Washington, August 14.?The Lincoln
r *** Government has decided the parole of pris"
oners taken here to be of no effect.
The War*Department has been officially
advised that General Earlc Van Dorn, with
1300 Southerners, is-hetween El Paso and
San Antonio. His supposed object is the
?# **.sufcjpgatigg^of Lower California,
j. . .The"Confederate troops have been.firing
into the. United 'States pickets at Berlin.?
The Unionist"a^jJ/ehend an attack at Point
* of-Rooks. '
Colonel Farnham, of the Fire Zouave
Regiment, who was lately put in a madhouse,
has since died.
There has been great insubordination
among the troops here. The 79th New
York Regiment having been mustered,
400 of them refused to strike their tents.
The Regiment was finally surrounded, and
the ringleaders were arrested. McClellan
took away the colors of the Regiment. His
orders are to shoot down all disobedient
soldiers.
CampB of Instruction are to be established
at New York, Harrisburg, Pittsburg
and Cincinnati. Each volunteer is to be
mustered into service as soon as enrolled, i
and forwarded to one of these points, the
Government paying the expenses of his
transportation. The Government reserves
the right to attaoh soldiers to other companies
or other regiments than those for which
they enlist.

Exoesses of Lincoln's Soldiers*
The following item from the Washington
correspondent of the Herald will serve to 1
show what sort of materia] Lincoln has put i
forward to fight the "battles of the Union,"
as he is pleased to call his abolition raid i
upon the South: i
"Either the military or civil authorities |
of this city should put a stop to the riotous
oonduct of drunken soldiers, who are permitted
to stroll about this city. It was nev- I
er in a worse condition than now. There :
is no safety to pedestrians on the street from ]
being shot. Two men were shot to-night.
Three riots have occurred in one street in
less than twenty-four hours. Soldiers enter
private dwellings and demand money, and '
if refused, tbey offer offensive and insult- 1
* * ' * P A
log language, ana not unirequenuy mreaien
to do violence to those refusing. This
must be stopped, or the occupants of dwellings
and civilians walking upon the street
must resort to such means of self-defence
as will quiet ruffianism summarily, especial- '
ly when there seems to be a want of disposition
on the part of the civil and military
anthorites to do so. Soldiers who disregard
the civilities of life, and violate '
municipal law, will make poor defenders <
for the flag and the Union." 1

New York, August 14.?The Banks of t
Philadelphia, New York and Boston, have t
agreed to take ?50,000,000 of the new loan, v
on the condition that they be made the sole e
recipients of Treasury Notes. J
Robert Mure, of Charleston, bearer of s
despatches from the British Consul at New
Orleans, was arrested on board the steam- c
m J
ship Africa just as she was on the point of r
leaving. Several papers found upon his f
person are said to indicate that be was likewise
the bearer of despatches from the Government
of the Confederate States. (
Further advices by the Persia state that i
the weather in England had been unfavorable
for the crops. a
The London Times says that it was not
supposed that influential houses would con- t
sent to act as agents tor Mr. Lincoln's new t
loan, inasmuch as every element of danger t
surrounds subscribers. The knowing ones \
profess to have reliable advices that the ?
blockade will be abandoned, but that the J
United States tariff will be collected on the
sea. t

I
The Battle of Leesburg.
The fallowing particulars cf the late bat- 1
tie at Leesburg are from a special dispatch
of the Charleston Mercury. t
The enemy's force consisted of 1,700 I
men, a portion of Gen. Banks' army on the t
upper Potomac, and were admirably equip- <
ped and provided in every respect. The \
fight occured at Lovettsville, a small town c
in Loudoun county, about twelve miles c
northwest of Leesburg, and distant only a- j
bout six miles from Gen. Banks' head- c
quarters at Harper's Ferry. The enemy (
crossed the Potomac late on Monday even- j
ing. During that night a great rise in the i
river took place, and all the neighboring
fords were quite impassable. It was in this
condition that Gen. Evans brought up his c
three regiments to attack the enemy. So t
skillfully was his advance planned, that i
our loss, in killed and wounded, was less :
than 20; while the enemy's loss, in killed, I
exceeded 200. The number of prisoners i
taken is nearly 1,500, with a very large r
amount of stores, ammunition, traDsporta- t
tion, arms, ect. $

