Didn't everybody know that we wanted more
men? Then why not say so?y Now, and quick,
tell the truth-why we want them, and how
soons. Appeal to the people, and let them know
what we require for the purposes of the corn-

treat your enemies as enemies and the worst of
enemies. Avail yourselves, like men, of eyery
power which God has placed in your hands to
accomplish your purposes, within the reach of
civilized warfare. But the man who Hampers

ECONOMICAL TO THE LAsr.-The Kennebec
Journal gives the following instance of the
practice of economy by drowning man:

we hope it will not down until they shall

sion and demand the surrender to US OF
this species of property, if Of no other.
Why does government hesitate to confi5-
cate? The voice of the loyal north is
calling for it. All the leading Union
men Of the south, such as Andrew John
son, Etheridge and Maynard of Tonnes
see, are loud in their demands for it, and
say that it is the mos! effectual thing that
can be done to stop the war. What
sense is there in letting them keep their
property to oppose us with ? They strip
Union men of everything, why not zee
strip them Retaliation, and that too Of
the severest kind, is an argument ia favor
of the Union that they can readily com
prehend.
Although Tennessee is delivered from
secession armies, and Nashville, their
capital, is occupied by Northern troops,
and is the headquarters of Gen. johnson,
yet the rank secessionist is safer to-day
in that state and that city than the most
devoted Union man that lives. How
shameful and how huuiIiating! Why
is il so? Because our government is so
fearful of being impolitc, so cowardly
lest it shall do some thing that will not
appear exactly right on the record, that
it plays the poltroon and allows the
shameless rascals TO live under the pro-
tec'iog folds of the flag they have des-
ecrattd, in the full enjoyment of their
homes and property, slaves and all, while
Union men are hunted down like dogs
and driven from their homes, and, in
hundreds of cases, have suffered martyr
dom because they dared to resist the tide
of rebellion that has subdued the whole
South. East Tennessee, the home Of
Parson Brownlow, is to-day Witnessing
enormities at the hands of traitors that
would shame savage, and this, too, in
a state claimed TO be redeemed from the
rebels. We think there is too much of
a conciiatory disposition in our govern
ment--too much trusting in the winning
rays Of love--too great IL faith in the
beauties of holiness TO amount to much

LATER.

New YORK, May 26. The Heralds
correspondent shows that previous o May
400 men had been added to the rebel
force in the Shenandoah valley, and that
the whole force was supposed to number
$4,000 or 10000 men with "a pieces Of
artillery. On the 9th of May there was
large rebel force in the mountains in
their vicinity, but Gen. Banks had enough
men to keep them in check. Gen.Shields
and Gen. Geary were being withdrawn
from Gen. Banks, and transferred to Gen.
Mcdowell. Two days previously
union had been effected between rebel
Generals Johnston. Ewell, and Jackson,
and they were marching upon the divi-
ded and reduced forces of Banks.
Prompt efforts have been made to sue
cor Banks, and il is supposed to-day that
Gen. Miles will have reinforced Banks
with a considerable force, 1t is reported
that Col. Henley and his Lieut.. Col, Of
the LIST Mary land, and all the regiment
except forty, were killed in the attack Of
jackson upon their position.
The T1b,me's dispatch from Freder-
icksbuag, oath, says no rebel pickets have
been seen to-day. Contrabands state
that all the rebels have fallen back to-
wards Richmond. There are only two
companies of cavalry at Spottsylvania
Court House, and no infantry seen in
that vicinity since last week.
The World says the immense rebel ar
mics which made their appearance so
suddenly in Western Virginia gave color
to rumor in Kentucky newspaper that
it is the intention Of the rebel leaders 10
withdraw from the coast and invade the
Northern States, it possible, in two col
umns-one by way Of Pennsylvania,

all. The average price-sO,5O bushel
makes the proceeds amount to 5000.
Of corn one man will tend thirty acres.
Fifty bushels to the acre (Which is low
estimate, as il is not uncommon to get
seventy-fve to one hundred) is 1900
bushels. AT $0,2j bushel (the present
price, this would bring 1875. So you
see the truth was spoken, but left without
the proper explanation.

HEADQUARTERS. May 2!

Gen. Negley's brigade is now en-
camped 5 miles beyond Bottoms bridge.
To obtain this position they were forced
to engage the rebel General Stewart,
with his brigade, composed of five regi-
ments of infantry, one of cavalry and
two batteries.
Our loss was two killed and six wound
ed. The officers engaged suppose the
rebel loss to be between fifty and sixty
killed. A number of their dead is left
on the field.
There is nothing of interest from the
vicinity of Richmond to-day. Contra
bands who came in to-day say that the
inhabitants of Richmond are leaving as
fast as they can for Dansville. All those
capable of bearing arms are compelled
to remain.
Very few soldiers are in the city, all
being in their camps.
