The secessionists must demonstrate upon
Washington, Baltimore, or both. Not to do so is
to stand disgraced and exposed in the eyes OF
mankind. The world knows that they have a
very large army at and near Manassas, that it is
flushed with victory well nigh miraculous, and
that the Union forces have been greatly dimin-
ished by the return home Of many OF their best
regiments, whose place is filled by raw levies.
Should they rest idly at Manassas, they confess
that their army is for the most part worthless
rabble. Whether in earnest or otherwise, then,
they must attempt to cross the Potomac. That
General Scott does not deem them formidable
is proved by the ordering Of new regiments to
Fortress Monroe, instead Of thence to Washing

GREELEY is a queer genius. Having succeed
ed in getting our army "forward to Richmond"
which resulted disastrously, he now turns about
and insists that Mr.. DAVIS shall "forward" bis
army on Washington. He thinks II they do
not do so, they will "stand dlsgraced in the eyes
of mankind" Now, II DAVIS should take his
advice, and get whipped, we dop't want to see
GREELEY turn about, plead the baby act, and
say ho didn't write the article.

The New York World offers some very Curl
Gus views againt the reconstruction of the Cab.
met. Of course, its main argument is, that
there is no necessity for any change, point
which We do not propose TO consider at this mo-
ment. But supposing change should be deem
ed desirable, the World proceeds to say then,
since the whole North is fused into one COM
mon flame OF patriotism, and old party lines
are quite obliterated-why, what would be the
consequence Only, that former opponents of
the Republican party would expect to be repre-
sented in the new Cabinet. Ii they were, the
World conceives that the Republicans would be
dissatisfed--if they we're not, then those oppo-
nents would not be content. Probably not. Il
will be seen, that this is specimen of reason
ing often pursued by Republican papers, and
often practically exempliied by those who make
appointments to Office under that party. They
talk largely about the union of all parties
but then this union must enure to the benefit of
the Republican party, or il all goes for nothing.
Thus, according to the circular reasoning of
the World, it would not do to regard the claims
and necessities of the country to have new
administration of affairs, agreeable to all the
patriotic men of the country, who have now be-
come all united for the sake of the country; be-
cause this would not suit the purposes OF the
Republicans-who, upon this showing, would
not seem to be very sincere members Of the
new united organization, in which, according to
the World, oil the old party lines and distinc-
tions are swallowed up and forgotten. The
principle appears to us very much like the ia
mliar proposition" Heads, wln,-tails, you

CoNsUMPTIoN.-How often do we hear the
death OF friend by the hand Of this fell de.
stroyer, and when we ask the particulars, the
answer often is " They had humor, it set
tied on their lungs and they died" Here then
it is admitted thathumor was the primary cause
of their disease. IL is these humors upon which
we wish to speak. Kennedy's Medical Discov.

years, and in that time its merits have been

Cenauering n Peace.

We are told that the war must 60 on until
we conouer a peace. There must be no talk oil
a compremise-not a word said about cessa-
tion of tbewar. until peace is restored through
the instrumentality Of powder and ball.
This language means, if it has any meaning
intended to be understood by the mass OF the
people, that the war must be carried on, unit
the object for which the Government called
armed men into the field, is accomplished
That object is, according to the Presidents
first proclamation calling for troops, to dispers'
bands of armed men conspring against the
Government, by resisting the execution OF the
federal laws.
We have a right to presume, Notwithstanding
the ferocous expressions in the Republican
press about long and bloody war against the
savages and barbarians of the South, that the
President and Cabinet have not changed the
purpose of the war, since they have given no
official notice of such change. r
The war will then cease and peace be restor'
ed, when combinations OF individuals in arms
to prevent the execution of the laws, shall be
dispersed or cease to exist. Then we shall
have conquered peace.
But there are men among US talking fercely
about conquering q peace, who would not be
satisfied if every Confederate regiment and
company were disbanded, and the laws of the
Union we're executed in every Southern State
with as little impediment as they were year
ago. Some individuals and journals talk as
though they were actuated by spirit Of dead
ly hatred and revenge, not only against the
DarbariAns and savsges, as they call the South
ern people, but against all who will not join
with them in their fierce personal denunciations,
and swear themselves in for a war Of eubjIga-
ton and determination.
The efforts Of these Northern fre-eaters are
directed increasingly and energeticaliy to inaame
the minds of the people with the same mali
cious and revengeful feelings against those who
differ from them in opinion. There is to be
with them no federation Of any views respecting
the war, slavery, or any other political topic, but
their own. For this end there lie to be but one
political party in the country, and all who do
not swear fealty to it and its leaders, are to
be branded as secessionists and traitors. This
is what is meant by many in their clamor about
conquerihg peace. They would not only de.
prlve Southern men Of their constitutional rights,
but rob Northern men of that personal freedom
without which man is serf and slave

