Brownson.—A crowd of between siz hundred and eight hundred per- sons assembled last night, on the Avenue, in front of Willard’r, for the purpose of participa- ting In the serenade tendered to Dr. Orestes A. Brownson. The Marine Band was in attendance, and discoursed patriotic airs. Prof. Brownson ‘was intreduced by Assistant Secretary of the In- terior Usher. The Doctor com: his speech in so low a tone as scarcely to be heard, and the crowd belew filied the air with cries of ‘louder, louder’ Dr. Brownson replied that if they hed 8 little patience he would get louder, as he did not wish to commence in that wa: he should break down. He could not der this seren- ade merely in the light ofa al compliment, but as a compliment to the lovers of the country, and an evidence that the peoele were willing honor any man who manifested an attachment to the Constitution. [Applause] These are times when every man should be in earnest, and in earnest too to save the Integrity and the life of the great American nation. It is not the right of = man to feel indifferent, or to say this great crisis does not affect him. The great question before the country should come home to the bosom of every man, woman and child in Ameri- ca. The ilfe of the nation is at stake—the exis- tence of the Constitution -_ . sy ppt the Constitu’ion is gone, gone. [A by, He who is without a country ls without a home, and a hometess man ts most desolate. But not only ia the life of the nation and the existence of the conetituion at stake, but even that which made it recognized as great and glorious, and: which wns walued as the home of the free, and destined by Providence to prove whatman may be, whenever he is free to be himself.

Our su- lo ity and wealth made us we could imple our enemies in the dust. It was not so; and if we look at the questioa properly we will fing our strength is hardlyequal. Look at the southern States who are in hostility to the Union in what does the strength of a nation consist? itis not the whole population or abie- bodied men who can bear armsand fight.

Masonic PRESENTATION TO Captain CLARKE Last evening, Captain Robert Clarke, of the Ist District Regiment, was presented with a sword, sash, belt and pistol, by bis Masonic friends of hington Naval Lodge, No.4. The presenta- tlon was made at bis residence, near the Navy Yard, in the presence of the members of the Lodge and a number of friends. The presentation was made on the part of the donors by W. M. W. E. Hutchinson, who stated that as he (Captain Clarke) was soon to Jeave to join biz regiment, bis friends bad prepared the tokens which they wished to present as un evi- dence of the rezard and esteem in which he was held as a man, Mason, peti and soldier. He ‘wes one of the first to volunteer for the defense of the Union, and at a time when the city was in great danger of being captured. Then it was he oved himself to be a patriot by enrolling among Those ready to battle for their homes and firesides. In the conflict be had been wounded, ‘ut his friends were proud that it was not serious, and that he bad so soon been able to make arrange- ments to return to duty, and battle again for our country; and they were satiafied that if the Ist District Regiment should have another engage- ment with the enemy, be would be found fore- most in the ranks, and that his conduct would be such thst his friends and every lover of his coun- try would be proud of. If in the conflict you should fall, (and their prayers were that the Su e Architect of the Universe would other- wise order, for Naval Lodze would lose one of its brightest ornaments and the community one of its best citizens,) remember that your family is in the care of the brethren of the Mgstic Tie, who Wiil never let them want, but will come forward &s-one man to render such assistance as they may juire. le conclusion Mr. Hutchinson presented the gifts, remarking that they were appropriate to his ition in the army of the Union, and besought im to never lay them aside until the cursed Tebellion is crushed out and the supremacy of the Constitution is acknowledged by all the States, when Wwe can all again shout, with one voice, © Toe Ua on, now and forever, one and insep3- rable.” Captain Clarke in receiving the’gift, modestly pn Soggooae his thanks, and stated that it was true as he was reminded that of having served in the three months, and of having aleo volunteered for the wer, but he was n°t conscious of having done earning morethan hisduty. He nad ac an eye single to the interests of his country. hoped that the aword would never be disgraced, and that it would never be tarnished by a dishon- orable act. If permitted to return the donors would not have