The Gallant Maine Seventh.

In the great battle of Antietam Creek, the
Maine 7th covered itself with new glories--
Maj Hyde had his horse shot twice, and re-
ceived very slight wound himself in the
hand. The 7th is now the body-guard OF Gen.
Franklin and Gen. Smith, made so in special
honor, the highest they could bestow. Gen.
Smith told the "boys" that he had "never
seen, heard, or read of more gallant feat of
arms than they had performed; that the 7th
Maine had glory enough, and should now re-
main with him."
Major Hyde writes us, in a private letter,
that he thinks among others, the bravery, and
good conduct of Capt. John w. Claiming, of
Kendalrs Mills, deserves mention. He was
conspicuous for his gallantry. Acting Adju-
tant Haskell was severely wounded in both
legs, but is now at Chambersburg doing well.
His behavior was the admiration of all who
saw him. He was mounted on a large white
horse-a shining mark for the rebels. His
horse was shot three times before he himself
fell. Major Hyde says, l could mention all
the officers and men in detail, for special acts
of courage"

The PURPOSE AND AIM.-The Advertiser
of Friday last, reminds the "edtors of the
Press" that the address of the Massachusetts
men, in favor of Citizens Convention. has
'these very instructive and truthful words:'
1t is no time for party or party names, party
cries or party issues He trhO raises such is a
traitor TO the people, TO the gocernmeat, to the
best hopes ofhundnity. There must be one
purpose, one aim.
The truthfulness of the words is admitted
and appreciated and their instructiveness is
greatly aided when it is remembered that the
lone purpose" and zone aim" of the fifteen
hundred respectable gentlemen who have sign
ed the address referred to, is to kill Off John
A. Andrew and Charles Sumner, and this sim
ply because they do not speak of negro sla-
very with reverence, or handle it with kid
gloves; and while pretending to ignore party
and party issues, the new movement is party
movement, and nothing but party movement,
to bring into power all the odds and ends, and
fag ends, of all the cast-off parties of the last
half-a-dozen years. John A. Andrew will be
elected in spite of this lily concealed and yru-
lent party movement against him and the Bos-
ton aristocracy and "respectability," even when
aided by the Portland Advertiser, can't prevent
it. Massachusetts is not prepared TO drink OBJ
lations to slavery from Southern spit-boXes,
nor will she do it.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25, 1862.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25, 1862.
EDITORS OF THE PRESS 1t having been
announced through the public journals that
Major Mann had been dismissed from the serv-
ice on account of absence without leave, /
deem 1t but an act of justice to the Major,
and his numerous friends in Maine, that brief
statement Of the facts and circumstances con-
nected with the affair, should be made public.
The Major received despatch from Maine on
Monday, the day he left Washington, notify
ing him that it was necessary for him TO visit
Portland, to attend to some very important
business, involving pecuniary interest of con-
siderable Importance to himself The Major
at once applied to the Paymaster General for
permission TO be absent for few days, and
was there informed that furloughs in the Pay
Department could be granted only by the Sec
retary of War. He then went to the War OF.
nee, but Secretary Stanton and others connect
ed with the office were SO busiy engaged that
his matter could not be attended to. Major
Mann then consulted with several of the old
paymasters here, and they all, with one accord,
expressed the opinion that no possible injury
TO the public service could be inflicted by an
absence of few days The Major was in
formed the very day he left Washington, by
the Paymaster General, that probably no funds
for the payment of troops would be furnished
for some time. Indeed, there was no evidence
whatever that his services as Paymasterwould
be needed till long after the time he had ap-
pointed to return. He was absent but three
days and half, and when he returned he
found that his name had been reported to Sec
retary Stanton, and that in consequence of be-
ing absent without leave he had been dismissed
from the service.
The Major drew up brief statement of his
case and presented, it to Major Fry, Paymaster
General, who very cordially endorsed the pa
per to Secretary Stanton, adding that he hoped
the paper would receive the Secretarys most
Mann conld be restored, he had no doubt he
would make most efficient officer, As soon
as Secretary Stanton, in the multiplicity OF his
business, reached the case he ordered that
Major Mann be reinstated. Such are the cir
cumstances of the Majors case, as related by
persons of reliable authority. l may add that
my acquaintance with Major Mann enables me
to say that no officer in the service desires
more sincerely to perform faithfully every du-
ty pertaining to his Office and no officer would
be more reluctant to do an injury to the pub
lie service. Major Mann is held in the highest
estimation by all the officers of the Pay De-
partment and by all who have had the pleas
ure Of forming his acquaintance since he has
been in the service, and / have had occasion
to know that his restoration is regarded by
those who, under strict sense of military du-
ty, were Obliged to report him, as an acts OF
perfect justice which the circumstances of his
case clearly warranted, and that it gives them
much pleasure to greet Major Mann once
more, as one of the most efficient and manly
Psymasters in the service.

