PITTSBURGH, AUGUST 9, 1892„
The War.
The war increases in interest, not from
the battles fought the last week, for there
have been none, but from the stern neces
sity, which becomes still more manifest, for
our making it 'a real war. It must be
waged intensely and relentlessly, w'3ll all
the power which Gud has given us. The
thought is awful, but we must so fight or
perish : A, foe has, wantonly assailed us,.
and he presses on with implacable vigor
`and terrible cruelty, determined to conquer.
In 'another 'column we give his oft reiter
ated declaration, that the free States are to.
become the field of battle; and his purpose
he will ,execute, .wofully execute, unless he
is repelled in the 'deadliest strife. We are
now like thepeierful but peaceful Quaker,
driven to a corner from which there is no
escape.
In theme circumstances it is sad to have
bickerings and complaints; and sadder still
to perceive their effects, in the slowness of
enlistments, and the consequent defensive
position of our armies. Twenty millions
of freemen are bearded, and buffeted, and
robbed, and threatened, by less than five
millions; the latter being backed by three
millions of slaves I Shall it long be so r.
What say you, freemen ?
It is now pretty nearly, if not quite de
termined by Government, that there must
be a resort to drafting. Well, if that is tho
necessity, let it be done; done, quickly and
effectively. -It •will tend to equalise the'
burden. It will more directly bring the
matter to bear upon some who, provokod
the war, and upon some who discourage en
listments, and upon some whose sympathies
are with the enemy. Drafting will compel
such to serve, or to pay a substitute.
Drafting, however, will not give us as
good soldiers as, the volunteer system has
afforded. They may be equal in physical
strength, native courage, and moral prin
ciple; but half their nine months' term will
be over before they lia;fe'leainad the art'of
war, and got their . minds trained to a sol
dier's fortitude. The expense of keeping
up an army will also be greater. Pre
miums and bounty will be saved ; but
greatly larger numbers must be kept on
hand to haVe, armies of equal efficiency.
The new levy must always be made long in
advance of the expiration of the period for
which a former one was called out. But
so let it be. There will be this most im
portant benefit, the people will be trained,
the people will earn their liberties, the
people will know what war costs and what
liberty is worth, and the country will
hence, at the close of the war, not be sub
ject to 's long trained, practised and har
dened soldiery, who have become a class
and feel a separate and distinct interest.
Then, let the draft come, numerous and to
be renewed'in time. Call out men enough
to do the mork.
The rebels,Trom their population, having
the slaves as laborers, can raise and keep
in the field for a time, about 700,000 effec
tive men. This number they can increase,
for a little while, to 1,000,000. But even
the 700,000 will be rapidly exhausting.
But it is folly for us to think of over
coming them, unless 'we bring out larger
armies.
Our . army is now something below half a
million, all t01d..., But , we are on the way
of thing „On ,up e
,"pf the - old regiments,
and of: foinfing many '-new ' , regiments,

sion dawn the -,Mississippi, and along the
sea coast of SoUtly Carolina, Georgia, and
Florida. But do not attempt too...much.
Rather be greatly short of what might be
possible, than attempt to take imoie than
can be fully held.
If the rebel energies ihould intimate
the need of another draft, make it in time
—in the FRII, in early Winter, or early
Spring. By May-Day, the work should be.
and could be, so nearly done, that :no fur
ther drafting would be needful. The three
years' men could finish it, effectively.
If foreign intervention should take
place, longer work, and still more terrible
will be needed. We pray that`it may not.
But' to pratin , faith, we must use' God's
appointed means of success.
--Since the above was written, a draft
for three hundred thousand men, to serve
for nine months, has been ordered by Gov
ernment.
Confiscation.
The President, on. the :25th of July, is
sued a_Proolatnation, under the Confisea
tion Aot of Congress. This gives full of
feet, after sixty days from that date; tha
is, after the 24th of September,.to the fol
lowing, Section of that Act:
" SEC.. 6, ,And be it further enacted,
That if any person within any State or
Territory Of the United States, other than
those named_ as, aforesaid, after tbe passage
of this act, being. engaged in armed rebel
lion against the Government of the United
States, or aiding or abetting such rebellion,
shall not, within sixty days after public
warning and proclamation duly given and
made by the President of the United
States, cease to aid, countenance, and abet
such rebellion, and return to his allegisuce
to the United States, all the estate
,and
property, moneys, stocks and credits of
such person, shall be liable to seizure, as
aforesaid, and it shall be the duty of the
President to seize and use them as afore-
said, I.r the proceedi ltheroof And all
sales, !ransfers or conveyances of any such
propel y, after the expiration th,e,said
sixty '.'ays from the date of such Warning
and pi ochunation ; shall be null and void ;
and it shall be a sufficient bar to any suit
brought by such person for the possession
or the use of such property, or any of It,
to allege.and prove- that 'he is one of the
Persons described in this section."
From September 24th, then it will be,
not optional with the President, but his.
duty to seize and 'confiscate to the use of
the United States, all , the property speci
fied. From that date rebels lose all legal
claim to their profierty. The Courts pan
not,protect them in its enjoyment; it be-
Comes absolutely forfeit to the Govern
ment, and incapable of being transferred
to other owners.
The following applies to`the confiscation
of staves e: ;-
ca Sac. 9. And be it further enacted,
That all slaves of persons who shall here
after be engage .in rebellion: against the
Government of the United States, or who
shall in any way give aid or comfort there
to, escaping from such persons and taking
refuge within the lines of the army, and
all slaves captured from such persons or
deserted by them and coming under the
control (4: i , tlle Governmenl of the tallied
States, and all slaves Of such persons found
on (or) being within , any place occupied
by rebel forces and afterward occupied by
the forces of, the United States, shall ,be
deemed captives of war,, and• shall be: for
ever free of their servitude and not again
held as slaves."
• To put this section•in force, required no
Proclamation. It took effect, as law, im
mediately. Every slave now belonging to
a rebel master, is entitled to his freedom.
Hence ns our armies move they carry free
dom with them. Not, exactly universal
emancipation, but very nearly so, for Al
nost every slave owner in the Seceded
States, is concerned -in the rebellion.
Hence to move ; the, United States lag
South, is to advance liberty. Let our , peo
ple arise in their might, and cause it to ad
vance; and never, never, permit a retreat.
0 that our young men and our strong men,
would turn out rapidly,. and together, and
in adequate numbers to make a short work
and a sure
,work
-of the Our gener
als will do" it, under a kind Providence,
without' delay or failure, if the country
will afford the means. And the Govern
ment is waked up—perhaps we should say,
is awaking. It needs still some pressure.
It needs to be assured of a full snstenta-
tion. Have we trot patiiiitisin to lay aside
all bickerings, and prejtidiees, and party
preferences, and conquer a peace?

