For the Advertiser. The " Edgefield Rangers." DEa.u CoLoNP.L:-It affords me great pleasure to give you a slight account of the incidents and doings at Camp McDuflie, at Horse Creek Bridge, where tho Edgefield Ranyers have been encamped during the last week. By the bye, the very spot near which they were encamped is the one upon which Gen. McDUFFIE made one of his greatest speeches during Nullification times. I may as well state here that this Company expects, in a short tiae, to go into one of the Camps of In struction ordered to be formed by Gov. PscKe s. Wednesday last was the great day of the week. Some of the patriotic ladies of Hamburg and viognity had previously purchased a Bugle for the Company and that day was qelected as the time for presenting it, and Miss lHAxxoCTs, the daugh ter the accomplished Commander of the Corps, was selected to nake the presentation speech. In accordance with the arrangements for the day, the Company having been formed in proper array, in the presence of a large concourse of spectators of both sexes, Miss H. presented the Bugle nccom panied with the following remarks which were delivered in a clear and distinct voice and alto gether in a manner highly creditable to one so young : ADDRESS OF MISS HAMMOND. LIr-r. WUrATrrY and Edrfield Ranger::-Our Country is invaded! The polluting footsteps of a Northern rabble have already desecrated our be loved soil, which is daily being consecrated by the blood of patriot martyrs, whom it becomes our duty to avenge. Already has Virginia's soil been stained by the blood of some of South Carolina's noblest and bravest sons. War with all of its devastating horrors is before us. Knowing this full well, it becomes the duty of every man-aye! of every woman and child, to prepare for the de fense of our country. We know not at what mo ment a John Brown may spring up in our very midst. How necessary is it then, to prepare to ward off the ruin, and desolation and assassinna tion, which would inevitably follow if such should be the case. And that such may be the case, un less the necessary preventions are taken, is firmly believed by many minds. Wo know that many are doing their duty and preparing for the worst, but may there not be some, even here, who are doing nothing ? If there be any such in this audience, if but one, let me beseech that one to follow the example set. before him, and likewise do his duty. For sadly indeed would it grieve our hearts to know that there is even one in the Old Palmetto State, who is wanting in patriotism. It thrills our hearts with pride and pleasure to see this gallunt band, though small in numbers, stand ready and willing, to do their whole duty. We have no doubt that every female present looks upon you with true patriotic pride, assured that you will perform well your part wherever placed. Feeling this, we take the greatest pleasure in show ing you every mark of esteem and respect in our feeble power. With the approbation and patriotic zeal of the fair sex, can your patriotic ardor cool' We think not; for the smiles of woman ever carry with them their influence. Already have you been the recipients of the ldies' bounty. Once before have you received from them a token of estee. Not long since the ladies of Beech IUland pre sented you with that tlag, showing you l-y that act of their approbation, that they were not unin terested spectators of the nob'e and heroic part wxhich you arc ae:ing. Now I come before you, as the honored repre !entative of a portion of th.e ladies of amlurg and viciuity, to present you with this Uugle, nse an incentive to greater eftorts on your parts i that be possible, to rekindl~c the sparks of lmttrioit isme slumsberitig within, :al nmake you moreC fully aware of your duty to us and to yor cotgmsry. As I have before said we will do aill ins ousr powei to aid and encourage you, an d hen shuold you bes called from us, we will daAs away the forts fallin; tears, raise our eyes and lift our hearts in ferve: prayer, to the G;reat ituler of the 1:niverse, imo ploring your protections. Knowing the msan, and imnportasnt uses of the Bugle in ime of war. let mee assure you, that the ladies in whse bechalt I appear before you, take peculiar pride ins pre senting you with this. And may we not hoipe, that, is your courage souldl ever falter, the sigh: of that thag anud the sound of this Bugle wiil re tud you, thiat you are i-ht ing for loveid ones at hsome ? What an impor tant part does this instrument. stiple as it seems, pilay on the tented field I1 is this, that first calls you in asssemlhy. It is this. that bids you charge. It is this that hids ytou rally. How proud, then, are we, your wives, mothers, sisters, daughters and perhsaps sweet hearts, to be allowed the priv:ilege of presenting you with this Bugle! And if ever you abhuld, almost overcome bsy superior numbers, seek safety in flight (aud what other timea wouhld Siuth Cars hinias flee ?) let the chirioni notes of this Bugle, rinsging loid ands clear abo've the din o~f battle, the roar of cannsons and the rattle of musketry. cause von to rally. Niw, whenever you appear upon the field of .conflit, let your beautiful flag ho ever wavinig .oaver you. the sound of this iugle ever fallinig 02n gour ear<, remiu-lingyonus . rc foreibly of 'heecause .in which you are enigageid and we feel assaured .that you, the E :/~ieldl inge,, wnill either re iturn victorioutS, or else, every mant of you, meet a glorious death. Lieut. WuIATrutY respondled iu a suitable nma -.er on behalf of the Rangers. REPLY OF LIE UT. WJIATLEY.

