He left Nashville on Sunday era sing last, stopped at Tyree Springs over night, and arrived at Mitohelsviilo, Ky., on Monday, -where he took the oars for Louisville. Our cor respondent informs us that General McCook «nd a portion of his corps d’armee arrived at Nashville on Friday, the 7lh instant. On the road to Tyree Springs, he mot with the ad vance of a large supply train, protected by four regiments of infantry, one of cavalry, and two sec tions of artillery; tho train was nineteen miles long. Anothir train, for supplies, started for MifcUels ville, on Monday moraing, which bxtendod .thir teen miles. Col. Hotchkiss, of the 89th lllinoisKe giment, is in command'at Tyree Springs, and was formerly on._oonerol McClellan’s staff. Alt of the houses belonging to Union families, along the road, were burned by Morgan and his freebooters on' Thursday last. Our correspon dent informs us that telegraphic oomruuniaa tion has been "established betwoea MitohelsViUe and Gallatin, the latter place being about twenty two miies from Nashville, The telegraph will be in operation to Nashvilloir a day or two. Large num bers of men are working upon the bridges and tun nels of the railroad to that eitv, hut it is believed ibat complete communication cannot be established before the second-week; in Dooembor. General Rosoerans left Mitohelsville Monday morning, and would arrive at Nnshvillo upon, the same day. Ills entire staff, tnd a large cavalry escort, pro ceeded with him. Gon Jim Stedman, formerly colonel of the 14 th Ohio, is in command at Mitchels ville, which is a temporary termination of the rail road, and a depot for quartermaster’s stores. It is about forty-two miles from Nashville, and twen ty-seven from Bowling Green. Capt, Perkins has chftrge of the stores. . A Union of Public Opinion It is a sad thing to see tlie apathy which is so often manifested by good and loyal men towards the condition of our country. We do not mean to say that these people do not feel the awful crisis into which we have been drifting—that they do not feel' an : earnest, kinging, and prayerful interest in the triumph of our arms and the salvation of our nation —that they would not bo willing to give their wealth, their happiness, their lives, to secure ihe safety of the Republic. Far otherwise. Of all men they are most sensitive as regards their country’s honor, but they content them selves with merely believing their faith, while they neglect the means to advance, and strengthen it. It is not enough that a citizen subscribes a hundred or a thousand dollars to a bounty or a relief fund—that he votes a loyal ticket, reads a loyal newspaper, buys his goods from a loyal dealer, and wel comes no one to his home that is not a/loyal follower of the flag. His duty does , not end hose—wo may say that it only begins. He must ho a soldier in the army of th£ Union, not a mere, camp-follower. He must do what it is in his power to do'to strengthen the great canse and accomplish the groat victory. Our contests are not only in the field of battle. Contests less bitter and fatal, but important in their results, are involved in the peaceful rela tions eif life. W e should all do faithfully what we can to unite and intensify public sentiment in favor of the Administration. • Every citizen can do His part in this work. The enemy is busy in influencing and chang. ing public opinion. In-. Philadelphia we see them diligently comforting - one another, counseling together, gathering strength, and quietly combining to undermine atnl de stroy -the nation. All the splendor of bril liant sceiety-anti thc-fascination of social in tercourse are combined.to accomplish this -wofnl purpoEO. Thoy meot. to'gothpf—n£ and fatal song, or, to be more pointed, it 1 is "the deceitful .denizen on the broad road alluring pilgrims into-the by-way that leads to the bottomless pit. The stranger from other cities, but more particular ly from European countries, is quietly charmed into these insidious and dangerous, but at the santfe time attractive, associations. Ho meets polished and high-bred gentlemen and accomplished women ; he -.participates in the refinements of delightful society; he is pleased and flattered. Amidst all this, however, ho does not hear one word of confldonce in the country, in compliment of the President or the army, or of comfort to a loyal heart. Allis coldness and scorn and contumely; proud lips curl contemptuously as they speak of the Republic, and fair, lips sneer at the Union as something to be seorned : and*detsst-: ed. No stranger can pass through asso ciations like these and not imbibe a pre judice against the country. «Surely,” he