November (search for this): article 1
of last year, when no soldiers voted save at their respective homes. Now they vote in camp and hospital, and, of course, are not furloughed to go home, so that there is generally a Union loss on the home vote as compared with that for Governor last year; but all that will be regained in the army vote. We cannot doubt that this will carry the Union popular majority quite up to that of last year, insuring the gain of several representatives in Congress. Pennsylvania is safe enough for the November contest. Indiana has surpassed all expectation. We barely hoped for Governor Morton's election, yet considered the chances decidedly against him, because of the inevitable loss of the soldiers' vote. But Governor Morton has very large gains on all the returns which have reached us, and is reported elected by twenty thousand majority. Of course, this is partly guesswork, but the estimate is justified by the returns. Two Union gains of representatives in Congress (probably Defrees in

Miscellaneous. An exchange of prisoners in the Trans-Mississippi Department has been agreed upon. Hon. John M. Mott, formerly a member of Congress from New York, died on the 11th instant. General John A. McClernand has come out in a letter for McClellan, who, he is confident, will never stop the war till slavery is wiped out. The Philadelphia Bulletin of Monday announced that Benjamin F. Hancock, father of General Hancock, presided at a Republican meeting at Norristown on the 6th instant. A letter from Newbern, North Carolina, reports forty deaths a day there from yellow fever.

St. Louis, Missouri, October 11. --Intelligence has been received at head-quarters that Price's army went from California to Booneville, Cooper county, yesterday, and Shelby sent two thousand cavalry across the Missouri river at that point. General Fisk has gone to Lexington to take command there. General Sanborn is still pursuing the enemy. Reports were extensively circulated to-day that Magruder, with five thousand rebel infantry, had entered Southeast Missouri and occupied Frederickstown, but they prove to be unfounded.

he number of men joining from furlough and hospitals about compensating for loss in battle and from sickness. The report is composed in General Sherman's terse and trenchant style, and forms a most interesting history of, perhaps, the most brilliant and complete campaign of the war. He terminates his recital with the following deserved tribute to his subordinate commands: "My three armies in the field were commanded by able officers, my equals in rank and experience--Major-Generals George H. Thomas, J. M. Schofied, O. O. Howard. With such commanders I had only to indicate the object desired, and they accomplished it. I cannot over-estimate their services to the country; and must express my deep and heartfelt thanks that, coming together from different fields, with different interests, they have co-operated with a harmony that has been productive of the greatest amount of success and good feeling. A more harmonious army does not exist." Affairs around Richmond.
