President—The Duke of BUCCLEUCH, B.G. Treasurer—Edward Masterman, Esq. This was the first hospital to introduce the principle of free and instant admission to the destitute sick, without the for mality of governors' letters. It is entirely devoted to desti tution in its most pitiable form—viz., that which is accom panied by sickness and disease, and is now of sufficient magnitude that, with adequate support, it may be rendered capable of admitting into its wards a very large proportion of the casual sick of this great metropolis. It requires but the funds in order to have 500 beds available for the reception of these the most wretched of our fellow -creatures. Moreover, it gratuitously affords medical advice and medicine to more, on the average, than 3,000 out-patients a week. The Weekly Hoard feel it their imperative duty to make an EARNEST APPEAL to the_public for continued suppqrt, to enable them to admit and relieve the distressing cases that daily present themselves.

The Committee of Management have to state that, since 'he beginning of the year 1860, the Royal National Lifeboat Institution has expended n 2,000 on various Lifeboat Estab lishments on the Coasts of England, Scotland, and Ireland. The number of lives saved by the Life-boats of the Society and other means, s i nce it s f orma tion, is 12,800; tor which services 82 Gold Medals, 718 Silver Medals, and £16,480 in cash have been paid in rewards. The Institu tion has also expended £67,000 on Life-boats, Lie-boat Transporting-carz lazes, and Boat-houses. The Committee desire to express their grateful sense of the generous support which they have received from the British public during the past few years, a support which has enabled them to est a bli s h t h e i r present magnificent fleet of 123 Lifeboats on the shores of the United Kingdom. Deeply sensible, however, of the great responsibility that rests on them to maintain their fleet in a thoroughly efficient state, and its Crews practised in the management of their boats, whi^h can only be effected by a large and permanent annual income, they earnestly appeal to all classes of their countrymen to aid them in upholding and perpetuating so great and truly national a work.

The various narra tives which have appeared under this head, while show ing many amusing traits of character, all tend to expose the favouritism which in past times existed in the British Navy, and which even to this day creates much just discontent amongst able but unfavoured officers. The recent papers which appeared in this magazine on the subject of Horse Artillery and Cavalry in their relative co-operation have called forth an article from " An Old Officer," in which, while admitting the justice of some remarks, he criticises closely, though with all courteq, certain points which do not chime in with his experience. At this juncture when the peace of Europe is trembling in the balance a retrospect of the negotiations which have been going on between the courts of Russia and the Western Powers will be read with interest. An account of the recent experiments at Shoe buryness is also worth reading, and there are papers on Military Science, Ancient and Modern, and Proposed Sub stitutes for Depot-Battalions, which, with the usual Naval and Military Intelligence complete the number. BENTLEY. —Bentley opens with a new story en titled, " Six Weeks at Hunsdon Manor," which promises entertainment for the lovers of stories of fashionable life. It is followed by an article pro pounding the startling query, " Was Man Contemporary with the Mammoth ?" which we leave to be studied and answered by the devotees of ethnology and geology. Monkshood gives us the benefit of his reflections " By the sad sea waves," aided by the comments of the poets of all ages. A Crimean Officer continues his narrative of " The Invasion of the Crimea," to be followed, we are told, by a paper on the Battle of the Alma. We have a pleasant Nea politan sketch entitled, " Rossini and the Lazzarone," which tells us how the great composer befriended one of the joyous and lazy children of the sun in the gay city of the South. The mottoes and cognisances of the Prince and Princess are discussed and analysed in a paper which commends itself to the study of all loyal subjects at this particular epoch. Frederick Marshall, who is becoming a recognised authority in all matters concerning our neighbours across the Channel, contributes a criticism on the French lan guage, in which he does full justice to the merits of that sprightly and expressive tongue. "A Tragedy in Wax work" tells us how an emperor was nearly poisoned by means of some ingeniously-prepared wax candles, and re covered from their effects to sacrifice his reamer. The Editor's historical romance of "Cardinal Pole" is con tinued with interest, the present instalment chronicling many important occurrences. LONDON SOCIETY.