resting on White Oak Swamp, was
prolonged, and onr artillery aud
transportation trains we're ordered
10 prepare to move forward. That
night Gen. Casey was also directed
to destroy all the property at the
White House that could not he re-
moved; to transport the sick and
wounded to a place Of safety, and
10 retire himself and rejoin the
army on james River. Friday
night was thus actively and mourn
fully passed. Our loss, this day, in
killed, wounded, and missing is es-
timated at 1000 or upward.
We regret that want of space
prevents us continuing this graphic
description ofthe seven days battle.
There we're battles on Saturday,
Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday,
both sides suffering terribly. On
Tuesday, the enemy were repulsed
with great loss. As fast as the
rebel forces were cut to pieces other
troops were marched forward to fill
their places. They seemed to disre-
gard the lives of the men, and held
them under the hottest fire of our
artillery, and gunboats. The army
is now encamped on high rolling
ground. on the banks of the James
River, fifteen miles from Richmond.
Our loss in the whole of the battles,
is estimated at 10000, while that
of the enemy is supposed to be at
least 80, 900.

Oh! friends, could you realize the

could almost shed tears of blood.

was tremulous with inexpressible
emotion, whose beard was matted
with his own precious blood--the
crimson drops were trickling from
his wound even then-"Oh, my

pressed upon every side, destruction

and far into the night which had
passed, turned into the forest to
hide his manly grief.
THE SITUATION.
You remember that our army
was pressing hard upon Richmond.
Every communication to the press
assured you that it was not strong
enough to execute the task. For
weeks, the symptoms of insufficient
cy of power manifeStly increased.
But the army pressed SO closely
upon Richmond that it could not
be withdrawn without great perth

to "do all he could" with what he
had, while he hoped for aid.

Correspondence between the President
and the Governors Of the States.
W AsHINGToN, July /.

WASHINGToN, july l..
The following correspondence
between the President and the
Governors of the several States will
explain itself:
TO the PreSident:-The undersign.
ed Governors of States of the u
MON, impressed with the belief that
the citizens of the States which
they respectively represent, are of
one accordin the hearty desire that
the recent successes of the Federal
arms may be followed up by meas
ures which must insure the speedy
restoration of the Union, and be-
lieving that in view of the impor-
tant military movements now in
progress, and the reduced condition
of our effective forces in the field,
resulting from the usual and una
voidable casualties of the service,
that the time has arrived orprompt
and vigorous measures to be adopt
ed by the people in support of the
great interests committed to your
charge, we respectfully request, if
it meets with your entire approval,
that youat once call upon the sew
eral States for such number of men
as may be required to fill up all the
military organizations now in the
field, and add to the armies hereto
fore organized such additional num-
Der of men as may, in your judg-
ment, be necessary to garrison and
hold all of the numerous cities and
military positions that have been
captured by our armies, and to
speedily crush the rebellion that
still exists in several of the South
ern States, thus practically restoring
to the civilized world our great
and good Government. All believe
that the decisive moment is near at
hand. and to that end the people of
the United States are DESTROYS to
aid promptly in furnishing all re-
Inducements that you may deem
ueedful to sustain our Government.

WASHINGTON, July 1.
Gentlemen:-Fully concurring in
the wisdom of the views expressed
to me in so patriotic a manner by
you in the communication of the
18th day of June, l have deter,
mined to call into the service al
additional force of three hundred
thousand men. I suggest ant
recommend that the troops should
be chiefly of infantry. The quots
of your State would be -. J
trust that they msy be enrolled
without delay, SO as to bring this
unnecessary and injurious civil wal
to a speedy and satisfactory con-
clusion. An order fixing the quo.
ia of the respective States will be
issued by tho War Department to-
morrow.

Weekly Summary.

Our readers will see that we
have given them much serious val
news this week.
Christy'S great work on pulpit
Politics" and Parson Brownlow's
twaddle, are on our table for re-
view, but we cannot at present
touch their contents, but will do
so as soon as possible.
We call the earnest and careful
attention of our readers to the
Scriptural, elaborate, and really clev-
er letter we insert this week, on
the slave question. The letter is
worth its weight in gold ; take care
of it it will keep.
The Resolutions passed at the
greatest Democratic Convention
ever held in the city of Columbus
on the 4th of this month, are of SC
grave, momentous, and solemn
a character, as to lead even the
thoughtless, as we'll as the reflect
ing and thoughtful, to ponder and
resolve. Our country is in danger
as a great Republic, of being swept
from the face of the earth. The
Democrats Of the North are now
in the Providence of God, called
upon to prepare for the Ballot-box
and save the United States from
being shaken to pieces and shat
tered to fragments. Now, or never
tie country must be saved, anc
that by the old and tried Demo
Gratis. For Gods sake-for Amer
ica's sake-for the worlds sake
let US have no "Jim Crows" jump
ng and turning about amongst us.
To save the country, restore peace
harmony and prosperity, and t.
reunite the North and the South
and thus stay the shedding o
human blood, we must all be Q
one mind, and strive together TO
the salvation of the United State:
We have a rod in pickle for tn
back of the Editor of the Eato'
Register, but it will keep till mex
week !; and as we mean to skin tn
fellow alive, we wish to Jet tn
weather become a little cooler be
fore we put him through tn
skinning operation. The Edito
of the Register says, speaking o
the war: eve must have NOR,
blood" Why, then, does he no
so Mt once to the battlefield. The
President wants three hundred
thousand more men-but the Abo
lition traitors and real secessionist
are far more apt to talk, than the.
are to fight on the field of battle.

with vigor on the extreme right,
held by General Sykes division,
composed of General Warmers,
Colonel Buchanan's and Colonel

For one hour and a half our left
line withstood this terrible shock
of battle. Brigade after brigade
of the enemy was hurled against
our devoted, daring, dying heroes.
The gallant Col McLane and Maj.
Maggie, of the SD Pennsylvania,
fell death stricken, while line Off
GERS we're stricken down. by scores,
and men by the hundred but they
wavered not. Without q single
reinforcement, from first to last,
this gallant brigade (Butterfeld's)
fought on, cleared its front from
the enemy time after time, until
suddenly they found themselves
outlanked on the right, the enemy
breaking through Martindale's left
came surging down the hill to cut
off and capture the struggling
brigade. "Once more, my brave
men," cried Butterield, and rally
ing again, the men cut their way
through the opposing host, and fell
back on the river. At sunset,
tidiDgs of a gloomy character had
been received from Porter. For
the first time we heard q whisper
of d serious determination on the
part of General Mcclellan to
change his base Of operations to
James River.
During the night our bridges
were blown up, and the crossings
