The War.
"We have neither victories nor defeats to
record, for the last week. There have been
a few skirmishes and raids, but no battles.
Neither has there been much of army move
ment& We may regard ourselves as on
the defensive throughout our whole line.
All this comes of listening, last Winter
and Spring, to our politicians who assumed
to know more than the 'Generals of our
armies. 'They raised such 'a clamor, as to
stop recruiting and to urge our armies into
) the field too early in the season, and to make
-attempts beyond their power to acquire and
hold. And the worst feature in our coun
try's prospects.now, is a continuance of un
reasonable darner. Our Generals are
blamed for not, doing what it was impossi
ble to do with the means which the coun
try gave them. The enemy's abilities are
still far underrated. Men are not called
out on our part in sufficient numbers, to
make sure worlc. We are given to dissen
tions. The result must necessarily be
deeper distress, The people should take,
in regard to their party fault-finders, the
Apostolic direction : Mark them who cause
divisions among you, and avoid them.
One new feature is encouraging. The
President and Secretary of War have con
cluded to put a military man at the head of
the army. If they will hereafter have the
good sense to resist the clamor of the would
be-wise, and not interfere with General
Halleck's arrangements, and not compel
,
him to order advances before he is ready,
nor farther than he knows to be wise, nor
without an adequate force, we may yet re
cover our losses, and make permanent con
quests, If Gem Scott had been Permitted
to move according to his own good sense,
the disaster of Bull Run would never have
occurred, and Richmond would likely have
been ours last September. Too much haste
lost the campaign, encouraged and united
the enemy, and prejudiced our oause in the
eyes of Europe. If the advice of M'Olel
lan and Halle* had been taken, our armies
would not have moved in the Spring, till
the snows were gone, and the ground some
what dried; thus we would have saved
some sixty thousand good soldiers, who
have either died or been disabled by expo-.
sure, and our advances would have been
sure, whether rapid or slow.
There is no national prospect of success;
till we submit to military science, in the
conducting of our operations. We have to
contend against science. Jefferson Davis
is a military man, He has foresight and
skill. He adapts means to an end. And
he is permitted to act the Autocrat. He
saw that we had stopped recruiting. He
hence knowing what our force was and
how much it would waste in a given time,
knew just what number of men he must
have to overcome it. He accordingly, when
recruiting dragged slowly, resorted to con
scription, and promptly raised the requisite
army. He also saw that our army was cut
up, without union under a military head ;
he hence manceuvered so as to have our
forces dispersed while he could rapidly con
centrate his.
Well, a It-public differs much from an
Autocracy, and is, upon the whole, im
mensely preferable. But it is always weak
by aspirants for office; by divided counsels ;
by a Commingled impatience, slowness, and
vascillation. It will seldom act with unity,
.
merge and,. patient,perseverance, till it is
reduced tc : , great straits. Have 'we suffered
e i
suffic,j, et -.calamities to,, make us, wise. It
l
is dcr‘ tfAl4;t,liut still we hope. The old
Roman Republic was obliged, on several
occasionSWOrder to , Saye itt4 'lite, to give
itself into. the 'hands of an Autocrat, a Dic
tator:: •:We trust .that this sad ,necessity
may 'neiter •corne upon our Anierican, 40 4 ,
publio.' d We linVii far inorelnewledge than
they, anditould have far - inore Virtue. ' '
Will4lren. the people T-henceforth cease
their clamors, and especially their dicta
tion, and allow the Government to conduct
the war ? Will they furnish an army ade
quate to the task before us ? Will they pay
their taxes promptly, and sustain the credit
of the country 7 ,If, they will, another year
may see us through the -war, But if our
Generals are driven to lusty action, then
necessarily we meet reverses, and Vie war
must be prolonged, and the couptry. still
suffer, The country had the strength, if
it had been wisely brought oirt an. put
forth, to have clr.ushed the rebellion ere
this. Bo we spoke at the first. And sill
the nation has the strength, though it .wi
need far,, far more now than was needfu
fifteen 'months ago. We were for a short
war. :lire are still for a short war. But to
