FRIDAY MORNING, JULY IA 1684
The last foreign arrival from London
announces thatihe"Danish commission
erato the allied headquarters are reported
t 6 have returned without effecting any
cessation of hostilities, but,advices from
Berlin •say that a truce has been granted
to'Jtlly 31,1 and in the meantime propo
sitioas for ieaciiehall be made."
The, Daniell war, compared to that
whietohas been filling our country with
hirdreds of thousands of new-made
gri001 1 f; and numberless widows and or
pbaus to ; mourn over them, is but an in
considerate skirmish; but yet, after, a
fervOnonths of lighting, the beligerents
begin think,of a cessation of hoiitili
tieikovith the view of bringing about a
speedy arid:lasting peace. Our Admin.
istratitill, after more than three years of
Unplirellebid slaughter, instead of trout).
ling_itaelf about peace, is-resortinto all
manner lof lying pretests to continue
La
_ n ;
e W4r. Itsnewspapers are teeming
with fanatic and vehement appeals to the
people to volunteer, and to the rich men
to lend the Government their means to
prosecute hostilities, but not one of them
even iimts at a desire for peace. When
propoktions are offered to negotiate,
they are rudely thrust aside, and instead
ol a disposition being manifested by our
authorities for a cessation of hostilities,
the air is made..l4lo6 ,4 With the sounds of
more conscrtptionti. It Is time, to be
gin to inquire where and when is this
thing to stop ?
We know, anitthe country knows, that
rebel representatives have endeavored
to open negotiatitnis with our Admints•
tratian,ind they were refused- and why?
Some - :of our opponents say because they
had rib - power to treat. How did our
4dminstration know whit power and
discretion were intimated to them? It
wmild„have i dope4o harm to have heard
their propositions; it would have done
• no harm to have commenced friendly
talking instead of continuing ferocious
lighting. But, determined to have no
peace, Nir. LiNCO,TeN, in his last epistle
to the rebel representatives at Niagara,
Informs them that, if they disband their
armies, lay down their arms, and abol
rah slavery, then their propositions will
receive the attention of "the Executive
Government of the United States." The
two first of these conditions the rebels
could easily comply with, and, as regards
the third ` , - they could make arrangements
for the gradual extinction of slavery, but
they will not be heard until universal
and immediate emancipation is proclaim
ed throughout their Confederacy. This
Mr. LINCOLN knew the rebels could not
and would not grant, and hence his rea
son for making the demand.
For what, then, are these fanatic calls
to arms and our terrible slaughter? Are
they in parsuauce pf a fefling of anxie,
ty for our imperiled Union? Not at all.
The fanatacism of faction, regarding
slavery, is the controlling power which
is determined to prolong hostilities until
its - midi are fully accomplished: The
people should ponder over these things
with great seriousness. The Abolition
ists are endeavoring, by fussy and frothy
declamation regarding their own patriot
ism and others' treason, to hive them
forgotten; but, should their arts prevail
in fastening the present Adminstration
upon the country fouryears. longer, re
dress will be beyond the power of the
people. The immediate emancipation
of three or four millions of staves the
South never will consent to; and it would
be cruelty, even to the slave to do so.
The Administration knows the South
cannot do this, and hence its demand for
it, in order' that hostilities may be con
tinued and LINcoLN re-elected. Let
him be re-elected and we can form sonic
idea of our country's condition at the
end of his second Adminstration by a
little refieeiion tipoti what it is now. The
Abolition idea of a war of subjugation
is - so much nonsense. When that is
proclaimed the. .Southern .Confederacy
wilite acknowledged; and then, instead
of having only the rebels to fight, the
North will have to acknowledge the Con
federacy too, or else prepare to confront
the powers which have done so. This
will be the condition of affairs if things
are not changed by our rulers, and all to
gratify the infernal spirit of Abolition
hate and fanaticism
A CALL FOR McCLELLA N.
“Help me Cassius or I sink."
The New York Evening Post, a lead
ing Administration paper, and persis
tent opponent of Gen. MCCLELLAN, is
now calling upon the Administration to
put him in -Active tiervice. From its
call for his restoration, we select the fol
lowidg:
"We have not ourselves had a very high opin
ion of General capacity as a com
mander of troops in active war but many who
arejust as capable of fudging 4. Ottrselvee., ,M€E4l4
too, who are more capable, think highly of him i n
that
t respect; and, according to the opposition
journals, who ought to know the minds of their
supporters, he has thousands of adherentsin the
country who would eagerly enlist tia-serve un
der him. Let all means be emplbyed to close
the war at once, and to unite the people of all
parties in a great and immediate etrort to that
end."