The Uvtted States Senate and the (
Presiden 's Usurpations.?The United (
States Senate has adjourned without pass- j
ing the Act approving aud giving the sane- f
tion of Congress to the usurpations of pow- (
er on the part of the President, such as the ,
suspension of the writ of habeas eorj)us, \
the increase of the regular aiuiy, and oth- ,
er acts of that character, which he bad no t
right to perform. It was not an oversight ,
upon the part of the Senate. The matter 1
was brought to its attention, but that body, |
composed nearly all of Republicans, ex- ]
pressly declined to endorse the proceeding. ]
Leading Republican Senators frankly con- ]
fessed their disinclination to sanction it. A ,
few weeks ago the Democrats were denounced
as traitors by the Republican press because
they arraingncd the President for :
these violations of the Constitution. What ]
will they say now, when the truth of the I
allegations is admitted by the Republican
Senate, when it refuses to throw over the i
President the shield of their approval ?? <
We begin to have some hope for the Union
when Congress thus shows some indepen- i
dence and regard for the Constitution.
Cincinnati Enquirer. i
Reports from New York.?The Tri- (
hunt says that there is dissatisfaction ainong
various regiments in consequence, it ,
is supposed, of the three months' volun- j
teers, who openly mutined against going to
Tortugas. f
The Herald says that Dumberless inci- |
deots go to show that the Confederates are \
on the eve of attacking the lines.
The Baltimore Secessionists, it is stated,
has received intelligence that the Confede- *
rates are marching on Washington. Gen. c
Scott, it is stated, doubts, this, but MoClellan,
who pretends to know Beauregard's: 1
mode of combination, anticipates an early j]
attack on some point of the Potomac. 'i
The Battle in Missouri.
St. Louis, (via Louisville and Mobile,)
August 14.?The following is the offioial
report of the light near Springfield, on
Saturday,, as brought by one of Lyon's aids
to*.Gen. Fremont. Lyon, in three columns,
under himself, Seigle and Major
Sturgis, attached the -enemy at six on the
morning of the 10th, nine miles Southeast
of Springfield. The engagement was severe.
Our loss about 800 killed and wounded.
Lyon was killed in a charge at the
head of his column. Our force was 8,000
including 2,000 Home Guards. The enemy's
loss is reported heavy, inoluding McCulloch
and Price. This statement is corroborated
by a prisoner.
Siegle retreated loSpringfield at 3 o'clock,
on the 11th, and continued his retreat on
to Holla, bringing off his baggage trains
and 825,000 in specie from the Springfield
Bank.
Baltimore papers of Thursday, and New
York papers of Wednesday, have been received.
The former papers contain full reports
of the battle in Missouri, and the
death of Lyon; also, the contradiction of
the death of McCulloch and Price. Martial
law has been declared in St. Louis.
Southern Finances.
Richmond, August 19.?me rresiaent
to-day approved an act authorizing an issue
of treasury notes, and providing a war tax
for their redemption. The Secretary of
the Treasury, under specified conditions,
is authorized to issue not exceeding one
hundred millions of dollars in treasury notes.
The act provides for a tax of 50 cents on
every 8100 worth of real estate, slaves,
merchandize, bank and other stock, money
at interest, excepting Confederate bonds;
also taxes at same rate cash on hand, cattle,
gold watches, gold and silver plate, pianos,
pleasure-carriages, etc. Any family whose
property is less than 8500 is exempt from
taxation; also colleges, schools, and charitable
institution. The exemption act was
passed unanimously.
Important Hints from Europe.?
From our late Northern papers we have
been able to gather the following very significant
items :
The Paris correspondent of Le Nord, of
Brussels, says it was supposed that M. de
Montholon, Consul General of France at N.
York, was removed in order to appoint him
Minister Representative to the Southern
Confederacy.
