THE WAR PRESS
Our weekly paper, Tin-: War Press, will
conclude its first volume with the number that
is issued on Saturday. We.desire to return
thanks to our friends for, the kindness with
which they have greeted it, and for the abun
dant patronage it has received. It presents
the fullest and most reliable history of the
great events which have agitated the civilized
world, that-has been given to the public.
Correct and fnll details of all the battles that
have been fought, military movements, expe
ditions by land and sea, will be printed from
' our own correspondents, from the official re
ports of generals and the army, and from the
most reliable of our newspaper contempora
ries. Every number contains a truthful
sketch of some event connected with the war,
or a life-like picture of a commander who has
become famous. The literature of war will
be abundantly represented in the songs of the
poet, the eloqucn e of the orator, the fancy
of the; novelist, and the wit of the humorist.
Writers of ability and experience contribute,
to all these departments. , -
In addition to those features, The War
Press will preserve many of the traits of our
-daily paper. The letters of onr correspon
dent, « Occasional/’ which excite so much
attention, from their force and truthfulaess,
and the great accuracy with which they, have
anticipated and illustrated military and politi
cal events, are all reprinted in its columns,
together with articles from The Editor and his
assistants, commenting upon the affairs of the
‘day. ' :
It is our ambition to make The Waii Press
one of the most beautiful and popular jour
nals inthe country. Its style will be high
toned and unexceptionable, and, as it is
warmly devoted ,to the cause of the Union,
and to the support of the Administration in
this present mighty straggle, we desire to see
it in every loyal family. To this end we have
made the most liberal offers to -postmasters
and agents and persons desirous of forming
clubs. These will be found elsewhere.

THE WAR,
Active movements have begun again in Ken
tucky. The Union army, which would probably
have gone into winter quarters had Buell been re
tained in command, is again in motion, and is now
on its way to Nashville and other points in Ten
nessee. General Lcsjcrans has taken command
in person. He has rot, so far, issued any address
to his troops, no doubt preferring to express his
sentiments in actions, not in promises. The
whereabouts of Bragg’s army is not known, hut it
is supposed that part of it has been detached to
reinforce Gen. Lee, and the rest is lying at Chatta
nooga and Knoxviile, or some other strategic point
in Tennessee. The movement of Gen.-Bosecrans
on Nashville will have a good offect. It will re
lieve the almost-starved garrison of that town, and
place lhcm in a position to defy any rebel force
that attacks, and will also give us a firm base, from
which we can move on Knoxville and out the rebel
Confederacy in two, and release the loyal and self
sacrificing people of Tennessee from the despotism
t» which they are subjected. We look for grand
results from General Boseerans’ army, and, if past
performances are any surety for future ones, wo
will not be disappointed.
THE NEWS
Despatches received at Gen. Curtis’ head
quarters, in St. Louis, on the iat test., state that
after the recent success of our forces at Pittman’s
Ferry, Colonels Lazear and Dewey, with their forces
combined, pushed on as far as Bollinger's Mills,
whioh point "is within five miles of Pocahontas,
Arkansas, where they fought Burbridge, completely
routing his forces, and capturing a large number of
prisoners, including many Confederate officers:
Among the latter are Col. Green, of St. Louis, and
Campbell, of Springfield, Mo. A later despatch*
from Col. Lazear, dated the Slsfult., says he oap
tured and dispersed two hundred of Boone’s com
mand;
In the Zoological Section of the British Associa-'
Hon at its late meeting, Professors Owen and Hux
ley had a lively debate on the relations of man to
the lower order of animals; Mr. Owen taking the
ground that man should be placed in a distinct sub
kingdom by himself; and Mr. Huxley flatly reply
ing that Mr, Owen in no way represented .the
real nature of the problem under discussion. This
personal controversy attracted a great deal of at
tention. Mr. Huxley claimed that in the course
of former controversies with Mr. Owen, he had
exposed the mistakes of the latter, and had es
; tobiiahed the fact that the structural differences
between man and the highest ape are of the same
order, and only slightly different in degree from
those which separate the apes, one from another.
In conclusion; he expressed his opinion of the fu
tility of diseussiors like this. In his opinion, the
. differences between man and.the lower animals are
not to be expressed by bis toes or his brain, but are
moral and intellectual No definite result ensued
from the controversy.
A Venice letter, in_an English paper, say 3;

