1t is in vain that our Democratic wire-w0rkers
of the old Tanmsny school insist on regularity.
organization, discipline and unity in the party
ranks, insisting that the one absorbing duty of
the hour is to beat Lincoln and got possession
Of the Offices. A very large proportion Of the
rank and file, with such of tho drill-sergeants
as follow the flag of the Wood brothers, are
afraid that this programme does not afford SUI
fciently direct and certain aid and comfort
to tho Rebels SO they utterly refuse 70 be

form and ticket at Chicago; and, though they
will probably be defeated on the direct issue,
they are very likely to force compromise that
will secure them q virtual triumph.
One Of their most promising devices is the
systematic counting of that portion of our peo-
pie who, because they labor for wages, are es-
pecially and rather inyidiously distinguished as
" Working Men," with intent to inveiglS the
whole into their tolls James Brannigan, who
brutally murdered Henry Miley on the Sd inst.
for continuing to labor as q blacksmith for
wages which the murderer and others saw fit to

course, many worthy and well-meaning persons
whom they delude into their camps by specious
promises Of increased wages and reduction Of
the hours Of labor to eight per day; but it is
nevertheless true that most Of the rowdies and
ruAians who never do an honest days work
when they can possibly help it, are among the
noisiest declaimers for working mems rights,

MILITARY NEWS.

There are dispatches az thero nave Dceh more
times within three weeks past than we can
remember, announcing new INVASION OF Penn
sylysnia. Gen. Couch has issued an order, and
Gov. Curtin proclamation. adapted to the
emergency. Rebel forces. stated all the way
from 5000 to 1000, are over the Potomac and
have occupied Hsgerstown, and there is hurry
ing to and fro along tho border. We wait for
further reports.
From Georgia we have news OF disaster to
portion of Gen. Sherman's cavalry which had
been sent to destroy the Macon Railroad. They
succeeded in their mission. and subsequently
seized large wagon train. but were Intercepted
by strong Rebel force, surrounded attacked,
and in great part captured. 1t is said that not
less than 1000 of our men were taken prison.
crs; q number which, considering that tho force
was cavalry. and originally not over :, 200, is in
credible. Western cavalry have heretofore shown
themselves willing TO fight, and we do not be.
lieve they have taken TO surrcndering in mass.
Cavalry may be surrounded, but can never, say
the military books, be excused for not attempt
ing to cut their way out. There are brilliant
instances Of such efforts and successes in this war.
In this case, 1t is intimated We trust unjustly,
that the men were drunk with liquor captured
from the Rebels. Such state OF things would
reflect infinite disgrace on thcir officers.
There arc reports that Hood is getting rapidly
reinforced by troops from beyond the Missis-
sppi-which is probable enough. Since
Banks's utter defeat, there has been nothing to
detain Rebel army in Louisiana, except the
hope Of capturing New Orleans-and they are
not crazy enough to try that. Difficulties Of
transportation, destruction of railroads, and q
general laying waste Of the intervening coun-
try, have made marching difficult, but it
is still possible that large portion Of
Kirby Smiths force may have been ferried over
the Mississippi and be on route for Atlanta
At all events, we have no notion that any men
have been spared to him from the East. 1t is
now as always Lees policy to risk everything else
for the chance of holding Virginia, and he will
not send regiment to Atlanta to save it from
certain capture. All his troops are wanted in
Virginia.

The World, some days since, asserted that
Democratic correspondence, sent through the
mails, is tempered with, and that this criminal
act is connvcd at by the Post-Office Depart
ment. Postmaster.Gcneral Blair, in q letter to
Mr.. Wakeman, which The World publishes,
denies the allegation not only as an impeach-
ment of its moral but Of its business integrity,
expresses desire to have the evidence of the
charge, aud avows his wish to punish such an
act if it can be proved 70 be true. The Hor'd,
no doubt, is wrong. and the Unconstitutional
right. 1t is not to be believed for moment
that the mails are interlcrcd with from any ma
licious design, though it is quite possible that

A correspondent assures US that We we're in
error, in an article published a few days since
upon Slavery in Porto Rico, in asserting that
"the child Of slave mother and white father
ia free from its birth" The child of q slave
mother, he declares, is subject there to the gen,
eral law Of Slavery, that the child shall inherit
the condition Of the mother, not the father.
Our information on this point was derived from
gentleman who has, for years, been resident
of Porto Rico, but possibly he may be mistaken.
