THE DIFFERENCE
In the South, or where the rebels have the
power, there is no difference of opinion tolerated
in reference to the interests of the Confederacy.
Wherever the dominion of Jeff Davis extends,
there a forced respect of his authority is en
joined, and thus the people, with tongues and
lands and lives are devoted to its success. Had
it not been for this voluntary and forced una
nimity, this union of necessity, this harmony of
force, the rebellion would have fallen to pieces
in six months after its leaders struck its first
blow at the Union. Jeff. Davis is a villain of
the sagacity adequate to a knowledge of such a
fact, and hence the intolerance with which he
insist* on loyalty to his government. All con
science, all conviction, all opinion, all honor,
must gave way to the one absorbing and over
shadowing purpose of destroying the Union,
of blotting out freedom, and of making the
prestige of a favored aristocracy as it exists in
the power of slavery, thoroughly and perma
nently successful. The men of the South who
oppose this purpose, are no longer dwellers in
their tormer homes. The loyal men of the
South are not known as such fairly and openly
before the front of rebellion. Such as these are
either fugitives and outcasts, pilgrims in other
or wanderers among the mountains and wil
derness of their own states. Thus treason
tolerates no differences. It exacts allegiance
and enforces support, or it expels and crushes
out wherever it has power. On the other hand,
in the loyal states, the power and majesty of the
government seem to be the mere toys of poli
ticians, the derision of seeret traitors, and the
objects for which the loyal masses are expected
to suffer and bleed and die. It is no common
thing to hear a loud-mouthed locofoco berate
the President, the Cabinet, the government, the
laws and the Union. Our very majesty is made
a mockery. The force we possess within our
selves is doubted or denied—the wealth that
Is so freely offered, of life and resources, ridi
culed and resisted as of uo avail in the
struggle for peace, for unity and pros
perity. If this is tolerated, we of course
cannot succeed. We cannot succeed against
our open, armed traitors, Vl pile our se
cret enemies are left to riot in their criticisms
and denunciations of our government. Unless
the government makes itself master of the sit
uation—master at its own threshold, success
will not and cannot crown its efforts to put
down rebellion. This is both reasonable and
practicable. If a cer tain class of journalists and
certain cliques of politicians are to be tolerated
in their persistent attacks on the government
—on the manner of conducting the war—on
the war itself, the every lite that is lo•.t in bat
tle and every dollar that is spent to support
those fighting for the Union, must prove a use
less and a reckless waste. This government
must be respected in the loyal, before it
can be restored in the disloyal states. Those
who seek its ruin, and who seem so desperately
resolved to rush the Union out of existence,
must either be forced from their purposes or be
compelled to take up arms in defence of their
dogmas and their treason. 'ln permit these
men any longer thus to engage in their
plots, is to invite a disgrace and a defeat which
the world is not prepared to accept for the
American Union.
STRINGENT ARMY ORDERS
The Army of the West has now at its head a
leader who seems determined not only to elevate
its military standard, but also to preserve its
moral effectiveness In proof of this we sub
mit the following order :
" lIMADQUARTMRS, 14TH ARMY CORPS,
DKPARTMRNT OF THR CIINEIRRLAND,
BuWI.INO GREEN, KY., Nov. 6, 1862.
The following order has been received from
the Secretary of War, and is published for the
information of the army :
" WASHINGTON, Nov. 3, 1862.
' 4 ' MAJOR GENERAL ROSEORANS :
you ask, promptly to muster out orlittamiss from
the service (Seers for flagrant misdemeanors
and crimes, such as pillaging, drunkenness and
misbehavior before the enemy, or on guard
duty, is essential to discipline, and you are au
thorized to use it. Report of the facts in each
case should be immediately forwarded to the
department, in order to prevent improvident
restoration.
"By order, EM. STAN FON,
" Secretay of War.
" W. S. Bosecrans, Major General . Command
lug.' "
Of course Gen. Ro;ecrans would not have
asked for the powers delegated to him by the
Secretary of War, had he not been convinced
that the Army of the West needed the reform
which such stringency only could effect. Be
ing convinced of the existence of the excesses
which he desires to eradicate, Rosecrans is not
the man to stop long for reflection. This re•
Section must come after he has cured the evil,
and then he can reflect that he has done man
kind, the country and army a noble service.
