ur,*
SATURDAY, OOTOBER 4,1862.
The Congressional Elections and the
`Breckenridge INiticians.
The opponents of the Administration of Mr. Lin
coln, in this State, have placed in nomination their
candidates for Congress, and they are, with a few
exceptions, the well-known and decided representa
tives of the • Breokinridge organization of 1860.
Let us do credit to the candor with which the lead
'era who have taken possession of what is left of the
Democratic party announce their programme of op
position to the war, and, generally, of sympathy with
Secession. There is less effort to conceal theirPur
polies or their opinions than the terrible condition of
our country might lead us to expect, even from her
most embittered assailants. They seem to act upon
the theory, either that the Republic is gone be
yond peradventure, or else that the Government is
so weak that it only requiees a little more Steady
antagonism to the constituted authorities to com
plete its destruction. We have been astounded, in
looking over the proceedings of the different Break
mridge Congressional Conventions, and in studying
the records of the several eandidates nominated by
these Conventions, to see how steadily this object
has been kept in view.
In the First district, Seinen, J. RANDALL, Esq . ,
is put forward. Mr. RANDALL is, probably, the
most thorough, decided, and above-board of tattle
men who opposed Judge Douglas in 1860. We will
do him the justice to , say that he made no coneeal
meats of his opposition to that statesman, and that
he exhibited unwonted energy and ability in su p
porting Mr Breckinridge. His subsequent aelaons
have been in accordance with• his action durieg
that meniorable`campaign.' One of the first to stand
by the Lecompton policy of Mr. Buchanan, he has
not on a single occasion, either as a member of the
Legislature or as a party leader in Philadelphia,
hesitated to give to the disastroue policy of that
Administration his hearty and most active aid.
EDWARD G. WEBB, Esq., has been formally
placed in the field, as an lode pendent Douglas De
mocrat, in opposition to Mr. RANDALL. RiS letter
accepting the nomination tendered to him by De
mocrats of his own belief is one of the finest spe
cimens of patriotic eloquence we have ever read,
and we have no doubt that this, as well as his known
courage and consistency in opposing ,the rebellion,
both in its incipiency and culmination, will rally
to his standard all loyal Democrats and Republic'
cans.
In the Second district, CHARLES J. .BIDDLE is
nominated for re-election. Mr. BIDDLE was chosen
to Congress, in 1861, on a distinct pledge that - he
would not act as a partisan, and yet, from the. RlO
'ment he took his seat, his whole course has been in
direct hostility to this pledge, and on many
occasions in direct opposition to the Government
in the prosecution of the war. His celebrated let
ter, in which he denounced the war as a "Black
-Republican job,' and labored to bring the Admin
istration into contempt, like his speech in the House,
in which he compared the loyal States of this Union
to "the sick man" of Turkey, is probably the best
evidence that, if re-elected, he will co-operate
heartily with his former associates and friends,
Messrs. Vallandigham, Voorhees, Ben Wood, & Co.
His opponent, CHARLES O'NEIL, Esq., who runs as
the National Union Candidate, is the unequivocal,
unconditional advocate of the Administration, the
Goverement, and the War; the opponent of Seces
sion, of all sympathizers with Secession, and the
supporter of the President's entire policy, including
his proclamation of emancipation - in the seceded
States after the first of January next. Mr. O'Neil,
is a gentleman of high character, excellent abili
ties, and great decision of purpose.
In the. Third district, Joule KLINE has been se
lected as the candidate who runs in opposition to the
:Administration. Mr. KLINE is an honest and well
meaning citizen, but will labor under the charge
of being indentified with an orgstnization which is
at this time openly and everywhere regarded as
adverse to such a prosecution of the war as will
forever put an end to the -rebellion. His National
Union opponent, LEONARD MYERS, Jr., is a gentle
man of well-known integrity and of unquestioned
loyalty, and will be supported by all the acknpw
'edged friends of the Government and by all who
refuse to sympathize with the enemies of the war e
Mr. Welts is a fine speaker,. an esteemed menaer
-61' the:Philadelphia bar, and was one of those who
volunteered.to march to the defence of the border
in the late call for troops t? repel the * threatened
invasion of the State.
In the Fourth district, Jas. B. NICHOLSON is the
candidate of the opposition to the Administration.
