WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 5, 1804.
HEW YORK CHI.
Correspondence of The Press.] :
Maw York, October 4,1864.
•AN ECOENTKIO OLD GENTLEMAN .
has at length deceased In this olty, after a most
practical preparation for death. Upwards of a
dozen years ago, a little lot in Greenwood was
fenced, and in its centre .was planted a marble shaft
bearing aloft the effigy of this strange old gentle
man. There It stood, quadrant In hand, braving all
sorts of weather, and almost daily came to the lot
this quiet old gentleman, mounted with a ladder
to-tho foot ol' -the effigy, and. lost himself In contem
plation: of the marble Self. Now the marble has
outbraved' and. outlasted the weather-beaten old
gentleman; and he is buried undo?the shaft which
he took so much pride in rearing; which he watched
and studied with so much reverence.
FINANCIAL ELECTIONEER!!?G.
Humors are current that a gigantic fraud is about
being perpetrated by some of the leading merchants
and capitalists in this city; this, too, in the interest
of' the Copperheads and their candidate. The
scheme consists in forcing up the price of gold arti
ficially, thereby Insuring public depression and add
ing to the chances of the aforesaid party. There
quisite means have already been placed In the hands
of a certain broker and banker, who gave $lO,OOO
for political purposes,’ scarcely , a month ago, and
who expects as a reward for his sorvices the appoint
ment of minister to the Court of France. ( “ Which
ho won’t get It.”) There seems but little ground
for doubting the truthfulness of these rumors in the
main. : The Post notices the report, and threatens
the exposure of the plotters in case the scheme is
carried out.
THE FBENCII MEN-OF-WAU’S MEN
seem determined to lead a life of generous useful
ness so long as they remain in the port. If a fire
oceuis among the shipping, their boats are lowered
away, force engines placed astern, and: the “ John
nies ’’ work with a good will for the extinguishment
of the flames... Yesterday afternoon a Government
hay schooner burned, and no less than 'four boats
attended; having had to row over a mile against a
strong ebb tide. In a previous fire the: Frenchmen
fairly perilled their lives, and were instrumental in
saving much valuable property.' This idea, of use
fulness seems to have.orlglnated with and will pro
bably end with them. A fleet of forolgn vessels
might cut our harbor, and yet It Is more than possi
ble that not a single boat would bo lowered in case
of fire in the shipping. At least, so experience
teaches. .. .
THE ITALTAN OPERA SEASON ' '
commenced last evening. It is stated that ji larger
number of tickets were sold than h'ad aver been pre
viously disposed of for an opening night. Upon
this occasion the cver-favorite “Trovatore” consti

mainly of new importations from European cities.
Expectation denominates this in perspective as the

late, since the outrageous inflation of gold, will
result in a fierce appetite for finery; and new toi

Evangelical Lutheran Church of our fathers, the
Word of God as contained In the canonical Scrip
tures of the Old and New Testaments as the only
infallible rule of faith and practice, and the Augs
burg Confession as a correct exhibition of the fun
damental doctrines of the Divine Word, and of tho
faith of our Church, founded upon that Word, may
at any: time become associated with the General
Synod; by complying with the requirements of this
Constitution, and sending delegates to its Conven

lution::
Eesolveil, That the waits of the Pennsylvania Col

Philadelphia, October 4th, 1861.
Rebel . Jackals.—lt has been ascertained by
Colonel Wells, provost marshal of the southern de
fences of Washington, that the rebels have been for
some time busily engaged in digging up dead bodies
on the battle-fields of the Wilderness, and stripping
off the clothing to .be sold for, rags. It had been
known that: trains were running from Richmond to
a point a fewmlies below Fredericksburg, and much
speculation arose upon the probable object of rail
road operations In that vicinity. It turns out that
‘hose trains are run for tho purpose of transporting
to Richmond the debris of the Wilderness 'battles,
old iron; bags. &o. We learn that Union and rebel,
bodies aresboth exhum ed by these jackals and hye
nas, and their garments stolen. The business of
those trains is dirocted by commissioned officers of
tho rebel army.

