ORISIS OF PATRIOTISM AND TREASON.

On the Fourth of July, 1778, American Hberty and Sndependence was declared; on the same day, in 1863, we may say that it was preserved. The Fourth, o{ this momentous year, was celebrated in complete victory over Lee, and the surrender of Vickabury. On the same day the following was circulated in the streets of Now York :

‘This Iset engagement has been the flerceat and most sanguinary of the war, It was begun at day- light by Goneral Slocum, whoee troops, maddened Uy the fous of many comrales, and cager to retrieve the position lost by them on the preceding eveaing, advanced and delivered n destructive fire against the rebela under Ewell.

A Taroily shaft has been broken in fragmentaby a shell, and only the base remains, with a portion of the Inecription thereon, Stone after stone felt the elects of the feu denfer that was poured upon the crest of the bill, Cannon thundered, and foot and horse eolllers tramped aver the sleoping place of the dend, Other dead were ailded to thoae who are rea ing here, and many a wounded soliier atill lives to remember the conteat above those silent grave position oF ¢ y MILE—ITS TMVORTANCE, The bill on which this cemete ted was the centre of our Ine of battle and the key to the whole porition. Had the rebele been able to carry this point, they would have forced ue into retreat, and The whole battle would have been lost. To pierce our live here was Leo's great endeavor, apd he threw his best brigades against it, Wave after wave of living valor rolled up that elope only to Poll back again under the deadly fire of our artil. ery and tofantry. Jt was on this hill, a little to the right of the cemetery, where occurred. the charge of the famous brigade of Louisiana Tigers. It wns their boast that they were never yet folled {a an at- tempt to take a battery, but on this occasion they pufftred a defeat and nearly annihilation, Sad and Gispirited they mourn their repulso and terrible losses in the charge. ° THE TATTLE GROWN From the summitof this hill « large portion of the battle ground is sprend out before the apectator. 1 front and st hia {eet Nes the thwn of Gettysburg, containing in quict times populationlof four or five fhoueand souls, Lt is not more than a hundred yarda to the houece in tho edge of tho village where the contest with the rebel sbarpebooters took place.

Dloving still to the left, I found an orchard in which the fighting appears to have beoo desperate In theextreme. Artillery shot had ploughed through, the ground in every dircetion, and the trees uid not by any means eacape the fury of the storm. The Joog balla of Iron, said by officera present to be 8 moulficatlon on the Whitworth projectile, Isy every- where ecattered. The rebcla moat have been well supplied with this species of ammunition, acd they evidently used it with no sparing haod. At one time [ counted twelve of these bolts lying on a space not fifty feet square. Iwas told that the forcat in rear of our position was full of these shot that need over our heads in the timo of the action. he rebel artillery fire hae heretofore bees excel lent, but I am told that on the prescnt occasion It was’ not accurate, Why it was so Is difficult to explain.

No doubt, as Alexan- der IT, Stephens and Robert Ould, the so- called commissioners of the traitors at Rich- mond, were steaming up and down the James river, 4 few duys ago, waiting an answer to the insolent appeal of Jetlerson Davis to Abraham Lincolu—no doubt these fitting re- presentatives of audacions treason relied upon this very ‘‘ miagnanimity’ as a great point in their favor, Mad their cartel? been received, I have renson to think it would not have been very acceptable to our Government, though it would

have been eagerly welcomed by the men who look for peace on any terms. What renders these simultancous move

ments of the rebels and the sympathizers with the rebels more reckless and impudent, is the fact that there és a standing offer open to the insurgents which they can accept atany time, and iwhich they could have accepted at any time since they lifted the ussassin'a hand aguinst tha Republic. That offer is un- conditional submission to the authority they haye defied, and an unconditional surrender of all their forces, I know they expect 4 better bargain; but if they could not force such a bargain when they were winning

is the spectacle before him? Missouri has deereed that slavery shall die at the end of seven~years. Kentucky is held in the double grasp of local loyalty and the Union forces. Tennessee is reorganizin under the bold auspices of Andrew Johnson, distinct ground that the ordinance ss usurpation, and, of course, that those who concocted it are traitors to the laws and can never be re stored to citizenship. But the worst sign of thetimes to Day vaneo and approaching conques of the cotton or Arkansas and Florida, under the ration of the Unie feeling’ of the new population thrown into them, should apply for readmission into the Union, having framed new Constitution, without slavery, and elect Senators and Representa- tives to the next Congress?

