COMMUNICATIONS. The .Maine' Fifth—.From the Chickahonm. ny to Anlietam. Camp Maine fifth Regiment, near Hagerstown, Md.. Sept. 27, 18(52. J EnrroRH Press:—Perhaps a few words from, the old “Filth Maine,” will not be unac ceptable to your readers, at this time. In _ brief, therefore, I propose to give you a resume of our recent operations. Alter a six weeks sojourn upon the bills of Western Va., aptly and truly denominated by a Richmond paper, as being the “hottest place out of tophet,” we were only too glad to get once more into a healthy breathing place, through the long and tedious march to Newport News. Here we embarked for Alexandria, in the old steamer “John Urooks,” whereon we languished so long last April, in the waters of “Shipping Point” harbor, awaiting the fall of Yorktown. Alas! how solemn the thought that many of our com rades, then in ail the hope and pride of vigor ous manhood, now lay low in death amid the swamps of the Chickahominy \—some stricken down by disease, and others dying gloriously upou the battle-fluid, while others still are ly ing on lieds of anguish in their XorUiem homes, made cripples tor litis—• fittc, in some instan ces, worse than death. Such is war! Lauding at Alexandria, we marched to our old quarters at Fort Lyon, the fruit ol our ear ly handiwork with the spade and pick. Here wc had scarcely time to gather breath lwfore our ears were saluted with the order—“Pack up and be ready to march in half an hour.” This was a great disappointment to our weary and footsore men, who had anticipated a few days rest, but there was no help for it; and cheerfully we went out way over the already thrice-travelled road to Centreville. The friends of Gen. Po|ie have blamed Gen. Frank lin for not sooner coming to the support of the former, but I am inclined to believe with but little justice. Had we been hurried forward at the “double-quick,” as was the ca«e at the Bull Run of 'til, it is extremely doubtful if the result had not been equally disastrous. As 11 was, aim i nave not seen me met announced in any paper, probably because our corps d' ar mee employs no newspaper correspondent to write it into notoriety, we arrived in time to check a panic which, had it been allowed to augment, must have resulted in untold disas ter. Our brigade under the lead of the gallant Col. Bartlett, was in the advance, and just as the last rays of the setting sun were fading from the western sky, we crossed “Cub Kun'” and advancing about half way to Bull Kun creek, we flled^off to the right into a field, and forming in line of battle, stacked arms and threw our weary bodies on the ground for a few minutes’ rest. At this time, the cannonad ing had nearly ceased, and all accounts Irom the front were of au encouraging nature, as ail along the route we met couriers who an nounced we were gaining a great victory. But we bad scarcely got stretched upon the ground when an officer rode furiously up to our brig ade, shouting in an excited tone—“Fall in! tlie reliel cavalry are upon us P’ In a twink ling almost, every man was at his post. And now commenced a scene which I hope never to witness again. Against our brigade, now formed in square to repel cavalry, came on a mob of stragglers, cavalry, infantry aud artil lery men, In squads, companies, and parts of regiments, officers mixed up indiscriminately with the men, all fleeing at their greatest speed before an imagined pursuing foe. As they reached our solid qplutnns, they broke to the right and left, and many sped on, ainid the scoffs and anathemas of our men, and did not stop till they got to Centreville, while, others, seeing our firm ranks,recovered from their pan ic and formed again in our rear. It was Indeed a disgraceful sight to see men and officers,run ning before a foe not yet in sight, throwing away their guns and swords, in their frantic haste to get away. It is said this panic was the result of a daring advance of a section of rebel light battery upon our center, after Mc Dowell’s line had been forced, and his men were in full retreat. This battery threw a few shells into a hospital, around which a crowd of stragglers and teamsters had gathered, and thus created the skedaddle, and came very near turning the disorderly retreat of McDow ell’s corps into aperfect stampede, which must have ended in the capture of all of our artillery and trains. Our brigade maintained its ground while the fatigued and war-worn veterans of Sigel and McDowell passed to the rear and took up a new position at Centreville; and then filing off to the left, our right was selected to go on picket, supported by Hexamer’s New Jersey battery. Ours was a ticklish jiosition, but we were not molested, and the next morning we drew back and recrossed “Cub Kun” just as the pioneers were destroying the bridge, being the last troops that passed over, and in full view of a rebel battery which came galloping up to give us a parting salute. I must not omit, in this connection, a little incident that occurred while the panic was at Its height Our Chaplain, the Kev. Mr. Ad ams, of Gorham, a good Christian, and a sound patriot, rode up along the front of our regi ment, and checking his horse, viewed, for a moment, the rushing crowd, and then, drawing himself up to his full height, and with kindling eye, he turned to us, and exclaimed, as he pointed the Anger of scorn at them,—"Look at them 1 look at them, boys! Oh shame! shame 1 shame!” The brave old chaplain 1 I could have hugged him then. The eflfect was elec tric, and it placed Itefore our men in its mean est light, the shameful cowardice there dis played. Major Kdwards, too, at this j uncture, acted with great coolness and judgment, as with encouraging words he rode along our ines, and ever and anon, would dash in among a crowd of skedaddlers, and compel them to either enter our ranks, or give up their mus kets to those of our men who were without them. With slow and steady tread wc kept on to Centreville, passing the 1st Maine Cavalry on the way. This regiment stands very high in the estimation of general and cavalry officers, aud many of the men are detailed as body guard to the various brigades of Banks’ corps. t.. r.t .i.i. is tit. t.1 11 K n IM1 J'l I'1> Oil VUI 1UU1I1L 1 imenU are popular iu the