[From our Regular Corraapo*dent.j Letter from the National Capital. Washtngton, D. C., Sept. bth, 1862. Editors of Press:—The comparative quiet that prevailed In this city for a few days, has passed away, and all is hublmb and confusion to lookers on, if there is anybody that stops long euough to look on. The avenue is full, the Hotels are full, the city is full, and if a “conscription act” should be enforced here to day an army might be raised sufficient to war rant the raising of Die cry “On to Kiclunond,” or any other poiut, where rebeldom might de velope itself through its armed forces. Ma ny have come in here from the adjoining country, seekiug a place of refuge and safety, others to look alter the dead and woundcd.Ac. There is no room here, except in the “Old Capitol Prison,” for any of Jeff. Davis’ devo tees. Notwithstanding all this, they are very much inclined to hang around the outskirts, seeking admission. They must be Hware of the crowded state of the city, for it is said that some of them have visited us, and that two of their Cavalry, were arrested a few days ago in our streets. Never since the breaking out of the war, has there been such a moving of troops thiough the city, as during the last few days and nights. Last night, the beat of the drum, the trampling of troops and the rattling of artillery was heard during the entire night, on their way to cer tain points where it is understood they arc very mueh needed. As the head of the army reach ed Williard’s, some one proposed cheers for Gen. McClellan. The cheeriug commenced in front, and with lightning speed extended the entire line of the advancing hosts,which reach ed back over “Long Bridge.” As they passed the General's residence, being some two hours in passing, one continued roar was kept up by the troops, manifesting a degree of enthusiasm unparalleled. If there is a doubt in the mind of any one in regard to who should be placed at the head of our army in the field, let them come on here, and that doubt will at once be removed. 1 care hot how strong their prejudices, nor how hard they may have labored to create and es tablish public sentiment touching this import ant question. No general can lead our army successfully in the field but George B. McClellan, so long, j at any rate, as the present feeling exists among the troops in regard to him. And this feeling is universal. You ask these soldiers as they pass along, where they are going? they will cry out with enthusiasm bordering upon wild ness, “We are going to fight under our Gener al, we have got a General now,our old General, and we will fight under nobody-else.” Here is a clear indication of the feeling existing in the army universally, and it is acknowledged here on all hands. The mouths of those who have made it their principal business to abuse the President and McClellan have been com pletely closed, the most of them, by having an opportunity to see in a clear and distinct light the error they had fallen into,but some of them have been stopped by a blow, on the sideoflhe head by a soldier from the field, who has inci dentally heard as he passed in the street, their abuse. It Is certainly a very gratifying fact that we are again settling down upon this question of leadership. We were very mucli pleased to meet Rev. Mr. Stebbens, Hon. S. E. Spring and others of the good citizens of Portland here,having come out on an errand of mercy, aud although they were not called upon to act In the capacity iu which it was supposed they were needed, yet we think they will be satisfied, as well as the people of Portland, that the lime and money expended on account of their trip to Washing ton, have been well appropriated. They will lie prepared to represent things in their true light when they return to your city. How many a heart, too, was made glad by their presence, and kind words, as they visited the Hospitals. It would have done you good, Mr. Editor, to have seen Mr. Stebhins grasp the hand of the soldiers, both in and out of the Hospital,—some adopted citizens of Port land, perhaps, who knew Mr. S., but with whom he was unacquainted,—how quick an acquaintance was formed, aud with what in terest did Mr. 8. inquire for their welfare, aud take minutes of their wauts, and of the loca tions of their families, promising to visit them upon his return. Upon his inquiring of one poor wounded man, whether he stooed him handsomely at Winchester, rapturing his wounded uud colors and compelling a rapid and disorderly retreat. Gen. Hanks followed him down the valley, near to Staunton, without getting a fight out of him. Jackson subaaquently drove Banks across the Potomac, when the latter lmd only four thousand men to coutend with the form er’s thirty thousand. Jackson then ran a way from Fkkmont, who compelled an inde cisive fight at ('ross Keys, in which neither could claim a victory, as laith retreated in op posite directions the day after. It is denied by Mr. Hclbckt and others, who ought to know, that Jackson did any fighting in the battles on our right wing before liichmoiid. We next hear of him at Cedar Mountain, hut he marched in the wrong direction the day af ter the battle to Is- able to claim it as a great success. It was Lee’s whole army who got in Pope’s rear at Manassas, and not Jackson alone, as it is generally supposed. In the last two days’ Bull Hun battles it is denied that Jackson was present at all. lie however, did attempt to flank our forces at Fairfax, but was driven bark and defeated by Generals Keaknev and Stevens. "Stonewall" Jackson, in short, is a good partisan leader—quick, daring, and given to doing unexpected things. But tiiat class of men are always overrated. He has been whip Gd by one of our generals already, and what s been done once can lie done again. Let us l»e careful how we help make repulutious for the red-handed traitors. An Incident of the Wail—The day after the engagement of thetith of June, near Ilar risonbnrgh, Vn., in which Capt. Haines, of the 1st X. J. Cavalry, was killed, a party from his regiment were sent in search of the body. They met with no success till an old woman, the wife of a Hunker, came, asking what they wanted. Upon being told, she said her litis "Uii'i mail III'M imij, iiiiu IVUIIU UK inniV Ul it young officer lying in the lane near their house, and raised hitn. but found that he was quite dead- Touched with pity at the sight of one fallen in his beauty, ill such eariv manhood, he took the body of the stranger up. and, that it might Is' spared from further mutilation, with two of his neighbors, whom he culled to aid him, dug a grave, and buried it near a little school-house. She pointed out the spot. There were four graves, one newly made. This they opened, and found the object of their search. The good old man had no coffin, but had covered the iHittoin of the grave with boughs that he cut from the trees. Tenderly he laid within the young man's graceful form, then spread a cloth over the face, and putting a board the entire length, tilled in the earth. His unwonted tusk complete,he turned to his home with the satisfaction of having done a kindly deed for one whom he had nev er known in life. Circumstance* might have kept unknown the old man’s act, but surely Heaven's blessing will reward him for his deed of kiudness.—N. Y. Observer. A Present for Koyaltt. —The Colt’s Arms Manufacturing Company have just com pleted a pair of pistols of Colt’s patent, ordered by the Pcrsidcnt as a present on his private account to the King of Denmark. They are of the style of the "old model improved, the barrels eight inches long, and the stock of the richest black walnut, elegantlv carved in relief. All the iron and steel is completely covered with gold inlaid in lieautiful arabesque*, with representations of the mechanic arts, agricul ture and commerce elegantly designed and executed. The gold used in these inlayings alone cost over one hundred dollars. The trimmings to the weapons arc of solid silver, also elaborately engraved, and on a shield in serted in the handle is an inscription:—“From the President of the United States to the King ol Denmark.” The weaimns are contained ill a rosewood case heavily trimmed with silver. The case contains also a number of cartridges, a bullet mould and the necessary appendages. The whole cost of this lieautiful present is not far from nine huudred dollars. Vandalism.—The Masonic jewels belong ing to Fredricksburg J-odge, of which Gen. Washington was a member, were stolen while that city was in the posessinn of the enemy. Their intrinsic, value is small compared with the associations with which they were connect ed. They were worn by Gen. Washington in his several offices of Deacon, Warden anil mas ter of Fredricksburg Lodge, and were highly prized as relics. MISCELLANEOUS.

