Romeratits Reinforced from East and West, HOOKER, HOWARD, AND SLOCUM IN TENNESSEE. The Corps of. Crittenden and McCook. (Special Correspondence of Chicago Evening Journal. El iNDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. 29. It is true, aithe Journal office was advised before I left Chicago on Sunday evening, that a large per , tion of the Army of the Potomac is going to Chatta nooga. You may not deem it proper or expedient to publish 'this, but I send it to you nevertheless. The 11th and t2th Army Corps, Generals Howard and Slocum, , from the Rappahannock, have been passing through this city on cars to-day, yesterday, and the day previous, and are, by this time, well on their way toward Nashville. They are expected to reach Chattanooga by the early part of next week at the farthest;[ It is stated by the soldiers that the 3d Army -Corps, from Meade's army, is also on its way westward: 17p to the present writing, in the neighborhood, Of twenty.ftve thousand Eastern troops h'ktyfvfnuised through here, and "stilt they Dome.!'oome. Ti a:.,:d.;after train, column ter column, dash through—the platforms and even the roofs of the cars crowded .full. One poor fellow, who had gone unharmed thrOugh the iron hail-of a dozen fierce battles, was struck' by a bridge, yesterday, knocked down tetween the cars, and in an instant lost one arm and botkiege. _ General Howard and staff, also Carl Schurz and staff, passed through her,e last night. Aside from these Potomac troops, snoop other rein forcements are crying forward to Rosecrons—many more than the publie,ilream of. CONSOLIDATION OF. TWO ARMY CORPS. The following is the general order in the ease of Gen!. McCook,±oul Crittenden, and their eorpi: WAR -DEP.A.ITNEZZT, ADJUTATM GarnmAL'S ‘• 0171(1E, WASHINGTON, Sept. 28 First. The President of the United States directs that the 20th and 21st Army Corps be consolidated, and called ",the 4th Army Corps, and that Major General Gordon Granger be the commander of this consolidated corps. Sceond. It is also directed that a court of inquiry be convened,the detail to be hereafter made, to in quire and report upon the conduct of Major Gene rals McCook and Crittenden, in the battles of the 19th and 20th inst. These officers are relieved from duty in the Department of the Cumberland, and will repair to. Indianapolis, Indiana, reporting their arrival by letter to the Adjutant General of the army. By order of the Secretary of War. E. D. TOWNSEND, Assistant Adjutant General. The Arwy of the Cumberland. Worrespextdenceer the Cincinnati Times.] CHANOE OF LINE OP. POSITION From the superior force of the enemy in our front and the•great extent of line which the Federals were necessarily foroed to defend, after holding the enemy at bay for forty..eight hours, our lines were with drawn within the support of the works which had been throWn up . by the enemy previous to their eve cuatiem of this place. The enemy having been se verelf punislo in the late conflict, were slow in following us VI our "present established line. They no doubt claim a victory in the past severe engage ment., Well, we will have to concede -it to them thus far. They; with twice the number of the na tionals, forded us from a portion of our front lines, and when falling back for a more advantageous po sition,jhe original battle-ground was left in the bands 'of .the enemy, with a large portion of our killed and wounded. But with the slaughter with which the rebeLs were forced to sutler. they will not soon ask or covet another such a case of success. Such victories are anything but flattering to those who have .partaken in the accomplishment. After our retiring within the. rebel works, the, enemy seemed to -reluctantly follow. They held back as if to give ua full opportunity fora successful recrossing of the Tennessee river. But General Rogecrans did not see proper to take advantage of these favorable designs of the enemy. On retiring to Chattanooga, instead of placing the. Tennessee between his forces and those of the rebels, heimmediately called around him his generals, and in a few words explained to them his future intended plans. This place. is to be held at all hazards. We here make the big fight, be the strength of the enemy what it may , . Beyond this point the Army of the Cumberland`will. riot retire while, there is a foe to menace it. General St. Clair Morton, chief of en gineers, immediately set about to put the place in a defensible 'condition for the warm welcome of the enemy. . THE NEUTRAL GROUND. ZS' OUR 'MONT For the purpose of a more perfect range in our im mediate front, it has become our painful duty to burn all the dwellings between the Federal lines and those of the enemy. More than fifty buildings have been levelled to the ground, some of which were quite valuable, and the premises most beautifully orna mented with all the surroundings of comfort and pleasure. But all is now a complete waste ',every thing has been levelled ' and destroyed. Houses, trees, shrubbery, fences, and all, are gone,' made . to give way to the rebellion and the curse of war._Over this now desert waste the guns of the Federate hay complete control. From the embrasures of the 'frowning frowning battlements now can be seen the threaten ing bore of the open-mouthed cannon, ready to belch forth, with flames of lire, the numerous messengers Of destruction and death, at the timely bidding of those by whOM. they are eontrolled,_ sending, un-. timely, those before their Maher who may be ordered fotward to strife againit their fellow-men, and to the support of the most cruel rebellion the world ever knew. But they would inaugurate war, and they are now e.tperiencing the consequences. But the suffering of the innocent, amid these scenes of war, can riever be atoned for—now lxvueelese. home less, and penniless, all, everything, gone, and no place of proteotion butrthe broad canopy of heaven under which to shelter their exposed heads. THE STATES IN REBELLION, The Yankees on the Palnunkey [From the Richmond. Examiner, Sept. 25. 