JAMES S. NEGLEY, the soldier hem of Allegheny viunty. ONE of the President's letter-writing con fidential friends telegraphs to a western - Demdcratic journal that Genlral Emonv is to be removed from command at Washing ton "not for What he has done, but for What he aimed to do in actingWl party interest against the President." - OUR NE1011110)1 'Cif the Dighteh concludes a very well , considered article, upon the evi dent necessity for the Registry law, which We printed yesterday, with a reference to the illegal votes which were polled for the Democratic ticket last October, and very pertinently remarks as follows: " Should Judge Sluirswood become satis fied, from an examination of the evidence' taken at Philadelphia and Harrisburg, (and it is his diity to examine it,) that he holds his high position through the illegal votes polled for him, and that Judge Williams had I really a clear majority of the legal vote cast last fall, we shall expect him to at once re sign—and, from the high character whichhe has ever borne for integrity can have no doubt such will be the course he will pursue. Nor would it be just for him, or indeed any' one else, should such be the case, to oppose the election of Judje Williams next fall to. an office which he would now fill but for il legal votes—and to which he is justly en titled. " THE INCREASED r LMAJORITY for Gov. ENGLISH, (Dem.) in Connecticut was due to the enormous natnralizlition in the cities and large manufacturing towns. Indeed, it was only that which has re-elected the Democratic candidate. = The 'Republican gains, tho' small in each precinct, were uni form and generalthroughont the rural dis- tricts of the State, but have been more than overbalanced by the natundizations in the large towns, and by careful but systematic colonization'of imported roughs from New York along the lines of railway.. In the five towns alone of Hartford., New Haven, Bridgeport, Bristol and Norwalk, the Dem ocrats gam,;: through the means we have specified, some 1,025 ih their majorities. The RepUblican vote is uniformly increased, but not in the same proportion nor byt?the• same aids., Gni majority in the Legislature, largely increased by the action 'of the coun try districts, ht Ci.infirmatory Of, the •;riew we have taken. Wisconsin elects . the Republican dates op. the Judicial ticket by some 3,000 to 4,000 majority. • The c'ffarter elections in numerous towns and cities of Indiana and Ohio, have re sulted, on the whole, ve4favorably for our friends. THE RADICAL papers, including the mil adelphia Pres.!), Harrisburg'-4ila,te Guard, and the 14ttaburgh Gazette are copying and endorsing a complimentary motice of Hick man, which says: "He is too valuable a member to be spared From a public body like our- State Legisla , two,. and is so esteemed in all parts of the ..--tgate., He is thoroughly honest, cannot be .belied:or frightened off, - and we' hope his native county will return him again next • - year."

Business is reviving generally through ont the land. Trade, building, travel and the avenues of transportation are all marked by a decided increase in activity, and, before the expiration of the current month, we confidently expect to record, as prevailing in all sections of the country, a degre9 of ac tivity quite up to the Usual standard at the opening of the Spring:: • The'crowds of un occupied mechanics and laborers who thronged the . - stfeets and public places of . **betty during the winter, are no longer seen in the numbers which 'elicited our re- gret a month or more ago. When our manufacturing establishments shall be once more in regular operation, labor of every kind.will be again fully emploYed, and, we trust, at fairly remunerative rates. = 1::= There has been within, the past year a large and general shrinkage of values in, every branch of productive nuMufacture, as well as in articles of prime necessity for, the general food_ supply, the only .decided exception in this respect, resulting from the partial failure of the wheat Crop of 1867. Had this great leading staple yielded even its fair average last year, there Would - now remain no obstacle in the way of an, equit able and convenient adjustment of values, in the receipts and expenditures of the opera tive classes; :which, should .conform , to' the' general reduction in all brmiches of trade. Only four months lutist elapse_ before the wheat crop OflB6B- 1 -LWhlch promises; from the larger breadth of ground sown, and from the unusually favorable char acter of the winter, to be one of extra abundarice--7willbe coming on to the- , market, to supply the millions with cheaper bread. Long before that, we hope to see that revival of„,manufacturing indiis try which is so essentially needed for the prosperity and the comfort, of seity like ours. The exhaustion of the present stocks of our staple and miscellaneous production - 8, the stimulus which the proSpect of good crops, with the removal of the tax as recent ly enacted b' Congress, will give to con sumption, the