PORTLAND DAILY PRESS. V0L- L PORTLAND, ME., SATURDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 0, 1802. N0 66ur u-iinow th.it tl«;a *a The “everlasting negro” has been the cause of division and strife, in church and State, ever since he began to be taken by force from his native land, and brought to these shores as a slave. Like the home of Pharoah, when he had taken Abram’s wife,we have been “plagued with great plagues !>ecause of them.” And this is a sufficient apology, if any is needed,for asking the people to enquire—not as philan thropists—but as American citizens, who love their country, and desire to save it,—What is the negro race to do? Or what will the people of this country, of other races do with them WILL THEY REMAIN IN THIS COUNTRY? This question is placed before that of their freedom, because there arc some who would make their freedom depend upon their coloni zation. Let it be met fairly. Let not the people be persuaded to liberate them, with the expectation they will be colonized, in Central America, or elsewhere, if such a scheme must fail. Their/orrfb/e expatriation against their con sent, is out of the question. As slaves it would not be done. As freemen it co«M not lie done, No one advocates such a plan. The Christian world would rise up against it. So that noth ing but voluntary emigration is thought of. The recommendation of the President, and the acts of Congress, provide for their coloniza tion only “only with their own consent” No other class of [ample have such strong local attachments as the negroes. As much as they desire freedom,they generally shrink from seeking it by flight The associations that sur round them often have a stronger hold upon them than do free homes upon others. Their knowl edge is necessarily of a limited and local kind. They are therefore altogether out of the reach of that class of influences that have caused great emigrations, like that from Ireland. No case can lie found in modern history, where a whole race have voluntarily emigrated from the land of their birth, even under the most pressing motives of fear or hope. IIow' then can a [ample who have never been taught to act all at for themselves, who know so little of each other,so little of the world.and so little of the responsibilities of self-control, be ex peeled to unite together in seeking another Country. Are they to lie influenced by others and per suaded to go? Let us remember that those who will have the greatest influence over them, will not advise them to go. Frederick Doug lass, and others like him, arc strongly opposed to emigration. The free negoes, North and South, have their homes, their churches, and other local attractions dear to them. In Charleston they own $1,501,870 worth of prop erty; In Philadelphia nearly as much. The idea that they can be persuaded to give up ev erything, and seek new homes, in some far off wilderness, just to gratify men who are preju diced against them, is altogether visionary. There may be a colony founded in Central America. Large numbers may be induced to go there,—though that is doubtful. But ad mit it; and then reflect that if we could per suade titty thousand to go every year,the num ber remaining here would still be increasing, instead of diminishing, and we may judge whether the whole project is not utterly im practicable. We may as well make up our minds, first as last, that the negroes will remain in this country If we consider it an evil, it is one we have brought upon ourselves. And as we cannot escape it, the only wise course is to see if we cannot change it into a blessing. There are those who fear that, if liberated, they would overrun the North. But all such fears are idle. Emancipation would at ouce stop all emigration to the North. The condi tion of tlie free negro is bad enough here; but it is far worse in the slave Suites. And yet there are many more free negroes there, than in the North. They regard the South as their home. The climate is more congenial to them, Uian ours. And they will all lie wanted there, to develop the wonderful resources that free dom would quickly call into life,—resources that have so long been dormant under the blighting curse of slavery. They are acclim ated. They can endure labor under a South ern sun. The planters of the British West Indies, who are sending over to China for lul> orers, would lie e is a unit,—and there is not a government that would risk itself in opposi tion to it. The words of the Journal des lie hats, one of the most influential presses in France, or in Europe, are prophetic as w ell as admonitory.— ‘•Only one obstacle presented itself before the South, when she asked for recognition,— the violence of pulilie opinion against slarery. There is the lesson I hat tee strongly recommend to the attention of the North. On the very day that the North should forsake that holy cause, wherein lies at the same time her hon or, and her principal element of strength, the public opinion of Europe would become indif ferent, and would make no further opposition to the acknowledgement of the South. “A decisive step must be made towards the enfranchisement of slaves; blood must not have been shed in vain; that war must be a glorious couquest of civilization, and not a useless butchery. “The Republican party has saved the Union. Its victories give it strength enough to perse vere in the path whose entrance was marked by the election of Lincoln, and whose rational end is the defeat of the partisans of slavery in the North, and the proclamation of the princi ple of freedom for all men on the American soil.” Let these words of wisdom be pondered well by every patriot! They were written several months ago, by one of the truest of our friends iii Europe. He sees that emancipation is the only safe policy, there, as here. The South, as a last resort, may offer it, as the price of re cognition. It cannot be done by us after in tervention lias been commenced. It cannot be done, after ours is exhausted in hopeless struggles. What would now be a living (low er, will then be but au idle threat. The right blow, struck too late, is wasted iu empty air. It is the [iart of men to shape, "the logic of events''—not to wait for it. Slavery may*be destroyed by such a waiting—Imt we shall not be saced by it, l’haraoh thus waited, until the first born was dead in every house; and even then he “revoked” a reluctant consent, and the song of deliverance could not lie sung, until it echoed over his slaughtered hosts. Is a like fate in store for us Must the obelisk of Free dom stand upon a nations grave? It is for us to answer. Providence has placed our desti ny in our own hands. W. GRAND TRUNK RAHWAY.