What do our readers think of the Ab
olitionists now calling hack to the service
the "loiterer" who did not bag La's ar
my after the battle of Antietam, and that
too, after. two years of bloody experi
menting under Itif Fccesshrs? We can•
not believe it. - If he 'the necessities
of the Administration must be pressing
indeed.
But whether MCCLELLAN again enters
active service or not, theca Sts a fine, open-
tug for those who have bien traducing
him to do so. Where are our Union
Leaguers and what are they -doing in,
this emergency ? Does their patriotism
consist merely in devising means to per
secute Democratic newspapers, and iloes
their courage ooze out when real dan

sea of trade. What has become of VI -,,,
The conclusion is inevitable that the People
are hoarding Greenbacks, the same as they form
erly hoarded gold and silver, only to a greater
extent. Yes, the worthless Greenback money,
the paper trash, which, if we believe the "very
hard cash" theorists is worth only about fifty
cents on the dollar, is being "salted down" in se
cret tills and old stockings, by the people all over
the country. The fact fa aigndicant-and speaks
well for - the Intelligence and patriotism of the
masses. It evinces their faith in the Govern
ment and, proclaims theirdetermination to sus
tain it against the rebellion; for If the Govero
ment'doed not succeed,laimrebbacks willbe worth
less.
The above is from the Pittsburgh Com
mercial. The author should be captured
and sent to FEBSENDEN at once. The
Treasury Department should not be
without this new light, for a single hour
has disclosed that greenbacks are as good
as gold, and are now being "salted down
in secret tills and old stockings." The
salting process is good and certainly in•
dicative of a large amount of patriotism
if not intelligence. The poetry of the
thing is rather knocked out of it by the
Commercial wheu it says, "if the Gov
ernment does not succeed greenbacks
will be worthless." It does not say
this would be the case with gold.
For the Post.
If our government, as established by
our forefathers, is to be preserved, such
men only as are pure in mind, and hon
est in their dealings, should be selected
to represent the people (who really are
the government) in the Congress, which
will assemble at Washington next win
ter. Too little care has of late been ex
ercised in this respect by communities
in general. For an instance, take our
own District, and let us conslder•who
has been representing us in Congress.—
Why, James K. Moorhead I—and who,
pray, is James K. Moorhead ? a man
totally void of statesmanship: Who com
menced his political career as a contract.
or upon the public works. Who never
originated an idea designed to benefit
mankind, but who from the first day he
entered the politliad arena, commenced
a warfare upon the interests and hopes
of the poor man, and strove to erect a
fortune for himself and gain power, by
chi‘anery, deceit, and fraud. What
an irregular life, his has been, of low
cunning strategy. First he played the
part of a Democrat—then he became a
follower of the Know-Nothings--and
finally he made his roost with the Re
publicans ; and with them, ho has been
permitted to practice hiscunning schemes
with Impunity. He has thus far suc
ceeded admirably ; and doubtless often
laughs in his sleeve at the happy, easy
manner, he has drawn the wool over
the eyes of his non-suspecting, loyal
leaguers. How well he estimated his
chances, when leaping from the arms of
the Democrats into those of the Repub
titans, may be understood by all who
will take the pains and trouble to en
quire into his successes of late years,
and can such things exist without crea
ting special wonder ! The day has been
when this entire community could point
with pride and gratification to the men
who represented us in the national as
sembly. How now must the blush of
shame and indignation mantle the cheek
of every high-minded citizen, when they
think of the place, once honored by a
Baldwin, Biddle, Wilkins, Darr gh,
Howe and Ritchie, being desecrated oy
such as Moorhead. And this gives rise
to a question. Does wealth make brains,
or is It education ? Have the people of
this country become so demoralized iu
judgment, so debased in feelings of pro
priety and good sense, that they will
persist in measuring a man's capacity to
make laws for their government, by the
impudence he may, be born with, and
the dollars he may possess ; or will they
pay suitable homage to intellect, and
honor mind instead of matter. The time
has come when these momentous ques
tions must be answered practically at
the ballot-box. The period is near at
hand when our Congress should be made
up of the brightest, roost powerful and
sagacious intellects the nation can pro
duce. Questions of the highest and
most difficult character will come up for
settlement. Laws and measures in
volving principles of equity and justice,
will have to be enacted and adopted, and
a new feeling born and disseminated,
by which our government may be per.
petuated, and vur once happy, though
now distracted people be again drawn
together, and reunited in the bonds of
peace and fraternal love. At such a time
then, think you, will it be sale to have
our national body annoyed by the pres
ence of such an empty haeded creature
as Mcoreead? God forbid ! Let him stay
at home. He will be needed to explain
to his constituency how it was he made
those $20,000 through his official posi
tion in last Congress ; and which he boosts
of made Was this, we would
like -to know, the amount he received
for voting to repeal the $3OO commuta
tion clause? Was this the sum his
avaricious soul required to barter away
the person and blood of many a wid
ow's son, and orphan's child's parent,
who will ' now be forced to go to war ?