cordial and universal accept ' ance by all classes, both`of employers and ' employed, of producets and of contsumers, of a diminished standard of vrduation for everything that is bought and sold, - together , with the' relief of the commercial and I political interests of the country from the I unfavorable influences of the past seven Iyears, and the restoration of a more perfect peace, by the successful issue of impeach merit and reconstruction—all these causes will at a still e*lie.r, day, begin to operate most beneficially i in re-establisking and in creasing our t material prosperity. The year of a Presidential election has usually been found to be unfavorable to any great degree of financial steadiness or general business activity. We feel justified in the belief that the present season will prove an exception to ounpreceding experience in this respect, 'and that; with a quiet and orderly political canvass, the result of which is already,a fore gone eonclusion; and *with , the final. adjust-. mentof these embarrassing questions which rt 3 now close at band, the country may an ticipate a very early and melded return to its former state of healthy and ! vigorous / progress in material development. FRUIT PROSPECTS. - Some days ago the mercury took a sharp turn dowliwardsi and haiheld there up -to this time. So cold has it been as to awaken seriatis apprehensions . for the fruit crop. In consequence, we have taken pains to-as certain, as far as practicable, the judg- meats of fruit growers of experience and'au thority Very uniformly they incline to the opinion that in this region, sofa; the e. fruit is not damaged much, if any. They explain that the last autumn was uncommon ly favorable, warm weather continuing until late in the season, hilly trilittt :and; hskrd ening the fruit-bearing - stalks and twigs. If winter had closed in- early,-, these would have been immature`and succulent, and ex ceedingly-liable to perish by freezing dur- . ing the winter, .or by low temperatureg far on this spring. This liability does not exist the present year. The ' stalks and twigs ripened thoroughly, and consequently have more than ordinary vitality and power of resistance to cold in thCin,' -which affords much larger grounds for hope than would otherwise exist. A few days ago, thelndications of abund ance of fruit were all that could be desired. Peaches - had indeed, experienced slight in jury, but pears, apples and all other varieties, were in as good case as was- ever known.' What disaster, if , any, resulted from_the storm yesterday, told, nor'thrinet yet te un til there have been sOme`days , of , sunshine. We are glad to know that the fruit-growers do.not take a sombre view of the situation. Grapes, which are of superior conseqdence in this vicinity, are reported to be in no dan ger as yet. • ' In view of the facts as thus presented,we shall not set up a lamentation over the pros pectrve failure of the fruit until more co gent reasons shall be disclosed ..tbriknow . appear to eiist: —ln this connection it is not amiss, to re _mark that minter, grain is loOking -remarka ,bly Well.

MOORHEAD,' 'Who declines a re-election. It savors of su pererrogation to tell the, people of Allegheny county Who he iS;and what claims helms upon their confidence and- support. Born at East Liberty. in 1826, he has lived here all his days, except when absent in the itary 'service of the country, and has - so borne himself throughout that none of his fellow-cifizens are better known, or have stronger claims either for respect' or promo tion. . , His education was interrupted in the col legiate course, at his nineteenth year by his enlistment in-the army destined to serve against Mexico. His relatives and friends attempted to dissuade him from going, and the legal authorities even_ were, appealed to, on.account of his minority, to nullify his enlistment; but, with the spirit and decision that have always characterized him,. he. de termined to goiin spite of friends and fami ly. Seeing this, his family deshtted; and, as a private in the First Pennsylvania, Infan try, lie • made' :the' campaign'' ftom Vera Cruz to the city of Mexico. While sharing in the seige of Ruebla, news reached his friends that his . health was fail ing, and they procured his diicharge, but he' indignantly refused to accept of it, and re mained on , duty as a Sergeant, to which rank he had been promoted. On his return home, after the war, he de voted himself actively to agriculture, and passionately to. hoilculture. But, in the gratificationoffiiii love of beautiful fiowerti he did not lose, his passion for arms. His Military order was not cooled by the peace ful pursuits of vine-yards and gardens ; but during the thirteen years of calm wlfich fol lowed the Mexican war, he took great inter est in militia matters; and among, his last acts as a Brigadier. General of Pennsylvania mil itia, he earnestly urged on the Legislature thethorough rerirganization of that arm in view of the civil war; which he declared to be already „threatening the country, and which led him to rifler to the Governor, De: camber 1, 1860, - the service of a brigride of volunteers. Go*. CURTIN did not think the time had arrived for raising troops, but, April 18, 1861, he summoned General NEC.