IIALL, ang21dtd .Secretary of State. Aa Attack on the President. The Advertiser has for some little time been exceedingly afraid that somebody would Uriel fault with our President, and like the pugna cius individual who desired some one to “step on the tail of his coat,” it hits been “spoiling for a light.” But yesterday morning it changed its tune, and pitches into the Chief Magistrate as follows: x lie armies in anu amuim me capital arc again all under the command of Gen. McClel lan, and we hope and lieliove that the best re sults will immediately follow. In union there Is strength. The division of the army, and placing it under different and Incompetent offi cers, was the mistake of the war. Had Me Clellan's plans not been iuterlered with, we have no doubt he would have been in Rich mond in season to celebrate the 4th of July. The President having distinctly declared himself responsible for the measures adopted by his administration, an attack upon that ad ministration is an attack upon the President. If the mistake was made as alleged liy the Advertiser, the mistake was made by the Pres ident, and admitting its truth, which wc do not, it Is in bad taste to take this time to And fault. If ‘‘McClellan plans’’ have been inter fered with, the President is solely responsible, and this coarse, unmanly, backhanded thrust at ills capability and integrity by the Adverti ser, was hardly to have been cxp-ctcd alter its loud professions, but is a fair specimen of the “splendid summersaults” it frequently turns. No Public Chucuh. The Republican City Committee, taking into view the existing state of public- affairs, concluded to omit the usual caucus which lias heretofore been held on the Saturday evening pn-ceeding our annual State election. They also decided that the nominations of candi dates for Representatives should Is- announc ed in the pap-rs of Saturday, which has not been usual heretofore. It was supposed that the Democratic party would not call a public caucus if tin- Republi cans did not. But wc learn that as soon as they found out that no Republican caucus was to be held, they engaged the City Hall for Saturday evening, and intend holding a meet ing, where, under the guise of “friendship for the Union,” they will endeavor to make some proselytes to the Bradbury ticket. The thing wont work. 23p“The following is the ticket to be voted for on Monday next in Portland: For Goecrnoi—Abner Coburn. For Uejjresentatice to Congress—John X. Goodwin. For Senators—Samuel E.

Letter from Washington. The exotlue of xurgtowt awl nvrscn—their failure to rent It their dertinutioll the Maine liattericx—the wounded—the noble women of II 'atthington—tm, Haul s. Kihtohs Phkss:—The long expected hour has at last arrived, when, in deadly conflict, tlio two contending armies in Virginia meet. The cannonading was distinctly heard in this city, and you may imagine the condition of the nervous system, under such circumstances. On Saturday last, about noon, a request came from the War Department for all who could, would volunteer as nurses and surgeons, to proceed at once to the relief of the wounded on the battle-field. There was hurrying to and fro; wildness was depicted upon many a countenance, this l»eing the first reliable intel alde intelligence thrown out the public that a battle was going on. It was stated from the Department, that eight or ten thousand of our fellow countrymen were lying upon the field wounded, and that ample means of conveyance would be furnished by the Government with all possible haste. An order was also issued, directing the organization of the volunteers into “cor|>s,” with a surgeon at their head, and that each one would provide themselves with lint and cloths for bandages, a water pail ami dipper, a liottle of brandy, and two or three days’ rations. There was a general response to this call; and for the purpose of showing you the grounds of complaint which issued from the lips of all u)>on their return, 1 pro pose to give you a short account of the trip. A train of cars was advertised to leave Ma ryland Avenue at 5 o'clock precisely, at which time thousands of people had assembled, many of whom were armed and equipped as the or der directed. Two hours were spent, and no signs of the train moving; hundreds left in disgust. At about 9 o'clock the train started, with about a thousand people packed in cattle cars, which had but a short time been made va cant, from the appearance of the floor, with an imbecile engine to draw Iff The volunteers soon found themselves destined to spend the night on the road, as, from the inability of the engine to draw the train up the grades, ex cept by piecemeals, three or four cars nt a time, they got over the road at the rate of not one mile per hour, only reaching Fairfax sta tion at 8 o'clock in the morning. But very T Im.mnn ,..’,11 «l,n» experience, parked, as they were, in unventil ated cars, without seats, or even standing room, unless it is effaced hy subsequent disagreeables which they may encounter. The rain was pouring, as the crowd emerged from the cars at Fairfax Station, and another damper fell up on them in the infonuation that they could not reach the hattle-lleld without travelling some fourteen or fifteen miles, ria the way of Centreville, through the rain and Virginia mod, the like of which I never saw. Some of the party, a little more plucky than others, at tempted to go on, hut were turned hack by the pickets. In this dilemma, thcyltelegraphed to Washington for orders, and their reply inti mated that they had better come bark, which they did, and as the grade was more favorable, they were