The Great Question—“To be, or not to be r—to Conquer, or to be Conquered f Every day's experience and observation go to prove that,whatever opinions may have pre vailed a year ago, or however loyal men may have differed in relation to the objects and tbe prosecution of the war, there can be no donbt now, among really loyal men, that tile whole problem of the war is reduced to this single proposition: whether the loyal States shall conquer, or whether they shall be conquered; whether rebellion shall be crushed, or whether it shall crush the government;—whether the proud, domineering, insolent hutspurs of the slave States shall be reduced to obedience, or whether they shall triumph, and exercise their unbridled control over the government of the country, and domineer witli infernal insolence over the industrious, loyal, and intelligent free people of the North. This is the problem, and it lias got to lx; solved, not by the pen but by the sword, and the record of its solution writ ten out, not with ink but in blood. We are satisfied of the truth of a remark we havcolten made, that the struggle ol the hour is between two civilizations; or,rather,between the civilization of free schools, popular educa tion, a free ballot, a free conscience and a free churchgindjthe semi-barhrism ofa feudal system more over-bearing, more despotic, and less in accordance with the spirit and genius of the lfith century, than was the European feudal ism of the “Middle Ages.'’ While the people of the free States have been drinking in the bracing air of their free hills and lolly moun tains, and trying to promote the humanities of the age by a system of Institutions in accord ance with equal rights and the largest liberty, the people of the South, bom of the same com mon origin, schooled in the same original con test for freedom, and baptized in the best blood of a common Revolution, have been nursing their undemocratic institutions, lighting down popular education, combatting the idea of hu man equality, and working, and living upon the toil of, their slaves—living without person al toil or habits of industry upon the sweat of menials—until the genius of their accursed in stitution has taken possession of their entire being, developing in them a spirit of despot ism, and nourishing their proud self-esteem and egotism, so that they have come to regard themselves as creatures of superior mould, in whose vein s courses no common blood, hut who, with their slaves, make up all there is of humanity worth preserving or regarding,while the people of the North are looked upon as an inferior race, wanting it all the elements of strength, courage and manliness, whose tilting position is somewhere between that of the lord ly master and his cringing slave—a sort of inld die-man between the black producer and his master cousumer—convenient hut not indis pensable, and to 1m1 tolerated while he consents to be governed, but ignored when he presumes to think ami act for and to govern himself. The people of the South talk of their Nor man origin, and sc«lf at the Saxon origin of the Northern people, and as the old Normans conquered the Saxons, so they think to con quer and govern the Saxons of the North! The following extract from the Kentucky Courier, or rebel paper on wheels, that rolled otr from Louisville to Unwliug Green, to avoid the storm of loyal wrath, and finally gave up Its worthless ghost, exhibits the spirit to which we refer: The Norman cavalier cannot brook the vul gar familiarly of the Saxon Yankee, while the latter is continually devising some plan to bring his aristocratic neigh lair to Ills own de tested level. This was the contest long waged ill the old United States. So long as Dickin son dough-faces were to be bought, and Coch rane cowards to be frightened, so long was the Union tolerable to Southern men; but when, owing to a division in our ranks, the Yankee hirelings placed one of their own spawn over us, political connection became unendurable, and separation necessary to preserve 4our self respect. As our Norman kinsmen in England, always a minority,have ruled their Saxon countrymen in political vassalage up to the present day, so liave we “slave oligarchs,” governed the Yan kees till within a twelve mouth. We framed the constitution, for seventy years moulded Uie policy of government, and placed our own men, or “northern men with southern princi ples,” in power. On the 6th of November, 1800, the Puritans emancipated themselves, and are now ill vio lent insurrection against their former owners. This insane holiday freak will not last long however, for, dastards in tight and incapable of self-government, they will inevitably again fall under the control of the superior race. A few more Bull Hun thrashings will bring them once more under the yoke, as docile as the most loyal of our Ethiopian “chattels.” A Kiclnuond paper of a recent date, exhib its the same spirit. An extract will suffice: The whole experience of the war is an at testation of the truth long since discovered by impartial observers., that the master-race of this continent is found in the .Southern States. Of a betler stock originally, and habituated pi manlier pursuits and exercises, they have ruled in affairs of State by force of the strong er will, and larger wisdom that pertain to, and distinguish superior races of men; while on the Held of battle they have, in every battle, held a priority of place, conceded to them by their present adversaries. This natural dominaney of the Southern people has had much to do in bringing on the war. The inferior race, grown strong in num bers, and ambitious from prosperity, have re volted against,and now seek to overthrow and destroy those whose superiority was a con stant source of envy, and self-reproach. There is no fiercer malevolence than that of caste, and it is this which ha- so long stirred the Yan kee bile. Always in the presence ol a South ern gentleman, he lias felt a strong, and pain fuly repressed impulse to take off his hat.