A DEARTH OE WAR NEWS.
There is no question, but that within
the present week some of the most im
portant movements of the war in Virgin
ia have taken place; and the fact or our
Secretary of WaT not alluding to them,
would lead one to believe that the re
sult of them was anything bat encourag
ing to our cause. When we do gain a
Jioipt, no matter how trifling, it is so
, W-guified by the War Department as to
intake the truth which follows it the less
■ Welcome. If our rulers would but give
us the facts, as they occur and not over
estimate oiir, successes nor diminish our
disasters, the. people would be a thou
.sand times better satisfied. As it is,
they Cannot believe anything relating to
. the wcr, whioh comes as official
from the War .• Department. This is
'most shamefiil and should he noticed by
'Congress. The people who .are bearing I
ithe burdens of taxation, and who are |
•giving up their relatives in their coun
try’s cause, do not desire buncomb dis
patches from the War Department, an
nqpncing immense successes of our
arms, when they have not taken place,
especially when a few dayß brings the
truth that their relatives' have fallen be
fore the murderous rebel fire. The last
. most Important dispatch from St anton,
to (Sen. Dtx, lead us to think that
Grant had : whipped the rebel armv
V£ry seriously; a few days, however,
dissipated oqr hopes, and brought us
Ure sad intelligence of the fall of
some of the most gallant men whom
oiir city sent out to the war. It
is a sad sequel, while rejoicing over
reported victories, to have our joy
changed to unutterable sorrow, by the
announcement of the fall of some of
our most heroic and accomplished offl
. cera and men.
L r ‘ To show how the War Department is
given to silly and grandiloquent dis
patches, needs but reference to one of
itsffirst in regard to Grant's present
campaign, fn order to impress the peo
ple with the idea that Grant was going
right on to Richmond without delay,
Mr. Stanton announced that the rebe
Dittt, after the first heavy engagement
asked time to attend to his wounde
-and to bury his dead. Quant’s reply
according to Stanton was, that, ‘-b
had not time tobnry his own,’’ and pro
posed renewing the contiiet. In yester
day’s paper, however, we have it ofli
eialiy announced that Gbant had sen
of. truce asking time to attend to his
killediand wounded in one of this week’s
engagements. Thus the lie of the Ad
ministration, showing our chief to
rnander to be insensible to the pangs of
lna dying soldiers, is exploded by his
otra conduct; this should admonish lli
Stanton not to indulge in falsehoo.
any.rn.ore, in his official bulletins to Gen,
Due, which are designed for the infor

keep practicing the arts of the pettifo-
ger, let him imitate Howabd and get up
bogus proclamation, This trifling
with'the sensibilities of the people is
shameful, anji Ought to subject him to
the severest, censure of Congress. Be

with the feelings oi the people.

THAT PICTURE.
The offensive picture to which we al
luded in yesterday’s 'Post exhibited in
the Sanitary Fair, luu^otj;we r belie ve•
! been removed. We|protest here anil
| now, against a repetM&jl ofshl3 Outrage
upon the persons of Democrats as repre
si-nted in this caricature. If age, repu
tation or utlliction are not sufficient to
shieid estimable gentlemen of this com
munity from ridicule at the hand of the
managers of the-Sanitary Fair, the pub
lic should know it. The picture is offen
sive and how it should lie considered in
any other sense is not clear to us. That
sucli things may be tolerated during the
heat and fervor of a political campaign
we can understand, but for the purpose
of raising money to staunch the blood of
sons and brothers we shall contribute in
money and witli ourpresence,and to have
presented for our special admiration a
charicature of a Democratic proces
sion, to which respectable gentlemen of
this city are made to figure as drunken
loafers, and that this establishment and
those connected with it made the subject
of the sneets and jibes of the thousands
who visit the Art Gallery of the great
Sanitary Fair, we cannot understand.
If the pictuiSe be not removed we have
lost confidence in the fairness and hon
est intentions of the managers of this
enterprise.
Since writing the above, we have read
a letter from Felix H. Brunot, chief
officer of the Sanitnry Fair, addressed to
the lady having in charge the McClel
i.an cloak and a portion of the Fast
Liberty Booth, requesting the removal
ofa very handsome imperial photograph
of Gen. McClellan from the table.
Another superb photograph, life size, ol
the General had been removed without
any note or warning some days previous,
and has not since been heard of, the
return of which would much oldige the
owner. All this looks like premeditated
intolerance, which we are most unwil
ling to believe, and without further com
ment at present most respectfully a>k
for some explanation.
The Military Situation,
We renew our extracts from the
Philadelphia Age, upon the subject of
the situation and progress of events in
Virginia. These articles are so lucid
that much time is saved to the reader in
gathering detached facts fiom long tel
egrams:
The contest on Friday last caused se
ven; Federal losses. They were almost
equally distributed throughout the entire
line. The result of the battle was as we
stated yesterday. The northern Federal
flank retreated to Bethesda Church; the
southern flank maintained its position
below Coal Harbor. In all jiortious,
however, the line was greatly weakened.
It was too week for attacks, and almost
too weak to cover and delend a position
six miles long. The contest showed that
the Confederate works at Coal Harbor
were very strong; and the last hope I
going to Richmond by the Mechanics.
viHe route was given up. That part of
the campaign was ended. The Confe.l
erutes claim Friday’s battle as a victory,
atul say they captured two thousund
prisoners.
On Saturday nothing was di.no. On
Sunday, Grant began making new dis
positions. The northern Hank had been
composed of Warren's corps at Bethesda
Church, and Burnside's corps'uoith ol the
I Church, with cavalry beyond. The cav
I airy was called in on Sunday. The Hank
I was concentrated. Hanover Town and
New Castle were given up, Tire road
running from those places to Mechanics
I ville and the Chicknhotniny were no long
er picketed. The entire country above
Bethesda Church was uhandoned, and
Burnside made the place the north end
ol the Federal line. Warren was with
drawn from the front, so that Burn sub
joined Smith. Warren went to the
| rear, and marched southward to the
\ southern Hank. He became the reserve
of that flank, and the various divisions
of the corps, which had been in reserve,
went forward to the front and strength
ened the line. f>n Sunday night the cn
emy made various recounoissances to
diseovor Lite Federal position. On SI
I day nothing was done, and on Monday
I night some skirmishes occurred. The
I picket lines of the two armies are very
I close to each other. Sharpshooters are
I continually tiring, and the Federal Uim-
I es from this, even when no conflict or
I curs, are estimated at four hundred a
[day. During Monday General Grant
j sent n flag of truce to General ,Hee
asking a cessation of hostilities to
bury r ihe dead on part of the
line. No result is yet reported. On
Tuesday morniug Burnside held the
northern flank at Bethesda Church, and
was on the road to New Bridge. Smith
was -south of Burnside; Wright south o
Smith, and Hancock south ot Wrieht
The southern flank was near the rail
[ road, with cavalry pickets extending to
the road. Warren was in reserve. One
week before the Federal Southern flank
had been on the New Bridge road; now
lha northern flank is upon it. Hancock,
Warren and Wright are supplied by the
White House Railroad, which has been
reconstructed to Dispatch Station ten
mile? from White House. Smith’ and
Burnside are supplied by wagon trains
sent from White House by road to Be-
thesda'Oburt'b. These trains are always
strongly guarded, ps even in the short
they go they are frequently al
tacked by guerrilles. Our latest intellj

