The People's Loan
The combined action of the Ba d s of Phila
delphia, New York, and Boston, in accepting
the second option of $50,000,000 of the
National Loan, on 7.30 per cent. for three
years, shows the sagacity as well as the patriot
ism of these institutions. The maintenance of
public and of private credit mult he coincident
—or rather, if public credit be weakened, pri
vate credit receives a terrible blow ; while, at
the same time, the involvement, even- the ruin,
of individuals, and even of banks, need not
necessarily be of more than fleetingeptbarmss
ment and injury to the financial cottdition of
thy State.
As, with the first Fifty Millions, the public
will be allowed to participate in the" dvantages
to be derived from the investment of money,
in the second and corresponding portion of
the Loan. What these advantages are was
very clearly shown in the Money Article of
yesterday's Press ; and we shall here condense
the points.
Let us assume that a person has One Tihou
sand dollars to invest; and desires to place it
out upon the most secure and most renmAif
tive security. In State, city, county, or rail
road bonds, or in bond and mortgage, at par,
at six per cent., the result will be $6O. De
ducting $l5 for ordinary taxes and 8 per cent.
income tax on this $6O, the nett income from
$l,OOO, so invested, will be exactly $4-3.20. Or,
invest the thousand dollars in United States 6
per cent. stock at 00, the gross income accru
ing will be $66.66 ; with 3 per cent. in
come tax and no ordinary tax leviable
upon this, the nett income will be : $65.06,
on the investment of a thousand dollars.
Jut, invested in , 7.30 Treasury Notes, at
par, the gross income of $73 will accrue,
and deducting $l.lO (half - income-tax,) with
no ordinary taxes, the nett income will be
$71.90 for each $l,OOO invested. Here, then,
is a difference indeed. By one investment, a
nett income of $43.20 ;—by another, of $65.66 ;
by the new Loan, of $71.90. We submit that
there is wonderful significance and irresistible
argument in plain facts like these. Figures of
rhetoric may lie, but figures of arithmetic are .
very truthful.
That portion of the English press which is
in the hands or under the influence of the
Hothselahis and other European money-lend
ers, insists that the luau of 5130,000,000 can
not be raised in the United States; that the
Government at Washington will have to bor
row it in Europe ; that the rate of: interest is
ruinously high, and that our National Debt
will crush us to the ground.
This last declaration comes with infinitely
bad_ grace from the other bide of the water.
The National Debt of England, commenced by
Charles 11., in 1660, has increased, chiefly to
carry on foreign:wars, to the enormous sum of
$4,000,000,000, besides a considerable amount,
($70,000,0000 floating or unfunded debt, in
Exchequer bills, which are promissory notes
issued by the British Government for tempe
rary purposes. That England, owing 4,000
million dollars, should pitiably speak of our
- owing one-fifteenth of that amount is truly one
of the best jokes of the day.
As for the rate of interest, we take it that
7.80 per cent. in the United States, where the
ordinary returns of investment in Pennsyl
vania and New York are six and seven per
cent., is not higher, comparatively .speaking,
than 41 per cent. would be on a loan in Eng
land, where 4 per cent. is the usual return
for safe investments.
That we must go to the money-markets of
London and Paris to raise money is disproved
by the fact that the patriotisM and the wealth
of our people are able to supply the money—
and that without an eflbrt.
As for security for the interest on our debt,
we point to the increasing population (twenty
millions in the loyal Union States), to the pro
ductive industry, to the adventurous spirit,
to the vast natural productions of the coun
tr y upon and beneath its surface. These con
stitute the best guarantee for the redemption
of the national faith.
The Rothschilds, the Mixings, the Gurneys,
the Goldsmids, and other leading European
money-dealers, cannot understand that our
own citizens are disposed to lend the country
whatever treasure may be required to put
down foul treason and preserve the Union.
Yet, even money-lending experience might
have reminded these moneyed gentlemen that,
in December, 1796, when Pitt had resolved to
prosecute the French war to the uttermost, a
loyalty-loan of 00,000,000 was subscribed; at
the Bank of England, in fifteen hours, by the
public at large ; that, during the Crimean war,
an appeal from Napoleon 111., to the French
people, was equally successful ; and that, only
a few months ago, Victor Emmanuel raised
$100,000,900 by like means. What patriotism
has done in England, France, and Italy, in this
manner, we need not fear that it will decline
doing in the United States. To maintain the
Union, we, as a people, will make any and
every sacrifice, and, for this, to use the im
mortal words of the Declaration of Indepen
dence, ,4 With a firm reliance on the Protec
tion of Divine Providence, we mutually pledge
to each other our Lives, our Fortunes, and
our Sacred Honor."
From the establishment of our Nationality
we have kept faith with the public creditor.
We have refrained from borrowing money ex
cept when absolutely necessary, and the chief
complaint, among the fundholders, has been
that we have too rapidly paid off our Debt.
Hence, our public securities have been singu
larly free from the fluctuations which have
shaken the European money markets; so much
so, that during the present century the market
price of £lOO in the 3 per cent. British con
sols has been as low as 47i and as high as
1011. It is impertinent for English money
lenders to question the American ability to
raise 150 million dollars at a rate of 7.30, when
the mere nett interest paid on the British Debt
is $145,000,000 a year.