The Paris correspondent of the N. York
Herald says:
The semi-official Patrie announces gravey
that "all statesmen in Europe acknowledge
that the South has an undoubted right
;o secede," and quotes Napoleon the First's
>pinions upon that matter. The same jourjal,
as well as the semi-official journals,
T> ! .1 l. T: ?
JUUUtJ irusiueui UUJUUIU 3 liicaattt^c 1U a
nost hostile and bitter tone, and twit us
vith the impossibility of our preventing
ivents that are already accomplished. "The
South can never again enter the Union," ;
ays the Patrie. i
[It is noticeable that ali these hostile h
lomments are before the reception of the <
lews of the battle of Manassas. The ef- i
ect of that is still more decided.] i
A Hard Case.?The editor of the {
}harlestown (Va.) Free Press says, in his ,
ssue of August 2 : I
"On no other point than Charlestowu f
ire the citizens more peculiarly situated ? |
rhey are, in fact, between the devil and ]
he wide ocean. If you get up early in the
norning to go to your daily occupation you |
ire met at your threshold by a sentinel,
vho cries out, "Vere you go?" If you .
mswer about your business, a bayonet is <
jresented, and an exclamation, "Go pack
?go in the house." At every cross-road
iluiost you are hailed and detained. How
oDgwill this inferal interference prevail ?"
Ailuding to the invasion of Charlestown
)y the Hessians, the editor says :
uTho fif>lrl nnnn whieh old John Brown
ind his Confederates were hung was visited
>y thousands of the army, and a locust tree,
luder which, some waggish boy said, ,
John Brown made his last speech"?and |
vhich, by the way, was not within a hun- |
Ired yards of the place of the gallows?was ,
shopped down, and pieces large enough for \
i plow-beam carried away. Not a vestige ,
if the tree is left; stalks of the growing j
:orn were also taken, together with pebbles ,
md earth. We name these things as exhibting
human curiosity, if not depravity."
56^ The Northren papers incite*very
listinctly a growing sentiment in opposition
o the war movement of the United States
Administration. Persons who read only the
Tribune, Herald, Times and JVorld, of
STew York, see Dothing of the returning
eason. Those papers have the credit of
naking the war, and it is not probable that
hey will oppose it until such time as they i
iee that it is an unprofitable business. And
;igns of fear of this already appear in their
:olums. Tn otheu>apers, from all sections
)f the Uuited States, it is plain that there
sa beginning o^a reaction. In New Hamp;hire
and Maine it has exhibited itself very
jonspiouously; and in Newark (N. J.) last
veek one of the largest and most respecta)le
meetings was held to protest against the
jolicv of Mr. Lincoln's Government In
he West there is similar discontent; and
nore especially there because its cities,
vhich rely for Cieir profits on Southern
:rade, have been brought to great distress
oy the blockade. Their markets were chiefy
with the South, and these Mr. Lincoln
has closed They feel the blockade much |
more thaD we.? Carolinian.
A Skirmish on the Peninsula?Firry
Yankees Reported Killed.?The
.Norfolk Daj Book, of Saturday last, gives
fie following:
We learn from the Peninsula that a skirmish
took place over there on Monday last.
One hundred and twenty of our cavalry
were out on a recoDnoitering expedition,
and fell in with a company of sixty-five
Yankees, on JameR River, between Smith's
and Lee's places, above Newport News,
when a fight ensued, which resulted in our
complete success. Out of the sixty-five
Yankees engaged, there were only fifteen
of them left alive to tell the tale of the
daughter.
It is said that a greet deal of successful
skirmishing is going on, on the Peninsula,
ov Gen Magruder's forces, accounts of
,vhich do not reach the press.
An Admission.?The Albany Eveuing
Journal, edited by Thurlow Weed, and the
>rgan of Secretary Seward, says : 1
"We shall not be surprised to learn, in '
ess than sixty days that both France and '
England have pronounced our blockade 1
Deficient."