THeJIAHYANCE ON THE ; right—THE BOaiTtON
GAINED—CfAPTmtR OF TEE HUH OUSTS—THE RE
BEL WORKS. • • . ;
' The correspondent of the New York TVorld, writ
ing from the headquarters of tiie army, October 1,
says: ■■ .... ’ ■> ■
The long-contemplated, earnestly-hoped-for, and
•feverlshly.exi)ected “Ontolilchmond” of the Army
of tho Potomac has at length been commenced, ana
the progress made: on' the right: carries us within
about six miles of that devoted city, while our, left
has been flung\around and now flanks Petersburg on
the west, approaching to within a Bhort • distance of
the Southside Railroad. ,
The advance of the right was initiated by the
10th Corps, which had been occupying tho front
against Petersburg, on the south side of the Appo
mattox, quietly withdrawing from its position and
moving on Wednesday night last under cover of
darkness to the north side of the James river at
Deep Bottom, the 18th' Corps having meanwhile
crossed at Hiker’s Landing. After crossing the ri
ver the 10th Corps, Major General Blrney com-'
manding, moved up the Now Market road, and the
18th up the Yerlna road, intending to form a junc
tion where these roads intersect in front of the re
bel works, about seven miles from RichmUhd, where
they would form a line of battle, with the 18th
Corps on the left, and the Roth Corps on the right.
Kautz’s cavalry division, aftersoourlng the country
in front of the two corps, took its position'on the left
i.flank, and moved forward along the Darbytown
road, thus effectually providing against any possi
bility of a sortie and flank attack on that side, while
the right flank was: equally well protected by the
gunboats and the river. Nothing opposed the on
ward movement of this force until they were about
entering the pine woods on' the north side of the
Alkens farm, when'their skirmishers or advancing
guard met the rebel pickets. These formed but a
slight obstruction, being speedily; driven back and
induced to seek shelter behind the front line of rebel
works, which commence at the river on Drury’s
Bluff, and run northwardly for some three miles,
When they bear westwardly until they connect with
the line which forms the northern defences of Rich
mond?: ' ' ‘ '
Abont 8 o’clock yesterday morning the 18th Corps
having approached to within about half a mile of
the rebel work, emerged from the woods and charged
across tho field. The Ist Division, which was in the
centre, succeededrin driving the rebels from the
portion or the works in their front, and not only
captured the works, but took sixteen guns from the
enemy, five of which were heavy siege guns. This
division also suffered severely In klUad and wound
ed, losing In the aggregate about five hundred men
killed, wounded, and missin g. The 2d Division of
the 18th Corps, which was on the left near the
. James river, also charged upon and succeeded in
carrying the works, but found it impracticable to
hold all the line, as .that nearest the river was ex
posed to an enfiladJngfirefrom the rebel gunboats as
well as to the fireftom the second line of the enemy’s
works, to which their discomfited forces had with
drawn. After gallantly striving for several hours
1 to maintain their position, their left waß compelled
to withdraw from that portion of the line nearest
the river, when they fell back to the woods forming
an angle with their right, and continued tooceu*
py the works they had captured.
L At the angle where the two portions of the 2d Di
vision joined, our army held one side of a redoubt
and the rebels the: opposite side, and the'-men on
neither side dared show their heads above the para
pets, lest'they should become victims to the accu
rate aim of the enemy on the opposite side. They
still: continue to occupy this position, and both par
ties are unwilling to abandon the work without an
other contest, which maybe expected at any mo
>mebt. :' : :
"While the 18th Corps was performing the feats we
have mentioned Gen. Payne’s negro division of the
10th Corps moved up the New Market road, and be
tween 9 audio o’clock charged on the enemy’s rifle
pits on theSrlght of the 18th Corps; with bayonets,
and succeeded in carrying the works, but not with
out a heavy loss to themselves. Gen. Terrill’s
division or the 18th Corps next carried the works on
the right of the negroes, thus giving us the entire
outer line of rebel defences on this side of Richmond.
On the left of the 10th Corps Foster’s division came
up rapidly and charged twice on the second line of
rohel works, but diclnot succeed in effecting a iodg
ment within them, though they maintained the posi
tion they had gained on tfie first lino.
The result oi this fighting may be summed up in
the statement that we gained the enemy’s outer lino
of works from about a mile and a half from the
river, opposite Drury’s Bluff, to a point on the Cen
tral road nearly due northeast from there.
j£ "While the 2d Division was "engaged, two batteries
of heavy artillery—Battery A, .Lieut. Stit, of the
Ist: Pennsylvania, and Battery F, Lieut. Simpson,
of the Ist Rhode Island—took a position in their
rear, to cover their retreat, when a shell. from one
of the rebel gunboats struck in among them, break
ing one caisson to pieces, killing fifteen horses, and
wounding several men. The 3d Division of the 18th
Corps, which ’ had the right of that corps, charged
and succeeded in carryfngthe rifle-pits of the rebels’
outer line in their front with but little loss them
selves. \
The heaviest loss Incurred was in the 2d Division
of the 18th Corps, and in Payne’s negro division of
the loth Corps. This latter division charged half a
mile across an open field without: firing a shot, and'
carried the rebel works at the point of the bayonet.
As was to have been expected, from the' fact that
they were so long exposed to the rebel fire, their
loss was very heavy; and a large number of their
dead are still lying on the field to-day.
The aggregate loss In the loth Corps Is between
1,000 and I,2oo,'and lnthe IBth between 800 and 1,000
In killed, wounded, and missing. Of this number
about 200 wore captured, 800 wounded, 600 killed,
and the remainder not yet accounted for.
The line of works taken from the enemy are those'
on their extreme front. Behind these they have
two very strong lines, defended by double rows of
abattis, and mounted with heavy guns, the capture
of which; If attempted, will 'require a long ansl ar
duous siege, and be attended; no doubt, with an Im
mense sacrifice of life. Still, from the. present dis
position of our’forces, it would seem that even
these difficulties are not regarded'as insurmount
able, or as being ah insuperable obstacle against
- the approach of ouE,troops. : : Among the rebel gun
boats which aided in the efforts to repulse' our
troops was the new rebel ram' Yirginia, which Is
just completed. She is armed withfoiir fourteen-inch
columbiads, is represented as- being very strongly
built, and completely encased in Iron, and 'steel
armor, and constituting a truly formidable monster.

