Col. Cobb's Official Report.


Col. Cobb's official report to General
Hancock of the part taken by the 9Th
Wisconsin Regiment in the recent move
ment Of McClellan's army toward the
James river, very clearly written, COM
plete and satisfactory document, waa re-
ceived at the Adjutant Generals office
some little time since. A modest init
nation Of the Colonel accompanying the
copy sent to General GAYLORD has pre-
vented its publ in full We are per-
united to make the following extracts. At
ter reviewing the march and the conflicts
through which thu Regiment passed, Col.
Cobb says:
"Ofthe officers and men, when on this
difficult, tolsome, and painful march, con-
Quoted themselves worthy Of honorable
mention, DR.. Joseph Craig, leader Of the
reglnental baud, stands prominent. NY
Lieut.. Colonel and Major being sick and
absent, and my Adjutant taking sick on
the march, l was absolutely alone so far as
iield and staff officers are concerned, at a
time, when, of all Others, their services were
Indispensable. In this strait | was FORUM
to indeed 10 have person near me of
such activity, intelligence and gallautry, as
Leader Craig. For his services on this
march, return him my thanks, and hope
to see him before the war is over with a
commission commensurate with bis merits.
! cannot speak too highly Of the conduct
Of Capt Fl. NJ. Wheeler, J. NJ. Bean, and
Horace Walker, for their perseverance and
discipline on the march; the latter, though
wounded, marched at the head OF his COM
pany and stood at his post throughout.
And, finally, return my sincere thanks to
the officers and men Of my com mand, who
followed their flag to this camp, and | re-
commend them, General, to your consider
alton.
q cannot close this report without
making honorable mention Of Lieut.. John
G. Clark. Regimental Quartermaster, who
at the commencement of the march, was
sent forward with the baggage train and
conyalescents who were able to walk. -
Always faithful, active and eflicient,-on
this occasion he discharged his diificult
and laborious duties, in manner far ex-
ceeding my most sanguine expectations
even Of him. lie brought up every pound
Of baggage and every man entrusted to
bis care, and | award to him lie full need
Of praise as faithful, deserving anG gal
lalt officer"

BE- Read the following from an edito-
rial in Foney's Press Of Aug 1st; speak
ing Of the rebel successes and guerilla
raids. Mr.. Forney says:
GLOW can this be stopped Directly
not at all, or at best but imperfectly by
the citizens Of the places attacked. Di-
rectly, easily. A mill Of able bodied
men await but one word to rally them
selves with US boldly, as they are With US
ia heart. A magnificent black blister as a
counter irfitantl A guerrilla power such
as the world has never seen. One which,
once fairly set in motion, would call back
not only the hordes that are desolating
Northern homes, but divert the arms Of
the whole rebel army. Will we use it?
Nor shall we 90 on for another year, pay
ing bitterly in blood for our culpable ir-
resolution? Shall we be content with
general statements, as TO the desirabIeness
Of using .,ery means that will secure our
salvation,' and so humbug ourselves into
the belief that we ara very bold! The
cause is too great to permit such namby-
pambyism; the crisis is too imminent to
let us dawdle with general terms. We
want specific measures of she boldest kind.
We must save the State at any cost; swal-
low our prejudices, shut our hearts to the
suggestions Of the rebel devil IN the shape
Of criminal leniercy, and not only strike
ourselves, but make those strike whose flu
ture is as dependent on this struggle as our
ownn
It is not Wendell Philips nor Horace
Greely who utters this. In them it would
be lanatieism. But coming from pru-
dent, discreet, conservative Douglas Dem
ocrat it is but the utterance of a truth
wrung BY disaster and stern necessity.

S1IKs.-No person should over wiring or
crush pieoeof silk when it is wet, because
the creases thus made will remain forever,
ii the silk is thick aud hard The way to
wash silk is to spread it smoothly upon a
clean board, rub white soap upoa it and
brush it with clean hard brush The silk
must be rubbed until all the grease is ex-
tracted, then the soap should be brushed
off with clean cold water, applied 10 both
sides. The cleansing Of silk is very nice
operation. Most Of The colors are liable to
Be extracted with washing in hot suds es-

from running. Alcohol and camphene
mixed together isused for removing grease
from silk.

Activity Of Maryland Rebels.

The rebels in Maryland have within a
few days days manifested reyiying life,
have held secret meetings, made boastful
prophecies, ard threatened Union men.
Some of the newspapers in the lower coun-
ties publish notices recruiting rendezvous
in Virginia for rebel regiments, adsertises
con enient rcutes notthward for deserters
from the national army. An organized
underground railroad carries deserters
through Prince Georges county by way Of
Fair Haven. Gen. Wadsworth followed up
the track of this railroad to the houses OF
two large plantirs belonging to the most
aristocratic families in Maryland, and ar
rested ahe proprietors, VIM. Hill, brother Of
Clement Hill Of this city, and one Of the
Bowies.
Measures Of precaution have been taken
in other directions, and stringent punish

rebel tendencies of the shareholders dare
to take the form Of more open action. II
is believed that if Gems Wadswonh and
Wool had been allowed ensrgetically to
follow the dictates of their own judgment
in all respects, before now, axes would have
been laid at more than one rsher tree in
Maryland, And estates beongiig 10 lead

the President by the cotsfscation act to
seize, would have passed into the posses
sion Of the government.