make it short we must bring out in ade
.
quate *mee t and Inuit move wiielyiand
promptly, and vigbrousli., Hagen sioioty.
Advance surely.. told . every' inch of grontid
we take: wet union men, in reheLterritory,
feel assured that they are safe,,and they
will yet came out.
t. f We. do not know that the Government
!I n let quite up to the spirit needed, We
hive great confidence in it, but would still
urge it to the use of all proper means—all
needful means--means which will certainly
and speedily be effective,,to put down the
rebellion. The enemy must be conquered—
conquered by main force. Honied coaxing
is all: uselet3s, Let us then gi;vet our confi
dence WA() President and the 'Secretary.
of War, sail „the new Commander-0-Chief,
and to McClellan, and Pope, and Buell,
and Grant, and Butler, and Burnside, and
Hunter, and Curtie. They are all, true,
men, patriots thoroughly. And they have
skill, energy, and caution. Their, - ,glory
will be in victories. Needless delays are
their shame. They know it. They feel. it.
Not one of them will delay one hour need
lessly, Slow as some deena them, theile is
-not one of them, not even the scientifi t c IVIO
Clellan, or the strategic Halleck, so slow
but that we have more to fear from his un
due ardor, than from 1 s needless hesita
tion. Give them the l inV 4
the supplies,
and the material of war, and they will,
each and all of them, advance promptly,
and from victory to victory. They all
have now experience added to their sci
ence ; and if they have not yet shown
the consummate ability of a Napoleon
the Ist, they have yet shown great cape
pacity for managing an army. It will be
our wisdom to use them. We know that
they are safe men, and that with them we
can conquer. Use them at least till some
thing better .shall be developed beyond a
peradventure.
What we want, just now, is men—men
enough to be really strong. And with
these, let us urge upon the. Government the
use of every legitimate means of victory
which God has plaeed within our reach. If
the war shall be delayed it will be the fault
of the people, , giving heed to demagogues,
selfish aspirants, the fomenters of discord,
and not the fault either of the Government
or the Generals.
PERSONAL.
Martin Van Boren, the eighth President
of the United States, was born at Kinder
hook, New-York, December 5, 1782, and
died at th - ,lace,-Julv 24, 1862;
at the same re 24, 18132; he
was, therefore, in the eightieth year of his
age at his death: The family is descended
from the old Dutch stock, which some two
hundred years since occupied Manhattan
Island, and laid the foundation of the set
tlement which under English rule beeame
New-York. Mr. Van Buren was educated
as a lawyer, and at the age of twenty-eight
became Surrogate of Columbia County.
He was subsequently elected to the Senate
of the State, and while there displayed
that test of political ability, the attainment
of two offices, becoming Attorney-General.
He was repeatedly elected and appointed
to high political positions, holding in 1828
the offices of United States Senator, Gov
ernor of New-York and Secretary of State
in Jackson's Cabinet. He was elected
Vice-President in 1832, and President in
18313; was re-nominated and defeated by
Harrison in 1840 ; lost the Democratic
nomination in 1844, by the two-thirds'
rule; and in 1848 appeared as the nominee
of the Free Soil Party. He was thus
brought forward on the Naiional ticket five
times consecutively. He was a shrewd
manager of party affairs,
but was never
put forward, even by his friends, as a: man
of,great. ability. For the past eighteen
years he has mingled but little in politics.
Inn. Charles J. Faulkaer, wife of the late
United States Minister to France, is one of
the most dangerous and' 'vicious secession
ists within our lines. 'She is bold, ambi
tious, and intriguing. She thrust her hus
band into the French embassy, where he
prostituted- his mission as our Minister
abroad to procure the most efficient means
of destroying the Government he- repre
sented. She, with her family, are living
quietly. and safely within our lines near
Martinsburg, Va., under the protection of
our flag. Faulkner himself is at the South,
aiding the rebellion with every means in
his, power. Their harvests are being gath
ered, and their property protected. Mrs.
Faulkner holds nightly levees, to which
the young officers of our army are invited
and pumped of all the information they
possess. All she learns—and she learns all
her guests know—is, of course, immedi
ately transmitted to the rebel Government.