3 The Yankee hog and negro stealers made another water raid up the Pamunkey river on Friday morn ing last, and captured a small pleasure steamer and two pontoon's. The steamer is about four tone bur den, and anchored at General Lee's farm, about ten miles by water above Weft Point, at nine o'clock on Thursday night, and remained until next morn ing, when she commenced getting up steam about seven o'clock. Before she got ready. to start two Yankee gunboats turned the point a short distance below, and in less than ten minutes were up with the little steamer, which is Called the Ellen John son. The owner of the boat attempted to sink her by having the plug taken out, but ,did not succeed, and the Yankees soon-got alongside, coining very rapidly with the flood tide. The owner, ]tlr. Dickins, and Capt. Dick Brook made their escape, but the engineer, Capt. Smack, of Richmond, remained, strange to say, though urged by the owner to leave, and was soon captured. They soon landed a vulgar, low•bred, negro•asso elating lieutenant and . marines, who sought In vain to find the remainder of the crew, tiring shot and shellat random. They sent two negro sailors ashore to persuade General Lee's servants to leave with them, but they refused to go and associate with a Yankee race so much their inferior in social post; tion. They told them if they would go they would make officers, drummers, fifers, &to., of them; but the darkies had seen Yankees before, and knew well their base-characteristics. They took Mr. Collins, General Lee's overseer, and for what cause no one can tell, as be had nothing to do with the expedition of the steamer. The lieutenant was in a bad humor, having heard of General Bragg's, Magruder's, and Dick Taylor's late victories. He shot all the geese, ducks, and a large sty hog, and took them-on board. They then took their departure shelling right and left set fire to a house in New Kent, stopped at West Point, ar rested Mr. James I', New, and carried him on board. They next went up the Mattapony river about ten miles, stopped at Mr. Robinson's, searched his small boat, stole a smallboat, shelled the country, and returned at night to,West Point. We may look out for the Northern papers' to con tain General Dix's omelal report of a grand naval expedition, and the capture of a large Confederate steamer, as he made a flourishing report when they burned, in January last, one of the same size. ==! [From the Raleigh (N. C.) State Journal of Sept. 33. Femur Maar meta SOUTH.—The Standard con tinues to encourage and publish the proceedings of "peace meetings," at which the deluded partici pants resolve that the best thing that can be done in the present crisis of our affairs, is 'to go for the Constitution Emit is , and the - Union as it was"—that ell they ask is again to be"put "man equality with the North"—that we oueht -to have a separate ' State "peace convention" to send "commissioners to Lincoln"—that Lincoln cannot make the "first overtures" for peace, and therefore we must take the initiatiVe—that we ought to have a national convention of all the States, North and South," and abide by their decision when ratified by the people of the - States, North and South together— and all like impracticable nonsense. Yet the Standard pretends to say- that it is not for reconstruction. It essays to show that we are left to' be overrun and subjugated, even, indeed, if a great calamity has not already nearly befallen us, and then insists that it is better to go back to the old Union with our "half brothers" of the North than be subjugated. And yet he pretends to be a friend to Southern independence. He says to the people of the North we will-nego tiate-we will send you commissioners, although you have made no offer to negotiate—although you are invading our country with fire and sword, de vastating, despoiling, Ansulting tyrannizing over our people, maltreating with the most cruel inhu manity and barbarous outrages non-combatants and old men, old women and children, robbing and steal ing with utter disregard of all the usages of civilized warfare. With such a people, with their armies on our soil, the Standard, pays we ought to make the ,best terms , we can—we ought to treat now, in this :very juncture of our affairs; and if you, our "half brothers" of the North, are not willing to give us separate independence and freedom from the vilest despotism on earth, then we 'will accept such - terms EIS will take us back again into your loving and che rished embrace. And yet the editor of the Standard signed the Or dinance of Secession in the midst of the war, ac cepted the C gage of . battle, and pledged himself, under his..own hand, in his,own columns, H the last dollar and the last man," to make good the solemn declaration that this Confederacy shall be free and independent. The blood of our fallen heroes and the sacrifices of our noblb people cry aloud against such wickedness—such shameless apostacy. TITS RESULT [Prom the Richmond Examiner. 