Monday, August 4.
Ever since the firing upon our shipping at the
mailboat landing by the enemy's batteries, our
troops have occupied the opposite shore.
Yesterday a reconnoissance was made from
that point beck into the country to within four

gan regiment. Capts. Cutten and Bowen, of Mo-
Clellan's Staff, accompanied them. At Cox';)
Mills, five miles from the river, they encountered
the 13th Virginia, Cavalry, drawn up in line.
Our men charged on them, when they broke and
run. We drove them to their encampment at
Sycamore Church, two and one-half miles far
ther, Where they again formed, but were inglori
ously put to flight, leaving behind all their tents,
camp equippa.ge and commissary stores, which
our troops gathered together and burnt.
The rebels had two horses killed and six men
wounded, and two taken prisoners.. We lost only
one horse. After scouring the country a short
distance further, they returned to the river.
There is no further evidence of the rebel gun
boats in thetiver, this side of Fort Darling. In
formation received here goes to show that the
new Merrimac will not be ready for three weeks
yet.
Aug. fo,—The Richmond papers of the 2d, in
giving an account of the night engagement op
posite the mailboat landing, acknowledge that
one man was killed and six wounded. •
A large force of:infantry, cavalry and artillery
left camp last night. for Malvern Hill. No report

Capture Dr. Breckinridge.
The Princeton (N. J.,) Standard has a letter
from a niece of Rev. Dr. R. J. ..Breckinridge, of
Kentucky, dated at Lexington, Ky., July 28,
1862. The Standard introduces it as follows:
Dr. Breckinridge was at his country seat,'
about seven miles from. Lexington; and as Mor
gan's. cavalry were expected to make, a raid on
Lexington, Dr. B. urged his female friends who
were then there, to go out to his pince for security;
They did so. One day while Dr. B. had gone to
town; expecting to return at six o'elock in the -
evening, a company of mounted Texan Rangers,
appeared at his residence and planted ,a guard
around it, several armed men having made re
peated inquiries as to the hmir when Dr. B. was
expected to return from town. Several. efforts
were made by the family_to apprise Dr. B. of the
danger that awaited his return, but the messen
gers Were all intercepted by the pickets, except
.one, , who, by making a wide circuit,' succeeded
in reaching the road on which Dr. B. was re
turning, just in time to prevent, him from riding
into the, lines of the blood-thirsty robbers.
Providence thus delivered this valuable Union
man; whose services have been's() eminently use
ful to the National cause in Kentucky and else
where, from the violent hands of his enemies and
the enemies of, his country, who sought to murder
him, or, at leaSt, to drag him into a captivity
worse than death. Let God be praised - for this
deliverance. .

steamer Brooklyn. below Vicksburg, after de
scribing the attack on the ram Arkanza,T, says :
We have the river, but must have troops to hold
it. The September rains will soon be upon us,