Thse whole affair passed off with mtuchi reled and was an occasion long to be remembered not only on aceount of the associationss cosneted with the account of the present momentous issues calling the Company into existence. On Saturday, August 3rd, the last day of the encampment, the following Resolutions were en thusiastically adopted: Yours. &c. C. Reaolred, That the thanks of this Corps are tendered to the Richmond Jfuassars for the use of their tents. flesofred, That to the Rev. Dr. Cunningham we are greatly indebted for his beautiful and truthful address, and for the fervent prayer sent up to the Throne of Grace in behalf our Country and of our Corps. Rksolred, That we acknowledge with profound gratitude, the liberal and patriotic donations to this Corps, from Mr. .JOIINATH AN MII.L.a and Mr. D. A. J.

HAMMOND, Cit.AxAN. ANors Bnowx, Sce'ry. Report of the Secretary of the Treasury. In the Confederate Congress on Tuesday last the report of the Secretary of the Treas ury was presented and considered in secret session. The Richmond Examiner says of it: It is understood that the report was uainly in answer to a resolution passed at the late sessi:>n of Congress, instructing the Secretary t prepare a statenent touching the amount received from all sources and expended under direction of the Government; and also tabu lar statistics of taxable property in the sever al States of the Confederacy. In round nutn bers, it is believed the expenditures have been about 810,000,000, up to 1st of July, while receipts have been about 814,000,000. The former includes an item of $400,000 re funded to South Carolina in part satisfaction of' her outlay in way of preparation for de fence, anterior to her adoption of the Consti tution of the Confederate States. The Secretary of the Treasury estimates the taxable property, real and personal, of the eleven States at c',,700.000,000. Secre tary Chase puts that of the United States at 410,000,000.000 ; but many of his values are fictitious and ephemeral, while the estimates of the Confederate Secretary are based on solid securities. The expenditure of the Con federate Government does not, of course, in clude the expense incurred by the States prior to their connection with the Southern Confederacy, except the case alluded to of South Carolina. The balance of her outlay of $(00,000 has been taken in Confederate honds, no mention of which is made in the ntount to the credit of' the (overement. he Secretary will soon issue $20,000,000 'Treasury notes, which the banks will take on deposit and in liquidation of dues. No additional recommendation is under 4tood to be made in this report touching the inancial policy proper to be pursued by the Confederate States. WARa MovEMu Ts AND REPoRTS.-Passen gers from Manassas state that the most of our troops had moved forward to their old posi tions. Preparations of an extensive charac ter are in progress, and before a great while e teamy confidently count on active move mnents. Our pickets extend beyond Falls Church, and the Confederate cavalry daily chaze squnds of' Federal scouts into their lines 'tL Arlington and Alexandria. The bridges on the railroal, lately destr)yed, are being rapidly rebuilt, and everything indicates early operations on the uffen.ive. The Cau:lefder ie trotops are now divided into two corps 'armee: the lir.-L under command of Gen. Johnston, the seconi under that of Gen. Ikatregarid. Th'lere is s.ailI to be no cotiiet : the mniliutary pi.r.iinus of' these two divi ,Iios of' our~ army. (Gen. .hioon occupies, virh his for'ces, the adviancetl posit ion.

We learn that Wmn. 13. Astor did, aifter all, give that fifteecn millions he promnised, in fur theance of the war against, the rebels. A gentleIan, julst fromn New York, informs us that the pioperty of Mr. Astor', which before the war was esti :nated at twenty-five mnillions, i now set down at ten millions.