- 1 LEY to his aid, and at once commissioned I him a Brigadier General, in order to secure his assistance in organizing the immense: force of volunteers who rendezvoused at 1 Harrisburg. Ile was commissioned in the three months' service, and engaged under PAzzansor in the Northern Virginia campaign, command ing in,the only engagement of any impor tance fought by that army. _ • He re-enlisted a brigade - of three years' men, and, September 1861, was ordered with it to Kentucky. He participated in the march on Nashville, entering that city in February 1862. Thence, he was ordered to Columbia, Tennessee, in command of the district, with orders to protect the rear of BuELL's army, then marching , on Shiloh, and also the division of Mizo ram. moving on Huntsville. This he did with great suc cess, making several important raids. One of these was to aid llonoAsz's division then beseiging Cumberland Gall.. It embraced a rapid movement on and the bombardment of Chattanooga. On his way he fell in with and dispersed ADAMS'S corps of rebel cav alry. June itli, he bombarded the city for several hours, demonstrating as if he in tended to cross the river. To save Chatta nooga, the enemy abandoned Cumberland Gap to Mon.a.ta. As soon as that was done, NEGLEY retired to Columbia and resumed duty as district commander, and dispersing guerrillas and rebel cavalry. While thus holding that point, he suggested to Gen. BUELL, through Gen. Mizoram., the great strategic importance of holding Lowdon Ridge with the mountain passes and river-fords, in order to prevent BRAGG from crossing into Kentucky. The event justified the importance of this suggestion by revealing the serious mischief which re sulted. from its' neglect by his superior officer. August 31st, 1862, he was ordered to evacuate Columbia and retire on Nash ville. This he did deliberately, although harrassed4nlAs retreat by the forces AA the enemy. He carried _off large amounts of grain, cattle and stores, though lie was for bidden to touch the latter. He employed the negroes as teamsters, and subsequently upon the fortifications at Nashville. The movements of Ramo, whiclmequired .. sthe abandonment of Columbia,. piso,, de manded the partial tvac.iirtfion of Nailiville, and BUELL selected NEGLEY to' garrison The city' with his own and PALMER'S divi shins. When the main army marched into Kentucky after BRAGG, NEGLEY found him self besieged in , Nashville by Briacsia- TUDGE, 31ORGAN,' FOREST and ANntitsos. He kept strict watch, mule important sal lies, in one of which he surprised ANDER SON in his camp, routed and dispersed his force, and came near capturing that officer, who succeeded in escaping on an engine that i happened to be at hand. A few days after-he won marked honor;by his.repulse• of their combined attack 'on the city. 'At the battle of Stone River, NEGLEY com manded a division of the centre corps. On the first day he fought successfully arid des perately, during a forenoon which seemed to be endless, until, by the defeat of the right wing, his flank was exposed, and he was compelled to retire to the line of reseiles. Here he fought for two days more. On the afternoon of the third day, the battle hay- . ing been tmnsferred to the left, he made a counter-charge upon the advancing columns of the rebels under BRECNINRIDGE, broke and routedhim, pursuing:therninto their in trenchments, at a cost to the enemy _qf. eighteen hundied kidA am/ wounded men, This fact, attested by the, rebelrecoids of the war, shows the enarigenient ' to. have been one of. the most: desperate and ' eau guimar7 of all the battles of the rebellion. For this gallant, service he was promoted to be a Major-General. , , During the campaign of Tullahoma and Chicluunauga, NEGLEY commanded , the same division, and took part in the opera - _titans at Beach Greie, s the passage of the - 21 k and Tennessee rivers, and the battles of Dug Gap and Chickamauga. He command ed the advance of the center column of Rossottors's army in crossing Lookout Mornitain. The three - columns were widely separated, fifty miles' intervening between right wing and center, and thirty between left - wing and venter. BRAGG concentrated on the center. llosacws ord 'ed NAG VEY to advanc e ...! mid take -La& ett.e, Ga., liEhLtY was - advised, and so re p rted, that i r Marro was concentrating at that ery point, but the report was discredited by Hon anAtts. NEGLEY advanced cautiously, and, September 11, encountered the enemy. He drove him for sometime, but soon found BRAGG'S' *hole army on Ids **ant . - add' flanks. NEGLEY was not to be caught, but succeeded in extricating himself.without the loss of a wagon. The engagement lasted all day, and was the first premonition that P58E0,1061 had of danger.