thinks, “these people of the United States' have fallen from the proud patriotism of thoir fathers. Their devotion to their flag is a vain boast, an absurd and unmeaning rhapsody. They see their .friends and countrymen dying to sustain their country, and yet to them it is nothing more than the jest of an idle hour. What can be hoped for in a nation when its intellect and wealth and education are thus found aiding its enemies ?” This was the im pression made on Mr.. Tuollofe when he came •to Philadelphia a year or two ago, and similar impressions arc made upon men like Mr. Trollope every day in the year. We can only account for the existence of such influences by the apathy of our loyal men. It would be a shameful slander to say: that the intellect, wealth, and social position of Phila delphia represented the active Secession feel ing known to bo among us. But we are in clined to believe that the small, noisy, vi gilant, and aristocratic coteries of Philadel phians, who profess, Secession sympathies, are, more powerful, because more acute and cunning, than the friends of the Union. They are constantly in counsel. They meet oyer their wine and card-tables, and in termingle anathemas against the country with the most delicious -gossip . and small-chat. They mourn over the dear South' and its wrongs, and make merry with the sufferings and disasters of the Yankees. "Wherever we go we find a shrewd representative of this treasonable class. He saunters into iho club house with his distinguished friend from Bal timore,- and begs'that no allusions- be made to politics for fear of Injuring his friend’s feel ings. He enjoys Gottsciialk’s -Berceuse or Respmdj'Moi, and applauds Path in Trovatore or de Pldermel—but if either trolls a stave or a stanza to the Union, he leaves in chagrin and wonders that artists can so degrade their pro fession. He is loud in his denunciations of Gen. Butler, and thinks all ideas about the non intervention of foreign Powers utter folly and ignorance. He hopes there will not be * w0 _ Confederacies; indeed, he is sincerely anxious about the Union; but if such things arc to be* why then—give'him the South and dismiss New England. He has no hesitation in saying that he thinks the South should be recognized as a nation, that it is a gallant people, and that peace should be at once pro claimed. There are different, grades of this Secession' fecifng. Soma are mild j arid others are extreme. Some believe in the Union, but hope there will be peade ; others denonrije the Union and extol Jefferson D avis; But, however they differ in the details of their belief, this sad, certain fact remains that they are unanimous and bitter against the country. How are we to neutralize this feeling- and strengthen the sentiment of Union that is so abundant everywhere 1 We are not surprised that men should be apathetic on this subject. Their love Ur the Union is as deep, silent, intense, and unostentatious as the affection they bear their children, their brothers, or the heart they have pledged in honorable and holy love. The Union to them is* something so absorbing and sacred; it brings with it bo many dear memories of the past, and so many traditions, far more dear, that come from the fathers of a former‘past; it has done •so much to inspire terror arid respect for the American name, that they cannot conceive how men should prove false to it, and contem plate its overthrow; They canriot conceive, and they do not believe it. Oh, friends, diS - miss this foolish fondness—this charita v iSßSKEre«@** , J«nW.ia9iaafelU»SaS; ble skepticism. Here, around you, in the theatre, the church, the market place, the exchange, the court-house, the highway, some enemy of his country is hoping ter his country’s fall, or listening with glistening eyes to some tale of defeat or mili tary imbecility. He is your friend, you have known him for years, and you take him by the hand. Accept his invitation and go to his house, and an hour’s conversation with other friends inhis parlor, around the warbling piano or over a generous glass of wine, will sicken the heart, and consume any latent disbelief it* may contain. It is folly to. close our eyes.be came we do not wish to see. Let us resolve that in our humble way, wherever our infl'a ence 'can extend, we shall do what we can to counteract the sentiment of sympathy with the South, that wo feel around us. Let no man on ier our parlor-doors, or enjoy* our confi dence, or buy and sell with us,, or even kneel at the same altar, who is not truly, unalterably, and devotedly for this Union. Whenever wo hear any word uttered against the cause—no matter in what place, or amid what associations —although our dearest Mend expressed the thought, we should shake the treasonable dust from our shoes, and leave the presence forever. We should, above all, do what wo can to bring loyal , men together. Libraries, and reading-rooms, I acd dubs and leagues, may serve certain pur- ! poses, but none of them admit of friendship,' audit is as friends that we should meet one another. The bond of friendship and per sonal intercourse is the strongest and mo.