3 A battle on the Rapidan is not the ndeessary se quel ot conflict on the Chickamauga. Meade is one of those leaders who risk nothing. He has gained a reputation above his merit by the affair - at Gettys burg, and will not lose it if caution can preserve his laurel. The belief that his army has been rapidly depleted to reinforce Busecrans appears to be, sup ported by all intelligence of an authentic character. No. doubt can be entertained that every available man will be rapidly concentrated at Chattanooga, and that the second act of the sanguinary drama of Tennessee and Georgia is yet tohe seen.. The battle of the Chickamauga is finished. It was an unquestionable victory for the Confederates. Yet there is little rejoicing over it. What are the results, the people ask, except a considerable num ber of dead men' There are others. First of all, the greatest design of the war has been defeated ;, the Confederacy is not cleft in twain ; Georgia and Alabama are saved, for the time at least; = The se• cord and chief gain is purely moral, but it ;is im mense. It has satisfied Europe that the Confedera cy didnet die at Gettyeburg, and was not buried in the Mississippi ; it has proven to the North that the Southern cause has not collapsed ;.that no disabling wound has been inflicted on our organization t and that our armies are still fighting machines of tre mendous power. So far so good. But it cannot be denied that the results are not all we had reason to anticipate from the success in the field. The enemy hold Matta. neOrt and I.4ltet" Teuneomeet wtOgt; vicso the prizes of the battle. It is true that he cannot remain long in Chattanooga. The possession of Lookout Mountain is the essential possession of Chattanooga, and Gen. Bragg doubtless expects to conclude the campaign by receiving a capitulation which will surpass that of Ulm. But another battle must be fought, and another victory gained, before that conclusion can be reached. If Rosecrans can only maintain him. self in the town till bis reinforcement. reach him he will endeavor to redeem his fortunes by an effort o the first magnitude. But then he must be the at• tacking party, and the"Ohoice of position will rest with hie adversary. SLATES, FLOGGED. CFrom the Richmond Enquirer, Sept. 2.3 Several negroes were hauled up before Mayor Mayo yesterday, charged with being at large without proper papers, and ordered to be whipped therefor. Eventful History of - a Soldier W omau. [From the Grand Rapids Eagle. Mrs. Frances Louisa Clayton called at the pro vost marshal's office in this city, on Thursday, with letters from officers, to procure a pass to her home in Minnesota. Mrs. Clayton r enlisted as a private, with her husband, in a Minnesota regiment, some two years since. She was in Rosecriina' army, and did full duty as a soldier, for nearly a year before her sex was discovered. While in the army, the better to conceal her sex, she learned to drink, smoke, chewii and swear with the best or worst of the soldiers.:• She stood guard, went on picket duty, in rain aruP storm, and fought on the field with the rest, and was considered a good fighting man. . . At the battle of Stone rifer, whilemakinga charge her husband was instantly killed by a ball,-just five paces in front of her, in the front rank. She charged over his body with the rear line, driving thhfiebels with the bayonet, but was soon struck wittLa ball in the hip. and conveyed to the hoopital.' Cd'recov ering sufficiently to travel, she was discharged on the 3d of .Tanuary last, and sent North. (lathe way between Nashville and Louisville, a guerilla party attacked the train, and robbed her of her papers, money, &c. After reaching home and recovering fiom her wounds, Mrs. Clayton started for the army again, to recover the papers belonging to her hus band ; but was turned back at Louisville and order ed home. By mistake her pass carried her to Kala mazoo instead of Chicago, and she was compelled to apply to the provost marshal there, who sent her` 'through this way. She is a very tall, masculine-looking woman, bronzed by exposure to the weather, and attracted universal attention by her masculine stridetn ing, erect and soldierly carriage, and generally outre appearance. Somesoldiers, following her rather too ThuredaY.;evening, she drew a revolver, and promptly seattered;the crowd: She was, recog nized as an oldWiriarntance by the keeper of an eating house on Monrciestreet, who knew her before her marriage, and knevr of her disappearance when her husband enlisted, and who provided shelter for her Thursday night. MEXICO. The Proclamation. of General Dohlado. Manuel Doblado, Governor of the State of Gua najuato, has addressed a proclamation to its inhabi tants, calling upon them to resist the French tyranny. This is a document Very earnest and very able, and demonstrates beyond denial the perfidy of the