Mr. Oowan added that the■ onl
tlie Union  could be restored \v:
every part should enjoy its right**-.    ...
auy oilier wav we could not succeed
He looked npo
the scheme to thrusi
emancipation down the throat of the
South in the same light us vise attempt
of the South to thrust slavery on trie
North.  He wanted to make friends with
the South, and not to make weapons
against us! The country was not to be
saved by initiating legislation and
schemes in favor of the negro, but by
war against tho rebellion and kindness
to the loyal people. He believed tho
system of legislation pursued here
brought us to the condition we are now
in, and massed the enemy against us.
Where is now the great army ? And
shall we go on fighting as if we were
an Abolition Party fighting against the
Pro-Slavery Party.
Mr. Chandler said the  Senator from
Pennsylvania wanted to know where the
army was or who had placed them there.
The army of the Potomac,, when inarched on Manassas, numbered 38-000. They
inarched  on  Manassas   and   found 82
wooden guns and 11,000  dead horses.
The army could have marched to Richmond In thirty days and not lost a thousand men, and there was no impediment
to its marching to Charleston or Now
Orleans.   Put the Senator from. Perm-1
sylvania wants to know who placed the
army where it is.   The press, politicians j
and traitors of the country declare that \
E. M. Stanton put them there; but Stan-1
ton had nothing to do with the army in
the marshes of the Chickahominy.
This   Is   a matter   of criminality,   of
gross criminality, which should consign
the criminal to eternal detestation and
condemnation.    The country demands
sacrifice for this crime, and the press of
the country are demanding the sacrifice
of the mere  clerk  Stanton, the mere
clerk to obey the orders of the President.
He (Chandler) introduced a resolution,
which, if answered,   would   show the
criminal.    The criminality was reduced
bo as to be between two persons-   The
great crime consisted in sacriucin*.g and
■   dividing the great army of the Potomac,
and the criminal is cither Abraham Lincoln or George B. McClellan.    There is
no third man at all.
The criminal, in. his judgment, should
not only be deprived of his  office, but
suffer the extreme penalty of tho law.
The Nation has been  disgraced by this
division of the Army of the Potomac,
and E. M. Stanton  always opposed it.
If that great army had boon commanded by the arch traitor Jeff, Davis, there
has not been a movement   which he
"would not have ordered  since the first
of December.   He called on the press
and traitors of tlie country to stop denouncing a mere clerk, and to denounce
Abraham Lincoln or George P>. McClellan.
Who led the army into the marshes of]
the Chickahominy, where tliey died like
sheep, and where the l8ft wing was left
to maintain a savage fight when a rein-
, forcement from the right or centre
.^ would have sent the rebels back into
"Richmond defeated ?

WAR.
In St. Clements' Eve—a new drama by Jol
lor, occurs the following pas-age : i^^^^^^
Nigh forty days I sped from town to town,
Hamlet lo hamlet, and grange to grange,
And wheresoe'er I set my foot, behold !
The foot of war had been before, and there
Did nothing grow ;  and in tfie friiitler-is fields,
Whence ruffian hands had snatched the beasts of
draft,
Women and children to Ihe plough were yoked;
Tlie very sheep had learnt the ways of war,
/. nd, soon as from the citadel rang out
The 'larutn bell, flocked to the city gales:
And tilled was none by day, for none durst forth :
But wronging the night season, whieh God gave
To minister sweet forgelfulnesa and rest,
Was labor and a ppur,    I journeyed on,
And near a homing village in a wood
Were huddled 'ncaUi a drift of blood-stained snow
The houseless villagers.    I journeyed on,
And us I passed a convent, at the gate
Were famished peasants, hustling each the other,
Half fed by famished nuns.    I journeyed on,
And 'twist a hamlet and a church tho road
Was black with biers, for famine-fever raged.
I journeyed on—a trumpet's brazen clung
Died in the distance ; at niy side, I heard
A child's weak wail, that on its mother's breast
Drooped its  thin face and died.    Then  pealed to
heaven
The mother's funeral cry— "My child is dead
For lack of food; he hungered unto death.
A soldier ale his food, and what was left
He trampled in the' mire ; my child is dead I
Hear me, 0 Cod ! a soldier killed my child—
See to that soldier's quittance—blood for blood,1

[Prom thi; Franklin Co. (X. Y.) Gazette.]
Captain Michael Berry.
It was our fortune, while an inmate of (he Bas-
tile to which we were consigned by the order of
the brutal tyrant who is the fit Instrument and
representative of the infamous, Abolition, disunion
party which holds the reins of power at Washington, to form many pleasant acquaintances, and
some warm friendships. But of all with whom we
were associated, none so won otic regard as Captain Michael Becky.
