Prepare for the National Defense
The States mast arm. War must be our
great business until the safety of the imperil
led nation and the integrity of the Union are
secured. To arm, we must enroll and drill
rery able-bodied man. We must have this
tnighty host ready for all emergencies.
When the Government calls for now troops,
they mast by previous preparation be skilled
men, ready for the field. The National War
Committee of New York, says the Pittsburg
Gavelle baa, by resolution, recommended that
an army corps of one hundred thousand men
be organized in that State, under Generals
Fremont and Mitchel, to be ready at any
moment to take the field. This is well ; but
does it go far enough 1 We recommended
weeks ago, that a complete enrollment begone
into at once, and a regular drill bo exacted.
Let these men be officered by men chosen bj
the : companies, and commissioned by the
Governor, and let reasonable necessary expen
ses be paid , and every officer be held to a
trict accountability. We repeat, we trust arm.
The man who talks of yielding to a compro
mise, or to an acknowledgment of the indepen
dence of the rebels, is a traitor. Our duty is
clear. We cannot, without disgrace and ru
In, fail now. There is a necessity upon us
to conquer. We cannot yield if we would.
We are driven by an inexorable necessity
to conquer, or to be conquered. Let us
address ourselves to the great work we have
in hand, as Americans, as Christians. If we
far! in a hundred battles through incompe
tent Generals, or from the influence of an
Imbecile policy, we will fight the one hundred
and first with a determination to overthrow
the rebellion, or perish at the attempt.

'Ityon account or the rebels crossing into Ma
ryland. Co Saturday it was reported that
40,000 had crossed the Potomac, but it was
afterwards stated that the force consisted of
fcut 100 cavalry and two pieces of artillery.
Later advices, however, state that on Sunday
a force of 8,000 rebels took possession of Fred
crick, Hd. that they crossed the Potomac
at Rolen's Ford to the number of 6,000 and
that the Union men in Frederick bad left, and
that our sick had been sent off and our stores
removed or burned. Further reports sa that
the rebel pickets had beea extended to Mid'
dletowa, nine miles north-west from Frcder
ick that all the Government stores had been
removed from Oagerstown to Chambersburg,
and that a large number of Union men had
left the former place for safety in this State
Such are tho reports that reach ns, and leaves
in uncertainty tho extent of the invasion. But
in view of the fact, that the rebels have cros
sed into Maryland, it behooves every true U-
tiion man to hold himself in readiness, for. fee
may soon be called upon to repel an invasion
of Pennsylvania.

Some one was saying to him on Tuesday
of last week, that probably the fate of
the nation would be sealed within tbree

war will have only just begun. Not nntil

If the question was put by the Government to

would yield the struggle, there would come

teres ting History of the Affair Details of the
Fighting Evacuation of Centreville Raid

