toon bridge across the Rappah.nnock

some opposition made by 'hc enemy.

In the fight on Morris Island the rebels
sustained ve'y heavy loss in killed aud
woundcd.at first reported nj 500, and then
reduced to $50.
A,uong the killed is Gen. G. Smart, Col
Langdon Clcws. and Col Jno. Bees The
body Of Col. Bees is in tho encmy's

The Times has the following
HKADouAkTKRs AhMy OF THE
Po1oMAc. July 20.
This army to- day occupies pract cally
the same lines that 1t did month ago.
The recent active movements will be nee
crsarily followed by period OF conpar-
alive ,naction, during v hich it will be re.
covering and rccupcrnilng For the n xt
mouth, the cavalry will do most Of the
fighting.
As have before stated, Longstree,'s
and H,l's commands. after passing
through Thornton's (not Chesters) Gap.
have encamped between Culpeppcr and
Gordonsvillc.
Ewcli's command covered their rear
and flank by guard ng the Blue Ridge
passes. The bulk OF this corps is now
moving down the val cy, and detach-
ments threaten our lines.
Yesterday morning at two o'clock our
pickeis were driven in near Ahnisvilc,
and Indicators to-day are that ouI out
posts are liable to be forced in at any
moment by superior dctachmenls Of the
rebels.
There is but little sickness, and the
men are more literally supplied with ra
,ions than ever before. THIS taken with
the recent Union succcsses, creates gen
eral good feeli' e IN the army.
A large rumter Of officers weIe re

Gen. Gilmore has I cen promised oil the
reinforcements he needs. Charleston
must fall, and that too sp, edily, il sner-
gy, ceicri'y. and 10 inch guns will &C
compi.h the result.
The statement that GiImor-s losses in
the recent engagement were one tn rd OF
his total force, is pi ionounced incorrect.
His losses were not near 30 severe No st
first rcpr. sented. In the last sction he
did not lose over 700 men, and his total
losses since he began the campaign will
not amount TO over 900.

Proclamation by Gov. Curtin.


To THE PEOPLE OF PmLADELPHIA:
For nearly week past it has been publicly
known that the rebels in force were about to en-
ter Pennsylvania. On the 18th instant an ur-
gent call was made on the people to raise in this
department an army corps for the defence ofthe
State Yesterday under the proclamation of the
President the militia were called out To-day
new and pressing invitation has been given to
furnish men to repel the invasion. Philadel-
phia has not responded. Meanwhile the enemy
is six miles this side of Chambersburg and adj :
vancing rapidly. Our capital is threatened and
we may be disgraced by its fall, while the men
who should be driving the outlaws from our soil
are quibbling about the possible term of service
for six months. 1t was never intended to keep
them beyond the continuance The urgency.-
You all know this by what happened when the
militia were called out last autumn. You then
trusted your government and were not deceived.
Try it again now.
Twill accept men without reference to the six
month term. II you do not wish to bear the g-
nominy of shirking from the defence of your
State, come forward at once; close your places
OF business and apply your hearts to the work
Come in such organizations as you can form.
lSigned:] A. @. CURTIN, Governor.

nison was elected permanent President. The
nomination of Brough was received with tre-
mendoss enthusiasm, and a motion was made
to make it unanimous; Griswold, of Cuyahoga
had the modesty to declare the motion out of
order, and on being corrected by the President
he voted no. He and Major Carey east the on
ly negative vote. The rest of the Cuyahoga
delegation are indignant at their course.
After Brough was nominated, Tod made a
strong speech, saying no man should go further
than he in supporting John Brough for Gov
ernOr.
Colonel Charles Anderson was nominated

Peace.

Do the men who want peace, @at any price and
son any terms,' know what that means? II
means divided Union,-it means chronic war
it means standing armies for all time,-it
means foreign intervention,-it means ever in
creasing divisions,--t means hundred petty
miserable weak and quarreling states.-it means
the destruction of all that gives value to proper
ty or dignity to the American name,-it means
yearly conscription forever-it means misery
and poverty in every household,- lit means So
cial and political ruin. Let him, who would
know what peace sat any price" or what is the

public.

Tho mnsIr nff.

The party now calling itself Democratic, has
at last thrown off all disguise, and now shows
the hideous front of treason 1t has long been
well understood that its leaders desired to place
it in full sympathy with rebellion, and at last
they have succeeded. In Ohio they have nom
mated c. L. Vallandigham for Governor. This
tells the whole tale. This man boasts that as a
member of Congress he voted Hnot man or a
dollar for the war" OF all other men at the
North he stands highest with Davis and his
crow. To elect him Governor is to do precisely
what will suit every rebel. If he is elected,
they will consider their cause gained, their in
dependence sure, and the Union finally divided.
The man who votes for him will vote for this
end The mon who nominated him meant pre-
cisely this. The question will now be tested
whether the people of Ohio are traitors or loyal
men-whether they are Unionists or disunion-
ists. All the clap-trap of these traitors who say
that they are supporting Vallandgham 10 Sc
cure peace and Union, is too naked to deceive
anybody. 1t might as well be spared. Demo-
cracy is now only another name for rebellion.
Every rebel in arms against the Government
calls himself Democrat Every man who
sympathises with rebellion, pretends TO be a
Democrat. Every man who wants peace at any
price is Democrat Every man who arrays
himself against the Government is Democrat
The rebellion is n Democratic rebellion in It's
origin, and in every step of its progress. If it
shall be successful it will be owing wholly to
Democratic aid, rendered by Democratic trait
,ors at the North Let no man think that by
these words we mean 10 reproach those true and
honest Democrats, who have refused TO be led
into treason. No. all honor TO their independ-
cnce and integrity. Let those who remain con-
slider well the road their leaders are now taking
We believe still that the great mass of Demo-
Gratis at the North mean to be loyal, and do not
mean TO destroy the Union. But if they per-
init themselves to follow where their leaders are
now pointing the way. it will only remain to
sever the Union forever; or to nominate JEFF.
Davis for next President adopt his Constitution,
and creep into the Southern Confederacy if
they will let us.

Shall the Union Staudl

This question can only be answered with abb
solute certainty by Him who wields the desti-
nies of nations. Other governments have been
destroyed and ours may be. But if it perishes
we shall know how and why. 1t will perish, il
at all, by the hands of Democrats, or rather
of traitors clothed in that honored name.
We may be sure also that it will perish if the
utmost efforts of rebels at the South and their
Democratic friends at the North can accomplish
it. If the Union is saved it will be against the
utmost efforts of both. If it is destroyed, the
guilt of that accursed crime will be branded on
the face of every man whose votes sustain reb-
els or their sympathisers We use plain words
but these are no times for soft phrases,
