    WAR FOR THE BION
VICTORY!
THE REBELS ROUTED IN MISSOURI
PRICE DEFEATED IN SEVERAL BATTLES
His Army Completely Dispersed.
GENERALS MAREADURE AND CABELL CAPTURED
1,500 Prisoners Captured and Twelve
Pieces of Artillery Taken,
ST. Louis, Oct. 27.—The following is
received from reliable sources:
Our forces have been driving Price
rapidly since Sunday. At the last ac
counts he was twenty-five or -thirty
Miles southeast of Fort Scott, his ar
my routed and dispersed. On Tues
day we had several fights with him
between Mound City and Fort Scott,
in alt of which ho was badly whipped,
losing fifteen hundred prisoners find
ten or twelve pieces of artillery. Ma
jor General Marmaduke and Brigadier
General Cabell are among the prison
era, with several colonels and other
officers. lie was again attacked yester
day morning, a short distance north of
Ft. Scott, and drives pell-mell in a south
easterly direction. Ho burned two
hundred wagons yeasterday,.to pre
vent them being captured. Nothing
is stated about the loss on either side,
but there seems to be no doubt that
Price's army is completely demoral
ized and scattered. The telegraph is
working to Fort Scott, but nothing has
been received 'of to•day's operations,
except that our forces are still in vig
orous pursuit.
General Steele, with a heavy rein
forcement, is at Fort Smith, with the
probable view of contesting Price,s en
trance into Arkansas. The rebels
were chased all Sunday night, and con
stant lighting kept up.

it AsumaTcor, Oct. 28, 9 P. 31
Dispatches from General Grant, re
ceived this evening, inform the De
partment that an advance in force, for
the purpose for a reconnoissance, was
made yesterday by Warren and Han•
cock.
In the evening the enemy attacked
Hancock vigorously, but were repuls
ed.
The purpose being . accomplished,
the troops were withdrawn from the
advanced position to which they had
been pushed, nearer to their lino of
former occupation. The telegrams of
General Grant give all the details re
ceived :
CITY POINT, Oct. 27, 1864,8 r. M.
Hon. - E, M. Stanton, Sec. of War :
I have just returned from the cros
sing of the Boydtown plank road with
Hatcher's Creek. Our line now ex
-tends from its former left to Arm
strong's milt, thence by the south bank
Hatcher's Creek to the point above
named.
At every point the enemy was found
to be entrenched and his works mann
ed. - No attack was made during the
day further than to drive the pickets
and cavalry inside of the main work.
Our casualties have been light, proba
bly less than two hundred killed,
wounded and missing. The same is
probably tree with the enemy. We
captured, however, seven loaded teams
on their way from Stony Creek to the
enemy, about a dozen beef cattle, a
traveling forge, and 75 to 100 prison
-
On our rightßu tier extended around
well toward Yorktown road, without
finding a point unguarded.
I shall keep our troops out .where
they are until towards noon to-morrow,
in hopes of inviting an attack.
U. GRANT,
Lieutenant General. •
CITY POINT, Oct. 28.—Hon, E. Stan
ton, Secretary of War :—The attack on
General Hancock proves to be a deci
ded failure. He repulsed the enemy,
and remained in his position, holding
possession of the field until midnight,
when ho commenced withdrawing.—
Orders had been given for the with.
drawal of the 2d Corps before the at
tack was made. We lost no prisoners
except the usual stragglers who are
always picked up. Our captures for
the day on the south side foot up 910.
The rebel Gen. Dearing is reported
hilted.
General Meade, in his report says
- "I am induced to believe the success
of the operation, which was most de ,
cided, was mainly due to the personal
exertions of Major General Hancock
and the conspicuous gallantry of ,13rig.
Gen. Egan."
(Signed) U. S. GRANT,
Lieutenant Gefferal.
Reports from Gen. Sherman's de
partment to six o'clock this evening,
indicate that the rebel army is again
threatening demonstrations towards
Teribessee—bUt there is no reason to
il.oubt that Sherman and Thomas will
be found prepared for whatever move
meat may take place.
The reports.from Missouri and Ar
kansas concur in stating the defeat of
Price with heavy loss, •

ITDQ'ES ARMY POTOMAC, Oct. 2
The late movements of this army
have resulted in extending our line as
far as Hatcher's run, on the Duncan
road, a distance of about three miles
beyond our former position on the left,
and in the discovery of the exact -po
sition of the enemy's lines and works
erected for their defence, as well as
the more complete knowledge of the
country between us and the Soutliside
railroad.
