Vrobtttriatt Nana, PITTSBURGH, MARCH 11, 1863 The War. Operations in the field are few. Of this we do not complain, so far as the army of the Potomac is concerned month ago (March 10, 184) that army was moved, causing the men to lie on the wet and cold ground, destroying the life of thousands, and disabling tens of thou- sands more. The real interest of the na- tion conspires with humanity, in demand ing protection of the soldiers till the earth is somewhat dried. Gen. Grant seems to be working hard, in the way of preparations to assail Vicks burg. It is probable that the Ihdiano Monitor gunboat recently taken from us, has been destroyed, and the Queen of the West recaptured. Gen. Hunter's army, and the iron clads at Port Royal, send no reports of progress. Muoli more which effects the war, seems now to be in progress in civil life, than in the army. Mass meetings are being held, speeches made, resolutions adopted, and leagues formed. Some of these strenuous ly oppose the measures of the Administra tion, and tend to weaken the Government. Others as strongly sustain the administra- tion policy. Others claim to be of the Union class, determined to prosecute the war with inereaded vigor, to the utter sup pression of the rebellion. Of the latter class was a monstrous meet ing in New• York on Friday evening last. Mayor Opdyke presided. The speakers were partly Republican and partly Demo cratic, partly lay and partly clerical. The resolutions are decidedly patriotic. Among the speakers was John Van Buren, who at tracted much attention. His speech was long and extensively reported: We have read it through, and been very much inter ested. It does much to brighten our hope of united effort, and so of a conserved Union. We, give an extract from the re port of Mr. Y. B.'s remarks : Hon. John Van Buren received a warm welcome, and held- the attention of the audience for over an hour. He folly en- -dorsed the object of the meeting, and ap proved of the resolutions. He went into a statement, of hiS own position in refer ence to the questions which , hive been agitated, to show that, during the late elec tion campaign for Governor, he had ex pressed his determination to sustain the President in a vigorous prosecution of the war; he adhered to that resolve, and saw nothing in the proclamation of the Presi dent, or in the sets passed by the last Con gress, to alter that determination. He ap proved of the act giving the President full control of the purse and the sword, and cited a precedent in the act passed in 1839, on the occasion of the occupation of Maine by the British, when similar power was conferred, with full approval of the Democracy and of the nation at large. There was no outcry then against " extraor dinary powers," nor should there be now, except by those who wanted to see the-re bellion prosper, and the Federal Govern ment weakened. In regard to the Procla mation he did not question its constitu tionality, but doubted its utility. "lam," said Mr. Van Buren, " for a vigorous prosecution of the war. I am for a prose cution of the war until this rebellion is wholly overthrown. I am for destroying this usurped government that has been set over several States of this Union, known as the Confederate Government; and until that is done, I hOld all propositions for peace to be entirely preposterous and ab surd." [Applause, and cries of good.] "Now, being for the war, 'I am necessarily with everybody that is for the war; and being opposed to peace, I am necessarily opposed to everybody that is for a peaoe." He reviewed the course of the leaders of the rebellion, and pronounced...their con duct to be without the shadow of excuse. Every fair-minded man in the United States would bear in mind that, up to the moment of their withdrawal from the Union, not a hair of their heads had been in jured; no right of any Southern man had been invaded. History would record that the world never heard of a rebellion against governmental authority before this, where the people who rebelled could not lay their finger upon a thing which showed that either their property, their liberty, or their laws had been in the slighest par ticular impaired. James T. Brady and Charles P. Daly, prominent Democrats, spoke in a similar strain. To find leading men of the two great parties thus cooperate is a hopeful sign. The meeting declared itself a 'Union League. Two of the resolutions were as follows : Resolved, That the conduct of the dis affected persons, claiming to be citizens of the United States, yet zealous in their at tempts to embarrass and impede the action of the legally constituted authorities, and in the utterance of treasonable sentiments, deserves, and should receive the condem nation of every loyal citizen. Resolved, That this meeting, under sol emn convictions of duty, and in a firm re liance on the justice of that Providence which guides and guards governments and peoples, does hereby . .resolve itself into a Loyal League of Union Citizens, pledged to an unconstitutional support of the Gov ernment in all its constitutional efforts to suppress the rebellion, and an uncompro mising opposition to treason in whatever form it appears. • Whom Shall we Believe.' The recklessness of political writers from the army, and 'of special" reporters from Washington, in regard to truth and false hood, is a painful evil, and perhaps incura ble. For ourselves, we put no confidence in any of them. Just take an instance of their character. The Senate's Committee on the Conduct of the War, has been taking testimony, and, among others, has examined Gen. McClellan. One " special," under date of March Ist, says : " Gen. McClellan was before the Com mittee on the Conduct of the War yester day, for two or three hours. He is a most singular witness. The Committee made very little progress with him. The in. pression left upon ihe tklids of the Commit tee is that he is either very stupid, or is very shre'A.i, lieing in the latter alternative so shrewd , Lar he affects stupidity. When an impori: , n: question is asked him, he waits for z. rig time before he answers it, sometimes 1,.i• twenty minutes, and then is very guard: ,1 in his reply. If asked an opinion, l.e i eplies Well, that depends on a good many other things; and it is difficult to give an opinion,' and so on." Another. under date of March 3d, says : " Gen. 'McClellan has concluded his evi dence before the Committee on the Con duct of the War. He submitted a gener al statement of the peninsular campaign. He expressed hiTself gratified at the cour tesy and kiudness manifested toward him by the members of the Committee, and the 'impression lie made upon them by his bear ing and general desire to facilitate the ob jects for which the Committee was created, reflected credit upon him." How contradictory I And how is it uos- Bible but that the people must be divided in sentiment, when each party reads only its own oracle, or believes nothing but what it finds there? It is designing men who produce and perpetuate alienations and divisions. The hearts of the .people are loyal; and if the truth, and the truth only, were presented to them, there would be great unanimity in the prosecution of the war; and as a consequence of unanim ity and energy, speedy and entire success might be expected. A twelve Theg.n.alish Preps on the Charleston. Tile magniloquence of the Charlestoni ans in announcing their exploit against our blockadina squadron, seems to have made but a very slight impression upon the English.. They are getting to understand secession boasting, and to make great al lowances, not suffering themselves to be driven, except when and where they desire to move. The New-York Times, in no ting the comments of some London jour nals, pays : "We are kled to see that The English Ministerial Press takes such a'sensible view of the great fiasco of Ingrahain and Beau regard in Charleston harbor, on the 31st of January. The flaming news, which so greatly excited some folks here for a few hours, cooled down considerably in its pas ssage across the sea; and John Bull cannot see that the unsuccessful attempt of a couple of rebel rams to capture a prize which lay almost within reach of their noses, constitutes a - raising of the blockade -of a port. The London Post says that 'the suspension of the blockade for a few hours [it was never suspended for an in stant,] did not terminate it, nor did it im pose upon the blockading power the neces sity, of giving fresh notice to neutral States of an intention to blockade;: and it adds, probably by authority, that the British Government will ndt require such notice. The Times takes the same view, but, bet ter, informed, says•that 4. there was not even an intermission of the blockade." The Mississippi Fleet.