French', Emperor. We extract a few passages of speCial intereeto,lThe Governor proclaims: Force is not right. It is necessarylo repeat this principle a thousand times, however trite it may seem. Force disposed •isiany years ago of Poland ; but the rights of the Polearstill exist, and only burst forth the more brilliantly each time the fire of insurrection appears: E The Emperor Napoleon has had the power to in vade Mexico, but he has no right to convert it into a colony of France. • It has been attempted to found a right , upon the unhappy condition of the Republic and upon its-continualrevolutions. But this is only the sophistry of bad faith, in a bush even its authors do not believe. It is true that we have committed many errors, and that all parties, in attempting to put in practice their re spective theories, have railed, devoured by the revo lutionary spirit. But only the Mexicans have a right to complain of these evils. The right to re proach is exclusively our own. Foreigners have no right to take cognizance of our domestic dissen sions, and still less to bring charges against us for acts done in theexercise of ournational sovereignty. The invader well knows these truths, and it is for thie reason that each step he takee in' the country he repeats the deceitful watchword of his designs : "We do not come- to impose a - Government upon Mexico ; we come to protect the free choice of that the Mexicans wish to give themselvee." This hy pocritical pretence does not merit refutation; it has already been set aside by the nation ea masse, when it laughed with acorn at the news of the monarchy of Maximilian. The good sense of the inhabitants of the country has comprehended that there cannot be freedom where there is compulsion; that the French army is not a protector, but a usurper ; that these phrases, with which it is sought to deceive the people, are .only the set phrases which conquerors in all times have used with lying, tongues ; diplomatic expedi ents invented in order to paralyze resistance; invo luntary confessions, but very significant of our right to freely govern ourselves without the intervention of any tortign influence whatever. For an enterprise so grand and holy no co-opera tion should be refused—no individual should be re jected. Under the flag of independence, for the first time thrown to the breeze by the venerable curate Miguel Hidalgo, all political parties have a place, for under its shadow there is harm only to traitors. To-day I call upon all the inhabitants of the State, whether conservatives, moderados, or liberals, to lend their services, each one in the sphere which may be possible to the cause of independence. Tee. day disappear with political hatreds all the unhappy denominations born of civil war. In the bloody struggle upon-which we have now to enter there are only two distinctions which , can henceforth be known—Mexicans, or Frenchmen. and traitore—in- vadere or invaded, freemen or slaves.' It is 4 not a sense of peril which eounsels me to this invocation to fraternity. During the three years of my admin istration, tolerance has been a practical - truth in the State of Guanajuato, where the same respect and the same guarantees have been enjoyed by men of all shades of opinion, and from all the States. If it were not unworthy of a Government to pronounce its own panegyric, I could recount to you a thou sand acts which testify that the idea of, a universal fusion has formed one of the cardinal bases of my ad . . ministration.- - Further on, Doblado asks : What would have become of Spain in 1808 if she had stopped to consider the number and the strength of the French armies which had been perfidiously in troduced into her principal cities and fortreases be fore she had commenced her glorious uprising? What would Mexico -now be if the father of our' independence had stopped to calculate the immense resources of the crown of Spain, and the poverty with which he wee surrounded the moment when he proclaimed our emancipation? Gen. Doblado acknowledges the weakness of Mexico, but recognizes inexorable duty. "We can not lose our independence with honor without having defended it to the last extremity. Then, and only then, can we transmit to our sons the rights of rebellion against their oppressors. The proclama tion eloquently concludes Fellow-citizens, the conqueror comet boasting that his steps will be marked by peace, by, secu rity, and by abundance, Let us wait a little, and our deceived brothers will be restored to themselves, when they see that all these promises are deceitful, that they are only the delusive utterances of an ac complished trickster. Our destiny-Is-war. Let us enter then upon the struggle with the dignity , of freemen, with the courage of independent Mexicans, and with faith in God, who will never abandon the cause of justice. The future is 'lark because it is &future of sacri fices, but the reward is imperishable, it is the glory I of Hidalgo and of Ituibide. Posterity will judge us all, and when this epoch of passions and of hatreds shall have passed away, it will honor with posthumous impartiality those Mexicans who have died defending theindependence of their country, and the traitors who have coward ly sought to deliver it over to the French, covered with opprobrium and with ignominy.