'Walt Der..turuasy,` Washington, July 61.=-The
absence - of •(Altars and - prliates from day
under various pretexts while receiving pay at
great expense and burthen to the Government,
makes it, necessary for effioient measures to be
ten to enforce 'their return to duty, or that,
their places be supplied by those' who will not
take pay while.rendering no service. This evil,
moreover, tends greatly to discourage the im
pulse of those who would contribute to the sup
port of families of 'faithful soldiers. It is, there
foli, ordered by the:President :
Ist. That on Monday, the 11th• day of August,
all leaves of absence and furloughs' by whomso

may be awarded, unless their absence is 'occa
sioned by lawful cause:
---2 d. The only eiettle:allowed for the absence
of officers or privates from duty after the nth' of
August, are—first, the order or leave of the War
Department; second, disabilities from wounds
-received in service ; third, disability from dis
ease that renders the party unfit for military
duty; but any officer or private whose health
permits him to visit watering places, or places of
amusement, or make social visits, or walk
about town, city or neighborhood in which he may
be, will be considered fit for military duty, and
as evading duty by absence from' his command
or ranks. .
3d. On Monday the 18th,day of August, at
10 o!olook A. M., each regiment-and corps shall
be mustered. , Sim, abaentos,, will be marked iu
three lists, and the same be male within forty
eight hours after muster. One copy shall be
sent to the Adjutant-general of the Army, one
to the Commander of the Corps, the third to he
retained, and all officers and privates, fit for
duty, absent at that time shall be regarded as
absent without cause; their pay will be stopped,
and they will be dismissed from service or treat
ed as deserters, unless restored ; and no officer
shall be restored to his rank unless by judgment
of a Court of Inquiry, to be approved-by the
President, he shall establish that his absence was
with good cause.
4th. Commanders of corps, divisions, brigades,
regiments and detached posts shall strictly en
join,, enforce and muster, as aforesaid. Any offi
cer failing in duties herein-mentioned will be
deemed guilty of gross neglect of duty, and be

The 2 1 iSzes in' its editorial to-day- says - We
must clo•the press of New-York the justice to say
that so far as we have it, it treats the disasters
of the Federals with sufficient fairness. Though
to a certain extent echoing the mendacious bul
letins of 'the Goveimmerit and the pompous ad
dresses of Gen. M'Clellan, it is still independent
enough and honest enough to let the. country
know the whole truth. While Falstaffs and Bobadil
deseribe their wonderful exploits,. the -newspa
per correspondents littidltly explain matters in, a
manner that has filled the Northern cities with
consternation.
The Portuguese harvest is spoiled, and it is
reported_ that the Portuguese ports, open
for the admission of, grain in September. ,
The British Parliament will be prorokued on
the 6th of August. "
The London Times, editorially, contends' that
the defeat , of hrClellan has changed:everything
beyond debate. The North, who are no ,fools,
are receiving the. conviction that such people
as the Confederates eau never be subjugated.
Volunteering' is . making too slow progress for
that. •
The. Army and /Roy Gazette is of the opinion
that M'Clepa,n is now, in a better position for
offensive operations against Richmond than ever
before.

Mr. De_Lacy Evans did.:not think that there

Sir Cornviall Lewis thought that, looking to
'the position.• of the coutest.betireen the North and"

treated by the'American Government, there was
no immediate probability of .a rupture of pacific

TO HIS MOTHER
How slowly, how gently, we bore him to rest,
How tenderly placed the clods on his breast ;
How sadly we wept. hen under the sod
We had placed his cold body, (for his spirit's
with God.)
Yet as we mourn'd, Morcresigned we beeame, •
For we thought of ‘! our brother," in his
heavenly home ;
Set free from his labors, his sorrow, and care—
Of his Calm, peaceful sleep, which soon we may
share. •
We thought of his parents, brothers, sisters, and
Of the groves where often , in sport .we

Of the old church choir, wherein his rieh voice
Once mingled with ours in songs of Tejoiae. ,
We thought of his friends, as we turned away
To leave him, so dear, to crumble in clay ;
To vent,our deep sorrow in fast flowing tears,
And think, ofhim more whom we lovedfor years
Then we thought bf a tale which he sadly told,
Of a mtiOnlight, with stars 'of 'gold,'
When tenderly gazing on his ehildhood ; t home—
Feeling loathe to leave it, abroad to roam- 7 - '7
That a: cruel cloud came sweeping by, .„
Enshrouding •it from his anxious eye ;
Darker and darker the heavens still grew,
Till the stars—his favorites—were hidden from

Toward the woods, where he knelt to pray- 77

And bring me again to my mother's side."
Ba,d omen, indeed, it has proven to all,
But the bravest of soldiers we know must fall/
And among them he who our burdens would
bear—
For our joy and our sorrow together he 'd share
Ile sunk, to sleep 'neath the Southern skies, Tv
Where now, undisturbed, his body lies;
He wished for his mother with his latest, breath;
Yet. gladly embraced the approach of death..

We will think of him now as one of the blest,
Whom, his Saviour has galled to be at rest;
We will think of him , now as gone from our love,