army. Constituting the rear of Pope's retreating ar my, we were not in the fight at Chantilly, when the brave and dashing Kearney, and the no less brave, but much misunderstood Stevens, met their death, but in death gave victory to our arms, and saved Pope from the consequences ot his long delay at Centreville. It was a dear bought victory. Next to McClellan no man enjoyed the confidence of our soldiers so much as Phillip Kearney; and Stevens, had he lived, would have made a reputation second to no man. Nothing of interest characterized our march back to Fairfax, and frpm thence to Fort Ly on again. At Fairfax we expected a linttle; but the enertry, after the Chantilly fight, be came shy; and besides, he had Ids eye on the rich vales of eastern Maryland, wherewith to recruit his starving legions. From Fort Ly on we went to Fairfax Seminary, near old Camp Franklin. Here we hoped to gain a lit tle rest, and recuperate our wasted energies. But no: the enemy were in Maryland, and McClellan had determined to punish his temer ity, now that he was in command once more. And down over Long bridge, through the streets of Washington, stopping just long enough to clteor our gallant chief, up the heights of Georgetown, aud along the dusty road to Rockville, sped our wearied troops.— Day after day, over suffocating roads, and un der a burning sun, our poor fellows pushed on. Now and then a poor fellow would fall ex hausted from the ranks, and be borne to a shady spot to await an ambulance, if indeed, he lived. This march was especially hard for the new regiments. But the enemy were rav aging Maryland, and “forward,” was the word. At length the spires of Frederick are in view, and the booming of distant cannon tells that Sumner is encased. AH fatigue is now forgot ten, aud every eye kindles and every check is aglow with excitement, as we move rapidly forward; but instead of going to Frederick, we turn to the left, and leatn that our destination is Harper's Ferry which is menaced by Jack son himself. But we arc not fated to get there in time to prevent the consummation of the foulest act of treachery the annals of warfare present. Our purpose is anticipated by the enemy, and Cobb's Legion and McGaw's Di vision of Arkansas aud South Carolina troops dispute the passage of Cratnpton Gap. Away to our right, at the Pass of South Mountain, we heard the roar of Burnside's cannon, telling of a des|>erate struggle, aud it is evident to Franklin that the rebels intend to hold these passes at all hazards. To reach IIar|H-r’s Fer ry it is necessary to possess this Gap, and up on that calm .Sabbath afternoon, Gen. Frauk liu calls a council of his Generals to decide as to the best means to attain this en£ It is finally determined, at the request of that Gen eral, that Major Gen. Slocum’s Division shall storm the pass at the point of the bayonet, as our artillery can do nothing with that of the enemy, so advantageously jiosted on the side of the mountain. It was done—gloriously done; and when the full particulars of the achievement arc known, it will be universally acknowledged as the most brilliant tight of the war. Our brigade was selected to open the ball, to be followed by the gallant Jersey brig ade, and that in turn by Newton’s brigade, j The 27th N. Y., 5th Maine, Kith N. Y, and j 90th Penn., constitute our brigade, command ed by Col. Bartlett, as brave an oftieer as ever drew sword. The 27th was sent lorward as skirmishers, and the 6th Maine on the left, and and the 14th N. Y. on the right, constituted 1 the first line of battle, witli the 9Glh as a re serve. In this order, we commenced the fight, advancing in the face of a furious cannonade, through corii-tleids and over fences, never once flinching or losing our line, although many I slid is burst directly over us, wounding a few, until we got up with the skirmishers now hot ly engaged with the enemy. Immediately the “butternuts” came in view, crouched behind a I stonewall and sheltered by the thick growth of wood oil the mountain side. We gave them a volley of musketry from right to left. For over an hour was this lire kept up, the enemy replying with vigor, and many of our boys were carried to the rear. At last our ammu j nitlon gave out, but just at this critical mo ment the Jersey boys came on nt a charge, and such a cheer as our powder-stained boys i gave them must have struck terror to the hearts of the rebels. Retiring a few paces to the brow of a slight declivity which afforded a slight protection I from the solid shot of the enemy's cannon, we waited the arrival of ammunition; but Gen. Newton, who was in immediate command, de termined to make a general advance of the whole line, with the bayonet, and up we got, amid the whistling shot, ami at the order “charge bayonets!” we went forward with a shout over our first line of battle, and after tlie Jerseys, who were already on the ground occupied by the enemy. But before we could get half way across the plowed Held separa ting us from the enemy in the woods, an aid rode up and ordered us to halt, and marched us by “the right flank” to another portion of the Held. Then Col. Bartlett rode up, and or dered us hack a little distance for rest, stating that we had done our share of the fighting, and as the enemy were in full retreat, we were no longer ueeded. By this time, too, the fir I ing hail nearly ceased, and the cheers of the gallant Jerseys could be heard high up the mountain side. The gathering darkness alone stayed the pursuit. The ictory was complete Our loss in this fight was .33 killed and wounded; our whole division loss will not ex ceed 300 killed, while that of the enemy is nearly double. We also took 1.100 prisoners, among them the commander of the Georgia legion, also several pieces of cannon. Our men behaved nobly in this fight, seemingly indifferent to the shells that burst in rapid suc cession all around them. Col. Jackson and Lieut. Scammon were promptly on hand, at tending to the safety of their men, while Maj. Edwards was in the thickest of the fight, direct ing the fire and stimulating every one by his example. Capt. Bucknam, than whom no braver man breathes, was severely wounded in the shoulder. All the line officers did their duty nobly. [Concluded tomorrow.)