TROOP—ALL ■ THE RICHMOND PAPERS SUS
.. TENDED..
The special correspondent of the New York Times,
writing from Army .Headquarters on Saturday last,
says:.'
•For purely military .reasons there was no disposi
tion yesterday, on the part of Gen. Butler, to ad
vance the lines of his army, and the day might have
passed uneventfully, had not the enemy assumed
the offensive. Gllled almost to, desperation : by the
sudden advantage we .-have won—an advantage
which gives us a position almostwlthin.the purlieus
of the rebel capital—Lee moved up heavy reinforce
ments from the Petersburg front to oppose us. These
reinforcements were composed of Heth’s, Hope’s, and
Field’s divisions, and WUlcox’s brigade. .
. At about 2 o’clock in the afternoon they made an
Impetuous attack upon the right of the 18th Corps,
opposite the fortification which was taken from
them on Thursday, in the hope of driving-us out.
Formed in three long lines they advanced to the
charge; and were met by a murderous fire which
sent them staggering back, leaving plies of dead
and dying on the field. Rallying again, they re
newed the onset, and with such determination that
their advance came within two hundred yards of the
work./ Our men again succeeded in repulsing them,
and the slaughter was terrible. Major General
Weitzel, who Rad only taken command of the 18th
Corps a few hours before the assault, signally
inaugurated his assumption of the position in
the result of this affair. As the broken columns,
paralyzed by the shock of their reception, fled
back to gain .the shelter of their .works,'he
promptly pushed forward a flanking force, which
managed to Cut off the retreat of nearly three
hundred or the panic-stricken men, and’ they
swooped them in like fish into a net. Five battle
flags were also captured. Amongthc.prisonerswere
eighteen commissioned officers, and last night they
were brought to these headquarters, on their way
to the rear. These officers, many of whom are vete
rans, unite in saying that they never before experi
enced suoh a destructive musketry fire: Our men
did not fall into the common praotice of firing high
andhafmlessly over the heads of their assailants,
but almost every bullet brought down a man, and
the ground was strewn with victims to theli: unerr
ing aim; On our part little artillery was used, but
the rebels kept .up, an incessant fire of big guns
during the assault, not'alone from the forts, but
likewise from their Iron-clads in the. James,-near
Drewry’s Bluff. The loft division of the 10th Corps
was partially engaged in this aff air, but the brunt
Of It fell upon the 18th. ;
Our casualties were; comparatively small, neces
sarily so, as we were behind our works. I'am
grieved to Bay, however, that we.had another brave
general put kors du combat. A fragment of shell
struck Gen. Stannard, commanding the .'first' divi
sion of the 18th Corps, in the left arm, mhkffig am
putation necessary.
The clouds boded rain all 'through Friday, and
about 6 o’clock It came in torrents. So it continued
all night, and throughout to-day. Everything is
covered with liquid mud. But the travelling might
get worse, and as a preventive the Engineer Corps
are engaged in corduroying and repairing gene
rally.
A few prisoners were taken to-day (Saturday)
on onr right. Some of them were merchants in
Richmond until our irruption on Thursday morn
ing. Then they rushed themselves Into an impro
vised cavalry force, and took to independent scout
ing. Their career as gallant troopers was brief and
somewhat inglorious. One of them Innocently asked
if the United States Government would reimburse
him for the loss of Ms horse and equipments. ! •
One of the prisoners was a man named Libby,
Who has had a good deal to do with the infamous
prison which bears his name. He had the sutlership
of the prisoners, and from air accounts bled them
freely, growing ileh cnoughupon his extortions to
purchase a fine arm upon tMs line of operations.
Libby narrated with glee,.to-day, that In one of our
cavalry raids a trooper came to his house and car
ried off a gun which was lying on a box wherein he
had 41.700 in gold. The gold was overlooked; and
the gun went off., ' ■
• Some refugees also came In to-day. They confirm
the accounts of confusion in Richmond, non-com
batants clearing out, all business ended, every male
fifteen years of ago and o ver In the defences of the
city. All the Richmond journals have suspended
publication, and, for a time at least, your readers
will be spared their high-toned articles. .
Geh, Terry’s division of the 10th Corps made a
reconnoissance in force this afternoon on the Central
road, advancing up to the toll-gate, within plain
view of the city of Richmond/ After feeling the
strength of the enemy the force returned to camp
about 9 o’clock this evening; bringing in a few.
prisoners. When the gallant division arrived in
camp there was great cheering to welcome them. .
It is said by prisoners that Lee commands person
ally at thialront. _ ■_

