LATEST ADVICES FROM OUR OLD COR- RESPONDENT, "W. S." PI BOARD THE OLD SHIP °WWI- TtITION ON 0 - 1111 RETURN PROM SALT RIMER, OCT. 17th, 1862. PEAR MESSENGER :—You may think strange of my not writing you soon er; buf, my departure from the dis mal regions at the bead waters of Salt river was so sudden and unex pected I bad 11 0 time for letter-wri ting or shaving, an d hardly enough to thank the good Lord for our hap py deliverence from our long and painful exile for long it has been, as a year in this locality is as a thou sand among the green hills and true hearts of our glorious little County. On the evening of the 14th of Octo ber, I was busily engaged at my usu al calling, and thinking of the long years that might elapse before I should be gladdened by a sight of the old home faces and familiar scenes I had left on that memorable night in November, 1860. In the midst of my meditations, I heard an infernal din and confusion on the wharf, and loud, wild shouts, making the very welkin ring. Dropping the imple ments of my craft, I rushed out and inquired of one of the numerous pass ers-by what it meant? Stopping but for a moment, he hastily gasped, "That Niggerism had gone up the spout in old Pennsylvania—that the People had triumphed over the Politi cians at last—that little Greene had given Gen. Lazear 2135 majority, and that the old Ship Constitution was just getting ready for her down ward trip." Throwing off my apron, and quickly drawing on my old s sal low-tail, and packing my yellow-cot ton handkerchief with ragged linnen and faded unmentionables , I made an air-line for the levee, detrmined to secure one of the first berths. On my way, I encountered my old. friend "T." who promised to drop you a line in my stead, as some private affairs would delay his departure a day Or two. Getting on board instanter, and presuming that I was about the first passenger, what was my surprise to find the fore and after cabins and the hold crowded to suffocation with the jolliest and happiest lot of Pennsyl vania Democrats you ever saw.— There was General Foster, full of smiles and congratulations, and Buckalew, and Jerry Black, and ten thousand others. But the "observed of all observers" was a thick-set, jov ial, overjoyed little Dutchman from Berke by the name of Van Clamp, whose merry laugh shook him in his boots and threatened the integrity of his belly, and who swore he had spent his last winter in the cabbage and cranberry patches of the Upper Salt. Although the old "Constitution" had been out of use some time, she made good speed and was a terror to all the vessls she met on the way.— About half way down a small schoon er hove in sight, and as she approach ed the huge waves from the old ship rocked her to and fro, and her crew pitched from side to side as though they were all crazy or drunk. Pres ently a lard wave ran her ashore and made her a complete reek. A life boat was immediately sent out to as certain the names of passengers and crew. The following persons were found : Horace Greely, Wendell Phillips, Gerritt Smith, Ben Wade, and Bingham of Ohio, Sumner, and many others that space will not per mit me to name. They presented a shocking appearance and elicited the sympathies of ail beholders. Tatter ed and torn nether garments, brandy blossomed noses, arms in slings, and bruised and blackened eyes, showed they had been roughly handled in the fight. The name of this craft was Radical Pressure. The next vessel we encountered was the Emancipationist, John W. Forney, Master. It was crowded with Dutch from Lancaster, and broad brim Quakers from the Chester District. Forney wore the identical coat he bought of the Republicans '2 Years SO and which he paid for in Clerking: • Among others, I recog nised Wm. S. Ross, a renegade Dem act* pild late a candida te for Sur veyor General. He was 44m f ding in Forney's rear, and held liitn'byliis cost-tail, and looked like "patience on a monument," smiling, in ghastly style, "at Grief." Forne,y's dejection was heart-breaking to behold, much worse than Greely's, who had been used to such trips- john was met. taring 110180 cams alma "Buchanan Enid the ingratitude of Republics." 1 Tbe net hoist we overhauled was the Wissebago Nocotisilt Track, Simon Cameron, Paptain. The decks were crowded with passengers, principal ly Beef contractors and negroes un- 1 der arms, and in Uncle Sam's uni form. The shoulder straps, gilt but tons showing the American eagle I fall spread, and the impertinent airs of the "culled" officers attracted con- ' siderable attention and stirred up quite a commotion among the white men on the Constitution, who threat- i ened to throw the swaggering. apes ! overboard, but were restrained by our old commander who told us "morel- 1 ful men were even merciful to beasts." The "Moccasin Track" carried h latto colored flag with the figure of a Congo Chief in a red field on the up per corner. Simon was at the bow "pointing down" as we left him. Soon after parting with Simon, we passed the wreck of the high pressure water Log Steamer "No-party," the boilers of which had both exploded on passing "Point Lookout. Dr. Wallace and his man Friday, (who refused to sign Gen, Lazear's certifi cate,) were both blown clean out of water by the catastrophe ; but we un derstood had taken another • steamer in the hope of overhauling a vessel I they bad been pursuing since they left port. On nearing Nigger Shoals, we dis covered a small hermaphrodite Brig on a Sand-bank carrying a black flag, and with divers dirty shirts out as signals of distress. She had evident ly been badly pelted in the pitiless storm she had encountered about the 14th of October, was without rudder or compass, and had as filthy and ragged a crew as ever manned a ves sel. Approaching her cautiously, lest we might batter in her shattered sides, we hailed the chap on the lookout, who war half asleep, with his chin on his breast, and a pint flask of rifled whiskey peering from the top of his hat, which was sadly dilapidated. He answered by a broad grin and a ringing, idiotic laugh, that told us at once that it was all that was left of our old friend Joe C—. A boat load of our marines, your -corres pondent among the number, boarded the craft promptly, and ascertained her to be the Contraband from Waynesburg, and officered as follows : "Cato"—Chief Polly-wog and Pilot. Evans—Scullion and Lieutenant of Marines. Sayers, of "Contre,"—Pureer and amyl( saver. A. En gi n eer. 