Jacksons division commenced this same march, but
ON arriving ak miles this side Of GOrdonsvile for
some reason the whole command changed their
hne of march toward Richmond again. He says
when be left Richmond the sick and wounded were
being removed 10 Dsnville and Lynchburg. His
brigade, Gen. Jones, composed of The 2lst, A2d,
aud Ash Virginia Regiments and the first battalion
WAS ordered TO march Pope's division on Friday,
with forty rounds Of fixed ammunition and two days
cooked rations.
The whole division forded the Rapidsn at two
clock on Friday. The artillery was also forded
ucro.s. The water was about two feet deep. He
thinks his regiment, the Dist Virgins, has gone
buck to Gordonsve, and hat their lrst intention OF
moving up through tho Valley Of the Shenandoah
was frustrated by the Yankee forces.
a. Colby, of the Sd Wisconsin, was wounded At
seven oclock ON Saturday aud laid on the battlefield
ill Monday evening. TIE Rebels remained on th.
field till two O'Clock on Sunday evening when they
marched off precipi,afely toward Gordonsvie. He
says privaes were free from ineut, but commits
stoned officers were treated very roughly. Captain
o Bren of the Sd Wisconsin, lay wounded and
beslde him, and WAS treated with great brutality.
lhoagh nearly dead, the Rebels cut cut bic pockets
stole his watch and carried of his money. The
Captain escaped in the night and is now at Culpep-

AGInnce ar the Enture.

If the leaders of the Democracy are trne
to their antecedents, their instincts, and to
their associations during the present war,
they will be likely, as soon as they can ex-
ercise any power, TO use it in favor of their
friends, the high priests of the Coufedera-
cy. For, in fact, they can do nothing else
except to support vigorous prosecution of
the war, which would make them Republic
cans at once, We do not believe it possible
that the spirit which has actua.ed con-
temptible minority in the present Congress,
to oppose every measure of the Admiuistra-
tion, even those indispensable to the prose-
cutiou Of the war, has so far poisoned the
minds of the masses as to afford these men
any considerable encouragement 10 the
course which they unquestionably intend
to pursue. We predict that by the time
the next Congress meets these leaders will
find themselves iu a curious dilemma. Be-
tween their self-delusion to the spirit OF
the people, and their persistent deception
of the people as to their own designs, they
will probably find the ground entirely caved
in under them.
We have no doubt that there are, among
the Democrats recently elected to the
XNXVIIIth Congress, many honest and
patriotic men. These will have ample op-
pOrtuuity before they enter on duties to
appreciate the un9uestiOnAble truth that
in everything that has been done by the
present Administration, Mr.. Lincoln and
his Cabinet have seized on the true phi
Iosophy of the rebellion: ::hnd have truly in
tepreted and honestly reflected the senti-
ments of the American public in regard to
it. They will discover that the proclama-
tion of emancipation was expedient aud
wisej that it was no chimeFa, no result of
n temporary yielding to "Abolition" in-
fiuences, but the logical, inevitable "next
thing" in the march of human events.
They will discover that the call for six
hundred thousand meu was not simple
expedient for increasing the taxes, but a
practical response to the eagerness of tue
people.
"The people will save the country IL the
Government will only do its part iudifer-
emily we'll" The uufalteriug trust express
ed in these words of Mr.. Lincoln has new
er deserted him. Nor need il now. 1t is
almost always the fate of new Administra-
tion to have its second Congress in oppose
tion. Popular reaction, disappointed pOli-
ticians, aud the two high expectations RASH
ly formed, all operate with more or less
force. But if the principle of the new Gov
ernment is sound, and if its conduct has
been honest, it is certain to be supported in
the long run. A change in popular feel
ing by no means argues n change in the di-
rection of national development or a halt
in the progress of events We do not yet
ent ,rtIin any fears that the Democracy
have secured the next house; but we feel
sure that even if they have, the war will go
on, if, indeed, it be not finished by that
time, aud carry them along with it in spite
of themselves.

velopes equally, with the unstamped arti.
Gle, regular portion of their stock in trade.
1t is deemed expedient, however, as a pre-
caution against fraud, that no one be per-
mitted to enter into such trade without
having first obtained from the Postmaster
General a regular license for that purpose,
aud all private parties desiring to have
their own envelopes stamped, must be sat
isfactory shown 10 be of good standing, and
be required TO have their names printed on
the envelopes. They will then, on pay
ment of the postage, obtain n permit 10
have the wsrk done by the Government
contractor for the stamped envelopes al
New York.
The Postmaster Geueaal considers the use
of the stamped envelopes more advAnta-
geOus to the Department than that of
seperate stamps, as the addres of the for
mer prevents them from being used a Sec
ond time, while the latter may be so used
iftbe Postmaster neglects the duty of can
ceiling them. To the public, also, they
afford advantages in addition TO those
arising from cheapness. because they are
more convenient, saving the trouble and
delay of attaching separate stamps, which
are liable to be removed, causing letters to
be detained for postage. The objection to
stamped envelopes that postage is lest in
case of misdirection may be remedied by
allowing Postmasters under certain rules
prescribed by the Postmaster General TO
redeem damaged envelopes.