We have heard it asked—Why should the
English money-lenders try to run down Ame
rican credit ? We reply—it is the fox and the
grapes all over again. They are out of the
ring, and angry at being so. Had our Secre
tary of the Treasury employed the Roths:
ehilds, and the Baring% and that set, the
United States might borrow a thou Sand
lion dollars in the money-markets of Europe.
But then, these money-brokers would have
paid only 6 per cent., (double the rate paya
ble on British Consols7) and have quietly put
the differcncc between that amount and 1.00
in their own pockets.
That is the history and mystery of the en
mity of the Rothschild clique, of the sarcastic
abuse levelled at us by the Times, of Mr. W.
H. Russell's misrepresentations and abuse.
Mits. D. P. BOWEIIS.—This lady is now playing
at ticiler'a Wells Theatre, in London. She made
her debut there aslicz in "The Hunchback."
The English critics do not agree in opinion as to
her merits. The Times says: "She has neither
thellthysieal force, the commanding figure, nor the
passionate impetuosity which are required for a
perfect delineation of this particular part. She
cannot overwhelm a pit with the torrent of her
woes. - It adds : "This deficiency of power
bein . g conceded, the performance of Mrs. Bowers
eonnnendatien. Her general concep
tion of the character, and her execution of its de
tails, show an original intelligence, which, while
regardless or perhaps ignorant of conventions, coin
pletely avoids every appearance of crudity. There
is nothing stagy' in
her interpretation, neither is
there anything of the novice. To the extent of her
capabilities, she has assumed as her own the feel
ings she portrays ; and that this is the result, not
only of art but of sympathy, is proved by the per
fect case and nature of her manner, and by the
genuine pathos with which she depicts the softer
emotions. AU that belongs to the category of grief
she thoroughly attains, if the creation of terror is
beyond her reach."
The Illustrated London News reportss that
Mrs. Bowers is "deficient in height and petty in
feature," with " a tendency to superabundant em
-Ihasis, and to violent attitudinizing, which, on the
nglisb stage, she will find it necessary to correct,
She it, in fact, througheut too conscious that she is
performing elocutionary feats, and declamation
with her is in the ascendant. In pathetic passages,
her grief or indignation takes too mush of an arti
ficial form; and more than once she ventured
on dangerous novelties which further experience
will teach her the propriety of altogether omitting.
Let her, above all thins, as a rule, avoid imitation
and exaggeration." rom these conflicting criti
cisms, we conclude that Mrs. Bowers has succeeded
in London, but not very strikingly,

Late and Impartant Intolligoneo
The Boston Journal has received files of New
Orleans papers of September IS, and Memphis and
Nashville papers of the 20th, from whioh it gleans
the following very interesting and important ac
count of affairs in the South :
SUSPENSION Or SPECIE PAYMENTS AT NEW OR-
The banks of New Orleans suspended specie pay
ments at the request of the Governor of Louisiana,
who issued a proclamation on tho subject, stating
the step was necessary to maintain the credit of the
$100,000.000 of treasury notes issued by the Con
federate Government, in order to supply the means
for carrying on the war. The banks aro to receive
and pay out these notes at par. The New Orleans
banks were the last to take this step. into , whim,
they hens beets driven by the rebel Ghrep»me,rt_
This action of the banks at once created a scarcity
of small change.
The city authorities propose to issue small notes
of five, ten, twenty, and fifty cents, for one, two,
and three dollars, to supply the place of change.
TALK ON !CfrANGE
The Crescent of the 18th ultimo says :
There were gatherings on the flags of Carondelet
yesterday. True, they did not exceed a corporals
guard, but it is with profound feelings of sorrow
that we have to record that the prestige of Caron
delet street is one of the things that were. We
allude to it in the real sense of the word. No cot
ton on the market; consequently no exchange
making. True, there are orders for cotton for the
Spanish market, ranging up to 11-1 to 12 cents for
middling. The cotton is not in market., but it is on
the plantations; and when Isabella the &Tend re
cognizes the Southern Cenfederacy politically, as
well as commercially, she may receive the hundred
thousand" bales wanted from New Orleans. This is
the general talk ; but there is a great deal of side
talk going on. The sequestration act is freely com
mented on. For the information of all branches of
Northern firms we have to state that they are re
quired to present a full balance-sheet to the au
thorities. For instance ; a copartner of a Northern
commercial firm is required to close at once and
adjust the balances. If there is any thing due to
Northern copartners it is under sequestration.
We hardly know how to balance accounts with
Carondelet street. No cotton, no exchange, and no
sharing—the glorious suspension of coin payments
by our bunks having knocked the shavers (Shy
leeks). into the middle of next month or next year,
alinost induces us to write the epitaph of Caron
delq, -
lie are asked - how Tommy S. Serrill got out of
the Bastile. As we said at the time of his arrest
the Uncolnites would not make much out of him,
our expressions are confirmed. Ile was reported
to fie an agent of the Bank of England. lie was
just as much an agent as citizen Fassman's boss
drayman. But Serrill has got out of the Lincoln
Bastile. Some of our cotton factors would be glad to
receive certain balances for cotton shipped through
him.