Mr. - Edward Mathews, who once committed the terrible sin of carrying a parcel of - Mr. Beecher's anti slavery tracts in his pocket, while making a visit in the South, thus recalls the memory of his experiences through the columns of the London Daly News: In February, ISM, I visited Richmond, and, by invitation of the colored minister, preached to the colored congregation. At the close, I found a mob of .white people surrounding the chapel, who told me they had listened to my sermon, and had ar ranged to rush in, and drag me from the pulpit, hal? I uttered a word on the slavery question. They were armed with clubs, and many of them had concealed their faces with their hand kerchiefs. They required me to leave that place in fifteen minutes, under the penalty of being tarred and feathered. This was for having in my pocket some antislavery tracts, written by the Rev. H. W. Beecher. Two days afterwards I passed through the town, on my way to an appointment at Great Hill, and had walked about a mile beyond it when four of the Richmond citizens, mounted on horses, overtook me, and compelled me to go with them, under penalty of instant death. I went. We descended to the bottom of- a valley—an out-of the. way place. They bound my arms, and inquired if I was an Abolitionist. I stated that I was not in favor of the Slaves fighting for liberty, but desired by the press and the pulpit to change public sentiment, and bring about legal, emancipation. I was then blind. folded, and a long discussion was held in my hearing whether I should be hung or not. Finally, very greatly to my relief, it was decided that I should be taken to a pond near by. The bandage was removed from my eyes, I was taken to the pond, and my arms were unbound. I was thrown in five times to compel me to promise to leave Ken tucky and never return. As I steadily refused to do set, it was resolved to flog me. I was bound to a tree and again blindfolded. Then changing their minds, they resolved to try the water again. I was unbound from the tree, and removed the bandage from my eyes myself. I was then thrown in five times more, when, with what of life there.was in me, I promised to leave Kentucky. They declared they would hang me wherever they should find me if I ever came into Kentucky again. I succeeded in getting safely.out of the State. Of all the ministers in Kentucky, Mr. Tree only disapproved of this barbarous treatment, and he was driven out when John Brown was hanged. I will only add that by such deeds the way was prepared for the attempted organization of the man-stealing Confederacy ; and that in the recent battles at Richmond, that very pond, I have no doubt, has been reddened with the blood of wounded soldiers.

The steamship City of J.,ondon, from- Liverpool on the 23d, via queens ,town on the 24th of September, arrived at this por this morning. The dates per the City of London are one day later than those per the Bavaria. The steamships City of Baltimore and Glasgow, both from New York, arrived at Liverpool on the 23d of September. The news ip a confrmed that Mr. Mason, the minis ter of the Confederate States, has withdrawn from England. The London Tines, in alluding to the subject, says: " The Confederates are offended with England for trying to keep in the right. We are sorry for it. The lose, however, is theira, while the relief to the British nation ia great and she will have nOthing.to repent." The Paris Moniieur had created ,a great ogensation. by publishing the manifesto:. of the Polish Natibnal Government, of ~the 16th cifLiliigust. - This was re garded as a virtual recognition of the. Poles by Fiance. A mowded antislavery meet , g" had been.held at _Leeds. Reeolutione were, adopted, that the war in America was shaping itself into one for the de struction of slavery; also denouncing the building of ships•of•war for the. Confederates, and applaud ing the Government for detaining those built. The Tim& "city article" warns the British Go vernment against going too far in stopping the building of ships for the Confederates while fur nishing munitions of war to the Federate. It adds: "Such a course bears too much of a resemblance to the views of Federal politicians." Ea Fierce says that the Federal corvette %ear- Barge, at Breat, will receive the same treatment as that afforded to the Confederate steamer Florida. Each vessel will enjoy the same rights and privi leges. The Europe, of Frankfort, asserts that the Arch duke Maximilian of Austria, has finally accepted the crown of Mexico, and will take it at all risks and perils, even renouncing his rights and prerogatives under the crown of Austria. The Paris correspondent of the London Morning Post asserts that the Washington Government has assisted President Juarez of Mexico, with arms and ammunition. The published address of August 16th, of the Po lish National Goveniment to the Prince Czartorisky, has already appeared in the English journals. The event created a great sensation, and - caused a fall on the Paris Bourse. Many of the English journals regard the matter Re a virtual recognition of the Poles as belligerents. Russia continued4o make warlike preparations. SUMMARY OF THE STEAMER MONIS NEWS. The following is a summary of the news by the steamship Sidon, which left Liverpool on the 22d, and Queenstown on the .23d of September, but which Teasel has not yet arrived. LIVERTOOL, Sept. i:3.—Advices from St. Helena dated the 6th of August; say that the steamer Ala bama bad boarded the strip Havelock off the Cape of Good Hope. It was also reported that she had captured a bark, the name of which was not given, to the eastward of the Cape, and fitted her out as a privateer It was further reported that the steamer Georgia was acting in concert with her. The Er glish journals, with Southern sympathies, begin to see signs of a collapse in the South. Even the London Morning Herald admits that the last news received from America shows that the numeri cal weakness of the South is beginning to affect se riously the operations of her armies. The Times says that the fate of Charleston is vir tually decided, but argues that the capture of that city will not secure what the North requires. The Confederate loan has suffered a relapse, and is quoted at 30 to 25 per cent. discount, under the American advices received by the B ;eamship Jura. It is reported that the new IVlex Man loan will be twenty or twentpfour millions sterling. -- The Times editorially , assumes that the Archduke Maximilian will ascend the throne of Mexico, and that the British Government will aelmorviedge.end favorjthe reorganization of the Government of that country. The reply of Russia to France is published. It is the same in effect as that to England; but Prince Gortschakoff tells Drouyn de i'Huys that Russia cannot permit of provinces to which no international stipulations apply being'even incidentally alluded to. Nailing is known as to the next step that will be taken by the three great Powers, France, England, and Austria, in regard to the Polish question. It is smarted that Count Rechberg, of Austria, advisee that no reply be sent, but to await the acts of Russia. The Paris Petrie urges that the reply of France to liuszia be the recognition of the Poles as belli gerents. Insurrectionary movements in Poland continue active. The Patrie also urges - that .preliminary steps be taken to place the army on. a war footing. LATEST VIA QIJEENSTOWN BY TRE CITY OF LONDON.