The order which confers on Gee. Rosecrans
the power to muster out of service pillaging,
drunken or misbehaving officers, should be ex
tended to every division of the army. Indeed,
when the walks of intemperance are displayed
in the face of a man, and when his reputation
is notorious as a drunkard, nu man should he
mustered into the service with a commission,
by any of the mustering officers of the army or
navy. Such discretionary power should at once
be given to all mustering officers ; and if fairly
exercised, it would be an economy to the nation
hi human life, in dollars and cents, in property,
and in the reputation and confidence which are
essential to success. We hope that the War
Department will see the necessity of tlius ex
tending the power of this order.
LABORERS' WAGES
Our reference to the wager of labor, a few
days since, has stimulated some of our cotem
poraries to write and print articles on the same
subject. One of these has made the discovery
that the question of the price of labor is now
being seriously considered by the sons and
daughters of toil. The unprecedented rise
in the price of nearly all the necessaries of
life, caused by the combined effects of taxes
and the inflation of the currency, falls with
great severity upon the laboring classes who
have families dependent upon their earnings
for support. The laboring classes have never
been too well paid, and some of then have
been compelled by circumstances to work for
wages miserably insufficient to support their
reasonable wants, and in these times the ad
vance in wages has not kept pace with the
advance in the price of food and clothing and
other indispensable articles of consumption.
This is always the fate of the laborers, for it
has become an axiom, that in the fluctuations
of prices, wages are always the first to fall and
the last to rise.
The men who have been obliged to practice
the strictest economy to support their fami
lies on a dollar, or a dollar and a half a day,
now find that 'they are utterly unable to live
and pay the enhanced prices for the necessaries
of life. With a large class retrenchment of
expenditures to meet the present exigency 6
impossible, because their wages have been
barely sufficient for their support when the
prices of everything they are obliged to buy
were much less than they are now. Higher
wages, or want and suffering, therefore, are the
alternatives presented to these people.
Impelled by the pressing necessities of the
times, and in the exercise of reasonable forecast
for their own protection, there is a general
movement among mechanics ai.d laborers, to
organize their efforts to secure an increase of
wages. In these movements they usually in
clude with the demand for higher wages a
limitation of the hours of labor. Herein they
exercise great wisdom, for, as after ail, the
great law of supply and demand must govern
wages, the limitation of the hours, while af
fording opportunities tor physical rest and in
tellectual Improvement, will tend to diminish
the excessive supply of labor which has kept
down wages.
So far as we are informed, the employers
have generally been disposed to concede the
justness of the demand for increased wages,
and have made the concessions with a good
will. This is as it should be, for it is clearly
for the true interest of both employer and em
ployed that they should preserve the, most
kindly relations by mutual consent to a just
system of compensation for labor. If they fail
to do this, obstinate wrangling will ensue,
leading to "strikes" which by interrupting in
dustry will damage both parties ; although the
diversion of a million of laboring men from the
industrial pursuits, to the army and navy, has
so reduced the supply of laborers, that in case
of "strikes," the laborers will be pretty sure
to carry their point and compel.an advance in
wages.
The supply of labor in the various branches
of mechanical and other industry throughout
the north is not likely to be excessive for many
years to come, and therefore wages must gen
erally be higher than in times pail. The in
exorable necessity for re-establishing productive
industry upon the desolated lands of the south
ern rebels, which in spite of all speculations and
theories, met give employment and sustenance
to the loyal black population, will soon become
apparent to ail. When this great fact shall be
realized, there will be a need of a vast number
of the intelligent and enterprising men of the
north to go to the south and re-organize the
social and industrial structure. The govern
ment will then devise some system by which
they may occupy and own the lands which they
are to redeem from desolation. This diversion
of men from their old industrial pursuits for
the purpose of regenerating the south must re
lieve the competition of laborers in the north,
and secure higher rates of wages, while the in
creased production of the south under the new
system of free industry, will give more abundant
supplies of the necessaries of life, and at cheaper
prices. Then will the laboring white men of
the north see clearer than perhaps they now do,
that they will shale the blessings which will
flow from giving freedom and doing justice tf
the laboring black turn of the south, and will
under.tand the great truth, that God has so
bound up together the interests of the whole
human race that all must suffer when any are
wronged.