DEFENCE OF TILE CITY
The Delta states that the fortifications above
Carrollton are going on finely, and will bo comple
ted in two weeks. They are represented as suffi
ciently strong to prevent the invasion of the pity
from that direction by any force, however large.
The Crescent is apprehensive, however, that a
visit from Uncle Sam's men will find the city un
prepared.
EVACUATION OF. SHIP ISLAND
The Bulletin of the 18th gives the annexed ac
count of the evacuation of Ship island :
' Night before last, at 8 o'clock, the evacuation of
Ship Island, by the Louisiana troops, was comple
ted, the fort dismantled, and the guns, ammunition,
A.c., removed. Thirty-two hours were consumed
in destroying the fort, soldiers' quarters, d:c., and
in removing the troops and armament, during
which time two war steamers, two frigates, and
several smaller vessels, belonging to Old Abe Lin
coln's fleet, were in sight, but at a respectful dis
tance, they not daring to interfere with the debark
ation of our men.
Had not the officers of the Lincoln fleet been
terribly frightened by the appearance of our trans
ports in the vicinity .gf the island—evidently think
ing that they brought reinforcements to the garri
son—they
i might have caused our men much an
noyance, f not great loss of life. The evacuation
of Ship Island was a military necessity, and the
officers who had charge of the work deserve much
credit for the admirable and successful manner in
which it was executed. Yesterday the blockaders,
we understand, approached the island, and threw
several shell into the deserted fort, and finding no
enemy on the island, valiantly landed, and hoisted
the United States flag.
SEA-COAST DEFENCES.
The Picayune argues that the capture of Hatte
ras by the Federal fleet will prove a barren victory,
inasmuch as it has aroused all the seaboard States
to snake vigorous preparations to repel like inva
sions. It says :
"We but speak of the feeling which is every
where manifesting itself in reference to this matter,
among us. The enemy, whether he approach by
sea or by land, will be met as vigorously here as
he has been in Virginia and in Missouri. The en
ergetic measures which are everywhere In progress
for his reception, under the active and judicious di
rection of the Confederate and State authorities,
will result, we have no distrust, in placing us in a
complete state of defence."
The Mayor of Mobile advertises for one thou
sand men to work wpon the fortifications of that
aty. Two launches have been completed at Mo
bile, to be used as a coast guard from Mobile Bay
to New Orleans. Four more are to be built at New
Orleans. What they will be able to accomplish
may be judged from their dimensions and arma
ments which are given as follows :
These boats are 27 feet long, 9 feet
feet hold. Eachimat carries twenty-four men, one
24-pound howitzer, and 24 muskets, and is handled
by twenty oarsmen."
The Crescent boasts of the business of the city,
and says that within the last two weeks there have
been seven or eight large dealers there from
mend, buying supplies for their houses, and esta
blishing trade relations with the merchants of New
Orleans.
The stock of cotton on the 16th ult. was 10,401
bales. Sugar sold at 81e. to 9c.. ' molasses, 22. e.;
Hour, $7.25 to $8; mess pork, ford dollars per
bbl.; bacon, 18c. to 21c.; hay, fifty dollars per
ton ; lard, lac. to 25c.
FROM TUE POTOMAC
A letter in the Delta, dated Camp Leesburg,
September 'T. says :
"Thank Heaven '
our commanders areas fully
informed of all Northern movements as if tele
graph wires ran into the offices of the depart
ment at Richmond, and despite all threats of
Fort Lafayette, our agents are numerous and sleep
less, braving every danger, and successfully ac
complishing their hazardous missions with the
stealthiness of Crows or Illaekfeet Indians.
, 6 Of our numbers and preparations in and around
here, I shall not speak; but everything is as our
best friends could wish. Maryland, opposite all
our camps, is in a fever of excitement, and large
hales of men are nightly 101:71171i' vs at Aquia
creek whenever they can etude the federal craft
but should the enemy ever dream of advancing
into Virginia again, none of them will be left to tell
the tale." '
The Crescent has a letter from Richmond, Sep
tember 13, from which we extract the subjoined:
4: The Cabinet is now, and has been for some
time, divided on the policy of a forward mace
went of the army of Me Potomac. The object
of delay appears to arise from an apprehension that
an attack upon and the destruction of tho capital
would thoroughly arouse the North, and would
speedily heal all the dissensions which have grown
up and are still increasing among the people, upon
the necessity of peaoe or a further prosecution of
the war. It is urged that the entire North, to a
l imn, with means and money, would flock to the
support of the Federal Government, and instead of
an army of two hundred and fifty thousand men
we would have pressing down upon us a mil
lion of frenzied and revengeful soldiers, ready to
butcher, lay waste, and destroy. The dill:Wallies
which now beset the Lincoln Government, in re
cruiting. and filling the regiments now in service,
would immediately vanish, and the entire North,
in forty days, would be one immense encampment,
Others assert the true policy is to (malt the action
of the French and English Governments, that our
difficulties may be arranged without further effu
sion of blood. The army desires an onward move
ment. the capture of Washington, the consequent
uprising in Maryland, and the possession of Balti
more for quartering the army in the winter. What
course will be settled upon is unknown, or whether
the army will cross the Potomac, or commence the
erection of winter quarters on this aide,' is also un
known. A few days will determine everything.