He came to this country early in the present
century, a poor, friendless, homeless Irish boy ; but
soon alter his .arrival he engaged as a cabin boy
with a Connecticut shipmaster running a vessel
between New York and Charleston. In (he family of his employer he found a home, where he
was kindly treated and respectably reared and
educated. He gradually arose from his first posi
tion to that of a mate, and finally received the
command of a vessel in lhe New York and Charleston lino, and was the first to Introduce steam
in that line. He was ever a popular and trusted
commander, never having suffered a shipwreck,
or lost a man from a vessel he commanded. Such
a favorite was he, that always when a new vessel
was built and put into the line, he was given tho
command, turning over the vessel which he left
tome other commander. Wheu the present
hies broke out he was in command of the
Steamship Columbia, ihe newest and best vessel
on the line. He waa also a part owner, and had
accumulated a handsome property, haviug considerable real estate in Charleston.
For four months we were a room-mate of Capt
Berry at Fort Warren, and daily and hourly during that period of trial and suffering did we have
occasion lo be thankful that we had such a companion to cheer our prison gloom and alleviate
the hardships of prison life. A bluff, frank, manly sailor, he was at the same time aa gentle and
tender hearted as a woman. Generous, kind, con
siderate of the rights and feeliugs of others, his
heart instantly melted at a scene ol suffering, and
his purse was ever open and his baud ever ready
lo relieve and succor the unfortunate aud distressed. In short—lor we have no space to say more—
he was the noblest man we ever knew.
And this good old man is dead—has been killed
by the tyrant who, without cause, and without the
authcrit-y of law, had bim kidnapped, and for six
long months incarcerated iu a military prison,
from which he was Sn&tty discharged only to die.
Capt. Berry was committed to Fort Lafayette on
the 8th of October, from there was sent to Fort
Warren with the other political prisoners the last
of that month—and was discharged about a month
ago. We saw during the winter, that his spirits
were failing, and his physical system giving way,
under the confinement to which we were subjected
and the sense of wrong which was eating his eonl.
We feared the consequences, aud now our apprehensions are but too painfully realized.
And why   was this  noble-hearted old man   thus
persecuted and murdered?   He was no politician
—he had never cast a vote in his life—he had taken
no   part  in   the  sectional   troubles in which   the
country was involved.   But private enmity  and
[iM-cOiial   maii.eiiity   marked  him for  destruction,
and a pretext was found which brought the necessary order from Seward for his   incarceration.    It
was  charged  that in March,   1861,   when leaving
New York  harbor with his vessel, he raised   th.
Palmetto Flag—the State Flag of South Carolina*
The charge was true.   But now for ihe explanation.    It was a flag which he had  used as his private signal and racing ii i»-for fifteen year:;.    Daniel Webster, William H.Seward himself, and many
other prominent men of the North had gone passengers with him  under that very Sag ;   aud only
two years ago, John A. Dix took  passage wiih
Capt. Berry, to Charleston, ou his way to Florida*
whither he was hastening, with all possible speed'
to the bed side of his sick wife, and was exttemely
anxious to reach   Charleston in time to take the
Florida Steamer  from there.    Capt. Berry assured
him  that be should be pot on board, or he would
take  him on to Florida  himself.    When   they arrived near (hep port of Charles'on,   the :"o:*nd the
Florida Steamer just leaving and had to give her
chase, and finally signalled her and brought her
to with this same Palmetto Flag,   For this service
Gen. Dix professed the most unbuuuded gratitude ;
and yet for months he turned a deaf ear to Capt.
Berry's appeal to him to use his influence to obtain
his release.   Such was Gen. Dix's gratitude.
Now, what offence was there in raising the Palmetto Flag on tho Columbia in March, 1861, more
thau auy at any other?    There was train tern-pled
intercourse between the North and South.    Vessels, passengers and freight, were allowed to go
and come as before  the troubles.    The mails were
still in operation between the two sections.   And
more thau that, the Lincoln administration was
professing a peace policy, and assuring the country
that there would be no war.    When Capt. Berry
left New York harbor ou the occasion referred tc
the Steamship Yorktown, one of the New York
and Richmond line, was just leaving  port,  and
the two vessels went ia for a trial of speed, and
Capt. Berry, as in all  such cases, raised  the Palmetto Flag, and the Yorktown raised the VirgiDia
State Flag.    But both vessels had at the appropriate aud customary place, the United States Flag
flying.   This was all there was of it.    The act was
oue of no political significance whatever,   Capt-
' Berry made several trips after that,  and his vessel
was not drawn off till tho bombardment of Fort
Sumter.
Mow mark—this was in March, and justice slept,
and vengeance did not strike, till October, seven
mouths after, during all which time Capt. Berry
was openly in the city of New York. But then
a leading Black Republican, who had a private
grudge against the Captain, in consequence of hiB
having detected aud exposed him in some
dishonorable act a year ago—and who was
probably the only enemy the Captain had in the
world—told the story cf tho Palmetto Flag to
Seward, and Seward ever p.-ompt and eager for
new victims, had him kidnapped and imprisoned,
and resisted al! appeals for his discharge, aod
there he was kept, dying by inches, till lhe Commissioners appointed by the Secretary of War
visited Fort Warren a few weeks since.
As it was with Capt. Berry, so it has been with
most of the political prisoners—they have been
incarcerated upon equally groundless pretexts—
aod in moat instances, as in his, at the instigation
of private malice. How it was in this County,
let tho wretches whom we have in cur eye, and
who will yet be brought to a fearful reckoaing,
answer.

