[Correspondence of The Press.)
ST. - Louis, September 26, 1863.
An interesting chapter might be written upon the
curiousyhaees of Western political campaigns. The
lively contest now carried on in Ohio has developed
several new elemente of strategy.
It is the first timein the history of political strug- .
glee that the same documents- and arguments, in
full, have been made use of by both parties. The
Peace Democracy have been laying great stress
upon " , VallandighinVa Record," and have distri
buted it very extensively. .The Republicans, on the
other bend, are using the same document, in ex.
tens°, and are -just as earnest in its circulation. The
Gazette and Enquirer, one the "Abolition," and the
other the " Copperhead" sheet, each morning con
tain notices offering to send any number of copies of
Vallandighera's Record, on, receipt of sufficient
Money to pay the cost of printing - MMen
ties are: perusing' the document with great care.
The Conniaerciel is opposing the Copperheads to the
death, and as one means of doing so publishes in-full
the speeches of. Pugh, Cox, ei id omne genus. Of
course, At reserves to itself the right of comment
upon those document*.
The Erquirer professes to show equal fairness, and
publishes portions of the speeches and letters upon
the loyal side. It takes care, however, to garble
everything so is to. remove all the strong points
againstihe Copperheads. A few of the recent tele
gram's to, the Associated Press were either muti
lated or, left out altogether. The telegram, consist
ing of an extract from the Richmond Enquirer, to
the effect that the euccesie of Vallendigham in Ohio
depended upon the defeat of General Rosecrantsr
army, was either .omitted 'or altered by nearly all
the disloyal papas in the West. Of course, it would
not anewer to lay that statement before their readers:
As far as I can aseertain r the Copperheads feel very
certain of defeat in Ohio, and are working with a
•
heavy heart. The defeat of Bragg's army wrought
their ruin. •
- -
r-I lowa they acknowledge the hopelessness of
their cause-and the certainty of the election`of the
B4iiblicasiticket by from ten to twenty thousand
nejority. They tried -the, dodge of nominating a
mill Ury man for Governor, in the hope of securing
the army vote. The Union party was too strong for
ttlemilind beat them at their own game. -A Repub
licaVdonel received the nomination, and thus the
race goes . on ;.an eagle on the one side and a star on
the Other. • Had the election taken place immediate.
10frei the nomination, there is little doubt that the
Copperheads would have succeeded. All depends
upon the army, the home vote being nearly equally
divided. The Copperhead nominee, Gen. Tuttle,
,
list an excellent military reputation, and the sol
dieliwould have voted for him in a body before the
subject - had been discussed. Now that they have
been enlightened, they will, repudiate him entirely
and vote almost unanimously for Colonel Stone.
Gen. Tuttle!, one thing, and the platform on which
he stands is another. As a man and Soldier he woull
get almost the entire army vote ; as a candidate of
the Peace • EteMocracy the army will go almost unani
mously against him. , , -
The warfare (the political one) is still carried on
in this State with unabated fury. A delegation of
most enormous proportions has gone to ,Washington
to deraand the removal of Gen. Schofield. Think.
of a delegation a hundred strong calling in a body
upon our worthy President and preferring a modest
but earnest request I It is doubtful ifithe President
can refuse them. The prominent radical politicians
of Missouri and Kansas- are in the delegation; and •
if some of them are allowed to start upon speech
making, Mr. Lincoln may make ,up his mind to
lister' for the rest of his term of service. They can•
use - More words to exprees a given number of ideas
than any other'men In America.
Seriously speaking, Gen. Schofield's term of corn
mend is evidently drawing to a close. There is.
much to complain of, though not as much all is
represented by his political opponents. Retween
him and Gen. Curtis there is little choice, except
that the 'weakness of the latter leaned to the pro
greseive side, while that of the former is all in favor
of thwemi-disloyalists. What is needed an this de-'
pertinent is a commander who will shut and seal his
ears to alll politicians or would-be advisers. It is
sad to be compelled to say that the advice of.few if
any residents of Miesouri to be taken without
many grains oi.allowance. The danger to a com
mander is as great from the one side as from the
other. By one party. Gen. Curtis fell, and by its
opposite Gen. Schofield .ieto fall. The whole coml.
try.does not contain a department so difficult to ad
minister as this; -
The :Union men have been enjoying themselves
greatly over the operation of a recent order issued
by General Schofield. It forbade adverse criticism
of the, military policy in any manner that might
injure the cause. It was aimed at the Demoerat,'of
this city, and the other papers that have been him
dling General Schofield without glAs. A short
