after the use of two both's only, that not only was the
falling off arrested, but the color was restored to the grgy

MORRO Of THE ENEMY IN VIRGINIA.
From the Washington Republic, Sept. 4.3
We referred, yesterday, to the fact that the
Richmond politicians claim that Virginia has
fifty-five thousand troops in the field. They are
interested to represent the number as large as
possible, as it is upon their great contribution
of soldiers that they predicate their demands
for office at the hands of the Jeff. Davis Gov
eminent. As they have done nothing since
1789, (with the exception of a string of resolu
tions passed in 1798,) but hunt for office, enjoy
the sikLaries of office, and snarl when out office,
they have acquired a dexterity iu that special
matter which is unsurpassed, and if they have
any sort of basis for claiming office, it may
be safely assumed that they make the best and
most of it.
orovernorThtehElTlY, - proffiamition issued a
mofith since, notified the counties that he should
WM upon volunteers to the extent of ten per
cent. of their white population, or, failing to
receive volunteers to that amount, should pro
ceed to make up the deficiency by draft. When
the men-urea thus indicated are carried out
fully in every county, as it is not at all proba
ble that they ever can be, the sum total of the
result would be about seventy thousand soldiers,
which is ten per cent. of so much of the white
population of Virginia, as is, in fact, under the
jurisdiction of the Richmond cabal. If these
measures have already progressed so far as to
produce fitty-five thousand men, it is quite as
much as could be expected, or as is credible.
There has been nothing like it in the military
paroxysms of the old French revolution, when
Llarnot "organized victoi ;" nothing like it in
the levies of the Russian Alexander to resist
the invasion cf Bonaparte; nothing like it in our
own revolutionary struggle ; nothing like it, in
short, in any d zfensive war in modern history.
How vast the burden in, ,will be realized from
considering that it is equal to levies of 60,000
men in Maine, of 110014 in either of the States
of Massachusetts or Indiana, or of 800,000 in
New York.
$BOO,BOl 01
Of the seven original Confederate States,
Texas is occupied with her own defence on the
side of the hie Grande and the Indians, with
her offensive expedition to the Messina Valley,
and with reinforcing the army of General Mc-
Collough. Florida is too insignificant to re
quire much notice. The most she can do is to
raise some two-penny squads for coast defence,
and (possibly) to contribute one or two ragged
battalions to the force necessary to be kept in
front of Pickens.
There remain the States of SOuth Carolina,
Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi, and Louisiana,
with an aggregate white population of two
millions, and with their power of sending
troops to Virginia diminished by the very con
siderable drains for home defence, in addition
to which, Louisiana has sent one rwiment, per
haps two, to the army of General'McCullough.
They have a long comit to guard, many forts to
occupy, and the considerable force at Pensaco
la to maintain. To keep 60,000 men in Vir
ginia, they must have not far from 100,000 on
their rolls, as the number in recruiting depots,
and of fresh soldiers going, and of invalid
at - soldiers [returning, must nearly equal
the efficient force in front of the enemy.
It does not seem credible in itself, that they
can have so many in Virginia as 60,000, and
what we know of particular States, does not
indicate that. The maximum number furnish
ed by South Carolina has been eight small regi
ments, equal to 6,000 men. In that proportion
all the States referred to have in Virginia
34,000 men. The Governor of Georgia claims
to have armed 17,000 State troops, in addition
to a (conjectural) number of 6,000 enlisted from
Georgia in the distinctive confederate army.—
This is from the commencement of the war,
and it is not probable that all these men who
are alive, are now in the service. A portion of
them is at Pensacola, and another portion on
the coast defences. How many may be in Vir
ginia is not known, but certainly not Georgia's
proportion (about one-third) of 60,000 men.
Outside of the original Confederate States, it
is only from North Carolina, that considerable
numbers can be brought forward to defend Vir
ginia.
Arkansas is occupied with Missouri.
Tennessee is prolific in soldiers, but no au
thentic estimate of her troops goes beyond 26,-
000. Of these,,lo,ooo are stated to be on the
Kentucky line, (including the force observing
the disaffected population of East Tennessee,)
and 6,000 are said to be in camp in and near
Memphis. The expedition of Qen. Pillow must
absorb nearly the entire balance. Beyond the
two regiments sent early to Virginia, there is
evidence, or probability, that Tennessee has,
any soldiers there.
There remains North 'Carolina ; with a. white
of
population of 881,488, (about that
WHAT I LIVE FOR
BY G. LINNAUS BANKS
undoubtedly able to furnish a good many sol
diers, but not believed to be specially hearty
in the rebel cause. North Carolina has bad a
good many men on her coast defence, and the
number now, since our seizure of Hatteras inlet,
must be greatly increased. A regiment was
captured at the forts at that inlet, and another
regiment was then known to be in the close
vicinity.
To all these resources available for the de
fence of Virginia, must be added four or five
thousand volunteers from Kentucky, Maryland
and this District, not a great number, but des
peradoes from the nature of the case, being re
fugees, and likely to fight well, so ar as mere
zeal and courage are concerned.
From these data, we may conjecture pretty
nearly what the force of the enemy in Virginia
is. It is manifestly far short of the estimates
which are popularly current.
Whatever it is, it will be available, four-fifths
of it, for the struggle immediately in front of
Washington. it will be promptly massed by
the aid of railroads, whenever Gen. McClellan
advances. just as it was massed when Gen. Scott
ordered the forward movement of July 16th.

NEW YORK DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION
&MAMMA, Sept. 6.
The Committee on Resolutions reported a
series in effect as follows :
Resolved, That the watchword which should
animate the Democracy in the defence of our
imperilled country is the sentiment of Jackson,
"that the Union must be preserved."
Resolved, That the claim to relinquish the
State allegiance is unwarranted by the Consti
tution and at war with it in letter and spirit,
and incompatible with good government; and
the Democracy, ever maintaining, as they still
do, that secession is revolution.
Resolved, That the seizure of the ports and
property of the government, followed by the
authorization of privatering, precipitated the
country into war.
Resolved, That it is the duty of the govern
ment to prosecute this war withall its powerand
resources, and the duty of the people to rally to
its suport until the struggle ends with the tri
umph of the Constitution and the laws and the
restoration of the Union.
.Resolved, That we hold next in guilt, to the
faction in arms the northern agitators.
Resolved, That it was the duty of Congress to
have encouraged the loyal citizens of the South
by ample guarantees of their Tights an.l by just
and honorable concitssions, and we believe it to
be the duty of the Government while putting
down the rebellion to offer the loyal people of
the disaffected States the remedy which the
Constitution itself provides, viz : A Convention
of all the States for the revkion and amend
ment of that instrument.
Resolved, That the Democracy of the State
regard any attempt to pervert' the conflict into
a war for the emancipation of slaves as fatal to
all hopes for the restoration of the Union.
Resolved, That we protest against the doc
trine that any power except the representatives
of the people can suspend the writ of habeas
corpus, and protest against the passport sys
tem, against the government establishing a
State police, against the assumption of the Gov
ernment to repress the discussion of its policy
by a free press, by the refusal to afford it the
proper mail facilities, and finally protest against
the Presidents doctrine, that the States derive
their authority from the Federal Government.
The last resolution concludes as follows :
Resolved, That a Democratic victory in this
State will be hardly less auspicious to the cause
of the Union than the triumph of the federal
arms in the field, and therefore we hold those
who are trying to create dissensions in the ranks
of the Democracy as nut only treacherous to its
principles, but disloyal to their country.