not quite so long getting back to Alexandria. When they got hark to Alexan dria another trouble awaited them, as there were »a arrangements for them to get up to Washington. They finally managed to reach this city, an their own hook. Sunday evening, tired, hungry,and sleepy. Thus ended the ex pedition of nurses and surgeons into Virginia. Three or four hundred surgeons arrived from Baltimore and Philadelphia, having liecn tele graphed for, but had proceeded only to Alex andria. when they wens ^obliged to come hack. Your humble correspondent was one of the party that started, hut didn't get there. All Is confusion here now, in regard to the killed and wounded. Dp to to-day I cannot learn that any of our Maine troops were in the engagements of Friday and Saturday, except two or three batteries, and they were badly rut up. The 5th Maine Battery lost four guns, and a niimlier of men. Lieut. Twltchel! is said to be killed. Poor fellow! I suppose this to lie the one whose manly, soldier-like forii we used to see so often in our streets in IV tland. lie has died in a noble cause. The 2d Maine Battery also suffered much, losing two or more guns. It is said they stood their ground no bly, and rendered most efficient service. The 2d Maine Regiment is said to lie badly cut up, but we can get nothing definite yet to lie re lied upon. Many more of our Maine troops are now on the field, having been inarched, with their several Divisions, to reinforce Pope. Much more fighting is expected, but confi dence is expressed of the result. The wounded are arriving hereby hundreds most every hour, and are taken to the Hospi tals. and to tile houses of citizens here, who have kindly thrown them open to receive them. The most of them seem to lie wounded in the anil or hand, many of them, however, are very severely wounded and brought here only to die. Vvitpvlltinrv miauililn umII l>o comfort and relief in this city. The noble hearted women of Washington, were outcome two hundred strong, on the avenue, when the trains arrived, with their baskets full of fixxi and luxuries of all descriptions, for these sons, husbands and fathers who had been mangled upon the battle field. Many incidents of inter est might lx- cited here, but I forbear as my communication is too long already, Gen. Banks is praised by every ixxly. And it is distinctly understiMxl that so tongas Hook er, Sige), ami Heintzleman are in the field they will light. Washington is safe beyond a question. None of the new levy of troops from Maine, have been sent forward to the battle field. “Capitoi..” [From our Regular Correspondent.] Letter from the State Capital.

The following account of the battle of Chan tilly, Va., three miles in the rear of Center ville, fought on Monday night last, and in which (lens. Kearney and Stevens fell, is from the New York Tribune’s correspondent: Gun Iteno’s Division had been posted during the day, to observe the rebel movements. The approach of the enemy was ascertained in the afternoon, and Gcu Kearney w as ordered to advance to Iteno’s support. The enemy were attempting to turn our right flank, and in or der to move more rapidly had left their artille ry behind them, aml.were advancing over the Helds. Their movement threatened both flank and rear, and, if successful, would probably have placed them at Fairfax Court House, and once more broken Hope’s eominuniction with Wash ington, They attaekrd Gen Keno about 5 o'clock in the afternoon. The engagement be tween him and the rebels continued for about an hour before the arrival ofourreinforceincnts Gen Keno had posted his troops with his right resting against a wood. Gen Stevens’s division was upon the lelt, Keno himself hold ing the right- After the line of battle was formed, the enemy attempted lo turn Gen. Hello’s left flank. Gen. Stevens, to antihipate and prevent this movement, advanced at the head of his division to the attack. The enemy were posted in a corn field, and on the further side of it partially protected by the woods. In the centre of the Held was a ravine, into which Gen. Stevens advonccd. As he was leading his column, some distance lie fore reaching the enemy's line, lie was shot dead by a biilletthrough tile head. His troops disheartened by his loss, and undoubtedly out nitmbercd, fell back in considerable disorder. Gen. Keno found liimselfat this period with out any support upon his left, w ith his troops mostly out of ammunition, while the enemy were approaching in heavy force upon the left flank, and threatening to turn his position and cut his forces in two. It wits at this juncture that Gen Kearney arrived upon the field. The night was very dark, the rain falling very heavily, with a ter rible storm of thunder and lightning. It was nearly impossible to discover at once the ex act position of the enemy. On the exposed left flank of Gen Reno they were supposed to be advancing, and Gon. Kearney detaching one brigade to the left, rode forward to make a reconnoissance in person. He wrs told that there were no troops of ours in front of the position which Gen. Stev ens had hold, and that through the Gap the rebels were rapidly advancing; lint, disre garding or dislielieving the information, went forward, accompanied oniy by an orderly, and coming suddenly upon the rebel advance, was shot dead. it: __t_i_i_ _sitinii, and even threatened to turn his own left flank. Gen. Kobiuson’s brigade, w ith Grahum's battery, 1st I’nited States, was ordered to the left. Gen Blrney's brigade constituted the reserve, also strengthened by Randolph's battery, which opened on the enemy with vigor and effect. Gen. Birney formed his line