Anger. --This passion produces about as much mischief to the human race as any other of which we are cognizant. Spenser has well said, "full many mischiefs follow cruel wrath." Anger is, however, like an overloaded gun, it produces effects of a levelling nature at either end. Except bad whiskey, which, by the way, is one of the main causes of wrath, it is the most prolific source of trouble. As the poet says: "There is not in nature,! A thing that makes a man so deform'd, so beastly, As doth intemperate anger." It was the latter description of the article that induced Charles H. Jenkins to assault, pound, ill-treat and bang Joseph Clayton in a violent manner; and as the latter individual declares, much to his personal discomfit. Had not anger been about, the irate Jenkins had not put himself in peril of the law by damaging Clayton's countenance. Had he been quiescent, the police would not have sought an occasion to make his acquaintance and bring him before the May

into the City Jail for safe-keeping, in default of $200 bail till the next Grand Jury term of the Hustings Court. Anger incited Edward Vaerge to make a personal demonstration of a warlike nature against the bodies of Leon Friedman and his better half. The law incited the Mayor to demand surety for a non-repetition of the offence, and failing, the defendant went down with Jenkins. Anger incited Andrew Ford to the performance of sundry movements of his digits before the nose of William McParr. It also caused him to utter certain words construed by "Mo. " into potential threats. The latter fearing an attack on his anatomy, solicited the interference of the police, who soon crossed the Ford whose turbulence had caused him so much uneasiness. The Mayor sent down the third victim of anger in default of $150 surety for his good behavior. The cultivation of a meek and forgiving disposition affords such a fine opportunity for the display of human ingenuity, that it is to be regr

Accidentally, the Intelligencer spoke in terms of guarded approval of the conduct of the thus far. We clip the following ex from the Fortress Monroe correspondence of the New York Tribune, as an evidence of the atrocious manner in which the really do behave: outrages committed by our soldiers on property, and not unfrequently on the also, of Virginians conceived to be Secessionists, are a disgrace to our army. A proper degree of discipline would insure the shooting of platoons of scoundrels, not all privates, who seem to have imbibed the idea that they came here to pillage and destroy.--The outrages that I could detail are calculated to cause average decent man to blush. Around has been inflicted that never will healed long as recollection remains. It is in the hope that some good may be done thereby that make this disgraceful confes

mpt for Sawyer's gun. They also state that Yorktown is being made a stronghold. From Western Maryland. Hagerstown, June 21. --Intelligence reached here to-day, indicating that Gov. Wise has diverged from his line of attack upon General McClellan's column, and gone by way of Staunton to Lewisburg, in Greenbrier county, with 4,000 men, to repel the expedition, which is said to have gone up the Great Kanawha. The Secession forces at Romney have been overrated. It does not exceed the Northwestern Virginia Railroad to Clarksburg and Grafton. Five hundred cavalry horses were also shipped in the same direction over the same route the latter part of 1st week, exclusive of the dragoons and artillery which accompanied Maj.Gen. McClellan. The fleet was evidently destined for the Kanawha country, but the evacuation of Harper's Ferry and other events rendered a change of programme desirable. There was a great excitement about the Baltimore and Ohio railroad deploy yesterd

nnon. Gen. Johnston is fortifying Winchester. A battery is being raised on a wooded hill overlooking the fair grounds. When he evacuated Harper's Ferry the whole column went to Charleston, thence to Bunker's Hill, where, when on sunday Gen. Patterson's column crossed the river, his whole force drew up in line of battle to receive the expected attack. Thence the larger portion returned to Winchester, and Jackson's 8,000 marched towards the Potomac. Johnston's force at Winchester cannot euse where the Secession pickets were stationed, opposite to Williamsport. The guard were at supply and left their food unfinished. They made excellent time towards the adjoining woods. The plan of the Confederates is said to be to draw Gen. Patterson's column into Virginia, and then retreat, but fighting at all points where there is a chance of successful resistance, and carry on a system of guerilla warfare. A collision between the two columns cannot long be prevented. War move
st Peterson was mortally wounded. Both are now at the Hyspia Hospital here. Six others were slightly wounded. Capt. Braine at once opened fire upon the Confederates with shell and canister, killing and wounding, he thinks, a large number of them. The companies fled, and the house was completely demolished. The Quaker City also had a short engagement this morning with a large number of dragoons while cruising in Lynn Haven bay near Cape Henry. Commander Carr picket up a man named Lynch, a refugee from Norfolk, who represented that the master plummer of the Navy-Yard was ashore, and wished to be taken off. An armed boat sent for the purpose was fired upon when near the shore mortally wounding James Lloyd, seaman, of Charlestown, Mass. A few 32-pound shells dispersed the attacking party behind the sand-hills. Lloyd died this afternoon. Adolph Vincinnes, of Col. Duryea's regiment, died yesterday of a wound received at Great Bethel.