— This conscious inferiority has galled tire jeal ous and malignant creature until lie has brok en out in servile insurrection. He has vainly concluded that his numbers can overwhelm and exterminate the subjects of his envy, and that lie, succeeding to the broad acres, and lile cral habitudes of the Southern gentry, will come to he looked upon as a gentleman, too! With us the contest i* one lor hereditary rights, for tile sacred thing' ol home, for-1lie old repute of the liottcr blood. With the Yan kee it is a rclsdlious and infatuated struggle for a place he is unworthy of, for privileges he would degrade, for projierly lie would barter, and for institutions lie could neither compre hend, uor enjoy. It is tire old and never-end ing strife between pratriclan and proletarian, lietwcun gentle and vile, it is the offer of Wat tle on a now Held of muscle against spirit— n uni Iters against courage. It is not ii]h>ii Southern soil, and among the descendants of Cavaliers and Hugenots, that the battle will go in favor of brute (bn*. Who can doubt that the spirit evinced in the above extracts, which talks of Southern blood, and Yankee bile, of Southern gentlemen, and the “inferior races” of the North, has been bred and matured in the atmosphere of negro slavery, as naturally as tniisipiitos generate in putrid water, or maggots in a dead dog; or who can deny that the legitimate tendency of slavery, in exalting one man to supreme con trol over the actions and thoughts, the souls and bodies of many, is to puff kiiu up with just such a feeling as the above indicates, and to render him unfit for a republican government, and unsafe in a country where eijual rights are thought worthy of a revolution to establish thorn, or of a bloody rebellion to subvert them allcr they have been established. Enough ha- been said to show that, between the loyal and the disloyal states, there is no bond of sympathy; that all harmony has lieen destroyed. We think it needs no proof to show that litis harmony has been interrupted and destroyed only by the influence of that per j llieious system of education through which the southern mind passes, ami that this education is almost if not quite inseparable from that nunalural system of despotism to which the South is now clinging. They have been con tent with the North while they could rule wlicn required to stand up with us as equals they rebel and attempt our destruction. That despotic power, the outgrowth of their despot ic spirit, nvi.it he subdued, crustied if you please, or it will subdue and crush that which op|ioscs it. Can it lie subdued while that which both generates and fosters it remains untouch ed? Doubted! Can peace ever return while this despotic spirit remains unsubdued? Uoubted! Shall, then, the loyal North plead guilty to the charge of “inferiority,” and allow the “Norman Cavalier,” to ride rough-shud over the “Saxon Yankee?” God forbid! What then Let the millions of free men of the North rise up in the majesty of that strength 'which freedom gives, and hurl back the base taunt of a domineering oligarchy, and prove their own right to stand on an equality with all oth er men, though to do this it exterminate every thing that tends to foster a despotic spirit, re duces the lords of the Southern soil base uses of manure for their worn out plantations, am! introduces the uncursed virgin acres of that whole country to the pioneer from Yankee land and to the immigrant from overcrowded Europe, and tints lays the foundation of a new and better civilization, based upon better be cause more common blood. The North to he CoxquKUEu.—St. Cath arines, C, W., is reported to hi1 a great resort of secessionists from the States, and a corres pondent ol the New York Post, writing from that locality, says: “Under the influence of the recent federal reverses, the secession 1st* of this place have ventured to make some significant remarks.— They openly declare that tile Union xhttll not hr. broken, hut that if the North is beaten, it shall Is- subjected to the rule of Jeff Davis, Who will Im tile next President of tile still United States; for the Northern Slates will lie held as subjugated provinces. This lets the cat out of tile hag rat tier prematurely, and it does not at all suit the Canadians now sympa thizing witii the South. T'liev oocnlv sav that they want the Union to lie dissolved, and two or more confederacies to exist iu its place.” That the leaders of this unholy reliellion did not originally contemplate a division of etn pipe, is self-evident. They calculated upon a divided North, and intended to seize the reins of government, establish a military dcs|Mttism, and compel the freemen of the North to live under their domination. Failing in their cal culations. and finding the North united when they commenced their infernal work, they as sumed another character, for the time, anil pro claimed to the world that all they wanted was to lie “let alone,” and they actually succeeded in making some of our own iieople believe that to be their only intention. But recent successes have made them hold, and they now declare their real intention, that of subjugat ing the North. They w ill not be content w ith being “let alone.” They intend to rule the free millions of the North in a spirit embit tered by the war, and flushed with military success. Should they succeed in their designs, the spirit of liberty will bid farewell to the shores of the New World, where she has for a season found a resting place, and across the Atlantic may seek a home among the old na tions of Europe. We should have a military government, more despotic in its character than any government under Heaven. And it ha« come to this, as we have before said—that we must either conquer, or lie con quered. It is not whether we will consent to a division of these I’uited States, and the for mation of twoor more new confederacies upon the ruins of the old. That time is past, if it ever were the question before us. We must either establish the supremacy of the United States, and the authority of the Constitution, in the rebellious Stales, or submit to be ruled by the rehels as subjugated province*. These are the terrible alternatives. Is there a man iu Maine, in New England, In all the loyal States, so craven that lie will not spring to his feet, and declare his determination that the Union must ho maintained, the ('ouslitutiou vindicated, and this foul rebellion crushed.— There is no escape. The dread alternative is forced upon us. Let the Government move iu its might, and the people will sustain it.

