We were disposed at first to receive with doubt, the rumors of negro plots and timings, with which the secessionists who are about to be whipped in Virginia, are calculating to elicit symp Ally among their friends in the north and loyal states. We agree, therefore, with the Bulletin, that too much confidence is not to be placed in the rumors of intended negfo-risings that occasionally come to us from Virginia, from Mississippi, from Louisiana and or her of the rehel states. These rumors are, in most cases, the offspring of the fears of the elavehold ere themselves. They live in terror of the " property" they have been so carefully awn . maiming! Every one of them has a terrible skeleton in his house. The living chattels are the terror of the family. There is a constant apprehension that some spark from without may vivify, in the enslaved breast, the instinct of freedom, and that the slave may suddenly turn master. Even on the happiest plata°, tions, there are days and nights of uneasiness ; and long before the rebellion against the Union there were, in various parts of the south, fre quent general alarms, which excite d large dis tricts of ii . ountry, concerning some supposed Se rious plans among the nogroes for asserting the natural right of every human being, the right of liberty. Much more is this the case now, when the principal slave states ere in arms against the government, and when the able-bodied whites are nearly all away from their homes and eery lug in the army. The uneasiness of the whites is increased further by the President's procla mation, and they are publicly expressing their opinions upon that important state paper, and thus informing the negroes of its character and of the terror that it excites among them. But it is not probable that the proclamation has had any effect yet among the negroes. The more intelligent among them are those that will act upon it, if there should be any action, and they are too prudent to do anything pre cipitately. They are much more likely to await the coming of the Union armies, and to accept their freedom peaceably, after the Ist of Jan uary. This, we trust, will be the case through out the south. There have` been horrors and bloodshed enough in this war, without adding those of a negro revolt. But if a revolt occurs, it will be a natural consequence of the course pursued by the slave °wpm s towards the slaves. Since the war be gan, their severity to their servants has increas ed. Their tears and distrust have made them ill-natured and harsh. Negroes in the border states, suspected of aspiring to be free, have been sold and sent further south. Recaptured fugitives have been terribly puni.hed and then sold, and sent away from the border. Families have thus been broken up, in a more ruthless way than ever before. 'there have been fre• quent hangings, burnings and shootings of black men who dared to try to win their freedom.— The report of the hanging of seventeen, the other day, in Culpepper County,- Virginia, on a mere suspicion of their being engaged in a plot, comes in a well authenticated shape. Such a frightful punishment, for a merely suspected offence, shows the state of trawl among the whites to be savage and desperate beyond all precedent. Some of there seventeen; it appelire, had ie their possession newspapers containing the President's proclamation. For this they were murdered, If anything is calculated to bring on negro revolts, it is this sort of treatment. The Presi dents's proclamation could never be more than a pretext far a rising. But the recent brutali ties are provocations to it that cannot long re main cool and undisturbed, when they find the horrors of slavery constantly increasing, and when they see families torn asunder forever, and their brethren hung up before their eyes merely on suspicion. They will reason that it is better to fall fighting for freedom, than to be murdered for nothing. Better to die like men, than to die like dogs. Such simple logic is in telligible even to the illiterate slave. Every new act of cruelty at the south sharpens the slave's wits and strengthens his longing for freedom. The whites of the south are actually eduoiting their negroes for revolt. The whites of the north have nothing to do with it. The real abolitionists, who have done and are doing more to destroy slavery than any northern party ever could do, are the slave-owners them selves. If there should be a rising among the negroes, it will be their work. Tun Tamer SMUT does not relish the notice which we took of its splendid description of the rebel raid in the Cumberland Valley, and ob jects to our comparison of that notice with the abuse it has always heaped upon, tike govr meat. There is nothing strange or rumecouir table in this objection ; nor are we at all 'nut prised with the resentment which it manifests at being thus exposed. The Spirit has had the taint of treason in its columns ever since the precipitation of rebellion. Some of its former proprietors are now open traitors—others, 'too cowardly to take such grounds, have content ed themselves with acting as informers to such men es Gen. Stewart, and yet the sheet claims to be loyal. Bah I So far as the men are con cerned who are supposed to control the columns of the x9per' it at present, we know nothing ; but of the Aitirit's reputation we know sufficient to disgrace !tiff_ man who has the temerity to con- neoiiiimself with its control. TIM COMMON SCHOOL LAW OF ,PENN- SYLVANIA We are indebted to the Superintendent of Common Schools, Hon. Thomaa H. Burrowes, for a copy of a pamphlet containing the laws in relation to our Common School system, with decisions of the Superintendent, and explana nations, instructions and forms for school directors, embraced. It is not our purpose to exhibit the character or point out the features of these laws in our reference to this pamphlet. The digest was