" ThWr, The Philadelphia Age of It at night says ; The truth f General Grant's late move ment is at length explained. On both sides of 'he James he has been repulsed, War ren's Corps, neartho Weldon Railroad, was surprised and severely handled on Saturday, and lost two thousand prisoners and one thousand killed and wounded. It was forc ed almost a mile down the Weldon Railroad. On Saturday night the corps intrenched it self, and on Sunday was reinforced, most probably by a portion of Ilannock's Corps. On the North bank o. the James, as we re ported j'estcrday, Rirr. y . Corps was with drawn to Deep Button . On Friday night, however, General Ha: nock, finding his out posts endangered, ab: doned all that portion of White Oak Sn amp which ho had held north of tho village f New Market, On Si* rdav ho received u-dcrs to march to tho south side of tho Jai us. New Market was abandoned, and Ei oey's Corps, at Deep Bottom, was left to 1. la tho small amount of ground North of Foat.r's earthworks which it was thought r.eccsr ay to retain. Ilan nock's Corps er< ssed to the south side of the James, and it is supposed was sent to aid Warren. On Sunday night, when our intel ligence closed, everything was quiet. Wa ren was i. trenched on the Wehlou Railroad, and Eirne a' Deep Bottom. General Sherman seems to have given up any further ntt mpts either to reach the Ma- Con Railr< ,d c- t< get into Atlanta.

MT DEAR MAT TlE —The long summer days are slowly wearing away, and we can, in anticipation, at least, snuff the cool Sep tember nights, when sleeping is so much a ! luxury. The cool weather will be hailed as ■ a blessing by the soldiers, who have endur ed every degree of torture from the burning rays of the sun, on the field and in the | trenches. I Our Corps (the 6th) has not yet been re | lieved from along the line of the Upper Poto mac. and it is quite uncertain when it will be Meantime \ro have been knocked around, o:i | detached service, from one par t to another, until we are heartily tired of tho line of duty and devoutly wish for tho time to come when we can again be with our corps. We were | first hurried off to Baltimore, then to Wash | ington, then back to City Point, then from | point to point along the line. Last Friday afternoon we were ordered to report to the 6th Corps, immediately in front of Peters burg. and accordingly went into Lattery in the second line of intrenchments. It was pretty generally understood in the union lines, that night, that one of tho Rebel forts had been mined and was to bo blown up early in the morning—the event to be fol lowed by a general assault and the capture of the Rebel citadel, if possible. Everything looked favorable for such a result, and the night was passed in anxious, hopeful expec tation. At sunrise, on Saturday morning, the mine was sprung, and trie fort blown to atoms, burying many a poor unsuspecting fellow in its runins, At the same moment the arri.l tilJery opened upon tho enemy's lines and the infantry advanced to the assault. So far everything bus progressed favorably, and tho fall of Petersburg seemed a fixed, inevitable result; but something always seems to in tervene between this army and the accom plishment of its purposes, when the prom ises seem fa:rest ...id most certain. At one time it is a misunderstanding among Gener al officers—then the failure of some column to occupy i. desired position, ar J again the inefficiency of officers entrusted with import ant commands. But the repulse in the present instance can only* be charged where it is prop rly belongs, for it occured in plain sight of the army. The fir-1 line of battle, in Burnside's corps alter the skirmish liue, was occupied by his Division of negroes, and it was supposed af ter the line had advanced and tak en possession of the destroyed earthworks, that the darkies could hold the position against any force likely to be brought against it, but events did not justify the supposition, but proved, instead that our '• fellow so! - diers" of African descent are not possessed in the sin dlcsl degree, of the high soldierly qualities which has been defined for them by their special friends and admirers. Instead of wit. anding the shock oi the rebel charge which immediately foiiowc-1 the successful assault by <"*ir forces, they were driven, p. 11- im-llfrom their position, in the wildest con fusion. and if the fate of the army had de pended upon their prowess, we would all bo numbered am mg the Killed a wounded or prisoners of war. The white soldiers have looked upon Sam bo as quite an add.tion to the fighting mate ria! of the army and were quite willing that he should have an opportunity to justify the high enconiutns which have been passed so unspairingly upon him, whenever it was pos sible to raix hint up with passing eveots, without much regard to fac'.o or the actual fitness of the theme for tfie occasion. Now the soldiers are eupremclv disgusted with the gentleman and he is neither trusted nor tolerated amongst thom- This was the R'g get's