It was not believed the enemy had
any very strong works in this direc
tion, and that taking them by surpride
they could be easily driven into the
inner lines of Petersburg; but, to the
surprise of all, not only wore the
enemy fonnd entrenched on both sides.
of the Boynton plank road, but that they
had strong works on both sides of the
Run, extending several miles.
Tfie'second corps, in their charge on
the.plank road, drove the rebels from
their works on the south of the run,
and across the bridge, :of which they
held possession until ordered to with
draw. In the advance of the fifth
corps they moved on the South of the
run, and the road being very crooked
in thid - vicinity, by keeping close to it
,there was a gap between - its loft and the
right of the second corps, The ene
my took advantage of this, and mass ,
ing in the woods under cover made a
Most determined assault ou the right
of the 2tl division of the 2d corps, evi•
dently with intention of capturing the
entire force„on the right; their charge
for a very short time was a success,.
but our men rallied, charged in turn,
and driving the rebels back, cut Off the
greater part of Anderson's brigade of
of Hill's corps.
The number of prisoners thus taken
hero was about 400 including many
officers. In the meantime the sth
corps had reached the enemies works
on their front and became hotly en
gaged ; the lose here was not so heavy.
Darkness approaching, and it being
deemed mwate to occupy so extensive
a line with strong works in front, and
I exposed to flank attacks from cavalry,
orders were issued to withdraw about
two miles, which was done without
loss.
During the engagement the enemy
drove our•men from two guns, but be
fore they could be removed our men
charged and took them. The loss of
the enemy cannot be stated but it is
thought to be about as heavy as our
own in killed and wounded, while
their loss in prisoners is much larger
than ours.
We took about 500 altogether dur
ing the day.
General Grant and staff were preas
ent during the entire day, and in com
pany with Gen. Meade witnessed the
various movements.
During Thursday night the rebels
made an assault on our works south
of where the- mine -was. sprung,- nat.
were driven back with considerblc loss.
Near the same place a party from
theist 'division of the 2d corps made
a dash on a rebel fort and captured it,
taking a Colonel, a Major, a Captain, a
Lieutenant with 20 men prisoners, and
bringing off 2 guns. Our picket line
was advanced here for some distance,
and our men still hold their new
ground.

Address of the Union State Central
Committee, • •
TO THE LOYAL .11E14 OF PENN'A.
n 00 1 ,19 07 VIM UNON STATE CE*TRAT. C0M.,1
l'imAnnrimt, October 2],
To the Loyal Men of Pennsylvania.—
The smoke of the first engagement
has cleared away; and upon the vote.
of her citizens - at bon - ioTemieylVafila
stands by the government of our fa
thers, while her brave sone in the Geld ,
Will not give less than twelve thousand
majority for the good cause. The last
hope, therefore, of the supperters of
General McClellan has disappeared,
and the only result of continuing to
sustain him is to give aid and comfort
to the rebellion by increasing the ap
pearance of disunion among ourselves. I
General Sheridan dealt a terrible
blow to treason on Wednesday, and
every patriot's heart thrilled with joy ,
upon hearing it; but a great majority
for Abraham Lincoln in Pennsylvania
would be far more fatal,. to-tho armed
conspiracy against the Union and the
Constitution. Every vote for :our tried
and faithful President will paralyze
some arm raised to shoot down the
flag, while every vote for the base sur
render at Chicago, and the men who
carry its white flag, will encourage
some rebel to shoot another Northern
soldier. The ticket nominated by
Vallandigham, Wood and Seymour is
now black with treason, and after it is
voted will be red with blood of our
brothers fighting; for us. The war has
existed for the 'last year only by the
reason of our division, and its contin
uance to-day is solely owing to the ac
tivity of the disunion party of the
North and the platform of its conven
tion. While any hope remained of
the election of its candidates, plausi
ble excuses might be found by misgui
ded men for giving: theth their suffra
ges; but after the verdicts of Maine,
Vermont, New Hampshire, Ohio, In
diana, and Pennsylvania, all sensible
persons know that the election is
already decided' by the people, and
that it only remains to ascertain the
majorities. It follows, therefore, that
every vote for McClellan and PendletOn
is an earnest invitation to Jefferson Da
vis to continue this fearful war to waste
more of our treasure and to murder oth
ers of our SONS.