Mr. NICHOLSON is one of the few men who sincerely
acted with the straight Douglas Democratic organi
zation in 1860, and who are now recognized by the
Breckinridge leaders as worthy of confidence. His
canvass is, of course, made with the distinct under
standing that if he should go to Congress he will
vote in the organization with those whose avowed
object it will be to embarrass the Administration,
and, if possible, to hasten a peace on whatever
terms. WlLLiesi D. KELLEY is presented as the
National Union candidate. The people of this dis
trict owe Mr. KELLEY a debt of gratitude for the
manner in which, during the last session of the
present Congress, he upheld the honor of his coun
try, pleaded the cause of the Union, and denounced
the traitors and their associates. He was 'among the
most effective and powerful orators in the House,
and, although a new member, his speeches were
always listened to with admiration. Judge Ken-
LEY's fine talents, unchallenged patriotism, and
thorough-going support of the Administration in all
its great measures for crushing the rebellion, entitle
him to the vote of every loyal man in his dis
trict.
In the Fifth district, CHARLES W. CARRIGAN
has been put forward by the Breckinridgers. No
man within the confines of Pennsylvania has done
so much to entitle himself to the confidence of the
sympathizers with Secession, or who has been on
closer terms with the traitors now in arms. He
traversed the State in 1860, upholding the flag of
Breckinridge, and during all Mr. Buchanan's Admi
nistration was among the most determined apolo
gists and advoeates of those acts which have con
signed that Administration to infamy. Mr. Caner-
CAN is opposed by M. ItnaSELL THAYER, his
exact antipodes. An eminent lawyer, a citizen uni
versally beloved, 8 finished scholar, and an ortho
dox and enthusiastic patriot, there is no name pre
sented to the people of this State for their suffrages
that is more deserving of confidence than that of U.
RUSSELL THAYER.
In the Sixth diseriet, jourr D. STILES iS put up
by the Breckinridgers for re-election. This man's
record need only be referred to, to show not only
that he should not receive the votes of a majority
of the people of Lehigh and Montgeinery, but that
if he does obtain such a majority, he will repeat
the conduct which made him among the most
offensive of the adversaries of the Government
during the last , few weeks of the long term of the
present Congress, when he sat as the sucessor
of Thomas. B. Cooper, edeceased. Mr. STILES is
' setting all doubts at rest in his canvass by dee
nouncing the Administration, holding the Aboli
tionists responsible for the war, and avowing his
determination to repeat the acts which created so
much indignation last summer. Although the
name of JAMES IlpovEN, of Montgomery, was
announced as the union candidate against Mr.
Smits, he has declined in favor of Judge Knauss,
of the same county, an ardent Douglas'Democrat
in 1860, and one of the moat eminent jurists in the
State. Judge KRAUSE, although far advanced in
years, volunteered his services after the late call .
Of the Governor, and was ready to march against
the enemy, had they been required by General
McClellan.
In the Seventh district, which is composed of the
counties of Chester and Delaware, where the oppo
sition to the Administration and the war, on the
part of the Breckinridge leaders, is more virulent
and remorseless than in any other portion of the
country, with the exceptions, perhaps, of the die
, totes represented by Ben Wood and Vallsadighann
the candidate of these men, strange to say, is Gen.
GEORGE A. MCCALL. The recent address pub
lished in these columns, over the signatures of a
number of the moat prominent citizens of Chester
county, objecting to Mr. MCCALL as the candidate
of these men, and admonishing bins that his ac-
Oeptance of their nomination must end discredit
ably to himself, will be remembered by our readers.
Jelin M. BROOMALL runs as the unconditional
Union candidate, against Ge s sneral Dec Uwe Lle is
a citizen of Delaware county, a lawyer of repute
-
den, and the fearless friend and supporter of the
entire policy of the Administration.
In the Eighth district, SYDENIIAM E. ANCONA.,
ultra Breckinridger, Vallandighamer, and sympa
thizer, is up for re-election. Mr. Ancosa asks no
favors from any man who does not approve his
course, and if he is chosen will feel warranted to
take any step that may bring the war to a close,
no matter on what terms. The unconditional
Union men have selected JOEL B. WANNER,
Democrat, as his opponent. Major WANNER. is
now in the field serving his country, and in accept
ing the honor conferred upon him, states; "A Demo
crat heart and soul myself, I am deeply-impressed
by the fact that the compliment you pay me comes
from men with whom I have oo operated when
the name of Democrat was not lard as a cloak for
sympathizing with treassn." Major WANNER is
an influential member of the Barks county bar.