-t enduring. Loyal men should know one an other, that the despairing may be en couraged, the faint hearted strengthened, and the stranger welcomed with a loyal welcome. Let our -people think of* these.. suggestions thrown out thus , crudely. They have im pressed many whom . the whole community feel it ; a privilege to honor and respect, and we are anxious that the sentiment should be extended. Let Us go about the work of ' strengthening public opinion earnestly, and good will speedily come. So that while our brothers and sons are serving the cause of the Union with their lives on the battle-field, we are strengthening, defending, and uniting that cause at home. ~ - The Fast, the Present, and the Future; Undoubtedly the tendency of advancing civilization is to sacrifice personal to general interests, to subordinate the individual and elevate the State, to give expression to units of power only as they appear in aggregates of power; yet this tendency which, if uncon trolled, would make particular characteriza tions impossible, by merging everything -in one undistinguishable, mass, hears within it self its own compensation; for the very generalizing process that sinks private advan tage in the welfare of a community, does, nevertheless, iriiply a more intimate union of individuals, a closer connection and a more sensitive interest of each with all, than conld possibly be secured by the old and rough civilizations that fostered the prominency of individuals. Thus it ..happens that, to-day, a blow struck upon any part of the world is felt in every other part, and all the more keenly where civilization is the most matured. All the businesses of life are woven together in a va'st politico-economical net; and if some unusual monster burst through the meshes in one portion, innumerable smaller interests rush out through the rent. The most-brilliant illustration of this truth that has yet been given in the financial history of the world appears in the’ extraordinary con vulsions that.have been occasioned' simply by the partial suppression of a single manufac turing fabric. America throws back their cot ton upon the Southern States, and England and Europe are internally deranged, perhaps involved in serious external complications. If any one imagines that- the cotton-cry has at all subsided—being only the indignant ntte jarce of a first moment of confusion—he en tirely misapprehends practicalfacts, as well as economic laws. The cry never was so loud as it is this very day: such strenuous exertions were never made; inventive ingenuity was never so strained; parliamentarian devices to pacify a half-mutinous and satisfy a half-starved people were never so-taxed. Indeed, if. the matter were not so terribly serious as regards .thp imarrjMtgMgauumiu jrranee to discover cotton ; to get along', without cotton; to find . substitutes for cotton; to force an increased growth of cotton, woiild he a subject for the highest national merriment. As it is, every man is personally interested, because.he may he bitterly interested in the solution of the .great question*! •-» - • The problem is this: England’s wealth is based mainly upon her manufactures, and pre eminent among these supports of her greatness is the manufacture of cotton. So vast is her outlay of power in this direction, that many millions of bales are annually consumed, and much of her -purely commercial business is dependent on their transportation. It would bo no exaggeration to say that four-fifths of this, enormous amount was derived from: the Southern. States. : This is suddenly cut off; and then comes the question, What is to be done ? It is impossible to divert these vast interests into-ahothef channel; the mills-are creeled, the capital is invested, the hands—; whole towns full of people—are dependent for bread upon this employment, and are accustomed to no other; the country is over populated, it has developed this industry in order to dispose of, by some internal means, its surplus of inhabitants; take away this prin cipal industry, you take away the only chance that the people have of gaining a livelihood ; it is simply a question of life and death, sub