—The " society" we meet with under this sparkling cover is generally of the gayest and pleasantest description. We have in the pre sent number the usual ample allowance of tales and. social sketches interspersed with poems, romantic or other wise, and illustrated with plates that are generally far above mediocrity. The story of "The First Time I Saw Her" is continued with interest, and the reader as well as the hero gets a clue to Edith's secret, though the reason of her ex traordinary rudeness to the unfortunate intruder is still unexplained. "The Bachelor's Thermometer" is an amus ing sketch of the adventures of a gentleman who was the happy owner of an alarming walking-stick and a ferocious bulldog, and who made these questionable possessions a test of the sincerity of his friends and acquaintances. "Country Cousins" points a moral for over-ambitious London young ladies, while " The English in France" continues to introduce a description of some of the principal continental routes, with a story of love at first sight. " Oxford Doings" gives an account of the Commemoration in jocular rhyme, and the Guards Ball supplies, as might have been expected, subjects for prose, verse, and pencil. There is also a paper called "Recollections of Almacks," which recalls the days of its early splendour, and an amus ing lamentation over the ingenuity of modern advertisers. CASSELL'S ILLUSTRATED EDITION OF THE PIL GRIM'S PROGRESS. Part ll.—Additional promise is given in this second instalment of the present edition proving when completed the most beautiful popular edition of the Great Allegory ever published. Christian followed over the wall by Hypocrisy, Christian losing his burthen at the foot of the Cross, Christian enter ing the palace called Beautiful, Christian being clad in the armour of Salvation —these are among the subjects of the illustrations scattered, in this second part, among the letter press. And the conception and exetion otrator. f each sketc If the h reflect the highest credit upon the illus Great Tinker who wrote the book could but have massesforeseen this edition of it, desig ned for circulation among the of his fellow -countrymen, the mere anticipation of it would have been to him an euthanasia. GOOD WORDS.—Millais is still illustrating i n this wonderfully cheap b u t also wonderfully able periodical " The Parables Read in the Light of the Present Day," and he pencils here with singular for the August number of Good Words," The Pearl power of Great Price."

THE MAGAZINES. BLACKWOOD.—" Chronicles of CArlingford" is continued, and the fortunes of the Perpetual Curate seem more doubtful than ever. His aunts have taken the inconvenient idea of settling in the neigh awkward espionage. Also there is a strange man bourhood, and th us the unhappy Mr. Wentworth is expozed con nected with Mis s Wodehouse's mystery ; and altogether affairs are mo st un p ropitious. Mr. Morgan has declared Iloodagivneg th e house with him , w ho is in some way r y in direct war, and announces his intention to manage Wharf side for himself, which of course very much militates against the curate's pet scheme. At the end of this instalment a very mysterious missive arrives from Gerald which sends Mr. Wentworth away on his travels very nearly distracte with his numerous contrarieties. " Captain Speke's Wel- d come" is a brief sketch o f that gen tleman's adventures. Allusion is made to the series of papers that appeared in this periodical a few years back, written by Captain Speke. It is stated that many eminent geographers hesitated to adopt the theory he then advanced, but subsequent circum stances have proved its correctness. Captain Speke has been engaged in his arduous work for nine years, and after all his difficulties and discouragements, it must be very gratifying to him to find success crown his efforts, and to receive the appreciation of learned men as the meed of his enterprise. It is observed here that "to England belongs the distinction of furnishing the most enterprising explorers of the world." Fears are expressed lest these active ex plorers will be tempted to return to their old ways and seek out fresh discoveries. " Meanwhile," it is said, "We are happy to be able to announce to our readers that Captain Spoke is engaged in a pursuit which, though scarcely less laborious than that from which he has just re turned, will, we trust, be a source of instruction and amuse ment to those who are still speculating upon the nature of his three years' experience in Central Africa. If, after having published his work, he can, as we sincerely hope he may, be induced to remain in the haunts of civilised men, he will still have earned a page for himself in history, as having solved the moat interesting geographical problem of all ages." "In the Garden" is the title of some pleasing verses. The sentiments are healthy ones and naturally expressed. It would be