THE DAILY PRESS. PORTLAND, MAINK.

Friday Morning, Oct. 3, I8#'I. The Facts and Record of History denied —Foreign Intervention welcomed t When a man starts upon an inclined plane, nnd commences the descending grade, he does not always know where he will bring up. We thought in reading the leader in the Portland Advertiser of Tuesday, entitled “The next Step,” in which an appeal was made to the people to head off the president and “his most perverse advisers,” that it would lx; difficult for a man to go much lower towards rebellion, without stepping off soundings and becoming an out-and-out advocate of the schemes and purposes of Jeff. Davis. But when the paper of the. next morning came to hand, we found there was a “lower deep,” of the murkincss and treasonableness of whose atmosphere we had formed very faint conception. We ask the calm,candid and unbiased judgment of the reader to a lew extracts. The article referred to w as headed with this question: “What have the free States done for the negro, and What has the negro done for himself,during the rebellion 7” In reply to this question the new editor of that paper says: Upon a fair computation we think it w ill l>e found, that the free States have fought the reb el* until the number of white persons, who are utterly bankrupted in fortune, anil cast down from a state of affluence or competency, in the South, to a condition of hopeless poverty; and the number who have been killed in battle, or have died of disease or exposure, from the North and from the South; aud the number of both, who have been crippled and maimed in body, or limb, or in health, so as to lx; use less (or future Industry: all added together, will be found equal to the entire number, or aggregate, of negroes in slatery, throughout the elate Mates—say an aggregate of four mill ions at least. In other words, one white person has been bankrupted, or killed, nr ruined by wounds or disease, for life, since the rebellion, and war upon it, commenced, for every living and un banned nem o, about tthom the eontlict has been prosecuted A tearful sacrifice, indeed, FOR AS EXPERIMENTAL THEORY OF SOCIAL GOOD Here is a very distinct intimation tirnt the present war, with all its catalogue of suffering and misery, is being waged by the Federal Government only to benefit the negro,to estab lish “an experimental theory of social good!” But this intimation becomes an emphatic state ment in the following: One thousand millions of liquidated and un liquidated expenditures in dollars, have, more over, already liecn made by the free States; and more than five hundred millions more, by tile Smith; and the uncounted destruction of individual property at the South, not taken into the account of Government ex|>enditures, must equal five hundred millions more, at least; while a thousand millions of damage to foreign commerce and domestic trade may be added to the count of costs occasioned by the reladlion, and by the war of the Free States upon it. AND ALL FOK WHAT? For a difference of opinion, or of political and hu manitarian rietes, among the American peo ple, respecting the nature and rights of the negro race With this startling announcement in the ed itorial columns of the Advertiser,—that “ALL” the blood, the loss of life, the maimed limbs, the impaired constitutions, the bankrupt com munities, and the almost frightful expendi tures of treasure,—is simply for “a difference of opinion, or of political or humanitarian views respecting the nature and rights of the negro race,” yet at the head of the same editorial column we find emblazoned the unan imous declaration of the American Congress, “That the present deplorable cieil tcar has beeu FORCED upon the country by the dis unionisls of the Southern States.'' We also find blazoned iti Uie same column, approving ly placed there, the language of the Command ing General, that "We are engaged iu suit porting the Constitution and laws of the United States, and iti suppressing rebellion against their authority.” In the face of such historical records; in tile face of the authority of Benton and Ev erett,—that for thirty years this rebellion has beeu in progress in the minds and hearts of Southern statesmen; in Die luce of the fact that John C. Calhoun stated more than thirty years ago that the South would consent to the Union so long as they could control the gov ernment, but would separate from the North bo soon as their power to nde should depart from them; iu the lace of'lie fact that the present rebellion was precipitated upon the country oy political demagogues and men of unbridled ambition; iu the face of the fact that the South has ever regulated “the rights of the negro race” among themselves without let or hindrance, and that the North lias made no attempts to interfere with her iu this re gard,—in the face of all these things, the edi tor of the Advertiser insults the common in telligence of our people by declaring, that the war and all its dire concomitants, are all for a simple difference of opinion about the negro— to try an experiment of social good Having proved that the war don’t pay—that It is an expensive concern in all respects, yield ing no dividend of good, the writer says: The world cannot but look upon this con tinued conflict between the