ceding one is beooming more and more realized.
Many important families, who were formerly ac
customed to pass the winter in Venice, bnt in con
sequence of the late , political events had discon
tinued coming, have announced their intended re
turn!” ■
The draft has been postponed until the first day
of December in Michigan.
Our Dope from the South.
The rebel General Price’s son—himself
high and honored in tile Confederate service
—in taking the oath of allegiance, a few weeks
since, exhorted the North to maintain its po
sition & little while longer, insisting that the
grand rebellion was so rapidly becoming dis
organized by the mstitntiOn, on various
.grounds, of minor rebellions within its own
limits, and against its own procedures that
it could not long support its present warlike
front; :bnt must soon fall by suicide if it did
mot fail through sheer inanition. So many as
sertions bt like nature' bad been previously
made, and proved groundless by the rebcliion’a
continued strength, that we were inclined to
shuffle this testiinonyvalso. into the great void
that always exists between hope and achieve
ment, peopled only by (lie vagiio phantoms of
rumor and imagination.: Bat corroborations
of the&e asseitiocsnre ponringih on .all Sides,
and we are now bound to-accept them as the
vcritable'cqncluridns of one who .had-the
amplest opportunities both for observation and
deduction. From recent numbers of South
ern papers we compile the following facts,
confining ©uryattention, for the present, to the
iqtate of affa'rs on tile western side of the Mis
aissipp:, ; .
Nothing can exceed, the absolutism of the
despotic law that contr6ls' / matters in the rebel
districts of Arkansas and the Indian Territo
ries. Indeed, the governmental management
that disposes of ajl political, and even personal,
transactions; in that unhappy country cannot
be called law at all; it is simply the arbitrary
will of a single man acting, at the hod of an
oligarchy, as judge, jury, and executioner
upon all concerns of life, not only such as are
legitimately the subjects of legal enactment,
but also upon those which appertain to the
citizen purely in a personal relation, and have
no influence upon or connection with anything
beyond individual self-interest. It appears
that over all the vast territory west of the
Mississippi, which falls under rebel jurisdic
tion, a single Grand Mogul of a Provost Mar
shal has been appointed—to whom is entrusted
the right of instituting any number of local
provost marshals that his sovereign excellency
may deem necessary for the lightening of his
own labors, further oppressing the people,
and contributing to the glory—««(//»nds—
of the “Confederate Htates.” A cata
logue of the duties enjoined upon these
exuuplary tools of despotism would he sim
ply a catalogue of deliberate thefts upon a'
large scale, and dignified with the title of
“necessary impressmentsof usurpations
without a parallel in the history of tyranny ;
of compulsions unknown to highwaymen, and
death punishments at which Thugs would hesi
tate ; of a general crushing and cruelty that
will form one of the darkest and. most inex
plicable problems for the future historian, and
would now be deserving ot the philanthro
pist’s keouest commiseration, if Justice
did not conspire with Providence to pro
nounce them merited even ten-fold. It
will hardly be believed, and yet the South
ern papers themselves are the authority,
that these petty hirelings of a ruthless oligarchy
are “to enroll and compel to serve as a pro
vost guard all white male persons between the
ages of sixteen and forty-five years, who are
not subject to conscription, and not exempt from
military serviceand secondly, to arrest
and punish “commensurately with the of
feree,” any cne who dares to lisp a word of
critieism upon the actions, military or politi
cal, of the “ Confederate Government,” espe
cially that branch of it hereby established as
an arbitrary end of all complaints. So that,
as regards the lives and liberties of the rebel
lion’.s citizens, the circle of despotism is com
plete : first, the whole available population
remaining after an exhaustive conscription is
formed into a provost guard; and then each
member, as well as every disaffected woman
and old man, is made subject to its imperious
action!
Bxitit is in regard to personal property that
the infamy of this autocracy is seen in the
most vivid colors. All regulations of trade,
and traflic are subjected to the single will of
the chief .provost marshal. “A tariff of
prices is announced to his subjects, to be
