We regret that we have not room to puniisn tnem at present Oar readers must ne content with a brief syurpMs. The Secretary of ar gives the following clear and Lighly satisfactory statement ,.of the pre sent cocdi-ion of the Army : Rigulars and Volunteers for G m.-nths and for the War, 235 000 Add to this 55 regiments of Vol unteers for the War, accepted nil not yet in service. 50.000 I Add new rts'toof re'iiiar armr.

It will be for Congress to determine whether this army shall at this time be increased by the addition of a still larger force. In making appointments of officers for the new regiments, the rule has been adopted of selecting one half of them from the regular army, and the other half from civil life. Of the civilians appointed as regimental officers, all, except one, are either graduates of West Point, or have before served with distinction in the field ; and of the Liutetacts, Colonels, Majors, Captains and first Lieutenant?, a large proportion have been taken from the regular army and the volunteers now in service, while the second lieutenants have been mainly created by the promotion of meritorious Sergeants, from the regular army. This is the testimony of Si nen, ai.l we presume his testimony is true. As the report of the Secretary of the Trea- j surv is of importance to our citizens ia a Pc ! ,..,r.";,,r ,r.i v;. w It L, lilfflv to arrest as .' V UIUI J - y - - ' - - J much attention, if not more, than -even that of the War Department. From it we learn, I that the Secretary in addition to the appro j priations already made by the last Congress, the sum of $217,lG8,8oO, nearly all of which it seems is for the army and Davy. For the fiscal year ending July 1st, 1SG2, the de mands upon the Treasury, are estimated at $318 519, 5S1, which he proposes to rai.se by the fallowing means : IJv fixation direct and indirect, $S0,000,000 liy Loans, 210,000,000 Ou the branch of his report, with regard to Ways and Means, the Secretary says : To provide the large sums required for ordina ry expenditure aud by the existing emergency, it is quite apparent that the duties? on imports, the chief resource for ordinary disbursements, wiil not he adequate. The deficiencies of the revenue, whether from imports or other sources, must necessarily be supplied bv direct taxation and from loans, and the problem to Lesoivtd is that of so proportion ing the former to the latter, and so adjusting the details of b.th, that the whole amount needed mav be obtained with certainty, with due econo my", with the least possible inconvenience, and with the greatest possible incidental benefit to the i eople. The Secretary has given to this important sub ject the best consideration which the urgency of the Tared public duties has allowed, and now submits to the consideration of Congress, with "re.it deference and no little distrust of his own judgment, tue conclusions to wi.ici i ne ".v- fn . , i i i . i . . - .