This caused great ,complaint, from the 'other
States; and the General Government has found
it needful to issue the following :
WAR; DEPASTNENT, WASHINGTON,
July 28, 1882.
To His 'Excellency, A. G. Curtin, Governor of
Pennsylvania :—Sir have been directed to
adiise you that the system of enlisting recruits
for nine and twelve months, adopted in Pennsyl
vania, has produced great dissatisfaction in tith
er States, which have confined themselves to en
listments for three years et:Awing .the war.
PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.---SATURDAY, AUGUST 2, 1862.
This systern, as you are aware, was adopted
without any intention on the part of your Ex
cellency:or of the General Government to make
an unfair distribution b4ween the States. The
War Department, entertaining an earnest desire
to act in harmony with the State Government,
and a strong sense of the earnest and efficient
aid which it has always promptly received from
your Eau'lvey, and it is only because the De
partment is ally satisfied of the inexpediency of
short enlistments. the impossibility of extending
the system to other States, and the justice of the
complaints already adverted to, that a change is
proposed in Pennsylvania. Herfee; the Secre
tary of War is compelled to ask your Excel
lency to change your system of recruiting and
let your regiments go to the field on an equality,
in every respect, with those from other States.
The mustering-in off cer will continue to muster
into service recruits enlisted for nine and twelve
months until the 10th of August next. At
which time, it is supposed, the change suggested
will have been completed. By orclar of the Sec
retary of War, C. P. BUCKINOHAN.
'Brigadier-General and A. A. G.
In accordance with the above, Gov. Curtin has
issued this order:
HEADQUARTERS PENNSYLVANIA
Harrisburg, July 29, 1862.
General Order, No. 81.—lst. in pursuance of
the foregoing communication from the War De
partment, no more authority to recruit men for
the nine months' term of service will be issued
from these headquarters.
2d. All persons now engaged in recruiting
squads for that term of service under General.
Orders Nos. 28 and SO, of this series, are order
ed to report their squads, whether complete or
incomplete, to Capt. William B. Lane, U. S. A.,
Mustering and Disbursing Officer, at Harrisburg,
before the tenth day of August next, that they
may be mustered into the service of the United
States for the nine months for which they have
been enlisted, and the advanced months' pay
premium and bounty to which they will be en
titled. After that date, all enlistments for new
regiments under the late call of the President,
will be for three years pr during the war.
3d. Authorities to recruit for thime years or
during the war, will be issued:under General Or
der, No. 80, of these headquarters, and all per
sons to whom authority has already been granted
can continue to enlist men for three years or
war term of service.
4th. Persons enlisted for nine months may
change their term of enlistment for that of three
Years or during the war, at any time before they
are organized into companies. By order of
A. Q. CURTIN,
Governor and Commander-in-Chief.
A. L. Russell.
Adjutant-General of Pennsylvania.
It is deeply to be regretted that Pennsylvania
should be defectiie. No State in the Union has
a deeper iaterest in the success of , the war. No
State needs more the aid of her sister States.
We are a border State. If our armies fail, the
enemy will invade us first. Fire and sword will