In the Ninth district, the Bree.kinridgers have put
up General GEORGE M. STEINMAN, a worthy Citi
zen, but one of Mr. Bucuerean's most intimate
friends, and one of his most obedient followers from
the time ha tOok the Presideritial chair dein to the
present day. THADDEUS 'STEVENS is the opponent
of Gen. BrEntsresr, and will be easily elected. Mr.
STEN-sus is one of the hereto minds of the present
crisis. His vast experience, great talents, and
stupendous moral courage, made him a tower of
strength during many years of political warfare,
and are at this day so necessary to his country that
it would be a national calamity if he were defeated.
In the Tenth district, that in which Mr. F. W.
:Hughes, chairman of the Breokinridge State Com
mittee, has his residence, Mrnn &MOUSE, the
friend and co-laborer of Hughes, is the Opposition
candidate. Here, as in the Eighth district, the
struggle is almost openly conducted against the war
by the Breckinridgers. Nowhere is the Adminis
tration more foully misrepresented and traduced
than in this section, and should Mr. STEMS& be
elected he will vote precisely as Mr. Hughes
would vote, and speak precisely as Mr. Hughes
speaks in the present campaign. Opposed to him
is Hon. JAMES H. CAMPBELL, for five years
a member of the House for the same district.
Major CAMPBELL is a representative man. His ge
nius, his loyalty, his personal character, his energy
in Tromoting the interests of his constituents, and
lids earnest opposition' to treason; should secure for
him a majority of - thousands in the counties of Le
banon and Schuylkill. He has been identified with
stone of the most gigantic measures and reforms on
our statute books, not the least of- which is the Pa
cific Railroad bill, which he reported from the spe
cial committee of which he was chairman in the
last House, and to the passage of which he contri
buted so much—a measure which will bind the Pa
cific Empire to, the linion forever, and immensely
benefit Pernsylvania. The absence of so many
loyal men in the bettle-field induces the B .eckin
ridgers to hope for the defeat of Major CAMPBELL;
but when the people come to reflect upon all that
he has done for them, and upon that which he is
still more capable of doing, they will, we predict,
return him by a large vote.
In the Eleventh district, PHILIP ,Teturson-7---who
belongs to the school of Ancona, Vallandigham,
Ben Wood, &;Oo.—has been renominated; and it is
only necessary to say that, if returned, of which
there seems to be little doubt, he will feel that his
conduct in* the last House has been fully ratified
and confirmed. We believe the unconditional
Union men have not yet named an opposing candi
date.
In the Twelfth dis'rict, the Breck.inridgers have
selected CnARLEs Thorson as their candidate,
Hon. Hendrick B. Wright having been thrown over
in the nominating convention. GALITSRA. A. GROW,
speaker of the present House of Representatives,
is his opponent. We need only state the fact that
in this district the lines are distinctly drawn be
tween the fearless representative of all those mea
sures which are necessary to the prosecution of the
war and the pinishment of the rebels, in the per
son of Mr. GROW, and the advocate and representa
tive of the adverse policy, which looks to the de
itruction of the Government in the person of Mr.
DENIRON
In the Thirteenth or Bradford district, the Re
publicans-have named ex-Senator LANDON, a gen
tleman of great ability. We perceive that-he is op
posed by Mr H. M. TRACY, who is designated a
conservative Republican, and expects the support
of the Breeltinridgers.
In the Fourteenth district, JOHN J. PATTERSON,
of Juniata, is presented as the NaUonal Union
candidate, and WILLIAM IL-MILLRR, of Dauphin,
as the Opposition candidate.
In the Fifteenth district, there is a decided
"muss" between the friends of Joszstt BAILY,
present Opposition member, and the friends of
Aram J. GLOSSBRENNER, Of York, GLOSSBREN
NER being the candidate of Jeremiah S. Black,
who seems to have taken up his residence in
York county within the last few weeks, and who
is now marshalling the Brack inridgers. The West
Chester Democrat States this case as follows:
" We do not often meddle with the doings of those
who in these day of danger still cling to worn-out
party organizations. Our old friend, lion. Joseph
Baily, however, is in a fight in his Congressional
district with the conferees of York county, and as
he is well known here, his troubles may be of local
interest. The district is composed of Perry, Cum
berland, and York. Bally carried Cumberland and
Perry, but not York. The conference was "appointed
to be held at Bridgeport, on the llth of September,
where Cumberland and Perry were represented by
throe conferees each, but when stately York appear
ed on the ground she demanded to be heard by six
conferees ! Baily's head was to be cut off and
Judge Jeremiah S. Black, of Lecompton and Bo
- ohanan memory, was there at the head of the con
ference (he practises law now in the borough of York)
as the headsman. The conferees from Perry and
Cumberland organized the conference and then
`offered to admit three but not six from York. York,
by the mouth of Jere Black, protested, on the
ground that she had a thousand more votes than
Cumberland and Perry combined. Her protest did
not bring the answer, and Mr. Baily was accord
ingly nominated without her assistance.