The sublime spectacle
,-cf a united .
north will end the war. We invoke
all patriots to lend their efforts unceas
ingly to. produce this result. By per
feeling the ward and township organ
izations; by the circulation of oca.
ments; by public addresses, especially
by local speakers; Ly earnest person
al efforts with honest but mistaken
men ; by making arrangements to bring
every loyal voter to the polls ; by sen:
ding tax receipts to every soldier and
sailor;: by the im:aediate formation of
campaign clubs in every borough and
community; by great Meetings of the
people by daylight and by torchlight,
and by all the honest, agencies of an
actiVe, and thorough canvass, appealing
to the patriotic zeal, and kindling the
patriotic enthusiasm of a great and
loyal commonwealth, we can attest the
fealty of our State to the flag of!the
Union by a majority worthy of the
historic character of the contest and
of the great issue dependent upon it.
Forward, then, every lover of his
country to this good work ! •aLooking
not to the past but to the future, for
getting all personal considerations,
and appreciating the privilege of some
sacrifice for Liberty and the Union,
let us relax no effort until the polls are
closed. This Committee will continue
to do its whole duty, and relies upon
your instant, earnest and constant as
sistance.
Grant's march of valorand of glo
ry from tho Mipidan to the James
sealed the fate of the rebellion. sinee
then, Sherman has turned its left wing.
Farragut is closing its avenues of
scapo. Sheridan has sent its vanguard
again whirling clown tho valley. It
only remains for us to sound the charge
along the whole HIM, and wrapping
our ballots around our brothers' bul
lets, march to the peaceful, final tri
umph which awaits us in November.
Proclaiming the war to be a failure,
Georgo B. McClellan is himself the
groat failure of the war—a goneral
without a victory—a statesman with
out a record, and if wo aro faithful,
history will add to his epitaph, that
ho was a candidate for the PreSiden
cy without an electoral vote. Let us
all,,thereforo, labor without ceasing.
In memory of our buried martyrs,
in regard for the wounds of otir liv
ing heroes, to guard liberty from its
deadly peril, and the Union from its
treasonable foes, in the interest of re
ligion, and in the hope of the repnb
lie of the future, loyal men of Penn
sylvania, forward to victory !
In be half of the Committee,
SIMON CAMERON, Chairman.
A. W. .BENF,'DICT, Secretaries.
WIEN FORNEY,
The Conspiracy,
Tho Boston Traveller calls attention
to the significant fact that the great
Copperhead conspiracy for aiding the
rebellion, and looking to the establish
ment of a Northwestern Confederacy,
was a far more formidable organii,a
ttion than that which planned and
brought about the Southern seceSsipn.
The official exposure of thiS great trea:
son cannot fail to produce a marked
impression upon the loyal people. It
proves, what was sufficiently indica
ted by too many circumstances to al
low of much doubt, that the Copper
head leaders are in full correspondence
and accord with the chiefs of the re
hellion, and that the success of the
Southern Confederacy would be foi
-1 lowed by a repetition of the experi
ment in the Northwest. It explains
many • operations that have seemed
' doubtful, and defines tho position of
many men whose conduct was incon
sistent with even the "slack allegiance"
that the worst enemies of the Govern
ment find it convenient to profess,
while they remain in the North, for
the benefit of the South.
The exposure of this groat conspir
acy,- Is. li.ts.ilebta uutiou, iei an present
form. What now organization the el
ements of treason may assume, is a
matter of conjecture, with -the cer
tainty only that they will not be idle,
that the men who hate the govern
ment and have plotted for its over
throw,: will not intermit, however they
may change their operatione. Had,
the same vigilance and fidelity on the
part of the government, which hasi ex
posed and suppressed the • conspiracy,
been exerted by the administration of
Mx. Buchanan against the Southern
treason, which was more open and less
formidable, a few men Would have
been sentenced to imprissonment, a
considerable number hooted out of
public life, amidst the contempt and
ridicule of the public, and: Mr. Davis'
rebellion would have boon ranked
with Shay'S war and the whiskey in
surrection. This is the difference be
tween having in power honest 111C13,
Who look to the stability of the gov
ernnicnt, and weak, vacillating men,
who have neither the disposition nor
the nerve to &apple with rebellion.
The lesson for this great exposure is
that the administration which has
proved itself equal to the emergency
should be continued in power,
and that
the party which proved itself unequal
to the suppression of treason, when it
first broke out and would have been
easily controlled, should not again b©
entrusted with the government in
which they so lamentably failed. The .
times require honest men. and .firm;
lIIULI who have the capacity to detect
treason and the pluck to fight it.