Senator Wilson has been one of the most i'm
Fortunate besiegers of the President urging thu
advance into Virginia. His conversation fol-
months has been in disparagement of General
Scott, and he has interfered in the military ar
rangements of the Generaln. Chief, in virtue
of his position as Chairman Of the Military
Committee in the Senate, in o manner which
has contributed in great measure TO the sad
result just experienced. If Wilson could only
be transferred from his seat in the Senate to
the seat he occupied on his old bench at Natick
the country would be benefited by having "tht
right man in the right place. .si 75b..f e
We copy the above from the Boston Post
We have no objection to putting WILSON out ol
the public service, We would be willing to ex
change him to DAVIS for some gallant soldier
but we do protest against disgracing the shoe
makers by forcing him on them. He has done
much to cause the defeat of our army, by urg
ing them into fight, not for any love he bears
for the Union or the Constitution, but for his
hatred Of every man who is a STAKEHOLDER. He
disgraces the place once occupied by WEBSTER.

The michigan first Regiment.

Major Bidwell, acting commander Of the lst
Michigan Regiment, In an official report Of the
engagement on Sunday, says:--our loss was
heavy. and occurred mostly In front of the enc
my's batteries. The loss OF officers Is large
proportionately TO men. No troops could have
maintained their formation any great length OF
time under such a fire. They were hurried in
TO action after march Of twelve miles over an
exceedingly dusty road. There was little or
no time for rest or Refreshments, but the IA
tigued men evinced courage, GOODNESS and en-
durance, that entitled them TO the highest
praise.
This regiment went to the field with AIS men
and 25 officers, and lost nine officers and I05
men, or about one-iourth.

Loss OF HAlR.--Mueh of this deprivation is
caused by sheer neglect after illness, or some
other temporary drain upon the follicles at the

ToIsgrapIlIc n onsense

From the dispatches Of the last day or two
the inference Ii irresistible that the Conie1er'
ates got badly whipped at Bulls Run. The
frat accounts placed the victory on the otner
side, but these accounts have been graduaiiy
modified and corrected, until II now almost ap-
pears that instead of the Federals meeting
reverse, the case was the reverse. Gen. NC
Dowell's army merely retreated TO Alexandra,
and Beauregard's men were such towards that
they did NOS follow them more than half way
Indeed, the retreat OF the Federal forces crea-
ted panic ia the ranks Of their antagonists,
who retired in great disorder to their entrench-
ments at Manassas. The Confederates had
some three or four thousand killed. whilst the
mortality of the Federals was as many hun
dreds. In short, we suppose that the former, in
full force, ninety thousand strong, were en-
gagged by small scouting party, who, by a
mastery retreat, eventually carried the day
The next we shall hear, may be that In reality
there was no battle at all, and that "all reports
to the contrary are mere ednaTds." 'ltlfc :.
It turns out, upon the statement of a "weal-
thy VirgiLian," that it was q very fortunate
thing that the rebels were not driven beyond
Manassas, for the ground in that locality is ar
tistically mined and tons OF gunpowder placed
there; but the same authority informs us that
had the Federal forces got beyond Manassas.
Beauregard admits that the rebel cause would
have been lost. OF course Beauregard said
that, inasmuch as he is avery laxative fellow,
aud rather inclined to take sides with the
North anyhow, but then Beauregard GER
tainly did not know Of these mining opera
tions.