intended for the instruction and guidance of those who are called to act as school directors and superinten dents of school districts. As such it is in the most lucid and complete style of the ripe scholar and enthusiastic friend of education who is at the head of the Common School system of the Commonwealth. Of course, without it, the Director and Superintendent would be unable to discharge his duty; and therefore, to both, it is invaluable. To Mr. Burrowes, the Common School system of education owes its greatest success. He may be called, in one sense, the projenitor and the protector of the institution. He ushered the sys tem into practical operation. AB Secretary of State during Miner's administration, be was the first to establish schools throughout the Commonwealth, on this system, and has ever since, either in a private or public capacity, given the great enterprise his personal, unceasing and zealous attention, until it has become the ride, glory and boast of the Commonwealth. Al ready has there passed through its primary channels of education up to its higher orders 01 culture, and thence to graduate, those who stand foremost in the ranks of society, in the pursuit of trades, the cultivation of the professions, the undertakings of commerce, if not in all the enterprises of life The men formed by this system, are those who are looked to by the State, with a confidence for support to which those educate! where the fountains of knowl edge are sealedto the poor, do not excel in ren dewing. As such, we are always bound to regard the system with veneration and grati tide; and as such, too, considering his con nection with the great enterprise, Superinten dent Burrowes, has a right to regard it as a result in a great measure, of the labor of his life. LOYAL MEN Whatever others may say to the contrary, and however men may entrench themselves in the force of a party, or in the advantages of personal wealth or social consideration, we still maintain that there is an intlaenca of sympathy in the loyal states, for the traitors who are in arms in the south or rebel states, whioh must be put down and crushed out, before the armed rebels can be effectually conquered. No people that ever formed themselves into a state, or no government that ever armed for its own preserva tion and the vindication of its power, bee so con ciliated the elements conspiring for the destruc tion of both, as have the loyal people of the loyal states, and the men who represent the legiti mate government, of the Union. This concilia tion has not. been directed to those in arms, or even to those whom we had hopes would sup port the means which the government has been adopting to crush treason. The conciliation has rather been in the direction of a class who have determined from the first to aid the rebels, so that while the government was engaged with such men, delaying where we should have pushed forward, and hesitating when we should have struck a blow—while this has been and is the policy of the government, the rebels have been gathering strength, gaining advantage, and prolonging what they call their "national existence." Loyal men have been the silent witnesses of the effects of such a policy, until they behold the influence augmenting to one of real dan ger. The government, in the free states, is nu longer a symbol of power— at least it is nq longer regarded with the respect and the con& dence which were its support and shield obi months ago. If any man double this let him , peruse the newspaper organs of the party, that has set itself up as the opponents of this. government Let loyal men note and ponder . the daily growing sentiments of this opposition, and if the fact does not strike terror to the peo ple who are solicitous for the safety of the gov ernmeut, then has regard for it dithiniebecli where we have only a right to look for its last, hopes of safety. The loyal men of the loyal states have before them a rough road to travel, and daily as cumulating rugged influence with which to con tend. Henceforth every loyal man in the land must make up hie mind to surer for the princi ples which he represents. The miserable dem agogues in the north, who have allowed their success to be chained to the influence and the behests of slavery who have sacrificed northern interests and who erected them selves on the degradation of northern labor— these men are determined, if they can, once more to make the interests of the free states, subservient to those of slavery and treason. Henceforth, the issue will become broader and longer, until the test of citizen ship will be made, in the free as it is now in the slave states, not on the loyalty of Americans to the government as it is represented by a na tional administration—but on their adhesion to' and approval of the franchises of slavery. To this end, it is the purpOse of the Democratic party to force the people. Will the people submit ? Will loyal men behold the effort made, and not attempt to meet and resist its ' influence ? GEN. floszcaass, by hie late brilliant victory at Corinth, and the excellent style in which he followed that victory up, has won golden opin ions everywhere. One of the uncalculated re sults of Rosemarie' energy is, that the ; Louisville .Tournal has read therein a lesson which it can apply with good effect to Buell. Dom it not mean that in the following P den. Rosecrans has entitled himself ;to a vas e Measure of gratitude by showing to the rest of the generals of the United Suttee now the ad vantages of victory should be ust.d. If such an example AB his had been set in the early part of the war, and faithfully followed afterward, we believe that the rebellion would ere this have. beauclxned up and closed out. There can be no millitary fact more indisputable than that an enemy beaten and crippled is battle should be instantly and Apirously followed up, pressed anon,.