well for many if they were more ready to adopt the maxim inculcated in these verses— If there be any cloud that glides Unseen above this quiet spot, Dear Lord, I thank Thee I know not What still in Thy good hand abides. But while the peaceful moments last, I snatch this hour, unstained by tears, Out of My stormy tale of years, To charm the future and the past. " The State and Prospects of the Church of England" brings the subject to a cmclusion in this part. Theological readers will be interested in this elaborate analysis of the state of affairs, and doubtless will be edified by its perusal. "George Cruikshank" is an entertaining paper that treats of artistic life. It is ably written by one who is well acquainted with his subject. It is said that "there is a middle ground between Fleet-street and Fairyland, in which George Cruikshank has displayed extraordinary skill. "Indian Prosperity" is a readable article, on a sub ject that must attract general notice. It is said that people in this country will be slow to believe that our Indian empire is really prosperous, but such is an incontrovertible fact. " Translations of Horace" considers the merits of some rival authors, and pays a tribute to both for their ex cellent versions of the renowned Latin poet. " Cax toniana" is very interesting this month. It treats of some authors in whose writings knowledge of the world is emi nently displayed. It is truly stated that this peculiarity is totally distinct from "Knowledge of Mankind." Some of the reflections on this subject are admirably expressed, and the reader who likes to indulge in a sort of semi. philosophy concerning his fellow-men will be much entertained in the perusal of these animated pages. "A Visit to an Insur gent Camp" is an exciting sketch that transplants one in fancy to the stormy scenes of war, and brings forcibly be fore the mind the woes and wrongs of Poland. "Novels" is a criticising article that contains some just strictures on recent works of fiction. Due praise is awarded to the very clever story of " ElizabAh," which was published a short 1 time since, and deserves all that is here said of it. DUBLIN UNIVERSITY.—" Wylder's Hand" is con tinued, and is well sketched, but its incidents are of the startling character, and before long there is evidence of stormy scenes occurring, and dark clouds are looming in the distance. Miss Brandon is a mystical style of heroine, and Miss Lake a most unhappy one in her fitful vagaries and strange freaks. The men of the party are all preparing slime sort of tragedy, with their fierce hatreds and ungovernable passions. " The Cross before the Name; or, Bella Donna" does not make much pro gress in this division. The chief incident is the fatal dis covery made by "lackey" of a questionable French novel that Jenny was reading, with a view to improving herself in foreign tongues for the benefit of her pupils. This act of felony has sealed his doom; already steps are E4ily taken to banish the culprit to a scholastic exile. "An Episode in English History," refers to the assassination of Mr. Perceval. It is interesting to turn from the jar and turmoil of the politics of the day, and refresh one's memory with events that seem already dim as we look back through the vista of time to the days of our earlier generation. A just censure is passed on the practice that invariably obtains, nowadays, of allowing such criminals as Felton and Bel lingham to escape the penalty of the law on the pretext of lunacy. An interesting account of Mr. Perceval's career is given in these pages, and the paper well repays perusal. " Hawise" is an extraordinary lyrical sketch that will suit ba a 1. andrrda ngwe mh suggestive.ae til t sasi v in e mournful those of romantic taste. " Reynard the Fox" is every enter taining article that fully enters into the consideration of that world-renowned book. It is here mentioned as "the gospel of our credulous childhood, and the deliberate pas time of our later years." It is suggested that this marvellous production is the result of no sudden creation, but " an accretion of sulpine fables, the growth of thousands of years." It is stated that this work has engaged the first minds, pens, and brains of Europe in seeking to trace its origin, discover its author, find out its meaning, and versify and translate it into various forms. There is a great deal worthy of notice in this paper on " Reynard," and it is sure to be considered attractive by those who read it. " Summer Novels" is a discussion of recent works, written in a lively strain, with an occa sional dash of satire, that infuses pungency into the peru sal. "A Spring Day at Beyrout" brings distant scenes before us in a picturesque form. " Old Irish Life Pictures of Pagan and Early Christian Times" will please the natives of the country to which this periodical belongs, and indeed others also, with their vivid descriptions.

