at two important
points, bur ass:ulting columns' were
finally compelled to abandon them. Prob
ably no action so important in its char
acter was ever crowded into so brief a
space of time—-ten terrible minutes in
;the eafly dawn: developed on the part
of the enemy suchstrength both bf p».
sition and force as to carry coiiviotion
that any victory that could - here be
achieved would be purchased at too
gteat a cost.
I All that matchless valor directed by
consummate skill could do, was done ;
hut it was in vain. In falling back, how
ever, the army was far from abandoning
all the ground it had trained. It held
and still holds the enemy with unrelax-
J ing clutch. Even now, onr lines are in
I many places within fifty yards Ol the en
emy’s works on the Chickahominv arid
whiloK is not clear how Gen. Grant rrtn
again make an advance on his immediate
front, it;wiU be equally difficult for him
to make his escape. The situation is
such that there • willnecessarily now be

thepassage of the ChickahomiDy, im the

Toads to Richmond, the rebels hadlplant

we have done is to feel this line by a
vigorous attack, in which, though: gain
ing some temporary' successes, and at
| one or two points actually carrying llie
j enemy's works, we have, on the whole,
; reached the conclusion that any victory
■ that could here be won must roijt too
! much-in its purchase. Ido not say this
as speaking with any authority, but only
as recording the general conviction of
the army. Such conviction, however,
when tho common judgment of such
men as have to-day led their j lines
against the enemy, is apt to be ofj itself
authority , and hence I think I may safe
ly predict that there will be no renewal
if the assault on the lines of the Ejhicka
hominy: that we must look to the re
sources of strategy to plant this army in
a position where, being at less of la dis
advantage, its valor will have a jbetter
promise of adequate'reward.
It is in this view that the action; of to
day assumes to me the aspect of tf great
reconnoissance. But it might jeasily
have been more. Were prudence-inot as
much a characteristic of Lieutl-Gen.
Grant’s mind as pluck; did he nofcknovc,
ns well l,ow and when to cry a halt as
in uid.-r an advance, he might: have
pushed tlu- aclioii from a reconnoissance
to a bloody battle; but to me it is clear
we should have had only another. Fre- i
ericksburg and its useless slaughter. ]
Gen. Grant is not to poor in resource
that he need tio this; and I think already |
his eyes are turned from the Chickahom- !

THE MILITARY SITUATION.
The following lu.id sketch of the mil
tary situation of the Potomac Army is
from the Philadelphia Aye. It is under
stood that l lie in for mail on is derived from
an officer who served with distinction
in Gen. McClellan's peninsular cam
paign'
General Graql lias again -ohamreu lit*
-pian or attacking Richmond Koral
most a week he contemplated a direct
attack upon Mechanicsville and Meadow
Bridge. He has now given that up, and
determined to pursue the McClellan
plan of crossing the C'hirkahominy he.
low New Bridge. This has been jnnde
a necessity ou account of the entilin''s
success ill holding their line of Works
on the North Bank of the Chickahom
iny, from Coal Harbor to Mechanics
villa.*. The iuterierenee with the Kedi nil
supply line has also had a large share
in changing the mode of attack.
General Grant receives his 9Upplios
from White House. A railroad ruus due
west lrom White House towards Rich
mond, crossing the Chickahuminy at
Bottom’s Bridge. This bridge is twelve
miles lrom White House, and six miles
below New Bridge. It is eleven miles
from Richmond. Coal Harbor is three
miles northeast of New Bridge, and
six miles north of Bottom’s Bridget A
road thirteen miles long runs from Coal
Harbor to White House. Grant’s natu
ral line of supplies will be along,this
road from White House 10 Coal Harbor.
The enemy, howevei, up to the time of
Grant’s changing his plan, controlled it.
Grant’s supplies, therefore, had to be
sent to his army by a circuitous route.
The wagon trains went up the roads on
the banks ol the Pamuukey to New Cas
tle and Hanover town, and thence to
the different portions of his army. The
distance was at least thirty miles and
we have no doubt from the severe storms
and the bad condition of the roads that
great difficulties have been experienced
in adequately supplying the ariny.
These are not overcome yet, though the
first result of Grant’s change of plan
should be the security of supplies reach
ing his army by the direct road from
White House to Coal Harbor.
On Wednesday last General Bumbide
was approaching Mechanicsville, Gen
eral Hancock, with the northern’flhnk
approached Meadow Bridge. General
Warren, with the centre, was south of
Burnside, and approached Gaines’ Mills.
General Wright, south of Warren, was
at Coal Harbor, and General Smith had
just came up and placed his corps in ipo
sition on tiie southern Federal flt&k
near Coal Harbor. The enemy* <4ere
strongly entrenched along the whole of
this line. Various reconnoissances de
veloped their determination to hold it.
General Grant, in his operations lie -
fore Wednesday, had in view a direct
attack upon Richmond by way of Mc
cbanicsville. t
On that day is the first evidence of
his changing his plan. He must first
drive the enemy from Coal Harbor, J)e
fore he could in safety attack the defen
ces on the south bank of the Chicka
hominy, at Mechahicsville. Wright
and Smith were on Wednnsday ordered
to attack the Coal Harbor fortifications.
Burnside and Hancock were at the same
time instructed to feel the strength :of
the enemy’s line at Mechanicsyille. On
Wednesday night, when the.battle
ended, the Mechanicsville line was
found to be very strong, and the Fed
eral attack on Coal Harbor had resulted
in no decisive advantage. The enethy
still held their works at that place. On
Thursday Grant determined UJ change
'tils plan. He gave up the idea of attack
ing Richmond from Mechanicsville, and
mhde dispositions to go down the Chick
abominy to Bottom’s Bridge and its vi
cinity, and seek a crossing there.
On Thursday the headquarters of the
army were moved from Bethesda Church,
tb a point further siuth. not yet stated,
General Hari&tck abandoned jhjs pbsje ,
tionnear "S baity Grove Church, and
marched, in reai ofthe array; Uprbsa tHe
country to Coal Harbor. He tQok por