time after it hid appeared, an article was published
in the Union, .the semi-official organ ,of General
Schofield, in which General Ewing's recent move
ments were severely condemned. The order, was
ceet.. , .--Rzice._of the lath
most palpably.v.i.olet.a.--
Kansas Infantry, at once - preferred charges agellasz
.Mr. Grissoin, the editor of the Union, and he
-was at
once arrested and thrown into prison. He explained
that the article in question was, sent in from the
countiy, ,a.nd published , accidentally. Of course,
cameral Schofield did not wish to punish one of his
friends for violating en order intended to reach some•
body else. He accordingly expressed himself satin
fied.with the explanation, and ordered the release
- of Mr. Grissom: Captain Price refuses to withdraw
the charge, unless Mr. Grissom will make publis
retraction in the columris of the Unice.
The interior of the State is no more quiet than it
was three months ago. It is the same story—a rob
bery here, a murder there, and a house-burning in
another quarter. These occurrences are almost
I daily. In the early part of the Weeke steamer was
0 boarded on _the Missouri, and robbed of whatever
' her captors chose to take. Some soldiere on board
were taken on shore, and shot in cold blood. This •
is the manner in which the war is carried on in
Central Missouri. Life and'property are nowhere
safe, although hundreds of miles from any regularly
organized force of the enemy.
The Kinises border is "again alarmed. The gue
rillas are known to be preparing for another raid
into that State. It is said that they contemplate a
movement into Texas, and are designing to take
Kansas on the way, to make as wide a belt of deso
' Wien as possible. The force is said to be two or
three hundred strong, and well equipped for a rapid
march. The Kansas people are arming themselves,
and preparing to give the guerillas a warm rem);
Lion. The latter will probably , move in a single
body, and so, rapidly as to prevent the concentration
of the Kansas people against them. Though harass
ing them greatly on their march; it is not probable
that these hastily-improvised defenders will be able
to drive batik the invaders.
Quantrell's band has left Missouri and gone south
ward, probably to - join General Price, in Arkansas
or Texas. ' A force was sent cell, from Fort Scott to
interoefit hire, but it did not succeed in doing so.
QuantrelPa departure shows the wisdom of General
Ewing's, order, and' the premises on which it was
based. General Ewing claimed that QuantrelPs
band was fed and Supported by the people of the
border counties, •and that it was necessary to de
populate the region in order to drive out the gueril-,'
lei. The . dialoyaliste denied this, and said that the
enforcement of the order of depopulation would not
drive away the'guerillas. It turns out that the lat.
ter could not remain after their friends and support
err were banished. We shall probably hear no more
of their operations there for the present. The band
that now *Poses to make raid into - Kansas is
distinct from Queffitrell's, and. Oeellpies the tier of,
counties frather north.
The last mail'coach from Santa Fe brought news
• of a renewal of trouble, with' the Navajo Indian&
An engageiriefit, occurred id- the Navajo country,
some fifty miles westof Fort Canby, in which Major
Cummingiyof the istNew Mexicsui Mounted Volum
teem,. was - killed. At Fort West, the Indians
managed . to; !teal', the _entire stock of horses and
mules,) by stampeding them while grazing on the
The garrison was so completely stripped of
saddle animals that . it ; as unable to: pursue the
thieves.On the way the mail-coach was attacked
by some seventy or eighty Indians, -but the passen
ger'', by throwing off all the baggage and mails,
managed: to escape and reach a military post. The
Indians were pursued: and one of them killed, and
one or two wounded. A general outbreak of the
I ' Indians along the entire Santa Fe route is ex
pected. •
From Northern Texas I learn that the Camanches
are as hostile as ever'te the Whites. It is the same
old story of attacks Upon settlers and small parties
of travellers. The rebels are endeavoring to make
peace with the Carnanches and enlist them on their
side, but they are not meeting with much success:.
The Indians can see no distinction to be made be
tween different classes of white men. They are all,
alike to them. The manifesto of the Southwestern
rebel generals, recently published, speaks of the In.
diens as their allies, but we cannot see how they are
to be regarded as such. Nearly all the half civilized
Indians have returned to their allegiance, and many
of them are actually in the, service, Under, Gen.
Blunt. Their. fighting qualities are highly spoken of.
General Blunt ended his campaign atFort Smith,
and was expected;in person at Leavenworth several
days since.' Efis health his been very preceriOus for
some week& and he has been oftimes forced to ex
change his saddle for an ambulance. ,He will need
several weeks of rest before again taking .the field.
His troops are represented as in tine condition, not

