My DEA.It" SIR thank you for your polite
note of congratulation upon my return homer If
the weather will permit I will make an effort to see
'you beforamightfall.
You have been correctly advised ; I am prepared
to support the Administration from a sense of duty.
I cannot see what can be done by;the Executive but
to have the law enforced. The . country is either
at.war with a foreign enemy, or, it is engaged in
suppressing Jebellion. If.the men .we fight are
enemies of our country, in arms against 'us, our
part is to xiinquish them. If they are citizens in
rebellion, our part is to bring-them into subjection
to ; he law we all acknowledge, and which we all
must Obey. 'Any - one who thinks otherwise, and is
not prepared tb sustain the Government, had better
renounce its protection and go the other side of the
line, and potlive tinder a law he .00/uteri:lns, and
encourage enemies who - inake,war upon us all, to
'overthrow a Government` established-by their'own
assent, and.administered by men chosen by popular
.will freely and fairly expressed.
Since I have been away in Europe I have heard
enough, and seen enough to convince me that our
.troubles are cordially encouraged, from a hatred of
free institution, coupled - with-a dread of our power
and envy for our prosperity; They mock' at us,
•and glory in our adversities. The' United States
is my country, and I am for it and its mstitations
against the world. The Xerth is the 'section in
'which I live and.forits people and its cause I will
stand up whilst I breathe.