rigidly enforced everywhere in the district!”
Merchants are required to keep open their
stores irom a certain hour in the morning to a
certain hour in the evening, every day except
Sunday! And, as if in mockery of the con
fusion and ruin thus caused, the very internal
•conditions ©f trade are arbitrated, and all
vendors are forced “ to receive, in exchange
for all articles of merchandise, Confederate
money, if tendered!”
That these legislative injunctions have not
been empty forms is evinced by the proceed
ings of the Marshals with the cotton on the
Arkansas plantations. By an order, dated last
June, but.just come to light for us, it appears
that all cotton in the, Trans-Mississippi district
was deliberately seized by the Marshal “ for
account of the Confederate States;” and this
wholesale robbery, so far from ending with one
i species of property, soon extended to wagons,
horses, and slaves; to the impressing, for this
special service, of all officers, sheriffs, con
scripts, and- citizens; and finally to “ giving
away to necessitous persons ton pounds of
cotton fer each white person and slave!”
. Of course, these liigh-handed outrages can-i
not he without their (due effect upon the un
■foitunate creatures' thus summarily deprived
of property, liberty, and, in many cases, of
life: though tyranny is so intimately leagued
with power,: that aay expression of resistance
to these luonarchcal decrees can force its way
• but slowly to the surface It must come,
however, unless men have sunk beneath the
level of brutes. Setting aside the fact that
personal liberty is wholly done,away with, and
' life is made the p’aj thing perhaps of a dyspep
tic whim, the prime conditions of all trade are
utterly destroyed, and not- poverty, so much
as starvation, is the necessary result. We
shall presently have a rebellion within the
rebellion. J f tho votes of the North refuse to
support the cause of tho .Republic, the very
luadhess of those whose frenzied rage sought
to destroy the State will be made to contribute
tothe worship of the God of Freedom. It would
be a curious and not uninstructive lesson if the
North, proving recreant tp her divine mission,
should falter and fail; while the South, proving
recreant to her first recreance, should take up
the cause ingloriously abandoned by its proper
champion, and unconsciously put tho victory
into its hands. ' -
Europe and America
Bumois of the intended European recogni
tion of the South continue to reach this coun
try in letters firom London correspondents of
New York and other journals. We attach no
importance to them, for they are merely
guesses at what may occur, under circum
stances. The Cabinets of England and! France
are not in the habit of allowing their policy to
ooze out through newspaper correspondents,
and, for the most part, it- is so secretly ar
ranged, and so carefully concealed, that the
public first learn it, by the completed act it
self. When it is gravely stated, with all the
gravity of personal .confidence, that Lord
Lyons will bring with him “ the determination
oi England, France, mid Russia to recognize
the Confederacy, and that he will also bear an
earnest protest, on the part of these Powers,
against any method of conducting the war which
they may consider opposed to the usages of
civilization,”: we are confirmed in -our doubt.
Of all European countries, Russia has mani
fested, in our present struggle, tho most sin
eerejjsjmpatby with the good cause of Liberty,
Order, and Union; and tho Czar, who himself
has devoted all the energies of a vigorous'
mind and humane will to give freedom to the
serfs.in liis vast realm; cannot but rejoice that
we, too, are determined to" erase from our
scutcheon the black mark which, slavery has
placed there. England ahd- France may be so
foolish as to recognize “the so-called South
ern Confederation” 5 but it is almost out of the;
lines of probability that Russia would join
them in such an act. The Czar, who feels the
highest personal interest in the great struggle
in which treason has involved iis, has never
hesitated to declare, in the most open manner,
that his sympathies are with the North, and
that to breakup our glorious Union would be
to- retard, all over the world, the advance of
the liberal principles which alone elevate and
benefit the great family of man.
It is as iikoly'as not that Lord Palmerston
is playing fast and loose with us; that he has
a double game; that he would annoy and in
jure us if ho dare. But, though the feeling
throughout England is strangely and strongly