of battle in front and'on the centre witli his own brigade, con sisting of seven regiments. A musketry tire was opened on both sides, and continued with great sharpness for perhaps half an hour. The enemy’s line Ix'ing uiisiistained by artillery, was greatly shaken by the cannonade from our side, and by the heaviness of the infantry Bre. Gen. Birney. as soon as he perceived indi cations of the enemy's unsteadiness in his front, ordered the 40th—known a« the Mozart Regiment—and 1st New York, both command ed by Col. Egan, and the Scott Life Guards— SStli New York—Col. Ward, to advance in a bayonet charge. These three regiments moved across the cornfield, down theravine. and lip the opposite slope, with the greatest gallantry and deter mination. and almost instantly broke the rebel line and put them to flight. They were pur sued by the tire of our artilMy, but owing to the darkness and the storm, pursuit by infant ry for any distance was impossible. Our troops occupied tile position from which the enemy had been driven, Gen. Berry's re serve brigade holding tile ground all night.. Our ilead were buried, and the wounded car ried off the ground. Some prisoners wen- ta ken from the enemy. Among them were the Adjutant General of Gen. Jones,and Ids Chief of Ordnance. Our loss in killed and wounded in Gen. Ilir. uey's command was about 200. The enemy’s forces consisted of parts of the divisions of Gens. Jackson, Ewell and Hill, iiutnlx-ring Irom 10,000 to 12,000. The battle was fought upon our side after Kearney's arrival entirely by Blrney’s brigade. Gen. Birney’s conduct was distinguished by great skill and galantry. With less than 3000 trixips he restored the fortunes of a light in which greater numbers on our side had already been worsted, and then by his admirable dispo sition of Ids troops, and their steadiness and courage, drove three times his own strength Horn the Held and held it the night. The lolst New York was exposed during Hie tight, and lost heavily in killed and woun ded.

J. N. War Meeting in indlinm. The citizens of Windham, held a spirited war meeting on Thursday afternoon, in their Town Hall. The people turned out in large numbers,—men and women, and filled flic Hall. The leading men of the town were pres ent, and showed by their interest’and zeal that their love for their country has suffered no abatement in these trying times. The meeting was addressed by Messrs. George E. Emery, Bcnj. Kingsbury and Charles Holden, Esqs., of this city, anil Dr. Parsons of Windham. The speeches were patriotic and effective, and were received with much favor. The afternoon was occupied in this good work The Windham Band was in attendance and much hel|>cd the good feeling by its strains of martial music. Windham has done well in turning out its soldiers. The first quota is full, nnd but six teen were wanted for the second—which the fathers of the town had no doubt would lie readily obtained before this week is out. There will be no need of a draft among the patriotic sons of old Windham. Jameson Caucus.—The Jameson Demo crats of tills city, held a caucus last evening in the “Senate Chamber.” Lewis Pierce, Esq., was Chairman, and F. B. Eveleth, Secretary. A committee appointed for the purpose re ported the following nominations, which were accepted: Senators.—Phinehas Barnes,Portland; Wm. Buxton, North Yarmouth; George W. Plum mer, New Gloucester; H. J. Swasey,Standish. County Treasurer.—II. D. McLellan, Gor ham. County Commissioner.— George Perley, Gray. County Attorney.—James T. McCobh, Port land. Sheriff.—Samuel Haskell, Cape Elizabeth. Register of Deeds.—Miss Harriet K. K. Irish, Gorham. RejtresenUMtes.—Charles E. Barrett, Jacob McLellan, harles U. Stuart, Harris C. Barnes. George F. Emery, Esq., was reported as the candidate for Congress, but the report was re iected. Another Committee was then appointed, a majority of whom reported the name of Lieut. Col. Charles B. Merrill for Congress. A mi nority report was made that it was inexpedient to make any nomination. After some discus sion the majority report was accepted by a vote of 5 to 4. The resolutions passed at the Penobscot County Union Convention were adopted. A City Committee of one from each Ward was chosen and the meeting adjourned. fff We have inadvertantly alluded to Hon. Biou Bradbury as a member of the last State senate. He was a member of the House, but lii» former services in the Senate were so fa miliar to us as to betray us into a slip of the pen.—[Argus. This is “hopping out of the frying pan into the lire," with a vengenee! We should like to have the editor of the Argus tell us the year that Bion Bradbury was in the State Senate Washington County has not been very apt to do that thing. And yet the Argus is “so familiar w ith his former tenicet in the State Senate,” that they thought he was there last year! Man, Conscience! This will do to put along side of the Argus’ insertion of the nomination of Joseph E. Smith for Cogrcss in the 3d District, when A. P. Gould was the luckf man! The fact is, Bion B is alnrnt as near to, the Governorship, as he has been to the State Senate in former times—and that is so far off, that nobody “can sue it,” Tho rot© on Mon day will leave B. B. very far up the Source of the Magalloway. Tint Kili.eh an-ii Wocihiko.—The New York Herald publishes a list of killed and wounded in the late battles, from which we collect the following Maine names: U. A. Brown, 2d reg., hip; II. II. Blackwell, F, 2d; J, W. Curtis. 1,2d; II. C. Carter, E,3d; M. Doheny, 2d, thigh; W. A. Darliff. 4th, leg; C. Ellis, G, 10th: A. Fenton, 2d, throat; S. Goddard, C, 2d, throat; Geo.