In ' i one year from thi3 timo, the National debt ! ! will be, at h-at, six hundred million of dol- i buithen of taxatien with which the people o the loyal States, especially of Pennsvlvania, j wiil be sndJL-d for years, will be sriev.-us to j be borne. But we presume they will like . true patriots, bear it patiently, and heroically j exclaim with all the self sacrificing devotion of a Ilcmeo " Coine taxes, and welcome, Lincoln wills it so." The rotten clothing and uuwholesome ra tions contracts of Gov. Curtin, and the nian- ; ner in which matters have been managed by i. tv- T-k . i - . ne ii ai KL-primem, gives us every assur- I aDCCi that not a cc-t mil La expended, but j what will be strictly necessary for carryi ins on the war. and that .conomy will h tho motto of the immortal Simon Cameron. Se- riously, wc may look cut for a grand scheme of plunder, fraud aud peculation, during the next few years, and magnificent fortunes will be amassed at the expense nf the people. But what of that? The people, in the way mat ters aro now managed, are very "small pota toes'' and have therefore, we suppose, no right to complain. &Ar lion. U. . Ma . of the Statfl Sr-n. rr w . . . ate, Las kindly forwarded us by mail, a file of the Legislative Ilecord for last session. He La3 been remarkably attentive, during Lis term of e Sice, in sendiug us valuable docu ments. For this our thanks are due, and are hereby tendered. We are not without a hope that be will one day get his eyes open, and become a Democrat. We neglected, last week, to acknowl edge the receipt from Col J M. Swank, our efficient County Superintendent, of the Penn sylvania School Report for 18G0. It is neatly bound and printed, and will be valuable to us hereafter as a matter of reference. Colone accord our thanks. Tlie President's Message. Although we are not willing to go eo far as those who contend, that even his brimstone Majesty, should be duly honored for bis burn ing throne, yet we do bold, that a certain amount of respect is duo to those who occupy high and responsible positions in the Nation. It is impossible to degrade the incumbent, without also in smie degree degrading the office, and weakening in the minds of the people, that feeling of reverence for the Gov ernment, which in a Republic is essential for its preservation. We therefore could never admire, either the patriotism or good taste of those, who during the administration of Mr. Buchanan, were in the habit of applying to him such degrading epithets as "an old scoun drel"; a hoary headed traitor"; "a second Judas," Sec. Feeliug thus, we have no dis position now to speak of Mr. Lincoln, save in the kindest and most respectful terms. We will not therefore say, that we believe, that as he was a first class rail-splitter, it would have been a happy thing for the country if he had remaiucd at the business; and that if in Illinois he was nothing more than a second rate lawyer, in Washington City he has prov ed himself to be not even a second rate states man. Neither will we insinuate, that he is nothing more than a political Mountebank, better fitted for playing the part of clown of the ring, than that of Chief Magistrate of the Republic- -but we do say, that his Message to Congress, which we publish on our first page this week, is not such a one as the people had a right to expect, at this fe-.irful crisis of their country's fate There is nothing either in the manner or matter of the document, calculated . ... , , ri - l!l, ir "'.""'"S - to them in this world, in a ds oc the acti,JU 0f tllC. 1 Nothing like exalted patiu to them m this worn, in all probability ce- presc-ut Congress nisi'i, freedom from i party tiia? or clear and logical reasoning is any where displ yed. From the glib mauncr in which the President talks of sugar-coated pills, one is almost compelid to believe, that Patent Medicio'i advert isem-'Uts are his favor- ' ite literature, and that he is willing to lend a helping Land to those who manufacture ! " physic for the million. " The history of the ' pedicy pursued by the Administration, from the f lurth of March till the bombardment of j Fort Sumter, was known to the whole country . weeks ago; while we have seen the elaborate ; argument to prove th ? fallacy of the secession doctrine, txcelitd iu the columns of almost . every pafer on our e-xehaogo list. The only i portion of the Mis.-ag.: worthy of any const 1- ration, is that in which ho asks for 4OU,U0O i - ..... men, ani v"." i' to carry on me war. For our part we o riial!y siy.let him have all that h-3 ak-, if this amount d men aLd trea sure is rei'ly tjccis-arv f r crushing out thi great re belli u.

