BEAUREGARDs BELLs.-A newspaper cor

the most striking objects which presented IL

They were ofall sizes, from very large church
bells, weighing hundreds of pounds, down to

the sound of these 'charch-going bells sum

alas! would never hear them againl How
many merry peals had they rung out on days
have they tollod along to the house appointed

with them; but think a most appropriate
disposal would be at the close Of the war TO
cast them into an obelisE, to commemorate
the triumph of the Union and the Consiitu-
tion over treason and rebellion" The bells
are now in Boston. They number nearly
eight hundred, and the metal is valued at
$4,000

Ex-Governor Neil 5. Brown, Of Tennessee
spoke at Union mass-meeting, in Columbia,
in that State. on the ID inst, and warned the
rebels that their last hope Of success is destroy
ed. lie said:
Yes, see the workings of this war. You
will lose your yourg men, the flower of your
populaton-you will lose your cotton. your
commerce, your tobacco. The air is thick
with their smoke, and The waters Of the Miss
issippi are sweetened with your sugar. This
ruin will tell on your credit and your banks
when you are dead. 1t will tell on your
friends and kindred. L congratulate myself
that never urged man to go tO war. But
1 reproved no one for doing 50. 1 feel more
like weeping than utterins reproaches, but
feel i TO be my duty to stop the wrongs oi
this war, if | can, for the future.
The President and Congress have both
said, emphaticalIy, that they had no wish to
interfere with slavery, or disturb the rights Of
property, Bat at the same time the Presi-
dent had intimated that he reserves to him
self to judge what might be a military neces-
stty in the future, if the South PERSISTED IL
waging this war with stubborn opposition.
And my word for it, rather than allow the
negroes to continue giving aid to the South
ern army, he will emancipate every slave in
the South 1t will become what is called a
military necessity, and the question will be,
whether the Union or slavery shall perish. =
He will be certain to say the latter.
Suppose, however, he never does do this
don't say that he wil-but suppose this war
be fought on to the bitter end, what will be
come of our slaves? of what value will they
be? They are running away every day. Whea
war gets to the cotton States, where are large
districts densely peopled with blacks almost
exclusively, then slavery will be ruined. The
slaves will run loose over the land, and then
who loves his family would live among saw
age population roaming about in search OF
food and plunder? The white population will
be expelled, or rather selfexiled. The ques-
ton is fraught with trouble. Whether the
Government wills it or not, emancipation will
become q necessary result of the war, from the
trouble and friction it occasions.

rrpr1 ACCOUNTS OF THE BATTLE.
From Che Richmond Esamlner. July 4.h.

From the Richmond Examiner, July 4th.
The battle of Tuesday was perhaps the ferc-
est ani most sanguinary Of the series of bloody
conflicts that have signalized each Of The last
seven days. We have already adver;ed to the
part played in the action by Gen. Jackson and
others, but as yet have made little mention OF
the operations upon the occasion of General
Magruder and the troops under his command.
We now propose to give such particulars as
ne have obtained on the field after the battle.
Early on Tuesday morning the enemy, from
the position to which he had been driven the
night before, continued his retreat in south
easterly direction toward his gunboats on the
james river. At eight o'clock a. m. AIagru-
der commenced the pursuit, advancing eau
tiously but steadily, and sheliing the forests
and swamps in front as he progressed. This
method of advance was kept up throughout
the morning and until o'clock p. m, without
coming up with the enemy. But between 4
aud O'Clock eur troops reached large open
field mile long and three-quarters in width,
on the farm of DIR. Carter The enemy were
discovered strongly entrenched in a-dense for
est on the other side of this field Their ar
tillery. of about fifty pieces, could be plainly
seen bristling on their freshly constructed earth
works. Atte minutes before O'Clock D. NJ
Gen, Magrrder ordered his men to charge a
cross the field and drive the enemy from THEN
position. Calamity they sprang to the en-
counter, rushing into the field at full rum
Instantly from the line of the enemy's breast
works a murderous storm of grape and can
lister was hurled into their ranks, with the
most terrible effect.
Officers and men went down by hundreds
but yet, undaunted and unwaYering, our liut
dashed on until two.thirds of the distance a
cross the field was accomplished. Here th'
carnage from the withering Ere of the enemy
combined artillery and musketry was terrible
Our line wavered moment and fell back t,
the cover of the woods. Twice again the ei
fort to carry the position was renewed, bu
each time with the same results Night, a
length, rendered further attempt injudicious
and the fight, until ten o'clock, was kept VI
by the artillery of both sides. To add to tn
horrors, if not the dangers Of the battle, th
enemy's gunboats, from their position at Cur.
, Neck, 21S miles distant, poured on the field
, continued broadsides from their immense riff
guns Though it is questionable, as we hav