EADQUARTRES OPTIC& ARMY, Sept. 26.—A niece
of A. F. Bill, in Culpeper, is very emphatic in her
assertion that that general, with all his command is
still in the "Army of Virginia," and she says, with
a most obliging and gratuitous warning, "they will
turn and whip you Yanks before you have your
eyes openi.mind what L say I" The rebel citizens
here all deny that any of their army has left to rein
force Bragg ; their assurance that "the Confederates
are as strong_ as ever," being rather too laborious
for the occasion. They "protest too much."
Gen. Lee is strongly fortifying all the southern
fords of the Rapidan. '
Yeeterday, froni the summit of Cedar Mountain, 'I
had a clear view of. his whole - line; from Germania
to Burnet's Fords. Not. only down by the bank of
the river but away up. on the hill. sides, his troops
are working like bees, digging rifle-pits, throwing
up entrenchments; repairing stone walls, and in
every> conceivable way strengthening their posi
tion. The south bank of the Rappahannock, at
Fredericksburg, we found to be almost impregnable;
if many weeks are allowed to pass, I fear the south
bank of the Rapidan will be found equally so. By
nature, the Rapidan is stronger : ` than the Rappa
hannock.; The hills aresteeper, and covered with a
more - dense growth of woods, the roada rocky, and
narrow,, and the few open fields are too small to ad
mit of any considerable infantry engagement. 'ln
view of all these difficulties, the public at this mo
ment shOuld not clamor" On to Richmond," unless
they are t indifferent whether the Army , of the To
tomac is destroyed or not. This old army will not
again - right, trust, until it is ready, and then not
until it can obtain a -- footing upon ground where, -
as at Gettysburg, every corps can be brought into
That it can whip Gen. Lee's army in an open field
fight, almost to annihilation; I have no more 'doubt
than I have of my own existence. The difficulty is
that he has always sought these hills to avoid one.
With the Blue Ridge to shield him, he can at almost.
any moment'send two or three corps away to the re
lief of some other general ; and, if they are not
beaten, as in the case of Longetreet, can quickly
bring them back again.
[From the Richmond Enquirer, of the 9 6th.]
The enemy is preparing for a general attack on
the line of the Rapidan, and is massing his forces at
Culpeper. He is also reconnoitring and encroach
ing on the railroad and the river, which indicates a
, determination to fight.'
NAVAL`
NAVAL: EXCITEMENT ON TAR YORK RIVER.—A
correspondent, writing, from Yorktown, on the 26th
inst., says " Quite an exciting, as well as an amu
sing scene, took place here last night. It seems a
steam-tug, having two guns on,passed by here up
the ork 'river, for the purpose of - reconnoitring. On
passing by our gunboat stationed st this place they
failed to give the proper signal, and _when hailed
again, probably not hearing the command, they run
up the red white, and blue light, , and - steamed up
the river: " The men immediately started ashore for
the officers, who were absent from the gunboat at
the time, and as soon-as they could be - got together
they, re turned -to the gunboat, 'and at once gave
chase for, that which they supposed AO•be a rebel
blockade runner, keeping up a continual fire as
they steamed along at full speed in the dark.
"The alarm', gun at this place was Sounded, and
every available man was out; and at hie post, within
fifteen minutes. - In .the meantime the first girmboat
that passed by here so unceremoniously, hearing the
firing, and now and then getting a glimpse of the
other gunboat following along at full speed, sup
posed that the rebels had got a gunboatin their rear,
and were' driving them up the river. They put on
full steam, but were finally overtaken eighteen
miles above here, when a shell taking them in the
rear, they hove to,and surrendered; but, alas ! to
their astonishment and consternation, to our own