first experience of actual battle, for though they have spent months upon the skirmish line in the trenches and in being drilled and disciplined, they have been to well cared for to be placed where more than the ordinary daily dangers of a soldiers field life would befall them. Now, it is a well at tested fact that our raw white regiments, w here they have the example of veteran troops befor them, almost invarriably make their first fight their best, and there 16 not a single instance upon record wherein they have not strivn to emulate and ever surpass the veteran soldiers by whose sides and un der whose eyes they were fighting. Your gentlemen of color, however, never stops to consider consequences, but without though t obeys the first law of nature, and trusts only to the virtue of his legs and t he blind instinct whicn leads him to the rear. As the fugi tives passed within easy canister range of our guns, our mo*> were so exasperated, that I verily believe it would have been a pleasure to ihem had they received the order to fire lIIIU the biuKnij flj 0 uiwoooo, #c O ui tlit* diggers" is now an expression common to all, and if curses would kill, ♦here would not be a live nigger in all the army of the Potomac. That P o, " rc ;burg is not now a Y'ankce pos session and that the only result of the weeks of sweat and toil aud careful engineering, is the loss of a few thousand from our already depleted ranks, is iC undoubted fault of the negro Division ; but the affair will be glossed over, 1 presume, rod set down us onv of those inevitable occurrences for which nobody is accountable and nobody to blame. Among the many humbugs which have grow n cut of this war, there is none that ranks higher than the much vaunted S uuU ry Commission, the labors aud charities of which have been so eulogized by sub: rned newspaper correspondents and others. It would be but just to tint public, which has made such liberal contributions to sustain it, were some person well acquainted with the manner in which the Sanitary Commission business is conducted here, t* make an ex pose of the proceedings of its agents, so that those who have fl.itterod themselves that tbey were sending luxuries and comforts to the 6-ck and and wounded soldiers might be grjtijied with a knowledge of hnw their charities had been dispensed and who reaped the Urge ihart of tli* fcr.efltt disposed of At City I'oint, there are now lying some four or five vessels loaded with Sanitaey 6tores and I aw informed that aui entire wharfi* devoted to the business of the Com. i mission. It baa, besides, vessels at Fortress Monroe, Norfolk, and in every harbor in possession of the United States army. These vessels are loaded with every variety of clothing, suitable for army use, tin ware, canned fruits, fresh vegetables, wines, bran. : dies, gin, whiskey, ruin, ale, porter, culer . and every other Known stimulant, in end. less quantities. The to are printed forms, for requisitions, furnished to the- officers of ! the different organizations thr ughout the army, and all that is nmv-ary to procure a ! wagon loud of anything desired is ' fill out ona of the blank forms, naming the articles | desired, sign any M. D., or mule driver's ( name to the bottom and load up your wagon. ! As a consequence, few of lbs articles furnish, i cd by the Sanitary ever reach those for whom : they were intended. The army officers fur nish their tables with luxuiiee, get fuddled on the stimulants and draw their shirts, drawers, &c. from this source. The coarse varieties of food—"saur kraut," pickles, cab- I bage, onious, Ac. fail to the share of the men, | but come so seldom and in such diminished ; quantities that they only furnish cause for I grumbling and are not received with any de i gree of thankfulness whatever, I do not doubt but that the Coiqrmssion has accom plished some good among the hospitals, but nothing in proportion to . demoralizing icflue eit lias exerted in other quarters, and if the whole arrangements were confined entirely to the hospitals or wiped out of ex : istance, it would be an abso'ute bless irg to I the array. As it is, it is only a whisky shop |on a large scale, furnishing employment to j scores of idle loafers, and a very convenient ' purveying estabi ishment for army officers, whereat goods are furnished, to their class, | tree for which the too credulous public pays. Hereafter, if you have anything to bestow , upen your country's defender- , send it, duect ito some acquaintance in the army, who will j need and appreciate the favor; but, by all i means, give the Sanitary Commission the | cold shoulder. It is an arra imposition, l as at pre-ent conducted, and the public ; should know it. The weather is not only excessively warm, I but tormentingly hot, anil, for one, I am not sorry that we are in the last mouth of Sum . ir.er. We are not in the trenches (thai is ' onr baft r< ) but eneompr lin Ihe vvn !*. near 1 Gen. AT ad's head quarters, and are thus par tially protected Irnm the i: ice rays <f the ; sun.