It is evident that a Wine has taken place in the
councils of the Federal leaders, in regard , to the
next field of military operation, and it is alsoevident
that the authorities here are apprised ofthis change
in the tactics of the Federalists. At this moment
large bodies of troops are being sent to the Pe
ninsula from Richmond ; fr,ooo men and 400
mounted men have been ordered to Yorktown."
ARMS AND MILITARY STORED PROM MAW°
A °Weston correspondent of the Crescent,.
writing on the 10th ult., makes the following refer
ences to the reception of arms from Mexico :
".The Indianola Courier says several thousand
rifle and musket cartridges and s everal tons of lead
arrived there on Sunday last from the Rio Grande.
" I see by the Lavacca Key that Capt. Jordan, of
the Green take Company, has returned from Mata
moros, having succeeded in procuring three boxes
of rifles and 1,100 pounds of powder."
A Corpus Christi letter of the 28th ult., published
in the Galveston papers, says:
• " Great quantities of powder, lead, and percussion
caps aro in transit from Mexico to the interior of
this State, and a very extensive purchase of arms.
ammunition, and equipments for infantry has been
effected at Vera Cruz for the Confederacy, on very
favorable terms.
4 ;A train from the Rio Grande also recently
brought to San Antonio five thousand sacks of
coffee."
FROM TEXAS
Recruiting appears to bo going on actively in
Texas. The Governor has been called on for three
thousand more troops. Two thousand are to go into
camp, and ten companies of infantry and four of
artillery to go on the coast and Rio Grande. A
mounted regiment was being raised.
A Taus paper give• the following rumor of lava
don:
Runner says that 3,000 Federal, or rather United
States, troops have been landed at San Bias, or at
some other point on the Paola° eoast of Mexico, for
the purpose of marching across the country toward
Tucson, and forming 1, Junction with the troops in
New Arizona and Mexico, and then entering Texas
by way of El Paso. If such is the case, they will
probably be surprised to learn that their friends
have been captured, ang that they will have to
meet a strong Texas force instead of a strong body
of Federal friends.
The Brownsville Flag, in view of the expected
interference in Mexican affairs by France and
England, calls for the occupation of Northern
Mexico by Southern troops, to at least the Sierra
Madre. A Monterey correspondent of the San An
tonio Ledger, however, takes a different view. lie
says :
"Let us be conyiiiM that the taking of Sierra
Madre, either by voluntary annexation or by force,
will be the downfall of slavery, as nowhere in these
States would it pay, or could it compete with na
tive labor, nor could we establish such a barrier as
to prevent the slaves running into Mexico."
STARTLING RGROR
Under this caption the Savannah Republican, of
September 17, says :
" A soldier who came up from Fort Pulaski last
night reports that an engagement between the
Lincoln fleet and the fort at Port Royal commenced
Monday afternoon and continued through the whole
of yesterday. The gunswerc distinctly heard from
Fort Pulaski."
Prevailing Distress and Fears—The Rebel
Campaign in Virginia Considered a
Blunder.
The Cincinnati Times of Saturday evening says
that a gentleman named Charles Logan. from Og
densburg, New York, who has been in Montgome
ry, Alabama, for more than two years, arrived at
Cincinnati on the Major Anderson, on Saturday
morning, having made bis escape from the South,
by way of Memphis, Union City, and Cairo. He
says that it is impossible to ascertain whether there
is, or is not, any Union sentiment still lingering in the
South, as to express the least devotion to the old
flag will bring down a series of persecutions of which
we in the North can form no conception.
Ile left Montgomery about the first of September,
went to New Orleans, and thence northward to
Natchez, Memphis, and Cairo. As he made loud
professions of devotion to the Southern Confederacy,
and had letters from prominent citizens of Alaba
ma, he succeeded in reaching Union City on the
20th ult., without the least difficulty ; but he was
detained for three days at the latter place, before
being permitted to go on. and then only was allow
ed to pass to Columbia, from whence he made his
escape on foot.
Re says that there are not, in all the Cotton
States, from Charleston to New Orleans, 10,000
leell armed troops. The Home Guards are drill
ing in all the cities, towns, and villages on each.
day, but they have only old hunting rifles, shot
guns, &c., and are very scarce of ammunition.
The fall of Hatteras, and the probabilities of
other expeditions of a similar character but on a
larger scale, and against more important points,
have stree'k consternation throughout the entire
Soak. All the arms fit for use have been sent to
the Potomac, and there is still a scarcity there of
everything except artillery.
