John Quincy Adams, Si rt member, argued that if a nation oppiso i the progress of civilisation, refused to have frietdly jn'ercunrae and commercial dealing wild O'ber conn trira, iniiated upon living by itself, bnt np within tbe enclosure of aa exclusive o'flsbnMS, it was right to compel such a beuight-d and sulky community to Join the rest of the work), aud especially the more intelligent portions thereof, in tbe interchange of civilities and commodi'ies. The reasoning, (and the logic waa close knit as well as original) waa based upon tho assumption that the differences in the climates and productions of various regions, and other facts, plainly indicated that the completes! subduing cf tbe earth and tbe highest prosperity of mankind, were to be secured by contributions from all quarters to common stock of wealtn end iblviiigence a circulating fund, as it were for the benefit of the whole, made np, by a sab scription from each of the parts of that which was peculiar to itself. No people were at liberty to build Chinese walla, to stop the divinely ordained advancement of the human race by a pig-bead obstinacy, and to aeclnde themselves from outside barbarians or Christians.

Whatever may be thought of this view of main ai obligations among independent nations, and tbe propriety of demanding tbeir recognition where thy are perversely repudiated, it clearly la not a mpetent for any member of a given political family to domineer over the other members, or, failing in thin, to set np a separate estaniiah-meat, by stealing section of the pnblic domain and a portion of the public treasure, violating the compact it solemnly swore to observe, making ita capricious will and local interests to stand, instead of reason and law, not only for itself, bat for nil its ron-pauionslike wise. Whenever this is attempted, the majority or rather the Government, repn seating the whole body, end supported by the majority has an undoubted right, nay more, is solemnly bound to nse coercion to compel it refractory and seditions subjects to return to their allegiance. The questions, from what inimical motives it Is cssy to perceive, are constantly asked abroad aud still whispered occasionally by a very ew aF( homo. Why not tot cession have its way and establish its Confederacy Why not let it enjoy Irs precious system of slavery and aristocracy with JCing Cotton for its monarch Why attempt to kinder its departure, and when it resorts to violence why employ force to conquer it? Is not this entering into contest simply to decide who shall rule Is not this fighting for dominion Certainly it is, if by fighting for dominion is to be understood fighting to maintain the supremacy of the rightful authority of the rightful Govern meat ever tbe whole land. The object of the war is to subdue rebellion and subjugate rebels.

Tne Federal armies are in tbe field to coerce insurgent! and prevent them from accomplishing their conspiracy. And why? In the first place became, ns has been eoncln-aively urged over and over again, tor a nation to consent that a fairly and legally oat-voted minority, aono of whoso rights havs been violated, may accede ft ora its rale and destroy its unity, is to deny that it is or over has been a nation at a 1, or had any sovereignty whatever. Ia the second place, the Government ia exercising force to vindicate its supremacy throughout the land tor possibly still stronger lessons. It is called upon by tbe wiHj of its free and loyal constituency to oppose and annihilate an exclusiveness tint would not only destroy the greatness nod glory of a mighty republic by tbe assertion of principles the tendency of which would be to split it into feeble and insignificant fragments, bnt an exclusiveness which alao seeks to introduce among tho communities of Christendom a community opposed to tho essential ideas of tho civilisation of tho ago vis end progress. Hero Is a consideration not sufficiently pondered.

Have wo a right in this 19th century, to allow the erection, within our own borders, on territory stolen from onr own control, of a nation or government with chattel slavery and all tba consequences of chattel slavery tor its foundation and for tba shaping of its entire policy domestic snd foreign This question has nothing to do with chattel slavery aa the creature of local law, and as a fotm of labor. It rotors only to the slave power aa distinctively political power. This as every body knows and ns it does not protend to concesl, is an aristocratic, despotic, thoroughly anti democratic power, compelled, in order to maintain its existence, to deny every principle that creates snd fosters free principles, or respects the people as sovereign and capable of selfvnio. Can such a Power bo allowed to become one of the political powers of the earth? Are we not bound to resist its usurpation almost if not quite as roach out of regard to tho worlds best growth as ont of regard to our own Integrity as a repub1 io? If tbe celebrated hi an roe doctrine is sound doctrine and ever to have an npplicar tioa, ia it not evidently applicable to the existing exigency among ourselves? What foreign monarchy or autocracy is there, were it to get foothold on this Continent or become our neighbor, that we Id be more antagonistic or hostile to republican institutions, than the Southern Confederacy, as it has exhibited its spirit and purpose? The rhonghtfril reply to that inquiry, will reconcile ns to coercion. Lxttek riov WABHitroTOtr.