This is certainly a decidedly left Lauded compliment, to the Ibm- cracy of ihe loyal States, for the prompt and enthusiastic manner iu which they j flocked to arms, after the bombardment of Fort Sumter. Hut fr them, it is very doubt ful whether or not Abraham Lincoln would to-day, be the iucimbent of the white house. At least two thirds of the volunteers now in the field arc Democrats. If their pa triotism was not worthy a compliment, it cer tainly did not merit a broad insult Uut it is highly probable, this is " a way" Mr. Lin coln Las about him, and that he can't help it. jT-fcfIt turns out upn exunination, that ' tlie eUOCrat'lc County Convention, commit- ted a blunder in nominating a candidate for the offioe of Auditor for oue year, as no such vacancy in the office now exists. Mr. Lytle was elected for only two years, and Lis term closed with the last Auditors' settlement. At the request of Mr. Ilhey. we withdraw his name from the ticket as published at the head of our paper CUTTJoward J. Roberts L'sq., chairman of the ' Peoples", or rather Black Republican, County Committee, Las issued a call for tLe election of delegates to a county convention, on Saturday 3rd of August next the conven tion to be held on the Monday following i when of course a Republican county ticket will be placed in the field. The campaign will then open in earnest CT'Johri W. Forney Las been elected cleik of the Unitet States Senate. TLe Republi cans are determined to well reward tbe rene gade for Lis treachery. All should not fail to read tLe adver- iscment of Prof. Wood in to-day's paperr. lulled. Since the adjournment of the Democratic Convention on Monday of last week, we have received from every section of the county, the most gratifying assurances, that its action gives universal satisfaction to the party. The ticket will everywhere throughout the county receive the united support of the Democracy, and this of course will be sufficient to secure its success. All past differences are now "in the deep bosom of the ocean buried," and we sincerely hope, there they will remain forever. The Democracy of Pennsylvania, should at once in every county in the State, unite and present an unbroken front to the enemy. The obvious efforts of the party now in power to revive the old Federal organization, to ignore the Constitution, undermine the Sovereignty of the States and secure the establishment of a consolidated military despotism, on the ruins of the Union, should arouse every lover of Constitutional liberty in the old Keystone, to prompt, determined and energetic action The National Administration must be sustain ed iu all legitimate and lawful efforts to put down the Southern rebellion, but it wiil not do to let it go unrebuked for its fiagrant viola tions of the Constitution. This war is cot merely an effort to conquer th revolted States, but also a struggle for the preservation of the Union and Constitution, as they were trans mitted to us by the sages and patriots who have cone to their reward. Jefferson Davis t and his followers, have violated the Constitu- j tion, and it is for this reason that we hear j them denounced on every hand as traitors, j and enemies of their country. It is this that ! makes them rebels and oui'aVs. If there tis j no Constitution there would be nj Uui.-n, and ! consequently no United States Government j to commit treason a-ainst. This shows how i important and sacred au instrument the Con stitution is. It is to maintain it in its iua force and vigor, tl at Lincoln aks for a sup ply from Congress, of four hundred thousand men, auJ four huudreJ million cf dollars in money. It is for this that the cry of blood ! blood 1 is borue on every breeze frou the Na tional Capitol, that reaches our cars. How important then, that while resistance to the enforcement of the Constitution is being put down, its letter aud spirit should bj rigidly carried out by Lincoln and bis Cabinet. This the citizens of the loyal States should sternly insist on. This alone will prevent the war from becoming instead of a struggle for the preservation of th-? Union, a cru i l" ajrit.st slavery, and a systematic effort to cstiL'.ish a consolodated Government, in this lan 1 of Washington, and home of liberty. We are noftho blind follower of Abraham Lincoln or any other man ; but we regard the Constitu tion as the palladium of all -iur rights as an Amciican citizen, and wo are ready tod- fend it even to the last drop of b! -od that warms cur heart, agaict the assaults of its- oncu.i a, we care not in what section of the Uui n tin y may dwell IlrHOliitioiKi .

C3-We publish with much pleasure the fol lowing communication, from a highly esteem ed friend in Loretto, although we cannot help thinking, that the whole affair is much " ado about Dothing." When we first perused the communication of " Amicus." we concluded to reject it on the ground that it was flat and uninteresting, and because its author bad not furnished us with, his real name ; but as it was very brief, we concluded, after consul ting with the publisher, to give it a place in our columns. Of course, if we bad known it wa3 intended to te personal, or contained insinuations calculated to wound the feelings of any one, we would not have published it; and now that it is before us in print, we must say, that we regard it as a nice milk and water document, too weak to offend any one but it may contain insiuations which we do not understand, and are therefore sorry that we published it. We hope that neither of our correspondents will allow any unkind feel ings to grow out of this foolish affair. Re member that Soft words turn away wrath, while grievous words, stir up anger."

TowNSExn : We are in jose? sion of all the enemy's w.rks up to a pei'-i within eight milts of Beverly. We be taken all Lis guns, a very large amount if wagons, tents, etc, as Well as everythicg be uaa, ana a large number c: priicre-rs, ns: t wuom Wire wounueJ. i-everal efiicers are prison rs. ihey lost many killed. e have bst in all, perhaps twenty killed and utty wounded, of whom, all tat two or thr?e were in the column under Rcseccranz, wLk1- turned the position. The mass of the eccay escaped through the woods eutirtly discraa- lzeJ. Among the prisoners is Dr. Tavlor. former ly of the army. Col. Pegram was in com mand, liosencranz's column left the c-mp yesterday morning, and marched some eight miles through the mountains, reaching tbe turrpike some two or three miles in tbe rear of the enemy, and defeating an advance force, and taking a couple of guns. I bad a posi tion ready for 1 guns near the main camp, and as the guns were moving up I ascertained that the enemy bad retreated. I am cow pushing on to Beverly, a Far of Rcsencranz's troops being now within three miles of it. Our success is complete, and al most bloodless. I doubt whether Wise ac Johnston will uaite to overpower me. The behavior of the troops in the action and w wards the prisoners was admirable. (Signed) G. B.