NEW YORK REPUBLICAN CONVENTION
The following are taken from the resolutions
unanimously adopted by the recent New York
Republican State Convention
Resotred, That we urge upon the National
Government the prosecution of the war with
the utmost vigor and energy in the field and
with the utmost unity and decision in the cabi-
net, by all the means which the God of battles
has placed in its power, bearing ever in mind
that a revolt so wanton, so malignant, and so
pernicious, is only TO be overcome by the
strong arm of force.
Res0iced, That we hail with the profound
est satisfaction the recent proclamation of the
President of the United States, enforcing the
laws of the land against the property of trail
tors in arms, and declaring his intention to
emancipate the slaves of all rebels who do not
return to their allegiance by the LIST of Janu-
airy, 1863
Resoired. That our heartfelt gratitude is due
to the gallant officers and men of our loyal ar
mics and fleets wherever they may be; that
we tender to them our highest admiration for
their heroic courage, patient endurance, and
indomitabe zeal, and we promise them our
earnest and unceasing efforts to relieve their
dlstresses strengthen their arms, fortify their
hearts, and provide for the future well being OF
themselves and their families.

plain of fair and Legitimate criticisms But
when public speaker appeals to class as he
did TO Irshmen; when he breaches the sense

will throw them into competition with the
free laborers of the North; and when he charg-
es that abolttionism has made the grass grow
on the wharves of Boston, then he becomes a
demagogue, and mschievous one at that

litical purposes, statements which no sensible

TERRIBLE LOSSES IN LATE BATTLES
LOngstreet severely Wounded.
NOTIFICATIONS AT WINCHESTER.

NEW YORK, Sept. 27.
The Times has news from Winchester TO
Wednesday. The main body of the rebel
army is concentrated there, numbering 1900
men. They are much demoralzed and suffer-
ing for want Of food. Their loss in Maryland
is acknowledged to be terrible. Pryor's Brig
ade of 200 men had 1857 killed, wounded and
missing. Longstreet's division lost over half
its number. McCall's division lost 1880 out of
2300. The rebel officers and surgeons confess
a loss of $4,000, including prisoners, of whom
from 1900 to 5000 were killed.
Pryor narrowly escaped death. His horse
was killed by shell. The rebels had infor-
nation of our intended capture Of Lees wagon
train, and posted four brigades on the west
side of Ashby's Gap in such a manner as
would annihilate our force had it been attempt
ed. Winchester is being strongly fortified.
All the negroes in the neighborhood have been
impressed for the purpose. The rebels are ap-
prehensive that their communications and sup
plies will be cut off by movement from Wash
ington on Gordonsville. Longstreet is so se-
verely wounded in the shoulder by piece of
shell that it is feared amputation win be nee
essary. He is reported TO have lain on the
field insensible till Wednesday night, when he
was discovered by party burying the dead.
All the public buildings and most of the pri-
vate dwellings in Winchester are used as hos
pitals. About 6000 are there, and large
number were sent further down the valley.

New YORK, Sept 27.
A rumor from Washington says the Presi-
dent contemplates issuing proclamation max
ing Florida cotton plantation, inviting labor
ers, black and white, to settle there for that
purpose, who will have ample protection from
the army and navy; the State Constitution to
be put aside temporarily, and Florida reduced
to a territorial condition. This movement is
said to be preliminary to the policy to be
States.
Reports from Apalaehicola say that two
rebel iron-clad gunboats are nearly ready for
sea, under the command of Catesby Jones,
who says he will sink every gunboat on the