Management Of Cuttings.

The following directions by Mr.. A..
S. FULLER, on the management of
cuttings, made at recent meeting Of
the Brooklin Hort. Society, will bo
Interesting to our practical reader.
Hardy cdttings-that is from outdoor
hardy wooded plants, such as currantB,
will succeed best if made in Septem-
Der when the wood Is ripe; they are
cut just under ain eye or bud and left
about six inches long planted in rows
about two inches apart in the rows,
by spring they will be ready to make
q large growth. Be sure to pack the
earth in tight at the bottom of
the cutting or they will not succeed;
In this way most Of the hardy out
door plants can be propigated, such
as the Rose of Sharon, Spireas, Deut.
zias, DC. For the grape two eyes are
the best, the top one nearly covered.
The Delaware grape, which is one
of the hardest vines to pfaplgate, can
be readily done by taking small cut
tings before the frost and planting
where they are to grow, covering we'll
during the winter with leaves, &c,
and by spring they will be we'll call
oused over and ready to make good
shoots. OF soft-wooded plants, take
off part of the old wood along, and
they will root more readily. Ounce
and other things of that kind will be
better this way. Evergreens, such
as the Arbor Vitae, Juniper, &c, II
small cuttings are put in frame out
doors and covered with a sash, whits
washed, they will grow very easily.
Some kind of plants will grow best
and only from cuttings of the roots,
such as the Paulownia. Spireas, Black
berries, Raspberries, &c. Peach will
grow readily in Georgia from c1ttings,
but here the winters are too long and
cold. The most favorable state for
cuttings to grow in, is when tfte roots
will form and not produce any foliage.
Layers are so near cutting that he.
said he would mention a few ways
that were practiced by bending
branch down and covering with earth
late in the fall, they will root the first
year; to facilitate the roofing they are
partly cut through, so that the earth
can come in contact with the inner
bark. He showed a Pink which had
been treated in that way in August,
and now it was a perfect mass of roots,
and ready to be separated from the
old plant and put in a pot; if this had
not been cut, it would not have root
ed in two years. Layers from ever
greens can only be made while the sap
is in full vigor, for if cut at any other
time. they will throw out the resinous
matter and prevent the sap from forps
ing roots. This is why so few of the
gardeners succeed in raising choice
cYergreens.

you, men of Ohio, that in six months, in three

bidding they do, will be the advocates of the
eternal dissolution of the Union, and denounce
all who oppose it as enemies to the peace Of

The Navy Department has just taken steps
for very important addition TO our naval arm
having issued proposals for the construction
aud complete equipment Of fifteen gunboats !;
speed not less than thirteen knots, to be de-
livered within four months. The confidence
which has led the Department to make this
large addition TO the navy, in this particular
baild Of warship is fully justified BY the mag
nifcent service which our gunboats have re1-
dered in every theatre OF naval action, both on
the Western waters and along the Atlantic
aud Gulf coasts. The "guaboats" have long
been the terr or Of the rebels, who make them
the seapcgOat for all manner of discomGtareS
and defeats and indeed they hardly now pre-

are at hand. Though nothing is better
demonstrated than that wooden walls ars
powerless against iron sides, il would be quite
TO overshoot the marx to claim that there are