'Squire R—, Chaplain. J. Porter, Boot-black, Gen eral Gossip and Toby-smoker. "Sorrel-top" D---, Clerk and "Lec turer on the unity of the Races and the war power." Dr. G—, Bar-keeper, who says "whiskey will do to sell, but not to drink." We found Lieutenant Evans at the stern of the brig in full uniform with drawn sword. He looked bad ly frightened at our approach, trem bled at the knees and turned pale.— Cook and M-- assured him of his safety, however, and bo gradually re covered from his scare, and took your correspondent to one side and exhibited a proof copy volume of his Army Letters bound in sheep, just from the Tribune press, ,ancl, selling solely by subscription. I subscribed for fi‘ e copies to get rid of his im portunities and gave him a dime to wet his whistle. lie thanked me for my "undiluted and contumacious mag nanimity," and was going ahead with some other such high flown talk when I turned on my heel. "Poor devil," I thought as I left him, "what a misfortune it is to be born without brains !" On reaching the bow of the brig, I was surprised to meet General Lazear's competitor, Dr. Wal lace, in a violent altercation with E. M. S—, H. B—, and J. R—, of Morgan, all of whom were weeping and wiping their noses and vainly trying to account for the late Repub lican defections and losses in their several localities. The Doctor was "slow to believe," used sundry ex pressions more emphatic than elegant, and wound up the interview by de nouncing S— as a "second Iscariot." He beckoned me to one side, poured his griefs in my ear and intima ted his purpose to "quit the d—d par ty the first chance he got." From my knowledge of the Doctor's ante cedents, he can make the change with ease and facility. The tearful farewells spoken by our departing friends as we left them, p and the mes sages they sent back to their bi•eth ren to beware of their example and fate would fill • a volume. We may commit their words of warning to print at another time. The "Constitution" came down in company with the "Conservative Re publican," as gallant a craft as ever out-rode the waves of fanaticism and folly. The officers were chiefly old men with silvered locks, and grave, thoughtful brows—men who had led in the strife of parties in the days of Clay and Webster, and who had learned from those loyal old chief tains a love for the Union and Con stitution of their fathers which can only cease to animate them when Death touches their heart-strings with his cold fingers. Young men, too, of inflexible courage and noble mien filled the decks, and sent to us, over the broad waters, the soul-stir ring music of our national airs. Oh, how our hearts leaped to our throats as we heard once more the notes of those peerless old songs which Hop kins bad penned in the infancy of the Republic :ind Keys had composed in his prison-shie ! They recalled the earlier and better days of the country, ere the venomous serpents of faction and fanaticism bad crept, into our political Eden, when every American was a brother and every State a sister, when peace and plenty were in every homestead, arid OP common weal was the common aim.— A happy day, *ben eve, man spoke his thoughts and exercised his rights without, terror or hindrance, "or any such thing." Bat yourreaders will weary of this long epistle and I mast close. In my next I obeli give you wine account of our arrival at home, and the saran: and painful changes which have oc curred in our absence. Inveterately and eternally yours, W. S. For the Messenger THANKSGIVING. MESSRS. EDITORS :—I am pleased to see by the Governor's Proclamation in your last issue, that we are to have a day of General Thanksgiving in this State, on the 27th inst. This is eminently right and proper; and every good citizen should feel deeply grateful that our Governor is a God-fearing man, ready and willing to recognize the intimations of Di vine will in "whatsoever comes to pass." Seldom have any people had greater reason to be thankful for the prospects of speedy deliverance from the evils of misgovernment and op pression, which have so long and so lately environed us. These pros pects which were beginning to dawn at the time our Governor issued his proclamation, have sir.ee been great ly multiplied mid strengthened by the cheering tidings from New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Illinois, and other sections of our oppressed and bleeding country. Have we not been made to feel that "when the wicked beareth rule, the people mourn ?" May we soon again be made happy in the knowledge of the truth, that "when the righteous are in authority, the people rejoice." To this end let all join in observing the 27th inst., with glad and thankful hearts, most earnestly entreating the Almighty to make our civil rulers wise, sober and earnest in counsel. CALVIN.