Onr correspondent, writing under date of August 26tb, says: An illustration of the uncertainties of war ean he fonnd in the fact that onr forces occupied Warrenton on a certain morning; at noon the rebel General and staff dinod at the hotel, aud at night Gen. Banks aud staff aupped there, the names of rebels and Unionists appearing together on tbe hotel register. Close work that. I cant ay who tbe bed were made for. A visit to Alexandria and vicinity today fur-nishfcd several facta and proved of geaeral interest.

The sudden assemv ing of so 1-irge a force there, led to scenes of drunkenness aud confusion, uud sundry fights occurred between tho soldiers and negroes, in which some of tho firmer were badly beaten and one or two of the IiMf killed. The authorities ordered all the pi where liq-lir coulJ he obtained dosed, and sue dlura tic imply with this order brought visit from thi guard and the summary deswuctiou of th-t liq tor Today tbe town was therefore q-ifot, altiough ore ose of sach lattice cuna to mr nuicn Aroui.d Alexandria, the fields are ctverad with tents, and the clonds of dust along the roads Da. token the movero-nt of troops.

Under this title the Washington National Intelligencer gives what may be considered seat-official exolanation of the course of the verument in relation to the confiscation law. We give tne article ia fall It is not necessary to say for tha information of intelligent readers that the issue wuicu it made against the President by thou who clamor for a proa-lamarion declaring freedom to tbe slaves of rebels, as though the President were eva-iing a duty ei-joiued by tbe confiscation law.

is ooa which proceeds on a false assumption. Tne only proclamation enjoined by that law has been already issued, and if tho Congress ha-1 desired i be President to issue an exhortation' to the negroes of the 8outh ns well as to wnite rebels in arms we may be as-ured that its members would not have been restrained by any considerations of modesty from saying so. Tne section relating to slaves of rebels as follows, aud executes itself, without requiring any proclamation to give it force or validity gxo. t. And be it farther enacted.

That ail slaves of persons who shall hereafter be rugs god in rebellion at siust the Government of the United States, or who shall in any way give aid or comfort thereto, escaping fiom such persons aud taking refuge wirbfn the lines of the army aud all slaves captured from such persons, or dental by them and coming uttder the control of the Government -if the United Srates; ai.d all slavea of such jieraous found or being within sny place occupied by rebel force, and afterward occupied by the forces of the Uuite-i States, shall be deemed captives ol war, and shall he forever ire of their ten it ude, and not again held as slave. The ihtiuuaikin persistently reiterated in soms quarters that tbe President will not enforce too cut tiscation-emaocipatioQ bill ha not the slightest ioui daticn, far us we can du-rover. There ia every reason to believe that it is hi purpose to sxicuie Ibis law, and ail other laws, to the exteot of his ability, nud in every section of tbe counter that he can reach by tbe judicial and military power of the nation. (National luteil-gencer. The Rebel Raid ox Haxassas.

Thu Philadelphia Inquirer gives the following narrative of the raid nn Manassas, of which short account appeared in tha morning journals: Alxxaxduia, 1S42. Thera was an important rebel raid on Uiauot Ijsi night, tbe deraila of which I give you. having jurt arrived fiom near that locaii'y, as cor-redly as Me excitement of tbe hour will permit. The regular train, which should have arrived here last night at ten oclock, was attacked by about tour hundred of Stuarts Cavalry, under command of Lee, at Brisow, a place some jar miles ntd half west of Manatsa. Tbe first intimation the passengers had of tha approaching danger, waa a sudden shock, occasioned by the engine running into pile uf ties placed upon the track.