Our Loyal Illanufao!nrera,nnii,the Union
—The Coining Election.
.One of the heaviest i manufaoturing firms in the
eitY, and - we may say one:of the largest in the
country, has issued a nobly patriotic circular to its
employees, in view of the election next Tuesday.
The ground taken is that the Union and the Go
vernment must be sustained by every voter who
makes the faintest claim of loyalty, and that fac
tious opposition to the Administration wtnnot be
tolerated in this fearful crisis of the nation's fate.
Thi,eirsular will be powerful for good in tho south
ern portion of the city, where its influence will be
mainly felt; we — would 'commend the cuitriotio
example to othermanufacturers whose property is
bound up with the'vreal of the Republic. The text
of the cireulalls astollows •
It is well known to.thswelao have been longest •
in og v employ that we hate at all times refrained
_from any act which might influence their opinions in
poliflear affairs. '
The election which is abont to take plaoe, however,
ots-u-n-ft-m.t.--. 4 4^",uloved from the ordinary
arena of,_piditics„, that, we nieve - r0ti,44..... m d u t y a ,
- p atiiets,..toWisrMW;us lien. in order to aLebi-ite•
results. ';
Every voter will be Called upon to talcile
either on the side of the Government, the' speedy,
. suppression of the rebellion by every means which
that Government may adopt, and the •re• establish
, ment of law and order throughout the country, or
on the side of those who assail the Administration,
1 1 deny the
;abutlegitim of its acts, and advocate what
i• they call Peace
tion of National honor and of Nlttional life.
In the face of an enemy io determined as that
which has plunged the country into oivil war, there
should be no parties; nor cart the employment of
old party terms do aught but conceal the true and
only issue of the election about to be held; an
issue which may be fairly Stilted as a struggle be
tereen loyalty and disloyalty •, -between the friends
of the union and the sympObizers with rebellion.
While it is not denied that among those who
have intended voting the ticket presented by
Hughes and his coadjutors, which they call the
Democratic ticket, there may be many who honest
ly and conseienhou,sty oppose some of the acts
and some of the sentiments of the Administration,
yet it is equally.to..bwaffirmed that the success of
that ticket would bo hailed by the rebels as a sign
of sympathy with them, would encourage them to
prolong a hopeless , struggle, and would weaken the
power of the Government to oppose them—by
withdrawing from it that popular sympathy on
which, it depends for the very breath of-existence
—far more than the most 4isastrouti'defeat of our
armies. .
In such a case, no loyal man—no true patriot—
should hesitate to give up some portion of his per
sonal feeling of opposition to this or, that measure
which has been adopted by the President and his
advisers, in accordance wits the law, as best snited,
in their judgment, to confound the schemes of
those who are, plotting the dismemberment of the
country. -
. Wo, therefore, appeal .to you, eaoh and all, to
look the question fairly in the face as patriots only,
net as "Republicans" or "Democrats," which
names and parties should be forgotten till rebellion
is put . down.
On . the one hand you have - a ticket nominated by,
and composed of, friend's of the Union and the
Government.
On the other band, a ticket urged by men who
have plotted the secession of do's State, and who
113 mpa thiae with those who have compelled us, in
self•defence, to pour out the blood and the treasure
of the country, to preserve our lives, our liberties,
and our National existence.
This patriotic firm is, we understand, the
great firm of Merrick & Son.,
F. W; Hughes
(From the Miners> Jonrnal.]
It seems to us that the cause of -the treason
able purposes of this head of the Democratic party
in Pennsylvania has not been known or understood
by the public. The public know him only as a Penn
sylvanian and as a Democrat, and do not know of
his ,affiliations with the Southern Confederacy.
Everybody should know that he has two favorite
brothers--one . a doctor and the other a clergyman—
livistin the South, and both of them active in the
rebellion. The doctor, Isaac W. Hughes, of New.
bern, North :Carplina, having had two:-Southern
wives, is the father of John Hughes, James Hughes,
Collin Hughes, and Theodore Hughes, all grown-up
young mestand in the Southern army, actively en
gaged in shooting down the young men of this county
in the late terrible battles before Richmond and in
Maryland. These young men have all been educa
ted at the North, and favorably associated with F.W.
Hughes whilst here, and until they left to take up
arms in the Southern Confederaoy. • This Doctor
Isaac Hughes is a large slabholder in the South,
and,the proceeds of slave labor 'lave enabled him
to fuinish a large amount of fundi to this F. W.
Hughes, a d the Records show thathe now holds
mortgages upon ill the property of F. W. Hughes
in this county, for the principal sam ofsixteen thou
sand dollars. See records ofthe mortgages in Mort
gage Book No. —, pages 358 to 367. These mort
gages cover his house in which ho now resides.
Ills brother, Theodore Hughes, has a eon inithe
Southern army. lie has, therefore, two brothers
and five favored nephews now engaged in shoot
ing,doven our forces,- and in-sustaining the South
ern Cenfederacy. yet, this same F. W. Hughes
claims that he is loyal, to the North, bonus* he
claims to have sent his nephew, Frank Dewees, to
the three-months war Now, it is well known
that this 'F. Dowees went into the three months
war most unwillingly. He wont, saying that the
North was wrong, and the South right. But he
then belonged to a volunteer company, commanded
by Capt.,Smith, and as all of the members thought
it their 'duty to go, he could not ,back out. He
has never moved to go again—not for the.defence
of the General Government, nor fer the defence of
the State of Pennsylvania. lie would rather See
the Government sink, under the guidance of his
Southern friends.
But if W. Ilughes was most seriously annoyed
at his nephew,, Frank Dowees, going into thathree
,months service; because he bad groat difficulty
with his Southern krother on account aft,. aid, to.
pacify . his brother of Newbern, he said that ho had
to }remise him that Frank Dowees should not go
out of Washington. Ile tried to got to . Washington
to see tide nephew in the army, , brit cemdinnication
was at that time cut off through Maryland, and ho
could not get.to him. Every part of this statement
is true, and susceptible of. proof. And who can
doubt that these recent treasonable actions of F.
W. Hughes are the result of an understanding with
his brethren of the South. that he was to watch
chance here, to cast the Democratic party of Penn
sylvania for the Southern Confederacy, and they
were to sustainihe South with their arms until that
could. he ,accoinplished. Is there anything more
concluiive than the facts as - above' stated ? Whit
could avail the'Splithern . Confederacy so well 48 to
have P. W. .I.lugbes elected to the Senate of:the
United States, to' add his vote to the stopme of
supplies to the Northern army ?

