Additio: Particulars of the Ang] rican Difficuity with the Japane: San Fraxcisco, Sept. 7.—By further ac- counts it appears that the Japanese govern- ment had attempted to avoid war with foreign- ere, baying not only paid all the indemnity de- munded by England, but also made a satisfac- ary apology; but this displeased the Damios, and much discontent existed throughout the ceuntry. A Damio, who owns territory along the Strait of Sirnouski, in the province of Nas goti, recklessly fired from his forts upon ships of all nationalities that passed. He had also two steamers fitted up as war vessels, with heavy gune, which aided the forts in the at- tack. ‘hese are the veseels supposed to have been destroyed by the Wyoming. At the latest dates a large British fleet was at Kanagawa, onder Admiral Keeper, and was about to sail tor the Strait of Sirnouski. It is turther stated that the Prince of Nagoti does not care for reverses, as he has the assur- ance thst nearly all the Damios will jin him In active hostilities. From New Orleans. NEw York, Sept. 11.—The steamer Evening Star trom New Orieans on the 5th, arrived at 1 o'clock. She was detained nine hours by Gen. Banks to carry diepatches.

Money is easy. Atlantic currency and ex- change range at from 25427 premium for gold in New York; legal tenders, 8; sterling ex- change unchanged. Since the sailing of the last cteamer there has been a fair cflering for trade, bat importers have done little.

Reported Resignation of Gen. Burnside. Nw York, Sept. 11—A special dispatch to the Tribune, from Cincinnati, says Gen. Burn- side upon completing the redemption of East Teinersee, tendered his resignation to the War Department by telegraph. It is suppozed he contemplated it for some time in consequence of constant political perplexities that beset him in the administration of his department through the repudiation of certam of his measures by the Government, but did not take the step till he could leave the service without discredit to himeelf, after expelling the last armed rebel from his department. The headquarters of the Army of the Cum- berland is establiched at Chattanooga. From Europe. Carr Race, Sept. 11.—The City of Manches- ter bas arrived here. There are again vague reports that the French Cabinet debated the ex- pediency of recognizing the South. There was no final decision.

New York, Sept. 10.—The Bermuda papers of the 2d have been received. The rebel steamer Engineer, from Wilming- ton, N. C., with 400 bales of cotton, arrived at St. George on the 15th ult. SUPPRESSION OF A NEWSPAPER AND THE Epitor SExT poure any yesterday morn- ing, the attention of Maj. Gen. Schenck was called to the publication in the Baltimore Re- publican and Argus of a piece of poetry called the ‘Southern Cross.” This production, which breathed astrong southern spirit, had been pre- viously published here in musical sheets and suppressed, but notwithstanding the propri- elors of the Argus permitted it to reappear in their paper. An order was addressed without delay to Capt. French, of the Provost Marshal’s guard, (Col. Fish being sick,) to proceed forth- ‘with and arrest the publizhers and editor, viz: Beale H. Richardson, Frank A. Richardson, rf Tietors, and Stephen J. Joice, principal editor. The two last mentioned were arrested about iA o'clock at the publication office, corner of altimore and Gay streets, and the senior partner at his resjdence, Saratoga street. They were conveyed Under guard to the quarters of Col. Fish, corner of Eutaw and Camden streets, with etrict orders not to be allowed to commu. nicate with any person whatever. Also, to eend them under guard beyond the Federal lines South, by way of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, wiih the understanding that the shall notreturn during the war. The werd- ing of the order precluded them from receiv- ing a change of clothing, an interview with the memt of their tamilies, or assistance of any kind, and at the hour specified they were rapidly on their way to Dixie. Whilst in confinement, however, several friends obiained audience with the General, and he permitted the parties to have an inter- view with their wives and be supplied with a reasonable aiount of money. . Beale H. Richardson is about sixty years of age, has publisi:ed the Republican and Argus for about twenty years, and was ar appraiser of the Custom House under the Administration of President Buchanan. His son Frank Rich- ardson suceeeded to the chief proprietorship of the paper atout four years since, and is wealihy,and Mr. Jeice has been editing the paper avout thesame lengthof time. Forsome time past they have been cautioned by Union men of this city about publishing articles in their pap: r in opposition to the Government.— imore American, 12th. THY ACCIDENT ON THE PHILADELPHIA RAIL- RoaD.— Mails and trains from the North and East were detained yesterday on account of an acvident which ocenrred on the Philadel- plia Railroad, near Wilmington. The acci- dent occurred at the draw-bridge over Bran- cywine cr-ek. On Thursday night a peach train for Phil- adi lphia w4s going up, And just before reach. ing the bridge on the south side is ashort carve, where it is exp. cted that all ihe engineers will go at ro rlow arate of speed as to be able to stop their trains when tue draw happens to be open. The draw was open on Thursday night, but the speed of the tram wasso great that it could not be entirely checked, and the locomo. tive fell over and bong upon the bridge, in which position it remained up to late yester- day aiternoon. Passengers going North and South were transfeyred across the crerk to different trains, but itis expected that all the obstrnetions will be removed to-day, and the road be again in workicg order The officers of the road think that if the engineer had exercised proper care the accident would have beeu avoided, as the draw is likely to be off at any hour of the night when yessele are passing.

