The Common Councils of Philadelphia
have rejected, the bill appropriating „i500,-
000 ,q7ir paying the exemptions of poor
drafted men, IS Democrats voting for it,
and IS RelSublicans and . l Democrats
against it. A bill subsequently passed,
appropriating 51,000,000 or the relief of
the families of drafted Mtn. The Mayor
of New York has vetoed the appropria
tion passed by the Councils of that City.
Gen. Blunt, with 2400 men, orrthe 16th
attacked 5,000 rebels under Gen.
Cooper, on Elk)Creek; in the Indian Ter
ritory, and after a short contest put theta
to flight, killing 60,4 ind taking a hundred
prisoners.
_The pirate Florida has again been heard
from, having destroyed some 15 or 20
. more of our vessels.
A dispatch to the Herald says the Brit
ish- Government has been informed by
If.r. Seward that the United States will
not permit the fitting out of any more
rebel war vessels, to prey upon our cont.-
coerce; and that if it is allowed to pro-
teed we 81111 not hesitate to go into Brit
ish porta to capture such vessels. If this
be war, addi the 'writer, England must
mike the most of it.
Grant's army is - again falling back to
Viesburg, the cause given being that
there is no healthy water in his front.
The rebel army in that quarter is being
reorganized and enlarged. Gen. Joseph
Johnson is charged by Southern papers
with defection to the Confederacy.
The rebel army under Lea is supposed
to be in the neighborhood of Culpepper,
Va. It is thought that they will make
a_stan4,l along thaline of the Rappahan
nock, perhaps on the old ground at_Fred
ericksburg. Gen: Lee publishes a letter
denying that we captured any more than
a few stragglers ay, the crossing of the

talk as saucy as ever, but there is a tone
of discouragemenfon the part of a few,

as having been dismissed from the Fede

presume, means that they do not \ andorse

the course of the -ndministra ion.\ \ lt is
easy to NM how the army is to e made a
unit in favor of the opposition.
The rebels are pressing eve body into
the ;ernes between the ages of 18 and 20
years. Imagine the "plieelinks" in that
section about this time.
Intelligent rebel Officers,prisoners in our
hands, are represented ali o elf agreeing
that the Confederacy is passing through
its glint:Meat days.
The rebels•have again invaded Ken
tacky, with a small force, approaching to
near Lexington. 'Tile excitement was in
tense for a while but is subsiding. Our
forces are said to have the audacious rah.
els surrounded.
A company of cavalry, while foraging
near Jackson, Mail., were informed by a
negro where Jeff. Davit' library was, and
prOceeding to the house, found thousands
of books, a few bushels of private, papers,
end other valuable articles. Of course ev

to be of great political importance, giving
a complete history'of the moVements by
which the rebellion was brought into life.
The Governor of New Jersey has pro
cured d postponement of the draft in that
state for 30 days, and is making an effost
to fill up the quota by volunteering. •
The intercepted letters between Davis
and Lee, captnred about the time of the
battleof Gettysburg, have been published.
They show plainly enough how straitened
in numbers the rebel armies ere..
The rebel guerillas are again beginning
to infest the interior of Missouri. They
deal alike from friend and foe.
Our forces 4ar Charleston made a ootu
blued land and naval attack on the 18th
of July, upon Fort Wagner, which is' sup
posed to cothmand the key to Sumter.
A tremendouseterm of shot aid shell was
poured upon the Fort; but with scarcely
any damagingeffect. The rebels only-re
plied at long intervals, seeming to regard
our efforts with:complete disdain. Finally
a storming party of three brigades was
sent against the Fort, who were repulsed
with•fesrfal slaughter. Oar loss is about

meet on the sth of: August next, at Pitts
burg. `fhe tinse l led been previously set
for the Ist of the last month, but was

ZRON. The (t er person, it is well under.
stood, is mosVintensely hostile to CURTIN,
and foreseeing that the Goiernor would
be re-nominated if the Convention was

having it postponed. The rebel raid oc
curring about the sane period, gaie them
a•good opportunity to lay-claim to excel'.
Sive patriotism, by declaing that the
change of time was made to enable the
delegates to volunteer for the defence 'of
the State; but everybody who known any
thing about political matters, knows that
it was entirely owing to the quarrel of
Shelia two rival politicians. So far from
any of the delegates having enlisted in
the military service, we know of two at
least, who took heels and run underneath
the protecting wings of tne "Copperhead"
Governor of New Jersey, until the danger
bad passed. •
Caltszon is determined to beat CURTIN
if possible, and is said to have threatened
that if he is nominated, he will take the
stump against him. The policy of the
ex-Secretary and his friends appears to be
the selection of some man who has been
connected with the Demiltrats, in the
hope of seducing enough members of our
organization from their party allegiance
to elect him. In this scheine, we are con
fident, they -wilt be defeated. Judge
Wooewsen'a strength is - filet-easing daily,
and his election is cones by many of
the Repuhlicaiiii even. The editor of the
Clinton Dema-rat, who is protebly as well
posted up in' the political ffairs of the
gtate, as any man within its limits, gives
the followingaeoount of !the efforts that.