white men of this Republic, with feelings of amazement and hor ror. It is alike unnatural and unprofitable; and being without precedent in nature, or hu man events, no basis can be shadowed forth in the dim future, for its termination. Unable to answer his own ipiestion, put forth in emphatic italics, How, when, or upon what conditions can it [the war] la* ended," the writer comes to this conclusion: One conclusion must soon gather strength in the mind of every conservative man, and convert radicals, ere long, into conservatives; and it is, that the while men of the Union are sacrificing more for the freedom of the negro, than negro freedom can be worth to either the white man, or negro; and WHAT EVER INTERVENTION, and WHEREV ER COMING, cau serve to restore peace to the nation, or the nation to pence, will la* deemed an acceptable gill of Providence, and a God-send of immeasurable blessings to this, and all kindred nations. Have the loyul people of Maine ever Indore been treated to such doctrines in a journal of their own cherishing.dependent upon them for •tipport? With a seaci ast three hundred miles iu extent, exposed to the ravages of a foreign maratime foe; with four or live hundred miles of frontier, bordered by tin* territory of a pow erful foreign nation; with our goodly city, —once burned by the armed cruisers of an enemy—an eye-sore to the advisers of the lJritisli crown, which they would gladly find excuse to seize upon for the benefit of their colonial possessions; with all our peculiar exposure both as a State and as a city, we find those in our very midst, w ho are willing to welcome as “an acceptable gilt of Provi dence,” and “a God-send" to the nation, eren the Mentation qf liriHnh jaAcrr to stop the war in which we are engaged for our constitu tion, our laws, our cherished institutions, and our household gods! Intervention! no matter wliaj; though it come with red-hot thunder bolts, to burn and to destroy, to sack and to pillage! Intervention! no matter where from; whether from England, from France, or from both combined! Intervention! though it drive our constitutional President from the capital, and compel him to become a fugitive; though it place a usurper in the seat of power, and strike down the last veslage of that freedom for which our fathers bled; Lhougli it throw lie dark mantle of slavery over this fair land, and strangle Liberty in her clnwen temple; though the hopes of the down-trod'bn be blasted, the asylum for the oppres be de stroyed, nml the experiment of free govern ment become n failure, all, all would be “an acceptable gilt of Providence,” "aGod-scnd to the nation,” if the war for our altars and our fathers’ monuments can be silenced before its burning wrath shall take hold of and fuse the fetters now fastened upon the limits of the Southern slave! Anything—no matter what, or from wkercflr l»j trhom—to save the ebony idol which the Advertiser has set up for its worship and to receive its homage. (For the Daily Press.| The President's Proclamation. Washington, D. C. Sept. UH, 1850. This document took this city .as much by surprise as it died the country at large. And yet, it is what the thoroughly loyal men here, as well as all over the country, felt was a ne cessity forced on our President alike by our foreign relations, and our internal political condition. It has been known in well-inform ed private circles here, that something of the kind had been under consideration here for some time, hut it is believed that the determi nation to go to the extent that tin; proclama tion has gone, was readied only a very short time before its issue. The President as well understood as any one, that the truly loyal people of the country would lie satisfied with a proclamation ordering the officers of the ar my to obey and enlf the inevitable necessities of our condition, the time for which has fully coine. And even tlie most timid are coining to tlie same conclusion. We have quite a large class of shoulder strapped gentry here, who, in spite of tlie stringent orders oftlie War Department, con trive to loaf alioul our hotels, theatres ar.d other less reputable places, most of the time. They abound, especially when a battle is im pending, both here and in Alexandria. These fellows have been threatening Congress, ami the President with wrath, in concurrence with the New York Herald, for a year past. When Congress presumed to appoint a committee to inquire into the conduct of the war, these fel lows threatened to bring the army into Wash ington, and serve Congress, as Cromwell did the Long Parliament, if this committee pre sumed to make any damaging revelations of the doings of democratic generals. More re cently they re-echoed the treasonable demand of the Herald, for the installation of a military dictator, if the President presumed to do any thing distasteful to them. When the proc lamation made its appearance, there was some tall swearing among these traitors in uniform, and in Alexandria. Some of those whose dalli ances with female rebels had been most con spicuous, openly encouraged mutiny among their deluded followers in the ranks. Hut the unwholesome fearof a court-martial, and a Hie of soldiers with balded pieces, and black caps, soon put ail end to all open