Hose. 4th,; Frank Smith, 2d; S. G. Tenney, 2d, leg; J. K. Veazie, 2d, ankle; M. Wilson, 2d, ankle. Ten thousand five hundred sick and wound ed soldiers have arrived in Philadelphia. A mong he names we notice those of B. Rich ards, 5th; N. K. Roberts, Cavalry; E. Ripley, 5th; O. Morgan, 4th.

Nabkow Escape.—Lieut. Thomas J. Lit tle of the 13th Massachusetts regiment, son of Win. I). Little, Esq., of this city, received three distinct wounds in the late liattle near Bull Hun. The first was a gunshot wound in the leg, aliout four inches above the ankle, which badly bruised the bone, without break ing it The second was a shot wound in the right hand, lielow the small finger. At first it was thought it would have to lie amputated, but the surgeon saved it. The third wound was from a minie ball, which broke the lower jaw and took out one tooth. This is the worst wound, and it will take some time for it to heal. Mr. McLellun, 1st Assistant Post Master General, at whose residence in Washington Lieut. Little is, writes that he is getting along comfortably. He is fed witb a spoon and is not ullowcd to talk. It is thought lie may be able to return home in ten days. Navai. Recruits.—We stated yesterday that persons who shipp in the navy are now reckoned ns part of the quota of the towns where they belong. Rut in order that men enlisting in the navy should be so allowed, it is necessary to get an order from the Adju tant General of the State. When the men have passed the examination of the surgeon, and have been received on board tile ship, the receiving officer at this place will give a cer tificate to that effect, and upon its lieing pre sented at the Adjutant General’s office, towns will l»e credited with the men so enlisted. The recruiting service for the navy is going on well at the office No. So Commercial street. About 100 men enlisted in the mouth of Au gust. Seventeen have enlisted since the 1st of September, and men are presenting themselves daily. Rumored Official Changes,—Our Bos ton exchanges yesterday,announced that a rc l>ort reached that city Thursday evening, by teiegrapli to the Merchant's Reading Room, to the effect that Mr. Stanton had resigned, and had been succeeded by Gen. Ilailcck, and also that Gen. McClellan bad lieen appointed Com uiandcr-in-Chief of the armies of the United States. Up to the hour of writing (last even ing). we had received no continuation of the report, and until it is certain, we forbear com ment. It may be that our regular dispatches may confirm the report, but we are inclined to doubt the truth of the report so tar :is Mr. Stanton is concerned. r?"* Gov. Washburn arrived in town Timre- day evening, on Ins return from Providence, R. L.aiul lelt for Augusta at one o’clock P. M. yesterday. ORIGINAL AND SELECTED. “jp1” The dally papers of Bangor, are still slapping each other lor appropriating items without credit. That is a characteristic trait. The Whig yesterday, had several belonging to us, which it had appropriated as its own. Stacie Accident.—We are informed that as the BuckHcld stage drove up to the depot at Mechanic Falls, on Thursday, the horses took fright from a moving train, turned “short round,” breaking the pole, ran across the bridge, upset the coach and seriously injured the passengers. One ol the horses was badly injured. The British Government have award ed to (.’apt. E. U. Sleeper of the Ship “Pyra mid” of Thomaston Maine, a Telescope to be forwarded to him through tlie Government at Washington, in acknowledgment of his gener ous services in having recued at sea the Mas ter and Crew of the British Barque “Alina” of Trinidad, and conveying them to Monte video. The Bodt of Coe. Fessenden.—The Washington correspondent of the New York World, under date of the 3d, says: “Through the influence of Senator Fessen den, a Hag of truce was seut out to-day for the purpose of recovering the body of his son, Col. Fessenden, who was buried near Bull Ktm. At night fall no answer had been re ceived, and it is probable that the mission was successful.” We give place to a communication from John Neal, Esq., in relation to the Fopharn Celebration, without pretending to know a word of the subject matter of his complaints, except at secoud hand. We were there, and after a long struggle with the hungry crowd, we succeeded in getting on the outside of a lib eral supply of the Ji*h cliqjvder, which was very fair. The clam chowder is w hat Mr. N. partic larly complains of. We think the Committee of Arrangements were quite as much dissatis fied as is our correspondent. Mr. Neal’s arti cle was suppressed in the Advertiser after be ing put in type, and for this reason,by request, we give it an assertion. The Hkiht .Spntrr.—Among the volunteers in Wilton to fill up the quota ol niue month's troops, is Major M. II. Wood. inajiji wmi mauu mo apt; iiuiii a/iah in the spring of '61, anc volunteered as a pri vate in an Ohio regiment. He was in nearly all the guerrilla tights throughout the cam paign in Western Virginia, and was three times promoted for gallant conduct. On June of tile present year, he resigned his position as Major of the Nth Virginia regiment, on ac count of ill health, and came to his father's in Wilton. Having regained his health, he was the first man to volunteer to liil the quota of Wilton. We hope the officer making power of this State will take pains to look him tip. War Mf.ktino in Saco.—The loyal people of Saeo are alive to their duty in this hour of our country's trial anil |teril. Frequent meet ing are held, and recruits are lieing secured with most gratifying despatch. On Thursday evening last the spacious town Hall was crowd ed with ladies and gentlemen, who listened with profound attention for over an hour to speeches from Mr. Libby, Principal of the Academy in that place, and J.