A GEOLOGICAL CuRIosITY- Our at

frog, which is on exhibition for a few days
only at the grocery store Of J. L. Robin
son. A miner named Schouler, it seems,
took a large lump of mineral from lis
diggings, and from some momentary inn
pulse broke it open. In the centre Of the
piece Of gaena this frog frogs mummy

H. Stanly, North Side physician, who is
already known to readers as under arrest
for the seduction Of b young girl, was again
arrested on Sunday night, chaged nwith
cheering for Jeff. Davis and dissuading par

main until the war is over, if the charges
preferred against him are true. This DR..
Stanley is an Englishman who came to this

How hing bayid Used a SLAVE Of the Eaeng as q
Scout

Ed. CHTcAGo TRIBUNE There is an
other book of wars which our generals
would do well to study along with Har-
dee's Tactics. Some of them, who have
so nearly apotheosized the slaves that they
dare not use the sacred thing In warfare
might be relieved in their consciences hy
an example from Holy Writ. The ANAL
ekites had invaded Judah. burned The city
of Ziglag, and carried the women and child
rem away captive, among them Dayid's
two wives. The King inquired Of tbs
Lord and gained permission TO pursue the
invaders with bis army. While on the
march he found an Egyptian slave, who
had lain three days and three nights upon
the field, having been left sick bv his mas

"Can'st thou bring me own to this com
pany ~ An6 he said, "Swear unto me
by God, that thou will neither kill me, moi
deliver me into tie hands Of my master
and | will bring thee down to this compa-

led him down TO the camp Of the enemy
who were eating, and drinking, and dane

And David smote them from morning till
night, and not one escaped except four
hundred who fled on camels. The cap
tiyes and all the spoil were regained and
the flocks and herds Of the enemy were
driven of. All Of this will be found ID

Col. LORD ON CoNFIscArIoN.-At the
war meeting held in Watertown last Thurs
day evening, Col. Lord, the gallant com
mander Of the New York SSH regiment,
and we'll known as a Pro-Shyery Amer-
can leader at Slate and National Conyen-
tions, made the following speech:
Fifteen months ago, he said, in this hall
at similar meeting clergyman express
ed the conviction that the war would not
end till slavery was annihilated. He felt
then ike rising to rebuke him. But he
had come TO see the subject in the same
light now. He believed in coafiscating
the slaves Of Bebels and employing them
in the Government service The Rebels
could not maintain themselves long, but
for the work and fighting they get OFT Of
their slaves. He thoaght we had been too
tender toward the Rebels by half it was
time to pay them back in their owa coin.
The Colonel was ch eered at frequent In
teryals.

GRrEFg OF RELIGIOUS SEcEsH. When
Major General Wallace was in command
here, he TOOK military possession OF the
Second PresDy.. Church as post
chapel, for the accommodation Of the army
and of strangers. The church had no pas
tor; it had elected Rev. DR.. Grundy, nam
" because he was suspected # loyalty to
the Union, and had it transferred to Dr..
Waddell, who preached and prayed that
the Lord would "hun back the Northern
army to their corrupt families and homes
to give them aconfsderate and treasonahie

On Major General Grant for the delivery OF
the keys into bis possession. Gen. Grant
replied, "when you retrace your steps and
put Dr.. Grundy back into his own pulpit,
the house will be at your service again. In
this house on every Sabbath the untranPle-
ed word Of God is preached u. liberty by
some c aplains of those very regiments

New Discoveries IN CALIFORNIA
Almost every day brings to light some
new discovery on the Pacific coast, until it
is fast becoming apparent that the resour-
ces of California are unbounded in ex
tent and ilimitable in charact r. The gold
aud silver mines of the Pacific slope have
excited the wonder Of the world, and IN
the productions Of the precious metals We
have no rival. Coal OF good quality has
been found, and the mines are rapidly be-
ing developed. Iron aud copper are claim
mo attention, and will soon be regarded as
the most useful and valuable of our own
productions in the aid they will lend to do
nestle manufactures and the useful arts
We have been shown letter recently re-
ceIved from the Southern coast, announc-
ing the discovery in Santa Barbara Of an
immense sprng of coal oil, said to be ofthe
highest quality for illumination and lubri-
eating purposes. The writer says that BY
a little labor and expense, this spring can
be made to yield between 5000 and 1000
gallons per day. The liquid is said to pos
sess at least go per cent Of coal oil, and
from the amount Of inlamable gas given
off at light temperature, it IS believed to
peculiarly adapted to the manufacturing of
gas for street or other Illuminating pur
poses, instead Of the ordinary coal gas now
used 1t is gratifying to be able to chron-
icle such discoveries, for it shows that while
our sister States are plunged in the trials
and troubles Of war, California is adyanc-
ing rapidly in all the elements of prosper
ity. A hundred fields are still open to the
industrious adsenturer, and discovery is
fact beginning to light some new resource
of this most wonderful country.-,San Eraie