be our speedy portion, at the hand of a relent
less foe. Flight, or captivity and slaughter, will
be our lot. Pennsylvania will be the battle-field.
This the South has often threatened ; and then,
what woe! Now is the time to prevent the direst
of calamities. -
Everybody and Nobody.
At a late meeting in Indianapolis, Gen. Du
mont discussed the war policy, with much abil
ity. The following extract of his speech has
interest:
"In the South every man has gone to the war.
The consoription takes everybody, and yet irtakes
nobody at all. In the eye of the Almighty, no
body is worth as much as a red-headed wood
pecker unless he works. No recruits who enter
the Southern army go there with sun-embrown
ed foreheads and hands hardened by honest in
dustry. The demand ft* troops takes' away a
set of pampered men—very good men for the
purpose—men who are a sort of walking arse
nals, not devoid of courage or talent;.but it
takes away nobody from the producing 'biasses—
in other words, it takes away nobody at all.
Take the three Congressional districts lying
immediately around Nashville. Go among the
people there and you will, find that et nearly ev
ery house you come to, thc lady is a widow, and
she seeks protection for herself and her property,
by repeated declarations that she is a lone widow,.
left with a large number of negroes to look after.
But when you come to investigate the matter
a little more closely, you will find; almost with
out exception, that the negroes belong to men
who are in the field with the gun upon their
shoulders and the knapsack upon their backs;
men who, forgetful of their most sacred duty to
their country, have taken up arms against the
best Government the sun ever shone upon.
Well, why can these men go to war while you
cannot? Simply because they have the negroes
at home to work for them, and you have noth
ing -to depend upon but your own honest
industry. Besides, when, as is most gen
erally the case, the wife herself is the
better man of the two, 'the property is as
well taken care of in the absence of the hus
band, as when he is at home, and thus these men
can go into the army and stay there until the last
star falls from heaven, and their wives and chil
dren be none the worse off by it. Within- the
territory I have, mentioned there are one hundred
thousand slaves, toiling day after day, cheer
fully and uncomplainingly for the support of
their masters, who are in the rebel army. Now,
suppose you give notice to all mankind, and the
human family in particular, that every man who
shall fail to return to his allegiance within a
given time, bring forth fruits meet for repen
tance and'give suitable guarantees for 'his good
behavior in the future—his negroes shall be con
fiscated. `Don't you suppose there would be a
terrible skedaddling among these men about that
time? They would soon learn by a mysterious
intimation of Divine Providence that they had
got their rights already, and that the best thing
they could do was to go home and enjoy them.
I happened to meet one day in the road near
Nashville, a young man whose appearance was
wretched and sorrowful enough: Z saw by his
clothing that he had been in the army, and I said
to him,
' My friend, where are you . going,to,?'
Said he, am going back to.ald Kentuelt.'
Where have you been, and what have you
been doing?'
His reply was, I was a soldier,in the secesh
army.'
Well, said I, 'Row long did it take you to
get your rights after you got them? '
4 Oh,' said I had them before .1 started,
but I didn't know it.' "