From Fortress Monroe---The Burning of the Ship Allegheny—Rebel Treatment of Returned Prisoners---A Singular Court Martial---The Spoils of Kentucky—Sup plies for the Rebel Army---Alarm in North Carolina. FORTRESS MONROE, Nov. I.—The second mate and seven of the sailors from the ship Allegheny, which was recently burned at the month of the Rappahannock, arrived at Fortress Monroe to-day, from Yorktown, un der arrest. The crew of the Alle gheny numbered twenty men.— These eight men were picked up, by the gunboat Monticello and taken to Yorktown. We have learned noth ing definite in regard to the destruc tion of this ship by fire, but the in vestigation which will probably be made, and the examination of these men now under arrest will no doubt throw the crime upon the right par ties. The Richmond Examiner, of the 30th, ult.,says: Day before yester day a Yankee gunboat came up the the York river as far as West Point. They made no stay, but gave notice that they intended to send up a large vessel to blockade the river and put a stop to trade in that direction, which is principally oysters. They also say that the people on the Rap pahannock river have not yet tasted the horrors of war, and they intend to pay them a visit soon. The Examiner has an article on the treatment of the exchanged pris oners at Aiken's Landing, in which it says : We have been waited upon by several of the surgeons who came up from Aiken's Landing on Tuesday in charge of the wounded paroled prisoners, and from their statements, of neglect and the treatment received at that point, it would seem that the sufferings of the Confederate, prison ers only commence when they are reioased from Yankee thraldom.— Their Cz!stody and care is transfer red to those from whom they have a right to expect humane and better treatment. We hope to bear of no more such treatment. The Richmond Examiner of the 30th says: Michael Heawley, a citi zen of Richmond, convicted of the charge of attempting to smuggl liquor through Petersburg to this city, is sentenced to wear a barrel shirt with the words "Liquor smug gler," marked in large letters upon it, to be marched through the town to the southern depot, and there to stand in his novel garment from 10 till 3 o'clock to-day. He is then to be sent to bard labor atFort Caswell for six months, with a ball and chain attached to his left leg. The above is the sentence of a court martial convened at Mechanics' Hall,Peters burg, Va. The wagon train of supplies brought from Kentucky by Gen. Kirby Smith was forty miles long, and brings one million yards of Ken tucky jeans, with large amounts of boots and shoes, 200 wagon loads of bacon, 6,000 bbls. of pork, 15,000 mules and horses, 8,000 beeves, and a 4 large lot of hogs. The Express, of North Ca-olina, says there are many con side, .iOll5 which make it necessary Vat the Government should take prompt and energetic measures to hold out against the enemy in the Eastern portion of North Carolina. The people of this section, already alarmed at the prospect of being overrun by the enemy, are said to distrust the, intentions of the Gov ernment to h'old this country, and are making prepitations to remove their valuable property to safer quarters. BilirA Duel recently took place in Chaileeton, S. C., between Col. W. R. Cal houn, of tho ht Regiment South Carolina Artillery, and Maj. Alfred Rhett, of the same regimen;, is which the former was shot through je body and died an hour afterwards. lioth of the gentlemen were of the Orli and most fiery families of that litatit. - The quarrel mistestiad while tie bombardment of Fort antater was !ping on. Gen. 11111admaants Otestifialits Southern papers state that Gen. Hind man is now in a military prison at Little Rock, and is shortly to oe taken to Rich mond. Albert Pike has written a long letter to the Arkansas Patriot, showing up Hiildman's course. He says that, while in Memphis, Hindman went to the banks of that city, under assumed authority of Beauregard, and made them fork over a million of dollars for operations in Arkan sas. After getting into that State, he is sued a series of most extraordinary milita ry orders. He at first declared martial law; he next had all cotton seized for the Con federate Government or burned ; he next ordered all provisions whatever, likely to fall into General Curtis' hands, to be de stroyed, and ordered all wells in the coun try Curtis might pass through to be poisoned ; and, finally, he refused to let any citizens pass beyond the limits of Ar kansas for any purpose whatever. Brilliant Cavalry Skirmish. HEADQUARTERS ARMY OF TEE POTOMAC, RECTORTOWN, VA., Nov. 6th—Gen. Pleas anton remained over night at Mallham, and this morning movedson towards Bar bourse, five miles distant, and near the mouth of Chester Gap. Before reaching the town he came up with Gen. Stuart, with 3,000 men and one battery. The en emy had their guns posted on a hill on the left of the road, but were driven off. _ . Col. Gregg, of the Bth Pennsylvania, charged on a full rebel regiment, which was met in gallant style, but the rebels were completely routed, and seventeen prisoners captured. As the enemy fled, Capt. Saunders, with a squadron of the 6th cavalry, charged on the flank, while Pen nington assailed them with shell. The enemy left ten dead on the field. Our loss was one killed and five wounded.