Rebel N'a vr.—We learn that a Civil En gineer, tSlonglng in this city, w ho has recently returned from Europe, says there are several war vessels building in England, which, it is generally understood, arc for the use of the Confederate States. Our Government should be on the lookout for them. Cy“Mr. Seth B. Hersey, of the firm of Woodman, True A Co, yesterday, presented George P. Gross, a young man who lias been a clerk in that establishment, hut who has re cently enlisted in Co. A, Portland battalion, with a beautiful six shooter, of the manufac ture of Smith A Wesson. Mr. Gross is a son of Sew all Gross of New Gloucester. Pickled onions, cucumbers, Ac., Ac., are highly recommended by the Surgeons for the health of the soldiers in ramp, but they should be sent in kegs easy of transportation. Will not some of our coopers furnish the La dies Committee witli kegs suitable to hold pick les, so that those sent in by our citizens can be properly packed for transportation to the camps of our soldiers. The Last Knell.—The old bell in the tower of the Fist Parish Church struck for the last time the hour of two o'clock yes terday afternoon. It was then taken down, and will soon be melted and remoulded, nnd probably be placed in some far off church to summou worshippers to the sanctuary. A new bell, weighing some 3300 or 3400 pounds, from the foundry of Jones A Co., at Troy, w ill arrive here on Monday, and take the place of tlie old bell. It will be the heaviest bell in the city. An Interesting Meeting.—The lecture preparatory to the Communion on the next Sabbath,.before the 1st, 3d, and High Street Churches, was to have been delivered by Dr. Dwight, at his Church, Thursday evening.— Alter opening the meeting and readi ng por tions of the Scripture, Dr. Dwight made some animated remarks u]iou the condition of our country, and stated that, with the consent of his brother clergymen present, the meeting would be changed Into one of prayer for onr country. The services were conducted bv Drs. Dwight, Carruthers and Chickcring. Rev. Mr. Merrill of the Bethel Church, Deacon Jo seph Libby and Henry Goddard, Esq. It was a solemn and interesting time. “Dikigo.”—Robinson, of the “Dirigo Eating Saloon,” knows how to get up a nice dinner, and what is lacking on his extensive biil of fare is scarcely worth looking after. He has every thing from a turtle steak to a lioiled^Vng; from a speckled trout to a stewed pigeon; from sliced cucumbers to the rarest of vegetables, and all cooked in a style that would make the mouth of au epicure water. We understand that he has arrangements in the country to keep his table supplied with fresh trout and other luxuries such as come from that source. His place is a busy one at dinner hour, and is a favorite resort for merchants and others whose up-town residences are too far distant to be reached conveniently.

(Signed) G. B. McClei.i.an, Maj.Gen. From Pennsylvania. Gen. Curtis not Superseded. TROOPS ARRIVING IN CINCINNATI. From Kentucky* Attack on Forrest City by Indians. From Suiite Fe. New York, September 5. Despatches received to-night from different parts of Pennsylvania show that the citizens generally have commenced the suspension of busiucss afternoons, and are organizing into companies and regiments for drill. St. Louis, Sept. 5. The Democrat of litis tnomiug says, the re port that Gen. Curtis lias been superseded as Commander of the Army of the Southwest, except for a short time, at his own request, to recover ids health, is incorrect. We have au thority for stating that he has never been rep rimanded by the Government, and is author ized to make this statement Cincinnati, Sept. 5. Business is still suspended, and volunteers and armed bodies of men continue to pour into the city by thousands. The city is quiet, and there is no excitement beyond the enthu siasm manifested over the arrivals. Regiments and companies as they arrive are bountifully supplied with provisions in 6th street Market space. A bridge of Isiats is being built across the river at the loot of Walnut street. It will lie completed to-night- The order suppress ing tile Evening Times was revoked this morn ing. The paper appears this I’. M. Gunboats are constantly patrolling the river for miles atiiiVM aiuI liplnw. Reports from Kentucky are conflicting. Nothing is known of the whereabouts of the reliels since their arrival at Paris. An order was issued this morning compel ling the citizens to la; in their houses by l> 1’. M. I St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 5. The Indians attacked Forrest City on the 3d. and were repulsed. Capt. Strout writes to the A«U't