sistence.and starvation. No wonder that the whole world is ransacked,-and every resource of science and invention tasked to the utmost. So, then, we find both the theorists and the practical economists of England (and what is true of England is true of France, though in a less degree), turning to quarters of the globe almost unexplored hitherto, and to plants al moafunknown. The immense influence which England has over the economic processes of India is wielded now wholly to stimulate the growth of cotton. The British possessions in Madras, Bombay, Bengal, and Coylon, are laid under contribution; and-even the French pos sessions in India are entreated for theirsup ply. Local governors have granted to them the utmost discretionary powers that will con duce to this result. Railroads arc begun in many new directions, and finished or extended wherever they have been started. Common roads, also,- as feeders to the railroads, are laid ont in every direction. In Western In -Bia; from Gnzerat-on the north and Berar on the northeast, to the Nizam’s country beyond Barsee'and Shelafoor on the southeast, every where are facilities, and inducements abnn. dantly spread. Leaving India, Egypt'is the next most important country solicited; and to the land of the Nile special Governmental de putations are sent'to explore, examine, and encourage. . South America is also induced to increase her culture of cotton; and so are the Western coast of Africa, Queensland, Malacca, Cfflna, Mexico, the West Indies; and all the ports of ; Europe are stimulated by the great rise of prices to rummage through the various lands with which, by teeaty or colonial depen dence, they are connected. The result is extraordinary in several eco nomical regards : we find some countries deci-, dedly diminishing, orstopping altogether, their former exports to the United'Kingdom; while others increase their amounts astonishingly. Comparing the quantities of raw cotton 4m ported into England;for the first six months of 1861 with those imported during the first six months .of 1862, we find the Azores send-; ing 8.000 cwt. in 1861, and not a pound in ,1802; St. Helena drops from 819 cwt. to no thing ; Natal, from 14 cwt. to nothing; New : Brunswick, from 13,000 cwt. to nothing; and | Nova Scotia, from 300 cwt. to nothing. In | other words, all those places which have here ' tofore been, as it were,'stopping-places for ’ cotton ‘on its route tovsards England—import ling it, themselves, to export again—have now I lost all their business of this kind trade has ; become more direct; second-hand dealing is dispensed with; the consumer goes directly I to the producer j and thus, by a single natural | impulse, that excellent fend is attained which | shrewd legislative enactments fail to bring to ! a forced existence... But if these few huck : sters of cotton lose, the actual producers gain j enormously, as do also those nations that have : i abundant facilities for carrying. >Of the lat , ter, Holland, Belgium, France, Portugal, in : crease tbeir cotton ©imports from four to Jwo. ~ hundred fold; arid of the former, hosides many . fhat triple or quadruple their former exports, Norway, Spain, Naples, Sicily, Malta, Greece’ of. -Cotton, tsasns; European Turkey, Syria, the Bahamas; and- Mekico, ‘ come for-the first time- into the' market. s Having done, everything- that explorative industry could do to find aud secure cotton, England next turns her attention to see what tentative ingenuity can do to discover some thing that may be substituted for cotton. Here there are met two stringent conditions — the substitute must be so like cotton that it can be manufactured in cotton mills, a,nd that the world will accept, it for clothes. That these . conditions may be satisfied, the fibre must-be long, fine, and pliable, susceptible: to all the common manipulations, in order that it may be converted • into the various fabrics now composed of cotton; it must, also, readily.take dye. These requisites being, found, and a plentiful supply of the new material being se cured, there would be no trouble in minufac i turlng at once, and as before, cordage, fus tians,' lawns, gauze, lace, candle-wicks, etc. Also, there would be no veil interposed be tween England's perception of her moral duty towards America, and her practical relations towards her own concerns. Many articles have been proposed as substi tutes for cotton—some partially approved, -more wholly rejected; but none unreservedly adopted. ‘ All-sorts of experiments have been ; made with flax; or rather, old-ideas have been brought to light, for it appears that the aa ‘ tives of India have for ages been in the habit of converting flax into cotton by steeping the fibre in a solution of soda and citric acid. It has long been practised in Germany, and oven in England as early as 1775. The Frvnch che mists have; also made numerous experiments, partially suceeseiu! —Guy Lussac, BortboUet, Giobert, obtaining fine cotton even from refuse ■tOW.