We do not find the name of the unconditional
Union candidate in this district, and probably our
friends will allow BALLY and Gr,OSSBEENNER to
fight it out.
In the Sixteenth district, EDWARD MCPHERSON,
the present member, is put forward for re-election.
If ability, thorough loyalty, and the universal
esteem of all who know him will secure a majority,
Major MePnEusox will be successful.. Ile was
one of the men who volunteered after the late
call of the President, as he volunteered in the
three.months service, to defend the flag of the
country. In a card to his constituents, he says :
" Our State being threatened with invasion by a
ruthless horde who are enemies alike of free insti
tutions, the country, and the race,.the Governor has
called upon ens of her distinguished soldiers to take
charge, to organize, and command the thousands of
brave and patriotic citizens who are flocking to
her standard. Deeming it a high duty to aid in
this sacred work, I have tendered to Brig. General
Reynolds my services as a volunteer aid-de-camp,
and they have been accepted. I enter at once
upon these duties—volunteering in the line in which
I have most experience, to do what I can to cheek
the invasion, and protect the border, and our be
loved Commonwealth from spoliation. I will give
these Services as long as they may be required, or
until called to resume my civil duties in December
next."
A. H. COPPROTII is the candidate against Mr.
hicPnEnsox.
In the Seventeenth district, the Breckinridgers
have nominated ARCHIBALD MoALLimu as their
candidate, and the unconditional-Union men S. S.
BLAiR, the present Representative. Mr. Bram 18
one of the most conscientious and influential mem
bers of the present Congress, and we cordially trust
that he may be re-elected.
In the Eighteenth district, W. H. ARUSTRONG,
the able and eloquent Representative in the last
LegislatUre from the county of Lycoming, has been
put up by the Union men, and will undoubtedly be
chosen, unless JAMES T. lIaLE, the present Repre
sentative and a Republican, should persist in al
lowing the Breckinridgers to use his name as the
opponent of Mr. ARMSTRONG, a movement to which
we trust and believe Judge HALE will not Lend
himself,
In the Nineteenth district, Gram W. SCOFIELD
is presented as the National Union candidate, Erie
county protesting on the part of her conferees.
Miami C. COBTRIOET is TIM as an independent
candidate.
In the Twentieth district, C. MYERS, of Clarion
county, a very able and loyal man, and universally
beioved,"is the 'Union candidate against that facile
politician, Hon. Givrr,onn CHURCH.
In the Twenty-first district, the Breokinridgers
have selected Jonx L. Dawsox as their standard
bearer. Mr. Da.wsox is an ambitious, able,
scheming politician, atd will leave no effort un.
tried or means unexpended to obtain a majority
in this struggle. Like the most of those with whom
he associates, he is bold in the utterance of his
half-disloyal sentiments: We notice that at a late
meeting which he addressed in the town of Greens
burg, Westmoreland county, now a portion of his
district, he was exceedingly indignant at the charge
of disloyalty, and entered into an angry and vi
tuperative vindication of himself. It is always a
bad sign when a public man is compelled to this
sort of defence The true patriot is never ques
tioned or suspected. As a comment upon Mr. Hiw
sox's speech at this meeting, we notice that the
following resolution was adopted, showing that his
own friends understood him a good deal better
than he did himself:
Resolved, That the Abolitionists are mainly re
sponsible for the existence and continuance of this
war. Disregarding the plain provisions of the
Constitution, they deliberately, and by desigc, set
interference
withfoot and organized a system of
with the rights of the people of other States, which
has finally brought on the deplorable state of things
which we now see, arresting the onward progress
of a great peop'e, and wasting its substance to a
fratricidal war.
One part of the record, of Mr. DAWSON is
resting at the present time. He was the apologist
and defender of James Buchanan's Administration
from the start, and was the president of the cele
brated Democratic State Convention, which met at
Harrisburg on the 4th of March, 1258, in which he
supported the whole Lecompton policy, with all its
enormities, in an address which ought never to be
forgotten by the people of his district. Mr. DAw
sox's entire sympathies then were with the Southern
despots, and his opposition to the present Adminis
tration and the war shows that he has not repented
of his coural. The opponent of Mr. Hawsox is
WiLman M Srawater, of Indiana county, who is
making a splendid canvass, against his adroit and
wealthy competitor, and who, running as the
unconditional defender or the Government and the
war, ought to beat him by a largo vote, notwith
standing the district, under the new apportionment,
is confidently claimed by the Breckinridgers.
