The Commanding General therefore earnestly exhorts the troops to abstain, with most scrupulous care, from unnecessary or wanton injury to private property and honor joins upon all officers to arrest and bring to summary punishment all who shall in any way offend against the orders on this subject.

is it that the ball which summoned them to their high and holy task no longer swings in its ancient turret; the iron tongue which then spoke of union and brotherhood, of a common purpose and a common hope to the salesmen of Massachusetts and of Carolina, of Virginia and of Pennsylvania, could speak now to sound the fierce alarum of war.

The situation is more interesting and critical than it has been at any time since April 25th, 1862, when Farragut, with his fleet, appeared before New Orleans and demanded the unconditional surrender of the city. These things cannot but be disheartening to those Northern editors who have published so glowing accounts of the immense quantity of cotton and sugar which must necessarily come into market after the advance through the rich Attakanas cou

Progress of the war. The Yankee dispatches. The dispatches in the Yankee papers are curiosities in their way. The New York Herald, of Saturday, professes to give the very latest news, and to be ahead of its contemporaries. One of its dispatches, dated Baltimore, 3d, 10 P. M., says that Meade had driven Lee, four miles northeast of Gettysburg. This is followed by a dispatch, dated Hanover, Pa., 4th, 1 A. M., three hours later, which says Lee had been driven only three quarters of a mile. A telegram in the Philadelphia Inquirer, which the telegrapher says is a "brief and candid statement," says the Yankees were "repulsed, overpowered, and outflanked," on Wednesday, but on Thursday repulsed the rebels with "substantial success." On that evening he says Gen. Meade called a council of his corps commanders, and it was resolved to continue the fight so long as there was any one left to fight. A dispatch about Friday's fighting, dated at midnight, states that the fighting was fe

not on the spot to support the brave General Sedgwick and his gallant troops when they carried the fortifications on the heights of Fredericksburg? --With the assistance of Heintselman's army, thrown in at the right moment, the whole rebel army could have been completley annihilated, and the nation saved from disgrace and humiliation. Instead of this, the rebel army is now invading and desolating the loyal and free States. If you had been equal to your duty and the occasion, the troops at Suffolk, Fortress Monroe, Norfolk, Baltimore, &c., &c., would have been on board of swift steamers — ready before the battle commenced — to have been concentrated and launched at the enemy like thunderbolts from avenging Heaven. A few more such fatal mistakes as you made on that occasion and our Government is lost, and will break up in anarchy.--This is so. Our nation is in or at another fearful crisis. The audacious Gen. Lee, having faith in your imbecility, has boldly invaded one of our most po

the point where they are the nearest being impregnable. Two or three such gaps in their line, they are obliged to draw back to their inner line, battery after battery being silenced, until the compass of their works is so small that from every side they are in range of some of our cannon. Locomotion above ground thus becomes impossible; without this they are unable to feed or relieve their over tasked men, and so are whipped. We can scarcely imagine that even the vindictive tenacity of Pemberton will continue resistance to this extremity when the finale is in no way changed. This would be a long process to undertake, and involve an immense amount of work and life in view of the vast furrows of pits and the sacrifices already made, but it would grow more rapid as we proceeded, as it is also certain of its end.

quis of Clanricarde, Earl Russell, and the Duke of Somerset, on the subject of the American blockade and the seizure of British traders by our cruisers is published. Earl Russell took occasion to compliment Chief Justice Taney, of the United Stater, and Admiral Wilkes. The London Post, of the 17th June, has an editorial referring to the debate, in which it says: "Up to the present time, however, there is nothing to show that the captains of American cruisers have acted in a reckless spirit. The instructions given by Mr. Seward to the Navy are unexceptionable." Mr. Stidell, the States, has had a very long conference with the Emperor of France. The Emperor sent for him, and had a private telegraphic with him at breakfast, and did not part with him until the Council of Ministers had assembled. This interview has given strength to the rumor that a renewed offer of mediation in American affairs by the Emperor Louis Napoleon is likely to be the result of the fall of Pasbla.

is everything, except the uncertainty of American politics, to make us regard such an event as probable. It would almost seem that the President himself would have no objection to peace if he knew how to reach it. Perhaps this meeting may show him the way. If an armistices were proclaimed, we believe that neither party would be in a hurry to renew the war, and the derive of peace would supply the two Governments with the strongest motive for coming to reasonable terms of separation. Mr. Spence, of Liverpool, (the financial agent of the Secessionists,) has resumed his letters to the London Times. He contends that little or nothing has yet been effected in the work of subduing the South, expatiates on what the Southerners have done in the field, and asserts that a policy of exhaustion is likely to be more damaging to the North than the South. He holds out a gloomy prospect for the North if the struggle is allowed to go on for another year. A full report of the speeches deli
