ADMIRAL DAHLGRgs's DEFExsr op p,s 9,

ADMIRAL DAHLGREss DEFENSE OF HIS soE.
Admiral DAHLGRES has written touching
letter defending the character of his son
against the imputations attempted to be cast
upon it by the rebel authorities, with regard
to alleged brutal orders for his proposed dash
into Richmond,as a justification for their bar
barous treatment of his body. After exam
lining the Photographic copy of the document
alleged by them to have been found on tne
body of Colonel DAHLGREE, he pronounced 1t
a " bare-faced, atroeious forgery" He feel,
ingly alludes to to the attributes of lis dead
son, and describes in the most touching man
ner the last letter of that son to him, written
just before the gallant Colonel departed upon
the expedition which resulted in his death.

PENSIONS AND THE HUNDRED Day MES.-Jos
ii. BARRETT, Pension Commissioner at Wash
ihs'on, has published letter stating that
The same rights in regard to pensions are
granted to those called into the service for
one hundred days, (and to their widows or de-
pendent relatives, in case OF death) as to
those who have enlisted for the term of three
years. This law, under which all pensions
passed On service in the present war are al
lowed, is unequivocal in its language, making
no distinction between those engaging for
longer or a shorter period"
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1864-08-25

CLOTHING FOR THREE MONTHS MEE.-The
War Department has decided that the allow
anee for clothing for three months men who
have seived less than that time shall be fixed
for the full time of service. The same rule
applies 70 six and nine months men. The
100 day men will be treated in this respect
the same as the three months troops.
Wood County reporter. [volume] (Grand Rapids [i.e. Wisconsin Rapids], Wis.) 1857-1923, 1864-08-25

SOME of the opposition Journals are 50
violently in favor of peace, that they cannot
tolerate the mild and milky belligerency of
Gen. MCCLELLAN. Thus the CatskiN, az. "
Recorder, an ardent Democratic sheet saws;
We know where Mcclellan stands; he is
tor war for 'more vigorous prosecution of
the war" He is for more CONSUMPTION, for
more taxes, for doing Lincoln's work more
thoroughly than Lincoln is doing it! Let
any Democrat put the record thus deliber-
ately made by Mcclellan with his agency in
the infamous arbitrary arrest of the Mary
land Legislature, and then say if he has not
seen enough to cure him of all desire to see
such man in the Presidential chair.

Those " Commissioners " Again---What Terms
Had They to Offer!

Much has been said about the so-called reb-
el commissioners at Niagara Falls, and we
have been repeatedly assured by the Demo-
cratic press that they came to offer Peace
upon the basis of restored Union" No
such lntimations were given by them at any
time, in any manner We did have, it is
true, some ridiculously crude propositions
from 70 Colonel JEwErT, as chaotic as his
own brain, but not one word from the "Com-
mlssloners" themselves. Declarations of
terms to be proposed by them have been con-
tdently made, Notwithstanding they were in
direct contradiction of the assertions of the
rebel government and official organs. AL
though the Commissioners " admitted thew
were unauthorized, anything that throws
light. On their real views regarding the ques-
ton of Peace will be read with interest. In
this view, the following from the Grand Rap
ids Eagle, giving the views of Mr.. HoLcoMBE,
clergyman of Grand Rapids, who used to be
in college with him, is important, especially
as it is the only statement of the views of
any of the Commissioners that comes to
us with any show of authority:
"Holcombe positively asserted that the
South did not want peace, and would not lis
ten to the faintest intimation of peace, except
on terms recognizing Their absolute independence
and soueyeioatu, NTH all the territory then orioi-
q,ally claimed. He said the rebels could and
would fight twenty years longer before &C
cepting any other or less terms than these. He
averred the Southern people were not fight
inc for slavery, and cared nothing about it :;
that they would relinquish it in a moment if
so doing would advance their cause; that
what they were fighting for was independence |
and separate soUeresgnty, pure and simple, and |
this they would have, or else they must be En-
terminated.
"Our friend questioned him closely and |
repeatedly if there was not some possible |
way to bring about peace; and he was al
ways answered that there could be no peace
upon the basis Of any reconstruction OF the |
Union-that was altogether out of the ques-
ton. Whatever might be said or had been
said for political effect, the Southern States
would never again unite with the Northern
States on any terms. The rebels had an
nounced, il the beginning, that the separa-
ton was final and they meant precisely what
they said and would either die or carry this
point.
Mr.. Holcombe was at great pains to Gre
ate the distinct impression that slavery was
not the cause or object of the war, but only
the convenient pretext for getting up re-
volt that the real cause and object was in
dependence and separate nationality, and
nothing else; and that no peace, or truce, OR
was possible that did not grant
the rebels independence and a separate SOW
ereignty; and that, whatever political man.
agement could do in the North to embarrass
the Government was fostered and encouraged
BY the rebel leaders because it aided them
more or less in obtaining their ultimate OBJ
ect, separation and independence
q An ingenious Worcester mechanic

BRIDesD.-The great railroad bridge over
the Chaitahoochee river which the rebels de-
stroyed, was rebuilt by Gen. Sherman, and
trains passed over it on Friday. Cars now
run to within three miles of Atlanta.

Orleans, was fired into by battery Of six
guns, on the 10th near Gaines Landing, and
narrowly escaped destruction. She was struck
while making distance of 800 yards, about

every direction and showers of musket balls
fell Oh every side. There were about 500
persons on board and great alarm and confu-
sion existed. The Captain, JOHN MALLoY,