-; But all exertions in the flax direction hate #ot answered, and inquiring minds have turned: elsewhere. Hemp has been subjected to mani fold processes, as China grass, pine-apple! fibre, aloe fibre, even the common nettle fibre, plaintain-leaf, sea-weed, jute, and Jiorse : radish. As we have said, some of theae have had many of the cotton qualities; nettles have bean made into good cloth, the China grasa-seems to have no objection but its -scarcity, j ate: is only a partial failure, and sea-wrack His gratified;, many whose expectations were high. - The result of the whole commotion may be briefly stated as, first, an enlarged insight into the useful qualities of many plants heretofore unknown, but destined, presently, to add ma terially to the sum total ot the world’s wealth; secondly, an Increased activity thronghout all lands to obtain the coveted article, a great rise of prices, a consequent growth of buuuoss, and thus the heightened welfare of tile world, though it may be secured only by merging in the grand result the particular interests of Ergland and France: what is lost in one re spect is mere thau.gained in all other respects. So are the universal laws of political economy asserted, developed, and maintained.' LETTER FROM “ OCCASIONAL.” Washington, .NovjJ.4,lB62. Not many years ago, when the Southerners held sway in Washington, controlliug the social and the political world, I happened, one even ing to drop into a household, and found con- - - gregated there the elite of the slavehold'ng aristocracy. They were listening, with' as tonishment a"ud delight, to the humorous ex pressions and contagious harmonies of a Phi ladelphian, in whom I recognized our departed friend Charles Oabford. I read of his death in The Press of Wednesday, and this scene was instantly recalled to my mind. He had an electric enthusiasm when- he spoke or sui g. an ip finite; varietyof jest, ah inexhausti ble innd of anecdote, ah: unfailing recoliection of the public men he had met, aud a warm and constant love for his own species. .(One of the incidents of that evening I musjt always re member, and that was the manner in which he chauhted .Drake’s great ode to the American flag. Only a few moments before, ho had related with unrivalled comic talent an incident in- negro ' life. which . fairly con vulsed his ; audience with laughter, but when he came to repeat the glorious stanzas of this noble poem, he dropped the mimic and became inspired, thrilling all hearts; by; bis magnificent personation of the great idea of the poet, and by-the patriotic fire that ran ol Arkansas; William H. Polk, Of Tennessee; Sampson W. Harris, of Alabama, and Howell Cobb, of Georgia, and If was difficult to tell Whether they or the few Northeru men pre sent most enjoyed this rare rendition of the greatest published tribute to the flag of our country, - Harris died eight years ago; and of only Col. Polk lives to obey the injunction) and respond to the appeal of the illustrious' Drake, The rest are in the ranks of the enemies of the. Republic. Hew much heart,do you thiuk such men can have in a re-, bellion dedicated to a cause which, to succeed, must annihilate their sweetest memories!? How long can a cause last, not only infamous in itself, but doubly so in- the fact that, if triumphant, it must obliterate recollections of a character. so sacred as to have awakened all individual affec(iohs,;ahd to have conse crated all individual sacrifices? : " V But if they live to destroy the Republic, the genial gentleman, the true friend, the kind father, the - excellent citizen . the honest busi ness man, who loved his own cohhtry so well as to send his own children forth in her de fence, -and was never ashamed to speak a stout, strong word' in her behalf, is [gone. Although I have seen no elaborate eulogy of his character in the columns of any of your newspapers, and it may seem somqwbat out of place to discusshim in this somewhat political correspondence, I cannot refrain paying this humble tribute upon his honored tomb. -Occasional.

The Nbrlhernera wanted a fleet not to encounter the fleet of the enemy, but to take, on tho instant, and keep .possession of,,an uncontested sea. ; They required gun boats for the navigation of the fivers, and flotillas to co operate with the-army.