It is fortnnttte that we have at least one general who, when he gains a victory, knows what to do with it. —ln the same paper in which this eulogy appears, the leading editorial article commences thus : "Our hopes are not realized by the news from Buell and Bragg Ii appears, that, in parsing through or beyond Crab Orchard, Bragg was about seventeen miles ahead of Buell. We doubt very much now whether Buell can catch Bragg at all, unless the latter deliberately chooses to be caught." After describing the situation, and speculat ing on the probable result of Bragg's safe escape into East Tennessee, the writer closes iu the fol lowing uncomfortable tone of one dissatisfhd, if not despondent : "Affairs in Kentucky have ceased to be thril ling. The voice of the cloud has died away, and nothing is left for the present but a dull cold patter of rain." We think, from the above, that Buell's own friends have about got their eyes opened at last, so as to see him in the light of truth and com mon sense, net such as he appeared to their prejudiced . and partizan vision. Incidents and Anecdotes of the War• On the second day of the battle of Corinth, Mrs. Wilson and her daughter, who resides in a cottage just behind Battery Richardson, dis covered that they were in about as hot a place as could be found, fled from their dwelling and dropped down into a thirty foot well, the storm of lead and iron whizzing harmlessly above them. But in the midst of the bath le a horse which fled frantically over the field, attempted to leap across the mouth of the well, but struck the windlass, and his hind quarters fell into the orifice. The poor women expected to be crushed. The horse struggled furiously with his fore feet, and the women waited their fate in horror. At last, however, the horse by des perate efforts extricated himself, and they were saved, 'Poney" Grove is a soldier in the 27th Ohio. He is thus nicknamed because he is the biggest "infant" in the regiment. At the battle of Corinth, while the enemy were flying from Battery Robinett, "Poney" observed a rebel moving to the rear waving a handkerchief as a flag of truce. 'Toney" drew a bead upon him and tiring brought him down. Upon proceeding to his victim he found he was mor tally wounded. "Wall," said "Poney," jam • ming the butt end of the piece on the ground and leaning forward upon it, "you was a pretty fool for month.' ' wasn't you ?" What was yon doin' with that white rag skedaddlin that way? You might o' know'd I'd a dropped you. Why didn't you come in, then you'd. a been s de." The poor fellow confessed that "perhaps he was wrong ; he was sorry he did not come in." "Poney" was very kind to him, but 'twas no use. He died. The mats of hair about the battle-field of C,orinth'presented a most forbidding spectacle. The spots were men fell were saturated with blood, and to-day you can distinctly discern the exact position where many died by their hair. It was impossible to bury all the dead within two days. Wing that period 'their bodies were horribly swollen, and when the burying parties took them up for interment, every particle of hair fell from their heads in a mass, and spread out upon the ground like cir order mate. A graphic story is related about Gen. Pope. He was very familiar with one of the officers on his staff when he had a command in the West. When General Pope was starting for Washington to take command of the Army of Virginia, he sent one 4:4' his staff back for something he bad left at his old headquarteri. This officer met Pope's friend, and after saying good-bye, he rode away. Pope's friend hailed him before he got out of hearing. He dashed back at a gallop and asked what was wanted. "Give my compliments to General Pope, and tell him he's a fool ;.his grave is dog," was the reply. When General Sill's division left Frankfort the last thing they did was to remove the two monster cannon from their position on the hills over South Frafikfort. Some Union men of Frankfort, during the night, went over to the spot and planted two empty beer kegs in the place of the cannon, and covered them with a tarpaulin. All next day a lot of ktov gao's cavalry were scouting around the kegs, but, dared not enter Frankfort for fear of being ohatged' upon. On Wednesday night bur 'forces abandoned the kegs, when they made a bold and daring charge . on the "tarpaulin beer keg battery, and- captured Lit without the loss of a man. The Oaptalo acknowledged that he hadl been sold by the Yank, and it was not until' then that they were aware of the fact that, General Sill's whole corps bed left Frankfort.; But General Dumont's forcer; soon let them. Itnow that it was not the "battle of the kegs' when he attacked them. .It was three men and two empty beer kegs that kept the rebels from burning all the bridges in, the neighbor hood of Frankfort.