Steamers Impressed into the Goveramea An order from the Government was received here to-day, ordering the seizure of all the steamers at this port, for transport service.

We'ilei many statements of Southern cruelty toward their own people, who are suspected of Unionism.. , All such are regarded as traitors; and it would seem that they are not shut up and well fed, as are some of our Seceseionists at the North, but are barbarously executed, without even a trial.

The former is yet alive, but will probably die. Peter Lewis and three of his neighbors were hunted down by 100 bloodhounds and captured. Mr. Peterson, living at the head of Bull Mountain, was shot. The sole cause of all these outrages was be cause of tho victims entertaining Union senti ments. Gen. Dodge is now feeding some 100 of these families.

CIRCINNATI March 9.—A special from Mur freesboro' to the Gazette, gives the following par ticulars of the fight at Thompson's Station. There is no evidence that our forces were sur prised. Van Dorn was known to be in full force ahead, and the brigade was slowly advancing and constantly skirmishing, when the rebels with their superior force engaged us in front and on both flanks. The 124th Ohio, which was . in the rear with the wagon train at the time of the rebel flank movement, were cut off from the main body and escaped. The 22d Wisconsin, 69th Michigan, 38d and 86th Indiana, were then completely surrounded. After exhapating their ammunition and having inflicted a severe loss on the rebels, they were forced to surrender. A flag of truce was sent to the rebel lines, to obtain information of our losses, was prohibited from approaching tho battle-field. The flag was told by rebel officers that they had buried eighty federal privates killed outright, and twenty who afterwards died of wounds. They said that front 250 to 300 federals were wounded. No Federal officers were killed, and but one wounded,Col.:l3aird, of the 85th Indiana, and he but slightly. The rebels had a force of 12,000 engaged. They lost one Colonel, several line officers, 180 killed, and a,proportionate number wounded. The ith Pennsylvania and 4th Michigan cav alry attacked Russell's rebel cavalry. at Union ville, ten miles from Murfreesboro', on Saturday, and cat them Co pieces. The rebels lost 50 killed and 130 wounded, all by sabre strokes. Two Captains; threelieutefiants, and fifty-three privates were taken prisoners, and all their camp equipage captured. NASHVILLE, March 8. - -Late news from Frank lin states that our troops fought with great valor until their ammunition was exhausted. Our loss in killed and wounded is about 300. We lose 1,000 prisoner's. The report about the rebel Indian regimentsproves to be untrue. The rebel loss, according to their own statement, is double ours in killed and wounded. We lose no officers killed. Fire in Pittsburgh.---Three,Alen . Burned to Death. • About one o'clock Monday morning,loth ' inst fire was discovered issuing from the fourth story of the Wirtz House, a hotel located on 'Penn Street, near the coiner of the canal basin, and before the flames could be arrested this building, and the Washington Hotel, adjoining it, were both so badly damaged as to be wholly untenant able. The fire caught in the fourth story of the Wirtz House, and the lodgers were mostly if not, all in their beds. The' flames spread so rapidly that three men were burned to death, while four others escaped, with the , utmost difficulty, by climbing out upon the roof, and (mewling over to the roof of the house adjoining, from' ivhich" they were helped down by the firemen and others, and, being intheirnight clothes, were furnished with proper shelter and clothing.