Headquarters Gks. Pope's Army, Ces- I
treville Heights Va., Sept. 2.
The Special correspondent of the New York
Tribune, arrived at Centreville on Saturday
afternoon as Gen. Pope and the army of Vir
ginia were returning from the hard-fought
battle-Geld of Manassas Plain. Seven hun
dred Rebel prisoners were filed up the Fairfax
road in tho rear of Centreville, while Mc
Dowell's corps came sweeping up from the
battle. I continue the history of the retro
grade movement of the army of Virginra from
Saturday at six o'clock, up to which time a
full account has been furnished you by your
correspondent c. a. p.
Before commencing my report as an eye
witness I am enabled to give the following
succinct account of the previous four days'
fighting, through descriptions and data kindly
given me by Gen. Kearoey, tlaough his Chief
of Staff :
THE COMMENCEMENT.
While Gen. Pope was stationed at Warren
ton, the Rebels, under Jackson, Eweli, Long
street, Hill, Stewart, and Fitzhugh Lee, con
ceived the strategic movement of marching
the great mass of the Confederate army around
the head waters of the Rappahannock, through
Thoroughfare Gap, and thence to Manassas,
hoping to cut off the Army of Virginia from
its base of supplies, and hoping thereby to
starve it out or compel them to fight on their
chosen battle-field. As soon as Gen. Pope
was informed of the intended movement of
the Rebels, thinking the force to be smaller
than it really was, he set about capturing the
force between him and Washington, and to
keep open the route lrom bis army to his base
of supplies. Tho fiist appearance of the Reb
el Army, after moving through Thoroughfare
Gap, was-made at Bristow's Station on the
Orange and Alexandria Railroad. -Wednesday's
movement.
To carry out the plan of capturing the Reb
el force at Bristow's, Gens. Reno's and Kear
ney's divisions were dispatched from Warren
ton to Greenwich, on the Turnpike, north of
Manassas, to cut off the enemy if he should
plan a retreat back again to Thoroughfare
Gap. To prevent a similar movement on the
part of the enemy, Gen. Siegel was ordered to
Gainesville and Gen. McDowell was dispatch
ed to Thoroughfare Gap, Gen. Hooker was
advanced along the railroad to Bristow's Sta
tion, to attack the enemy in tho front, while
Gen. Banks was ordered to follow Gen. Hook
er as a reserve, in case the enemy should de
feat Hooker, and cause our forces to assume
a retrograde movement. The order to Mc
Dowell was also to keep Longstrcet and E well
from joining Jackson at Manassas by the way
or .thoroughfare (jap. McDowell was not
etriy" fronTbeihg re-enforced b'y the great mass
of the Rebel army. The enemy, in force, ar-
rived at Manassas on Wednesday evening,
when Ewell was sent to Bristow's Station, to
destroy what Union supplies there should be
standing en the track. EweM's force coming
up was met by Hooker coming down, and also
by Kearney, who had arrived by way of Green
wich. The fight at this station was a signal
victory on the part of Hooker and Kearney.
Through the combined infantry movement of
Hooker and artillery movement of Kearney,
700 prisoners were taken in this engagement,
beside some small-arms and accouterments.
The enemy were driven back to Manassas, and
as night came on they took possession of the
bights across Broad Run. Then both forces
rested. In this battle the loss of the enemy
was heavy, and among them were some of
their finest officers. Gen. Ewell was wound
ed in the leg by a shot from a rifled cannon,
and his leg has since been amputated.
Friday's fight.
At dawn ot day on Friday, Kearney, Reno,
and Hooker, of Heintzelman's corps, and
Sykes's division of Porter's corps, came up
before Manassas.
Birney's brigade was first on the battle
ground of Manassas at 7 o'clock on Friday
morning. The enemy had left the immediate
vicinity of the Junction, and the buildings
were burning behind them. Kearney's divis
ion was now ordered to march on, cross Bull
Run, near the Orange and Alexandria Rail
road, and move on Centreville, where the en
emy were reported to have been posted in con
siderable force. Kearney advanced, and drove
in their videttes, and crossed the Run without
opposition. One mile beyond fte bridge, on
a commanding bight, Kearney row made dis
position of bis troops for battle, sending out
skirmishers to the right and left, lice. After
the arrival of Kearney, advancing to within a
mile and a half of Centreville, they met a reg
iment of the enemy '8 cavalry, who immedi
ately charged on them. Our cavalry skir
mishers two companies of the 2d Pennsylva
nia Cavalry turned and fled, lhe enemy in
hot pursuit. On arriving ear our infantry
lino , they were met by a heavy Are from our
infantry skirmishers on the right and left of
the wood, and thrown back in confusion.
Geo. Birney here came near being taken pris
oner. The RebelCavalry seeing him in lront,
noticed his shoulder-straps, and then com
menced a scrub race for lffe 03 one hand and
a General on the other. However, Gen. Bir-
"v escaped. Kearney's Division now ad
T,n,Mto Centreville and occupied the works
without ,0iestation, Hooker and Reno en
camping titt, mileg ia the rear on Thnrgday
night, and Sieg.x 1Q coming Dp from the dj
rection of Manass. The st0De bridge was
destroyed and Siegel'. rmUber8 soon met
those of the enemy in tho on bftth sides