Impori ant Extrnetsfromonr English Files. PRESIDENT LINCOLN'S LETTER CONSIDERED IN ENGLAND. [From the London Star. ] The text of President Lincoln's letter to the Springfield Convention justifies at once our distrust of its telegraphic abstract and our confidence in the writer. If it disappoints the expectation of imme diate peace, it confirms our faith in the man who has the conduct of the war. It offers no new in ducement to the Southern States to return to their allegiance—neither does it attempt to placate the Northern opponents of the Federal Government. But it places in the clearest, strongest light, the wicked unreasonableness of the rebellion and the religious duty of all loyal citizens. As a vindication of the Washington Cabinet, it is a master-piece of cogent argument. As an appeal to the spirit of the nation, it is sublime in the dignified simplicity of its eloquence. No nobler State paper was ever penned. It is the manifesto of a truly great man in an exi gency al almost unequalled moment. It is worthy of a Cromwell or a Washington. It breathes the cairn heroism of a Christian pa triot, trusting in the blessing of God upon dauntless exertions in a just cause. It is such as Garibaldi and Mazzini might have written from .'Rome if events had placed them at the head of an Italian common ealth threatened by a formidable combination of enemies to its freedom and integrity. It is the ut terance of a statesman who has nothing to conceal ; of a ruler guiltless of oppression ; of the genius that consists in transparent honesty and unflinch ing resolution. Addressed to friends and neigh bors, to supporters and opponents, it is open to all the world to reads -It really challenges the judgment of cotemporary civilization, though it contains scarce a hint Of any, country but the United States. If it fail there to combine all parties in ardent ap. prove' of the President's policy, it must be because party differences are invincible to logic and per suasion. But, abroad, it must immensely enlarge and strengthen the evetgrowing sentiment in favor of a Government that insists upon making citizens of all its subjects,' and vindicating the supremacy of the national will against groundless discontent and a local insurrection. [From the Daily Nesys.) The incoherent and maundering paragraphs which a bewildered telegraphist gave the world last Mon day as the substance of Mr. Lincoln's letter, could not have prepared our readers for the President's lucid and cheerful statement of his views which we published yesterday. The letter to the Union Com mittee of Illinois is rather interesting than import-. ant, because it is not an address to the nation, but an explanation to parties. It is not an apology for continuous and general failure, it is not the an nouncement of new difficulties or a discussion of a new policy, it is not an appeal for support to a de spondent and hesitating ,community. It could not be any of these things. Its is character plainly ap pears on its face. It a friendly address to the good sense of the main body of the Democratic, and the right wing of the Republican party, respecting some points of the President's policy from which their /numbers more or lees withhold their sympathy. It is the success of the Union armies which makes such an address timely. The President's concluding wards are of peace. His language on this point is firm and calm, as re mote as possible from boasting or vain confidence. tie hopes it will come soon, and come to stay, and so come as to be worth keeping in all future time." And if co, some precious results will follow. "It will then have been proved that among freemen there can be no successful appeal from the ballot to the Millet, and that they who take such appeal are sure to lose their case and pay the cost," Let the people of the United States carry out thisdemon stration' and they will have endowed the free na tions of the world with a gift for which future gene rations will bless them. May it "come soon, and come to stay." THE FRENCH NOTE TO PRINCE GORTSCHAEOPP The penultimate paragraph of this despatch is couched in an unmistakable tone of warning .It ieniains at the same time to the Government of the Emperor to discharge an. imperative duty; it is to call his Excellency's most serious attention to the gravity of the situation, and the responsibility which it imposes upon Russia. "Prance, Austria, and Great Britain have pointed out the urgent necessity of putting an end to - a de plorable state of things, which is full of danger to Europe. Thep have at the same time indicated the means which, in their opinion, ought to be em ployed to arrive at this termination, and they have offered their co-operation in order to attain it with more certainty. If Russia does not perform all that depends upon her to further the moderate and con ciliatory views of the three Powers, if she does not enter upon the 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."