Augusta, Sept. 11,1862. The account in my last of the election in Hallow'd! was “strangely mixed,” and needs explanation. The remarks respecting Mr. Jlvtlrr were intended to apply to Mr. Dum iwr, who, I w as informed at the time of writ "Kt \miiivii nun jtni iiiTuiv iiiiiu dint;,/ imiu been elected over Mr. livtler, but just before, the train started, learning that Mr. Uutler was elected. I hastily dropped a note iuteuded to correct the mistake, which however made it still worse. E. K. Butler, Esq., who was elect- cd over Mr. Diimmer, a Jameson man, is, and always lias been, a staunch republican. I trust the haste with which a correspondent is some times obliged to write, will lie some palliation lor an occasional error ill statement. About live hundred nine months men are already in "Camp Keyes,” and more are almost hourly arriving every train, boat, stage and private conveyance. Tile Waldoboro’ company of 90 men march ed to llie camp yesterday, accompanied liy (lie band, and led by lion. Isaac Keed; and the Bath company, 100 strong, have also arrived, w ith Hon. 1. l'uttinin, Mayor of that city, at their head. The men are all of admirable stamp, and the heartiest enthusiasm prevails among them. Commandant Bicker has appointed Asa Hedge, Esq., of this city. Commissary, and B. K. Morse, Esq., .Sutler, lor his command. They will prove competent and laithlui olheers.

Editors :—One word if you please The reputation of our State is in issue. Yon publish no less than three different communi cations, charging me with “injustice,” and substantially with untruth. You go a little out of your way to endorse the charge, by de claring that the "statement” in ty)>e, “exoner ates tint committee and Mr. Ducts from all blame.” And then you finish off by saying, “we trust nil parlies wiil be content to let the matter drop.” Can’t do it gentlemen. To hit a lellow a clip and holler "enough!'' is not the way to stop a controversy. Let us see how the matter stands now. My charge is that Mr. X. J. Davis furnished invit 7 1-2 cents a head for the clam-chowder! But enough, in reply to Mr. Gilman. Next we have the Mayor of Bath, Mr. Bailey, who had nothing at all to do with the clam-chow der, and i> not charged with participation or complicity in any way. So far from this in deed, is the fact, that he offered me the key of Ills house, and invited me and my w ife to go there and take possession, if we should arrive first, and we will venture to say he, if put upon the stand, would go as far at least as we do, in relation to that clam-chowder. Next, we have the reply of N. J. Davis Esquire, of the Commkbciai, llorsE, who, after repeating the argument* of Mr. Gilman, avers that he gets from 50 cents to $2.50 a head for hi* collations, dinner*, Ac.; that the kettles were new, which "might have given the chowder an odd taste,"—but how about the smell I said nothing about the taste; and that the ImiwIs came back to lie filled with what he calls “stinking ehotrder"—for I did not,—which only proved what l said first alsiut laiuMied wolves; that “one kettle full of the potatoes was not sufficiently done to suit the taste of all”—admitted; and finally, that I seem “determined to throw Hie hlnine on him that the multitude were kept caged In the hot sunshine,” which is a great mistake, for I do no such thing; and that “the committee hare not expressed one iron! of dissatis faction, to hin knoicledije. I'o which, if true, I have only to say, the more shame for them! With the reputation of the State of Maine, of the Maine Historical Society, at stake, they well deserve to lie gibbeted afresh, on their ow n account, if they know w hat l have said to lie true, or even if they know it to lie false; for they liarc not denied—and therefore have admitted—all that 1 have laid to say about the “feast of shells" and the taint ed clams. J. >f. Proper Kebnku of a Secessionist. W® learn that on Wednesday last a well-to do citizen of the town of Cumberland was called upon by an old friend from a neighbor ing county, who dropped in with his wife to renew old acquaintance, and to enjoy a brief season socially w ith the associate of his boy hood. The citizen was glad to see them, pressed them to accept the hospitalities of his house—which invitation was cheerfully accepted—but soon alter opened a gross tirade against the war, the government, the adminis tration, the “black republicans” generally, and everybody and everything that did not tally with his own disloyal heart. The visiting friend—a thorough Union man—stood it a while, and then requested that he would allow political matters to subside tor the time being, as they differed widely in their views, and as it was painful to him to listen to such re marks—remarks which, as a gentleman, he could not feel at liberty to combat in the spirit in w hich they were uttered, in the house of his entertainer and friend. Hut the obstreperous citizen seemed disus ed lo know no friends when so good an oppor* lunity existed for venting his spleen against his political foes, ami in favor of his old demo- j eratic friends of Jell*. Davis’ realm. The vis- j it or finally told him that lie hail called simply tor purposes of friendship, not to otleud or to I hi oirended, but that his country was superior in its claims upon him to the demands of ordi nary friendship, and rather than hear that aspersed he should prefer to decline hospitality, and to go on his way. He therefore re-har nessed his horse, bill his friend good-bye, left the dinner smoking upon the table, ami came to the city—some eight or ten miles—on :ui j empty stomach but w ith a lull heart. For the Portland Daily Press. Popham and Plymouth. Ex-Govenor Washburn of Massachusetts at the celebration at Fort Popham, said, that the j failure of the settlement at the Kennebec, and the success of that at Plymouth, arose from the fact, that the first was a mere mercantile and money making adventure, while the latter was based upon principle. Our venerable mother Massachusetts, from Governor down to “Medal scholar,’’ has so long sounded her trumpet of glorification, as the “elect” of this continent, that we know it good old lady, an act of filial ingratitude, that her down east daughter should set up a claim as the real founder of New England coloniza tion. With all line deference to Govenor Washburn and the historians of Massachusetts, we beg leave to question their position, that the mo tives which led to the settlement of Massa chusetts, were either higher or different from those which led to the settlement of Maine. The religious influence of the age was the ‘•unseen hand” of Providence, directing the ‘beautiful vicissitude” of events, to the settle ment of this continent; but the “greed of gain” was as strong with the Puritan as with the Cavalier; and the English company of “Mer chant Adventurers,” had really as much to do with Use colonization of all New England, as religious or civil considerations. The employment of English soldiers by the Dutch governments, led them to tolerate the erection of protesiaut churches and chapels; hut the polemical spirit of the age followed the “Independents” across the channel and tiie “Separatist Church” at Amsterdam soon sepa rated, by what, to our age, appears a puerile disputation about infant baptism, church gov ernment and even “woman’s apparel.” Bradford says, that “a young widow, a grave matron, very modest, ready to do any good works, and helpful to mauy,” w;is excommuni cated “for wearing of some whalebone in the boddice and sleeves of her dress, and also corked shoes.” These church dissensions at Amsterdam, un doubtedly had a great influence with Kobin son, for after alxmt a year’s stay, he removed with hierson or |H*rsons, shall still remain in the common stock until the division.” All were to have meat, drink and apparel out of the common stock of the goods of the colony. The settlements of Salem,Charlestown, Bos ton, Ac., were mercantile adventurers, mainly, other superior harbor advantages of Tri moun tain soon giving Boston that leading commer cial ami social influence which she holds in New England to this day. It reads prettily in history and poetry, that our Pilgrim fathers cauie here to establish free dom to worship God,” but the persecutions of the Baptists, Quakers, and others, are an awful protest against this Massachusetts theo ry and, for ourselves, we believe the time will come when the sons of New Eugland wilj stand upon the granite rocks of Fort Popham, and feel the truth of the words upon the me morial stone, to wit: “that the shores of New England, was founded here Aug, 111, O. S., 1607, under George Popham.” Maine. (Forth** Itaily Press. II. S. Sanitary Commission.