Gen., from Hutchinson, on tire 3d, that lie was attacked by lot) Indians, a part mounted. The tight lasted 2 1-2 hours, when the Indians gave way. Our loss was 3 killed and 15 wounded. Capt. Strout also states that the Indians had excel lent guns, and were dressed ]iartly in citizens dress, and rode horses. He thinks' the difficul ty iu that vicinity will be very serious. Kansas City, Sept. 5. The Saute Fe mail, w ith dates to the 25th, arrived here last evening, making the trip iu 10 days. Quite a large number of Indians were seen on the route, hut all were peaceable. The Saute Fe Gazette of the 23d, furnishes the following: Great discontent exists among the popula tion of Colorado Territory. There has been no open demonstration yet, but Gen. Canby .has made such a disposition of bis troops lis will effectually and speedily suppress any at tempts at insubordination. Mr. Maxwell has been appointed Indian Agent under the new provision, for N. Mexico. An attempt was msde to lire Independence, Mo., hut tiie flames were extinguished. Rebel Steamer Orieto at Cardenas, FEDERAL GUNBOATS WATCHING HER. Surrender of Spencer lo the Rebels. Col. Mulligan unable to find the Rebels. New York, Sept. 5. Havana advices of the 24th ulL, confirm the arrival at Cardenas of the iron clad steamer Orieto, now called the Florida, under the com mand of pirate Matlit. She lias been ordered off by the Governor General, hut staid, alleg ing that she was in distress. Three federal gunboats are waiting outside of Cardenas for her. Some 2 or 3 rebel pirate steamers had left Havana lately for parts unknown. Philadelphia, September 5. The Wheeling Intelligencer of yesterday learns that Col. Kathboue of the llt.li Virginia infantry, has surrendered Spencer to the fp bels. No particulars. Col. Mulligan has been unable to find the rebels on the line of North Western Virginia. FROM NEW ORLEANS. The City Threatened by the Rebels. BATON ROUGE NOT BURNED. New York, Sept. 5. By the Fulton to-day from New Orleans 28th, we have important news from the De partment of the Gulf. New Orleans, though threatened, is defended by nearly all the troops in the department, who are strongly entrenched, and the city is be lieved to be safe against any attack the rebels can make. Baton Rouge has not been burned. Some buildings which obstructed the range of our cannon were burned. This was done in order that the city might he protected by the gmi IKnits after the evacuation by our forces should be accomplished. No other conflagration lias taken place there. The town is now held by ouf gimlsials, which have already repulsed a rebel attack, and are competent to protect it. The whole reliel story heretofore published is essentially false. Rebels Marching on Frankfort. LorisviLLE, Ky.. Sept. 5. Col. Thomas Swords, A. Q. M. noon to-day we havelaa-n unable to learn that these accounts have been confirmed by dispatches from military officers, detailed to the duty of closely observing the movements of the enemy on and about the river. Large masses of our troops continue to tie marched, night and day, to positions within striking distance of the river fords. The delay of the rebels in making their ex pected attack, has given us plenty of time to make due preparations for their reception, whenever they may appear in threatening numbers. It is not improper for us to mention, that if a battle occurs in this region shortly, the reb els must meet more than twice as many disci plined troops as were massed against them under Gens. Pope and But nside, besides a very heavy force of new levies that have been ar riving here for three weeks past by thousa^ls daily. In the course of last night, a small body of rebel cavalry is said to have made a raid on tlie front, oppo-ite Balls Cross road, capturing twenty-live of tlie New York cavaliy and a small train of wagons, tlie latter being re-taken from them by a federal scouting cavulry lorce before they could run them off. Oapture of Middlebury. Memphis, Sept. 3. A fight Is reported to have taken place at Middlebury, seven miles from Bolivar, Sunday P. M., lasting several hours. The town was taken by tlie rebels. The Kederal loss was 37 killed and 7 take.u prisoners. The rebel loss was 4 killed and 8 wounded. Among tlie rels'ls killed is Capt. Lappiugton of St. Louis. The steamer Amelia was tired into on her last passage up from Helena by tlie guerillas from the fool of Puck Island, killing and wounding two. The miliuiry landed and burned tlie houses in the vicinity, mid laid the plantations in waste. Killeen prisoners were taken. The negroes on the plantations were also brought away. Com mercial.

