How to Make Veterans of Raw
Recruits,

The question of raising more troops, and
particularly hosc to raise them, is growing in
Importance. The President alluded to it in his
Philadelphia speech. Certain Western men,
bers of Congress have urged upon the Presi-
dent to abandon volunteering or back it up
with an absolute draft without communication.
Mr.. DooLITTLE argued in the Senate in favor
offresh troops, raw troops, for the service A
paragraph from his speech is of especial inte-
rest at the present time:
l remember very well conversation had
with one of the ministers OF the great powers
of Europe here in Washington directly after
the Bull Run defeat of 1861, when he said to
me: The fault is not in you men; will tell
you where the fault is it is in your officers in
the line. your captains, your lieutenants, your
sergeants, your cOrpOrals, that have not seen
firm in the face of the enemy" But, sir, when
you have veteran organization, when you have
officers that have seen service for two or tn, ee
years, and have gone through many o bloody
battle and have faced danger and death in eve
ry 70. m, when you have sergeants and cOrpo-
rails and some of the veteran men themselves
standing in the ranks, and put new men into
the ranks by the side of them, those new men
in six weeks will fight as well as they ever will
fight. That is the real truth, and such is the
proof growing out OF the experience of this
war. Why, sir, refer to that very Thirty-sixth
regiment of WiscOnsiOn to which have alud-
cd and what does its history show? When it
led under Hancock in the charge upon the in
trenchments of the enemy it was new regl
ment. Colonel Haskall fell at the head of the
regiment, but the men did not falter; and il
was an entirely new regiment without the adj
vantage of having even an old organization.
But, when under the operations of your draft
you call upOu the men and put them into the
old regiments side by side with veterans, and
under the command of sergeants corporals
lieutenants, captains, majors and colonies who
have seen service-oficers that will not shrink
the men will never shrink. When you have
veteran officers throughout. down through the
comprehension there is q sergeant or corpo
raj that stands within reach of every man. thai
eau put his hand upon him and say, "Steady
boys, steady" there will be no shrinking or
the part of the men. ....

the emigration through that place the present

at one hundred thousand, including those going
to Dacota, Nebraska, Colorado, Nevada and
Idaho, but this is somewhat exaggerated. Ac-
cOrding to the best information TWENTY-FIVE
thousand would perhaps be nearer the truth.
The emigration for this season Is considered
st close. From fifty to seventy-fiye trains
passed over the Amaha on the 10Th but that

Visit OF the President to the Phila.

Mr.. LINCOLN arrived in Philadelphia last
Thursday to visit the Sanitary Fair, and was
received with great enthusiasm. He was ac-
companied by Mrs. LINCOLN. Tho Common
Council rendered the President the hospitali-
ties of the city, large escort was provided for
him, the houses along the line of march of
the procession were l-ofusely decorated, and
thousands of spectators filed the Fair build
ings. A collation. was provided in the supper
room of the main building, and Mr.. THOMAS
WEBSTER proposed as q sentiment ''The

Mr.. LINCOLN replied as follows:

The Captured Rebel Officers.

The SANITARY Commission Bulletin OF
June 18th publishes letter from Mr.. A.
J. BLooE, Assistant Secretary of the Com
mission, describing a visit to the Army of
the Potomac soon after the capture of the
rebel Generals Stuart and Johnson. He
says of the rebel officers: r...
Pretty soon there marched along, under
guard, three men dressed ia rebel gray
. and unarmed. Except for the black
feather, cavalier fashion, across the front
of the hat, and for the three stars on
upturned collar of one of them, they
might have been taken, so far as dress
was concerned, for privates, but these
insignia showed the rank of brigadier
general in the Confederate service. This
was Gen. S uart, . handsome fellow, some
thirty five years old, l should judge, and
who endeavored to conceal his fl elm IS
beneath jaunty and somewhat defiant
manner. His Older companion, wrapped
up in gray overcoat, without any in
sigma of rank visible, and whose grizzly
hair showed through sundry rents in the
most shocking bad hat - ever saw is
Major General johnson; and the third
prisoner is his Acknowledgement. Being
brought to halt, they sit down on some
boxes, and johnson draws from his pocket
copy of the Washington Morning Chron .
icle, and picking out the war news, reads
something in low tone to Stuart, who
nervously laughs.
Not placing implicit confidence myself
in the war news of most Of our newspa-
pers, l fancy they may have discovered
some slight mistake, and therefore feel no
inclination to resent their railery; but the
crowd are not SO lenient, probably think
ing strongly on the subject of Belle Island
and Fort Pillow; and the murmurs in
crease until there is, for a min
ute, danger Of violence being offer
ed to the prisoners but few stern
words from the captain of the guard,
and the ranging of the bayonets of the latter,
soon restores ORDER and the generals and adju-
tant are marched quietly off to the boat that is
to convey them to Fort Delaware or where
yer else. In little while they are followed by
a multitude of rebel officers-fOur hundred in

YANKEE DEpREDATIoNs.- correspondent of

OF the depredations of the enemy in the country
between kinston and Newbern, says:
".At Polocksville half of the village has felt

traces OF their worse than barbarism
L TIED to count the number of DESTROYED and
ruined mansions and estates between this place and
Newben, and my heart grew sick and appalled, at
the task, and ceased. Indeed in the thirty miles
below tnr lines, four -ffths of the buildings have
been turned; dwelling houses, corn cribs cotton

fates And yet the same people who arc doing

Tbs correspondent relates one fact which it
woudb be we'll for all to remember; it is this: The
yankees destroy the property of Union men Lin
coin s,mpathizers) we'll as of "rebels" (southern
symp,thizers). Those miserable tories in the
country who expect to save their property if the
yankees should ever reach their neighborhoods,
will fnd out their mistake. Yankee soldiers when
they lee anything they want do not stop to inquire
Whether it belongs to friend or foe, neither will
they pare farms Or dwellings in the South where
it is possible to destroy them.