REDIARiCS OF ADMIRAL BARRAGIIT
Admiral Farragut said he had to apologize for his
appearance among them. He bad been attending to
business in the navy yard, when he learned that his
worthy host was giving a dinner to the Russian OlL
sere.' "Dressed as he was, he felt it his duty to be
present, for he. desired to meet the officers of the
Russian navy, even though he had not on the wed
ding garments. He had met, one of , these gentlemen.
before, and had had the pleasure of entertaining him
at his own house, in California, many years ago. It
was then and there that he first felt the strong gym
pettily of Russian. toward this country..
".THAT OLD SALAMANDER."
,Admiral Lisovski, again" rising, said': I desire to
express my profound thanks, and the homage of my

and who is familiar to his own countrymen (excuse

FadliriDS' AND fiIEIOIIIIIYRS I am requested by'
the residents of Lewellyn• Park to offer to Mrs.
Rosecrans, in their name and with their good wishes,
this gift of flowers, to be &memorial of what must
be ever dear to a t rue ? and loving , wife—the honor
in which her husband is hsld by his 'countrymen,
for Services to his countay. Mingled' with the
fragrance of these flowers is an incense of *re
membrance, floating in upon all our minds, :of•
Rich Mountain, of Corinth, of .luka, of Mir.
freeeboro, of Chattanooga—fields whereon every
flower has been crushed by toe soldier's foot;
except only the laurel that grows' for the bero's
head; I remember reading of a pleasant festival
of mountaineers, where two mountains standing
near together were united by a festooning cord ,
stretched gaily between. And so to-night, we whose
feet are on Orange Mountain, in New Jersey, but
whose thoughts , are upon the distant mountains of
Tennessee, now link them together with a chain of .
flowers. [Ariplansej This mountain of ours is clad
to-night with the beauty of moonlight, and with the
greenness of peace ; but perhaps those distant peaks
in the West stand at this hour , capped with battle.
smoke. If no be, may God grant, while here the
wife is reaching out her hand to take dowers, the
hand of her husband be lifted into that battle cloud
to pluck a thunderbolt like Jupiter's for vengeance
upon the foe. [Applause.] This odorous offering is
a foretoken, I trust, of a day not far off when the
same fields that are now blighted by war shall bloom
as the garden of the land.
When victory shall come ' bringing freedom, and
freedom shall come bringing peace, among the names
that shall never be forgotten will be the honored
name which you have blazoned in letters of shining
light on yonder green arch. And now this gift, which
is designed to show how dear this man is held by his
countrymen, I leave in the hands of one 'who has
the tender right to bold him dearer still. [Applaum]