The imprecations upon the heads of the poor
Virginians. who are condemned as cowards, and
even inferior to the Yankees, are both numerous
and emphatic. It is the general opinian that the
Coarl'cileracy did a bad work,wheit they prectpz
ated Virginia. They say that, while they could
easily have defended their own homes, without that
State, their whole coast is now exposed to the de
predations of " Northern Vandals," and that
10,000 men, landed at Charleston, Mobile, or New
Orleans, would effectively disperse the army on the
Potomac, when the whole command of McClellan,
which they know to number over 200.000 men,
would come down upon them like an avalanche,
and they would be without troops enough concen
trated in a single point, to resist him. "Divide
and Conquer," they believe to be the motto of the
North.
The blockade is being enforced more strictly
every day, and the pressure upon the Southern
planters is becoming frightful Upon the mer
chants and business-mon it can have no erect, as
they are already bankrupt.
1 et, with all these discouragements, not a voice
has yet been raised for submission ; but this, he
thinks, arises from the fact that each man is
afraid to be the first to speak. If once the ice
were broken, and the first storm of indignation
weathered safely, he is of opinion that a peace
party, both numerous and determined, would
spring

The general impression prevails that New Or
leans will be the next point of attack,and daily
the wildest rumors of the approach of the Fede
ral forces are circulated in that city. Hundreds
would leave the city if they could, but=they arc
unable to do P.O. The Rome Guards, unarmed as
they arc, are regarded as protection. They are
well drilled, but the blockade has effectually pre
vented them from getting the supply of Belgian
nmekete which have been confidently expected.
Movement of Rebel _Troops from ltich-
mond to YorktOwn.
A correspondent of the New York Herald says
that fugitives who recently escaped from Richmond
to Washington report that there is an extensive
movement of troops from Richmond to Yorktown,
and that the railroad and every available means
are used for the transportation of men and cannon
night and day. Around Richmond, low , rows of
wooden shanties are being erected, evidently, for
winter quarters. Ina few days, all the prisoners
at Richmond arc to be sent to different places fur
ther south.
Affairs in Richmond—News of McGraw
and Eyster, of Pennsylvania.
The Washington correspondent of the Tribane
says:
Col. 11. Kelly, of Greenwich, New York, has
arrived from Richmond. Ile says that ex-Senator
Benjamin is acting as Secretary of War ; General
Bragg has not been appointed, and it is believed
Bishop Polk will have the place. 150 to 200 Fede
ral prisoners are daily sent to New Orleans and
Charleston. None have been sent to North Caro
lina since the Hatteras victory. Among those
still in Richmond are Messrs. McGraw and Harris.
The latter want to go to Kentucky, but neither has
any chance of getting away. They are permitted
to sleep in the court house. E. T. Boutwell, U. S.
N., and Gen. Rentz were held as privateers, to be
offset to the rebel privateer prisoners in New York.
The General was at first on parole, but when it was
learned that the Charleston pirates were in the
Tombs he was put in jail. Mr. Eyster, merchant
from Chambersburg, Penn., has been a prisoner
nine weeks, and three weeks since was remanded
to the common jail from the tobacco warehouse.
His imprisonment is made so painful that he sent a
message to the authorities begging, to be shot. Col.
Seldon, of New York, and Mr. Shurtlilf, an artist
from that city, attached to Bartlett's Naval Bri
gade are also among the , prisoners. Some of the
wood-cutters from Maine, taken from their jobs
near the coast, ate also rusting in captivity.

AFFAIRS• IN KENTUCKY.

Railroad
[Correspondence of the Louisville Journal.]
READouAnym.as, Roussmi.u'a BRIGADE, Near
Rlizabethstown, Sept. -W.—Everything is quiet, and
promises to remain so, for some days at least. A
day or two since, six hundred cavalry passed clown,
near Lebanon, from Anderson and other counties
above, on their way to join Buckner. On arriving
near hlunfordsville, they passed down in the di
rection of the turnpike bridge, and it is supposed.
from various rumors, that they destroyed it. Par
ties of rebels from Central Kentucky are con
stantly going over to Buckner. Stragglers from
these parties aro brought into camp almost every
day by our scouts.

the Kentucky boys, an Ohio regiment has paid him
the high compliment of asking to be attached to his

The position of the enemy at Green river is a
very strong one, and it is not improbable that they
will bring up all their forces, and make a strong
stand there. The hill beyond Green river, rising
to a considerable hei&ht, on the north side, falls elf
but a few feet on the other side, and then spreads
away in a high platoon. Thus a formidable natural
breastwork is formed, the brow of the hill protect
ing the enemy in a position from which he can
command the passage of the river. Of course, it
is useless to tire round shot against the side of a
hill, and consequently, when we get to Green
river, we are likely to witness the spectacle styled
shelling the rebels.''

Address of the Legislature
A. Committee of the Kentucky Legislatur* has
recently issued an address to the people of the
State, in which, after denouncing the infamy raid
duplicity of the traitors. in conclusion says :
We believe we have done our duty to a chive ,
rie people, who have forborne long, but will never
fail, as a last resort. to resent an in jury and punish'
an insult. We should hold ourselves univoethy to
represent you if we hail done less. The only error,
we fear. is, that we have not been as prompt. you
may think. as the occasion demanded. Thrice
have the Revolutionists appealed to the ballot-box
in this State, and thrice have the people expressed,
by overwhelming majorities, their determination to
stand by the Union and its Government. They
have not been active in this war, not from inalirer•
Vice or want of loyalty, but in the hope of better
promoting a restoration of the Union, and checking
the rebellion by that course. Our hope of an ami
cable adjustment and a desire for peace led us to
forbear until forbearance has ceased to be a virtue.
