Credit OF 100 Daxs, Men.

1t will be a matter of no little satisfac-
ton to those sections of the State that
furnished 100 days men, to learn that
Gov. Brough has:efected an arrangement
nth the War Department by which Ohio
) allowed credit of 5000 on her draft
quota for the services rendered by the
troops named. This will give several of
the towns in this county a big lift on
their quotas. Of course it is all right
that those towns that sent 100 days men
should have the benefit accruing under
this just and equitable arrangement.

| have just time to say this morning
that our forces hold their position on the
Weldon Railroad good and strong.
The I'd corps and other forces are ar
irving from the extreme right, and this
being a vital position to the Confederacy,
a desperate conflict is momentarily ex-
pected.
the roads are very heavy, and are diff
cult for military operations in the field.
This has been increased by the recent
rain several hundred per cent.
Our losses in the recent fighting haV e
been heavy but not as large az that of
the enemy. We have lost some heavy
captures, but not as many as we have
captured in the same way.

New YoRK, Aug. 81

NEW 1oRK, aug. Il.
The Sunday Herald dispatch states
that recent movements leave only one
road to Danville over which the rebels
can only obtain supplies for their army
and Richmond.
A dispatch from Sheridan's command
to the Herald of the Doth states that
about 5000 rebel covalry dashed into
M~artinsburg yesterday afternoon, but
captured nobody. Sheridan expected an
attack on Satusday, and was fully pre-
pared.
Averill had a small skirmish with the
rebel cavalry near Bunker Hill on Satur-
day.
A Harper's Ferry dispatch of tie 18th
states that when our cavalry were evac-
uating Winchester the citizens fred on
Gen. Wilson and u troops from their
houses.
With the exception OF the above, pa
pers contain nothing additional to dis
patches of last night.
The Herald's correspondent Of the Ar
my of the Potomac of the goth, 5 P. NJ,
says,
Yesterday was the quietest day we
have had in front of Petersburg for a
month. Scarcely a FIRE has been heard
the whole day.
The Weldon road, where Warren's
corps has taken position, considerable
skirmishing with occasional discharges of
artillery occurred, but nothing resem-
bling an engagement took place. In
the afternoon the enemy moved a force
from heal Petersburg toward our left. and
made an attempt TO force our line near
the Junction road, but finding the road
was not 80 easy as they anticipated, aban-
doned it. They took four prisoners. how
ever, before they left.
The number of casualties in the 5th
Corps on Tuesday was about $50. About
midnight some batteries in front of the
18th Corps opened, and also On the left.
A sharp engagement was kept up for
several hours, with the result so far as
could be ascertained of nobody injured;
at this time a gun can be heard.
The roads are becoming bad in con-
sequence of the rain which has fallen
during the present week, and still con

ResolUed. That in times like these,
there can be no d~issension among truly

professed Union men who are endeav or

ranks whether in the army or Out of it,
and are thus deliberately and directly
contributing to the triumph of the rebel
lion, the disruption of the Union, and
the obstruction of the Government.
Resolved, That the recent attack upon
the President by Messers, Wade and Da-
Wis, is, in our opinion, i'll timed, ill-tem-
pered and illadvised, carrying great and
undistinguished Joy to rebel camps in the

inasmuch as one of the authors of said