HEADQUARTERS ARMY ON THE FRONTIER
Fort Smith, Ark., Sept. 10, 1863.
From the unfeigned joy manifested by tnousands
of your citizens upon the occupation of this city and
the neighboring city of Yen Buren—from the re
ports of delegations who have visited me from over
one hundred miles in the interior, south of the Ar
karma' river, as also from the fact - that hundreds of
true men have come from the niountcins to swell
the Union ranks in the last few days, and still con
tinue to come from whither they have been, driven
and hunted like beasts of prey by Confederate sol
diers—gives assurance that the love and attachment
for the Union is not yet extinct in Western Arkan
sas. Moreover, the bleached and crumbling bones
of hundreds of Arkansiana who, in this locality,
have recently been hung upon the gibbet by a fiend
ish and merciless crew of Infederate murderers, for
no other reason than that they loved the old flag,
and would not bow their neck. to the behests of
treason, is evidence that they weretrue and devoted
heroes, worthy abetter fate.
Many applications have been made by citizens for
safeguards. None will be' issued. The best safe
guard you can have is the American flag suspended
over your premises, and to deport yourselves as be
comes good and loyal citizens. • Your conduct must
be your safeguard. If it shall be your desire to die
enthral yourselves from the tyranny and oppression
to which you have been subjected, and organize a
civil government, under the auspices of the United
States authority, every facility will'be afforded you
to accomplish this purpose.* I leave the matter with
you, trusting that wise counsels may prevail.

The Hcelellm Testhnoulal.
The proposed testimonial to Gen. McClellan by
the Army of the Potomac meets with opposition in
the 60th New York Regiment. The ,officers and
men of this regiment have adopted resolutions
characterizing the movement as a scheme for the
Politicalaggrandizement of Gen. DicOlellan, who
they do not - believe to be deserving, of political pre
eminence. They believe that history:will donative
to the really deserving, think the project should be
•frowned upon by every soldier, and' construe it as
implying that Gen. McClellan needs such an. ex. ,
pression to sustain him in the estimation of the
people ; and in view of Gen. McClellan , s political
associates, among whom "Fitz John Porter is
painfully conspicuous," they deem the circular an
insult to both officers and men.
At a meeting oftho officers of the 119th Pennsyl
vania Regiment, eapts. Dykes, Gray, and others,
were appointed to draft resolutions regarding the
anonymous eubscription circular passed through
the army. '
Resolved, That they consider the movement as an
ingenious political scheme, designed-for some other
object then ass mark of respect to General McClel
lan ;, or, if not so d emagogu e s `
that it will be used by po
litical demagogues as a weaporCfor the accomplish
ment of their unholy purposes.
Resolved, That, while making this declaration, they
are unwilling to believe that General McClellan has
any knowledge of: its-object or purposes.

THB HUBS 0-POLIHH QUEBTION*--,BBSSELL TO HAMER,
Earl- Russell has addressed a letter to Minister
Napier, in answer to the recent "reply" of Rumba.
The following are its gravest paragraphs :
Prince Gortaohakoft affirms-and this view is the
theme of the- beginning and end of his deepatch—
that the re-establishment of order in Poland is de
pendent upon a condition to which he had called the
attention of the Government of her Britannic Ma
jesty, "and which is not - only unfulfilled, butts not
even alluded to in the despatoh of Lord Russell ; we
refer to the material assistance and moral encour
agements obtained from abroad by toe insurgents."
Her Majesty's Government would have been glad
to have avoided this triple, and, instead of comment
ing on the past, to refer only to healing measures for
the future. But thus compelled by Prince Gort
schakofra reference to allude to the-subject, her Ma
jesty's Government have no hesitation in declaring
their conviction that the principalobstacke to the
roestabliahment 'of-order in Poland is not the as
sistance obtained by. the insurgents from abroad.
but the conduct of the Threaten Government itself.
The Empress Catherine, in the year 1272; promised
to the Poles the maintenance of their religion.
The Emperor Alexander-I, in the year q 81.5, pro
mised to the Poles national representation atnd na
tional administration. -These promisee have not
been fulfilled. During many .years the religion of
the Poles was attacked, and to the present hour they
are not in possession of the political rights assured
to them by the treaty of 1815; and the constitution of
the same year. The violation of these solemn en
gagements on the part of the Russian Government
produced dissatisfaction, and the sudden invasion of
the homes of Warsaw, in a night of January last,
was the immediate cause of the present insurrection.
Unless the general feeling had been estranged frost
impala, the moral and material assistance afforded.
from abroad would have availed the insurgents lit
tle. It is true, however, that lively sympathy has
been excited 'in Europe in favor of the Poles. In
every considerable State where- there exists a-na
tional representation—in England, in- France, in
Auatrie, in Prussia, in Italy, in Spain- in Portugal,
in Sweden, in Denmark—that aympathy has beam
manifested. Wherever- there is a national. adrenals.

