Horace Grrcley has written a letter lo tho I'rvsldent, urging him to a more prompt n fiireemrnt of the confiscation law. The Presi dent Im. replied in a charactcrittla letter, in whUhhet): ' My paramount oblrct in this atriiepto 1 to mu- iIh Union, unit not to save or distruy tuv y. If I could Jivi- I lie Unl'in wltho'tl frcclns; any slave-, I would do it : and Ifi-nnld flBk suigV BgssatRr trp it by fnx'hig all thesUves.

I sli.ll try to correct errors lxiiair tiny are shown to lie errors, and shill adipt new view so ft as Ihry appear to be true views." The iilHivcenunclalis the true doctrine. The object of this war Is not to overthrow slavery , nor to preserve it i but It Is waged on the part of I lie (Jomnmcnt (or a higher and no bler purpose the preservation of the Ameri can Union, Tim President has gtrtnso many coniinclng proofs thut tho war on the part of the Umrrinmnl is waged fr the s'e purpose of vindicating tho general authority of the National Constitution, that the wu) Curing man, though a fmil, ought to undertaiid its purposes and objects. Hut there is a cIujs or pcrsi'iis, who. having eyes, see not ears, und hear not, nor ui.dcr.tund the platu logic of n cuts, If the dislructlon of slavery In one or all of the rebellious Slates Is neee-sary f.ir Ihe pre seriatinn of the Union, la the fiat go forth. The Hrbels, having violated the national com picl, cannot usk for tho rnforccinent of the provisions In that compact made in their favor and for their Ik nidi. Is there a single man In the loyal North who, if the allernatlru was presented to him of choosing between the con tlnuanco of the Union or the destruction of slaiery, would havo any hesitancy In his choice? If there Is, he Is not badly wanted there his proper place is In Jiff. Davis' army, Liixt. Muxr.s'n Kmiwuxt Hoao. We see by a ' card, ' publUhed in Ihe Washington ( . T.)

The Dmotrat learns that on Tbursdsy last Itosecrani left Corinth, with en army of thlsly on forty thousand men, and proceeded southward toward Llnttown, Ok tibbrha county, one -hundred and four miles northeast of Jackson, where about flfesn thousand rebel wire lying, under Armstrong. Price 1 at Tupelo, with twenty-five thoU'and men. The probability Is that, on being threat fried, Price and Armstrong will combine and give Rose crans battle. The withdrawal of the forces under Itosecrans will not leavo Corinth exposed, as enough remain for nil emergencies. New York, 2lh. I he 7Vi6tinti corres pondence says t In the rebel attack on Cettel 'g Station, four thousand dollnrs'belooglng to the Quartermaster of the Department were taken. A Captain In the Purnell Legion, who was lying hid In n house near the railroad track, heard Qenrral Stewart give positive orders to spare McDowell's baggage train, but to seize Pope's and destroy whatever was not of pub lic' Importance. The order was implicitly obeyed, although McDowell's wagous were close at hand. The Fredericksburg correspondence of tho TYitmif dated Sunday. 24th, says t Musketry flclng was heard this morning. A contraband who came In report that our troops were whipping the rebels, and that we had captured thlrtren gun. A caralry Lieutenant who came in last night confirms the report, and says sixteen gun were captured, lie also says that when Stonewall Jackson's forces reached Dennett's ford, eighteen or twenty miles from here, a part of McDowell's forces were on the south bank of the river. They secreted tlirmtcKr under cover of the woods. Jackson's forces pncd them and attempted to furd the rlfcr. While making this attempt Pope's troops opened n destructive lire, nnd nt the same time McDowell's men threw them selves In the rear of the enemy, thus brlnulng thcmclves between two fires. The officers say that of this iortlon of Jackson's forces they couldn't say how many were annihilated, but that the river was rrd with rtlnl blood. This story Is gtvm for what It Is worth. It Is bclievrd In rrtdrrttksbtirg. It Is also belli veil that the fighting Is going on still. Our pick ets In front ol Fmlcrliksbiirg were doubted within the last two day.