The attempt to destroy the Union of these States
we believe to be a crime, not only against Ken
tucky but against all mankind. But, up to this time,
we have left to others to vindicate, by arms, the
integrity of the Government. The Union is not
only assailed now, but Kentucky is herself threat
ened with 'subjugation by s rimless uourpation.
The invasiett is earrled on with a to deitrite
tiun of property and the lives and liberties of our
people that belongs only to savage warfare.
We have no choice but action—prompt and de
cided. Let U 3 show the insolent invaders that
Kentucky belongs to Kentuckians, and that Ken
tucky valor will vindicate Kentucky's honor. We
were unprepared because unsuspecting. An inso
lent and treacherous invader tells the people that
their legislators hare betrayed them and he comes
with fire and sword to correct their error, by a
crusade against property, liberty, and life.
Young men of Kentucky, to arms ! to protect the
home of your fathers, mothers, and sisters. Suund
the tocsin on every kill and in every valley, until
Kentucky shall drive the insolent invader from her
soil.
Probable Withdrawal of Rebel Soldiers
from Virginia for Service in Kentucky.
A Wa.hington correaporident of the New York
'Wert 'Jays;
Serious doubts are entertained whether. after all
their preparation, the rebel forces will have the
temerity to attempt to cross, the Potomac, either
above or below this city. It must be as evident to
their leaders as it is to us, that such an effort can
bring to them nothing but a disastrous defeat. In
the moan time, their forces have nearly consumed
all the available provisions in Virginia. A de.
pendence upon its exhausted resources presents a
sorry prospect for the winter campaign o long as
Kentucky, and its vast granaries, afforded opportu
alike to procure for them and transport them pork,
beef, and grain, they were safe enough ; but to bo
shut out from Kentucky is starvation to their army.
It is a military necessity for them to recover the
ground lost there by the active demonstration of
Kentucky's hostility to Secession. To do this, and
to secure to themselves the vast accumulations of
pork and other provisions at Louisville, and grain
and cattle in other parte of the state, they must
strike without delay, before the Unionists there
have been fully armed and organiv.ed. There are
now not more than ten thousand Union soldiers de
fending Louisville. In ten days more there will be.
thirty thousand there, and an almost unlimited
amount of artillery. The Union men are hurrying
to the Union camps, with their own shot-guns and
rifles. If Kentucky is not conquered in a week,
the conquest will have to be abondoned altogether.
These considerations, it is believed, have induced.
the rebel chiefs to send forward= to Kentucky by
railroad, via Nashville L a large part of the forces
recently in Virginia. If this is true, the abandon
ment of the lines in front of Washington is partially
accounted for, and it is believed that Buckner has
been largely reinforced from the rebel army of the
Potomac.
AFFAIRS IN MISSOURI.
ST. LOUIS, October 1.--The Republican teams
that a statement is forthcoming from Colonel Hard
ing, the adjutant of General Lyon, who was, in the
absence of General Lyon, in command of this de
partment up to the period of General Fremont's
arrival here, which will show_ beyond cinestion, the
absolute inapegaibility of aid being rendered by
Fri:mont before the battle of Wilson's.
Creek, in which General Lyon fell.
JEFFERSON CITY, Sept. 30.--ISpecial despatch-to.
the St. Louis R epub icand —There is no intelli
gence of importance from BOOLICNiIIe. Georgetown )
Sedalia, or Glasgow. and no apprehensions are felt
of aiiy immediate attack on any of those points-by
the rebels.
All the reports received from Lexington corrobo
rate the opinion already expressed, that the rebels
intend to keep their main force there; but it is
stated that several bodies. ranging from two•hun
dred to two thousand, have left there within, a. few
days past for the north and west, but for what pur
pose is unknown.
General Fremont preserves a strict silence, but
he is said to be actively engaged in obtaining the
exact number of troops he can command; and
organizing plans for the approaching engagement.,
on the success or failure of which. he is to rest his
reputation, and win or lose his all. Every day an
increased interest is felt in the approaching battle,
for it is generally supposed that it will decide the
fate of Dlissouri.
Some, perhaps, murmur at the delay,. but Gene
ral Fremont is determined to have everything
ready before he advances, and not to strike a blow
before he thinks it will be effeetive.
The opinion is becoming generally prevalent that
the Secessionists at Lexington arc by no means
despicable, but that with their vast numbers and
ample ammunition, their confidence and courage,
they will make a powerful and determined resist
ance.
The pickets of Price's army descend from Lex
ington to within about eight miles of Georgetown.
They are stationed very near to each other, and
thus the intelligence of all our mmiements is con
veyed to Price's headquarters in the briefest space
of time.