— Among the enemy's dead was one Cap tain. The Adjutant of a Virgins regiment had his leg broken, and is a prisoner. The conduct of our cavalry it this ac tion was splendid, and it was only necessa ry for Stuart to meet them in the field to show the enemy's inferiority. Salem was occupied to-day by General Bayard's command of cavalry, first driv ing the Ist Virginia cavalry from the town, and capturing seven prisoners. Death of Gen. 0. M, Mitchel. The telegraph shocks us with news of tLe death of Gen. 0, McKnight Mitch el, at Beaufort, South Carolina. He died on the 30th of October, and it is said of yellow fever, but this is not yet so cer tain. By advices from Port Royal to the 29th, we learned yesterday that Gin. Mitch el and his two sons (aids) were very 111, but ill of a malarious fever, caused by throwing up earthworks on a morass, to the left of Gen. Mitchel's headquarters at Hilton Head. Capt. L. A. Warfield died on the 28th of October, and Capt. Wil liams. of Gen. Mitchel's staff, on the 28th, both of the same disease. .Whatever was the cause,the nation will mourn the loss of this active General, while the world ,►ill mourn the loss of one of the most promi nent astronomers of the age. llorrible Tragedy. A horible tragedy occurred at Port Clin ton, Ohio, on Friday, resulting in the mur der of two young girls, named Amy Kirk and Naomi Knight, by a farm hand named Henry Riquarts, who afterwards put an end to his own existence by suicide. The girls had been left alone with Riquarts, and it would seem were first outraged, and then brutally murdered. Alarmed at the enormity of his crime, the murderer pro eceded to the barn, and procuring a rope for the purpose, hung himself from a beam which ran across the building. One of the girls was aged about eleven years and the other eighteen. They were both intel ligent and interesting, and their shocking death produced the most intense excite ment in the neighborhood. Latest from the Southwest. ST. Louis, November B.—We hear nothing of special interest from Gen. Schofield's army. The rebels do not appear to have attempted to regain their lost advantages or to repossess themselves of any part of Missouri territory. They have been pursued into Boston Mountain, and will cer tainly be compelled to retreat be yond the Arkansas river. The rebel column that was to take Pilot Knob and Girardeau from the southeast, by way of Pocahontas, have not yet achieved such a result. On the con trary, they have been driven below Pocahontas, and portions of General Steel's forces are so disposed at Pit man's Ferry and other points that it will be impossible for the enemy to obtain a foothold in that quarter. Entire Hebei Camp Captured. PHILADELPHIA., Nov. B.—An Inqui• rer special from Fortross Monroe, dated the 6th, says:—The gunboat Delaware arrived hero last ni,fht from Newbern, N • C. General lios ter had left Newborn with some 13,000 men, and had gone to ely mouth, and with about 8,000 men surrounded some 3,000 rebels, about one-half of whom wore cavalry. The rebels wished to make terms, but General Foster was obstinate, and demanded an unconditional surren der, and they, finding they could not do better, yielded with a good grace. iiiirTHß ARMY OF THY POTOMAC seems to be at last fairly in motion. All the Gape communicating with the Shenandoah val ley, with the exception of those south of the Manassas railroad, are in the pos sossion of Union troops, and the army is now crossing in force along the Upper Potomac. The posseeion of the remain ing Gape is so important to safety of the rebel army, by covering the movements of their supply trains, and if necessary their retreat, that the rebels will no doubt resist stoutly any attempt to drive them out. The season for military move ments is waning rapidly, and if ouj army is destined to accomplish any important operations before the great sea of mud spreads over Virginia no time should be lost. a At Petersboro', Madison Co., Mrs. Deborah Straugh, wife of a sol dier in the 125th regiment, awoko in the morning, and found her child, three months old, lying dead by her side.

