CORRESPONDENCE OF THE "JOURNAL".
Camp jiear Harrison' Lanm.no, Va.f
July 19th, lbVl
Dear How : Thero eeems to be a persistent
and settled determination, on the part of some
would bo military tenders of the north, to And
fault with every effort, or movement, which
is made by either of the grand armies which
have been concentrated at different points to
quell the great rebellion which has now as
sumed such gigantic proportions and is spread
over such a vast extent of our once happy
country, The prolific tirades which are con
ceived and nourished In their over-fruitful
bin ins, and hurled against our Generals,
would, perhaps, under other circumstances
entitle their authors to consideration. Judg
ing from their tone, the initiated would sup
pose that Napoleon in his palmiest days, was
never possessed of half tho military accumeu
as these self same leadeis, and one is almost
led to believe that they must have some spir
itual premonition of all the movements which
are about to occur, in order to enable them
to criticise upon tho merits of this move or
(hat) und all Ibis from personal observation
taken 8omewhero within tho bounds of Penn
sylvania, This persistency, which at first was
passed by In silence, lias at Ittigth culminated
in the uiiiiiif tiikeablo end jost indignation
which is everywhere manifest throughout this
portion of the anny. unprincipled toon who

tho interests of ibis class of patriot whoso
1 1 aid friends are ever on the alert for an op
portunity lo msUe cftpltal, for thim, out of
the present unfortunate oouditiou of tho coun
try. Such conduct in times like the present,
when our Government is struggling for its
very existence against enemies on all sides,
It is, to say the least treasonable, and soldiers
have long since learned to regard those who
do not give to tho Government theii hearty
cooperation and support as traitors at heart,
and unworthy of confidence. The soldier
who has sacrificed all tho euse and comforts
of home, and has offered his all, oven life
itself, to avenge the insults and indignities
which liavo been heaped upon bis beloved flag,
expects every man, who 1.1 not standing whoiil-
dcr to shoulder with him in the Held, to over
look all the minor considerations of party and
stand by bis country, and to concentrate all
the legitimate means in bis power to the vin
dicatiou of the rights of civil and religious
liberty and the supremacy of the Constitution
and the laws.
The time haa now arrived when every man
in u .it show his baud must stand or fall upon his
own individual merits must either be the
whole-souled friend of the Government or its
deadly foe. Thero has been too much dally
lug with treason in the p;ist-too much ten
derness exercised towards traitors and too
many ofleriugs of aid to the common cause
Willi one nana, wiiiio a ciencned dagger was
held in the other. Dut, it is gratifying to
know that the people hav-- been watching
these moves, and have at Iciicth taken tbo
matter in hand. That man who seeks noui lu
turn aside the current of popular opinl hi from
the legitimate onject of cruolitng out this lu
loultlous rebellion, Is either u fool or a mad
man. Nosnnc man In the north this day, can
doubt thut our c iiiso Is just, or that (hu smiles
of Heaven are not upon our honest eflorts)
and, with this conviction, we hive every right
to expect tho undivided and Impartial tin is

THE PRESIDENT DEFENDED.
The following article, from the Chicago
Tribune, we commend to the attention of
those who have been ready to assail the Pres
ident, while defending the policy and strategy
of Generala who had less claims upon their
confidence.
Tho covert allegation in a late number of
tho New York Times, that the President has
thus far conducted the war, In opposition to
the advice of bis Generals, and thut the disas
ters id the Virginia campaign were due to
his intermedd ling, is so wholly false that we
wonder how the editor of that journal, who
ought to have been better informed, could
have permitted the charge to have place in
itscolums. The truth is, and we should say
to Mr. Lincoln if lie were here, the crowning
fault of his Administration has been his de
ference to tho opinions of Ills military advi
sers, lie louna nimseir at ttie head ol tin?
Government tho Commander-in-Chief of the
Army and Navy when this war broke out.
lie naturally looked to the oflicers subordi
nate fo himself for Instruction and advice in
mutters purely military. These men, most ol
whom wire graduates of nest Point, bad 110
sympathy with him or his views. They wero
mainly pailizans of the South, forming a
distinct class in our nationally, separated
from (he body Of the people by their depend'
ettee 011 the Government, the life-long lehtife
of there ofllee, nnd (ho nature of their em
tiloyment, Ihey weienti Allstocracy In the
heart of a Democracy, and a such weie the
rdleht admirer ii not ibe qni( siipp'ter ol