North Carolina is more than half ripe for revolt the Confederacy. It is easy to see, afler the fallyof Port Hudson, how difficult it will ve for Davis to hold sway over what will then be left of his dominions. No peace can ever restore rebel supremacy in the South, in the face of the rapid movements of our armies and na- yies, and against the organizations referred to, which are uprooting the old forms and pouring new blood into the decrepid car- casses that once acknowledged, under force, the rule of the conspirators. The trie road to Insting pence is plain. If ever made, it must be, not at the sacrifice of what has been gained by the Union army, nor yet by the remission to tyranny and slavery of the people of the South; but in the sense and on (he condition of prescroing and protect ng eth. Have the Northern peace agitators ever reflected that there are now two powers in the seceded

tions—that of the weakening and atf- frighted™ traitors, and that of the recupera- ted people, who, backed by the puissant wilitary divisions of the Government, haye sworn never to go back to\the fatal oppres: sion of their former slaye-masters? We must choose between these two powers; and any adjustment that Jeaves the ter tory in possession of the situation, would only be a new provocation to bloodshed. Eyents are marching with resistless and gigantic tread; and it will not be long, I think, before the plotters in the North and the conspirators in the South will discover that the only power that can make peace in the South, is that com- posed of the men who have suffered and bled for their hostility to Secession, and the new clement that has beew liberated from bondage, and that other which consti- tutes the armed emigration that came firstto smite the territory and, (len to remain us part oieners of Meir fo

THE ADMINISTRATION.

isa day on which the friends of the Aad ehtion may rejoice—for, in the

4 that now stirround the Ameri- can naihe, wocan seen reulization of their uty anddeyotion, The time was—and not many weeks ago—when fealty to the Ad- ministration was a weary and solemn thing; for men began to look upon those in power as the cause of all our woes, and attributed the invasion of the State—the misfortunes in the Southwest—the inaction of Rosecrans —to what they were pleased to call the ma- lign influences of Washington, Mr, Wes- DELL Pureiirg, in bitter and choice phrases, thanked God for defeat, because we were unworthy to secure victory, and chorused the angry denunciations of such men as Fersanpo Woop, The extreme insinceri- ty of such orators as Mr. Privurs may be seen in this—that the President they abuse and villify with so much energy gave them emancipation. Tt is the part of mediocrity and baseness to see no mo- tives but the worst, and to suppose the | absence of honor and truth in man, and the speeches of Mr, Pawsuirs are illustrations of this, fecling, A hundred reasons may bo given for the victory of July. The first should certainly bo the directing mind of the Department of War—another the courage of the Army of the Potomac and its new commander. We might admit these thin, without any particular exhibition of Tosity, and it is diflicult to see how we can | resist this admission ; but, to listen to the | rhodomontade of Mr, Parnures and his fol- | lowers, we should suppose that the Depari- | ment of War was the only obstacle in the J way of victory, and if the army had never

wand atafl were algo present throughout the eerylce, | been troubled with generals and Cabinet, it

might haye gone to Richmond in an accom- modation train, A newspaper press, of which the New York Jndependent and the New York World are the representatives, seems to rejoice in our sas evidences of the blundering criminality ot the Goyern- ment, Of cou the New York, Herald does the same thing, but, ns nobody places any confidence in it, we only allude to its opivions to contrast them with those of the Jndcpendent, This latter journal takes the occasion of the victory to denounce :Penn- sylvania for her apathy, the Government for its “stupendous trifling,” avd the appoint- ment of General Maps as ‘an officiul ac- cident.” Such things are easily said; but are they the words ot frankness and bouor ?

Not many days ago these writers were clamoring for victory. "Give us Fre Mont," suid one party, ‘and we shall con- quer.” "Give us MeCbennan,” said an- other party, ‘and we shall be sayed!'’ Instead of calling upon the people to Iny aside all feeling or care, and take up’ arms against (he inyader, they endenvored to sti- mulate his energies and prevent the people from meeting him ina proper spirit. These were the wen who epent their tine in writing petitions to the Goyernment con- taining impertinent demands, and endeavor- ing to rule when they should have_attempt- edtosave. These were the men who met the enemy with words of despondency and reproach; who qalculated the probabilities of submission within the sound of the: ene- my's cannon, and fashioned flags of truce when they should haye primed their mus. kets, Not one word of joy or hope was henrd from then in the inidst of the general gloom; they railed at the thunder when they should have given their hands to the ship. Sustained by the people—by the men of ll parties who thought more of their country than of their political organization, and more of the ceneral danger than of their favorit ajor generals—the Administration continued calmly to do its duty, to mect every danger as it developed, and to labor con- stantly for the public good. It is possible they might haye Jabored more eficiently ; that McCLEenLan or Fremont might have performed marvels, and that if the countels of Mr. Wenpent Pmvurrs had been fol- lowed the war would now be at anend. It is possible, too, that General Mrapn may be very incompetent, and that his campaign in Pennsylvania is something of a failure ; but we do not think so, nor do the people entertain such an opinion. They see great results, and they thank God for having given their soldiers strength to accomplish these results. They thank the Administra- tion for having so directed their valor that victory has come. They thenk their public servants for nergy, and courage, and forti- tude, and they hold themselves ready and anxious to do greater battle for the safety of the Republic, and to make greater sacritices thatthe nation may be rescued and redeemed.