His explanation, at a late meeting, of
his vote on the occasion of striking out
the commutation was equal to any effort
made by John Owens, the commedian,
in his palmiest day, and was sublime ;
but had he, instead of placing his hand
on his heart, put it on his pocket, it
would have been considered by his audi
tors as quite mole-dramatic ; and had a
more startling effect. The times are,
certainly out of joint, else Moorhead
could never have made $20,000 out of
his office of Congressman. We have
some confidence left in the hoaesty of
the people, and think it will appear
to them necessary to make a change in
our representative. If they do not, Moor
head will make $50,000 out of his next
term, and you, fellow-citizens, and all
of us, will deserve all the opprobrium
and oppression his votes and acts can
heap upon us. PRO Bono Pumico.
STRONGEST BANK fN THE WORLD.-
The Bank of Genoa, which has been in
existence hundreds of years, has perhaps
proved itself the strongest institution of
the kind in the world. It is a remark
able fact in its history, that its admini
stration has always been as permanent
and un,changeable as that of the republic
has been agitated and fluctuating. No
alteration ever took place in the mode
of governing and regulating the affairs
of the bank; and two sovereign and
independent Powers, at war with each
other, have been within the,walls of the
city, without producing the slightest
shock to the bank, or causing it to se
crete any of its books or treasnres.

city is *:arid tarfelithat on the north
~east is by: known as Stone
liiiioitai4:ol47,ea abruptly from the
pl 4. The Menges of the city are very
stniiig. The fortifications mount formi
dable batteries besides others of lesser
comnianding all points of the
compass. These are fronted on the
north by almost impenetrable abattis
running half way around. It does not
appear that the works can be carried by
a direct assault. General Sherman wi
probably hai•e to lay siege to them. Des
patches from Sherman's- army, received
yesterday, convey but little intelligence.
They say that Sherman maintained his
position, and that there have been no re
verses. The Federal loss•in the battle
on Friday, is stated at three thousand.
The Confederates, as in all the recent
engagements, were the attacking party.
Two of .the enemy's Generals are believ
ed to have been killed. General Rous.
seau's expedition has returned to Mari
etta, having accomplished the destruc
tion of the Montgomery Railroad. An
other under General Garrard, which left
Decatur at the same time, has also re
turned, after burning the bridges and
destroying the track of the railroad at
Covington, about forty miles east of At
lanta. It is said that Garrard captured
two hundred prisoners. All the rail
roads leading from Atlanta are now cut.
We have news of disaster in the Shen- '
andoah Valley. Gen. Averill has been
defeated by Early near Winchester, and
compelled to retreat across the Potomac
t r Williamsport, in Maryland. The
Confederates have advanced up the val
ley and occupied Martinsburg. They
are reported to be in large force. They
have cut the telegraph wires above
Harper's Ferry, and torn up the track
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad.
The Federal troops are concentrated at
Harper's Ferry, under command of Gen
eral Hunter, who has forbidden tele
graphic communication with that place.
It is reported that Gen. Kelley and Col.
Mulligan were killed. Orders have
been sent to Frederick to remove the
stores and prepare for an evacuation of the
town. In Baltimore, the Leaguers have
been advised by General Wallace to
hold themselves in readiness for any
emergency that may occur. A battle is
repotted to have taken place between
Harper's Ferry and Winchester, result
ing in the repulse of Hunter, who lost
several pieces of artillery and a large
number of men. Later accounts de
clare these statements exaggerated, but
a surgeon and chaplain, well known in
this city, who were with the army, tiny
that Hunter's defeat was a very serious
one. Only a remnant of hls troops
reached Harper's Ferry.
There nothing new from General
Grant's Army. It is believed that Grant
is mining the enemy's works at Peter•
burg. Secretary Seward has been on a
vizdt to the front.—Age
Social Statistics.
The Boston daily Advertiser calls the
attention of the people of Massachusetts
to the increase of vice and crime among
the female population of the State, as
seen in the growing abandonment of in
fant children, and in the enlarged cate
gory of the offences for which women
are arrested by the police ut the cities.
The first and chief of the natural causes
which aggravate the mural condition of
the State under this head is found by our
contemporary in the great disproportion
that exists in Massachusetts between the
number of the male and female popula
tion—involving the community in pecu
liar difficulties "respecting the oceupa
tion of women, their residence, the
temptations which surround them, and
the way in which what the English call
"the such] Aviation" affects our sys
terns of public punishment and reform."