demonstrations. Still there can lx* no doubt, that these traitors will do all the mischief they deem consistent with their own personal safety—a thing with them, paramount to all other considerations. The proclamation of conditional emancipa tion has already accomplished much gcxxl. It reassured the confldence of the truly loyal men of the count! y. in the President, and inaugur ated a positive |xiliey which all men w ho nev er had tin* smell of treason in their garments* or tile thought of treason even in the most se cret recesses of their hearts, will heartily en dorse, while it will drive all llie moving, sniveling* whining and cowardly sympathiz ers with treason, either into the ranks of the truly loyal men of the country, or into those of open and undisguised treason and rebellion. To unmask tin* traitors is no small good. So long as they were permitted to conceal their treason under the cry of the “Constitution and the laws,” it was not easy to deal with them. Hut now tills cry w ill not save them, when they take open ground against the government,and the inforeement of Hie laws of the land. Calhoun long ago boasted that the Southern arisUicrats could always contrive to divide the North on some pretence or other, and thus they could gain their own purposes. The Northern aristocrats and demagogues are now trying to play this game to help their South ern Iriends, with whom they most cordially unite ill hating everything that has the pretix —"FUFF." That word “Free,” is equally hated by Northern pro-slavery men and south ern rebels, especially when it is a prolix to the word “L«6or.” Let white laborers mark this, or they may he reminded of it in shame and anguish. Ousekvkb. From our Regular Correspondent, la tter Ironi the State Capital. Court Martial—Correction—Appointments. Augusta, Oct. 2.1862. Editors Press:—A court martial is iu pro gress here; the case is this: lit paying some volunteers, Capt. Dana, of the 17th Regulars, insisted that the men should hold out their hats to receive the money, instead of their hands. One of them, Mr. Gates, refused to receive his pay in his hat, but extended his hand for the money, at first, but, on being again ordered to hold his hat, he did so, when Capt. Dana thrust his money Into it, whereup on Mr. Gates threw it on the floor. This was considered by Capt. Dana to lie of so grave a nature that he ordered the arrest of Mr. Gates for disrespect to an officer, and he has been confined in the jail here for three weeks, awaiting his trial. Able counsel have lieen engaged by Mr. Gates. There is a great difference of opinion in this community, as to whether the enormity of the charges against Mr. Gates exceeds that of the charges preferred against Gen. Stone, or those which some would like to have preferred against Gen. McDowell. The general impres sion here is, however, that they do. Chas. \V. Tilden, not Charles W.

I have faith, Sir. in the final issue of this great contest, faith in its mission of good to us as a people. I believe that bv the sword and the sword alone, by valor and the shedding of blood will the enemies of American liberty he vanquished, and the supremacy of constitu tional rule established once more within all our borders.

Merrill, of Portland, lias been promoted from Orderly Sergeant to 2d Lieutenant, of the Maine 6th Battery vice Lieut. Fred Morton, resigned. Z&™ The citizens in one of our up-town streets Wednesday night were alarmed by the shouts of murder, ami ran out of their houses to see what was the matter. It turned out to be a freak of a drunken man. A patent lias lieen granted to Augus tine B. Crosby of Greene, Maine, and Jesse Ladd of Boston, Mass., for improved machine for collecting and amalgamating flue particles of gold. Accident.—A lad was knocked down and run over yesterday in Daiilbrtli street, by a horse attached to a buggy wagon. The occu pants of tlie wagon stoppl'd to assist the lad and take him borne, but lie jumped up and ran away from them as though he had been guilty of something wrong. It was Miss Louise Andrews, daughter of Mr. E. C. Andrews, not Miss Adams as we had it yesterday, who presented the beautiful wild flowers at the Horticultural exhibition. Tlie Iteauty of these wild native flowers, and tlie exceeding good taste in which they were arranged, attracted tlie atteution of all visitors. Sale of Pianos.—Messrs. Henry Bailey A Co. sold at auction, yesterday, twelve piano fortes, of the manufacture of Albert W. Ladd Co., Boston. The instruments were new and in good order. They brought the follow ing prices: *170, *182,50, *20.5, *180, $200, $285, *175, *240, *135, *200, *105 and *315. The terms of the sale were cash. Cabelkbs Driving.—A man driving a four wheeled chaise yesterday on Oxford St., came ill contact with a horse and wagon oc cupied by two ladies. Tlie concussion, witiiout upsetting the wagon, threw out one of the ladies, and she sustained some serious bruises. The man, with whom was tlie fault of tlie col lision, drove off without stopping to enquire if the Indy was much Injured. He did not lie long in the city, as we were informed. The Stereopticon.