against us, that country would scarcely ven
ture upon the risk and cost of a war with
the United States, which would soon follow
her recognition of the rebellions South. The
annual peace expenditure '; of England is
now §850,000,000, and John Bull would
not wish for tho additional taxation which
war would create. The national debt of
England is 94,006,000,000, and it would
be a great risk to increase it. What
effect the substitution of M. “Droi/yn
l’Huys for, M. Tiiouvenel, in the Foreign
Bureau of the French Ministry, may have upon
American interests, cannot yet be seen, i It is
variously stated that M. Tiiouvexel was for
and was against Southern recognition, but it
seems generally believed that his successor
has declared himself decidedly opposed to it.
Ere long, it-would seem, European affairs may
occupy the attention of the nations. Italy—
or, rather, Yenetia and Rome—claims an early
solution of tho. question whether they shall of*
shall not be included in United Italy. It is
notorious that Napoleon has not strengthened
his own power by upholding that of the Pope.
One cannon-bait hastily fired, at this crisis, in
any part of Europe, would be the signal of
another great war. of tho nations. In this un
certainty, and with this danger, is it likely
that, England and France would mnira things
more complicated by recognizing the South?
JLETTJEB- FROM 11 OCCASIONAI. ”
Washington, Nov. 5,1882
The great shock of the New Yoik. battle
has passed. ¥e know the worst; and where
does it leave the future of our country?
Where does it leave; the Administration?
Happily, the first is not in the hands of the
rebellion, nor the second under the control of
their sympathising friends. The great majority
of the people in the late elections have distinctly
declared that the war shall go on till ttfe
Union Is restored ; even those who voted
against the Administration took the same
ground. There ought, then, to be a : unani
mous verdict on -this point. "Nor can
the Administration be fettered by 'the
men chosen to Congress in the late elections
by the so-called Democratic masses. I am
not yet willing to assert that there will be a
clear working Republican or Union majority
in the next House, although I know that .we
have gained heavily in the Northwestem S tates,
owing to the increased number of Representa
tives elected on account of the increase of the
population in those States, most of whom, just
chosen, are conscientiously against the rebel
lion and all who sympathize with it'; yet this
much T do claim, that the' true friends of the
republic in the next Congress will be united
on a great principle, irresistible because they
are so, and that-their adversaries, even if in a
majority, will be disunited, because they do
. not all believe in the justice of. attacking and'
rebuking the Administration in the midst of this
dreadful war. The friends of the Administration
and the war have learned a sad lesson in the
history of their late divisions, and will prove
that they have learned it profitably in the
coming Congress, by' consolidating' their
forces as the Republicans did in the Congress
of 1856-7,-when, by their intense. devotion to’
principle, they elected Banks and defeated 1
Milson and the slaveholders. They must every
where, and instantly, abandon their querulous
course toward their own friends ; in power.
Their; foes in the free States are either fight
ing for a division of tbo Union, or else to re
cover possession of the Presidency, which
would make a continuance of the Union im
possible. Confidence, conciliation, conces
sion, among the friends of the Administra
tion, will undoubtedly give us control of the
next House, as we have of the next Senate, l. -
' Occasional.'-
.English Pictorials.^—We have to thank the
attentive kindness of Mr. 8. C. TTpham, newspaper
agent, 403 Chestnut street, for Vaa Illustrated Lon
don News of the 18th October. This is a double
number with"a supplement, which gives a view, on
an extended scale, of the nave of the large build
ing in which the International Exhibition of. 1862
is held.; It is printed in colors, (fifteen, we be
lieve.) and is certainly the best specimen of using
numerous engraved wood- blocks to combine, so
as to make one magnificent whole. In the paper
itself are twenty-four fine wood engravings. We'
also have the Illustrated News of the World.
with fewer and inferior wood-cuts, but very ac
ceptable for its supplement, portraits engraved on
steel. The present number gives us the,Countes3
of Chesterfield, as she was thirty years ago, one of
the beauties of the English Court.