Fortunately the machine was going at a high rate of speed, end the obstruction was removed without throwing the train from tbe track. Tbe rebel cavalry had undoubtedly concluded upon no snch result, for they were drawn np in lina on each side of the track. Tne moment, however, tbey discovered that their design had been frustrated, they fired upon the tnun, killing one man on top of a car and slightly wounding several inside. The engineer palled oat the throttle of his engine, and the train was rapidly driven np to Manassas, thence to Boll Ran bridge, about four miles east of Manassas, where it encountered a train standing on the track, loaded with soldiers, completely demolishing five freight cars and piling tbe broken timbers np into one mass. Three men are reported killed and several severely wounded.

The conductor and the engineer of tne train from Manassas were badly injured, and the locomotive was somewhat damaged. Tbe rebel cavalry, after firing, apparently were reinforced, for they at once rode on to Menas sas, reaching there about nine o'clock, between two and three thousand strong. At Manassas they encountered the 11th New Tork Battery, which was evidently taken by surprise, although it is aid sufficient warning had been given of the approach of the rebels to enable tha men In charge to move off several government trains loaded with stores. Tha New Tork soldiers, although thrown into great confusion by the sudden dash of the rebel cavalry, fought es bravely as men could. They, at the first onset, lost four of their eight gnus.

It was the first time they had been under fire, and so completely were they taken by surprise, tbat the officer in command, supposing the robel cavalry to be Union troops, called to them not to press him too hard, or he would not be able to nse his pieces. The rebels, thinking they had an easy thing, when within a tow yards of the guns commenced yelling like demons, and rushed upon the battery. Several soldiers were sabred at their guas. Tuoe who ronld fought nobly, bat with what result is not definitely known. Most of them, however, it is believed, were killed or taken priaoners.

At the time of the entry of the rebels into inseu There were but three or four companies of infauiry tbat bad accidentally been left there by a train that went np a few honrs before. The rebels, getting possession of the place, commenced the promiscuous destruction of everything tbat come within their reach. Tney tore no tbe track, smashed the car, cut the telegraph wires, destroyed several buildings and a couaider-able amount of government scores. Before arriving at Manas-ms, is believed they Mew np the Broad Ran Bridge, ns light was seen end an exp'oeion heard ia tb it direcctoa. It is also thought they des'royed considerable of tbe track.

This morning at eight o'clock heavy cannonading was beard at Miaouas, aad it is supposed Gen. Pope has attacked the rebels iu front and renr. Probably mare bold and desperate raid his not occurred during tha history of any war. Tast it was a raid and nothing else is evident from tha fact that it w- uld have been impossible for ay considerable force to hare got in the rear of Gen. Popra army.

That excitable people will magnify this affair into one of greet importance there cau be uo doubt, bnt to those who know, ns well as your orrespondent does, the immense military power of onr government, and tbe doom that is surely awaiting tbe rebel, this little trick of the rebels will seem of no consequence.

Horace Parnell Tuttle, of the Harvard College Observatory, tha well known discoverer of several planets, comets, and other celestial phenomena, yesterday placed hie name on the enlistment roll of the Fourth Hawaiian in thi city. Motive of patriotism have induced him to quit the rabhine and peaceful occupation of na astronomer, in the security of yonder watch tower in the sUea, and land hi aid to crush the rebellion, refusing even a flattering offer. Just made him, to join the National Observatory at Washington. IIs ia considered the best rifle shot in this Commonwealth.

The Fourth Battalion has on its rolls some of the best educated and most estimable young men in this city Ticinity.

The object of the latter ie to distract tha attention of onr generals from the main object of tbeir campaign, and do as much mischief as they can.

From the nature of the war in Virginia, we might have expected inch occurrences aa we today hare the mortification to record. The Wan. War begets rumors, bat never was more prolific tbn nt present.
