W ORCE.S TIE R:
FRIDAY. SEPT. 10. 1862.

The Boston Courier, speaking of the re-
ported defeat of the rebel army in Mary land'
says: 1--WE do not imagine that it is to end
the rebeiion but it will place it in relations
far more favorable than was yet to be expect
ed for the future negotiations Of peace" What
does the Courier mean by future negotia-
tons of peace?' Negotiation between two
hostile nations is very proper; but what ia
meant by negotiations of peace" between the
government and an atrocious rebellion that
seeks to destroy it? The purpose of such
negotiations must be either to settle terms for
a division of the Union, or to arrange COM
promise with the rebellion as high contract
ing marty entitled to treat with the govern
ment on equal terms, through its recognized
leaders.
The loyal people of the country intend to
crush this rebellion, and take measures to
make another like it impossible. Their pur-
pose is to sustain the government to the end,
against this Internal conspiracy to destroy it.
They have nothing but punishment in store
Tor the rebel leaders, and will accept nothing
from the rebellion but unconditional submits
sion. The Boston Courier means something
different from this. Instead of crushing the
rebel conspirators it would make terms with
them, and crush somebody else, we suppose.
Therefore it talks Of negotiations of peace
with the rebellion.

The scene OF Hostilitiss in MARYLAND.

battles.
The Scene of Hosfilitios in Maryland.
Our fellow citizen, Henry S. Washburn,
Esq, returned home yesterday directly from
the seat of war in Maryland. Both mayor
Aldrich and Mr.. w. were in Frederick last
Sunday, having gone thither with hospital
supplies, in behalf of the sanitary commits
sion. The city of Frederick, which is some
| forty five miles northwest from Washington,
and about twenty miles north from Harpers
Ferry. contains ten or twelve thousand lnhaD-
itants, and was on Sunday the scene OF very
great interest All its avenues were throngea
with troops and supply and ammunition trains,
while the roar Of cannon from early dawn to
| late in the evening constantly reminded the
inhabitants OF the fearful contest raging among
the mountains west of the city. The stars
and stripes were flung to the breeze from
public and private buildings, and cordial re-
cepticn was extended to the federal forces.
In fact, feeling of relief was appa-
rent on all sides that the city was
free from the rebels and once more under the
protection of the Union. The rebels seized
whatever they could lay their hands upon, in
the way of food, clothing, shoes, &C., paying
for the same in confederate scrip, which was
generally considered worthless. Mr.. w. met
Mr.. Ball, chaplain of the Massachusetts 2ltt
regiment, on Sunday evening, who informed
him that the Massachusetts seth, Col. Bow
man, was within ten miles of the city, march
ing on to join the main army. Mr.. W. left
Frederick at eleven o'clock Monday, for
Washington, to urge forward hospital sup
plies, for which there is an urgent necessity.
At that time, the wounded and many rebel
prisoners had reached the city. Of the latter,
OF whom he saw some five hundred, Mr.. w.
says more ragged, starved, barefooted crew
he never beheld. Mistaking Mr.. Aldrich and
himself for citizens, they cried out loudly for
food, but as they had so completely skinned
the city, but little food remained, and no
assurance of relief could be given them, until
our trains with supplies could reach the city.
And yet, in the language of the officer who
had them in charge, these men would fight
like the very ID. Mr.. w. passed between
Frederick and Washington, some fifteen thou
sand new recruits, chiefly from Pennsylvania,
who were marching forward with all possible
haste to join McClellan's army. The weather
was very hot all last week, and the marches
over those mountains and dusty roads wa.
very fatiguing; STILL as whole, the men borC
| them with remarkable pluck and fortitude
Mr.. w. learned at farm house at which h,
stopped, that Mr.. Aldrich and himself, in go
ing to Frederick on Saturday, unwittingly
rode into the immediate vicinity of the rebe
scouts and pickets, by leaving the main roaC
for few miles to avoid the troops and army
wagons which completely filled up the roat
before them.
Mr.. Aldrich is expected home to-day, and
report, embodying the substancs of their OBJ
servations during their absence, will be giver
to the public.

The engineers of the respective trains saw
the danger to which they were rushing, and
each blew the whistle, almost simultaneously,
a moment before they struck. The shock
was terrible, smashing the engines and piling
them with the tenders, &C., in a confused
heap. The lights were extinguished by the
shock, and scene of confusion ensued such
as is rarely witnessed. The passengers were

THE BATTLE AUTUMN OF 1862.
Ths flags of war like storm-birds fly.
lie charging trumpets blow;
Yet rolls othunder in the sky,
NO earthquake strives below,
And, calm and patient, Nature keeps
Her ancient promise we'll.
Though DER her bloom and greenness SWEEP
The battles breath of hell.
And still she walks in golden hours
Through harvest happy farms.
And still she wears her fruits and flowers
Like jewels on her arms.
What mean the gladness of the plain,
This joy of eve and morn,
The mirth that shakes the beard of grain
And yellow locks of corn!
All eyes may well be full of tears,
And hearts with hate are hot;
But even-paced come round the years.
And Nature changes not.
She meets with smiles our bitter grief.
WIN songs our groanS Of pain;
She mocks with tint of flower and leaf
The War-feld's crimson stain.
Still in the canAon's pause, we hear
Her sweet Thanksgiving psalm;
TOO near to God for doubt or fear,
She shares the eternal calm.
She knows the seed lies safe below
The fires that blast and burn;
For all the tears of blood we sow
She waits the rich return.
She sees with clearer eyes than Ours
The good of suffering born.
The hearts that blossom like her flowers
And ripen like her corn
Oh. give to us, ia times like these,
The vision OF her eyes:
And make her fields and fruited trees
Our golden prophecies
Oh give to us her finer earl
Above this stormy din,
We, too, would hear the bells of cheer
King peace and freedom in!

SENATOR SUMMERS REELECTION. = The

pose to resist the reelection of Mr.. Sum-
ner, says: "Such an attempt ought to be op-
posed by the people of Massachusetts as de-
cidedly as they would oppose an attempt to
place secession democrat in the gubernato-
rial chair of their state. Mr.. Summers pres
ence in the senate is Indispensable to the
proper management of an important branch
Of the public service. He is the only man in
congress whose acquaintance with foreign af-
fairs is extensive, accurate and minute-the
only man there who has an European reputa-
ton; and he is also one~of the very few of our
public men who are respected abroad. We
say nothing of his anti-slavery views, which
are those of large majority of his constitu-
ents, but contine ourselves, for the present,
to matters of another character; and we put
it to intelligent men whether it is wise, at this
time to seek the removal from the senate of a
man of Mr.. Summers peculiar and well en-
ployed knowledge merely to crafty the per
sonal feelings of few discontinued spirits p
