ld, gentlemen, start a new paper at once, at some eligible point, and urge all these considerations, and more upon the minds of the loyal hearted men of the country, but for two good and sufficient reasons First, I should he arrested by the United States authorities for stating facts, opposing follies, and declaring the honest convictions of my mind. And next, such is the rapid advance of the rebel forces that I should expect them to crush out my paper, as they did in Tennessee on the 25th of October last. I may be imprisoned for writing this article. I am not concerned about that. I suffered imprisonment, and the confiscation of all I had, on the other side of the line, for adhering to the truth, and I am ready to go to prison here for the same offence. If this rebellion is not put down I have nothing to live for, and would as soon die in prison as elsewhere.

but regard it as a sign that the Administration regards the contest as hopeless, and has nothing to offer to restore the confidence of the people but a repetition of their sacrifices on a scale of monstrous proportions. Another letter from Brownlow. The traitor Brownlow has published another letter in the Northern papers, calling on the loyal Governors to meet at some point and adopt resolutions urging the United States Government to draft 500,000 more men, calling upon the President tSabbath by preaching in the open air to the Philadelphia Corn Exchange regiment, a noble set of men, equipped by a noble band of patriots. I improve this Sabbath (September th) by writing this address to the Governors of the loyal States. W. G. Brownlow The North to be Conquered. St. Catherine's, C.

ther it was best or not to come on, I met with an old friend, a member of the First Maryland Home Brigade Cavalry, stationed near Harper's Ferry. He informed me that last Tuesday three companies of them were ordered to charge through Leesburg on a reconnaissance. This affair proved very unfortunate. They were entirely surrounded, and only fifteen of his own company escaped. A negro regiment, he explicitly states, engaged in the fight. He distinctly saw a large bully negro step up to officer Mills, who was mounted, and demand his surrender. He received a bullet through his skull for his impudence. The running off of the steamer Planter from Charleston. An association of negroes called the "Freedmen's Society," met in New York last week, many whites being at the meeting Several speeches were made, a one of which it was stated that a negro woman who had earned $50 at Hilton Head, S.

The rebel authorities ostentatiously announce that sixty eight commissioned officers belonging to his army are now there — nosed on the 6th for the publication of an article entitled "Bull Run the Second." The city of Boston has yet to raise 4,500 volunteers to evade a draft. Gen. Pope was serenaded and made a speech in Chicago on Friday night. Gen. Shields, it is said, will soon be placed in active command. The Cincinnati Commercial states, at Gen. Pope's request, that his report of his disastrous campaign in Virginia was published without his authority or knowledge, and contrary to his wishes. A letter from Charleston, South Carolina, says cotton is worth eighteen and twenty cents there — In New York it rules at sixty cents for middling qualities. T

emselves. Such is a specimen of the rabid, bloodthirsty spirit which the eradicate are seeking to infuse into this war — a spirit which would prolong the conflict for twenty years and desolate the whole country.--There developments foreshadow their platform and their determination to nominate a man for Governor as insatiable for blood as themselves. It is stated that they consider Fremont a man of that stamp, and that he is to be the candidate of their choice. The present Governor. Mr. Morgan, is spoken of; but it is evident that he has little chance. It is more than probable that Fremont is to be their man. If the radical leaders should succeed in completely abolitionizing the Republican party and nominating General Fremont, a singular state of thing, would be presented to the people. Two parties would then be in the field, both bitterly most be to the Administration, but the Radicals more bitter than the Democrats Their beautiful programme is universal emancipation, the arm

sixth instant, is now in progress in that State. It began on Wednesday in many of the towns. Other towns made up their quotas. In consequence of misunderstandings and objections to the character of the suroliment, there were disorderly proceedings in some places. In Middletown, where the draft was made on Wednesday the sum of $1,000 was offered for a substitute, and not taken. Among the dratted men was a Selectman. He therefore assisted in drafting himself in Middletown, Milford, Cheshire, Hamden, Bethany, Clinton, North Haven, and else-where, drafts were completed Many wealthy citizens were among those who drew "prizes." On Wednesday and Thursday four hundred and fifteen men were drafted at Hartford. The City Hall was filled by an anxious crowd of persons.--Punctually at 9 o'clock, Captain Stillman made his appearance at the head of the Board of Selectmen, accompanied by clerks with books, and boys with boxes. A large platform at the end of the hall was used for the

troyed, and to guard and protect long lines of railroad. The recovered territory was credited to the Union account; military Governors were appointed to superintend its delivery into the Union; and the press of the country proceeded to write up a most encouraging development of Unionism. But the more our armies occupied and guarded the country, the more unsafe it became. While they advanced, guerrillas in their rear were quiet. When they spread out to occupy, guerrillas sprang up like Roderick Dhu'smen. The rebels, driven from their extended lines of occupation, and forced to concentrate, assumed the offensive, and precipitated themselves upon our rear. Guerrilla bands, co-operating, gathered and captured our posts, detachments, and trains. And now our army is driven back, perhaps, to the starting point, abandoning the fortifications on which so much of the bone and muscle of Northern soldiers has been expended, and is actually compelled to concentrate for defence on its orig
Greeley (search for this): article 1
bune of yesterday, for example, presents the bloody programme of extermination of the white race of the South, as did Thaddeus Stevens, a short time ago, in the House of Representatives. The organ of the Jacobine scoffs at "humanity" as sickly sentimentality, and denounces every attempt to restore peace on the basis of the Constitution.-- To do battle for that Instead of exterminating slavery and slaveholders, would be a game not worth the candle; for "fighting for the union," according to Greeley, is only "fighting for a pretty sentiment" and is more "poetry." It would never "repay us for all the dark days which have crowded upon us since the fall of Fort Sumter." It would not alone for the "roll of our killed, wounded, and missing." and it would bring no consolation to "the widows and orphans of the North." Just as if it would be any atonement for the loss of the Northern dead to add more Northern dead to the list, and as if the widows and orphans of the North would be consoled w

Governor and other officers will be vastly important, and "the struggle will be marked with extreme violence. It adds: The Democrats have united their discordant elements upon a conservative basis, and have selected as candidate for Governor, Oration Seymour.--The Republicans have not yet made their nomination, or announced the principles on which the campaign is to be conducted on their part. But it is understood that the conservative element in the party — including Mr. Seward and Thurlow Weed — has been detected and crushed, and that the radicals will the roost. Their journals in this city are coming out in very remarkable articles, shaping the issue, and laboring hard to bring the whole party over to their sanitary and revolutionary views. The Tribune of yesterday, for example, presents the bloody programme of extermination of the white race of the South, as did Thaddeus Stevens, a short time ago, in the House of Representatives.

." M Y Johnson, of Calena, ill, was recently arrested there for disloyalty and carried to Fort Warren. After getting there, he made some "astounding revelation" to a follow prisoner, who he took to be a Secessionist. This follow-prison had only been put in for violating the substitute law, made affidavit before the Provost Marshal of New York. of which the following is the substance. That on the 2d of September, Madison Y. Johnson, of Galena, illinois, and another person, named Sheehan, or something like that name, also from Galena, arrived at the fort as prisoners.