Fremont in the Field
The St. Louis Democrat of the 27th ult. says
Major General Fremont, with several of his staff
officers, and other military assistants, on the 20th,
left for Jefferson City to assume in person the im
mediate and active command of his army in the
field. [lle arrived at Jefferson City on the 27th. I
The attention of the country is now riveted
upon Missouri. From its commencement, the
war drama here has been of peculiar interest.
Camp Jackson, Booneville, Carthage, Springfield,
and Lexington, with intervening tragedies only
less thrilling, have in succession absorbed and
intensely excited men's minds. All now feel that
interests of incalculable moment hang upon the
success of Fremont in his present movement. The
situation of Missouri is critical. The rebels have
gained advantages that have flushed them with
unwonted hope, and are known to be moving
forward in increasing numbers for the seizure
of Important posts. We believe that their eon&
denee will be short-lived. Though without the
army which should be at his command, there is
still every reason to believe that Gen. Fremont will
speedily achieve a series of memorable successes,
and in effect end the war in this State. That such
will bo the result we feel as certain as we can be of
any human event yet in the future. The enemy
has repeatedly shown himself to be almost immea
surably inferior to our troops, and has thus far
gained whet he hes by wroldiug; light, and at length
pouncing in immense numbers upon a comparative
handful of them. This being his evident plan, it
would seem to have been policy to draw him in
force into the interior of the State, and thus sur
round and capture or destroy him.
Besides the paramount interest felt by Fremont
in the security of Missouri and the prosperity of
the country, he doubtless feels that ho has an im
mense personal interest now staked upon his suc
cess.
Price and McCulloch are reported to have
formed a junction of their forces near Georgetown,
and to be together advancing, some thirty-five or.
forty thousand strong, upon Jefferson City. Further,
accounts represent that other prominent points are
immediately menaced by the rebels. It is evident
that they will now be left little leisure to prosecute
their amateur warfare, and will scarcely be allesruch
the alternatiN-e, as heretofore, of lisht or flislit.
The indications are that they will be hemtned.im
on all tides, and be forced to surrender at discre
tion.
Important Action of Gen. Price.
The St. Louis Democrat says: t , We learned
from sources of undoubted :tenability, that after
the surrender of Col. Mulligan Gen. Price. pro.
eeeded to organize his hums° force upon en in
fantry basis, sending elf the large number of
horses attached to his camp, and reserving out of
the whole but four regimouts of cavalry.
This proceeding meana at least two things, viz.:
that the rebel general Intends to deprive his men
of the opportunity of scattering or going ; home it
they get tired.of campaignin; ; and that he is de
termined to give Can. Fremont a fair stand-up
fight whenever the occasion offers.
This intelligence,, we are sure, will meet the
hearty approbatitta of Gen, Frratertt and the
bravo soldiers witkor him. A regular etanti , up,
open-field fight is. just what they want.

Piriket Life on the Upper Piitoinate.
[Correspondence of The PITH.]
POIYTof ROCKS; Maryland,
September 24; 1.361..
There are so many Pennsylvanians who have re-•
latives or friends in Colcsmi•Geary's - regiment- that
a Isnef account of pielret life on the - Upper Pete
mac, from one who has spent some daye there. may
not be without interest. Tin:regiment is encamped
near Point of Rocks, from whence companies are
detached for picket duty along-the river, above and
below the "Point." The pickets - of a company
extend for some distance from the "quarters" of
the company, which-are located:generally near the
centre of the line. From. five to eight men are
assigned to each picket, where they form an almost
independent family. They receive their ratione in
bulk, and cook theni thinueelves. They are so plenti
fully supplied that they have mere than they OHM
use, and they exchange the surpine for little arti
cles with neighboring farmers. Some of the pick ,
ets have substantial thatched hutszf•straw ; others
are building "shanties" of boards, which they wilt
line on the inside with straw. The• pieki3ts - occupy
the narrow strip of land between Aloe Chesapeake
and Ohio canal and the Potomac river. The
scenery is of- the most beautiful description. Oar
favorite Wiremhiekon den eat eseel It. The
life has such charms for the men, and• they
enjoy it so greatly, that their only: fear is•that
they will ho recalled to camp, the monotony
of which is increased by the contrasting_ excite
ments of picket life. The danger is • not se
great as may be imagined, for in front stretches
the broad Potomac, from two to three - hundred
yards wide, studded, it is true, with innumerable
islets, but with the most ordinary vigilance ne
person can approach our pickets from the Virginia
side without being perceived. The pickets • are
generally covered by trees, in addition to which
they have their defences; they are comfortably
equipped, have splendid arms, and are commanded
by able and indefatigable officers. During lengthy
conversations with the pickets along the whole line,
no murmurs nor complaints were heard, all seemed
happy and contented, and they almost idolize their
Colonel, in whom they hate the most unbounded
confidence. The nice in some places were in the
highest spirits, full of fun and frolic, more like
schoolboys than demure men. This is owinr , ' to
their perfect health. They say they "never felt
so well before in all their lives;" they are gene
rally increasing in weight and strength; some of
our "puny Philadelphia boys" now look as robust
and hearty as those from the interior of the State.
There have been some cases of fever and ague, but
the approaching frosts will relieve the men from
any apprehensions on that score.