MATTERS ABOUT TOWN. £9=“We arc indebted to Mr. How, Foreigr Mail clerk in the Post Office, for London am Liverpool papers per steamship Norwegiat at Quebec from Liverpool. Casco.—The quota of this town was 18, Company No. 1 raised their quota of 5, Wed nesday, without drafting. Company No i raised on the same day, 17, being four moratriotic feel ing displayed in the matter. Shipm asters Oath of Allkoi ance.—llj virtue of instructions to all the Collectors o Customs, the Secretary of the Treasury has or dered that the late law of Congress shall Ik enforced, which requires all shipmasters whenever they clear, whether foreign or coast ers, to take an oath of allegiance to the United States. Accident.—Winslow Hall, son of the jun ior editor of the Press, while at play with some lads, Wednesday evening, fell from a fence to the ground, a short distance, and broke both bones of one of his arms alamt half way lie tween the wrist and the elbow. I)r. Wright was called, and set the bones, and yesterday the little fellow was in a very comfortable con dition. 20rii Maine.—A letter from a private in the 20th Maine regiment, says they arrived at Alexandria last Saturday afternoon, and on Sunday went into camp at Washington, near the Arsenal grounds. The men were all in good health, and line spirits. He further says, he does not believe there arc five men in the Regiment who would accept their discharge if it was offered to them. As to their field offi cers, he says if the election was left to the rank and file, they would elect the same offi cers they now have. Convention of Mute*.—The New Eng land Association of Deaf and Dumb con tinued their session yesterday at the City Hall. An oration was given by Mr. Samuel Rowe, formerly of New Gloucester, now of Boston, which was interpreted to the audi ence by Dr. Galiaudet, of New York. In the evening there were religious services In St. Stephen’s Church, conducted in the mute lan guage, by Dr. Galiaudet. This closed the pro ceedings of the Convention. The next session will be held at Providence, R. I. Presentation.—The lads or the three Grammar schools yesterday afternoon present ed their music teacher, Mr. Samuel Thurston— who has enlisted in the 5th Maine Battery— with a beautiful revolver. The presentation was made in the new City Hall by Mr. M. Pickering, of the Park street Grammar School, in behalf of the lads, who read an address, which w as signed by a committee of lads from each of the schools. Mr. Thurston responded in a few patriotic remarks. The boys then sung “America” with a will, and separated with three hearty cheers for Mr. Thurston. The project of presenting the pistol was started by George F. Thurston, of the Park street Grammar School. Militart Election.—On Wedneslav, the quotas of nine months' men from the towns of Bridgton, Bethel, Brownfield, Harrison, Swe den, Gilead and Upton, numbering 101 men, came into the city and proceeded to Camp I.in >*»ln. Yesterday an election of officers for this company was held. Major General Virgin presiding. Horace C. Little, of Bridgton, was unanimously elected Captain; E. Meilen Wright, of Bethel, 1st Lieutenant, nnd Fernald, of Harrison, 2d Lieutenant. We arc pleased at the election of Mr. Little. He has exerted himself nobly in the recruit ing business, and, as we think, will make an excellent officer. He has been engaged in publishing and editing the Bridgton Report er, and is the second captain furnished from that office—Enoch Wright, Esq., former editor of the paper, having gone out as Captain of Company E. 12th Maine Regiment. Union Chcrch.—The work of rebuilding this edifice is going on with great rapidity. The walls are up, and two of the trusses of tile roof. There are to be six trusses, and the roof will be one of the most substantial in the city. Mr. Charles R. Frost is the contractor. If the work on the church is continued with the same rapidity, it will not be a great while before it will lie ready for occupation, and our citizens will be regaled w ith music from the chime of bells In the tower. We learn that there will be no pews sold in this church. They will be leased annually; aud every one who hires a pew will have the privilege of voting in all Parish affairs. If he chooses to leave that place of worship for another, he is not encumbered with a pew costing Iront $200 to $600. This is truly dem ocratic, and, as appears to us, the best way of mauagiug the affairs of a congregation: Serenade to Mr. Sweat.—A portion of the Democrats turned out last evening and formed a procession at the old City Hall, and, with the Portland Band, proceeded to the res idence of Hon. L. D. M. Sweat, on State street, and gave him a serenade. In respouse to a call, Mr. Sweat appeared upon the balcony, and made a speech of some length, defining his position. He said he had confidence in the President, and should supi>ort Inin in Ins meas ures to put down this rebellion. At the same time he pitched into the secession sentiment at the {south and the abolition element at the North, declaring that Sumner, Wilson, Phillipseculiar w'ay. This evening, Dr. C.. after a short explana tory lecture, will administer the Gus to twelve gentlemen of this city, and we shall probably have specimens of oratory, dancing, singing, &c., which will astonish not ouly the audience, but the gentlemen subjects themselves. LATEST TO THE Portland Daily Press. An Attack on Washington, N. C. REBELS REPIXSED. Gunboat blown up and Lost of Life. Foktkbss Moxkok, Sept. 10. By the arrival of the steamer Guide, from New hum, we learn that the rebels, 120Ustrong, attacked Washington, N. C., on tlie morning of the tlth lost. Alter a desperate light of two hours, the rebels were repulsed and pursued seven miles. The gunboat Louisiana render ed essential service in- shi lling the rebels out of the strong position they had seized. The gunboat Picket was blown up by the accident al explosion of her magazine. Capt- Niehols and uineteen men were killed and six wound ed. Our loss in the light on shore was seven killed and forty-seven wounded. The rcliels lost thirty killed anil thirty-six taken prisoners. The 1st regiment of North Carolina Union volunteers, under Col. Potter, fought with the greatest bravery and most determined heroism. Col. Potter had a horse shot under him. Com panies II and 1) of the 24th Massachusetts reg iment were in the action. None of them were killed but several were wounded, Our force engaged was only 500. In addition to our killed and wounded, we have four men miss ing. A large number of the rebels were wounded, Gen. Foster and stair went to Washington, N. C., on Sunday. Col. Stevenson will have command of