.The Copperhead press of the country are MvJn°-
circulation to a letter addressed hy General Nasslee
to H°n. 'William D. Kelley, ,or Philadelphia, in
which the author, speaking of General McClellan,
makes the following statement: '
“So far as the objections to Ms military quali
fications are concerned, I have only to remind you
that, within the last sixty days, a confidential friend
of the President was sent to offer him one of the
most Important commands of the army.: But this
proposition was coupled with the most dishonorable
condition: that he should decline to be a candidate
for the Presidency. General McClellan restrained
his indignation, and replied to the bearer of the
message, ‘ Go back to Washington and say to the
President, for me, that when 1 receive my official
written orders he shall have my answer.’ ”
We are authorized to say that the President has
no recollection of sending any message or messenger
to General McClellan j or of receiving any from Mm,
at any time since he was relieved from the com
mand of the Army, of the Potomac, and certainly
none such as mentioned in the published letter of
General Naglee. If the President sent a message

POLITICAL NOTES-
This picture of the national sacrifice Invited by
General McClellan is vivid and striking. It-Is by
the venerable and eloquent Robert J. Breckinridge,
of Kentucky:
Now, for God’s sake, and for your country’s sake,
look at It. Here we are, after between three andfour
yqars* war: after spending two or three thousand
millions of dollars;/ alter spilling the blood of a
million of our brothers, and consigning five hundred
thousand of them to their graves; after conquering
an extent of territory 1,510 miles In length hy six
hundred |!n breadth, we have an army in every
State of the Confederacy, and a majority of them
under our control; we have every stronghold
taken from them, except Mobile and Charleston and
Richmond; and, notwithstanding all tMs, we are
asked, asif we were a set of poltroons, to disgrace
ourselves to the latest generation of mankind, to
sacrifice everything we have fought for, and that is
worth living for, and make all the world say free
government is worthless; that it cannot take care
of itself. God Almighty in Heaven grant that every
man who utters such a thought may be choked until
he becomes a penitent and better man.
'Thefollowing recent words of. Secretary Chase
should be kept In memoryagainst the day of elec
tion :
Mere majorities will not suffice. Barge majori
ties will hardly be enough. We want and must
have majorities so overwhelming and decisive as
will extinguish every hope inthe hearts oftheoMcfs
of the rebellion, and in the hearts of all foreign
and domestic sympatMzers with rebellion, that the
American people will ever consent to the disuiem*
b#ment of the American Union, or to the re-esta
blishment of the ascendency of the slaveholding
oligarchy in the land of freedom.
There is authority for saying that there is no
foundation In fact for the statement said to have
been made by Mr. Biair in Ms late speech in New
York, that an attempt was concerted between
the President and General Grant to bring back
General McClellan as an adjunct to the latter in
the field. - On ;the contrary, if any such proposition
was made, it was done gratuitously hy Mr.-Blair,
Sr., without consultation with, or knowledge of,
either Mr. Blncoln or General Grant. Such a mis
sion, if any was undertaken, was created, by' Mr.
Blair upon Ms own motion, and Ms ambassadorship
was self-constituted. ■

; The new six.per cent, gold-interest-bearing loan,
amounting to-forty millions of dollars, just offered by
Secretary Fessenden, is attracting considerable atten
tion, and: will be taken up, with great eagerness at a
considerable premium. It is attracting much competi
tion. Receipts for par subscriptions to the ten-forty and
. seven-thirty, loans continue constant, ranging from bait
j* million to one million per day. These loans, with the
proceeds of the Internal revenue, averaging ihree-
of a million Per day,- will enable the Secretary
of the Treasury to pay the expenses of the Government
without any further Inflation of the currency by,the is
sue of. legal-tenders, except six per cont. compound
interest notes, whichfare now issued at the rate of a
quarter of a million per day, and: being immediately
absorbed as an Investment, cannot in any way he con
sidered as swelling the volume of the currency. We
call the attention of our readers to Jay Cooke &
Co.’s advertisement in reference to this loan.
