Allow me to say that the address of the com- molitee has been much assailed by ieading and influential journals,comducted by those whocia! m to be your —— friends. The denunciation Das been so decided as te pronouce It treasonable. Whether or not it easonable, you cax best de-: termine if you read it. It ts lengthy, 2nd may’ take up too much of your time, but the address) issued by myself this day 1s comparatively short; and es it states tions sufficientl; to determine: the character of the former, it will relieve you of labor ff you will read the latter. As the address of the committee as well as that by myself, as chairman, are both from my own pea, [ sbould bear the greater part of whatever ch should attech to their publication. Still, allow me to assure you that they contain the sentiments of not less than three hundred thou- | aand of the men of Pennsylvania, and | believe of over one million of men in the central States of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York, Ohio. Indiana and Illinois. 1 will add, too, that 1 believe there is no other million of men in the whole country of more devoted patriotism and loyalt: i fia add, too, that I belfeve this million of men will, amid political changes, remain patriotic and loyal If you will read one or btn of the inclosed addresses, and if, in connection with the facts I lave stated In regard to their supporters, it will stimulate you or serve you in any degree to promote a policy on the part of the Ad tration of President Lincoin to put down the demon of abelitionism, my sole object In address- fog you this (perhaps presumptuous) Rote, shall be more than abundantly obtained At all events, rest assured that I aidress you with the profound reapect due your high personal and official char- acter.

You desire me to read them and wefgh for myself. You farther intimate 8 hope that the perusal of the pap :ra will have the effect of producing exertions OR my part to Induce the President to favor a policy to put down the demoa of Abolitionism L have — documents thus submitted to me, with a respect for the authority b which they were issued,and with a full sea dence in the sincerity of the devotion te the Untoa which, as their author, have avowed. You witl allow me to say t this nation is now engaged, not in 2 political canvass between opposing yey about questions of civil admin- istration, but ina civil war, carried on by op- pesing armies on an issue of national life or death. If the revolution prevatl there will be no ques- tions of administration leftto settle.

Now, Garibaldi does not desire this influx of volunteers into the island.

The writer thus continues: All those of the ‘1,000 of Marsala who were here have gone off as if to ‘‘join their regiment,”’ while the contagion bas spread to all the youth of the city, and last nightthey werewith difficulty Prevented breaking open the shop of Signor Dolfi —whose name as leader of the Liberal party here in 1960 your readers will remember—in order to get money to carry them tothe Roman frontier— for it is no longer concealed that this {s the route.

A letter from Turin, August %, reports the arrival of Garibaldi’s friends there, and their con- sultations with the followers of Mazzini; and then the writer reports progress: Enhistments esadede incessantly. The stir of yor men about the country is something unac cout e, and the tide is all moving southward The chiefs of the Hungarian emigration are aleo incessantly on the wing. The Government boast that they have it in their power to maintain order at allveventr, and they certainly take very ener- etic measures to shut @aribald! in a circle of iron and fire. In addition to the several regiments which have already landed in Sicily, the King’s Brigade left yesterday fcr Palermo, via Genovo. General Cugfa, the prefect of the province of Palerme, and commander-in-chief of all tne forces tn Sicily, left Turin oa Thursday last, and ought to Teach his destination to-day.

August 20, 1862 —Colonel Heffron*® of the Fiftieth Indiana regiment, proceeded to Gallatin to day, without orders, with a force of two hundred and fifty men, who had been posted ata bridge. He made « number of arrests of civ- ilians. While Colonel Heffron’s party were gone on this ezpedition the guerillas burned the bridge at Sand>raville aad captured fourteen men. Another party was attacked for the purpose of deatroytng a bridge, which was preserved by the obstinate conduct of Capt.
