The above does not include the army
vote, of which we have no definite infer
=Won. Despatches received yesterday
and last night say that the Ninth, Col.
Jackson, gives Rhodes a small majority;
that the Thirteenth, Col. Rowley's, gives
113 majority for Woods,sand 110 majority
for Blackmore; Co', Rippey's regiment,
200 majority for Rhodes, and Col. Black's
300 majority for Rhodes. We do not con
sider these rumors very reliable, but if
correct they put Blackmore "out cf the
woods" and give Mr. Rhodes a reasonable
prospect of election.
THE BANK RESUMPTION.
On Tuesday last our banks of issue,
which suspended specie payments last
spring, resumed and are now redeeming
their notes in specie. This was a com
mendable move and p - oyes that, even
in these times, when b_bsiness generally
is so much prostrated, our banks are
sound and reliable. They have the
means to pay one hundred cents for
every dollar of their issues and will do it
if it should be required of them. The
business community will appreciate this
movement on the part of the banks, as
it will be of great benefit to them in their
daily transactions.
In this connection we may express the
hope that this resumption, with the ad
ditional facilities given for procuring
specie, will have the effect of increasing
the subscriptions to the national loan
here, which have now reached nearly
four hundred thousand dollars. This is
a small figure for so wealthy a district :
we think the amount of the loan taken
here should reach at least one million
dollars, and hope it may before the
books are olosed. We have many libe
ral and patriotic citizens who have not
yet subscribed to the loan and these
should at once come forward and con
tribute according to their ability. The
investment is secure and pays a hand
some interest.
KENTUCKY SE NAT ORS
The Louisville 1) , ',,t,p,-rat thus discourses
about the Senators from that State
"Our Senators are heart and soul with
the enemies of their Government. They
have chosen to link their political for
tunes with the men striving to break up
a government this State is as earnestly
striving to preserve. These are noto
rious facts that cannot be overlooked.
They seem to have forgotten their State
and their Government in this crisis, in
their affection for the enemies of both .
When the State is invaded, and armies
are mustering for our defence, what are
these Senators doing? They who should
be foremost are, to say the least, silent.
Those who are not for us now are against
us; and these Senators are not for us,
to say the least. One of them is absent
and the other is dumb. They are both
alike. Their friends, who know well
their position, denied any difference be
tween then. and we agree that, so far as
misreprei entation of the State is con
seemed, there is no difference.
"How utterly preposterous that such
men should hold offices in the United
States Senate—men whose friends are
for resisting the payment of tax to the
Federal Government, who make no dis
tinction between the United States and
the Confederate States, except that in
all their feelings and sympathies they
are with the latter! What right have
they to a seat in the United Suites
Senate, to operate against the (iovern
nient and take pay out of the Treasury ,
whilst they love the treason against it 't
"In the better days of the Republic
this would not have been tolerated for
a day.
"It is true that some Southern Rights
men make a feeble attempt to say that
Breckioridge and Powell do represent
the State—that Kentucky is with them.
They can't bo convinced that the people
mean 'No,' although they have three
times said it at the polls. No number
.of votes would convince them any bet
ter. The people, they think, must be
mistaken. It is time this was dropped.
At least it can't be expected that such
pretences will be listened to. The peo
ple are against this secession movement,
and . tmeompromising against it. Th ey
want no anal representatives as Brack
ixtridge and Powell; and the Legislature
In response to a demand almost univer
sal, instructed these men to resign
HIS NAILE.—The man shot by the rebel
pickets about sunrise au Monday morning,
the 80th nit , at Big Falls, was Ro,bert

A Nortlkexa Cotton.T.ree.
ti;erythlng connected with tho produc'
tion of cotton in any portion of the world,
except the Southern States, is now of es
pecial interest, our manufacturers are to
be supplied as well as those of England.—
It is, therefore, a question of great interest
plio us as well as the rest of the world, to
know where the cotton is to come from to
• - -
supply our needs as well BB theirs. The
N. Y. C o mmercial Advertiser of the Ist,
states that a Mr. R. C. Kendall, of Mary
land, of whose reliability they aro fully
satisfied, has called upon them and exhib•
iced the bolls of a newly discovered cotton
plant, which he found in Peru, SJuth
America. It is stated that in its general
qualities the fibre of the plant cultivated
by Mr. Kendall has been pronounced by
cotton brokers equal to the best Sea Island
variety.
It seems that Mr. Kendall spent several
years in South America, and while explora
ing the country in that region of the An
des, and not far from the fortieth parallel
of latitude, came upon a magnificent cotton
tree, differing in appearance from any
plant of the kind that had ever before come
under his notice. It was found in the
month of May (our November,) when the
ground was covered with several inches of
snow. The elevation of the locality was
such that snow usually lay on the ground
for three months in the year. At that
time the tree had shed its foliage. but the
cotton pods remained, having fully burst,
and covering the tree with a rich growth
of the glossy fibre. Subsequently Mr. K.
lighted upon large numbers of the same
plant. learned its habits and undertook to
culture.

