Yesterday morning, as some three stragglers
from the One Hundred and Forty-ifth Pennsyl-
vania regiment were quietly vending their way
towards our encampment, when in the vicinity
Of Salem, some eight miles from here, they met
with some strolling bands from Whites caval-
Ty, who arrested and then paroed them. They
reached here last evening, will probably remain
here until their muster rolls are made out, and
then return TO their homes, to he sent TO fight
the Indians.

When speaking of this regiment, we neglect

Our New Commander.

We have every confidence In the ability of
our new commander, Gen. Burnside and fancy
that with him as our leader, the motto will not
be, "Wait and dig" but, "March and fight"
Evidences are, on every hand, that pressing for
ward is to be the new tactics adopted. All are
now under marching orders, and when our new
leader has well studied and dgested the plans
for the present campaign, VIC feel that he will
see them well, speedily and promptly carried
out, until success has crowned his efforts.

y meeting of Abolitionist was held at
Cincinnati, on Monday evening OF last
week, and the following resolutions
were passed
"Resolced, That wc will hope and trust
that the President will not be willing, by
annulling the order of Gen. Hunter, to
take upon his shoulders the odium of re-
enslaying hundreds of thousands Of hu.
man beings who, unless martial law is a
solemn farce; are as free as the President
and his Cabinet
"Resoired, That in our belief, the true
war'cry of America is, Mercy to the
South-Death to Slavery"
The above is the real sentiments of c
large majority of the men who brand
Democrats as "Seccssionistsl"

All Right---AII wrong.

The republican State committee of
Maine has called Convention Of the par

of June next, tonominate candidate TO-
Governor
1t is all right for republicans to call
State Conventions, but when the Democ-
iacy exercise that right all Abolition Re,
publicanism raises howl, prolonged and
terrific. The republicans OF Maine have
more backbone than their brethren ol
Ohio They sail under their true colors
they do not put on any mask! The De-
mocracy intend to call Conventions, nom
mate tickets, work for them, and Aboli
tionism cannot prevent it, under ony Pfec
whdteper -SeReca 1dpertiSsf.

90 and Vote.

At the present time there are hundreds
of good Union men in this county, who
are for the Union as it was and the Con-
stitution as it is, who have heretofore
voted against the Democratic party, and
who are heartily sick of the Abolitionism
of the Republican leaders, who will vote
the Democratic Union Ticket at the ap-
preaching election for Members of Con-
gress. Let all such men vote at the NOM
nations. They intend to vote at the
election for conservative Union mon and
it is right they should have voice in
making nominations.
The approaching election will be con.
test between conservatism and Abolition
ism, and all men, without regard to for
mcr political associations, who are op-
posed to the horosies of the majority in
Congress and in our State legislature will
stand shoulder to shoulder and battle for
the Constitution and the Union.

RcCnuIiMr Visible.

Last fall great many voted what was
called the Union ticket with pure motives,
surposing at the time that it was merely
an organization for faithful and honest
administration of the government, with
out any reference to party politics. But
these men now see that it was nothing
moro nor less than q trick to draw men
into tho support of extreme abolition
measures, and to promote the selfish ends
of scheming politicians in the Republican
party. Evory act of the majority of our
State Legislature fully demonstrates this,
The men who were entrapped are almost
unanimous in their denunciations Of the
trickcry which was imposed upon them

The Rebels again in Possession
OF the ShCmamdOuh Valley.

New YoRK, May 26.-Tho Heralds
correspondent from Banks Division,
writes that seven thousand men had been
added to the force in the Shenandoah
Valley, and that the whole force was said
to number from eighteen to twenty thou
sand, with thirty-four pieces of artillery,
ono Of which was n 24-pounder rined
gun.
On the 0th of May he said there was
large rebel force in the mountains or
their vicinity, but that General Banks
had enough men to keep them in check I;
but it appears that on the 18th both Gen
eral Shields and General Geary were
withdrawn from General Banks COM
mand, and their troops transierrc to
McDowell's.
In letter OF the 18th, we find these
Generals and their forces had left to join
Mcdowell, and that two days previously
union had been effected between the
commands of the rebel Generals John
son, jackson and Ewell, and they were
marching upon the divided and reduced
forces of Banks. The telegraph now
brings us the intelligence that General
Banks has fallen back before a superior
force Of the rebels, who are occupying
the whole Of the Shenandoah Valley,
which has cost us so much trouble to res
cue from their clutches.

Dom. get zap Party Strife.

The Republican papers and leaders are
indignant that the Democracy should
keep up their Old Union organization!-
The can agitate the Niger Question and
force upon Congress the principles of the
Chicago Platform-can demand that in
the Administration of the Government
their creed shall be applied, but the mo-
ment the Democracy talk of nominating
tickets, or organize their forces, these
men deprecate party strife, and thunder
their epthets a: Democrats! "Don't get
mp party fcelingl Let there be no party,
but the young honest and virtuous Re-
publican partyl" Let that party have
power whichaccordng to Dawes, repub-
lcan member of Congress, can steal moro
in one gear than the Democracy expen-
ded in administering tho Government
four years.--Seaeeo AdpertiSer.

Rebuilding Democracy.