EW INVASION PROJECT URGED UPON LEE. REBEL NEWS FROM CHARLESTON. ee Southern papers of a late date have been re- ceived, and from them we gather the following items of interest: The Richmond Enquirer of the 7th urges Lee to & new invasion of Pennsylvania, on the gtound that such an invasion would aid the liemocratic party. The Enquirer says that ‘the success of the northerndemocratic ‘parly would be no longer doubdiful should Gen. Lee once more ad- vance on Meade. Parties in the United States are £0 bearly balanced that the least advantage thrown in 1avor of one will insure its success.” At is aigued that Lee by euch a move could give such power to the Democratic party as to secure them the speakership; whereas, if ho re- mains quiet on the Rappahannock, the Repub- lican party can claim that the war has ecnducted successfully. «*He muy so move and direct his arm: ,” says the Enquirer, “as to produce political results which, in their bearing upon this war, will prove more effectual than the bloodiest victories. Let him drive Meade into Washington and he will again raise the spirits of the Democrats, confirm their timid and give confidence to their wavering. He wil! embolden the Peace party should he again cross the F’otomac, for he will show the people ot Pennsylvania how little security they have from Lincoln for the protection of their homes.” * * * ” « ‘Let the great and important fact be con- stantly kept in tangible and threatening aspect before the people of Pennsylvania, that, not- withstanding they have opened the Mississip- iand are besieging Charleston and thr aten- ing East Tennessee, and Georgiaand Alabama —that, notwithsianding all this, Pennsy]vania is not exfe trom invasion, and Washingiou City is wgain beleaguered in this third year of the war. The road to peace lies through Pennsylvania via Washington.” THE NEXT GREAT BATTLE. The Alanta Appeal of Wednesday says :— From preeent apprarances, as indicated by the Movements of the enemy, as well as ourown army, the next great batiie of the war—the bat- Ue upon the issue of which hangs, a great measure, the tate of the Gulf States —will prob- ably come off during the next month some- where in East Tennessee. The possession of that cection of country, and the control of the railroad that traverses it, connecting the South- west with the capital of the Confederacy, is now undoubtedly the leading aim of the enemy. Such a success on his part would prove a moat damaging, if not an irreparable blow tous It would, in a great measure, blast the hepes and crush the spirits of our people, to buoy up aud sustain which ought now to be the paramonnt object of those who hold the management of publitc affaiis in their hands. The Richmond Whig of September 4th, in a labored article, advises concentration and massing of the Confederate forces; and not un- dertake to defend eyery approach of their vast | dcmain. In the scattering of their forces the Whig attributes the many disasters that have recently befalien the rebel arms. Concentra- tion 1s necessary, and then “when too weak to fight we can retreat, and by having all our forces in two grand corps our skilltul generals can £0 maneuver them as to thwart a foe vast- ly superior. The day of defeat will have passed away when our veteran armies are burled in solid masses against the foe.” The Savannah News of ‘September 2d, no- ticing the existence of submissionists among them, says that these submissionists are most- ly men between forty-five and fifty years ot age, who fear they will yet be called into the army. The Atlanta Confederacy eays of the evac- uation of Knoxville, Tennessee: A gentleman just from London informs us that Knoxville was evacuated on Thursday last. All the stores were brought away, and all the Confederate troops, except Goode's bat- talicn of cayairy, are on this side of the Ten- neseee. He reports that the panic among the people is said to be great; everybody is removing trom Knoxville and vicinity, and crossing the river. The last train from Knoxville arrived yester- day. When it left Goode’s cavalry was re- ported skirmishing with the enemy. _As was neceesary, after the evacuation of Knoxville, Cumberland Gap has also been evacuated. It is believed that our forces will be able to defeat Rosecrans whenever he gives battle. The Charleston Courier, of Sept. Ist, treating upon «The Progress of the Siege of Charles- ton,” pays a compliment to our brave tars of the iron-clads, saying: “It cannot be denied that the Yankee captains fought their vessels witb great gallantry. In the foremost Monitor the Yankee Captain was descried on the turret, which jt he did not leave while the fight lasted. At the same time. aman wasseen atthe bow of the boat very coolly engaged in casting the lead. It is he- uered, however, that this brave fellow was hit atlast.”” Bu: . HEADQUARTERS Der’r OF THE Missovai, St. Louis, Sept. 8.—Official reports received et these Headquarters from Major General Blunt, and dated at Perryville, Choctaw Nation, Au- jt 27th, 1863, state that on the 22d ult, Gen. : soa srseee the arene river with his force for the purpose of attacking Steele, who who had concentrated the forces under Oabell, Cooper, and Stand Waite, numbering nine thousand, and posted on the south side of the Canadian river, sixty miles from Fort Hiunt. After a march of sixty miles in forty-eight hours, he came up tothe point where the enemy had been encamped, and learned that they had divided their forces and commenced to retreat. On the 25th ult., General Biunt learned from. hisscouts hreaideettegent at tccllndeeb dryer twenty miles eouth, on the Texas road, he immediately moved in pursuit. About 100'cloek the same day the advance guard meta. compas? of Choctawe, who had been sent out to wate! General Blunt's movements, and killed four, taking their Captain prisoner, whe informed General Blunt that they belo: to anew regi- ment that had arrived from Red river, and were eight hundred strong. About § o’clock p. m., the advance came upon the town of Perry- ville, which is apres f surrounded with timber, when they were upon from two mountain howitzers charged with canister, wounding four. General Blunt dismounted the 6th Kan- eas and advanced through the timber to within three hundred yards of the barricades erected by the enemy, when a dozen shells from oar howitzers made them leave in haste. On entering the town, Gen. Blunt was in- formed that the force was a strong rear guard of the enemy, who were endeavoring to remove and destroy their commissary stores. Perryville was @ regalar military post, and an important depot, being the only point be- tween Boggy Depotand North Fork Town. As neariy every building contained government stores, Gen. Blunt directed the burning of the whole place. Quite alargeamonuntof clothing was captured and destroyed at their depot at North Fork Town. | ADDRESS OF SENATOR SuMNER.—The Hon.