Vance.
The battle of Antietam appears to be mere than a
nine-days' wonder. On toy return to this locality, after
a lapse of three weeks, I find an eagenteigi to dlicties it,
and a • sensitiveness among staff officers as to the opinion
of the public. They oppose the idea, prevalent at home,
that the rebel army might have been bagged, in whole or
large part The battle of Antietam, as they assent, was
a pitehettengagemeht fought between forces about equal,
with great obstinacy and stilton both sides, in• Which the
Union forces gained a sufficient advantage to remain mas:
lent of the field. hoe's report that the enemy, had
00,900 men in action is tolerably true, according to our
estimate as well as his, and our own forces, actidely. en.;
gaged, ranged from 60,000 to 79,000, with a reserve of
perhaps 20,000 men, which was about the amount also,
held by the enemy. The report that Hooker might have
made prisoners of a large part of the rebel army, had he
riot been wounded, is conildered lie had not men
enough for the purpose. What he might have done with
the .additional reinforcements anticipated by him is
another question. It ie known that Sumner, on taking
command of. Hooker'a corps together with his own, after
the wound of the latter, was tetriporarily driven back,
mid it has been suggested that had Hooker remained in
action,• this would not have taken place. Thie is also
here considered a mittake. .
Sumner, was driven back by, a most furious onset of a
very Leavy mess, and it is thought that Rooker would not
either have sustained himself under the pressure.. The
idea, also, that we should have had an artily of one hun
dred thousand men on the Virginia side, to intercept. the
enemy after he was beaten here and driven across the
Potordao, is considered erroneous. Had that, or any
other large amount, been available at the 'time, they
would have been need on this side to make the .victory
decisive. •

hostile observations upon the proclamation of the Presi

the report, but that nothing is farther from the ideas of

CINCINNATI, October 7, 186
Matters and things generally have assumed theirwonted
abape, and the city is once more Cincinnati as it need to
be. Citizens go about as they choose when and where
-they please, no passes of any kind being necessary ; but
all wearing brass buttons or uniforms of any kind are
rigidly examined, and stopped at any time or place by a
patrol guard, which is kept constantly perambulating the
city. So, for once, the brass-buttoned gentry and
sioulder.etrap, nobility, who bold positions simply to
wear good clothes and loaf about as a spectacle for the
_admiring gaze of their countrymen, have to come . to

MORG AN'S - DIVISION.
This divition, after a long and tedious march from
,Cumberland Gap to the Ohio river, through a country
wild and mountainous, presenting few features of interest
to the eye, particularly the eye of a hungry
after suffering all the hardshipe enumerated in a soldier's
catalogue—of short rations, forced marches, night
marches, continuous marches, DO water and no rations,
and sus ject to the daily and nightly annoyance of a
mounted Enemy, who knows the country well, and could
almost appear, harass, and disappear at will—after all
this, and Much more, the division has arrived safely at
Greenngsburg, ragged, weary,gand footsore. They aro
Snowed no rest, no time to recruit; they are furnished no
clothes, but are immediately ordered to the Great Kanawha
country, doubtless for a campaign in Western Virginia.
Of this division the Rest Tennesseans compose more than
one.belf ; they have Bye regiments of infantry, two regi
ments of cavalry,' and two Drigadier generals. These
men have proved their loyalty and unfaltering devo'len
to the Union cause, by leaving their homee and families
to the tender care of the rebels, thin whom nape more
hellish nor . fierchsti ever wore the garb of mortal min,
to take up arms in defence of the Government. It is
almost ad old and twice-told tale to endeavor to picture
the sufferings these men have endured, and still do en
dure; these sufferings are as familiar to the public an
the rebellion ilself. And now, when a grand move is In
contemplation to rid Kentucky of the rebels, to move
onward and rescue the whole State of Tennessee from
Southern rule, is. it net a shame to place these men—the
very men who are the most anxious to go to Temaceniei
and who will tight the hardest to get there—away up in
mountains of Western Virginia, a country entirely new
to them. Why' not put them on a Ups that mutt go
through a country with whioh they are faillifar,Where
th e ir geowledgeOf the country will be of immense value ?
These men have marched and ' countermarched ' over
every mile of ground from Oamp Dick Robinson to
Somerset, to London and to Cumberland Gap. Fa
miliarity with the country gives a great advantage in
warfare, as has been abundantly proved during the war,
on the part of the rebels, who have always kept their
men, to far as practicable, in the country they were
familiar with.
Not only the Bast Tennesseans, but all the troops un
der General Morgan, feel that they ought to go back on
the Cumberland Gap route. It is properly theft-tine:
most of them have been on it since last fail, and, though
they may be censured or sneered at for leaviog the Gap
and retreating as they did, it is only jnet to say thatotheri
were to blame for that, and not themselves, for they did
bold their position until long efter all communication and
all supplies were out off, and they would atilt have hell
it bad there been any prospect of relief coming to them.
But there.was none. There wore's° many cooks looking
after the puddirg that it did not even get dose. And
now, while they nnetnimonely 'protest against going to
Western VII ginia, they as unanimously ask that the ad
vanee of the operations into Kentucky be given to them.
Foot-sore and weary, ragged though, they be, they ask
no rest, they cult no other favor than plenty of ammani
lien end tt e advance into Kentucky. The deputation
will wait on General Wright tomorrow, and it is ear
nestly to be hoped that the change will be effected with
out trouble or delay. Brigadier General De Conroy, also
of Morgan's division, is in the city, with the same object
in view as the East Tennessean' have.
REBEL CONFERENCE AT LEXINGTON.
The rebel Generals Bragg, Buckner, Kirby Smith,
Morgan, and Humphrey lnarsbail held a council of war
at Lexington, Ky•, last Thursday,to deliberate what