Pennsylvania; Railroad Company require shippars
of freight destined to any point within the State of
Maryland, or to points south of the parallel of Get
tysburg, in Adams or Franklin county, Penteyiva
nia, to take out a.permit from the Cas tom House,
the extensive contraband trade hitherto carried on
along our southern border having made.this pre
caution neoessary. Shippers must comply with the
legal requisition, or their freight will not be taken

The Rebels Believed to be Retreating to

Believed to be only Feints.
Harper’s Ferry, Monday, Nov. 3— Four rebel
prisoners were brought in yesterday, caught spying in
this neighborhood.
Two hundred rebel cavalry were seen between Hall
Town and Charlestown last night. Oar pickets are re

Several rebel prisoners have been taken. Longstreet

The general impression among our officers is that the
rebels are fast retreating to Gordonsville, and all their
movtmenfs are only feints to cover this movement. They
told the people ’ of Purcellvfile, several, days since, that
they had no idea of wintering In the Shenandoah valley.
They aro suffering much from sickness and want of shoes

of Loudoun and getting in our rear-on Sunday after

and a Pennsylvania regiment picket managed to cap
tore only one, as the cavalry was not on hand.
Prof. Lowe packed upbti baUoon, and left yesterday

THE WAR IN ARKANSAS.
Helena, Ark.,- Nov,-4.—001. Cameron, of tho 31th-
Indiana Begiment, who was recently bearer of a flig-ef
truce to Gen. Hindman, commanding the rebel forces at
Little Bock, furnishes the following, information : f
* The flag-of.truce party embraced Captain Berrell, of
the 34ih Indiana [ Adjutant .Mackenzie, of the 9th lowa,
eftl eievenmea as aneacort. ,-Thek.left Helena-on the*
21st nit, aid took the route to Boe Book Ferry, and oh
the third day theylfwrivedat Brownsville.
Captain Nolan, Acting Quartermaster 0." S. A., cem
mandirg the post," telegraphed to General Boat, who sent
Colonel Anderson with a train on the Memphis and Little
Bock Bail oad. Colonel Cameron [delivered his de
spatches, consh ting of,two letters .from General Onrtis
and one from General Sherman, at Memphis," to General
Holmes in person. . . ?
General Holmes professed adeeire to conductthe war
©n honorable rules of warfare, aapractised among civi
lized nations, end even on Christian principles. Ha ssid
he was filled with horror by the tales of Lavoc and deso
lation brought to him, which he was forced to believe.
Many instances or ouirsges wore cited,'to which Col
Cameron replied that the general commanding had no
knowledge" of such occurrences," and that if they had
bsypened. end the guilty parties coold be found, they,
would assuredly be punished. General Holmes said he
knew General Curtis in his youth, and had expect
ed him to pursue a fair and honorable warfare;
that be, for hi* part, was determined to re
sist the organized forces of the enemy as long as it
could be done; that, unless their independence was ac
knowledged, they woMd fight until they were extermi
nated. Ho said that, while he fought with organized
forces, he suppressed the patriotic ardor of the people
ncarHolena, and restrained them from guerilla war
fare; but, should General Dee be beaten in Virginia and
Bragg fe Kentucky be crushed, the people would act as
individuals, and each mautake upon 'himself the trust
of expelling the invaders.. He inquired if onr army at
Corinth had been reinforced. : On being answered in the
negative, he appeared satisfied and gratified. He said
that on the 22d he tent a flag of truepf with a reply to
Gen. Cnrtis’ former letter, by way of the Arkansas and
Missouri rivers. He liked the ’ spirit of Ourtia’ letter,
and bad at once sent all the prisoners, nearly a hundred
in nnrnber. Tho cotton dealers taken by tho rebel sol
diers had been, or would be, released. . -
, 'Col. Cameron, found three roads leading to White
- river from Helena. All.were well watered and supplied
with forSge. The rebels are etacking'praide hay near
Brownsville, and bringing corn by boats from the Bot
tom Bands to Little Bock. Through the scarcity of fo
rage they* had dismounted a large porffon of their ca
yalry, including the 25th Texas Begiment. The Arkan
sas river is so low as to be impassable for the lightest
.draught boats, while the White river has rison 12 jf feet
since August, and now has 16 feet ,at the lowest. ; s
The rebels at little Bock fetfe informatibn whibh they
credit that Galveston, Sabine, Troy, and=H jnston, have
been captured by the Federate. '* * >