He haaaeen but tew persons, not only on account ot desiring rest and quiet after the fatigues of the past few days, but from at* ' tending to matters that would not admit ol delay. Last evening large crowds collected in and orennd the hotel, in hopes of seeing the General, notwithstanding it reined hard and the night was very disagreeable; but when they heard it was his wish to have the aif *ir post poned, they dispersed without a murmur, evidently not wishing to force upon him anything that would .prove annoying or uncomfortable.. . . As early as six o'clock the crowd began to assemble, and ,by seven ihe street in front of the State-street House was a perfect jam. Every window was occapled by the fair daughters of Trenton. and the su’roundlng country. Cheers were called for and given over and oyer again with a hearty good- will for Gen. McClellan. All felt the inspiration of the moment, and that they wore Blowing him their app-eelation ol Ms great mili- tary talents, his unswerving patriotism, and his oondact es a man. During the afternoon a deputation of the citizens of Newark waited upon and wero received by the General. A lof y of one thonsand were coming this evening with a band of mnsic [but from some cause they gave up the idea. At sine o’clock the Trenton Cornet Band arrived in front of the bolt!, and opened the s'rehade by performing most Bdmirably, first, pot pourri from the opera of “ Pa ritoni,” second, pot,ponrrl of national airs.

Cheer followed cheer throughout the entire square, la dles wavctl tbeir handkerchief* and joined in the applause. It was with tbe greatest difficulty tnat any kind ot order could bs restored. When the dtesring was bat partially checked, Mr. Dutcher addressed the enthusiastic throng. SPEECH OF MR.

No words of mine oftn heighten your entburf aem or increase onr confidence and our admiration of Gen. McClellan. Superseded in the important aud responsi ble command he lately held, we still have the same con fidence in the hero of so many hard-lought battles we ever had. I cannot recount his senders, end mention his many hard-fought battles ;-yet you will pardon me for alluding to at least two occasions upon which he saved our National Capital.' In Jnly,lBBr, whoa. by the defeat and demoralization of onr army, the capital was in dan ger, the President called him to command the Army of the Potomac.

My Fit'cndß—for I- feei that yon are all, my friends—l stand before yon, not as a maker of speeches, not as a pdliiician, but as a soldier. I oatna among yon to seek quiet and repose, and from the moment of my arrival I have received nothing bat kindness Although I appear before you as a Btrangor, lam not. lam not altogether unacquainted with your history. Your gallant soldiers were with me in every battle from the siege of Yorktown to the battle of Antietam; and here I bear witness to their devotion to the cause for which we are fighting. Here the uproar compelled the General to cease for a tw moments ] I also have to speak.of the ever faith ful, ever true Taylor; thedashing and intrepid Kearny—/ men who have given/ their lives for the 'muJDtensncs of our Government. And-.btfore bidding Ton good-night : ■I-bave this piece of advice to give you: WkUs ike army is fighting, you. as citizens, see thit the wxr is prose', cuitdfcr the preservation of the Vision and the Con stitution, for job/ nationality, and your rights at citizens _ ; It was almost impossible for the' General, after con clndlrg’his short and most appropriate speech, to retard o the interior of the hotel Every avenue was crosdel to suffocation, even the stairways. After reaching his room the band performed a chorus from the opera of “Erntni,” and the “McClellan Polka," composed by the leader of the band and dedi cated to tiro General. Here the crowd called ague for ike General in the most vociferous manner, when he appeared at bis window and*reiteratod bii former words. No such demonstration, political or o.herwtso was ever before witnessed-in Trenton. It was a tribute to a true man, and one worthy of the gallant State of New Jersey and her citizens. Here the ceremonies ended, and the crowd: dispersed without noire or confusion, with three times three and a tiger ; for General McClellan. 3here has been no more satisfactory evidence to the General of leipect and esteem than that given by the citizens of .Trenton and its vicinity. • It is the more gratifying to him because the work of a few hours only, and not being the preparation of many days.