INTERVENTION. AND REQOGNI- TION.

We cannot resist the conclusion that a strenuons effort is being made to force the great Buronean’ Powers to recognize the ye- bellion as the Southern Confederacy, and thus intervene in the war for the Union. ‘There has evidently been a general uuder- standivg among the friends of the rebellion every where—in the North and in the Sonth, the military and naval forces, the diplomatic agents in Europe, and their writers for the forcign press. ‘The plan seems to have been ingeniously arranged. General LEE was to moye his army into Pennsylvania xbout the middle of Jone, threatening Harrisburg, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, creating a panic throughout the North, and presenting to the European world the sp’ tacle of the insurrectionary forces invading the loyal States. About the latter part of June, or rather about the time that the news of Lee’s inyasion reached England, Mr. Roenvck’s motion in the House of Commons in .fayor of a recognition of the Southern Confederacy would » be brought up and debated. In the mean-

we seo that the writers for the ish papers, in the interest of the South, aye commenced to discuss intervention, nnd to insist upon the recognition of the Confederacy, My, SrEnce, the Southerp financial agent and the ablest of the pro- slavery English writers, resumes his contzi butions to the Tires, in which he argues that the war is to destroy Southern inde- pendence, and that ‘ recognition being com patible with neutrality,” it ebuld not lead to war, and would be ‘a true and etfecti measure of peace.’’ Mr, SLIDELL is closet- ed with the Emperor of the French, and the French journals are dwelling upon the natu- ral sympathy existing between the French in Mexico'and the rebels in the States. Proposals are made to Spain to eu- ter with France into the work of recogni- tion, Tn the meantime, Lee adyauces, the pavie increases, and in the midst of the loom, and anxiety, and dread, and deso- lation that the invasion would be supposed to produce iv the North, Mr. Srepnens knocks at the door of Washington with his proposal for pence,

All this bas been arranged with a degree of care and detail and « familiarity with stage effect, which the “persistent manager of the company that had played at Stras- urg and Boulogne,” as Mr. Krnouake calls Lovis Naroreon, would enjoy. We can imagine an orator like Mr. Roenucr, or a writer like Mr. SPENCE, with the invasion of Pennsylvania fora theme, The House of Commons would ring with hostile cheers, and the columns of the Times would glisten with earnest and rounded sentences, The refusal to meet Mr, SterneNs, who came with his olive branch by way of Fortress Monroe, while Lee carried the sword by way of Harper's Ferry, would be regarded as unact of madness, justifying the interfe- rence of. other uations to save the people from the insane course of their rulers, and the Sonth being the invader, recognition would be an act of humanity to the North, and foreign public opinion, intensified and curried away, wowd sustain the act. Viewed lu this way, we can how eamestly and clabo-

easily sce

rately the plan for intervention has been 1 suceeeded in hold-

prepared, Tf Lee lh ing Pennsylvania, onr position would be dificult and embarrassing, and we might bave been at the mercy of the uations, Tn-

| teryention would have been a more serious

matter than we may now imagine, and the cause of the Republic would have passed from war to diplomacy, Gettysburg and Vicksburg haye ended these dangers, With

the swiftness of retribution, the yictory of the Army of the Potomac came upon the plans of these scheming gentlemen, and all their splendid combinations—their speeches, proclamations, peace embassies, and news- paper articles—haye been blown to the winds, Mr. Briowr may auswer Mr. Ror- BUOK With the news of these two victories | when the debate on recognition is again commenced, and the friends of the Republic can ask no better argument than the pa- | tient, persistent, und undaunted valor that | has crowned our arms with triumph,

Vicksburg and Gettysburg! Mr. SPENCE may write, and Mr. Roznocs may shout, | and the silept Emperor may twirl his sly | mustache and smile upon Mr. Suinett— we scorn them all. Lee huddling under the banks of the Upper Potomae, and the pa- roled Pryrmenron plodding his soiemn way from Vicksburg to Talladega, show to what astrait the Southern cause is reduced. In the Southwest, the Confederacy is asunder; in the Bast, it is reeling and bleeding. England and France will hardly recognize these remnants of a desperate and causeless rebellion, If any davger existed, our own good swords have destroyed it ; and so long as Wwe continue to prosecute the war with the vigor and success now everywhere seem, we may despise the enmity of foreign Powers, and laugh at their schemes for our overthrow.