south of Smith, and extended ' the Uric
almost to the railrogd from White soutle

Tithe, held that railroad. Bnrflsjde"w f ia)
was 1 by this movement placed upoif thie
I northern flank, withdrew somewhat,
and took a position behind the Topol a
tomoy Creek, . On Thursday night the
northern Federal flank was on the Me
chanicsvilleTbd'drthree’ miles from the
Chiekahominy; the centre at Coal Har
bor, and the j southern flank on the
White House Railroad. The line was
about seven miles long, the north end
seven miles from Richmond, the south
end about thirteen. General Grant also
made preparations for bridging the
swamp and river when he should reach
it. General Barnard, Chief of the En
gineers, was sent for, and left Washing
ton for the army, and thousands of
Bpades, axes and picks were sent to the
front.
On Thursday there was no fighting,
though the enemy evidently divinetl
Grant's movement. A large force was
sent by them from the’Richmond bank
of the Chiekahominy, across Bottom’s
Bridge. They began entrenching on
Grant’s side, to prevent any crossing,
and labored steadily on their works till
Sunday, the date of our latest intelli
gence. On Friday morning a general
attack was ordered by Grant, and during
the day a severe contest was fought,
though it does not appear that any ad
vantage was gained. On Friday even
ing the Confederates sent out a recon
noissance, to discover Burnside’s posi
tion. A contest ensued, but the enemy
soon retired. Various other combats
occurred, hut without affecting the gen
eral state of affairs. On Friday night
the enemy held their works.
On Saturday morning the Confclcr
ates in front of Burnside were found t:.
have been withdrawn some distance to
wards Mechanicsville. Burnside, how
ever, did not make any advance, ns
Grant s movements were all to In: to
wards Bottom's Btidge. During Satur
day there was no fighting, but at night
the enemy made an attack upon the
Federal southern Hank, from Coal Har
bor down to the railroad. Hancock,
Smith and Wright wore engage d, and
the fighting was severe, but neither side
gained anything. On Sunday there was
no fighting, and at six in the afternoon,
the hour of Grant's last dispaich. the
enemy still held their line.

’IFRS. Every man of the
J'lhE ZOLAVES had a box of Brandreth’s
Pills, a box of Universal Salve, and an Allcock’s
Porous Plaster put in their knapsack free of ex

absence of any of THIS KEtJI.SIENT from the
hosmtal
EK\ SOLDIER should have a box of
Bt andreth s Pills, a box of Salve, and a piece of
Porous Plaster. They are SURE to be useful,