In the Twenty-second district, the candidate that
represents the Pittsburg Po7t, and the Francis W.
Hughes party, is 0 EORGE P. Hastrt.rox, a lawyer of
considerable ability, who, judging from the Admi-,
nistratienjournals, takes very little trouble to con
ceal his syropathies for secession. His opponent is
General Jamas K. *OORTIBILD, the sitting mentber,
one of the Most energetic and reliable Men in the
Rouse, and a devoted advocate of the policy of the
Adminiatration
In'the Twenty-third district, the Opposition have
nominated JACOB ZIEGLER, of Butler county, and
the Republicans TaolLia WILLIAMS, of Allegheny.
In the Twenty-fourth district, the present mem
ber, Joan . W. WALLACE, has been renominated as
the National Union candidate, and is opposed by
JESSE LAzEAR. This is a very alto district.
It will be seen that, with four or five exceptions,
every candidate running for Congress in this State
on the Opposition tiaket t belongs to the class of men
who aided Mr. Ducgintait in the preparations of his
Administration for'the war in which we are now in
volved, and who steadily sustained him in fill the
measures which led to the dicrup'ion of the Demo
cratic party. They are now candidates before the
people, and as the people are fully forewarned, it
will be their own fault if they should endorse the
conduct of these reckless and unscrupulous parti-

LETTER FROM NEWBERN, N. C.
[Correspoodence of. The Press.]
NEwnEatr, Sept. 20, 1862
This old place is about as drowsy a concern as was
ever built. Nearly all the white folks have skedaddled,
and those who remain are a sneaking, treacherous set,
who would out a loyal man's throat if they dealt. There
are some very fine houses, splendidly furnished, which
have been left thus by their owners. The largest and
beet are now occupied se headquarters by our generals,
colonels, and medical corps and some of them have even
been converted into hosidtals. The 23d biaaeachusette,
acting as a garrison, is quartered in private residences.
Sentinels are posted at every corner, and after 9P. IL
pedestrians must show their tt pass." A lot of prieorters,
who bad been in the jail here for some time, were sent
North yesterday.
I find the opinion quite general that we shall change
our war policy for one more vigorous. The presentnilld
course has no terrors for the Seceah. One 'scoundrel
came into the office yesterday and demanded pay for the
use of a piece of land. When asked if he had taken the
oath of allegiance, he coolly replied, I , No." The man
was then informed that the United States had assumed
ownership of the land, and that he need not give himself
further trouble about it. He then asked whether, in the
event of his taking the'oath, the United States would re.
store the property it had tt tuk from him ?"',R" Ask that
question of the provost marshal, after you have taken the
oath," was the answer. We must whip, confiscate,
emancipate, destroy, before these licoundrels can be taught
behavior.
General Foster says, that if he is driven from this post
the tt darks " will go first l he is determined not to lot
them fall again into rebel hands. It is said that there
are from six to ten thouraad contrabands here, They
came from all quarters, and are employed in almost
every department. They seem happy and generally
work with a will. The lazy ones are employed on the
fortifications. In spite of the black laws, the slaves and
free colored have learnt a good deal since the war
broke out If an act of emancipation is not declared,
thousande of them will at any rate follow the fortunes of
the army, and leave when the troops depart.
I don't see bow the natives hereabout live. There Is
no manufacturing going on. There being no trade with the
interior, the tar,..ch, and turpentine business is mined,
and the stills all closed. Truly therein a deal of desolation
in this Southern country. As to Northern men settling
here, I doubt if many will do it. Perhaps, if the Govern.
meat would reduce these States to Territories, confiscate
tbe lender, and open them to settlers, communities for
mutual proteclion might be established as in Kansas, a
republiaan form of Government instituted, and the Staten
thus gradually be - restored to the Union. J. A. G.
Letter from the Anderson Cavalry.
