The Late Disasters.

The details fully confirm the Federal
disaster in Western Louisiana, end show
that our defeat was complete. Our loss is
estimated at 10000. The fighting was
terrific, but our brave soldiers labored IN
der disadvantage of position and inferior
ity of numbers. All the officers engaged
in the unfortunate affair, it is said, cen
sure Gen. Banks for the failure.
Another Federal defeat has been met
with at Plymouth, North Carolina. On
the 18th ult., a rebel ram came down the
Roanoke river, attacked the Federal feet,
and sunk three gunhOats. The next day,
the rebel land forces attacked and carried
the place, capturing 1900 prisoners and
80 pieces of cannon. The ram rendered
efficient service to the assailants. The
rebels lost 300 in killed and wounded
The FEDERAL loss was comparatively small
Gen. Butler is eensured for this defeat
These disasters are another lesson
against the policy of scattering our forces
If Mcclellan had been sustained and
could have had his way, our brave soldiers
would never have been placed in positions
to be butchered as has been too often the
case under some Of Lincoln's political Gen
erals.

Our Platform.

We invite attention to the constitution

but embraces enough to meet the present

The constitution as our fathers made it,
is the only text for true friends Of the

here to it as the sheet 8rchor of our safety,
nor surrender its Curious teachings for
any of the isms or herisss of the day.
Upon this platform, the Democracy can
go into the contest with assurance that
their efforts will not be fruitless. Let US
adhere to it and uphold its doctrines faith.

the freedom and acknowledgements of the

every able bodied white man and the de-
vastation of the whole country. =
We do not expect the miscegeDators or
shOtdites to unite with US, or append their
names to our platform, but men who are
tired of this corrupt Administration and
IN favor OF the political and social superb,

Conservative men those, who oppose the
negro policies of the Administration and its
supporters, and detest the means by which
the Administration seeks TO perpetuate its

joining in the great movement to restore

Every means is reported to prevent civ

"A squad Of twenty-five rebel deserters

been receiving reinforcements. One as
serts that much of the heavy artillery has
been sent to Richmond, and the belief is
current among the soldiers that an early
retrogsde movement upon that city is to
be made. One of L0ngstreets divisions
bad been sent back to Richmond of Lees

The Tribune's Washington special says:
''No collision with the enemy in Virginia
is likely to occur for many DAYS."
The Hersld's Martins5urg (Vs.) dis.

"A force of rebels is reported concen-
trating at fort Royal; how large is not
known. There are some indications that
it will commence offensive Operations on

anty that the Democratic members have