The Militia Bill, i A number of the Democratic members of I the* Legislature now in session, voted against Cur tin's Militia Bill assigning as their rea sons for so doing : "That the companies were not allowed to elect their officers; that the Troops cml 1 he drafted cut of the State into the N/ti mal I service; and that the seizure of private : property w is allowed." I'he follow fl g sound reasons for opposing .the measure wne submitted |>v Messrs. 1 Jackson and Kline. Wo publish, in fuli, that our may know SOUli-lliiilg ot ; the measure as well as the reasor f the vote j of our faithful Representative, Gen. D. Jack. I son. Messrs. JACKSON and KLINE submitted j the following objections : The undersigned respectfully submit the j follow ing reasons for noting against the final ! passage of House Bill No. 1557, entitled *' a i supplement to the act for the organization, j discipline and regulation of the militia of the j Common wealth of Pennsylvania, anproved •May 4th. A.I) 18C4 " The inaj'TM v of this IT >use, whilst making loud prof--stations of loyalty and claiming to be par c.rretlevee the true and only friends of the soldier, have atteinp't 1 to deprive him of the right of electing his own offi ers, and by this bill place the. power of appointing the regimental oificeio in the hands of the Governor. To this we object as being wrong and con. trarv tifSi precedent. 2d. The bill place# in the hands of the Governor, a power which, in ur opinion, should never be pi seed in the hands of any single individual, viz : The power of de>ig. nating in what portions of the State a draft shall be made for the purpose of filling up the State Guard, leaving it in his power, if he sees fit, to draft the whole number re, qui red from Berks, Northampton and Co. lum bia, whilst Lancaster, Allegheny and others go free, 3rd. The Shite of Pennsylvania lias already furnished for the Unitee States army over 280,000 men, and ou the sth of September will be again required to furnish by draft 05.000 or 70.000 more ; and past experience teaches us, that the men composing the State Guard will not be exempt from a national draft, but that on the contre. " after getting the ni her required from the State to fill up the quota, the VV .. Department 'will order the State Guard to the front. The officers will obey. The " Guard" will be sent for, ward although the Gavernor may gently re. monsfaite, and thus Pennsylvania ba corn, polled (at a great expense to her people) i< furnish more thru tier share of troops, and then witb >ut any soldiers when again in vad. ee, she calls upon the Federal administration or help, will he cooiy told to defend herself. Whilst anxious that a sufficient, force sho'd be organized for the defence of the State for these among other reasons, vve are reluctant, ly compelled to vote no on the passage of this bill. Geo. L, f "kson, Chas. A. Klinf.. 'I be following are the reason* ~f Mr. SE A. RIGHT for voting /gainst the bill : Dt. I e hill i> designed ostensibly to ere. r.fe a military force- for the defence of the State, :tnl 1i.0.-am of • 0 Je>.< >uo i> appropri. ated for that object, vet it mntaius no provision t*< prevent the President ol the • 5. from dialling the said hue into the Federal a rviee and Using it i i p.- secutmg the war against tl-<- South, thus leaving the Stnie utterly defenceless. 2d. It outers the right on ihe Governor (which must be used b\ hi* Mibdornates ) to "take and seize horses" and other proper ty at the mere will, whun or caprice of said 1 subdornates. 3d. 11 withholds from the men tho right j to elect their own officers. 4ih. It ignores the principle of State rights i—a principle which I regard as essential to the maintainace of the Constitution and the prosecution of the war, sth. It ptovides for a draft, and does not require it to be made from the State at large, and only from such count iea as tha Gvcamor mr designate.