THR FAILURE OF MARTYR HAZING
The press that heretofore persisted in sus
taining Gen. McClellan in his many mortifying
mistakes—mistakes which cost the nation so
dearly in men and money—have been endeavor
ing to make a martyr of him, by forcing the
people to believe that hundreds and thousands
are daily rushing to Trenton to assure Gen.
McClellan he is great, that he has friends, and
that he will be somebody some of these days.
The New York Herald, that daily resume of libels
and lies, went so far as to print a speech which-
McClellan never delivered. All this is done on
the same principle which has so often hereto
fore failed in the attempt of making a whistle
of a pig's tail, and to show our readers that this
attempt at creating a furore in favor Of a sol
dier who was relieved because he failed to do
his duty, we quote from the Trenton Gazelle.
That journal, tired of hearing of crowds which
never existed except in the foolish imagination
of our journalis'ic exaggerationists, comes out
with a flat denial of the reports :
" A number of gentlemen," it says, " from
different parts of the state, as well as from other
states, have called upon Gen. McClellan ' but
the absurd reports of crowds rushing here from
all directions are entirely unfounded. An in
spection of the hotel registers will show that
there has been no unusual number of strangers
in Trenton during the week. In fact, the cu_
riosity to see the General seems to be very lim
ited, and a stranger visiting Trenton would not,
from anything visible, imagine that there was
any unusual interest manifested, or that any
' distinguished stranger' was in our midst "
—So mach for . those who seek to make mar
tyrs of those who simply failed in the discharge
of a delegated duty.

REBEL NEWSPAPERS —A rebel paper published
in Louisiana is printed on the inside of ordi
nary wall paper. The Houston Telegraph and
the Galveston News have come down to small
brown paper such as grocers use. Many of the
Mississippi papers are lingering in the last stages
of contraction. They appear in all aorta of fan
tastic shapes and colors, exhibiting alarming
symptoms of. the fatal newspaper epidemic in
the rebel land.
Emorzox OP Coxonsssmex IN Noma CA.ao-
LniA.—The Newbern Progress of the 12th of
November declares on authority that no war
rant will be issued by Governor Stanly for the
election of Members of Congress, except there
shall be a desire manifested to that end by the
good people of North Carolina.
THE Naw Yong EVENING POST declares that
Gen. Fremont is not to have any command of
any description, at present, in the army. The
same paper also declares that neither General
Halleck or the President summoned General
Fremont to Washington. He visited that city
solely on private business
A BARS TIMIL-A Thieves' Ball. —At one of
the public halls, on Tuesday night, was a rare
sight. A committee wait.d upon the proprie
tor, and hired the hall, representing that they
wanted it for a ball for a society called the
"Farmer Boys." As such it was duly advertis
ed. It came off as above said. Soon after the
ball pencd, the proprietor of the hall discover
ed that he had been imposed upon. Instead of
being, as he supposed, "Farmer Boys," the
company comprised six hundred men and
women, of whom one-third or thereabouts
were professional thieves. The lessee of the
ball was alike amaz:d and indignant. A num
ber of citizens, laying aside their respectability,
participated in the affair as a matter of curiosi
ty, but we have the authority of the Chief of
Police for describing it as above. Aristocratic
thieves from other cities were present. Chief
Franklin informs us that about a dozen of them,
in all their glory, were fellow passengers with
him in the train from New York that night.
They came on purposely to be present at the
dance.
Some of the "ebeeneys" were very elaborate
ly got up, and the females wore resplendent in
satins arid finer sorts of laces. While upon
festive pursuits they observe all the proprieties
of life, and make it a point of honor, if they
succeed in getting into a respectable hotel, to
observe all the unities. There was a fracas at
the hall about 5 o'clock in the morning, which
drew the attention of the police. A man about
town, in this city, attempted freedom with a
thief's female companion, and a knock-down
was the result. The thief fired a pistol, but
missed his mark. The man-about-town very
wisely refused to make a charge, though the
ball grazed his head. Upon reflection, he con
cluded that his presence at a fandango of thieves
might prejudice his standing in society.—Phi/a.