'l do not pretend lo know iiiiied about mili

suraucu, fjo (hey must bo permitted logo
11he.pl, There can bo no two plan adopted,
And is (bey are or ought to be expert in mil
ll.iry matters, J must not jnferfoio Midi their
plans," This, we say, has been (by language
that fiu has always I. eld j ami a much a tvu
may deprecate its ttl'ect in turning over the
army and the country to the (under mercies
of the men who are too f.ivorbly utlected lu
our enemies, wo can but admire the modesty
und patriotism, winch, lu llus crisis, subordi
nates self lo considerations affecting tho pub
lic weal. We have no instance to show how
this disposition of the Prusi Iiiiit has worked.
When the Peninsular caniiijigu was proposed,
.Mr. LmicoIu was opposed to it, His plan wan
for our army to go ahead in unbroken force
on the line of thu enemy's retreat, and to
hasten to Richmond with such speed as it
might be able lo command. This as the ob
vious dictate of good policy and good souse.
liut the famous strategy of which we have
heard so much, was shaken in his face ; tho
decision of a Council of War was held up be
fore him, and though he all tho while protest
ed that the movement did not command the
approbation uf hisj judgment, bo finally con
sented that it be made, the result the coun
try knows. Once more : When bis patience
win exhausted by the long delay of Gen. Mc
Clellan before Manitisas, lie ordered a forward
movement, not only once but three several
times. That was Lincoln and tho expression
of his military notions. Bm. strategy came
oiicb more into play 5 one excuse after anoth
er was alleged, and at last the command. For
ward March! was recalled, and Richmond is
not taken yet.
We state these things not to assail others,
but to vindicate the President, who is nomi
nally responsible for tho mishaps that have oc
curred, lie, wo believe, is in favor of action,
of earnestness, of celerity. Were he to trust
to his own sound judgment and Cease to be
governed by the advice of men who have thus

INTERESTING WAR NEWS.
Memphis, August l.--The Bulletin fit tins
morning has the lollowing tijm authentic
sources among other-interesting items as to
the proceedings ol the rebels :
'We have some inkling of the subject dis
cussed at the conference of all the principal
military leaders, held in Richmond on the 4th
and 5th July. It is understood that they must
lose more territory. The defensive policy
was s'trongly attacked, and both Lee and Beau
regard advised the Invasion of the North at
three points, namely : (nun Cumberland or
Williiimspoi t into Pennsylvania, from Loui.i
villeand Cincinnati into Indiana and Ohio,
and from Paducah and Cairo into Illinois.
It is alleged that the following plan of op
erations forthe remainder of the summer cam
paign was agreed upon.
"First, the Immediate obstruction of the
Jsmos River, so as to make it mpusabld for
McClellan to use it as a means for communica
tion with the Fort, and for their tinnsporla
tion of reinforcements and army supplies.
"Second, the occupation ol Williamsburg,
York (Ow n nl d the entire Peninsula.
Third, the recovery ol the whole territory
of Virginia, and (he suppression of the Balti
more nnd Ohio railroad j for the recovery of
fifew Orleans, Men phis and tho .Mississippi
(Ivor and expulsion of the Federal troops from
Tennessee and Kentucky. When these ob
ject, have been accomplished, then Jjoo and
Beauregard's plan wa proposed,

ii nticiilar of the attack HMd by (ha rebel
batteries on Geu, MtClullau' position limn
opposite flaiTisuii'fc Landing, Thmiltiick was
made at niidniglii wild, it is said, luirjut,
luiies of Hying artillery, some being above,
and soinu below the point of attack, They
throw six twelve pound shell, some round ami
ol hers conical, hut not one of them exploded.
Their fire was intended, no doiiht, tor our
camps, but many of the shot led short an I
Ihiis did some little mischief among Ibe ship
ping which was laving at tlm L noting and ut
anchor in the river. Several vessuls and
steamers were struck wiih Irignients of shell,
but none, wero hurt in Iheiu,
It is reported nine of our soldiers were kill
ed and only three wounded. The attack being
made at such a late hour of the night, and our
army expecting rather an attack in Iront.
caused some delay before m r guns opened
fire, w hen our siege guns wore lr light lo boar
upon I hem, and in les thin forty min.utcs the
rebels were silenced. Tho tiring was very
brisk while it continued. Many of tho ene
my's shells were thrown over among or
camps, but these did not explode. All those
which exploded felt much short of the camps,
aud this accounts for so few being injured.
It is supposed that the object of tho rebels
in this demonstration was to draw the Federal
ounboats down the river so as lo enable their
goats, including the new Mcrrimac, fo get
but.
It is estimated that the rebels threw over
five hundred shell, which lay this mottling
scattered over the field. Some lodged in the
masts of vessels'. ATI that is knbwn of the
elfect of on r tiring is thai tho rebels retreated,
and this mor.iing the trees where they had
their batteries presented a shattered appear
ance, and many'are cut completely down.