One of the most interesting essays in the number is the account of the last days of Mr, Buckle, written by his companion in travel. What a warn ing p i c ture he shows us of the steel wearing out the scab cAadvantage, but indetmeramn ambition, the instability of the loftiest schemes is r p eached in the pathetic exclamation of the dying author, " Oh, my book I my book I I shall never finish my book I" Even to the last the sufferer looked forward to recovery, and buoyed himself up with hopes that were to prove delusive. He had gone abroad expressly for the purpose s trength and resting hi s mind for theof recruiting his completion of that great literary undertaking which has made his name famous. He went resolved to write nothing, though from the account given of his argum en t s and reflections during this time of proposed idleness his mental labour must have bean consi derable. It is melancholy to follow the travellers in their grave discourses and eager anticipations, knowing the while the dark shadow tso sooto fall across the p,th. Mr. Buckle was in the prime of his faculties and powers when he died, leav ing his _ambition unaccomplished, his cherished obj, ct un fulfilled. Truly does the writer say, "Of all tho melan choly things ou earth, there seems none more melancholy than the death of genius, its work undone. Ward's picture of the ' Death of Chatterton' is typical of but too many such tragedies. It is not the poison-vial that kills, but the ardent training of the mind to do too much, to get too far, to climb too high." In his sketch of Mr. 'Buckle's character, the writer goes far to explain some of his peculiarities as An author. There was a lack of poetry, a want of aspiration, an absence of that warm, genial, perceptive sympathy which sketches— - and ea ' rth's " Even to the borders of heaven's light humanity ;" makes us see, pith which gives the true toleration, which so VERDI, THE VIOLENT—(as poor Albert Smith need to call him) in a bit of a Tiff.—Some talk has been occasioned by an incident which occurred at the Grand Opera during the rehearsal of Signor Verdi's " Vepres," says the Reader. The maestro on one occasion thought he noticed that a part of the band was not doing justice to his work, and complained to M. Dietsch, the provisional con ductor. The answer of the latter not being satisfactory, Signor Verdi took his hat and left the place. In conse quence of this, a letter from the Minister informed M. Dietsch that he was "at liberty to exercise the privilege of resigning," which he accordingly did. M. Ilainl, conduc tor of the orch estra at Lyons, has been appointed i n his place, and is said, to be givin g sa ti s f act i on to b o th band and public. Signor 'Verdi has not appeared since at the opera, and has left Paris. A RACE BETWEEN A RAILWAY TRAIN AND A. KINGFISHER.—" I was travelling," writes Mr, Johns in his "Home Walks and Holiday Rambles," " on a part of the Great Western Railway which for some distance ran close to, and parallel with, a narrow stream.. A kingfisher had been disturbed by the approach of the train, and made all haste to get out of the way. Any other bird so circum stanced would have turned back or have flown away from the line of rail.

The Asia landed 140 sacks of mails and 7 passengers, and proceeded at ten o'clock for Liverpool. All well. NEW YORK, JULY 20 (Evening). New York is quiet, Governor Seymour has disbanded the citizen vo unteer organisation, and ordered them to return ,heir arms. Confederate official reports from Charleston to the 16th inst. announce that the Federals have been driven from James Island to their gunboats in the Stone River. The Federals are massing troops upon Morris Island for another attack on Fort Wegner. Three monitors and mortar-boats kept up a constant fire on Fort Wagner, but did little damage. The Charleston papers assert that the city will be defended street by street. The Southern papers report severe fighting to have taken place at Jackson from the 10th to the 16th inst. Jackson is much damaged by the Fede ral shells, which were continually thrown into the town. The Federal loss in killed amounts to 400 men, including General Osterhaus.