He has been busily engaged during the day. It

control of all military affairs. There is no doubt
that the war will be prosecuted hereafter with

in grca. consternation, especially those who re
cently deserted from the rebel cause, and took the
oath of allegiance to this Government.
On inquiry, there is authority for saying that

without foundation. •
An arrangement has been made by which the

with the example set them, by this Government.
This morning, the Secretary of the Treasury

The Richmond Enquirer, of the 23d ult., in its

knowledgment of our quasi nationality. We are
by it made belligerents, and the Government of
the United States treats with the Government of
the Confederate States through Commissioners."
The Enquirer has a long list • of the hospitals in
Richmond, including fifteen ,army hospitals, six
private hospitals and some thirty additional hos
pitals just opened.
It is intiniate.d, on authority of Et distinguished
Senator, - that the President will speedily issue a
proclamation' offering an amnesty to the rebels
in arms in the Border States, and announcing
that the offer will be extended from time to, time
to rebels in Ohm: States as progress in subduing
the rebellion may warrant, and adopting a policy
of employing negroes in any military service in
which they may be' successfully used, and giving
them freedom therefor..
-July 26.—A definition of the position of Secre
tary Seward, evidently authoiitative, is pub
lished this morning, from which; in the lan
guage of the article, it appears he is content, as
he hitherto has been, to remain where he is, so
long as this causeless and iniquitous war contin
ues, and so long as the chosen Chief Magistrate
of the country requires it., even though his advice
should be overruled, which happens very rarely,
and then mcases which his own judgment, better
informed, approves.
The rebel authorities of the War Department,
we learn through Gen. Dix, have ordered the un
conditional discharge of all the National Sur
geons and army Chaplains taken- prisoners in
discharge of their legitimate duties. This is in
accordance with the example set them by the
Government.
The designation in general order No. 125 from
the Headquarters of the Army of the Potomac, of,
the forces coinmanded by Brig. Gene. Porter and
Franklin, as the fifth and sixth army corPs, is
confirmed by the War Department. The forces
under Maj. Gen. Dix will constitute the 7th,
those under Maj. Gen. Wool the Bth, and those
under Maj. Gen. Burusides, belonging to the de 7
pertinent of North Carolina, the 9th army corps,
respectively.
General Marcy's health having been restored,
he has resumed his duties as_Chief of General
McClellan's Stiff.
The President is fully as much besieged by vis
itors now as when Congress was in session. To
day Immune out of his room and addressed to the
anxiously waiting crowd a few pertinent. words,
asking that they would all be very'brief, and not
stay long. His remarks were Jcheered, and the
hint taken.
Advices from the advance of Gen. Pope's army
render it pietty certain . that both Jackson and
Ewell are in the vicinity of Gordonsville, with
about thirty thousand rebel troops, with which
they intend to make an attempt on Gen. Pope's
lines. Gen. Pope is doubtless ready, for them.
The,Wavy
The rebellion has enabled us to show the Pow
ers of the world that our naval - resources have
been almost as erroneously estimated abroad-as
our military power. Twelve manths ago we, .had
88 vessels of war,
of all kinds, about 80 of which
were steamers: We hive now 290'vesitels, all of
which are propelled by , steam, except, a few sail
ing corvettes and frigates whfchoe,an at any time
be cut down, Converted into iron-plated rams
,or
sloops of-war,,andpropelied by steam. We had
8,000 sailors'and marines a zeal. ago.. There are
now over 23,000 seamen in the Unitel States na
val service; the marine corps - 'has been doubled,
and, besides, a proportionate increase of officers
ori.the regular staff, Commanders, Lieutenants,
and minor officers, have bean easily , obtained
for nearly 200 vessels, purchased or chartered
'or war purposes. These are facts which should
make .European= nations hesitate before theistill
further tax our resources. ,

Forranss MONROE, July27."--The steamer State
of Maine arrived at Fortress Monroe this morning
at 7 'o'clock, from 'City Point, with 860 of our
Union prisoners from Itichniond. " - They were

They were misited at•liarrisan's Landing by Gen - .

to be very glad to see•them. 'One of the soldiers
said to the. General that "hp intended to, get
well, and come back to help to take Itiohmond,7
when the General remarked, "-Then you will
have to return very soon."
The rebels apologized for bringing our prison

gave, as a, reason, that., their .passenger cars
were engaged in conveying troops to General

dition, great oars having been taken of the
cleanliness, of the streets. The filthiest part of
.
the city is to 'be the tobaoco store-houses
which are now used as prisons, so many being
crowded away in them that they soon become
filthy and not fit for human beings to inhabit.
Yesterday, a man obtained a pass in Norfolk
for the pretended purpose of going to North
Carolina. He was watched by an officer, and
followed several miles out from Norfolk, when he
took a wrong road, and was steering his course
toward Richmond. The officer rode up and ar
rested him, and found upon him about two thou
sand letters, which he was about to convey to
Richmond. lie was taken back to Norfolk and
lodged in jail to await his trial. He admitted
and 'stated that he received two dollars apiece
for dortveying letters between Norfolk and Rich
mond, This will stop the avenue by which let
ters and papers have passed to and fro.