trap some Democrat into accepting the
opposition nommatioil :
" Judge Strong, of the 'Supreme Court,
(born a Federalist and a Yankee,) once a
citizen of Berke and a professed Democrat,
but now said to be an Abolitionist. was
solicited but is said to .have declined.
Judge Thompson,i-of Erie county, was
tried but in vain. Judge, Grier, it is also
told, was tried but not succefusfully. If
the wing-of the Republicans who favor
these ideas succeed in obtaining a ma
jority of the Convention, we suppose they
will find some seedy individual who was
once a Democrat, or professed to be, who
will accept their nomination. We don't
care much whd they bring forward, but
Would rather prefer Curtin. He needs
ventilation and-thrashing about as badly
as any official we ever had in this State,
and if he again becomes ;3 candidate he
will receive both."

WARD Was written litany yeara ago, while
he was amember of the Conventionwhich
framed the State Constitution. lie was
then only starting out on his public ca
reer, but his brilliant talent - I had already
attracted attention. The, high anticipa
tions then made of the man have all been
rettliied, and today he stands without a
superior 'in the State on the score of per
sonal worth, public virtue, and mental
attainments :
"GEORGE W. WOODWARD, Oi LEURRE.-
Mr; Woodward, of Luzern, site next to
Mr. lirCahen.. He is very tall and slen
der, and very pale. His look, voice and
manner indicate that he is a young man
of no ordinary cast, and of his age-.for
he is but twenty-eight years old—l ques
tion whether he has many superiors,
either in Pennsylvaniti or in the Union.
Cool, firm and dignified, the observer will
at once perceive, when he touches a sub
ject, that a giant's grasp is• upon it. - His
voice is clear and agreeable—his language
plain but well chosen, and he possesses
that rare faculty of knowing when to
'stop, and seldom says either too much or
too little upon the theme in discussion.
He is always listened to with the greatest
attention, and the best evidence of the
estimation in which he is held may be
found in the fact that such men as Chaun
cey, Hopkinson, Forward, hc., are gener
ally found to overlook others in debate,
to grapple with him. To a stranger, Mr.
Woodward appears self-poised; coldheart
ed, and calculating, but in private life he
is understood to be warm in his attach
ments, and probably from precarious
health, is subject to great fluctuation of
spirits. He is gifted, however, with an
unusual share of self-control. •He is a
lawyer. The political party to which he
'ls attached has reason to be proud of such
a member, and 4onstitutional reform has
few sincerer or more powerful advocates."
WY mats that on the night of the 18th
inst., some person or persons unknown,
by means of a ladder, entered the back
window of the office of the Provost Mar
shal of Bradfoid county, In the town of
Troy, andatole therefrom all the books,
papers, vouchers, blanks, ' &c., appertain
ing and belonging to the draft in that
.Congressional district. It is apprehended
that this robbery will cause a suspension
of the draft ,in the district for some weeks,
is a vast amount of labor must be per
formed before the papers can again be
made ready for drafting. Most of the en
rolling officers failed to preserve a copy
of the enrollisent. Bradford runty gave
five thousand majority for Lincoln at the
last Presidential election.
1F iv_ be true, that to oppose the Na
tional Administration is treason, is it not
also treasonable to denounce the Admin
istration of a State ? Or, in other word;
if Mr. LINCOLN'S Atlministratibsi be the
Federal Government, is not Gov. Sty
stous's the Government of New York
'We ask the question, because we notice
that those papers in New York—like the
Tribune, Times, Past and Buffalo Expren—
which demand the moat slavish subset
vience to the acts of Mr. LINCOLN, on the
"ground that to oppose his Administration
is to oppose the Government, are the fore
most in abuse of the Governor and other
Democratic oboe-hqfd . era in their ewn

frothy ejaculations and extensive use of
•bravado, that the people of the Contede
racy are sadly discouraged over the
gloomy results of; the campaign, and that
a large party is giovving up there is . favor
of giving up the fight , and returning to
the Union. Indeed, this feeling is said
to have grown strong enough in North
Carolina to have obtained control of the
Legislature, while in Georgia, and por
tions of Northern Alabama and Eastern
Tennessee the Union party embraces a
large portion, if not a majority, of the in
haNtants. Under such circumstances,
what do the dictates of common sense re
quire the Administration to do Ti Is it not
to abandon - its Abolition policy--its acts
of confiscation and proclamations of
emancipation—and, standing on the sim

old Constitution, invite the Southern peo

and once more become law-abiding citi

that the war •could be stopped, and the
