PITTSBURGH, JULY 12, 1862
The War.
The last week has been a period of pain
-1111 tidings Terrible ,battics have been
fought, in front of Richmond, and though
our ttoops claim victories, and a remarka
ble 'success, yet their s victories have been
bad amid sad losses; and their F necess has
been the saving of an endangered army
from annihilation. The fact is that we have
lost some 15,000 to 20,000 m'n, 30 or 40
field pieces, much ammunition and army
stores, and are 15 miles farther from Rich
,
mond than we were on the morning of
June 26th. These are the lOsses. The
gains are, that we have a large acquisition
of military knowledge, by our experience;
we have escaped destruction from a vastly
overwhelming . force, which the enemy
in his despairl'hed collected; we hdPre
killed, wounded, and captured some 30,000
of the 'opposing troops; we have ,changed
our basis` of operations, so that our naval
and lend 'forces can cooperate ; We have
saved nearly all our material of war ; 'we
have taken some cannon; we have gotten
our army into a far more healthy and,inore
comfortable situation; and the country has
' learned more of the power of her foe, and
been incited to more vigorous efforts to of
feet his speedy conquest.
The grand failure of our Government
has been in underrating the power of the
enemy. Henoo the refusal of many regi
ments which tendered their services, and
the stopping of the recruiting service, and
the many hasty and inconsiderate advances
of, our troops, and the dire repulses which
we have experienced, and , hence the'-pro
tracted war, and the many deaths of ,brave
men, and the danger of embroilments with
foreign nations. We trust it will now ap
pear that having bought wit 'at a high
price, we have abandoned our folly.
Bomar three weeks ago it became manifest'
to Gen. MoMellen that he could not have
reinforcements adequate to overcome the
rapidly accumulating army of the enemy,
nor even to hold his own forany length of
.time. He must necessarily keep up his
connexions with his souroe of supplies, and
this, in his advanced position,
now
not be
done in presence of a foe now become
greatly his superior in numbers. He must
hence either
„ retire to West Point on the
York River, or he must so change his po
sition that his rear would rest on the James
River. The latter,' though the most diffi
cult to accomplish, promised the greatest
advantages to the army ,He accordingly
commepeed arrangements to that end; but
the watchful foe, who had been gathering
strength from every quarter to overwhelm
our army, speedily discovered the begin
nings of the movement, and hastened his
efforts to accomplish his own purpose.
2he contest was commenoed on Wednes-
day, June 26th, when, after a brisk fight,
our left, near Fair Oaks, advanced about a
mile,'and occupied the position which was
intended Wibe the right of the new line. On
Thursday the' enemy enghged ' our right
wing, near Mechanicsville. Our men,
about 25,000. in number, under Gene. Por
ter rand ~McCall, were assailed by Gen.
Jackson, with his Shenandoah army of
sortie 80,000, and by a large force from
Richmond. Our men, having the advanr
'tage of entrenchreent, made a stern resist
ance, Maintaining their ground through the
day, on most of the line, and destroying
many of the enemy. At night ours retired
some distance; and formed a newfine. On
Friday morning the enemy advanceCearly ,