all God's mercies, and particularly the kindness
that ministered with such inexhaustible tender
ness to his last wants. His faculties of mind
remained unobscnred throughout. His. conver
sation was edifying; all fear of death was taken
away, and his end was peaceful and triumphant.
"Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord::
yea, saith the Spirit; that they may rest from.
their labors, and their works do follow. them."
DIED—In Richland County, about three miles
from Mansfield, JEREMIAH MARLOW, after a
protracted illness of many months.
He endured the painful sufferings produced by
his various ailments with unmurmuring patience,
and was sustained and cheered by a bright hope
of a glorioup immortality. He was a negro of
Virginia, and brought up near the Forks of
Wheeling, but emigrated into the vicinity of
Mansfield in 1821, and connected himself with
the Presbyterian church of that town. His un
obtrusive,-stable, and consistent deportment won
the esteem and confidence - of his fellow-members,
and in the Summer of 1840 he was elected and
set apart to the office of Ruling Elder. In all
the vicissitudes of the history of the Church, he
never failed to evince a deep and prayerful in
terest in its welfare—a strong attachment to the
doctrines of Presbyterianism; beautifully adorned
by Meekness, humility, and charity.
Around the dorriestic hearth- his excellences
shone forth with most- attractive lustre—as a
father, faithful and affectionate in training his
children ; and as a husband, of tender affection
and unremitting in his kind attentions. 'While
mourning the loss of his wise counsels and holy'
example, the members of Session cannot but ex
press.the hope that the Spirit of God Will soon
work mightily upon the hearts of those of his
offspring who are not within the ark of safety,
so that the faithfulness of Jehovah to his cove
nail may be, displayed, and the heart of his sor
rowing partner 7 —truly a mother in Israel—may
be soothed and oomforted., during the remaining
years, of her pilgrimage.
DIED—On the 13th of - June, of eoneumption,
Miss ELIZABETH ADAMS, in the 27th year of
her Age.
The deceased was the daughter of Johnston
Adams, Esq., and youngest sister of Sergeant
Samuel M. Adams, of Co. H. 62d Penn'a Reet,
who was 'wounded in the late battle at Malvern
Hill, on the let of July, and is now a prisoner
at Richmond, in the hands of the rebels. The
deceased was called to the endurance of pre
tracted suffering. which gradtially' but surely
wasted her vital energies, until the vital Spark
fled, and the spirit returned to God who gave it.
She' was remarkably amiable and kind-hearted,
and bore all her suffering with uncomplaining
patience and resignation. She was one of the
first that came out on the Lord's' side in that
glorious revival of religion with which the great
Head of the Church was pleased to visit Bethel
church during the Winter and Spring of 1857,
when seventy, persons were added to the church,
on profession of their,faith in the Son of God.
And as one of the first to enlist under. Christ's
banner, 80 among the first milled to - exchange the
armor of conflict and the scene of earthly trial,
for the crown of , unfading glory. She loved
Jesus, loved all his people, loved his Word at d
house of prayer, loved the social prayer-meeting
and the sweet songs of Zion, and has now gone
to unite her voice with the glorified throng
around his throne in heaven. As' she loved
Jesus and trusted in shim, so r she was not for
in the last moments of conflict. The Sa
viour was with her, and there•was light in the
dark valley, and. the swelling of Jordan lad no

Farewell, beloved sister! We have all wept
at thy bedside in view of the parting scene, and
at thy grave, when on`the calm and peaceful
Sabbath morning we laid thy remains in the
grave,'to await the sound of the Archangel's
trumpet, and the morning of a blessed resurrec
tion. We will not mourn thy departure. Faith
sees thee at home in glory, and soon we hoPe to
meet thee; in that land where there shall be no
sorrow nor separation forever. " Blessed are
the d.ead which die in the Lord:"

But we would extend our sympathies to that
aged father, who has seen much sorro4v in the
removal, at various times,of.the partner of his
bosom, and many of his children, and to the
surviving brother ''and sisters of her taken.
May they all trust in Christ as she did, and run
with patience the race set befare them in the
Gospel! May that grace which sustained and'
comforted her heart, be richly enjoyed by ail, of
them here', arid then soon their mourning will
be turned into joy, and their sorrows into thanks
giving forever ! G. M.