GEN. HOOKER'S GRAND DIVISION ADVANCING
SUSINBR AND DIANKKIN DOVE TO-DAY
WARREN TON, Nov. 17.
The whole army will be in motion when this
meets the eyes of the reader.
Grneral Hooker was advancing by daybreak
this morning He will be followed to day by
the grand divisions of Sumner and Franklin.
Jackson- is reheating behind the Mammas
Gap. He lingers in the valley to observe our .
movements, and try to entrap a train of stores
occasionally. In Ibis he has failed several times
of late, and is now falling back towards Char
lottesville.
Our army moves with renewed and buoyant
spirits, and we may look for the happiest re
sults whenever and wherever the enemy is
found.
General Burnside has not been idle during
the recent brief pause, and bis active operations
now entered upon will be likely to bother the
rebels quite as much as some of tlo ir heretofore
moves upon the board have puzzled our officers.
The firing heard Saturday mornine occurred
between the Warrenton Springs and Fayette
ville, and wag an artillety duel between the
rebels and a Penusylvan a battery. The CMS
nettles on our Fide were three men wounded.
Stirring news way be looked for in a day or
two.
Preparations for an Active Cam
paign in the West.
The Rebels In Arkansas 45,000 Strong,
MOVEMENTS OF OUR FORCES
Generale Herron, of the Frontier Army
Steele, and Hovey are among the recent arri
vale at the Planters' House.
Important movements and counter move
ments are on foot and are discussed in military
circles.
Gent, Davidson and Herron will leave soon
for their respective commands.
The correspondence of the Missouri Democrat
says matters with the army frontier in this
State are in statue quo. Preparations are being
made, however, which indicate that before a
great' while the army will be somewhat reor
ganized, and several volunteer regiments of the
new levy added to the army in exchange for
the Missouri State militia regiments, which are
to occupy towns in the State.
This change is gratifying to all parties,
The enemy, in Arkansas, is reported to be
$20,000 strong ender Hindman, and 25,000 un
der Holmes. The former is near Ozirk, and the
latter near Little Rock. '
Northwestern Arkansas, - whence we drove
the rebels, is yet quiet; and undisturbed except
from small bands of guerillas. It is not likely
the rebels will again attempt to occupy that
portion of the state.
Gen. Blunt, with the First division of the
army, occupies Northwestern Kansas and a
portion of Indian Territory. He is working
the salt mines there, which are in excellent
order and yielding an abundant supply. In
this division there are three or four regiments
of loyal Indians.
Gen. Blunt 'reports the' desertion of many
disloyal Indians; thine ttre rout of Cooper and
Sandwater, and says many are coming over to
'oin his forces.

STERLING'S AMBROSIA
FOR THE HAIR.
A HANDSOME HEAD OF HAIR is a crown
2 of glory. With proper care and culture
it will last as a protection to the head as long
as the nails do to the fingers, or the eyelashes
to the eyes. STRRLIITO'S A/LSROSIA is the only
article yet discovered that will bring about the
desired results. It is a preparation the result
of science and experiment ; the science point
ing out what was needed, and experiment find
ing the required properties in certain roots,barks,
and herbs. It has consumed a long time in its
preparation, has been tested by persons of most
undoubted reliability in this city, and is by them
pronounced perfect, and the only satisfactory
article, and is now offered to the public. The
proprietors, determined to give it the most
thorough tests, practical and chemical, and now
certain that it will make the hair grow luxuri
antly on Bald Heads, Preventing Grayness and
Baldness, Reinvigorating and Beautifying the
Hair, rendering it soft and glossy.
Ds STwaramo's AMBROSIA is a stimulating,
oily extract of roots, barks, and herbs, and,
aside from its neatness, permanency, and gloss,
it is medically adapted to preserve and add to
the beauty of the hair. The only article yet die
cowed that will Cure the AMIE of the &alp, and
Cases the Hair to Grow.