HEADQUARTERS ANDERSON CAVALRY,
CAMP ALABAMA, OARLISLE,
Ootober :4 1 , 1862
To the Editor of The Press:
Ssn With the expulsion of the rebel horde from
'"
Maryland, My Maryland," or rather our Maryland
now—for, 'since her petriotic sons spurned the invitation
given by General Lee to rally around the "stars and
bars" in oommon with the fiendish traitors who are in
operirebellion against the constitutional authority of the
Federal Government, there • can be" no longer a shadow
of hope that she will ever be found connten‘ncing their
traitorstua actions—the necessity which called us forth to
act as scouts Sn the Oumberland valley ceased le exist,
and by the order of Governor Curtin we were sent back
to Carlisle to await orders to join General Buell.
Had it not been for the zeal and activity displayed by
the Anderson Troop, and the promptness manifested by,
the citizens of the old Keystone, in responding to the
Governor's call for troops to defend the border, no one
could now be able to say s' our -homes are sate, our State
is free from the foul pollution of Jackson s traitorous
hordes." To the militia men of our State, much credit is
due for their patriotism in crossing into Maryland,
thereby evincing their desire to be among those who drove
the &cm& army back to Virginia, to starvation, demoral
ization, and ruin. While we have just cause to rejoice
at the signal triumph of the Union army, under our brave
McClellan, yet does the Anderson Troop have to mourn
the loss of a brave, considerate, meritorious commander,
instead of being nought but joyful over the great victory
which has been vouchsafed to the glorious banner of the
free.
If rumor be correct, our fearless Captain Palmer wax
taken prisoner by the rebels on last Friday week, while
nobly performing his duty in Virgil:de. What seems to
give strength to the rumor is the fact that neither Gov.
Curtin nor any of our Trookhave any knowledge of his
whereabouts, nor have they received any tidings from
him since he separated from them, after his daring ac
complishment of the order of Gen. McClellan to burn the
bridge at Dam No. 5, on tbe Potomac. This he accom
plished, as it were, under the mouths of rebel batteries,
which were planted in Virginia to protect the dam from
being destroyed by our soldiers. We mourn him as
among the heroes who have freely sacrificed their lives In
defence of the Union and in , support of the God-given
rights of man to eelf-goventmeat. Should our fears
prove correct, that he has been murdered by our fiendish
foes, direful will be the revenge the Anderson Cavalry
will visit upon their heads, should they be permitted to
meet them in battle.
Since the lose of Capt. Palmer, and the indisposition of
Lieut. Spencer, our Troop has been under command of
Capt. Ward, a member of the Old Buell Body Guard."
A. little more than a year ago Oapt. Ward joined the
old Anderson Troop as a private; but through merito
rious conduct he has been raised from the ranks, grade
by grade, until lie now has temporary. command of a
thousand men. Should it be necessary to appoint another
to fill the place left viscera by Capt. Palmer's loss, I am
confident that if the command of the 1, Anderson Caved.
ry" wee conic:red upon Capt. Ward, it would be in har
mony with the oft-expressed dolma of the entire Troop,
BB all have unlimited confidence in him, both as a man
and as a thorough military disciplinarian. He is, in a
weld, a true gentleman and a thorough soldier.
e Boon as the regimental organization is completed,
which will - probably be within a week or two, we will
turn westward, to join Buell's forces at Louisville. The
members of the Troop are anxkus to be on the move, and
hale a hand in the great game of...battle that is about to
be played in the West, telleying, as they do, that it will
end in the total discomfiture of the army of Bragg.

rOSTTION OF TUE REBEL ARMY.
My information from the rebel army is up to yester
day, fieptember 80. At that time Generals Lee, Jack
toil Rill, and Longstreet were upon the `turnpike which
runs from Williamsport to Winchester, and near the
town of Martinsburg. The Confederate lines extend
from Martinsburg to within five miles of Winchester.
The principal part of their force is near Martinsburg,
amid General Lee's headquarters are at that place.
Will TUE 'REBELS STAND AT biANTINSBURG.
As I have previously stated,-the vicinity of this town
offers excellent opportunities for defence, the country
being hilly, rocky, covered with little ledges which pro
ject above the ground just high enough to make an ex
cellent cover for infantry to shoot over, well wooded,
and well adapted in every way for defence. No counties
have been so little drawn upon or so abundant in sup
pike, as the county in which hiartinsbrug is situated and
the adjacent counties. The difficulty of their petition
there is, that It can be easily flanked by a rapid advance
through Charlestown towards Winchester.; but they per
haps regard that an equal advantage is conferred upon
them from the fact that their proximity to Williamsport
holds a large force at that place to guard the river, and
prevett the poseibility of their recroesing into Maryland,
and so lessees the strength of our army at this point as
to prevent it from advancing. How gladly now should
we witness a rapid rise of the Potomac. which would re
lieve the force at, Williamsport and along the river, and
permit an advance! With an equal discomfort would
such an event be learned by the Confederates. ..!!, good
toad leads fromldartinaburg to. Western Virginia. It is
barely possible that if defeated in their present position
a retreat in that direction is contemplated by them.