In the course of a very interesting speech, at Day ton, Ohio, Gen. Schenck said: And I may here say, that in the summer of 1861, r foresaw something, of what was going on—that there was a body of men among us who, frightened by the great swell:of public sentiment, had been car ried with the mass of the people into presenting an unbroken front to the enemy who were seeking to destroy us—but I saw here and there symptoms- . thatthis opposition to the rebellion was not to be lasting, that it was, at least in great part, hypo-- critical. Soon it became apparent that the great questions before the country were to be subordi nated to the petty inquiry_ whether this or that party could be put up or down,-= by the current of public feeling.

But again: they tell you you Must not take their negioes. I cannot understand such doctrine. when the rebel assails me, I would have his kettle to kick him, biz deg to bite him, his cow t 6 gore him, and his negro to fight him, in order 'that:l could over come him in the struggle. I tell-you there has been a great change of sentiment in this particular during the past few months. In the Cittr pfMaltimore, the department to which I was assigned, I saw an ex hibition of mob violence some five months ago, when a negro dressed in the United States uniform passed through the city on his way to join his regiment. He was attacked and brutally treated, simply be cause he wore the uniform which the Government had given him when he entered into her service against the rebels. But two weeks since, I saw a. whole regiment of colored men marching and driliirq on a public street, and a crowd of citizens was quiet ly watching them with interest. And this is not all, for in a few weeks more we shall expect to have, in stead of a single regiment of colored men, a whole brigade- How is it that in the city of Baltimore the people are so soon become- reconciled to colored Soldiers? It is because the people of the alavehold tog, States have more sense than the cupid Copper heads of Dalton. The Revolution in St. Domingo. 'THE CRIME OF BPAWISH am. [Prom the Turks Island Standard, Sept. MI The revolution assumes a more serious aspect every day. With the exception of the seaport towns of St. Domingo City, Samana, and Puerto Plats, the whole country has revolted. One thing is cer tain, that St. Domingo is passing through one of those crises, ut of which it will emerge to new life or to helpless and hopeless decay. What is to be the end of the present convulsion we are not able to predict. Neither its remote nor its immediate results can 'be insignificant. From what we learn, the Spaniards seem confident that they will soon suppress the rebellion; but they can imagine such a termination to the present strife far more easily than they can achieve it. We are informed that the Dominicans are commanded by able leaders ; that they are generally well supplied with arms and fittil munition of good quality ; that they have a suffi cient commissariat; and, actuated with the utmost enthusiasm, are unanimously resolved to drive from their soil every vestige of the presence of their op pressors. It is well known that the physical ohs, racter of the island is such that a small force of na tives can easily dispute, and successfully prevent, the passage of large numbers of troops to the inte rior; and we are told that the insurgents are in the beet of spirits, and feel confident of such a reauft.,. Were we to dwell upon these hopeful symptoms, and to argue from promising . beginnings to corre sponding issues, we may be warranted in cherishing the belief that the Dominicans will succeed. Look ing at St. Domingo through the prism of hope rather than the telescope of fear, and in the spirit of an en lightened philanthropy, we candiscem no obstacle ea the progress of that island which a good government might not easily obviate or remove—why human in dustry should not revive, why its rivers ahould.not be opened, why commerce should not visit - fair its harbors and the world witness the glories of a re generated land. - We confess, however, that we do not expect slick results from`the,. present Government. If anything were wanted to complete our contempt the sonars pursued by the Spanish authoritle i e have it in their detestable conduct towardtWolpred people of Puerto -Plata; on many of whiies„persoas and pro vi perties "the most fearful excesseian horrid bru talities were - committed by. S ...• soldiery." Hundreds of persons in no way conic d,,aarwe are informed, with the Insurrection. have hew obliged. to abandon the land of their birth and lover and seek a refuge in this and other colonies; and 14 have well-authenticated accounts of many others who have fallen victims to the unpitying, rage of the Spanish patrols that traversed the ' streets, 001:13, mittiv g the greatest excesses of spoliation and bloodshed. The worst passions of the human soul were let loose, and the cry was, b nod! blood ! blood! and not until two or three days had elapsed did the officers make any efforts to mitigate these cruelties. De fenceless women and children were driven from their dwellings, which became an easier prey to the spoiler and the bodies of those who had been mur dered were thrown into the public streets, and base ly insulted after death. It is not known how many were murdered, but the number is by no means in significant. Such is the ruthless and savage van dalism which civilized Spain had sent to St. Do mingo. Her soldiers would occupy no place in the memories of men, if they had not sounded depths of wickedness beyond the common experience of man kind. Their fame is the fame of infamy. Frightii►l Occurrence in Nevada. The most frightful occurrence in many years took place at Austin, Nevada Territory, recently, and is thus related by the Territorial