information as to the progress this work has made towards completion. The Yankees say it will be done by Christmas; but it should be borne in mind these same Yankees have foretold sundry things during the war which have not come to pass. From Petersburg. There was nothing going on at Petersburg yesterday. The hostile pickets having, for the time, ceased to fire upon one another, were busily engaged talking politics and discussing the election news. The Yankee pickets insist that Lincoln has carried every State. Whatever may be the facts about the election, it is probable that in what they state they are actuated rather by a desire to make themselves disagreeable than to promulgate the truth. The firing about seven o'clock on Wednesday evening, on the Jerusalem plankroad, to which we alluded yesterday, was brought on by an unimportant movement by a small body of our troops. It was thought expedient to shift the position of these troops, and the Yankees perceiving the

ches as they are of the Yankee Government — are, like ourselves, in the dark as to their master's late. If, however, the non-arrival of the mail-boat be a fiction, we may certainly augur that something has gone very wrong in Yankeeders. Though Lincoln is most probably elected by great majorities, the papers of the contain the announcement of civil and the ding in the streets of the great cities of the Union. Heaven grant is may be set. This consummation were better then the defeat of the IYankees. In the meantime, we mention such reports as reach us concerning the Yankee election. A gentleman who reached here yesterday, direct from Maryland, which place he left on Thursday night, reports that McClellan carried Pennsylvania, and obtained heavy majorities in New York city, Albany and Buffalo. He also denies that Maryland gave Lincoln the vast majority that has been reported. In such portions of the State as he passed through on Wednesday, McClellan everywhere had a majority.

less visit this collecting: at No. 314 Oxford street, and find food for comfort in the pale, stern faces of the men who guard the freedom of his country. By some strange freak of nature, Jefferson Davis, the President, whose portrait is the first to which our attention is drawn, has much in it that is usually held as indicative of the "Yankee" type.--This may, perhaps, be owing in some degree to the peculiar beard — of the same cut as that so familiar in the portraits of his rival, Abraham Lincoln.--There is more refinement, though, about Davis; and the intellect — cool, calculating and indomitable,--which looks out of his clear grey eye, exerts a "higher pressure" on the physique than is usual to the common run of Americans. One impression which the portrait leaves on the mind is that the sword is fretting too thin a sheath.

He would have insisted on conducting the war in a spirit more humane and more nearly approachwho might still have hankered after reconstruction. But now there will no longer be any such. Lincoln does not wish to reconstruct the Union, and will allow no measure to be taken whose tendency apse failures history is so full. Had he refused to resign his command when required to do so by Lincoln, and marched his army boldly upon Washington, he would have found the Potomac quite as easy to , forbids the suspicion. We have no reason to believe, indeed, that he has more principle than Lincoln, or any body else who has no principle at all. He is the most unblushing liar, probably, that t