It appears from the returns of the last
national census that in 1800 the excess of
the number of women, of all ages, in the
State of Massachusetts, above that of
men, was :16,970. Since that time the
war and the steady surplus in the end
gration at' the males must have taken
from th 4 State, the Advertiser thinks,
sixty or seventy thousand muse men—
these also, it must be observed, of the
marriageable ages—leaving a surplus of
100,000 women. Between the ages of
fifteen and forty-five, the population of
women in Massachusetts is about 342,-
000.
The population of men of the Sallie
age does not probably exceed 242,0M1 at
the present time. 441 this state of facts
our contemporary remarks as follows:
"This entire disproportion, grater
than we remember to have observed in
the statistics of any other country, may
be ascribed, to a cnnsiderahle extent, to
the war. But we should mistake great
ly if we should consider the war as its
only cause. Before the war existed, in
1880, the excess of women of all ages
was, as we have said, 80,970. Counting
only the population between the ages of
fifteen and llfty, the excess of women
within those limits was twenty-seven
thousand—a surplus much too large to
be overlooked in a careful study of the
crime of the community. The causes
are evident. Young men emigrate free
ly and largely. They emigrate in much
greater proportion than women do.
The emigration from Massachusetts is
much larger than the emigration into it.
The consequence is that a large propor
tion of unmarried women are left by the
tide of emigration within our borders.
The movement of the army is to be look
ed upon as a large emigration. Many
alas! of those who have left us cannot
return. Of those who can many will be
tempted to take up their abodes in dis
tant States. So that the surplus of one
hundred thousand marriageable women
above the number of men of the mar-
ageable age in Massachusetts may be
looked upon, not indeed as a precise sta-
Utica,' statement of an evil which we
have to correct, but as not so far distant
from the truth as at first sight might ap
pear."
The Advertiser conceives that the cor
rection of this evil is to be found in the
encouragement, by all proper means,
of the emigration of women from Massa
chusetts into the regions of the West,
where they are needed, and of the sys
tematic immigration of men from Eu
rope into the State; in support of which
former remedy it adds: "Merely selfish
considerations of a temporary lack in
the supply of workwomen• ought not to
stand a moment in the way of the recti
fying a gross disproportion, which, of
necessity, seriously endangers the mor
als of the community and the very foun
datibn of civil society."

AUTUORITY has been conceded by the
Secretary of War to the State of Ohio to
raise twenty regiments iu that State for
two and three years under the late call
for five hundred thousand men, who
are to be credited to thd quota of the
State. They must be all infantry, as no
cavalay or light artillery will be allow
ed, and it is useless to make application
for such.
CAPITAL punishment has met the dis
approbation of the French people very
much during the putt year. The guil
lotine has been cried down in several in
stances in Paris, and when de la Porn
morals underwent that system of pun
ishment., several voices were heard to
cry "down with the guillotine." A
petition against capital punishment has
received the names of 30,000 laborers in
Paris.
AN IDIOT DILOWNH HIS FATHER
Jacob Miller, of Brunswick, Rensselaer
county, New York was recently drown
ed, under peculiar circumstances.
While at a spring on his farm, in com
pany with au idiot son, adjusting the
door covering over it, he fell forward
into the water, which was about three
feet in depth. The idiot sprang forward
and closed the door down upon him,
preventing him from extricating himself.
COAL MINING PROFITABLE.-0081
mining is said to be remarkably profit
able to the miners now Those working
at piece work earn from three to four
hundred dollars per month, in one part
of the State, or an annual income of forty
eight hundred dollars. When the work
is straight forward, from. threw hundred
and fifty to four hundred dollars is
thought a lair month's earning, with
only pieli and shovel.
Tux inhabitant , ' of Petersburg and all
the rebel press were congratulating with
themselves On the supposed tact that our
army before Petersburg would not d e
sufficiently supplied with water, and
that we would either have to discontinue
the siege or undergo au inuneuse amount
of fatigue and labor on that at-count.
True it is that the plains before Peters
burg present a very barren and dry ap
petiranee But Yankee ingenuity sur
mounted all difiiculti s, and at present
our army before Petersburg is supplied
with abundance of cool fresh water, as
good as the best water in any State of
the Union.
TILE certainty of an approaching rebel
raid can not be conceived by many, but
it is an undisputed fact that they have
already eammenced it, and will not 8n
-
lab until they attack and raise supplies
from our State or Idaryiand. The South
is at present deficient In supplies, and
the prices of provisirms below the line
are enormous. Our harvest, which al
though reported as worse than the pro
ceeding years, on account of the great
drouth, is nothing less than abundant,

repeat this process, we expel further quantities
of impurities, which are again replaced by fluids
less and less impure, so that in a short time, by
continuing this treatment, we bring back the