cause to reproach him. If he fell he feit that his family would find in them friends who would not see them want. The sword isa first quality regulation, heavily mounted, and bears the inscription ‘‘fo Captain Robert Clarke, ist D. C. Volunteers, from his Masonic friends of Washington Naval Lodge, No.4.” Accompanying it isa belt, sash and pis tol of the first quality M W.G.M.C. F. Stansbury, who was pres- ent, being called on, congratulated Capt. Clarke, and complimented him for bis conduct in the en- mentin which he was wounded He ad- monished him that in the sword fatth, hope and charity were represented; the hilt, faith In the Supreme Ruler; the blade, hope that the efforts to crush the rebellion may be successful; the point, charity for a fallen foe. Mr. C. F. Thomas ina few remarks addressed Capt. Clarke, stating that when the three months campaign was over the men who served were taunted as he had been with the remark that they had not smelt gunpowder; but he thanked God that some of the District inen were now smellin, powder and are proving that they are brave and gallant. He was for pecs down the rebellion at all hazards, and if necessary he was willing to go in to the service again. He advised Capt. Clarke when In battle to use the point of his sword, and let his motto be ‘‘never to take u prisoner.’’ The company were then invited into another Toom, where they partook of a bountiful collation and gradually dispersed. Captain Clarke was presented on Sunday last with a handsome Bible by the Sunday Schooi of the Esst Wasbington Baptist Church. He leaves shortly for his reziment. with Re Foxzrat or Rav. J. R. Carranter.—Yester- day afternoon, the funeral of Rev. J. R. Car- peater, chaplain of the Ist D.strict regiment, took en from the residence of the deceased on Capi- Th. The members of Federal Lodge No.1, F. A.A. M., to which lodge the deceased belonged, at- tended the funeral, together with a large number of the friends of the deceased and family. The services at the house were conducted by the Rev. Benjamin N Brown, of Waugh Chapel, who deilvered an nifecting funeral address, in which he «poke of M: Carpenter as one who was true to his Sod and to bis country, adding that he knew not how one could be true to hisGod and “not to his country The noble pampis afforded by the Christian- |-Iike and patriotic life of the deceased was dwelt upon; and the effecting death scene, marked by nation and exulting hope, was depicted in terms that drew tears to many eyes. Upon the conclusion of the exercises at the house, the afflicted family and friends took a last look at the features of the dead, which wore the Pleasant, tranquil smile of life, and the funeral was formed, and proceeded to Glenwood , where the remains were consigned to earth with the usual impressive ceremonies of the Masonic order. 1 Potice.—The Third Werd patrolmen reported y—Hillery Smith, fighting chickens Sun- ; fined $2 John T.

M. FROM THE FRONT. ‘We apprehend that there bas been no telegraph- ic communication with the front since the rebel raid upon Manassus and Bristow—of which we publish an account elsewhere this afternoon. Up to that hour—eigkt or nine p.m_ yesterdsy—there had been no more fighting across the Rappahan- nock ; nor, as far as we can learn, had the rebels showa themselves in force about there We therefore adhere to the opinion expressed yesterday that they have already made off (for the most part) for Gordonsville, leaving Col. Fitz- hugh Lee’s small cavalry force to worry and annoy uson our right flank (#8 he certainly is doing) aud thus d-lay pursuit as long as possible We reject the theery that the Rebels bave sent a considerable force in the Valley again ; as todo so, their Generals know well, would be to insur its immediate destruction. They know, if but from the publicationsin the New York newspa- pers, that the army of the Potomac is now where it can conveniently operate in conjunction with the army of Virginia. They know, too, that if they lose Gordonsville, Richmond falls of its own weight very shortly afterwards ; and that they must keep all their strength in this region to- gether, for its defence. While raids upon our flank and rear, like those of Colony] Lee, annoy us beyond bearing, they effect nothing whatever in shaping the general result of a campaign. We will become more watchful of such matters, doubtless, and thus be improved by them. P S—Ere going to press with to-day’s second edition of the Star, we learn that persons ar- riving in the course of the day from the vicinity of Fairfax, represent that much artillery fring was heard early this mcrning in the direction of Manassas, and indeed up to the hour they started for Washington, by