- BEDE/. LOSS Sing. LEATltici iIICIIAIOND SIXTY
THOUSAND.
An officer in Winchesier sit ttil that ho had heard frond
General Lae the ackno adedgment that since their advance
upon General Pope, at the Rapidan, in alir battles
at Manassas and Bull Bun. before WasinWnin, and in
the several engagements in Alarj land, in killed, wounded
and primers, and from &clacae caused by marching
and other;causes, and by desertion, their army had Bur
fend a reduction of 60 000 M3D..
They have undoubtedly lost inn& from desertion and
sickness, and in consideration of the immense number of
stragglers I think these numbers are not beyond what is
credible.
No reinforcements for the rebels have come in since
the, great battle et Shargsburg. Johnson bad been re
norted coming with 80,000 meurbut he did not come.
tome squads have paned through without eqqipmentas
but not considerable numbers.
REBELS PREPARING TO RETREAT.'
Ty informant states that for ten days the rebels have
been sending back their sick and wounded up the She
nandoah Talley towards Staunton. Baggage wagons
have been passing continually filled with them.
The Confederates have also been sending back cannon
during all that time. Hy informant states that no one
hes any idea that tbe rebels will make a stand. Conyers.-
lag with a rebel officer, he riaid, a Don't you see your
army is all demoralized—you can't fight again." The
answer wee a confession of their deplorable condition,
but an assurance that they could and would fight, though
just now it wee not appearing when. So impressed with
the disorganization of their army is my informant, that
he believes it will be impossible for them to do anything

shpreciat`ng the desperateness of their case, may be in

THE WAR IN KENTUCKY.
Buell Removed and again restored to com
mand—The Reason—Reorganization of his
Army—Situation and Plans of the Rebels in
Kentucky.
[From the New York Tribune]
LOUISVILLE, Wednesday, Oct 1.1882,
Via INDIANAPOLIS, 'Thursday, Oct. 2,1862
Military circles here have been in a high state of ex
citement since Monday There has been a crisis in con
nection with the chief command of the Union armies now
in Kentucky, and many incorrectversions have appeared.
The facts are substantially as follows : Upon the arrival
of Gen. Buell at the bead of the army, on Wednesday
last, be, by virtue of seniority, assumed chief command
of his own and the Army of Kentucky, lately organized
by Oen. 14eleon. A day or two after his arrival, an order
was received from Gen. Halleck, directing a fusion and
reorganization of the armies of Ohio and Kentucky. Gone.
Buell and Nelson were about carrying this order out when
en Monday morning, Colonel Mcllibbin, of General
Halleck's staff, arrived from Washington with en order,
directing General Buell to turn over chief command to
Major General Thomas, and assume command of the pa
roled prisoners and camp of instruction at Indianapolis.
General Thomas, with a most modest Belt: appreciation;
immediately telegraphed to Washington, asking for the
reinstatement of General Buell, as better &tat than
himself. Generale Crittenden, Rousseau, Jackson, and
Boyle, and one or two others—but neither all nor a ma
jority of division or brigade commanders, as awned—
also sent reu onstrances, and, in consequence, the order
was rescinded on Monday morning, and General Buell
restored. The causes of Buell , s temporary disgrace are
understood to have been the earnest demonstrations of
his unfitness by leading men of the Northwest, disgust
€4 prominent Kentuckians with his failure to prevent
the invasion of their State, the urgent request of removal
by Andy Johnson, and the President's own dissatisfaction
with the disastrous termination of the brllliantly•opened
campaign in Tennessee and Alabama
On Gen. Buell's restoration, the work of reorganiza
tion has been completed. One regiment of new troops
has been attached to each brigade. The army of Ohio
has been divided into three army corps—named first,
second and third—of three divisions, with proper COM.
plements of cavalry and artillery. Zech corps respectively
is commanded by Major Generals McCook, Crittenden,
end Gilbert. The division commanders of the first corps
are Generals Gill, Rowena, and Jackson ; of the second,
°morale Smith, Venclerc, and Wood ; of the third, Gene.