great success th , y had been led to belleve it would; and
that although profitable in many reapacts, as a whale it
was to be regarded as a failure. The rebels are drawing

THE BATTLE AT CORINTH.
ITS DESPERATE CHARACTER.
OBJECT OF THE REBEL NOVEHENTS.
THE RECKLESSNESS OF THEIR TROOPS.
Unflinching Courage of the Union Forces
THE LOSS IN REBEL OFFICERS HEAVY
The Cincinnati Commercial of Thursday contains the
following additional particulars of the battle at Corinth.
The CoMmercial Bays:
From Captain Bands, of the 11th Ohio Battery, who
was present during the bloody engagement at Corinth,
we learn some particulars of the , fight, which have not
yet been made pablic. The rebel force engaged is esti
mated at from 4.0,000 to 65,000, under command of Gen.
Earl Van Dorn. The corps of Generals Van Darn and
Lovell advanced from the direction of Jackson, and the
corps under Gen. Price from Jonesboro. A junction was
effected as early as Wednesday, it is believed. There was
considerable skirmishing between their advance guard
and the division under Gen. Davies up to Friday morn •
lag, when a general engagement mimed. . Gen. Davies'
division was some six or eight miles from Corinth, bat
was gradually premed backdating the day till night found
them inside the fortifications. The fighting was very
severe during that day, and Generals fraokleman and
Oglesby, commanding brigades in Davies' division, fell
while directing their respective commands. The loss
was very severe on both aides, but of the extant of it,
Capt. Bende was unable to form an estimate.
There are two fortifications, mounted with heavy siege
guns, commanding the approach to the tows from the
north. There is a stretch of level land between them,
through which the railroad from Oolumbus enters the vil
lage. Tho upper of these forts, on the left hand, was at
tacked by a rebel brigade, under General Moore, early on
Saturday morning. The brigade emerged from the
woods, about three hundred yards in front, crossed the
intervening ground, which is filled ant obstructed by
fallen timber, under a tremendous fire from the siege
guns, and succeeded in approaching within a hundred
feet of the fort, when thoy.wero repulsed by our infantry,
and turned back with fearful slaughter.
Pretions to this, however,. the rebels had planted two
gems in a position to shell the town, which they did early
in the morning. One solid shot passed through the 'Dahl
ming° Home, and others fell far in the rear in the wagon
Corral The damage done by this battery was slight, how
' ever and had no effect upon the general result of the con
flint that ensued,
Simultaneous with the assault on the fOrt on the left, a
rebel brigade, under command of Colonel Johnson, it is
believed, made a demonstration on the fort on the right,
'or rather on two batteries, Wisconsin and hilesoarl,
.which were in position near the fort on the right, and
between it and the railroad track. The attack
was impetuous, and almoat irresistible. The Infantry
Inprorta fell, back into the village, accelerated by cattle
ler iron] a kitin the rear of Corinth, which opened on
the enemy, some of the shot, however, taking effect in
our own ranks. The batteries poured five round' into
the enemy after the Infantry had retreated, and thin
withdrew, leaving two runs, the horses of which had
been abet.
be enemy having thus broken our centre, pushed for
ward heavy masses of infantry toward the town, where
they were held in check by our infantry, which had re
formed, while the:Rane on the fortifications ploughed great
gaps in their ranks, and swept them do via by hundreds.
In fact, the rebels had rashly placed themselves under a
cross fire of artillery of the most terrific kind. The car
nage is described as awful. 'They were piled up in heaps,
and the ground was literally covered with their dead and
wounded. It was not in human nature to stand such a
shock. Finding his further advance impossible, the
enemy, standing irresolutely for a few moments, finally
broke Into a panic, the men running in every direction,
and throwing away their gnus and knapsacks in their
baste to get beyond the scorching fire of the heavy guns