Our neighbor of the RepaJhcdR seems
to doubt the necessity for restoring the
Dem ocratic party to power. lie asks:
"Do our Democratic friends propose in rcstor-
ing thei. party TO power and the country to peace
aud prosperity, to reinstatc the former leaders oil
that country saving institution ~
1t is proposed, wherever found proper
to rcinstatc such former leaders as have
proven true to the Union and the Consti
tuition in every emergency. The Union
and the Constitution is the foundation
upon which the Democratic party has ev-
er rested, and it is for devotion to these
that Republican editors snecriugly call
the party "country-saying institution"
Many men have from time to time de-
serted the Democratic party to become
worshippers at the shrine of Abolition
ism, and instead of clearing the flag and
keeping step to the music Of the Union"
they have given their adhesion to the
disunon flags the Republican party car
ried in 1856. Others, under the leader
ship Of JEFF. DAVIS, deserted and defeat.
cd the Democratic party, and took ref
uge under the stars and bars carried by
Southern rebels. Both these classes OF
men have so far fallen from grace that
they can never be rcinstated in the Dem.
ocra ic party. Democracy will not fell
lowship traitors, whether from the
North or the South, the East or the West
Undying devotion to the country, il
peace and in war, in prosperity aad adj
yersity, is the chief characteristic of tho
Democratic party.
The Democratic party should be re
stored to power that abolition and seces
sion may be put down, that the Unioi
may be restored to what it was in TIN
palmy days Of Democratic Administra
tions, that the war be quickly ended an,
peace, fraternity and unity dwell through
out our borders. that every State, Mort
and South, may have and enjoy sue
rights and privileges as the national com
pact gave them, that the public plumber
ers may DC driven from the Treasury an
the peoples pockets saved from the enol
nous taxes which are about to be hcape
, upon them.

Illinois has, by State Convention,
called for that purpose, framed new
Constitution, to be submitted to the peo-
pie for adoption or rejection. Commits
sioncrs have been appointed and are now
in the field, taking the votes of the citi-
zen soldiers in the various Illinois rcgi-
mcnts, How nobly this contrasts with
the action of the Republican majority in

Report Of Gen. Banks.

WAsHINGToN, May 2Gth-Ihe follow
ing was received at the war department
at II p. NJ.
WmLIAMspoRT, p. NJ, My 26th.-
10 tile PreSideat:--I have the honor to
report the safe arrival of my command at
this place last evening at 10 o'clock, and
the passage of the 9th corps across the
river to-day with comparatively little loss
Of men in killed. wounded and missing
in the different combats in which my
command has participated since the
march from Strasburg on the 24th. !
am unable now to report but have great
satisfaction in being able to say, although
serious, our loss is much less than might
have been anticipated, considering the
very great disparity of forces engagep
and the long matured plan of the enemy
which aimed at nothing less than the en- p
tire capture of our forces. a detailed
statement will be forwarded as soon as
possible.
My command encountered the enemy
in constant succession of attacks, and
in wellcontested engagements at Srras-
Du' =, II, NCNlOll, anu III II point
between those places, and at Winchester,
The force of the enemy was estimated at
from 10, 600 to 10000 men, with very
strong artillery and cavalry supports -
My own force consisted of two Brigadcs,
less than 1000 strong all told, 1000
cavalry, 10 Parrot guns, 6 smooth borcs.
The substantial preservation Of the entire
supply train is a source of great gratiii-
cation. 1t numbered about 800 wagons
on a forced march of 53 miles, 35 of
which was performed in one day, subject
to constant attack in front, rear and flank,
according to its position, by the enemy
in full force. In the panics of teamstcrs,
and the mschances of river passage of
more than 500 yards wide, with slender
preparations for fording and ferry, | lost
not many more than so wagons. Our
troops are in good spirits, and occupy
both sides Of the river.

From WasIiiugiOu-~-Grcut Ex-
citcrucut--Ehc city iu Danger.

WAsmNGroN, May 25.-McClellan re il.
ports progress in front of Richmond.
a dispatch received tonight states that
Gen. Banks made good his retreat across
the Potomac at Williamsport. General
Saxton commands at llarpcr's Ferry.
The city is intensely excited by inteli-
gence from the valley of tho Shcnan-
doah. Gen. Banks fought the enemy for
six hours.
The rebels are understood to be advan-
cling from Winchester to IIarpcr's Ferry
Our troops are being reinforced. Rumor
says Jackson is advancing to support
Ewell and johnson. 1t is also stated
that there is still another force behind
him.
Prompt measures have been taken TO
meet the cXigincy.
New YonK, May 26.-Tho Times spe.
cial from Washington, May %. says we
have passed very exciting day in Wash
ington. Tho intelligence received last
evening TO the effect that Gen. Banks had
fallen back from Strasburg to WinchcS-
chester, was understood to indicate rather
a precautionary measure on his part, than
the result of any immediate movement
of the enemy.
The tidings of this morning announc-
ing the occupation of Winchester by
jackson, and the withdrawal of Banks
after an engagement of six hours, in the
direction of Martinsburg and Harper,
Ferry, placed matters in new light, and
aroused serious apprehcnsons not only
for the safety of his little command, but
for the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, the
city of Baltimore, ard even the capitol
Later in the day the reports of the ri
oting in Baltimore and the rout.of the en-
tire force Of Banks by the quick marcl
and overwhelming numbers of jackson
greatly intestiied the excitement Tn
secession sympathizors, too greatly elate,
to conceal their joy, openly express thei
belief that the host Of jeff. Davis viii
ovorrun Maryland and the District with
in twenty-four hours.
The reports of riotng in Baltimor
doubtless greatly exaggerated have gvel
the cnemy's of the Union here increasec
boldness this evening. AS no time sine
the disaster Of Bull Run have they been Sc
Wanting and defiant among loyalsts.
The feeling is one Of regret that b,
some body's blunder our course in tn
valley fthe Shenandoh should have bee
so seriously set back and the enemy Civ
en- such a decided advantage. Grea
sympathy is expressed for the Union me-
of Winchester and vicinity.