At about 10!; o'clock this moralng the cto: rushed in and xeized the books and papers, And used great violence towards the officer and reporters preeent, who managed to eacape, with the exception of Aseletaat Deputy Vanderpool, who was badly beaten beyond recovers.

Soon after the bullding wae burned, the demons meanihile atoning the upper part of the bullding, where some half a dozen familice lived. The nd- Joining building caught fire, and was sleo destroyed, the rufans shouting with frenzied joy while It wns in ames. Women were aleo in te mob inciting them on,

All the horee cara were stopped, and tho drivers taken off by the crowd, The police were overpow- cred and terribly beaten. A blacksmith shop near by was demolished, and {te owner nearly killed.

A detachment of seventy-five of the provost guard arrived atthe sceno st noon, and drew up in line between Forty-fourth and Forty-fifth atrects, on Third avenue, They were quickly eurrounced by an intensely-exotted mob, who stoned and jecred them. The roldlers fired into the ruiians, when they were eet upon®and driven off, and puraued for sbouta mile, One of the soldlers was caught, and actually beaten to death by both men and women fiends. Another was nearly tora to pleces, thrown over a precipiee, and bis body atoned until halt buried.

Soon after # equad of police arrived, but were driven off—one of thelr number belng tora to plecea and kicked to a jelly, The stores in the viciolty were coon closed by, the owners, and the rotera had everything their own way. The firemen were nos allowed to play on the fire.

The most horrible and benstly outrages have been perpetmated. Some twelve or thirteen policomen have been so brutally treated that thelr recovery is almost hopeless. No doubt exiats aa to the death of Superintendent Kennedy

At about 3 o'clock this afternoon the mob, moved further down town, when the firemen went fo work on the buillogs on Third avenue. Tt was then aa certained that & house had heen entered where a Indy had just been suffering the panga of confinement, and although no violence was perpetrated, a number of articles were stolen,

At2o’clock, Mr. Howard, late elty editor of the New York Tintes, waa attacked by the mob, who erled ont Here's an Abolition{at !” and were About tohang him to a Iamp-poat, when thelr attention waa diverted, snd he ran for higllfe. The crowd chased him, and alruck him on the back of his head and in the face with heavy atones, stunting him for atime. They then robbed him of his wateh and chalo, diamond breastpin, sod thirty-three dollars in money, Ho was with difficulty rescued, and taken toan engine house—the doors of which re slated the efforts of the mob, He was doally taken to more secure place of anfety. His injuries are eerious.

The mob tore up iron fences to arm themsclvea, and at about Jo’clock the ruitinae, accompanted by thelr female abettorg, armed with clubs, plstole, bara of iron, snd other weapons, marched up the Firat avenue, threatening all connected with earrying into effect the couseription act.

‘The Arsenal waa threatened, but the presence of detachment of the loth Volunteers haa provented an attack. Hovitzersare stationed there and at the 7th Regiment Armory, loaded with caniater, which will be used on the first demonatration, — ,

The whole block on Third avenue was burned. A pereon named Andrawe, of Virginia, who has lately: hataogued the mectinga at Cooper Inetitute, seemed to be the leader of the mob, and addressed them rear tho ruins, while the destruction of the build- Inga waa golog on, He denounced the President ani advleed the people to organize to. realet the draft. The howling devils, after this harangue, proceeded to the large and beautiful dwolling at the corner of Forty-acventh street and Lexington avenue, and completely sacked It, The Mbrary, glasees, parlor and bedroom furnlture, were thrown {nto the street. ‘The hose was then fired ani burned to the groua

A detachment of a hundred regulars arrived at about three o'clock, and reported to Provost Mar thal Nugent. Thoy were sent to the arsenal, the exeltement around which 1s great,

At about four o'clock aome threo thousand of the araied mob marched down the Fifth avenue, groan {ng the conscription. Governor Seymour will pro- bably arrive this eveniog.

Mayor Opdyke has lssued a proclamation againat the riotere, and declaring that order shall be pre- served.

Measures are being taken by Gen. Wool, which will probably prove effectual in quelling the rioters.

Every negro who has been seen by the mob hns deen either murdered or-horribly besten, Some tveaty have thus far been killed.