Fitzhugh Lee and Capt. Winder have been imprisoned in the casemates of Fort Monroe. Notice has been given to the Confederate Govern ment that if the two Federal officers selected in Richmond are executed, Lee and Winder will be executed in retaliation. The New York Herald asserts that the conscrip tion will be enforced, not to put down the rebellion, but to meet the threats of England, and the Govern ment is determined no longer to suffer privateers to be fitted out in that country. At the request of the French Consul the collec tor at San Francisco has refused to permit blasting power to be shipped to Acapulco. The steamer Kate has been destroyed off Wil mington. The Hansa, City of London, and Africa have arrived out. NEW YORK, JULY 21 (Evening). General Shackleford officially reports that he chased General Morgan over 50 miles, bringing him to a stand, when a fight ensued, lasting an hour. At the expiration of that time the rebels fled, taking refuge upon a high bluff. . General Shackleford demanded the immediate and uncon • ditional surrender of Morgan and his forces. The rebels surrendered, with the exception of Morgan, who deserted his command, taking with him a small squadron. General Shackleford captured 1,500 to 2,000 prisoners. COMMERCIAL INTELLIGENCE.

General Janman (?) has been removed for making a premature attack on Jackson, in which he was re pulsed with the loss of 300 men. General Sherman continues to besiege Jackson, which Johnston defends with 30,000 men. The Federals at Milliken's Bend and Lake Pro vidence are suffering from sickness. The Federals occupied Yazoo City on the 13th, capturing 250 prisoners. The Confederates have burned numerous steamers up the Yazoo. A fleet of Federal transports has ascended the Red River. It is officially announced that if the evidence of aliens claiming exemption is not satisfactory to the draught commissioners, they will refer the case to the State Department for decision, and will suspend action until it decides the question: (Latest by telegraph to Halifax.) NEW YORK, July 23 (Evening). The New York Herald urges the Government to grant the Confederates all their rights under the constitution, and at once proclaim war against France and England, General Grant reports from Vicksburg on the 18th that Johnston evacuated Jackson on the night of the 16th. He retreated eastward. Gen. Sherman says that most of Johnston's army must perish from heat, lack of water, and general discouragement. He continues—" The army paroled have, to a great extent, deserted, and are scattered over the country. I sent General Heron to Yazoo city. Five guns, many stores, and 300 prisoners were captured. Gen. Ransom was sent to Natchez to stop the crossing of cattle for the eastern army. Ransom captured a number of prisoners and 5,000 Texan cattle. In Louisiana more prisoners and a number of teams loaded with ammunition were taken. Over two million rounds of ammunition were brought back with the captured teams to Natchez." Unofficial accounts state that a portion of Gen. Sherman's army has occupied Jackson, and the re mainder has returned to V . k b s urg. Gen' Lee, Who held a position between Martins burg and Winchester, moved rapidly this morning in the direction of Winchester. Gen. Ewell, who had moved in the • direction of Cumberland, also fell back and followed Lee. The correspondent of the New York Tribune says that Gen. Lee no longer presents the aspect of pre cipitate retreat, but assumes a bold and even threat ening attitude. There is an increased bodyof Confederate cavalry near Harper's Ferry, supported by two regiments of infantry. Gen. Meade'e army is 35 miles south of Berlin ; the Shenandoah River and the Blue Ridge between Lee's and Meade's armies. General Kelly, who was superintend ing ' the con• struction of the Baltimore and Ohio railroa d , wa s driven back by the Confederates 15 miles from North Mountain to Hancock. The encounter of Gregg's cavalry with the Confederates is said to have been a Federal disaster. It is reported from Washington that the object of gunboats ascending James River was not to at. taek Fort Darling. Gen. Morgan, with 500 men, was endeavouring to cross the Ohio River into Virginia. It is supposed the draft in New York will recom mence next week. Coloured men will not be accepted as substitutes for white drafted men.