V., aged 19 years, 6 months, and 22 days. Mr. Huber was a citizen of Rural Valley, Armstrong County, Pa. Soon after the fearful rebellion broke 'out, in which this 'nation is en gaged, this young patriot, with the dew of youth still resting upon his brow, as well as his father, (exempt from draft,) heard their country's call in the hbur of need, and buckled on their armor and hastened to its rescue. Although father and son were in the same service, yet they belonged to different regiments ; and Louis was called to die, among strangers, with neither kind father, nor loving mother, nor affectionate brother or sister, to wipe away the cold sweat in the hour of death, or spbak a word of comfort to him when about to exchange worlds. - A short time before he was taken sick, he wrote.-to his sister, in excellent spirits, (as the tone •of his letter indicates,) but the same en velope which enclosed the last letter penned by him, also enclosed another, containing the sad news of hie death. Before he sent his last epistle, written in such glowing spirits, disease attacked him, which soon terminated in death. He was inddenly called to lay down the soldiei's armor, we fondly trust, tor the Chrietiatt victor's reward. He was attacked December 31st, with diptheria; and on the sth of January, he was called to close his eyes in death. What a warn ing to all to keep their lamps trimmed and burn ing. " For the Son of Man cometh at an hour when ye think not." When the sun was sinking in the distant West, he was laid by strange' hands in a. lonely grave far from home ; no relative near to shed a tear of sorrow over his early departure. But how sweet is the thought, that as our loved ones are committed to the silent tomb, it is not to waste, not to be scattered or lost! Every particle of redeemed dust is in safe keeping, under faithful guardianship. In the glorious resurrection morning, there will be a reunion of soul and body in that peaceful abode where the din of war is heard no more. When asked if he thought he would re cover, he said not. His last words were, "I am going up." We trust he hae realized his last words, and has " gone up" to be " forever with the Lord." 'Sleep, soldier, sleep, from sorrow free, 'And sin and strife. 'T is well with thee, 'T is well ; althoukh with many a tear We mourn the fallen volunteer." DIED—At Harrisville, Pa., February 23d, after. ,a lingering illness of, about four months, WILLIAM CURTIS, eldest son of William and Eliiabeth Fleming, in the 24th year of his age. He had'been greatly afflicted from childhood with disease in the stomach. About three years • • ago his health improved so much, Gist on the „. eleCtion of Mr. Lincoln as President, he applied for and was appointed Postmaster for this place; the duties of which office he discharged faith-, fully and creditably, though never, free from the disease which , had so long preyed upon him. During his last illness he suffered much. When the pastor, of the Presbyterian church of which his parents and single sister are members,' knew of his continued illness, he visited him, and conversed with him on the importance of preparation for, death. With deep feeling he acknowledged its importance, and promised to seek for it; Afterwards :he was often observed by his fond mother, who was mostly with him, to be earnestly engaged as if-in prayer. About a week before his death he , obtained comfort and peace. .To his pastor he said he felt he was a, great sinner, but he also felt that Jesus was an all-sufficient Saviour, and was precious to him. him. Prior to this; the `very .mention of death seemed to fill him'with terror ;'but iiow that ter ror was past. Quoting the lines from "Nevin's Practical ThoUghts "—" True it sepa rates, but it unites alio. It takes us I know from many we love, but it takes us to as many we love"—he remarked to his sister by his bedside,' `that he would like to have his pastor preach a sermon, taking that as the eubject. He was nat urally very nervons, possessed kraViter unusual iy bright mind, and. Was very intelligent. His parents and others had hoped he would be re= covered 'from his disease, and be spared for great usefulness.. But God's ways are not as ours.