This ended the engagement for the day. The rebels

Bragg's Address—t-. 4.1 e,obte--of—the
.Northwest.
In the Louisville Democrat we find a long address to '
the 4. people of the Northwest," by Gen. Braxton Bragg,
the present rebel commander in Kentucky. He says
that the people of the South, deprecating civil war, are
anxious for the return of psace, and that they have not
now nor over had any design for conquest, but merely
acted in self defence. He states that they are deter
mined that the consequences of war shall fall upon those
who persist in theiterefusal to snake peace, and that with
the people of the Northwest rests the power to put an
end to the invasion of their homes; for, if unable to
prevail upon the Government of the United States to
conclude a general peace, their own Mate Govertnuenta,
in the exercise of their sovereignty, can secure immunity
from the desolating effects of warfare on their soil, by a
'Separate treaty of peace which our Government will be
ready to conclude on the meet just and liberal basi3.
The address concludes as follows
the responeibility, then, rests with you, the people of
the Northwest, of continuing an unjust and aggressive
warfare upon the people of the Onnfederate States. Aud
in the name of reason and humanity I call upon you to
pause and reflect what cause of quarrel so bloody have
you against these States, and what are you to gain by it '1
Nature has set her seal upon these States, and marked
them out to be your friends and allies. She has bound
them to you by all the ties of geographical contiguity
and conformatidn, and the groat mutual interests of com
merce and productions. When the pariah= of this un
natural war Alan have subsided, and reason resumes her
sway, a community of interest will force commercial and
social coalition between the great. grain and stock-grow

sugar regions of the South. The 14Itsdasippt river is a
grand artery of their mutual national lives which men
carnet sever, and which never ought to have been suffer

the bigotry of New England and the East. It is from
the last that have come the germs of this bloody and
moat unnatural strife, It ie float the meddled° ae, grasp
ing, and fanatical disposition of the same people who
have imposed upon you and us alike those tariffs, inter
nal improvement, and fishing bounty laws, whereby we
have been taxed for their aggrandizement. It is from
the East that will come the tax gatherer to collect from
you the mighty debt which is being amassed mountain
high for the purpose of ruining your best customers and

nism of interest, policy, and feeling, which have been
prettied upon us by the 'Emit, and forced ns from a politi
cal union where we had ceased to Bud safety for our in
terests or respect for our rights, will bear down upon you
and aerarate you from a people whose traditional policy
it is to live by their wits upon the labor of their neigh

the battle of emancipation—a battle which, if successful,
destroys our prospetite, and with it your beet markets
to buy and sell. Our mutual dependence ie the work of
the Creator. With our peculiar productions, convertible
into gold, we should, In a state of peace, draw from

consent, the jewel was broken, and the constitutional
jewel of your patriotic adoration was forever gone.
I come, then, to you with the olive branch of peace,
and offer it to your acceptance, in the name of memories
of the past and the ties of the present and future. With

Difficulties in the way of Peace. -
'From the London Times, 24th ult.) •
When the North feels disposed, or compelled to let the
South depart, a tremendous Question will be propound
ed. What is the South'? Of what States is it to con
sist? To which division, for instance, are Maryland, ,
Virginia, and Kentucky to belong 2 There are 'certain
States which are not reckoned by President Lincoln's
Government among the seceding States, but in which,
nevertheless, a majority of the population would, now
that an option has thus been constituted, refuse to re
main in the Union, and elect to join the Confederacy.
We are assured, indeed, that, if the popular opinion e to
prevail, not only Baltimore, but Washington itself,
must be 'a Southern capital. The Federal Govern
ment, therefore, must be overwhelmed with perplexity
in contemplating the event of a peace. blot only would