The State Treasurer it seems has paid the United States !Assistant Trvasnrer, on account of the direct tax levied in California for national purposes, slity-three thousand dollars in legal tender notes. The money was paid into the State Treasury in gold, and much iedignation is man ifested against the Treasurer for changing the gold for notes before settling, with the United States Treasurer. The government _formally protests against the State speculating at, the expense of the National Government, and the public is apparently in his iavor. It is thought She Legislature will disaPproie of such finan iieering end compel the Treasurer to hand over, for the:benefit of the general , Government,. whatever profit the State realized.

More Cotton Burned Sear Memphis. Reported Capture of Island No• 10 ..--,HD.,--.. The steamer Catonhala was fired into by the rebels, on Saturday morning, thirty miles below Memphis, and one man wounded. The steamer Gladiator was attacked by a band of rebels, while loading cotton, twenty.five miles below Memphis, the same day. Two persons were killed and some wounded. The rebels then fired the boat, but the flames were extinguished without doing much damage, and the boat es caped. The rebels continue to burn cotton in the neighborhood of Memphis. It is said that Price has been reinforced by 16,000 Texans, and that more arriving daily. Steamers from Commerce, Mo., report all quiet there. The rebels sacked the town, and carried off $3,000 worth of goods and a num ber of horses.

Gen. Dumont passed through here this even ing, en route for Indianapolis. One hundred and fifty rebel prisoners from Frankfort and Leitington, and three hundred paroled Union prisoners from Cox's Creek, ar rived here to-day. They lett at three o'clock on Monday morning, and up to two o'clock this afternoon had had nothing to eat, Morgan having destroyed all the captured provisions that he could not carry away. Morgan's men changed clothes with many of our prisoners, and his band are now said to be clothed iwFedersi uniforms. • Doubtful rumors say that the bridges over Rolling Fork and Bacon creek have been de stroyed by the rebels. Right Commissioners, vent by the Chicago Sanitary Commission, who were captured near Cox's Creek, have arrived here. Morgan's men took all their supplies. The rebels at Cox's Creek captured Capt. T. B. Lewis, postmaster of Wood's Division, with all his mails, containing several thousand let ters, the money from which the rebels took, and then destroyed all the letters. Lieuts. Neff, Fourth Ohio Cavalry, and Choate, Fifth Ohio Cavalry, arrived, en route north ward. They were captured near Bards town on Monday; and paroled, while proceed ing to yiu their respective regiments, after having been out on government service. Choate had two commissions for Governor Tod for transmissions, one whereof wus for Colonel Anderson, Sixth Ohio Infantry, on the. back of which Morgan endorsed: "Approv ed, John 11.

It seems to us like the sudden termination of a beautiful vision ; or, like the still more sud den stoppage of the most entrancing note in the sweetest music, which converts melody into melancholy, that Ida should have died—died! when most enshrined in love—died when her infant heart and mind were just expanding into the first, fresh beauty and attraction of childhood. Arid let it is so! We feel the dreadful fact pressing at our heart. It records itself in our tears, and her monument has al ready been erected in our memory. It may be sinful mournfully to resist, just for a moment, the decree which struck this darling down. It may be impious to ask why the shaft was not sped where less of love and beauty would have been sacrificed. God forgive us if it is so ! The sin was conceived with our great love for chit dreu—and while heaveu continues to claim such beauty and childish perfection as go down into the little grave of Ida, once more to bloom in terrestrial scenes, parch must continue to be a barren waste and a cheerless abode. The assurance that such lost ones are in Heaven, can be better appreciated by those who have never been stricken, than those who have felt the full anguish of such a bereavement. Time and faith alone can afford sufficient consolation for such harts. Perhaps Ida was too beautiful and sweetly innocent for this.world. We at leas; lay this consolation to our hearts. That she was a most remarkable child, those who loved her best will longest remember. Young as she was, she knew that there was a God—a Saviour —a Heaven, which is inhabited by the innocent, of which Christ himself has said, "Of such is the Kingdom of Heaven." Her last words, as if inspired by the scenes then breaking on her vision, were that she was going away—far away behind the stars—far, tar, to Heaven. Could a sage have uttered oroiounder wet ds of true prophecy ? No ! And Ida is in Heaven ! CAIRO, Oct. 21 SI the matter of the assignment of Henry I H.