rail. if this be true, Lee, or whoever commands the marauding rebels, felt himself strong enough to remain about Manassas until daybreak, when Sturgis probably came upon him and engaged him. We, however, receive this information with many grains of allowance, adhering to the theory that such rebel raids are being ventared only with aamall force, so constituted as to do as much damage by night as possible, and prepared to run swiftly for hiding places ere effective pursuit can be essayed. Among the astonishing stories told to-day in connection with this affair, is one saying that last night five trains of our troops going up to punish the maiauders, were stopped on the road end made prisoners. There is nothing, however, to confirm that or aught else onthe subject, except what isembraced in our statement above con- cerning it. ANOTHER IMPUDENT EXPLOIT OF LEE’ _ CAVALRY. A SUCCESSFUL RAID UPON MANASSAS JUNCTION AND BRISTOW STATION. Se eS THE RAILROAD GUARD OVERPOWERED AND ARTILLERY SEIZED AND TURNED UPON OUR MEN. Sse FOUR TRAINS OF EMPTY CARS DE- STROYED. —_-—___ A DISGRACEFUL AFFAIR ALTOGETHER. —_——_o———— A rebel raid, similar to that made oa Friday night last at Catlett’s Station, was successfully accomplished last night, not only at Bristow, but also at Manassas Station! The attacking force, variously estimated at from 500 to 2,000 cavalry, issupposed to have been a portion of Col. Fitzhugh Lee’s force that made the raid on Friday night, referred to above. From all we can learn of the facts (and most of the information on the subject that bad reached ‘Washington up to noon to-day, comes through “‘skedaddling’’ Federal soldiers,who, running on the first alarm, were brought up all standing near Centerville by Federal pickets.) the first assault ‘was made upon cars on the railroad at Bristow, four miles out beyond Manassas. A train was fired into there, with what resulting damage we know not. The Federal guard at Manassas is said to have consisted of the 12th Pennsylvania cavairy, (very green troops,) two companies of infantry, and a battery of artillery. The skedaddling men bringing the news to Centreville and Fairfax were of the cavalry, and represent that most of the infantry and artiliery were captured, and the latter turned immediately against us in the skirmish or affair. it appears that the Federal wazon trains there at the time had sufficient warning to enable them to move back to Centerville, without loss. Four trains of empty cars on the sideling at Manassas are under. stood to have fallen {nto the hands of this ma- rauding party. ; The Bull Run bridge (represented an hour ago to have been brrned also) is safe—we know posi- tively. As soon as information of this affair reached here last night, from Fairfax Station, a consider- able force was dispatched by rail, under General Sturgis, to punish the daring marauders. We take it for granted that the rebels as much of the railroad and telegraph at Manasses as possible, though they could not do more such damage there, we apprehend, than can be recti- fied by our construction corps at hand in perhaps twenty-four hours. The interruption of tele- gtaphic communication of course prevents up to this hour a better knowledge here of the details of this most disgraceful affair. From all we know of it so far, we feel sure that instead of recrossing the Rappahannock on Saturday, Col. Fitzhugh Lee’s force hurried into the mountains back of Warrenton, from whence he kad but to dash down twenty or twenty-five miles upon Bristow and Manassas. We take it for granted that he did not remain at Manassas until Sturgis arrived there, but again made off for the fastnesses in his rear. By this time a sufficient force of cavalry has doubtless been sent afer him by Gen. Pope. They will hardly catch him, however, if he chooses to go over the ridge at Front Royal, and there disperse his force, to come tegetber again somewhere in the valley. It is undeniably true that the success of these rebel raids grow out of the gross incompeteney and inattention to their duties of our officers in charge of our railroad, and other similar guards. It is high time that examples, by shooting on the sen- tence of drum head courts martial, had been made of some of those responsible for these oc currences, so well calculated to make our armies justly the derision of the world. The country will no longer stand neglect on the part of our military authorities to force attention on the part of their subordinates to the plainest rules of mili- tary duty end disc!pline—rules which if longer neglected will insure our ultimate defeat in this war, we care not how many men we put in the field, nor how much money we spend for war purposes.