koff,' it remains to her Majesty's Government to dis
charge as imperative duty. It is to call his Excel
lency's most serious attention to the gravity of the
situation, and th• reeponsibilitY which. it imposes
upon Russia. Great Britain, Austria and France
have pointed out the urgent necessity of putting an
end to a deplorable state of things, which . is (full of
danger to Europe. They have at the same tirae In
dicated the means which, in 'their opinion, ought to
be employed to arrive at thistermination, and they
have offered their co-operation in order to attain it
with more certainty. If Russia does notperform all
that depend' upon her to further the moderate and
oonciliatory.views of the three Powers; .if she does
not enter upon tke path which is opened to her by
friendly counsels, she makes herself responsible for
the serious consequences which the prolongation of
the troubles of Poland may produce.

Concluding a long article, the Times says: It is

two iron clads, which have acquired so equivocal
reputation, would be really allowable if their °tiaras

dence bas been tendered to rebut this imputation.
They are war vessels, and war vessels of exactly the
kind which would probably be bespoken by the floe
federates for the purposes alleged. They must have
a purpose of some kind,'and no other purpose ap
pears to have been conclusively shown. These be

and felt by almost all, that ; the departure of the

either to fix- their alleged character, or clear them
of suspicion altogether. There may be obscurity about
the law, put there Is none about the reason of the case.
We should 7101 submit, if we were belligerents, tathe de

for some evasion, such proceedings could really be

may be dispelled before we let the vessels .

who has just returned from an, 'extensive tour in
Canada, that a gratifying Change of sentiment in
regard to the contest in the United States is already
apparent in that country. Though there are yet
there many strong adherents of the South, the great

decisive Federal victories, and to hope that the
struggle may end in the re-establishment of the °au

ARREST OF A IDLERGYYAN FOB DISLOYALTY;
Rev. Frederick Gibson, assistant rector of St. John's
Church (Protestant Episcopal) at Huntingdon, was
yesterday arrested about halfpast 12 o'clock, near
the church edifice, by a cavalry officer, and conveyed
to the headquarters of General Schenck, ,- accortling
to official orders. The particulars of the case are
thus narrated at the quarters: Some time since 11.'
gentleman. named Johnson, formerly - a member of
Congress,
.addressed' a letter to Mr. Gibson, who is
the principal of the. Chestnut Bill school, stating
that he defined to send his son there, and at the same
time inquiring the terms. The reply from tke prin
cipal was , to the effect that his school was full, and
waded that even if it were not, he would not receive
his Don, for the-reason that Mr. Johnson was a
Union man, whilst all the scholars in his school
were Southern in their . sentiments. Soon as - Mfr.
Johnson received the note, he forwarded it to the
Secretary. of , War, who, in return, forwarded it to
Gen. Schenck: 6n order was therefore issued for
his arrest, andtipon his arrival at the quarters he
was 'questioned: by Col. Platt, Chief of Staff.' Mr.
Gibson said that as a minister and school instructor
he had no political principles, but as a - citizen he
contended that the preient condition of the country
was caused by an unholy war. When informed
that he was to lie imprisoned, he asked whether he,
as a citizen; had no rights. Col. PAU said in case
of his death he would not be deprived of the rites of
sepulture.—Baltimore American, Sept. 28.