—The pleasing and in structive exhibition of the Stereopticon opened last evening at Lancaster Hall. In conse cjuence 01 the imlavorablc condition of tlie weather and the dampness of the streets, the proprietor decided not to exhibit, but so large number of ladies and gentleman came to the Ifall that he was induced to change his pur pose. A second exhibition, with entire change of programme, this evening. M A N U FACTUIIEKS OF LUMBER, FLOUR AND Meai..—Mr. Marshall the assessor for this Collection District has decided that man ufacturers of Lumber from logs, and Flour and Meal from Grain and Corn to an amount exceeding $1000, are liable to take a license as manufacturers, but are not required to make monthly returns, as these articles are exempt from duty; neither are they liable to take a license for the sale of such manufactures, if sold at the place of manufacture. Ordination Service To-Day.—We un derstand that our young townsman, Mr. Ed ward B. Furbish is to lie ordained a« an Evan gelist, with a view to accepting the Chaplaincy of the 25th regiment. The services will be held at High Street Church this afternoon, at two and a half o’clock. Only the gallerii*s will be open till the regiment lias passed in. A meeting at the Council liir examination and preliminary proceedings will be held In the basement of the church, at 10 o’clock, A. M. Have you Taken out a License Traders, Manufacturers and others who are liable, uuder the Excise Law of the United States, approved July 1st, 1S62, to take out a License, ami have uot already complied with the law, are now liable to the penalty as pro vided in sec. 50 of said law, which imjKisses a penalty equal to three times the amount of the license. We leam, however, that Mr. Mar shall, the assessor for this District, lias extend ed tlie time to and including the Ttli of this mouth. All liable to a license tax should call at once at the assessors office in tlie new city building, (upstairs.) H^Thomas Dennis of Georgetown, master of a fishing vessel, reported at the Police office yesterday, that he went into a confectionary store, made some purchases, then took out his wallet and laid it down, paid for the arti j uio mi uuu av.it> for his vessel. Arriving on board he discover ed the loss of his wallet and went back to the store, but nothing could be found of it. lfe said it contained about $700. There were four $100 bills of the International Hank, about $150 in bills of the Casco Hank, and the re mainder were in different kinds of bills. He said only about $50 of the money belonged to him. The IIohtk i'i,TrK.vL Exhibition.—The exhibition of the Horticultural Society closed last evening. It is the most successful one the society has ever held, both In regard to the fruits, flowers, Ac. exhibited, and the number of visitors to it. The articles were yesterday removed into the large hall, where they made a fine show. Hut the unpleasant weather pre vented a very numerous attendance of visitors. Still the la:ge attendance at this exhibition is an evidence that our people begin to realize the importance of this Association. It is one of Uie most active means for the promotion of the cultivation of the best fruits and vegeta bles that could be desired. We have before stated that the profits of this exhibition would lx: given to the Ladies’ Sanitary Committee. One of the gentlemen who exhibited fruit at the exhibition, and who lias been awarded a premium, has given that up for the same purpose, and he suggests that all those to whom premiums may be awarded should donate them to the Ladies’ Committee. It is a capital suggestion, and more especially just at this time, when the treasury of the Ladies’ is about empty, and the calls are press ing for articles of comfort for our sick and wounded soldiers. Fhom Washington.—The correspondent of the New York Post says the treasury al ready begins to feel the operation of the new tax law. The coffers already contain revenues obtained under the new tax bill. Half a mil lion of dollars have been received. It is be lieved that the Increasing revenues of the gov ernment cannot fuil to strengthen government securities, and to diminish the almost frightful premium upon gold. The writer also says: “The emancipation proclamation is received very well in Western Virginia, and in the |>or tiou of Virginia near this city. A number of men in Alexandria and Loudon counties, who have inclined to secession sentiments hereto fore, since the invasion of Maryland and the proclamation of emauei|Hitioii, have come out decided men. One of the substantial Virginia larniers was in town yesterday, and lie made the remark upon the. proclamation that at last tin: government had put its heel on the sore spot of the rebellion, adding: ‘Now that slav ery is to I>- t port. A just regard for these brav^uen whom we have contributed to place In fll field, and for tlie importance of the duties which may lawful ly pertain to us hereafter, has called us into friendly conference; amt now presenting to our national Chief Magistrate this conclu sion of our deliberations, we devote ourselves to out country’s service, and we will surround i the President in our constant support, trust- iug that tin1 fidelity ami real of tlie loyal States j flllil lu-ntili- U-ill nlti'oi'u nuaneo lii*» ..-'ill i be constantly maintained in pursuing with vigor this war for the preservation of the na- j tiounl life and the hopes of humanity.