" Jackson, July 12. " The conduct of Cobb's (Kentucky) battery and the Washington Artillery is spoken of highly by the commanding-general in the affair this morning, also Stovall's Florida brigade. The banners cap tured are those of the 28th, 41st, and 53d Illinois Regiments. General Breckinridge sent an infir• mary corps to bring off the enemy's wounded ; their sharpshooters fired on them. Breckenridge ordered the corps to the rear. Their wounded and dead are still lying in front of our works. The enemy's loss in the charge of Sunday was fully 1,000. " July 13. "It rained hard last night. It is cloudy this morning, and there has been but little firing on either side. The enemy has six batteries in posi- tion, plainly visible from the State-house. Our troops are much elated since the success of yester day. Nothing of importance has transpired to-day. The status is unchanged, The Vicksburg prisoners will be at Brandon to-morrow. " July 14 (via Mobile, July 15). " General Johnstone sent a flag of truce to-day to General Grant, asking permission to bury the Yankee dead in front of our works. Grant asked permission to send assistance, in order to recognise the dead, which was refused. MR, VALLANDIGHAM'S ADDRESS. The following address from Mr. Vallandigham to the people of Ohio was received by the last mail "NIAGARA FALLS, CANADA WEST, July 15. " Arrested and confined for three weeks in the United States, a prisoner of State ; banished thence to the Confede rate States, and there held as an alien enemy and prisoner of war, though on parole; fairly and honourably dealt with and given leave to depart, an act possible only by running the blockade at the hazard of being fired upon by ships fly ing the flag of my own country, I found myself first a free man when on British soil. And to-day, under protection of the British flag, I am here to enjoy and in part to exercise the privileges and rights which usurpers insolently deny me at home. The shallow contrivance of the weak despots at Washington and their advisers has been defeated. Nay, it has been turned against them ; and I, who for two years was maligned as in secret league with the Confederates, having refused when in their midst, under circumstances the most favourable, either to identify myself with their cause or even so much as to remain, preferring rather exile in a foreign land, return now with allegiance to my own State and Government, unbroken in word, thought, or deed, and with every declaration and pledge to you while at home, and before I was stolen away, made good in spirit and to the very letter. Six weeks ago, when just going into banish ment, because an audacious but most cowardly despotism caused it, I addressed you as a fellow-citizen. To-day, and from the very place then selected by me, but after wearisome and most perilous journeyings for more than 4,000 miles by land and upon the sea, still in exile, though almost in sight of my native State, I greet you as your representative. Grateful certainly I am for the confidence in my integrity and patriotism implied by the unanimous nomination as candidate for Governor of Ohio which you gave me while I e C a o b e u s f e e d d e . r a ButtSta.t hi t s e i s s t h l e t l w a s a t s o n f oatl l m c i o s n p s l i a d c e e r d a iw t t io as n sh s ya i le n itn t ien im vet e rh s be like these. I ask no personal sympathy fo r the personal wrong. No ; it is the ca use of constitutional liberty and private right, cruelly outraged beyond example in a free country, by the President and his servants, which gives public significancy to the action of your convention. Yours was, indeed, an act of justice to a citizen who for his devotion to the rights of the States and the liberties of the people had been marked for destruction by the hand of arbitrary power. But it was much more. It was an example of courage worthy of the heroic ages of the world ; and it was a spectacle and a rebuke to the usurping tyrants who, having broken up the Union, would now strike down the Constitu tion, subvert your present Government and establish a for mal and proclaimed despotism in its stead. You are the restorers