•THE ELECTION.
The result of the election in this State ' being still fe
doubt, neither party is inclined to concede any success
except what is certainly known, and many Wadsworth
men are betting in favor of his election. These bets are
eagerly taken by Ibe Seymonrites, and it seems pretty
Befe to say that wo have lost the State, bnt elect at
least half the Congressmen and have a nnjority of four
or five in the Legislature. This latter fact will' secure
to ue;our excellent Metropolitan police some years longer,
and thlßis encoittaging. A more vigorom prosecution
of the war seems to have been the demand of the majority
in the late elections everywhere, especially in this State;
aud nitny Republicans voted for reliable Democrats in
the hope ihat that party would becomtja great warpartr,
as of yore, aud carry on the war more successfully, and
thereby crußh the rebellion more quickly.’
The Union men elect 14 Oongreaemeh and the Bey.

pleased with the vessel and its construction, which haß
been completed under the immediate’ superintendence of
Mr. George Birkbeck, jr., superintendent of the estab

to split the blocks on the cradle, which was completed by
eight o’ckek, when the key-block, which held the vessel
on tbe launch-ways, was knocked off, and, aide! by the

ARRIVAL Ol' A PRIZE STEAMER.
The English steamer.ADglia, of Liverpool, under com
mand of Lieutenant Charles O. Carpenter, a prize to the
U- 8. steamer Flag and U. 8 bark Restless, arrived at
this port yesterday, and anchored off the navy yard. She
was’captured on the £7th nit., about four miles inside of
Bull’s Bay, by hosts from tbeU. 8. steamer Flag, under
command of Lt. Commanding Charles O. Carpenter and
Lt; Commanding Edward Conroy, of, bark Bestless.
She waß from Hassan, with a cargo of arms, ammu
nition, and other contraband goods, and was attempting
to run the blockade. The captain and crew of the
Anglia were all on board, excepting a few who had taken
. a boat with tho piiotto Charleston for assistance! as the
Biesmer had tint little coal on board. She was taken to
Port Boy a!,-received a supply of ccal, and left that port
on the morning ofthe Ist instant, bringing her captain,
two engineers, and thirteen of her crew. The remainder
were sent north in the Florida, which steamer sailed for
this, port with tie Anglia The Anglia is an iron'
steamer; was built to carry the maillbetween Holyhead
and Dublin, and Is considered very, fast
THE “PIAXO rOPTE-FITIST.”
The Forty-first Begiment Massachusetts Velnnteers,
Colonel T. Chickering, the great piano-forte builder, is
expected to arrive here to-morrow and move imme
diately to the seat of war. ' .
FERNANDO WOOD ON THE RESULT,
Fernando Wood has been talking treason already. In
. bis speech to-day at Mozart Hail, he said some rich
things.
Gestlemkx :' I suppose t will announce vebat most of
you already know when I say that He w York has given
~H'f r '? i vrßejmoura msjority.between 25,000 and 30,000,
' the Fourth
Congressional district my brother Benj-imluhaga ma
jority of r.bont 4,000. [Three cheers for Ben. Wood.
A voice—«Bow’s yourself—how's Duffy?”] In the
Fifth Congressional district, the returns, as I have them
from the General Superintendent’s office, give me 4 800
majority. [Great cheering—” Femondy forever.”] I will
aieo rS'.&te that we have elected every Congressman ia the
city.. [Oheers.] I will also say, furthor, that we have
carried every Congressional district this side of Albany,
including that city. [Applause] And I hopeand be
lieve we have elected , that glorious man, Horatio Sey
mour. [Three cheers for Seymour.] And now, my
friends, this great result is not merely the result of an
election; thore is more in this result than in ordinary re
sults of an election. It is a great and powerful and con
stitutional change in public sentiment—a change which
means that the people repudiate and condemn the corrup
tions BEd fanaticism of the piesent Administration. This
is what I have contended for in every speech that
I haver-made during the canvass. Sines the election
of 1802, when Thsmas Jefferson was elected President
or these United States, there have been m such im
portant consequences as will result from this elsotion.
It eettleß the gnat question whether this country is to
be left in the hands of Bepuhiican leaders,;! A voice,
“•Damn them,”] dr wheiher, through the actionnf the
Democratic party, tho Union and happiness of our be
loved land is to be restored. It means that this Union is
to be restored only by a conservative, constitutional
course.; It means to condemn this Administration for :
swerving from-the. Constitution. It means that the
party in power is fanatical, imbecile, end corrupt. It
means that, if we are to prosecute this war, we are to
carry the olive branch In one hand while we carry the
sword in the other. Therefore it is that I say that no
election since 1802 has been so important in its results as
; this.
- The speaker here dwelt at soma clength upon the ca
lamities of the present war, the loss of life, expenditure
of treasure. &c. , ’
In coEclueion.he said he was not disposed to boast
over his fallen foe. Two years ago the people elected
Mr. Lincoln President-m a constitutional manner. The
rebellion immediately followed. We had given the Preri
dent all the men and money he asked for to suppress it.
We had now tonght this battle for eighteen months, and
had seen our best bleed perish by the criminal errois of
those in power. We had decided to day that they had
abused, that power. As he hod said in a former speech,
we want a cbßDge of measures or a change of men. We
will have such a change of policy, orwe will foll- wnp this
revclntion, commenced to- day, by another that will hnrl
them from the places they have usurped. He thought be
could discern a hope, he could see a peace, could, see a
return of thoee Southern States now arrayed against us,
couid see that the South would lay down their arms, at
least long enough for a convection to. be held, which
sheuld arrange the difficnlty in a eatiefactory manner,
guarantying to every section of the Union their Oonsti
tntional and just rights. If ibis Is not done there would
be no peace;, but, on the contrary, thore would bo a still
further splitting up of the Stateß—Hew England going by
herself. Hew York by bsrielf, and ths Western States by
themselves, &c Therefore, he would say that it was
none too soon that tho Democratio party should be re
stored to power. The Union will be restored, prosperity
will come back to us, and we wilt once more be able to
say that we are citizens of the UnitecLStatos of America.
[Prolonged applause ]