Governor Morgan issued a general order authorizing the recruiting of nine months men until the order lor drafting is issued. The recruits will lie formed into companies only to lie used to till up regiments in tlie field.

IlKAliqrAKTKItH AltMT OF I’oTOM AC, I Octolier 2. 1 President Lincoln arrived at Harper's Kerry on a special train from Washington, yesterday afternoon. He was met by Maj. Kip and Capt.

Sunnier and a brilliant caval cade, composed of division and brigade Gens, with the members of their staffs, proceeded to review (fen. Sumner's splendid army corps on Bolivar Heights. The troops presented a tine appearance., and greeted the President and Gen. McClellan with great enthusiasm. The President also visited the ruins of the railroad bridge and government buildings at Harper's Kerry, when he returned to Bolivar and passed the night with (fen. Sumner. This morning, the President, accompanied by Gen. Sumner and other Generals, visited the troops on Condon and Maryland Heights, and rode over the ground where our troo|is surrendered. At noon lie lelt Harper’s Kerry and rode over to (fen. McClellan’s headquar ters. During the afternoon Gen.

Hindman under arrest. Springfield, Mo., Oct. 2. A liiglily responsible and reliable gentleman who hits enjoyed advantageous opportunities for ascertaining the number anil locations of the rebel forces menacing our Southern bor ders, and who lias been in some of their camps within ten days, represents that in Newton county, live miles South of Granby, there are forty-tlve hundred rebels under command of Collee and Shelby. Seven miles West of Neosho in the same county, are seven thousand under command of Gen. Cooper, brother of the Adjutant General of the rebel army. Half of tills number under Cooper are Indians, all well armed. At Pea Ridge. Gen. Itains has 4,500 and Gen. Carroll 2,000. South of For syth, just over the Arkansas line, Gea. Pas.-ons lues 8,000 near Parsons toward the Kast is Gen. McBride with about 8,000; at Little Itoek Gen. Holmes lias 17,000. The above force shows an aggregate force of 40,000 rebels; of this, 3,1X10 are either within the boundaries of Missouri, or in its Southern lines. The whole force is under command of (ten. Holmes. The rebels in all the camps indulge coUdent expectations of wintering in St. Louis, and entertaining not a shadow of doubt of their ability to do so. The conscript act of the Confederate Stales is in full force in Newton ami McDonald coun ties. All citizens of the reipiisite age are seized and compelled to cuter tile rebel service or leave the county. Many prominent citizens of these counties have lied to avoid the con scription. Gen. Hindman is under arrest arising from a misunihu*landing lietwceu himself ami Pike, the cause of which is unknown. A Series of Skirmishes. Arrival of General Morgan at the Ohio River. Storekeepers compelled to receive Confederate Scrip. Louisville, Oct 2. The Journal is informed of a sharp skirm ish last night between Gen. Sill's advance and 2.1 aXJ reliel cavalry, at Floyd's Fork, the enemy being posted on the surrounding hills. We n pulsed them, but they returned. We then brought our artillery against them, wheu they again lied. We captured in an old iiouse in that vicinity, forty thousand rounds of ammunition. Heavy artillery tiring was heard on the Shelbyville road, sixteen miles distant, at ninu this morning. Result unknown. The Journal also says a skirmish occurred this morning, tlve miles distant, on the Bards town road. The rebels were repulsed. Their loss is unknown. Our loss was twenty-live in killed and wounded. Cannonading lias been heard near Mount Washington, in the vicinity of Salt River. Gen. G. W. Morgan, with his whole force from Cumberland Gap, has reached the Ohio river opposite Portsmouth. The rebel- evacuated Shelbyville last night, me BWIWTJH.TS LO ICC Cl VC Confederate scrip for what they wanted. At Paris, Ky., all the storekeepers except two se ce>h. sent their goods away. The rebels pro cured of the two a supply of blankets, paying in confederate script. The blankets giving out, they insisted cutting up the storekeepers' car pets for blanketing. The secesh storekeepers declined receiving confederate script for the carpets, when they were arrested and put in jail for discrediting confederate script. We learn that Kirby Smith levs been play ing the same game upon several seeesh store keepers at Lexington. Rebel Army in Kentucky. New Yoke, Oct. 2. From the Louisville Journal received by mail.—A gentleman who lias opportunities to possess information as to the movements of the army in Kentucky, informs us that the whole number of confederate troops in the State is 78,000 men all told, including 9,000 re- emits who have joined them since they enter ed the State; two thousand of the latter have deserted.