One brigade was .I sent to the left, another in the center, and the third held as a reserve. Later NEGLEY Was taken from the command of the I division;and placed in command of a num ber of batteries; which had been separated from theirlnfantry supports on a new line to which was proposed to retire, and which would cover the retrograde move-, went. Before this was accomplished, the. right wing and center of the army broke and the troops felt back in confusion. The enemy charged NEGLEY'S guns in great force, and moving upon the flanks threaten ed their capture; but NEGLEY carried off without infantry sup Ports, the full number of fifty pieces. Arriving at R,ossVille,he found hiinself, in theabsenee of TIOSECEANS,,3IcCoos and Cumin:Dm:, the senior officer in that part of the field, and immediately set ,at work to reorganize 'the .forces. This :done; he se lected a strong position at ,Roseville Gap, and tried to open communications with Tnomas, but Could not.' But, soon after, TIMM, having formed 'a lunction with NEGLEY, ordered him to post - his men,on a line selected byhim and eye, the barmy a warm reception. Brand . attacked the next day btit was repulsed:after which our army retired to Chattanooga, and the sage of that place followed. Soon after NEGLEY was compelled, through the unfriendly intrigue of two general officers, who were prompted both, by military jealousy sand political enmity, to denianiffrom'ltostenAtts a Court of Inquiry. The application was granted ' and the Investigation resulted in, his ac quittal. The official record of the Court , states that "General NEGLEY exhibited I throughout the day (the second of the 1 bat- tle) and the following night, great activity and zeal in - the discharge of his duties, and the Court do not find in the evidence before them any ground for censure." In politics General NEGLEY has ever been a Whig or Republican. Always taking in telligent and liberal views of mentmd meas urea, lie has steadily been in the advance in all great movements of public opinion, and has never been thrown into eddies by which so many prominent men have lost the con fidence reposed in them. Clear-headed, ready, decided—understanding fully the great controversy which the American peo ple are now engaged in settling, and harng the hesutie3t sympathies for right side— intimately fantiliar with the special interests of the Twenty-Second Congressional Dis trict—identified from birth with its people— he has peculiar qualifications for fitly repre senting them well in the House of. Repre sentatives at Washthgton. He has - served his country acceptably, nobly, intimes of danger, and in ways which cost the largest sacrifice of ease and comfort, and exposed him td the largest risks of personal harm, if not of life itself. Doubtless he would feel it to be an impeachment of his honor to insist or even insinuate that he made these sacrifices and incurred these risks with a view to poittical promotion or other selfish advantage. But in performing . these duties, well and noblv, he certainly laid bis fellow citizens under strong and lasting obligations to him. When public services cease to chal lenge respect or to enforce recognition, it is safe to infer that Patriotism has declined, and that lower considerations have assumed the control. Nor need the claims of GEN. NEGLEY to the honorable civil distinction now sought for him by his friends, be rested exclusively or mainlyi on the ground of military reputa tion or performancei. In point of natural capacity, of experience, of training, and all other equalities properly deemed essential lb a Representattve, be is at least the 0111 peer of either Of his competitors. He would fitly serve the district, and the district would entail honor upon itself by conceding honor and precedence to one who has on so many great occasions reflected honor upon it. Re'member fellow citizens, those dark years of tbe rebellion, when you felt yonrselves ably represented in the field by this gallant soldier, and then say if his friends are asking too much in his behalf, when they seek to - make him their-representative and yours in the Congress of the United States ! The people of Allegheny county have wall been animated by an ardent patiolotism, , and an appeal is now made to them to recognize and:, distinguish by special favor one'who• was among the foremost in the defense of the. nation, and who mane an honorable name for himself and' Ibis - country in the recordsof the great War.