Run one mile above the bridge, Hbwg8
destroyed, and found Siegel' troops in linCwj
battle, their right resting on Leesburg road
and their left on Bull Run. Kearney imme
diately formed his troops to the right of Sie
gel, his right resting on Bull Run, the two Di
visions making a curve. Hooker and Reno
were the reserve. At 10 o'clock on Friday
the enemy were attacked by Siegel's right un
der Carl Shurz, which resulted in driving
them some distance. On two occasions Shurz
was hardly pressed, and was only able to stand
the shocks of the enemy through the superior
bravery of the 1st, 3d, and 8th New York
Regiments of Kearney's division. At 10:30
the enemy advanced in great force, and
Heintzelman's and Hooker's divisions of
Heintzelman's corps were ordered to the front.
Augur's brigade of Greenough's . division
fought the enemy for about two hours despe
rately, but being overpowered by superior
numbers, for the first time in the war Hooker
jel. back not, however, until Augur's brigade
had exposed his flank. The back movement
of our troops from their position exposed the
left of Kearney. The Rebels were now be
hind the embankment of a new railroad. Kear
ney, leaving one brigade to hold the right
flank of the Union forces, immediately chang
ed front and led two brigades to the assault,
attacking the enemy in the flank. ' This cross
fire drove the enemy across the railroad and
through the woods. Randolph's and Gra
ham's Batteries now let firo and sent the ene
my backward in a precipitate retreat.
The Rebels were now driven through the
cornfield beyond the railroad, from the woods;
and pressed bard by Birney's Brigade on to
the bights beyond. Night coming on, the
further progress of the Union forces was im
peded; but with the assistance of two regi
ments of Stephens's Brigade, Kearney main
tained his advanced position duriug the night.
Morning found them on the field.
Saturday's battle.
During the night of Friday and early Satur
day morning McDowell and Porter arrived.
Porter was sent to tarn the enemy's right,
and Ricketts's division of McDowell's corps
relieved Kearney in front. The morning
opened with slight skirmishing from Ricketts's
division. At two o'clock Porter opened the
attack. The cannonading soon became gen
eral, the enemy replying with heavy rifled
pieces. The infantry fire now commenced
and became general and severe along the
right, under Fitz John Porter, Siegel and Re
no. After a desperate fight of two hours, the
enemy forced McDowell's left and the left of
the army through the woods. This was at
four o'clock. Quite a panic now commenced,
but it was soon stopped. The enemy did not
seem to be aware of the advantage they had
gained, and before they could take advantage
of it our troops were ordered by Gen. Pope to
take a more commanding position upon the
bights commanding the plains beyond. The
enemy now- pressed through the edge of the
space. They now came on under a destruc
tivc fire of canister from all the batteries sta
tioned on the bights commanding the plain.
Their loss was now fearful, and they were
driven back to the woods. The fight now be
came general. The artillery shook the coun
try about, and the battle-field was the wrestle
with death. Ricketts was attacked, the en
eniy advancing in line under the cover of their
batteries. After a severe fight, McDowell's
corps fell back, owing to the concentration of
superior numbers on their decimated ranks.
The whole Infantry line of the left flank now
seemed to be in retreat, but they were simply
changing their position under orders from
Pope. The breaking of the left also made it
necessary to change the position of the right
Kearney on the extreme right was ordered to
cover this movement, and hold the enemy now
advancing in check. This was successfully
accomplished by a change of the main regi
ments of Birney's Brigade. Rickett's Divis
ion was now rallied on the hill with Kearney's,
and Kearney, Ricketts, Gibben, and Reno
were all that were left to dispute the advauce
of the enemy toward the bridge. Reno soon
became engaged on the left, and gallantly
drove the enemy back. Ricketts, at 7 o'clock,
under orders from Gen. Pope, fell back to
the bights of Centreville, Reno following at
8 o'clock. This left Kearney without support,
and with Gibben, the two Generals, the last
on the field, quietly withdrew to the Centre
ville bights, commanding the plain beyond.
Firing had ceased. Night came on, and the
Union army lay drawn out in battle array all
the night, but no enemy made his appearance.
Yesterday, though within sight of the enemy's
pickets, all was quiet, except a little shelling
of the woods on our part, and some slight
skirm ishing on the left. Our losses have been
heavy, especially among officers. The grand
aggtegate of all the detail movements within
the last four days has not resulted in a victo
ry to the Confederate or the Union forces.
They expected to cut off our supplies ; they
have not done it. Only about half of the Ar
my of the Peninsula were engaged. Sumner's
corps arrived on Sunday morning as a reserve,
add immediately took up the right wing of
the army, where they now stand, anxiously
awaiting the enemy.
Saturday night was a dismal night at Cen
treville. The army of Virginia, fortbree daya
victorious, was forced to take a backward
movement and rest on the laurels won... The
army had not been defeated, for out of the
combined forces, there were not 50,000 men
who on that day struck swords with the ene
my. Why the General commanding did not
so dispose of his forces that every regiment
should have the honor of meeting the enemy,
I do not know; but Generals have reluctantly
admitted the same , in my presence. . There
were apprehensions that the enemy had been