Newbern in Gcu. Foster's ab sence. Capt. F. F. Wells, of Boston, Mass., with twenty divers, three hundred men, and four whale ships, arrived here yesterday, for the purpose of raising the sunken vessels at Hamp ton, Newport News, Gosport and James Kiver. Their contract compels them to raise the Cum berland whole, but Capt. Wells intends also to raise the Merriinae whole If |8>ssible. Some fifty or seventy-live vessels of all class es received orders yesterday to report to head quarters, for the purpose of receiving their discharge from the United States service. Appearance of the Rebel Army. Occupation of Hagrtstown by the Rebels. Probable Evacuation of Harper'a Ferry. Baltimore, Sept. 11. A gcntlmnan who arrived here from Fred erick this morning, confirms previous state ments as to the wretched appearance of the rebels. They appeared to be generally well armed, but shockingly filthy. In one sense every man might be considered a host in him self, judging from the animated nature of their persons. The telegraph operator at Elysville reports haviug heard heavy cannonading in the dis tance all llie morning. Philadelphia, Sept. 11. The Bulletin’s Harrisburg dispatch says that Hagerstown is occupied by only got) re I s'I cav alry. The main rebel army is at Frauktown, g 1-g miles off. A small party bad appeared a short distance from the State line. Pennsylvania is not yet invaded. Jackson is reported to lie at Middletown with lg.ooo men, mostly cavalry. The Washington National Intelligencer says that Gen McClellan’s army has advanced as far as Damascus, 34 miles from Washington, and 4 miles from the Frederick county liue, and 1(5 miles from Frederick town. Rockville, Sept. 10—evening. roolesville, about 10 miles from here, Is the farthest point up the river that we occupy, but as to movements generally it would now be improper to speak. No word has recently been received of Col. Miles, who has been occupying Harper's Fer ry. The impression is that lie has left that point by this time, as it would Is' impossible for him to hold that position while the enemy occupy Frederick, and may inarch upon Hag erstown, which is anticipated. No one seems to have any definite knowl edge of the numerical force now in Maryland. There is no rloulit tile enemy are throwing all their available force into Maryland. Five deserters from the g4tb N. C. regiment, arrived here to-day. They state that two of their brigades marched directly from Rich mond to Frederick. The supply trains of the rebels continue to cross into Marylaud, but none are known to return. Our troops advanced tins morning. 50,000 Troops called for from Pennsylvania. Expected Raid on Chamberaburg. Jackson's Army on the Move. 5000 Cavalry at Newmarket. Haiihisbi-ro, Sept. 11. The following order lias just beeu issued by authority of the President: Filly thousand of the freemen of Pennsyl vania are hereby called for immediate service to repel the now imminent danger from inva sion by toe enemies of the country. Officers in command of company organizations, as au thorized by General Order No. 33, w ill at once rc|Kirt by telegraph the place of their head quarters, so that orders may lie issued from these head-quarters for transportation to Har risburg for such companies as may be ordered to move. Further calls will be made for addi tional forces as the exigencies of the service may require. The formation of companies under the general orders should continue to be made as rapidly as (Kissihle, until all able hod ied loyal men of Pennsylvania are enrolled and ready for service. By order of GOV. Cl'KTIN. i i.iu.1 air ciuuiuiiiicu iui uir p>.uny ui 1 njiu Palmer and tlie troops of mounted scouts who, when last heard from, were in the neigh borhood of Hagerstown, procuring informa tion of the enemy's movements. Hagerstown is now occupied by a large force of rebel cavalry. They w ere in posses sion of the telegraph office, and had com menced tearing up the track of tlie Franklin Railroad. A cavalry raid is expected atCliambersburg, and many citizens are preparing to leave.— Force enough it is expected will he there to check any such movement. General Reynolds, of the Pennsylvania re serve corps,is expected to arrive here to-night to assume active command of all forces lor the defence of the valley and Harrisburg. Midnight.—A scout from Frederick says he was ill Frederick yesterday, and that the re liefs broke up encampment at half past one that morning, ami marched in tlie direction ol' Hagerstown, Stonewall Jackson leading. He saw them marching from their numerous cu campments from 5 A. M. till tl P. M.. the time lie left Frederick. They were principally in lantry and artillery, the latter numbering over 300 pieces, some of which were very large.—* Gens. Robert E. Leo, Jackson, Cobb, and oth er generals were present. He saw, as he sup* posed, 5000 cavalay near Xew Market, which had not left camp. War Meeting. Toledo, Sept. 11. At tlie commercial war meeting, Gen. Wall bridge, by invitation of the Board of Trade, delivered this evening an address on commerce and the reliellion. Mathew Brown, Presiden of the Board of Trade, presided. Gen. Wall bridge adverted to the fact that on tlie ver; •sjHit where they were then assembled, he had under the authority of the State, some years ago held an encampment and enrolle the militia of the district, when volunteer were called for in the war w ith Mexico, an he said that on enquiry he had found the nearly all now living who had taken pai with him then, had gone to the war, ami wer now engaged in quelling tlie rebellion and n storing tlie Constitution. There was an in mensc attendance, and the enthusiasm wa never surpassed here. Political. Milwaukee, Sept. 11. John F. Potter was unanimously nominate I for re-eleclioii to Congress at tlie Cougressioi al Convention for the First District Racine to day. Our Army to act on the Defensive. McDowell requests a Court Martial. HIS LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT. Washington, Sept. 11. Tlie following prisoners o! state were bro't to the Provost Marshal's otliee tills morning and sent to tlie old Capitol prison: S. If. Piles, W. U. Howard, K. T. Tnrtsjx and K. N. Gott. They were residents of Upper Maryland, and were sent in by tlie Provost Marshal General of tlie army of Virginia. Tlie rcliel soldiers captured at Vienna, were also sent to tlie old Capitol this morning. About noon tlie steamer S. R. Spaulding ar rived, having on board between 300 and 400 convalescents from tlie U. S. general hospital at Portsmouth Grove, It. 1. Correspondence of the Associated Press—A more cheerful spirit prevails in Washington. Tlie apprehension of danger