The tree is said by the natives to attain
the age of nearly a century in some cases
About the third year it begins to yield a
crop of bolls, without seeds which grow at
its extremity only after the planthas reached
its maturity. The ginning process is thus
effectually dispensed with. It size is found
to average that of the peach in this oountry,
the bushy portion forming a beautiful cone
resting on a stream which is sometimes six
or eight feet high and as many inches in
diameter. Mr. Kendall claims that in car•
lain favorable soils and situations, two
thousand pounds of cotton can be produced
from this tree on a singe acre, and that
half that amount can be depended upon as
an average. Five hundred pounds per
acre is held to be a good yield from the
ordinary plant. Another remarkable state•
ment is that it developea a finer fibre and a
longer staple as it approaches to the colder
regions. Mr. K. is confident that it can
be successfully cultivated on suitable soils
in any part of thelbelt where Indian corn
grows. Mr. Kendall proposes to bring the
subject before the business community, in
a public lecture.
Considerable allowance must always be
made for the extravagant statements of a
new discoverer, but if this plant shall pos
secs one half the qualities claimed for it, it
will prove of immense importance. One
thing is certain, this rebellion must cave in
before many months, or the world must
manage to get on without southern colt( a,
and any discovery which will advance the
production of it will be hailed as a public
benefit. We hope Mr. Kendall's diseov
ery may prove to be all be claims for it.

IT is stated as a fact that an Indiana
clergymen, during his prayer on the
late fast day, used the following lan
guage : "Oh, Lord, had the FRat done
113 well as the Hoosier state in furnish.
ing men to put down this rebellion, we
would not be under ; the necessity of
calling on Thee."
Retarn of Rev. RI.. patter.--the,lteal..,
11.:affir-Vqke""iir4ltiftWer-6f Matte-
of Lexington.
The Rev. Dr. Butler, chaplain of the
rish Brigade, arrived in Chicago on
Saturday last. Most of the time Since
the.battle or Lexington he laatr been
spending at. St. Louis.
Dr. Butler pronounces the rebel
Get eral Price's official report of the
battle of Lexington to be grossly false.
He says that nearly every third house
in Lexington is a hospital containing
wounded rebels, and for miles along ev
ery road leading into the country, the
houses have been converted into hos
pitals. The statement of Price, abou
the small number of killed and wounded
on the rebel side, was s petty quibble.
The regularly enrolled army under
Price's command was scarcely 10,000
men; but in addition to these were some
eighteen or twenty thousand men, com
posing independent regiments, compa
nies and squads, who fought on their
own hook. Price used is vast flood,
wood army, as well as his own 10,000,
in capturing Mulligan and his 2,700
brave soldiers; but he omitted to give
any account of their killed and wounded
in his report, confining himself to his
own command, and grossly underrating
the loss even among them. Price says
that but six of his men were killed in
the fight on the 12th, whereas, Dr But
ler assisted to bury the bodies of seven
teen, which the rebels did not carry
away.
The captured officers were all released ,
on their parole—that is, their word of
honor not to take up arms again until
exchanged according to the usages of
war. Col. Mulligan, however, refused
to give his parole upon any condition.
It is believed that if he is not soon re
captured by Gen. Fremont, his release
will be obtained by exchange. Gen
Fremont cannot afford to permit so gal
lant and brave an officer to remain long
a prisoner of war. We understand that
Fremont has already recommended him
to the President for promotion to the
rank of Brigadier General.
Dr. Butler was not wounded, as has
been rep rted. The ball which with a
little better aim would ha . ve taken his
life, passed through his clothing and
severed his watch chain, but did no
other damage. Dr. Butler was in the
hospital at the time, assiv.tiug the
wounded and administering the coujela
tion of religion C 3 the dying. The
wretch who attempted to take his
life had been watching for an olpor
tunity niore than half an hour. The
Doctor thinks he mistook him for an
officer, supposing the style about his
neck to be au article of uniform indi
cating the rank of a commander.
The horse which the rebel General is
reported to have presented to Dr. But
ler, on his leaving camp, was the Doc..
tor's own horse—the one which was
presented to him by his friends in Chi
cago--a circumstance which essentially
diminishes the magnanimity of the
transaction on Price's part.