heavily re-enforced, and that before the arri
val of re-enforcements from McClellan the
Rebels might advance under the momentary
prestige they had gained, and throw, their
whole force on our left flank, commanded by
PV McDowell. As Franklin'a and Sumner's
"enforce swept up from Alexandria, these
apprehensions ceased, and the army was safe.
Gen. Sumner, with bis Peninsula veterans,
composed of Richardson's, Sedgwick's, and
Kimball's divisions, was posted on the right
wing, aud Franklin in the center. Fires were
built, tents were struck, and thus the army
lay on their arms until morning, awaiting the
enemy. Nothing of importance transpired
during the night.
Sunday morning dawned on the quiet lines
of both armies. A reconnoissance from on r
army revealed the fact that the enemy did not
attempt to follow after the battle of the day
before. Their videttes had not even penetra
ted as far as Bull Run. The truth is they had
not the heart or the power to follow. At two
o'clock on Sunday their pickets made a feint
show on our extreme left ; but they were soon
sent back by a few random shots from our ar
tillery. This movement on the part of the
enemy was no doubt made as a feint to draw
our attention from an intended raid on our
supply trains, extending to the right and rear
along the Fairfax road.
A raid on the wagon trains was made about
5 o'clock on Sunday, two miles from Fairfax
Court-House, toward Centreville, by a regi
ment of cavalry under Fitzhugh Lee. One
company of the 2d U. S. Cavalry were taken
prisoners, with Capt. Hight commanding the
company. A few random shots were fired in
to the wagon trains, which at this time exten
ded in a continuous line from Centreville to
Alexandria. No other damage was done than
to create a harmless excitement among the
civilians who thronged the thoroughfare.
Monday's operations.
On Monday morning intelligence was re
ceived at headquarters that the divisions of
Hill and Longstreet intended to appear on our
right in Jorce and cut off our. supply trains.
To prevent this consummation, the division
of Gen. Reno was dispatched by Gen. Pope
to Fairfax Court-House. It was also deemed
prudent to commence the evacuation of Cen
treville, to cover our base of operations, in
asmuch as Gens. Hill and Longstreet were
kuown to be in force some distance toward
Washington from the battle field of Saturday,
and as a reconnoissance to the front had re
vealed an anticipated movement in the same
direction by the enemy. The Army of Vii
ginia commenced retiring toward Fairfax
Court House on Monday at 9 o'clock, Reno's
division leading the march and McDowell's
corps following.
THE BATTLE BEYOND FAIRFAX COURT BOUSE.
As Reno's division was pursuing its line of
march, and when within one mile and a half
of Fail fax Court House, a heavy volley from
a force of riflemen came pouring in upon them
from the woods to the right of the road. This
occurrred at 4 p. in. The Rebel force was a
detachment from Gen. Hill's division, and
was commanded by Gen. Stewart. The vol
ley was almost entirely received by Gon. Ste
8th Mich., 50th Pa., 100th Pa., and 46th N. Y.
Reno and Stevens immediately formed their
commands in line of battle to repel the attack
of the enemy, now concealed in the thick
shrubbery ot the wood. Gen. Stevens rode
up and down his lines gallantly, rallying his
men, intimidated by repeated volleys from an
unseen enemy. Unable to cope with them in
me position they then held, Gen. Stevens or
dered his men to fix boyoncts and charce them
out throughl the woods. This order was gal
lantly responded to by his men, who pressed
the enemy and drove them before them with
great slaughter. While thus charging them,
Uen. btevens was hit with a Minie ball and
instantly killed, but not until the enemy had
been routed, Capt. Stevens, the son of the
General, was also wounded in the hand. Kear
ney s batteries now opened on the Rebel for
ces, causing sad havoc amonit the Rebel ranks
Skirmishing was kept up for about three
hours, when the enemy retreated, and the
train passed on unmolested.
Your correspondent passed over the battle
gronna at 10 o'clock on Monday evening.
The enemy 's loss was heavy. Their dead lay
in furrows where the first volley from Ste
vens's brigade went whistling among them,
and I thought the penalty for this raid was
amply severe. Gen. Stevens was ex Govern
or of Washington Tertitory, and is reported
to have fought most gallantly in the battle of
Saturday. m. d. l.
Cincinnati, Sept. 6. Conductor Woodall
made a reconnoissance, yesterday, with an en
gine on the Kentucky Central Railroad, and
proceeded to a point ten miles north of Cyn-
tbiana, where he discovered three men, who,
upon being hailed, said they . belonged to a
Georgia regiment. He afterwards discovered
tneir camp, but it was so hidden by busbes
that he couldn't make out their numbers. A
dispatch from Falmouth, one o'clock this
morning, says that scouts report the rebels
within four miles of that place with artillery.
A dispatch from Pomeroy, Ohio, says that
Spencer, Roane county, Va., surrendered to
Jenkins. Col. Ratbbone's command ti-pra fa.
prisoners. On Wednesday, Jenkins entered
Ravenswood, Va.,and the same evening cross
ed the Ohio at Buffington's Island, and came
down to Racine, Ohio, killing one man and
wounding two, and stealing twelve horses.
He then re-crossed the river at Wolfs bar.
and encamped for the night. The people
were rising to resist further attempts. A la
ter report says they are crossing at Racine.
and coming down on both sides. A dispatch
from Point Pleasant to the Military Commit
tee at Gallipolis says the contending forces
are now in sight of each other. ,, The enemy
is said to be 900 strong. A battle Imminent.