Schoepf of Kansas, and Dumont. Crittenden'a corps
originally was assigned to Nelson. Gen. Buell is first
and Gen. Thomas second in command. Large reserve
forces of now troops are being organized, and will re:
main here under Gen. Boyle. Beside reorganizations, a
wonderful amount of work baa been performed here
since Saturday in re.eqnipping, clothing, and paying
t - oops. There seems to be a determination all around to
make up for past losses of time and opportunity, by un
remitting energy in all branches of the service, and re
newing at once operations against the enemy.
The rebel forces, under Bragg, Emlth, and Marshall,
are known to be 'unaltered through Scott, Woodford*

ties, and busily engaged in foraging and recruiting. No
body of any ,Vonelderable strength has been within two
days' march of Louisville this week. The general be
lie of military men is, that usx the approach or oar
forces the rebeLs will hastily concentrate, and commence
a retreat toward Tennessee. As they had ample time to
appropriate and tend off all the horst s, mulct cattle,
forage, and prOvisionS they wanted, they can fi ght us to
much better advantage in Tennessee, near their base, as
our army has double their strength in every arm, and
at; their lines of retreat are open since Bnelre tranfer
from their rear to their front. If they propose to resist
our advance at all they will doubtless, make a stand on
the Kentucky river, so that a collision will probablY take
place before the early part of next week. The convic
tion that the rebels will not fight in Kentucky, but fall
back inio.Tennestee, is universal among old troops, and
the prospect of doing the work of the last six months over
again is so distasteful, that large numbers deserted last
night across the river upon hearing of the order to march.
THE WAR IN WESTERN VIRGINIA.
The Rebel Plan—Attack on Glenville—Bold.
mess of the Guerillas
[Washington Despatch to Cincinnati Gazette]
The•papere here are full of enormous speculations as
to the plane of the rebel authorities for the further prose-
cation of their war of invasion. They talk -about the
probability of Lee's detaching 50,000 of his best troops
to take a march from Winchester on Wheeling, and then
down the river in the steamboats, which, according to
the speculations, the rebels aro to find Mealy tied tiP for
them at the Wheeling wharves.
The danger of a rebel movement on Western Virginia
is not probably over-estimated. It was found out in
their dispatches a couple of weeks ago, and many indi
cations have tended to confirm the suspicions there
thrown out; but the papers here, in their speculations on
the plane, seem to imagine that Virginia and Ohio are as
small and as easily crossed by a forced march as Rhode
Island or the oistrict of Columbia. The rebel outglv
in gs from Richmond are said to be that when this invad
ing army shall have been started off, the balance of Lee's
forces will tall back to Richmond, if not interrupted br
cur troops, and take a position inside the fortifications of
the rebel calital. A large share of this, however, Is,
donbtlees, the elseerest speculation.
TEE ATTACK ON GLENVILLE. •
(Wheeling Intelligencer, October I.]
CLARKSBURG, Via , Sept. 30, 1862.
The usual onletneos of, this place was somewhat dis
turbed on Sunday last, by a report that a considerable
number of rebel cavalry had made their appearance in or
near Glenville, Gilmer county, and that they were steal
ing Union men's horses and cattle, for the purpose of
sending them to their friends down on theKanawhe river.
They were said to be about one hundred strong, and well
armed. Major John H. Showalter, 6th Virginia Infantry,
commandingrpost, despatched two companies ( ts. and la;
of his regiment, and a part of the gallant Ringgold ca
valry, under command of Lieutenant Hart, to Weston on
Sunday afternoon, at which place they arrived the same
night. Lieutenant 'Hart with his men. and Lieutenant
Lawson, with a squad of Captain Itawan's cavalry,
kft Weston early Monday morning and soon round train
of the enemy. They came up with him, or rather in
sight of him, on. Bone creek, near the county line be
tWten Gilmer and Doddridge counties, and found them
to be about sixty strong. They (the rebels) were jast
preparing to eat supper and consequently all dismounted.
Licut. Lawson ordered a ‘$ cbarge,” when be will
thrown from his boree, which made him unfit for duty,
and besides delayed the whole proceeding. Lieut. Hart
then ordered a charge, killing five of the rebels, taking
two prisoners and capturing eight horses. Lieutenant
Lan son's horse, after throning bin rider, ran toward and
was capthred , by the rebels. Had it not been for this un
lucky accidett the whole party would have been taken
prisoners. Our boys were so fast upon them that none
but the pickets had time to fire a gnu. Lieut. Hart says
that he never witnestisd such It skedaddling" as was done
at this "battle" The prisoners arrived hereto-day,
guarded by their captors_