to tlie Capital seems to have passed in view of the military movements to foil the supposed intentions of the reliels. The general impression to-day is, that invasion of Maryland is lor food mid other supplies, ami not for a general raid into the State ol Pennsylvania. It is not supposed that our army will seek tlie enemy to tight him upon his own field, but coniine itself more especially to the defence of Washington, while it is menaced in force with in cannon soui.d from the Capitol. Nothing however is known witli certainty as to what the reliels design, this being a mere matter of conjecture. All the weaker points open to the Capitol are now sufficiently strengthened to re-assure us of our safety. Maj. Gen. Ranks is rapidly recovering from tlie injuries heretofore received, and is stop ping witli Gov. Roiitwell. He is at headquar ters to-day attending to business. There is less excitement now about the pub lic departments than perhaps at any former period since tlie war commenced. The city has nearly been cleared of all the stragglers, including not a few of the lower grades. Acting Master T. Lewis and Aeting Master's Mate Tims. O'Connor, having failed to report in obedience to orders, liave been drop|>ed from tlie rolls of tlie service. Washington, Sept 0,1802. To His Excellency the President: 1 have been inlorincd by a (senator that he lias seen a note in |>encil. written by a Colonel of cavalry, mortally wounded in tlie recent battle, stating, among other causes, that he was dying, a victim to McDowell's treachery, and that his last request was that this note might lie shown to you. That tlie Colonel be lieved this charge and felt that his last act on earth was a great putlic service, there can be, a tiiiiiiv, ii«s ijin .'iiuii. This solemn accusation from the grave of a gallant officer who died for his country, is en titled to great consideration; and 1 feel called upon to endeavor to meet it as well as so gen eral a charge, from one now no longer able to sup|>ort it, can lie met. I therefore beg you to please cause a court to be instituted for its investigation, and in the absence of any knowlcde whatever as to the particular act or acts, time or place, or general conduct, the deceased inay have had in view. I have to ask that the enquiry be. without lim itation, and be upon any |H>int and every sub Ject which may in any way be supposed to have led to his belief, that it may Is1 dire ted to my whole conduct a« a General officer, either under another or while in aseperate command, whether on matters of administration or com mand, to my correspondence with any of the enemy’s commanders or with any one within the enemy’s lines, to my conduct and the |>oli cy pursued by me towards the Inhabitants of the country occupied by our troops, with refer ence to themselves or their property; and fur ther. to any imputations of indirect treachery or disloyalty towards tlie nation or any indi vidual having, like myself, an important trust, whether 1 have or have not been liiithlul as a subordinate to those placed over me, giving them heartily, to the best of my capacity, all tlie support in my power, and whether 1 have or have not failed, through unworthy personal motives, to go to tlie aid of or send reinforce ments to my alleged brother commanders, that this subject of my alleged treachery or disloy alty may lie fully inquired into. I lieg that all officers, smdiers or civilians, who know or think they know of any act of mine liable tri Hie eliarge in question, tie allow ed and invited to make it known to the court. 1 also beg that proceedings of the court may be open to tlie press IVoin day to day. 1 have the honor to be, very respectfully, your most obedient servant.

It Is generally expected 'that a fight will coma off to-day, but so lar only skirmishing has taken place. The rebels are reported in force at Latonia Springs, about seven miles from Covington. Our forces are very large, and the city is considered safe. There was picket skirmishing along the en tire line of the West Licking river tilts P. M. We lost two killed.

Rebel Proclamation in a Loyal State. Bai.timore, Sept 11. Gen. Lee lias issued the following proclama tion; Lin’s II EAiiqr ARTE its, i Army of Northern Virginia, Near Fredericktown, Sept. 8. To the people of Maryland:—It is right that you should know the purpose that has brought the army under my command within the limits of your State, so far as that purpose concerns yourselves. The people or the confederate .States have long watched with the deepest sympathy, the wrongs and outrages that have lieen indicted upon the citizens of the com monwealth allied to the Slates of the South by tile strongest social, political and commer cial ties, and reduced to the condition of a conquered province. Under the pretence of supporting the constitution. Imt in violation of its most valuable provisions, your citizens have beeu arrested and imprisoned upon no charge, and contrary to all forms of law. A faithful and manly protest against litis outrage, made by a venerable and illustrious Maryland er, to whom in better days no citizen appealed for right iu vain, was treated w ith scorn ami contempt The government of your chief city has been usurped by armed strangers;— your legislature lias lawn dissolved by the un lawful arrest of its members; freedom of press and of speech have been suppressed; words have been declared odeuses by an arbitrary decree of the federal executive, and citizens ordered to be tried by military commissions for what they may dan- s|wak. Believing that tile people of Maryland possess a spirit too lofty to submit to such a government, the people of the South have long wished to aid you iu throwing off this foreign yoke, to en able you again to enjoy the inalienable rights of free men, aud to restore the independence and sovereignty of your State. In obedience to tliis wish our army has come among you, and is prepared to assist you with its arms in regaining the rights of which you have Iwen so unjustly despoiled. This, citizens of Mary land. is our mission so far as you are concern ed. No restraint upon your free w ill is intend ed. No Intimidation will lie allowed within the limits of this army, at least Marylanders shall once more enjoy their ancient freedom of thought and speech. We know no enemies among you, and will protect all of you iu every opinion. It is for you to decide your destiny, freely and without constraint. Tills army will respect your choice, w hatever it may lie, and while the Southern people will rejoice to welcome you to your natural posi tion among them, they will only welcome you when you come of your own free w jll.