and defenders of constitutional liberty, and by that proud title history will salute you. I congratulate you upon your nominations. They whom you have placed upon the ticket with me are gentlemen of character, ability, integrity, and tried fidelity to the Constitution, the Union, and to Liberty. Their moral and political courage—a quality always rare, and now the most valuable of public virtues — is beyond question. Every way all these were nominations fit to be made. And even jealousy, lam sure, will now be hushed, if I especially rejoice with you in the nomination of Mr. Pugh as your candidate for lieutenant-governor and President of the Senate. A scholar and a gentleman, a soldier in a foreign war, and always a patriot ; eminent as a lawyer, and distinguished as an orator and a statesman, I hail his acceptance as an omen of the return of the better and more virtuous days of the Republic. I endorse your noble platform—elegant in style—admirable in sentiment. You present the true issue, and commit yourself to the great mission just now of the Democratic party—to restore and make sure first the rights and liberties declared yours by your Constitutions. It is vain to invite the States and people of the South to return to a Union without a Consti tution, and dishonoured and polluted by repeated and most aggravated exactions of tyrannic power. It is base in your selves and treasonable to your posterity to surrender these liberties and rights to the creatures whom your own breath created and can destroy. Shall there be free speech, a free press, peaceable assemblages of the people, and a free ballot any longer in Ohio ? Shall the people hereafter, as hitherto, have the right to discuss and condemn the principles and policy of the party—the Ministry—the men who for the time conduct the Government—to demand of their public servants a reckoning of their stewardship, and to place other men and another party in power at their supreme will and pleasure ? Shall order 38 or the Constitution be the supreme law of the land ? And shall the citizen any more be arrested by an armed soldiery at midnight, dragged from wife and child and home to a military prison; thence to a mock military trial; thence condemned, and then banished as a felon for the exercise of his rights ? This is the issue, and nobly you have met it. It is the very question of free, popular go vernment itself. It is the whole question—upon the one side liberty, on the other despotism. The President, as the recognised head of his party, accepts the issue. Whatever he wills, that is law. Constitutions, State and Federal, are nothing ; acts of legislation nothing, the judiciary less than nothing. In time of war there is but one will supreme—his will but one law, military necessity, and he the sole judge. Military orders superesde the Constitution, and military commissions usurp the place of the ordinary courts of justice in the land. Nor are these mere idle claims. For two years and more, by arms, they have been enforced. It was the mission of the weak but presumptuous Burnside—a name infamous for ever in the ears of all lovers of constitutional liberty—to try the experiment in Ohio, aided by a Judge whom I name not, because he has brought foul dishonour upon the judiciary of my country. In your hands now, men of Ohio, is the final issue of the experiment. The party of the Administration have accepted it. By pledging support to the President, they have justified nis outrages upon liberty and the Constitution; and whoever gives his vote to the candidates of that party commits himself to every act of violence and wrong on the part of the Administration which he upholds ; and thus, by the law of retaliation, which is the law of might, would forfeit his own right to liberty, personal and political, whensoever other men and another party shall hold the power. Much more do the candidates themselves. Suffer them not, I entreat you, to evade the issue ; and by the judgment of the people:we will abide. And now, finally, let me ask, what is the pretext forh all the monstrous acts and claims of arbitrary power w hic h h p ic ut you have so nobly denounced ?