IN A BAD -PLIGIET.
[From the N. Y. correatxi . ndence of the London Times.]
The Federal Government has lost more than batt es at
Bull Run md Centreville. It heal. at the confidence of
the people, in itself, in its generale, in its conduct of the
war, and in its whole system of administration. At this
moment there is not a public man, from sir. President
Lincoln downwards, in whom the country has the alight
est faith. Each member of the Cabinet, and each gene
cal in the army, has doubtless his supporters and par
tisans, his toadies and suppliants, who expect to profit
by and through him; but no single individual in high
office, civil or military, ccmmands the public esteem in
any higher degree than of cold respect.
CONVICTION OF RUPELL—HIS SPEECII:
The telegrams from Rape Race referred to the convic
tion of the Ron. Wm 'Wyatt (late Member of Parlia
ment from Lambeth) Avon 'two criminal Indictments,
lithe one of forging a will, the other of forging a deed."
Having pleaded guilty, he was brought up for sentence.
Whereupon the prisoner addressed the court as follows •
My lord, my life has been one of tearful vicissitudes.
In youth I suffered great privations. At the age of 21
I contracted my first debt with a friend la ith whom I was
connected by the most intimate ties. My friends
would not advance me the means to pay the debt,
and my friend fell into grevions pecuniary diffi
culties, and I cou'd not pay the debt I owed. R
was then I risked my soul, and took the first step in
crime. My succeeding crimes were in constquence of the
first. It is true that my father, just before he died, re
ally expressed to me, in whom, after the great fraud I
had ccmmitted, he reposed confidence—it is true that he
expressed a desire that Ishotild take all his property and
pay to the members of his family annuities each as he
described to me. I was prevented by my first crime
from carrying his wishes into legal effect, and at the
time I felt joetified by forging the will of 1858, and adopt
ing the will of 1850 to carry oat my father's Net
wishes as they were expressed to me. I say ' I thought
then I was justified; I do not think so now.' I
em a living paradox, my lord, and no one has a clue
to the solution of It. I cannot hope that I shall ever he
understood. It is not true, my lord, that I em person
ally extravagant. Ido net argue, I simply state the
fact. It is not true that I have gambled. It is not true
that lam a libertine. Those who do not wish to believe
no will probably remain unconvinced. To those who
love me my statement is unnecessary. I tried hard, my
lord, to bring about a compromise of these terrible events
before I left England. I felt that my first duty was not
to my family, but to those persons who had entrusted me
with their money in reliance on my honor and the repre
sentation I bad made. I confessed the whole of my guilt,
before I left England, to gentlemen who had the means of
making it known to all the persons interested in
my mortgages. I remsined in England for a month Red
ten days after that confession. I offered to trarrender. I
Bald, "I conker my guilt. I bad made no provision for
myself, and intended to make none. I wished only to re
trieve the past." . I said to them, What are you going
to do'!" I was answered, We don't believe your state
ment. We think it a •cleverly-concocted tale to provide
for your family and if the members of your family
move one inch, we willindict them with you for (*aspire
cy." It was only then that I surrendered the hope of
bringing about a compromise, which would have confined
the toes entb eiy to members of my own family. I quitted
England in despair. I gained time for reflection; and,
unpinched by ..want, full of youth and strength, and the
capacity of enioylrg life, such as man parts of the world
would have offered.to me,-I have yet returned, a half-con
victed criminal, led by sincere repentance and a desire to
Serve the ends of justice. I know what I have to expsct. A
terrible fate awaits me, terrible to any man of education and
refinement. Bet if I. poeseased those qualities, my guilt is
only the greater. 1 know, my Lord, what I have to bear, I
repeat, it is a dreadful fate, but I have looked it calmly
in the face, and I deliberately prefer penal servitude for
life to existence, to continued disguise, concealment, and
passive remorse I make no appeal for mercy, my lord.
'I only ask you - to believe In my sincere repentance, end
my only desire is that justice complete justice, may be
done. I appeal only to that still higher tribunal far
mercy (holding up his hand)—tbat tribunal whervalone
an appeal for pardon can be fitly made My lord, I
await my sentence.
The prisoneispoke in a clear and firm voice; his man
ner was cool 'and dignified, and each sentence was well
weighed. The demeanor throughout thy whole proceed
ing excited the moat profound attention and astonish
ment.
The prisoner heard •his doom with the greatest comp,-
sure, and on leaving the dock he bowed to some of
friends who were In the body of the court, Some ladies,
who were understood to be related to the prisoner, were
much affected.
