continue to be instituted, let them be drawn accord
ing to the facts, and not distorted into the mere
caricatures OF personal prejudice. Already this
carping criticism, though directed against Gen.
Mcclellan, has rccoilcd most unjustly on the head
Of Gen. Meade, who, by necessary implication, is
censured for not having destroyed" the army of
Gen. Lee on the day after he had repulsed it so
dsastrously Sill more censursble must it appear
in the eyes Of these military puudits that the new
General should have allowed week or more to
elapse before again bringing on battle with the
crippled forces of the insurgents. We all know
what ordinations such fact would have elected
from certain quarters under Gen McClellan's ad-
ministration, and, if they are now comparatively
hushed, we would fain hope that it is because the
people are learning to be just in their mill
tary criticisms. Men may sometimes learn from
the repetition of certain experiences and observa
tons what they would have been earlier to discover
if their candor had always been equal to their OPP
portunties for forming right judgments.

By the President OF the United States of america.
A PROCLAMATION

1t has pleased Almighty God to hearken to the
suppcations and prayers of afflicted people,
and to vouchsafe to the Army and the Navy Of the
United States victories on land and on the sea so
signal and SO effective as to furnish reasonable
ground for augmented confidence that the Union
of these States will be maintained, their Constitu-
ton preserved and their peace and prosperity per-
manently restored. But these victories have been
accorded not without sacrifices of life, limb health,
and liberty, incurred by brave loyal, and patriotic
citizens. Domestic afhiction in every part of the
country follows in the train of these fearful be-
reavements 1t is meet and right to recognise and
confess the presence Of the Almighty Father and
the power Of His Hand equally in these triumphs
and in these sorrows.
Now therefore, be it known that do set apart
Thursday, the 9th day of August next, to be OBJ
served as day for National Thanksgiving, Praise,
and Prayer, and invite the People Of the United
States to assemble on that occasion in their GUS
tomary places of worship, and, in the forms ap-
proved by their own consciences, render the hon.
age due to the Divine Majesty for the wonderful
things he has done in the Nations behalf, and in
woke the influence of His Holy Spirit to subdue
the anger which has produced and 10 long sus-
tanned needless and cruel rebellion, to change the
hearts of the insurgents, to guide the counsels Of
the Government with wisdom adequate to 90 great
a national emergency, and to visit with tender care
and consolation throughout the length and breadth
of our land all those who, through the vicissitudes
of marches, voyages, battles and sieges have been
brought to suffer in mind, body, or estate, and
finally to lead the whole nation, through the paths
Of repentance and submission to the Divine Will,
back to the perfect enjoyment of union and fraer-
nal peace
In witness whereof, have hereunto set my hand and
caused the seal of the United States to be affixed

ATTACK ON BLACK TROOPS NEAR vIcKsBURG

Rear Admiral PORTER, in a report made to the Sec
rotary Of the Navy bearing date July 3 1863 says that
he received communication the Doth Of June from
Gen. Dennis commanding the post at Youngs Point in
forming him that the black troops at Goodrchs Landing
had been attacked and that the rebels were getting the
upper hand of them.
Admiral Porter had already dispatched a gunboat to
that point but sent off another without delay He also
directed Gen. Eet proceed with the Marine Brigade to
the scene action and remain there until every thing was
quiet.
The headmost vessel Of the brigade John Raines) ar
rived there the rebels setting fire to the socaed
Government plantations and supposing the Raines to be
ordinary transport they opened fire her with field
pieces but much surprised to have the FIRE returned
with shrapnel, which fell in among them, killing and
woundng number The result was retreat on the part
Of the rebels and the escape Of number of negroes they
had imprisoned
The gunboat Romeo also came from up the river about
this time and, hearing the firing hurried to the scene of
action. The commander discovered the rebels set
ting FIRE to the plantations aud commenced Smelling them
This he kept up for distance of fifteen miles, chasing them
along the bank the rebels setting fire to every thing
they went along. The result almost total de-
srucon Of houses and properly along the river front in
that vicinity.
The rebels succeeded in carrying of about twelve hun
dred negroes who employed the called Govern
ment plantations.
Gen. Ellet having landed his forces proceeded with
black brigade to chase the rebels who making hasty
retreat when they found there force after them

which the rebels left in their haste to get away.
Gen. Eet pursued them as far as Tensas river where
they had crossed burnt the bridges and enrenched them
selves for battle This offered them and our
artillery opened them and put them to fight Gen
Eet not knowing the country very WELL and having only
small force with him. deemed it proper not to pursue
the rebels much farther He sent two hundred infantry
the bayou and found that the rebels were retreat
ing to Delphi leaving all their plumber splendid furniture
pianos pictures &c strewn along the road The unex-
pected reinforcement of the brigade and the gunboas
saved the whole Of the black troops.
Admiral Porter regards the result Of this engagement
as productive Of only temporary peace and thinks that

We take the following passag,
from an article in The -lrmy qad Nars
Journal.
Speaking Of the past feeling of the
/ people to the army and the errors ol
opinion formerly prevalent concern
ing the military service, the writer
says:

1.-The profession Of arms is noble, be
cause for all alike it is composed of
sacrifices, and is rewarded, before
all, by public estimation and glory.
To speak disdainfully of those who
compose the rank and file of armies
is a kind Of blasphemy. even to
speak of them with Indifference is to
misconceive the very conditions of
our nature" And more especially
is this true in our country. Under
our system the civil authority con
trolls the military. The NARROWER

army life has made them better men
and better citizens. That it has
raised their sentiment OF patriotism,
no man who has seen our armies in
the field will deny. The feeling of
the army regarding the late attempts
to discourage the conscription strik-

these attempts would ever have been
made if their originators had fore /
seen what contempt and Indignation

limited vision, the ways Of Provi

and long periods of time may often

the Ruler of the world openly to
reward fidelity to truth. To meet
this moral exigency, Faith has been
given to us as a controlling element
of our nature, and with it to temper
the austerlty of its trials, Hope
has been given also. Faith in the
final triumph OF law and liberty
and order in these dark days of the
Republic has not been wanting.

In its career of sheer and unmlti-

treason and violence and falsehood

magnificent and exhaustive install

Gen. Blnnt in the Southwest, IN

We learn that the President
has received a letter from General
Grant, in which he not only pledg-

Thomas IN his labors, but also heart
ily indorses the emancipation
proclamation and the raising of

presses the opinion that, with the
latter, great results can lie attained.
For a distance of ten or fifteen
miles on both sides Of the Missis-

run off TO the interior by the rebel
planters. Gen. Grant has sent
out two expeditions for the purpose
of liberating such slaves as can be
found, and to spread the glad tidings
among those still in bondage.