MISCELLANY. A Physician's Stoiit.—A touch of ro mance may be permitted to enliven Hie sober pages of medical record. The brilliant hues of poesy gather around the story of a princess's gratitude to her physician which has been awakening the gobemouclu's of Paris and Lon don to sympathetic enthusiasm. A young la dy of rank—a Russian princess—who had suddenly become blind from the effect of ex posure to the sunlight upon snow, bad Ih-cii sent to Dusseldorf to consult Holl'rath, whose reputation a» an oculist was so widely spread. (She was promised recovery in a milder climate, and was sent to Palermo, where she improved, for some time: but undergoing a relapse, a young physician was dispatched by the great oculist to take charge of the case for him, and report progress. His attention was unremit ting. and the result so far successful that, finally, the lady was ordered to return to Dus seldorf under his care, the eyes being ban daged permanently until her arrival there. At the consultation her eyes were unbandaged, and delighted with the improvement in iier sight, this demonstrative princess “glanced wildly round the assembly, and in one moment, despite her weakened sight, seemed to scan every countenance turned with such interest towards her own, and then, without a moment's hesitation as if im|H'llcd by a magnetic power stronger than herself—she walked across the room toward where the young doctor—her friend and companion—stood, silent and trem bling, concealed by the rest, and taking his hand, pressed it to her lips, and forgetting all beside gratitude, she gazed upon him, and burst into a passion of tears.” We think we have read something a good deal like this be fore; but perhaps it is the style oniy which is ficticious, while the facts may lie real. There is an amount ol circumstantial detail by which the story is authenticated, as the marriage just celebrated between the parties, and the prod uction of the old play of “Valerie” at the The atre Francais apropos? trovato. It is pleas ant to hear occasionally of grateful princesses, and the recital Is, of course, likely to stimulate young physicians to the most devoted atten tions—to all their patients. Outbursts of grat itude are really much needed now-a-days in the relations of the public to their medical attendants. We fear they are almost as rare as they are desirable. Axoel koot-pkints.—“He spake well who said that little graves are the foot-prints of an gels.” Sweet child-angels! who have winged their sweet, irresistible flight from the earth to their Father’s bosom above! You eau trace these foot-priats all over the world, telling you that holier ones have passed by; purer ones, stealing out from humanity, away from sinning, through little rounded graves, up where the Saviour loves to clasp the precious cherubs in his arms—these, their last foot-prints, as they went gently away (torn us. It’s a very little grave, with a snowy tablet of marble at its head, and a fidl spray of wil low boughs falling over the marble: a cluster of Bctldeham stars mingle with white blossoms, with the sweet blue violet blows; and the green, silken blades of grass pointing heavenwards all over the tiny mound. “Our little one in Heaven!” There is nothing else chiselled out of the hard, bright marble; nothing else to tell whose grave it is, there in the far away corner of the cemetery. “Our little one in Heaven,” reads from the tombstone a giddy, laughing rambler, Hut the laugh is hushed; for the merry, careless one knows that an angel has passed that way, and this is its last foot-print on earth, as it went, pure and sinless, to its home. “It’s a little child's grave,” whispers anoth er, who turns away from the tall proud mon uments to the meek, lowly marble stone. “It's a little child's grave,” whispers the lip*, but the heart lavs almost still with holy awe, and sweet, full calmness of humanity, ior a cherub in Heaven went up from the still wee form ly ing there in its coffin; a child has lived on earth who was sinless as the, angels an1: and lien- it lies, telling you that it* spirit went through this grave home to God. It's the foot print of an angel; and its weeping, weary mother will tell you so; sluyvill tell you brok enly through her tears, if ®e doe* so often clasp the empty air in vain for the silken haired head which lay so confidingly on her yearning bosom, that her little child was pure and sin less; and as it lay with its sweet, clear eyes raised to her fond faee, it was ministering an angel’s ministry to her heart. It was drawing it gently and unresistingly away from its worship of life; and when it* bright eye* closed forever, she knew an angel had been on earth, and had gone home again; and the grave there under the willow sprays was its last foot-print, as it took the ministry of its mother’s love away from the world to the yearning of it* Father"* tiosom above. The mother’s heart is in Heaven; and the tiny grave tells her to follow in the foot-prints of her angel-child, and she, too, will be where her heart and her treasure is. Weep not, mourners, over little graves, ly ing in their quiet fold-like churchyards; for children pure and holy are sleeping there. Ah! you know they have lived on earth; lived without sinning; lived gentle, saint-like lives, unconscious even of sin’s existence; and those meek, lowly mounds, which you can hardly see for your falling tears, an- the foot-prim* of the angels of these holy children, as they went trustingly away to their cherub-songs In Heaven. Neli.ie. BEMrnFUU—The following beautiful alle gory is attributed to Hon. Joint .1. Crittenden; conceived and formed by him in one of his masterly pleas in defence of a criminal on trial for his life, before a Kentucky court: When God in his eternal counsel, conceived the thouuht of man's creation, he called to him the three Ministers who wait constantly U|hmi the throne—Justice, Truth and Mercy, and thus addressed them: “Shall we make man?" Then said Justice, “O, God, make him not, for he will trample upon thy laws.” Truth made answer also, “O, God, make him not, for he will pollute thy saneturies.” Hut Mercy, dropping upon her knees, and looking up through her tears, exclaimed, “O, God, make him; I will watch over him with my care, through all the dark path* which he may have to tread.” Then God made man, and said to him, “O, man! Kiou art the child of Mercy; go and deal with thy brother.’ .or1 (Jod, there is one place where death is not life’s brother —where life reigns alone; “to live” is not the first gylablc whit It is to 1st followed by the next, "‘to die.” There is a land where (h ath knells are never tolled, where winding si.. nre never woven, where graves are never dug.