and *ran, dtrogito.:l4 the; adVaneing foal
But our losses were very heav:y.--.Atmiglit,
our troops retired across the Ohickahominy-.
On Saturday there was not much fighting.
On §abbath ‘ our army, having sent its
\vegan trains forward, retreated toward the
James river, the enemy not annoying them
much. On 4piaday the enemy pressed
upon our rear, end there was, in the neigh
borhood of the White Oak Swamp bridge,
another terrible battle. The enemy were
still repulsed, and:, onr movements were
slow and in good order: By evening, the
cattle, the wagon trains, aNi the advance of
the army, had reached this river, at Turkey
Bend. On Tuesday our army-retired a few
miles down, theri , ver, to Harria,on's Land
ing, for the - sake - of a better situation: 'On
this day the enemy pressed halld,'"and' the
most: obstinate fight-of the week oi.hid.
It was, however, with less loss of life on
our part, and - with greater loss on his part.
It is astimated,that 10,000`;'± his men fell
on that Am, and his repulse was_ a. route.
.
It was of this'day's movements, ''an'd not of
the whole series of battles, that General
McClellan 4r6tet to the War Department
that he had lost but one gun and one
wag6n. Of the loins on the previous days
he Ihtntbefore spoken.
Our less is put at 1;5,000 to 20,000, and
the enemy's to 30,000 to 43,000, taking the
statements of prisoners, and of some Rich
mond papers,. which were captured. We
lost more prisoners
,_than he, and he lost
more in killed and wounded. The reason
of his greater loss on the field was, that our
men, at the beginning of the battle, fought
in their, trenches, also, our irtillery was su
perior 'in his; and further, trusting to his
numbers, he threw vast masses 'Of Men on
our lines, among whom our canister, grape,
and, shrapnel. made terrible haVoc. The
official lists, when made out, will, hnivever,
give numbers differing from the above
hasty estimates.
The result to uk is, that we hive a
stronger position for defence, than wer . jiad.
But defence is not our object. We would
advance; and in this aspect we have gained
nothing, unless , we can"' clear the Jangt,ll
river so that the'efinbepati prOceedei!n

The precise strength , of the two armies,
it is impossible for us to ascertain. Ours
was probably about 80,000. The enemy's
we see put at 175,000, and, even as high as
220,000. The last is doubtless an over
statement, and. even
.the first:may - be come=
what exaggerated.
The reverse sustained by our army is to
be deeply regretted, but it,may tend / to the
furtherance 'of cur clime; if only We' - shall
manage wisely. We have the strength to
overcome any amount of forces the enemy
can accumulate,-and his collecting them in
one place brings them more within our
reach, while it leaves other ; parts unpro
tected. We would greatly either have hiS'
200,000 men at Richmond, than divided
into three or four armies.
_Only let us
hold them there; inder 'elchinsting pro
cess, while we operate with energy in the
valley of the Mississippi. Let =that be
cleared out, and Richmond can be man

acres, all cleared but two or three small
but lovely groves. In these groies the
pleasure-seekers and the invalids,' from
New-York City, have for years found: a
pleasant and healthy resort. The Neptune

always afforded accommodations for them;

wounds, which I saw dressed with skillful
liands. Here was the'man whose feet were
both blown off by a shell. Here was one
who ha& received five bullets in his body.
Here was another through whose shoulder
and back had passed a grpe-shot weighing
a pound arid five ounces, and he had the
trophy. And here was another, through
whose scull there had been ploughed a
groove two inches wide, and so near to the
brain that its palpitations could be distinet
ly seen. The morning I first conversed with
him, two pieces of the scull bone had been
taken away, that were pressing upon the
brain. In relating The sensation produced
by the operation, he,told me that it felt as
thongh a train of 'ears was rushing, over his
brain."
T..t. is in scenes like these that we see
some of the terrible, eyils of, war. But the
necessity is upon us, and ithese young

sacrifice.

Mr. HOWE invites attention to the' important improvp
ciente which he has recently made in his Sewing Machines.
which enables them to do a larger range of work with lass
machinery, less noise, leeiatzotible, and more perfectly than
any Machine now before the public, 774 e teisednp of stitches
and breaking of needles, an common and annoying in other
Machines, is entirely done away with in the lerraov an
Howe. No trouble in making any garment worn by male or
female, howsver delicate or heavy. with silk, cotton, or linen
threads on the same Machine.. We Ilse a straight needle, and
the stitch is elastic and alike on. both sides. For Shirt
Makers, Dress Makers',Vailors, Shoe Binders, Gaiter Fitters,
as well as for every variety of Family Sewing, thetinproresi
Rowe Machine now stands far in advance of the Machine,: ,d
the day, and they will be sold at &Much-less price than any
other Machine capable of doing the same iangr of work in
as good a manner. No person should 'think of purchasing
a Sewing Machine ,without first geeing, tbia , —the latest and,
greatest triumph of the original inventor of the Sewing
Machine.
Persons at a distance can order a Machine with the Mann
factorer's
,gnarnutep that it will reach them safely, and prove
every way sattsfacterY. '