Completely acknowledged by General
Grant, in his steady advance t.> the po
sitions occupied by the former, before
Richmond, when the AdminUtratihn at
Washington refused or neglected to
make his success sure by requisite rein
forcements, that no comment is neces
sary. Grant, like McClellan, knows
exactly bow to improve advantages;
and though the Administration and its
paid presses have multiplied their sneers
at the “strategy of 9pades,” they are
now r forced to eat dirt and to praise in
Grant what they 60 unjustly and ma

As indicative of the crawfishing opera
tions now rendered necessary to Lin
coln’s satellites, we quote some para
graphs from the specials of the Gazette,
from its army correspondent:
“Our progress toward Richmond is
slow, hut no doubt is entertained in our
army as to the final result.
Spades to the front has again become
the order, and Slow but surely, we are
digging up to the rebel capital,
i since the firßt of this month we have
been digging almost continually. At
some places we have thus worked up to
within a hundred yards of the rebel
works, against which our column dash
ed in vain last Friday.

Ah to having Old Abe stand on a
“plankless platform,” we think that also
exactly wdial is needed. A great many
individuals have thus "stood” and done
humanity great service. The best thing
ever done by Lincoln s prototype, John
Brown, was his final net, at which time
he occupied a “plaukless platfoim” in
Virginia. By all means let Lincoln
have a "piankiess platform;” it benefit
ted the country through John Brown
and it would confer equal benefit in tile'
ease of Lincoln.”
SI’ADES ABE AGAIN TliU Nl PS —-Til t
ariny correspondent of the Herald aavs:
“The predictions many have made, that
Grunt would discard the shovel and the
pick, prove to he as fallacious as they
were unmllitary. An enemy may he
driven from a line of rifle pits by „
charge, or a lunette or redoubt may be
taken by assault; but it would be a wan
ton waste of life to fight an enemy
nearly it not fu.ly equal to ourselves in
numbers, who was strongly lorlified
while we have no protection but the non'
resisting air. The fact has been fully
aud frequently demonstrated, that to he
successful, we must meet the enemy on
nearly as equal a footing as possible if
we eannot meet him at an advantage.
If he entrenches, we must entrench, anti
drive him from his position with can
non and mortars, rather than by sacri
ficing the lives of soldiers in thousands
by throwing them into the jaws of
almost certain death.” Of course when
the fact becomes known to the Lincoln
ites, a solemn protest will be offered up
against this “uumilitary McClellan
method of taking Richmond. ” They
won’t allow it by any means.
Avom Taxation^ of the
stern virtues of the Romans in the days
of the younger Scipio Africanus, Cicero
says that one General madt over to the
State all the treasure taken from the
Maceddnians, leaving to his family noth
ing bat the renown of his name. He
further says that so great was the sum
thus realized by the Commonwealth
that there was no need for taxation for
some time afterwards. Here is an ex
ample for those who are now attempt
ing to manage the affajrsof this country.
Let them make all our Generals who
have become suddenly rich, disgorge
their booty, for the benefit of this heav
ily taxed people. Then the public debt
will be greatly diminished, perhaps will
disappear altogether. Thus we will im
itate the stern virtue of the ancient Ro
mans, and besides act on the Napoleonic
maxim of making the war support it
self. — Calholic.