Cincinnati, Aug. ill.—On Friday a rebel company at Richmond. Ky, drove in our cavalry. Gen
Muuston, with the (39th and Tlst Indiana regiments
moved up after throwing a few shells, and the enemy retreated rapidly beyond BogersTille, leaving
one fgua behind. Maneoa bivouacked for tho
night, aud on Saturday morning he advanced with
the 2 regiments and 4 gnus. Coining up with the
enemy an artillery^tight ensued, with heavy loss
on both eidea. The enemy attempted to turn our
left flaufe, when sharp firing oocurred between the
skirmishers. Tbe 69th advanced 'hrough a dense
Are of shot and shell to the relief of our skirmish-
era, aod behaved like old soldiers, but the rebels
finally turned our left and advanced in full force.
Gen Munson then ordered a retreat and fell back

on the high hills and got his artillery into position
on tho right and left flanks. Firing by artillery
then recommenced, and waa kept up briskly on.
Gen.   Ord   Cnargotl   with   Protecting a Rebel
Extortionist's Cornfield near corlnth.
The Was Department ought to issue a general
order immediately with reference to the treatmeal
of rebels and property proscribed in the oonfisea--
tion and other laws of the last Congress. The laws
are sufficiently definite and comprehensive—the
practice of several Generals does not conform to
either the laws or their spirit. The Chicago Tribune, on 'high authority' publishes a case id point
which will interest the California friends of the
iflicer referred lo.    The Tribune says :
Brigadier General Otho Cresap Ord commands
a brigade at or near Corinth. Within his lines the
field of a noted rebel brought forth corn abundantly. As soon as it began to be fit for use, the
soldiers, lapsing into scurvy and other diseases
incident to a lack of vegetable food, were glad to
purchase the corn at the modest sum of five cents
an ear, lawful coin of the realm. But soon the
greed of Mr. Rebel began to grow, aud not au ear
would he sell short of ten cents. For a day or' ,vo
the poor, suffering soldiers, justly regarding this
price as extortionate, helped themselves, keeping
careful account aud offering to pay Ave cents per
car lo the rapacious rebel. He scorned their offers,
and at once procured fr«tH Gen. Ord a '.'e;y Btroag
guard for his cornSeld, end an or4er that all trespassers should be tied u-p by the thumbs—a most
inhuman aud barbarous punishment.
both sides.  	
After fighting Iwe hours, the enemy advanced
on our right under cover of the woods, and, after
severe fighting, succeeded in turning it. A retreat
immediately took place to tiie original camping
ground, where Gen. Nelson came up, and after
great efforts succeeded in rallying tbe men and
formed another line or" battle : but lhe artillery
ammunition being nearly exhausted, and some
guns left without men to work them, all having
beeu killed or wounded, the men again fell back,
retreating toward Lexington. The enemy's forces
numbered from 15,000 to 20,000, whilst our forcea
were about 5,000, with Murray's and Metcalf'a
cavalry. The loss in killed and wounded is heavy
ou both sides, but the number ;'s not known. Our
army was composed entirely of raw troops.
Washington, Aug. 31.—Private advices from
Fredericksburg up to 3 r.M. yesterday contradict
the reports regarding the burning of bridges and
destruction of property in that locality. Genera!
Burnsides had posaeasioa there.
The enemy, heavily reinforced, yesterday attacked Pope's army before Sumner aod Franklin arrived. The attack was boldly met and a severe
battle followed. The advantage, on the whole, was
with the enemy; aud Pope fell back to Centrevilla
with his army in good condition, where he has
been joined by Sumner aod Franklin. He occupies the strongest position in the viciuity of Wash-
iogton aud is expected to promptly renew the contest. Forty-three wagon loads of hospital stores
left here on Saturday for the battle field, and a
number of physiciaus also went.
St. Loits, Sept 1.—Advices from Greenville
state that 500 guerrillas under McBride threaten
that place, where there are 1100 Federal troops
under Colonel Simpson. The rebels for some dajs
have been congregating all their available forcea
iu that point, and hourly expect to make offensive
demonstrations. An attack is Boon expected and
no fears are entertained cf the result.
Louisville, Sept. 1.—A Bowling Green dispatch
says thai a large rebel force under Buckner is at
Tompkiu-rviiic. Tje rebris 'U;;'oy.al iae telegraph
yesterday at the State line, thus cutting off communication with Nashville.
New Yokk, Sept. 1.—The Tribune's Washington
dispatch dated Sunday :31s':. say- : 'fo news of the
renewal ot the contest to-day, except a telegram
dated I'V.in'ax Station this forenoon, which epeaks
of heavy guns being heard in the neighborhood of
Brislow Station. This is hoped, in high official
quarters here, to be the noise caused by the blow-
log un of his trains by Gen.Banks, who it is feared
is cur off with bis whole force.
Five hundred rebel prisoners were at Falrfax(
waiting transportation to Washington. They concur in saying, as does information from all other
sources, that tha whole rebel army was engaged
under Lee. Its numbers noue of them set ut less
than 15O.00D. Many estimate it as high as 200,000
or 300,000. The prisoners also say they were promised an easy and speedy march into Washington.