And may the God of heaven and earth so *`~l*as The following is from the .Richmond Enquirer of July 18: 6 1 Charleston, July 16. "We attacked part of the enemy's forces on James Island this morning, and drove them to the protection of their gunboats in the Stono, with a small loss on both sides. The enemy is massing his troops on Morris Island, evidently for another at tack on Battery Wagner to-night or tomorrow. Three gunboats and mortar boats kept up an almost constant fire all day on that work, with little damage to it and few casualties. There has been heavy skirmishing at Jackson, Mississippi, but nothing important. " To General S. Cooper." The Charleston papers contain the following ac counts of the attack : " Charleston, July 10. " Firing on both sides at half-past six o'clock. The principal fighting has been with battery Wagner. Wagner, on Morris Island, had four "Monitors" engaged from 5 till 2, when they with drew. A tugboat supplied them with ammunition and they renewed at 3—infantry also fighting. Several Yankees made two assaults upon hattery Wagner, but were repulsed. Our casualties are about 150 killed, wounded, and missing, includ ing three officers killed, to wit :—Captains Haskell and Cheves, and Lieutenant Bell. It is supposed that the attack will be renewed to-morrow. "July 15. " There was little change in the condition of .• affairs yesterday. Three of the enemy's wooden gunboats kept up a slow shelling of Battery Wag ner all the afternoon, which was slowly replied to by our guns at the battery and also at Fort Sumter. It was reported in the city last evening that the Yankees had been shelled from their position on Black's Island by a battery of ours near Secession ville, but of this we have no confirmation up to the time of our going to press. Four new vessels, supposed to be mortarboats, had joined the enemy's fleet yesterday. Governor Bonham has called for 3,000 negro labourers to work on the forifications." President Davis had issued the following pro clamation " Whereas, it is provided by an Act of Congress, entitled " An Act to further provide for the Public Defence," approvea the 16th day of April 1862, and by another Act of Congress, approved the 27th of September, 1862, entitled ' An Act to amend an act to provide further tor the Public Defence,' approved 16th of April, 1862, that the Presi dent be authorised to call out and place in the military service of the Confederate States for three years, unless the war should have been sooner ended, all white men who are residents of the Con federate States between the ages of 18 and 45 years at the time the call may be made, and who are not at such time legally exempted from military ser vice, or such part thereof as in his judgment may be necessary to the public defence. "And whereas, in my judgment, the necessities of the public defence require that every man capa. ble of bearing arms between the ages aforesaid should now be called out to do his duty in the de fence of his country, and in driving back the inva ders now within the limits of the Confederacy. " Now, therefore, I, Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America, do, by virtue of the powers vested in me as aforesaid, call out and place in the military service of the Confe derate States all white men residents of said States between the ages of 18 and 45 years not legally exempted from military service ; and I do hereby order and direct that all persons subject to this call and not now in the military service do, upon being enrolled, forthwith repair to the conscript camps established in the respective States of which they may be residents, under pain of being held and punished as deserters in the event of their failure to obey this call, as provided in said laws. "And I do further order and direct that the eh rolling officers of the several States proceed at once to enrol all persons embraced within the terms of this proclamation, and not heretofore enrolled. "And I do further order that it shall be lawful for any person embraced within this call to volun teer for service before enrolment, and that persons so volunteering be allowed to select the arm of ser vice and the company which they desire to join, provided such company be deficient iu the full num ber of men allowed by law for its organisation. " Given under my hand and the seal of the Confe derate States of America, at the city of Richmond, this 15th day of July, in the year of our Lord 1863. JEFFERSON DAVIS. "By the President.—J. P. BENJAMIN, " Secretary of State." From Tennessee we have the following : " Memphis, Tennessee, July 17. " Gen, Hurlbut's scouts arrived at Corinth to-day from Decatur and Jacksonville. They report that Bragg was retreating precipitately into Georgia, followed by Rosencran's forces. Rosencran's ad vance was reported to be at Rome, Georgia. The scouts report that Bragg was endeavouring to make a junction with Johnstone, and that deser tions from his army were numerous." The Confederates under Morgan were reported to have been defeated in an attempt to cross the Ohio on the 17th. He was last reported to be moving on Gallipolis.

Johnstone this morning issued to the troops the following battle order, which was read along the line amid deafening shouts from the soldiery : " Headquarters on the field, July 9. " Fellow Soldiers—An insolent foe, flashed with the hope by his recent success at Vicksburg, con fronts you, threatening the people, whose homes and liberty you are here to protect, with plunder and conquest.