From being rigiil con structionists, they have become the advocates of mere power; and it is reported very cur rently that a scheme of consolidation is on foot, and that views precisely such as those which Alexander Hamilton succeeded In dis seminating so widely and rendering so popu lar and potential in the old Union, are exten sively held in the South; tiiat the Confederate Government is to Ik; assimilated to that of (Jreat Britain; that an aristocracy is to lie es tablished, and wealth made in the Ix-giuning tlie passport to place and power. But the Whig warns statesmen and others against the consequences of this design. It says: “The whole body of the Southern people arc an aristocracy, and no community is more jealous for an absolute equality of rights and privileges than a community of aristocrats. The attempt to degrade such a community, and to establish a privileged class over its head. M ill he Certain ruin to those who make it. It is a scheme which M ill suddenly and ig nominiously fall as soon as discovered, and which M ill involve its foolish projectors in utter ruin. It Cfllllfl not snccf-nd in tin* South l-V.-ll if tlie judiciary were silenced by martial law, the press overthrown, and every safeguard of civil liberty broken down. The people, im pelled by that same spirit in which they have met and overthrown the power of the public enemy, would turn upon the pigmies at home and annihilate them with a breath.” From Pensacola.—A Pensacola letter of Sept. 90th, in the Philadelphia Press, reports that quite a fleet is collecting there, awaiting the arrival of iron-clads In order to attack Mobile.

Gross, of New Gloucester Assistant. lith division, the towns of Freeport, Brunswick Harps well, Pownal and Yarmouth; Hezekiau B Means, of Freeport., Assistant. The act under which these assistants are appointed took effect on the 1st dav of September instant Citizens residing in the 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 aro many in the agricultural sec tions who may have bocii unable to obtain a copy for examination, I wish to call their attention to some of its principles. boon after the rebellion broke out. Congress found it necessary to assess a small direct tax on the sever al Mates, to maintain the credit of the country. The Mates being authorized to assume the pavmerit of the sum deinand«*d of them, had the power to assess it upon all the property within their limits. Farms and other real estate being, from their na ture, more exposed than other objects of taxation, would sutler severely from the constant draft for money, created in sustaining the government during this war. and they could not long endure the Lturdeu a direct tax would impose upon them. Maine’s proportion «.f that tax has been 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 »s,ual in every State, they have passed what lias been termed an Ex cise Act. Passing by the farmer, the mechanic, the fisherman, the lumberman, and many other pursuits essential to our pros|»erity as a people, this act levies its light contributions' upon the wealth, the I luxuries, the pleasures, and business of the country. It confines its operations chiefly to the cities, towns aim Mimi'o, an*i garner* It* revenue? from the chan nel* In which float* the money of the country. It docs not tax real e-tatc of any description, nor with a very few exception*, personal property. Tin* excess eve.* 40 ounces of silver spoons or plate, and riding carriages of all descriptions, valued w ith the harness at 876 and upwards, must Ik* assessed. With the exception of these two items, there is not prob ably a farmer nor a mechanic iu this district, within tlw act. These are taxed at a sum so inconsiderable that it is to be hoped every citizen who desire* the perpetuity of Ids government will, in this terrible cri sis of its affairs, assume cheerfully his proportion of it* necessary burdens, and if he is fortuuately tlie owner of an article liable to bo assessed, put a'valnc upon it which shall bring it within the act. It mav bo the only opportunity he will ever have to contri bute a dollar for the preservation of hi* government. The professional man the retail trader whose sale* exceed one thousand dollar* per vear—the man ufacturer of any article the sale* of which exceed six hundred dollar* por year—the hotel keeper—the man whose yearly income exceeds six hundicd dol lars. and several other employments are to In* assessed. It is presumed all such are conversant with the pro vision* of this act. 1 would call their attention to .section* from six to eleven, inclusive, and section IFfty-eight. The-e sections impose l Ik* duty upon every person liable to be assessed lor n tax or license, to call imme diately upon tlie assistant assessor and make up and sign their several assessment*. If they neglect so to do, he I* required to increase their tax fifty per cent., and no discretionary authority Is vested iu the assis tant or the assessor to make any abatement of this amount. Bee section 11. It will be perceived by a careful examination of these sections, that Cuugre**, relying upon the patri otism of the business men of the country, proceeded upon the hypothesis that every one liable to be taxed would suh-tautiallv assess himself, and sign the lulls fixing the amount lie was to pay. If tin* ac t, there fore is complied with, the assistant assessor is but a recording officer, who receives and properly enters the lists delivered him by the citizen, and his duty in lelatiou to fixing a valuation upon objects liable to taxation, is rather advisory than absolute. In order however to prevent the selfish, the indifferent, or the traitorous, from escaping their proper proportions of tlie public burden. Congress haf fixed the penalties for their neglect, prescribed in section 11. line iug been intrusted by tMk President with the duty of seeing that these tax Hats are properly pre pared. and seasonably delivered to the collector of Ibis district. I respectfully request all good citizens within it to call immediately upon the assistant asses sor of the* assessment district wliere they reside, and deliver him list* as requited in the sixth section of the act. lie will give nil jwrsnns the necessary in formation to enable them to comply with its provis ions, and furnish blanks therefor.
