THE WAR NEWS.

General GRANT is with General MEADE
before Petersburg to-day. We expect to hear
Of an important movement Immediately. The
first thing in order will be an advance of our
left wing, under HANCOCK, towards the Dan
vile or Southside railroad, which will prob
ably be destroyed before any movement is
made upon the enemy's works about Rich
mond. General LEE has been exhibiting
signs Of anxiety relative to securing line of
retreat lately, In view of disaster to his
army in the approaching conflict and we are
informed by the Rebel newspapers that he is
fortifying the town of Danville as a place of
refuge in case of an overwhelming defeat at
or near Richmond.
GRANTS policy viii be to press the enemy
gradually, and secure all lines Of supply lead
1ung South, and by this means force the Rebels
g 70 offensive attacks at all times. This sys-
5s although slowly progressive, will be the
~ and best.
e are gratifed to learn that an arrange
nent of the cartel is now pending, which will
probably be adopted, for the resumption o
The exchange Of prisoners. 1t seems hare
that thirty-five thousand of our soldier,
should be allowed to die of starvation and
exposure because the Rebels refuse to ex-
change as soldiers about five hundred colored
men who are encamped with them at Ander-
sonville, Georgia.
General MARMADUKE is preparing to enter
Missouri with his Rebel forces. He will fare
badly. General A. J. SMITH is moving to
attack him in Northern Arkansas and Generals
MOWER and GRERsoN have gone up the
White river, to take the Rebels in
the rear. General PRICE is the directing
General, and he is destined to his usual an
nual overthrow and defeat. General NAPo-
LEON BoNAPARTE FORREST has turned up
suddenly in Jackson, Mississippi, with 10000
men. BE contemplates an attack upon Mem
phis, and grand raid through West Tennes
see, the destruction of Gen. SHERNAN's com
munications, &c. Gen. BBAYMAN's column
advancing from Vicksburg, may interfere wit
this design, and perhaps defeat the splend
schemes of the "last great raider of the Soutl

TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1854.


Friends Of the Government, Of Freedom and
Of Humanity, be Of good cheorl The end
draweth nighl The campaign has opened
and our armies are grasping victory. Our
enemies have threatened US with their daunt-
ing banners of Gree election or free
fight" The soldiers of the Union;talsela free
fight and win afterwards hold free election.
The result of that election is already manifest.
It will result in the defeat of Rebel sympa-
thizers and foreign emissaries, and the triumph
of ABRAHAM LINCoN, the sworn defender
of the Constitution, and the unwavering and
unAinchlne executor Of the laws.

SHALL THE REBELLION BE PIN.
ISHED?

One of the speakers at the Democratic
meeting the other night said that while
President LINCOLN is in favor of the Union
conditionally, General MCCLELLAN is in
favor of it Internationally" The speaker,
no doubt, thought he had made most telling
point in that remark. But what does il all
amount to, when calmly considered and ex-
planned? He was possessed, obviously, with
the idea that love of the Union, and a desire
to restore OF maintain it at all hazards, is the
paramount sentiment of the people of the
loyal States; and hence the inference was
natural, that the candidate OF the party who
allegiance on the easiest possible terms must,
therefore, secure the largest popularity.
Well, now, is that theory Of the situation
correct? Is it the theory which the people
win be most likely TO endorse? Are we TO
believe that after three years Of war, and the
fearful sacrifices it has cost thus far to con-
uuer the Rebellion, peace shall be made on no
other terms than the restitution of the Rebels
to all those rights, and privileges, and bless
inos which they have forfeited by their revolt?
Ii that be the case, then rebellion will d.aw
after It no disabilities or punishment, and
treason to the Government will be diyested Of
all its usual and necessary terrors. If it shall
be established, by the precedent we are to
make now, that armed insuTrection against
the National Government, however destruc-
tive and long continued, is not indeed mon
strous crime, but an amusement, in which
any Of the States, or their citizens, may engage
ana prosecute with absolute impunity, then
we respectfully submit that the nation, in end
ing one such civil strife on the basis ofa COM
pete and perfect amnesty, never can be
secured against a recurrence Of the evil.
Rebellion must not only be subdued, 10
must be punished. The traitors must be 80
dealt with as TO make the consequences Of
their crime TO them exemplary, and fitted to
deter others from the repetition Of the same
egregrous folly and iniquity. Andin order to
that salutary end, every great rebellion, like
the present, ought to be conquered absolutely
and not merely conciliated and COMPROMISED
with. The National Government owes Il to
its own dignity TO put the Rebels down bv
force, if they win not yield voluntarily and
under mercy. Treating for peace with traitors
In arms would not only be disgraceful to the
republic, but would deprive the Government
Of the power 10 inlict even the Constitutional
penalties Of treason.

what IL Gold Lnce2

Gold lace is not gold lace. 1t does not deserve
this title, for the gold is applied as surface to
silver. 1t is not even silver lace, for the silver
is applied to foundation of silk. The siIl1en
threads for making this material are wound
round with gold wire so thicky as to conceal the
silk and the making of this gold wire is one of
the most singular mechanical operations imagin-
able. In the first place, the refiner prepares a
solid rod of silver about an inch in thickness; he
heats this rod, applies on the surface a sheet of
gold leaf, Furnishes this down, applies another
coaling Furnishes this down, and so on until
the gold is about one -hundredth part the thick
ness of the silver. Then the rod Is subjected to a
train Of processes which brings it down TO the
state of fine wire; 1t is passed through holes in
q steel plate lcsseuing step by step in diameier
The gold never deserts the silver, but adheres
closely to it, and shares all its mutilations; It is
-hundredth part the thickness of the silver at
the BEGINNING, and il maintains the same ratio to
the end.
As to the thinnCss to which the gold-coated rod
of silver can be brought the limit depends on the
delicJ Cy of human skill but the most remarkable
example ever known was brought forward by Dr.
WollastOn. This was an example of solid gold
Yiic, without any silver. lie procured a small
rod of silver, bored hole through it from end TO
end, and inserted in this hole the smallest gold
wire he could produce he submitted this silver
to the usual wire drawing process, until he had
brought IL 10 the finest attainable shape-bcng,
in fact, silver wire as fine as a hair, with gold
wire in its centre. To isolate this gold W re ne
subjected it to warm nitrous acid, by which the
silver was dissolved leaving a gold wire one
thirty thOusandth of an inch in thickness-perhaps
the thnnest round wire that the hand of man has
yet produced. But the wire, though beyond all
comparison finer than any employed in manufac-
lures, does not approach in thinness the film of
gold on the surface Of silver in gold lace. It has
been calculated that the gold on the very finest
silver wire for gold lace is not than one third
of -millionth of an inch in thickness; that is
net above onetenth the thickness of ordinary

The Extra Session.

The militia bill passed at the extra ses-
sion of the Legislature is fair sample of
abolition legislation in this State. 1t gives
the Governor power to appoint all officers
above captain, to draft the Is Regiments
from any portion of the Commonwealth, q,
to seize horses, supplies and railroads, ,and
leaves the men liable to nation al draft, and
allows them TO be taken out Of the State
at the pleasure Of the authorities. 1t also
fHes volunteers 25 dollars for not furnish
ing themselves with uniforms, and imposes
other heavy penalties The other Legis-
lasion is of like character. The domi-
naut party had things their own way, and

delphia Inquirer cries out against it.

OF the t,ons,iution which he has sworn to