DISAPPEARANCE OF A.SLAVE TRADER.
Joseph A. Santos, whoEO trial for fitting out the bark
Cora has been in progress in this city since Friday, did
not appear In couit this morning. Judge Shipman de
clared Lia bail forfeited’.'" It will be remtmbered that the
bark Cora sailed frem thia-port early in the summer of
1860, under Oaplain LathMn, and was seized September
25, off the coan cf ATricrt. with a cargo of 705 negroes on

sent to tMs port, ar d afterwards condeutced.
Santos was arretti d toon after the seizure of the Oora

in the city np to Saturday night, when the appearance of
unexpected evidence against him persuaded the
Slave-dealers’ Atpoeistion, at Ds meeting on Saturday
night, that it was best to pay the bail, aa the easiest way
to secure his freedom. Santos has ho doubt taken up his
residence among the numerous company of his frionds
who have gone to Havana since the vigorous prosecu

. Impboyements.—That our capitalists
and builders have faith in the ability of the Union forces
to keep the rebel army out of Philadelphia, is evidenced
by the number of hew buildings in progress indifferent
parts of the city. On Chestnut street, below Filth, the
new poet office is rearing its marble head above ground,
and giving fair promise of what it will be when the ma
sons have finished their labors. Farther west, on the
same street, the builders are piling up brick and rnrrtar
and costly marble, on the site of the old Burd mansion,
at Klnth street, as though the war did not threaten
Pennsylvania, and Philadelphia was perfectly ee-'
cure in its career of prosperity. A little farther
toward the Schuylkill, upon the opposite side
of the same thoroughfare, scores of workmen are
btisy upon a new building, to be used for theatrical pur
poses. In the Twentieth ward a number of fine improve
ments are in progress, and while all are of an elegant
and substantial character, some are really cost]? and
magnificent. North Broad street continues to improve,
notwithstanding the war and the consequent derange
ment of trade, and we can easily understand how it would
soon run a race with the Fifth avenue of New York, or
the Beacon street of Boston, If peace were once more re
stored, and the industry of the nation were to bo again di
rected into its natural channels. Bonth Broad street is
worthy of tie opposite end of the same noble thorough
fare, and it continues to improve, despite untoward cir
cumstances' In many pther parts of the city the sounds
of the saw, the hatchet, and the trowel are constant, and
upon ah sides signs of prosperity and confidence 'are
seen.