Lours, Nov. 7.—About one o'clock yesterday morning, when ten miles above St. Genevieve, the steamer J. H. Dickey exploded one of her boilers, killing several and wounding others of the passengers and crew. Among the killed is Lieutenant F. Dodge, Sixih U. S. cavalry, of Phil adelphia ; Henry Adlen, clerk, was dangerously scalded. Several persons are known to have been blown overboard and others nmped over into the river in the panic and were drowned. Destructive Eire iu Browns - Me. The borough of Brownsville was on Monday last the scene of an un usually disastrous fire, resulting in the destruction of the Brewery of Mr. Edward Toyu bee, the Steam Saw Mill belonging to 0. M. John ston and Capt. A. Jacobs, and the dwellings of Mrs. Mary Miller and Caroline Biglow, owned by Mrs. Mil ler, and the store and dwellings of Joseph Reese. A BRAVE BOY, Near Lake Shetek, sixty miles southwest of New Ulm, a family was surprised by Indians, the father kill ed and the mother seized as a pris oner, but two children, one twelve years and the other two years of age, were concealed from the savages in a neighboring thicket of grass and weeds. After the alarm, the mother thus concealed her children, her last words to the older boy being to "save his little brother and never leave him." Th ludians disappearing with their vaihives and plunder, the brave lad, with J baby brother on his back, started for the nearest settlement, subsisting on wild fruits and roots, and reaching New Ulm in fourteen days. About half way on his jour ney of sixty miles, he overtook a neighbor named Ireland, who had laid down to die, having been struck by no less than eight bullets; and who insisted that it was hopeless to escape. "But," was the heroic reply of the boy, "my mother's last words were to save my little brother, and 1 am going to do it." Tois devoted courage gave new life to Ireland, who struggled forward and all reached New Ulm without ac cident. Ireland is now recovering. On the next day after their arrival at New Ulm, the mother of the chil dren was brought in by a scouting party. The Indians finding her an incumbranee to their retreat., and not being at the moment disposed to kill her, left the woman on the prair ie, and after wandering many days she was reunited to her children.— St. Paul Press. TEACH THE WOMEN TO SAVE. There's the secret. A saving wo man at the head of a family is the very best savings bank yet estab lished ; one that receives deposits daily and hourly, with no costly ma chinery to manage it. The idea of saving is a pleasant one, and if "the women" would imbibe it once, they would cultivate and adhere toit, and thus manage when they were not aware of it, would be laying the foundation for a competence, securi ty in a stormy time, and shelter in a rainy day. The woman who sees to her own house has a large field to save in, and the best way to make her comprehend it is for her to keep an account of current expenses.— Probably not one wife in ten has an idea how much are the expenditures of herself and family. PROFANITY IN THE ARMY. The following order has been is sued by Gen. Howard for the sup pression of profane swearing in his division : The General commanding this di vision has noticed, with extreme pain, on the part of officers and men, the constant and very general use of profane oaths. He need not remind any thinking man of the vulgarity and meanness of this practice, nor speak of it as a positive violation of God's law, but will simply appeal to the good sense and better feelings of the members of bis command, and urge them, by all they bold dear, to abstain from insulting Him whose protection they need.

The Constantinople papers report that the town of Alabash, in the district of Zeytnm, has been razed to the ground and its inhabitants, who were Armenians, put to the sword. The Armenians had partici pated in quelling an insurrection in a Turkish village, killing many Turks, and this was seized uponby the Turkish gover nor the of province as a pretext for gratify ing his hatred towards the Armenians.
