The WAR IN TENNEssEE.-A letter
from Winchester, Tenn, after describing
the progress of Rosecrans army up to the
18th inst, says ''Crittenden's Corps
moved eastward to feel the strength of the
enemy, and with the intention of crossing
the mountains to the north and east of
Chattanooga, crossing the Tennessee river
at ford some thirty miles above Chatta-
nooga. This crossing safely effected,
Crittenden will swing into the rear of
Chattanooga, and, if possible, take that
place. The intention is to strike that
point Extensively at the same time that
Burnside attacks Buckner at Knoxville.
This will at once prevent Buckner from
receiving any reinforcements, and also, if
not captured, greatly endanger his retreat,
for it will be impossible to retreat towards
Bragg. Meanwhile if Crittenden sue
ceeds we'll in his efforts upon Chattanooga
and will not need achievements, Thomas
and McCook will move rapidly upon
Rome, Ga. Twenty days from this time,
if mistake not the signs, will see Geor-
gia redeemed and regenerated.
A special dispatch to the Louisville
Journal, dated Stevenson, Ala, Aug. %,
states that from their look-outs on the
mountains, our soldiers could plainly see
the rolling stock of the railroad going off
southwark from Chattanooga Large fires
were plainly seen on the night of the 21st,
in the rear of the town. All the fords are
strongly guarded by infantry and artil-
lery rife pits cover the hillside In the
vicinity of the fords, and the work of
crossing our army seemed likely to be a
bloody one. The enemy displayed a dis
position to resist the passage of the river,
but deserters say that he is removing the
greater portion of his troops, leaving small
guards to annoy Gen. Rosecrans' army.

The PennsyIvania Quakers Oh the
War Path.

At one of the regular meetings OF the
Society OF Friends, in Pennsylvania, re-
Gently, committee was proposed to be
raised to inquire into and attend to the
cases of Young men, sons of members who
it was supposed had, in clear violation of
all the standard rules of the Society, en-
listed for military service in this dreadful
war.
It was notorious that large number of
this class had actually shouldered the mus
ket, and marched with their regiments /;
and it was strongly suspected that many
of these boys had actually received the
warmest blessings of their demure but
none tho less heroic mothers, and the IN
spring encouragement of gentle sisters, on
their departure.
But as the case had been brought up
before the meeting by some Of the strict
est Friends, it became necessary to give
it the strictest consideration, and the mem
bers of the committee were duly proposed.
The first rose with great dignity, and with
that inimitabe serenity which Away char
acterizes the proceedings of the Quakers,
requested to be excused, on the ground
that he could not conscientiously serve in
thai capacity, since, very much to his
pain and sorrow, among the young mem
bers who had enlisted for the war he had
a son.
Another member desired to be excused
on the ground that two of his sons haC
not only joined the army, but were already
| in the field.
Finally, the third member rose, anC
stood some moments without speaking
| He was venerable man he looked like
the patriarch of the solemn assembly. Hi:
hair was white, but his cheek looked like
'Erose in the snow."-" Friends, we, IL
our weakness, cannot foresee the purposes
of the Great Father of all things, MOI
should we attempt to scruhnize His al
mighty designs. 1t becomes my duty to
inform you all that my youngest son, two
of my grandsons and several of my neph
ews, have also taken up arms in de,
fence of our beloved country; | am
very much afraid that | could not serve
on the committee with any good to oul
cause"
A reverent silence brooded over the as
sembly and for a protracted interval the
silence remained unbroken. At last, tn,
"mover of the notion rose and proposed
that ''the whole matter should be tempo
rarily postponed"

WESTERN Democracy, Copperhead
Democracy is at discount IN the North
West. The discount is growing heavier
and heavier every day. Among other
movements of the war democracy against
the spurious article, we notice a recent
important one in Wisconsin. The loyal
democrats of that State, unable 10 sub
scribe to the platform of the copperhead
convention, held on the 9th inst, or to
support its nominees, have published
call for A convention to be held at James
Vile on the l7th Of September. Refer
ring to the copperhead convention, it says :;
awe have no comment to make Hpon the
ticket, but it is utterly impossible for war
democrats to acquiesce in the permclous
doctrines, the vindictive, Jealous and Ian
guild patriotism displayed by this plat
form, or to approve of its silence on the
duties and necessities of the hour. We
cannot sanction its heresies, nor are we
willing that the glorious party of Jetfer-
son and jackson, that party to whose
guidance the destinies Of our country have
so often been safely confded, should pass
into the control of this arrogant and dis
loyal faction,
"Under these circumstances the duties
and true position of the loyal democracy
seem plain and clear, and that is to take
action at once, to organize a real and
sound democratic party, which shall be
unhinching in principle, loyal in practice
true and free in speech, and devoted te
the government, howsoever and by whom
soever administered against all foes, open
or concealed, at home or abroad, IN the
North or in the South
The call is signed by over fifty of tn,
strongest democrats of the State, such a
M. H. Carpenter, one of Wisconsin,
ablest lawyers; j. E. Arnold, forme1
democratic candidate for congress, Judge
Macarthur, former democratic Lieutenant
governor of the State, COL Robinson, o
the Green Bay Advocate, and many 9TH
ers as prominent in the State.
What kind of a spirit pervades the 10y
al democrats of Wisconsin, and the essen
tial difference between it and the venom
Gus spirit of copperheadlsm there anC
throughout the North, may be gathered
| from the following words Of NJ. H. Car
| penter, one of the signers of the cal
above mentioned.

CoPrERHEAp TERMS OF PEACE. Tn,

CoPrERHEAp Terms OF PEACE. The
pseudo-democracy, headed by yallandig-
tHm 4 Co., have proclaimed that the re-
belize. ~ never be subdued and the
Union restored, by force of arms. They
hay, 'Nmonstrated, over and over again,
that nj is a gigantic failure
They a-agly put forth their ut
most efforts - embarrass the prosecution
of the war, and help their prophecy of the
non-success of coercive measures to
its fulfllment. They have acclaimed
against the horrors of war and the bur-
dens OF taxation it entails, especially up
on the laboring classes of the North.
Now they are being forced to an aban-
donment of that position. Spite of their
best efforts to the contrary, the war
against treason is going on with de-
cisive success. The bogus "Confederacy"
is crumbling to pieces.
This beng the case, they are Fastening
to enhghten the loyal people upon the sub
ject of what are the proper terms of
"peace " to propose to the bafled con-
sprators against the Union. In an arti-
Gle upon this subject, the New York
World, metropolitan organ OF the copper
heads, cautiously breaches the following,
among other things:
:" The third question, provision tor
the Southern war debt, is one on which
we have not bestowed sufficient reflection
to have very definite opinion, although
it is obviously one of the things to be con
sidered in the dissolution of the confede-
racy. 1t is matter which concerns the
South more than it concerns us. If dis
tributed and assumed by the several rebel
States, it will make the pressure of State
taxation so heavy as to seriously impair
their ability to pay their portion of Fede-
raj taxes. Whether the exchange of con
federate scrip at Its market value
for United States bonds, would not
by its tendency to produce goot
feeling, save an equivalent expens
in maintaining troops in the south, is !
question on which it is premature to haz
ard any opinion"
Hazarding an opinion may be prema
ture hazarding one that the North shall
pay the rebel debt, which is clearl,
enough the opinion of the World, we hav
no doubt is premature. The World ha
now evidently forgotten all about the bur
dens of taxation upon the loyal people,
1t is proposing that they shall also b
taxed to pay the millions of debt in

stance), who knew what use was to b