Strange as it may seem, the occasional appear
ance of the enemy on the opposite bank, the daily
alarms serve but to give additional zest to this
wild life,. it keeps the men on the alert, their
powers are aotivelv exercised, and when they lie
down to sleep their slumbers are sound and sweet ;
they arise refreshed and ready for action. They
have fresh beef served to them on alternate days ;
potatoes are part of their rations, and flour is some
times Envoi instead of hard biscuit; those who are
not too lazy con easily secure quite a variety of
dishes by taking a little trouble in the culinary de
partment. The men wash their clothes in the canal,
and dry them on the bushes ' • the ironing is done in
the wearing. Great credit is-due to Quartermaster
B. F. Lee for his untiring exertions to provide for
ihe sustenance of the men under Col. Gettry's cem
mend; now amounting almost to a brigade. The
vigor and spirit of an army depend gseatly upoh
the condition of the stomachs of the men. This
the quartermaster seems to understand. and the
result is that Col. Geary has now under him a force
upon which he can rely—of which Pennsylvania
and the country has good reason to feel proud—and
although we at home can never cease to feel
anxious for their health, and their eventual safe re
turn, it is a.satisfae.fion to know that they are well
cared for, and asTomfortable as a patriotic response
to their country's call can permit a soldier to be.

UNITED STATES STEAM FRIGATE "NLAG ARA,"
Oft' S. W. Pass of Alihsh,,ippl, Sept. 2, 1561..
Of the weather, I can say but hot, hotter, hot
test—thermometer 112 degrees. Oh, for an iee
berg ; or, better still, an iced cobbler! Since my
last, nothing hasoccurred to change the usual dull
routine of our present life until Friday last, when
quite a little excitement was created by ene of our
small boats (which had been sent on a sort of soout
ing expedition up the Pass) being chased by a rebel
steamer, and many were the speculations as to the
success or non-success of the chase. Our forecastle
pivot was trained, ready to draw a bead on the
" secesh" as soon as she came within range, bathe
fore she had got within that desirable distance it
was given up as a.bad job, and she returned. On
sending ashore the next day we learned that she
was fully armedyand was down on a kind of voyage
of "see what you can see." Last evening the
TTrater Witch. arrived here, bringing us news up
to the I.sth.ultimo. She also brought us a man
who had escaped from New Orleans about two
weeks since and got on board the Brooklyn. He
states that he saw. the groat " Prow steamer" they
are there fitting,out to come down and visit As. nig
description of bor. ii .she claci with ZAI.II - 914d trim,
and completely arched over with iron, nothing visi.
ble above her deck ; she mounts but one gun, and
throws a number. of streams of hot water ; in ap
pearance she represents a vessel bottom up ; she is
to be ready in two weeks' time, but is as yet unde
cided which one of us to "butt" Srst.
We are ordered by flag officer, and send per Wa
ter Tritch, twenty-five men and an officer to the
Brookirt., to take part with a like number from
her in erecting.o. fort at some par& up Paso a l'Ort
tre. I refrain, from making any comments on the
feasibility . of the plan, but lam doubtful any per
manent benefit can be derived from it, with the
small force we have, against the overwhelming
numbers that the rebels can bring to bear upon us.
It is reportedhere that there is a story in circula
tion at home that several privateers have escaped
from these pasties. As far as this pass is concerned,
I most emPhatieally say it is false, and I very
much doubt itany have got out at the others, al.
though the blookade at the passes of this river are
sadly ineffective. Maix-ToP.,
SEPTEMBER 14,.1861.
On the.afternoon of the Bth inst., the 'VI ncennev
arrived, he:Wag come down to relieve the St.
Louis, and, after communicating with us,took her
departure for her station. On the llth,,the long
looked-for and anxiously-wished Connecticut ar
rived, bringing us our letters—those sweet mes
sengers of,love, which contribute so materially in.
making_ lire desirable to us, removed,.as we are,
from those who are the very well-spring of our.ex
istence. .Sy her we !cornea that the party. me had,
sent down to the Brooklyn had not, gone up ;the
Pass as yet, as there was not water enough on the.
bar, anti were to wait until the flag officer sent, a,
vessel. down of lighter draft. I was unable. in.my
last, to state exactly what it was the intention
this party to do ; but, as I have since learned. the
idea is to erect a battery at the junction of the
passes, which will hold conanand of the whole river.
AS , to the possibility of our holding this point against,
the forces which may be marched against it, lam
rather, doubtful ; but I surmise it is intended more
for a blind to draw the attention of the rebels from
Fremont's movements up the river. By the Con
necticut came a new supply of officers for the
squadron, and a recall of ten lieutenants and ten
midshipmen, two of each from. this ship, much to
the ssrrow of all hands, for, from our very loug,as
soaistion, officers and men, had become se well ac
customed to each other, that it has made a breach,
not aasily filled among us. They go home to join.
some of the new vessels fitting out ; and may they
be ordered to duty worthy of them. for they are
men of undoubted courage, faithfulness, mal t
ability.
There is a rumor I - prevalent among us that we are•
