There is nothing new to report from the army in
front of Washington. The rebels on the Lower
Potomac do not seem disposed to use their bat
terIes or make any hostile demonstrations The
rebel steamer George Page was seen to come to
the Maryland side on Monday with a large num-
Der Of men on board, but taking alarm at the
sound Of bugle in the camp of Colonel
Taylor, she moved off and returned to the
Virginia side, without landing any Of her
troops. She threw number Of shells however.
In the direction ofCol Taylors forces, but without
doing any damage. Some Of our vessels fred into
The batteries at Aqua creek yesterday, with
what result is not known and the fire was returned
by the rebels. She now lies shut up in Quantico
creek in such position that our batteries on the
Maryland shore are very likely to keep her there.
The army Of General Mcclellan is still receiving
reinforcement. Eight regiments from Pennsylya.
MIA and three from Massachusetts have received
marching orders for the seat of war and viii at once
repair thither to strengthen the army of the Po-
tomac.
The rebel pickets on the Virginia side Of the Up.
per Potomac opposite Edwards Ferry, were lining
the shore thickly on Saturday, while the brgades
Of General Banks division were crossing to the Ma
ryand side, and tainted the latter upon their
attempt to invade Virginia, inviting them TO pay
another visit. They may repeat the invitation,
however, when it is next accepted Everything
remained quiet during the night, but the camp fires
Of the rebel pickets were distinctly visible in the
woods along shore.
We have intelligence from Missouri that General
Lane captured transportation train of the rebels
In Bates county, and took the escort prisoners,
commanded by Captain Whiting and Lieutenant
Vaughn. quantity of lead belonging to the re-
bells also fell into the hands Of General Lane and
was sent to Camp Scott, in Kansas. The position
of General Price and Ben. McCulloch still remains
mystery.
General Rosecrans dispatches from Weston, Va,
that he is preparing to make another advance
movement, with view to drive the rebels from
that section of country and states that he believes
them to be in retreat for several days past.
The government has received intelligence from
our Ministers at London and Paris that very ia
vorable feeling exists in the governments of
Europe towards the United States government
and its cause. The rebel Commissioners are still
actively engaged in purchasing and shipping goods
contraband Of war to Southern ports.

The war has changed the spirit of our dream

Already the good work of regeneration has
spread far and wide over the land. There is
little or no market here for French silks and
expensive jewelry now. The importations have
therefore all but ceased, and every article of
foreign luxury is equally unsaleable. This is a
good sign-a sign that the strong wine of our
native character is no longer weakened into a
wretched mixture more worthy of the name of
eau sucre than any other. When silks are laid

fabrics will take their place. We shall there.

millinery set of with fine gold and precious
stones, dressed in becoming calico, and looking
quite as graceful and much more sensible for
the change. We shall see brown stone fronts in
fashionable thoroughfares no longer looked
upon as necessary to the responsibility Of peo-
pie already respectable We shall adapt our
selves to our reduced incomes with patriotic
contentment, and profit by the lesson we have
received. Wealth will be no longer the critic
rion of what man is worth. There will be
great social levelling of the classes, and far
greater equality of wealth. Merit will rise to
its proper position in the social scale, and
vicious and perverted tastes will be swept
away. All this will be better for the country
and the generation, and its good effects will be
carried down on the waves of an enlightened
posterity. Such are the uses of adversely and

pre- eminent qualities. there is an incubation Of q

high degree, in the first place, to the educational
skill of the superintendent aided by his efficient

We shall meet, but shall miss him,
There will be one vacant chair;
We shall linger to caress him,
While we breathe evening prayer.
When year ago We gathered
Joy was in his mild blue eye,
But golden cord is severed
And our hopes in ruin lie.
At our freside sad and lonely,
Often will the bosom swell,
At remembrance Of the story,
How our noble Willie fell :
How he strove to bear our banner,
Through the thickest Of the fight,
And upheld our eountry's honor,
With the strength Of manhood's might.
True, they tell us wreaths Of glory,
Evermore will deck his brow,
But this soothes the anguish only,
Sweeping o'er our heart strings now.
Sleep o-day, early fallen!
In thy green and narrow bed
Dirges from the pine AID cypress
Mingle with the tears we shed,
We shall meet, but we shall miss him,
There will be vacant chair:
We shall lngcr to caress him,
When we breathe our evening prayer.