Whereas the Congress of the Confederate

entitled 'an act respecting Alien Enemies,'

enemies, and in conformity with tbo provisions
of said act:
Now, therefore, I, Jefferson Davis, President
of the Confederate States of America,
do issue this my proclamation, and I do

Battle of Leesburg, Virginia
Richmond, August 15 ?Our troops
gained another brilliant victory near Lees- J
burg on Tuesday afternoon. The news is '
perfectly authentic. It appears that a force
jf about 1700 U. S. troops, detached from
Gen. Banks' division, forded the Potomac
7 ]
nearly opposite Leesburg on Monday eveniug.
Their purpose was probably to make
n short foraging expedition and return before
they could be attacked. During the
night, however, the river became much
swollen by the recent rains and the fords :
were no longer passable. In the meantime,
the Southern scouts having given the
information of their presence at headquarters,
Gen. N. G. Evans, with the 17th and
18th Mississippi Regiments, the 8th Vir- ,
ginia Regiment, and the Richmond Howit- 1
CO'
zer^totallion, hastened to attack the marauders.
Passing through Leesburg on
Tuesday morning, our troops succeded in
surrounding the enemy. After a sharp attack,
during which about 300 of the U. S.
troops were killed and wounded, the remainder,
between 1400 and 1500 in num- |
ber, finding their retreat completely cut off
by the unusual coudition of the river, surrendered
at discretion. Our loss was com- ]
paratively trifling?being only six killed
and nine wounded. A large number of
wagons, with guns and ammunition in abundance,
were taken.
Passengers who arrived to-night by the
train from Manassas report that the news
of this signal triumph is undoubtedly true. 1
A number of wagons had been sent to Leesburg
to bring down the booty.
There have been a Dumber of flying rumors
of fighting at Acquia Creek, but none
of them arc confirmed or generally credited.
The President has to-day issued his
Proclamation, requiring all citizens of the
United States, being males of fourteen years
and upwards, within the Confederate States,
and adhering to the Government of the
United States, and acknowledging the authority
of the same, and not being citizens
of the Confederate States, nor citizens of
the States of Delaware, Maryland, Kentucky,
Missouri, nor of the District of Columbia,
nor the Territories of Arizona and
New Mexico, nor the Indian Territory south (
of Kansas, to depart from the Confederate j
States withiu forty days from the date of i
this proclamation; and such persons remaining
within the Confederate States after
that time shall become liable to be treated
as alien euemies.
The proclamation, however, excepts all 1
citizens of the United States residing within
the Confederate States, with intent to become
citizens thereof, and who shall make ;
i declaration of such intention, in due form, 1
ind acknowledging the authority of the :
Crovemment of the Confederate States.?

9^ The condition of our prisoners in 1
Washington is represented as most afflicting.
All communications with their fami- 1

tricted to bread and water by ao order of

contributions of ladies in Washington and r
Baltimore, our prisoners had been supplied
with many comforts and delicacies, until
the recent order of Gen. Mansfield. A

rHE subscribers hereby notify the
Farmers and Planters of the Southern Confederacy
lat they are now establishing a factory for the production
f a commercial Fertilizer, which they believe will be
mnd equal to any fertilizer heretofore purchased from the
'orth. All the ingredients of the SOUTHERN COMOUND
FERTILIZER are found in abundance In the
outh, and only require the application of scientific knowljge
to make us perfectly independent of our enemies, even
i this particular.
uur intention Is to sen our nanters an nonesi anu mimic
Fertilizer, peculiarly adopted to our own soil, climate,
ad crops, and, as far ns possible, shield them from the
-oss.Impositions so frequently palmed upon tliem by Norlern
manure pianufacturcrs.
Our Fertilizer contains all the elements necessary for the
>od of plants, being composed of PULVERIZED NIGHT
OIL, POTASH, DISSOLVED BONES, 8ULPHURIC
CID, PLASTER and LIME. The manure thus formed,
mtalnlng a largo per centagc of potash and other nlkallne
ilts, will render it invaluable for cotton, and will be found
> influence the growth of all other crops sufficiently early
i the season, though not quite so promptly as Feruvian
uano. It will hold out longer, and mature the seed pcrctly,

speaks quick when spoken to.

inches high, and will weigh 175 pounds ; has a heavy brow
and speaks slowly ; has some character as a runaway. May

' Factory to produce an equal in performance or speed.?
' With good, dry Cotton, the roll in the gin cannot be broken
nor made to spew over?which cannot be said of any other
gin. Ilia gin also has advantages and improvements which
no other can have, as these have been regularly patented,
?such as 'he exclusion of rats from the brush, fcc., by the
peculiar construction of the gin, which no other has a
' right to make. He also makes THRASHERS of diiferent
J construction to suit the wish of any one; the spike beater
1 combined, the smooth drum with fingers and no spikes
and different other patterns. He has also the right of the
1 celebrated Garlington Thrashers which are very much admired

of 3675,000, bearing an interest of seven per cent., for the
purpose of providing the funds required to sustain the State
in the act of resuming her rights of sovereignty, tills Bank is (
now prepared to dispose of tile Bonds. They are Issued In i
sums of 350,3100 and $500. An opportunity is thus afforded
every citizen to make a secure and profitable invest
ment, while contributing aid to the cause in whicfli the
State is engaged. Willi the view of enabling citizens In
any [>art ot the State to share in the Loan, the Clerks of the
Conns of the several districts have been required to open .
bonks of subscription for the Stock. Suitable arrangements
will be made for furnishing the Bonds on tnc receipt of the
money, at an early day alter each subscription lias been
made. Engagements tor the purchase of Bonds may be '
made at the Bank, or any of Its Branches. It Is probable
that, at the next session of the Legislature, those parties
who desire it may have their Bonds converted into Stock.