Enterprise: Among the employees of Mr. Russell, the Miillnalt at Austin, was an emigrant named Cornell, a peace able, quiet person, and very well liked by such as knew him. For the past three weeks he had shown symptoms of insanity, and, although these were not of a nature to excite much attention, it was deemed best to deal with him with caution. He went to bed on Saturday night last about eight o'clock, and about ten o'clock his tent mate fol lowed his example. Fearful of exciting Cornell if be entered his tent abruptly, the man first awakened him by calling him softly by name; he then drew aside the curtain and was in the act of stepping in, when Cornell struck him a blow with an axe, which cut his nose and forehead badly, and almost felled him to the ground. Recovering in a moment, how ever, he ran for his life, and Cornell after him; but the latter stumbled over a rope and fell. and the accident enabled his victink.to escape. The mad man ran down into the midanf the tewn, entered a crowded saloon, and began to lay about him with his axe, bestowing blows on any that came in his The first cut a man's arm badly ; the second severed another's hand from the wrist the third inflicted a. wound upon a bystander's head; also smashed the chandelier, shrouding the saloon in total.darknesai in a moment. The invisible scene that ensued was of the wildest description. The crowd broke with one impulse toward the door, making chaos of chairs, tables, and everything that was susceptible. of being dismembered, and were met there by another crowd, attracted to the spot by the shrieks and shouts of the wounded, who appeared as anxious to get into the saloon as their brethren were to-get out. Somebody in the saloon, in the hope of dis persing the new corners by the wholesome fear of fire-arms, discharged a pistol, which had the effect of increasing the panic at least. But, in the meantime, the crazy man had escaped. As the news spread abroad the citizens, by com mon consent, took shelter behind bolted doors, and awaited the coming of the destroyer with whatever of comfort the circumatancee permitted. After a while a man came running from the direction of Clinton, with a ghastly wound in the side of his head which_bad almost taken off one of his ears. He only begged for water, and was too much stunned to answer questions intelligently. When some what recovered, he said that, as he was coming from. Clinton, a man came running by, struck him with an, axe, and continued his flight without stopping. The man, whose name Dlr. Frankenthal had for gotten, will probably recover. A posse of citizens, armed with- revolvers, started at once in pursuit, but they were too late. Cornell had slaughtered three foot passengers already between Austin and Clinton. Nothing more was seen of him till early next morning, when his body was found about half a. mile beyond the village, with his throat cut from ear to ear—in fact, the head was half severed from the body, the windpipe was cut in two, the back of the head was crushed in, and about the heart were five stabs , - either one of which was, perhaps, suffi cient to cause death. Reports from Washington. [Correspondence of the Tribune. It can do no harm now to nay that the ariange =cuts for forwarding troops from Washington to the Department of the Cumberland have been brought to such perfection that the soldiers who left here on Friday week Were on last Tuesday in a position to render effective assistance to General Ilusessana, who has by 'ads time received heavy reinforce. merits. It is now expected that the first batch of the cir culating notes for'the national hanks will be ready by the 10th of November. Preparations for the printing of the interestbearing legal•tender notes are in a considerably less forward condition. Gentlemen 'who ara accustomed to watch the cur rent of European politics, and are in receipt of private correspondence from well-informed sources abroad, predict that a great and general war, grow ing out of the PAM question, will convulse Europe by next spring. It is believed at St. Petersburg that Russia will then have one million men under arms, and will be prepared for any emergency. It is con jectured here that the true explanation of the ap.. .pearance of Russian vessels•ofwar in our waters., is to secure them from being blockaded in home ports, as was the case during the Crimean war. Tuts DEPARTMENT or TES 18.-It 113 very probable that Major General lieintzelman will be immediate ly relieved from the command of the Department of Washington, and placed in command of that of Tex as, for which he is well fitted by long service there. It is understood that either General. Barnard or General Sickles will succeed Heintzelman in the. command of this department. It twinged that Ge neral Barnard should be selected on account of his familiarity with the relative strength and value of all the fortifications, as they have been located and constructed under his supervision as the - chief engi neer of the defences of Washington, and he tweets*. rily knowsmore about them than any one else. A CIACIOUS THEORY OP TIOt DOICATIOIi OP Tait Wen.—The Rev. John Gilbert, of Clay county. Kentucky, writes to a friend in Frankfort, giving a. curious theory with regard to the duration of the present war. In his letter he says "During the Revolutionary War corn blades had seven points to them, that is, the bladOgrew in.such a manner as to have seven distinct points or ends corresponding with the sharp ;point of the blade.. These seven points indicated the duration of the Re. volutionarY War. Now there are but three separate and distinct points to many of the blades, and this indicates, very clearly to my mind, that the duration of the present war will be three years—the points of Le h:lVi.ca repre3eatiag yeara,"