MISCELLANY. Adventure with a Boa Constrictor. One of the most thrilling incidents which has ever come to our knowledge, occurred a few days since in a “side show" with Van Am bugh i. Co.’s Menagerie, where two enormous snakes—an anaconda ami a boa constrictor— are on exhibition. Both of the huge reptiles are kept in one case with a glass top, opening at the side, and the keeper was engaged in the act of feeding them when the event occurred. The larger of the snakes, the Imiu const rictor, which is some thirty feet Ions, and as large around the middle as a man’s thigh, had just swallowed two rabbits, when the keeper intro duced his arm and body into the cage for the purpose of reaching a third to the anaconda, at the opposite corner. While in tills position the boa,not satisfied witli his portion of the ra tions. made a spring, probably with the inten tion of securing the remaining rabbit, hut, in stead, fastened his jaws upon the keeper's hand, and, with the rapidity of lightning threw three coils around the poor fellow,tints render ing him entirely helpless. His shouts of dis tress at once brought several men to his as sistance, and among them, fortunately, was a well known showmun named Townsend,a man of great muscular power, and what was of much more importance, one who had been fa miliar with the habits of these repulsive mon sters all his life, having owned some of the large st ones ever brought to this country. The situation of the keeper was now peril ous in the extreme. The first thing to be done was to uncoil the snake from around him; but if, in attempting this, the reptile should become in the least degree angered, he would, in a second, contract liis coils with a power suffi cient to crush the life out of au ox. A single quick convulsion of the creature, and the keeper's soul would be in eternity. This Townsend fully understood; so without at tempting to disturb the boa’s hold upon the keeper’s hand, be managed by a powerful, yet ex'tremely cautious movement, to uncoil the snake without exciting him; after which, by the united exertions of two strong men, the jaws were pried open, and the mail released in a completely exhausted condition. The bite of the boa constrictor is not poisonous, and al though tile bitten hand was immensely swoll en the next day, no serious results were appre hended. A more narrow escauc from a most horrible death, it would be difficult to imag ine. A manufacturer and vender of quack medi cines once wrote to a friend for a strong re commendation of his (the manufacturer’s) “Bal sam.” In a few days he received the follow ing, which we call pretty strong:—“Dear Sir—The land composing tills farm has hith erto been so poor that a Scotchman could not get a living oif it, and so stony that we had to ____a —l_t .u_ ...i_:_ but hearing of your balsam, I put some on the corner of a ten acre field surrounded by a rail fence, and in the morning 1 found that the rocks had entirely disappeared, a neat stone wall encircled the field, and the rails were split into firewood and piled symmetrically in my back-yard. I put half an ounce in the middle of a hueklelierry swamp—and in two days it was cleared off, planted with corn and pump kins, and a row of |>each trees in full blossom through the middle. As an evidence of its tre mendous strength, I would say that it drew a striking likeness of my eldest son, drew my second son out of the mill-pond, drew a blister all over his stomach—drew off a load of pota toes four miles to market, and eventually drew a prize of ninety dollars in the lottery.” A little urchin some two or three years old, being at a little distance from the house, was suddenly startled by a clap of thunder, lie was very much frightened, and made rapid tracks towards the house. But as the shed was the nearest shelter, he entered it. and east ing a defiant look at the dark clouds, exclaim ed: “Tilunder away! I'm under the shed!"— How much better wax “Ajax defying the light ning,” than this Phntognipliic Goods hi mii nls.

In compliance with the provisions of said Act and instructions of the Commissioner of Internal Revenue, I hare divided said District into eleven divisions, aud appoint an Assistant Assessor in each, as follows: The 1st division comprises the towns of York, Wells, Kcnnehnnk, Konuebunkport, and the city of Biddelord; Joseph Braodon, Jr., of York, Assist ant. 2d division, the towns of Kitterv, Eliot, South Berwick, Berwick nd North Berwick; Theodore A.

The act under w tiich those assistants are appoiuted took effect on the 1st day of 8epteinber instant. Citizens residing in tne large business centres of this district have doubtless read it, and can hence form their own conclusions in relation to its provis ions; but as there are many in the agricultural sec tions who may have been unable to obtain a copy for examination, 1 wish to call theirNttcntion to some of its principles. Soon after the rebellion broke out, Congress found it necessary to assess a small direct tax on the sever al Stales, to maintain the credit of the country. The 8tates being authorized to assume the payment of the sum demanded of them, had tho power to assess it upon all the property within their limits. Farms and other real estate Iteing, from their na ture, more exposed than other objects of taxation, would suffer severely from the constant draft for money, created in sustaining the government during this war, and they could not long endure the burden a direct tax would impose upon them. Maine’s proportion of that tax has beeu liquidated and paid. In order to provide in part for the future expenses of the war, Congress wisely determined to raise money from the people without State interven tion, and without taxing the producing c asses. To effect this object, and to make the tax equal in every State, they have passed what has beeu termed an Ex cise Act. Passing by the farmer, the mechanic, the fisherman, the luinlwrman, aud many other pursuits levies its light contributions upon toe wetlth, the luxuries, the pleasure*, and business of the country. It confines its operations chiefly to the cities, tow ns and villages, and gathers its revenues from the chan nels in which floats the money of the country. It 3 [Middle Street, JOSIAH BURLEIGH.