Lord Palmerston's Caution and Polic
43
10i G 6 164
(12 b:, lob
On Wednesday last Mr. Grant Duff, M.
P. for the Edgin Burghs, addressed the
constituency of Elgin in the Cern Market
Hall. The meeting was at one o'clock,
and there was a good attendance.
Mr. Doff, in his review of the Palmers
ton policy in the House of Commons, said:
—Tie same good sense and moderation
which was so conspicuously displayed by
the House of Commons before the outbreak
of the war in Italy two years ago, prevent •
ed any discussion of American agairs dor..
me the past session. When we consider
how great was the temptation to the con
servative party to use the events which
have been taking place in the United
States, as a text for a warning to reform
ers in the spirit of Mr. Gregory's speech
of last year; when we consider how anxi
ously the merchants engaged in the Amer.
Man trade must have looked for some ex
pression of governmental opinion about
the various questions of international law
which will probably require solution be
fore this deplorable contest is at an end ;
when we consider what a field was open
for anti-slavery, anti-Brighdan and anti.
Yankee declamation-1 think we may
congratulate ourselves on that long prac.
Lice of free discussion which. has taught us
when to be silent as well as when to speak.
[Hear.] The humblest member of the
House of Commons, speaking in the House
of Commune, has a certain responsibility
because his words are read, at least in for
eign countries, got as his own words only.
The friendly arid intimate relations in
which we meet here make reticences un
neccessary, and I do not hesitate to say that
while I deeply regret this fratricidal strug_
gle between the North and South, I should
not have been sorry to see them separate,
if they could have done so without effusion
of blood. [Hear, hear.] The Northern
States would have got rid of the curse of
slavery, and with it, of the darkest shadow
on their future. [Hear, hear, and ap
plause ] They would have been left
to pursue a great and probably more
blameless destiny than that which, with a
strange, though probably a weaker infatu•
ation, they are courting for themselves,
since all pretext for further extension to
wards the South, whether in the direction
of Cuba or e!sswhere,would have been for
ever at an end. They have everything to
gain and nothing to lose by a peaceful sepe ,
ration, except, indeed, the opportunity of
doing mischief. All this their beat minds
know perfectly well; but passion as usual
is far stronger than reason, and so the dogs
of war are let slip, and we shall have hoc.
ror enough and to spare for some time to
come. Perhaps when the mist of blood
clears away, we may find North America
split into as many independent states as
we now see the Southern half of the New
World. Who shall sag that this will
necessarily be a misfortune to mankind'?

Horace McCoure, a Hartford burg
lar, now in jail for numerous offences,
was visited by his mother on fast day,
who asked the sheriff how long he
thought he would be kept in prison on
all the charges, and was told about sev
en years. MeCoure seemed to think
this was a pretty long time, but the old
woman seemed to look at things on the
brighter side, and said, "Never mi n d,
Horace, it ain't half as bad as if ye had
been sent to Fort Lafayette for betray
in' yer country.

Discipline of Volunteer Troops.
The annual ploughing match at Wat
lington took place yesterday on a farm
belonging to the Earl of Macclesfield.
Tl4Chairitian of the dinner party, in
tropitsing 'Army, Navy and Vol,
noteers.' ' The volunteer movement
,has now become a great fact; and he
was glatttO findinch a body of men de
voting themselves to the military art in
such a manner as to insure their be
coming efficient soldiers. (Cheers )
Colonel Morth, M. P., responded on
the part of the army, and expressed a
hope that another division of Volun
teers would be got up - it Watlington,
and that a practice ground would be
formed in some convenient place be
tween Thames and Watlington where
the two corps could drill together. The
remarks which he made two years ago
with regard to the immense importance
of discipline had been recently verified
by what had taken place in America.
Drill was merely a means to an end.
However perfect the drill might be, it
was worth very little without discipline
(Hear, Hear.) In America a body of
30,000 men—men undoubtedly bravo,
men of our own extraction—bad run
away like a flock of sheep. The offi
cers had no command over them, and
the men had no confidence in their offi
cers. (Hear, Hear.) If the volunteers
wished to ba of use to tlmir country,
they would find that oiseipline was the
only thing that. could render them ef
fective. One thug lia , l been witness•
ed in America that had never been wit
nessed in this country, and never
would he. Whether our men liked or
disliked the service, he was convinced
that no division of any English Regi
ment would have the courage to leave
the army the moment a fight was ex
pected. Such an occurrence was al
most unprecedented in the annals of
the world, and it was perefetly astons
log that in any country a body of men
should say,'.onr three months are up,"
and then take up their hats and walk
away. ( Hear, Hear ) This'showed an
utter want of patriotism, and how such
a thing could have happened in any
country, and especially in; America he
could not at all understand. (Hear,
Hear.)
The Queen of Spain on Negro Elmanel
patiou.—A Personal Liberty 8111 In
Old Spain.
A decision of Marshal O'Donne
Spanish Minister of War and the Col
nies, published by the Madrid Gazette
September 15, and addressed to the
Captain General of Porto Rico, des
Glares, in principle, that a slave wbo
has touched the soil of Spain must be
considered as emancipated, even with
out the consent of his former master.
The Marshal's letter is thus worded:—
'1 have laid before the Queen the let
ter which your Excellency's predeces
sor addressed to the Ministry of War ,
and the C'oloni ,, s, dated the 27th of Oc
tober, 18.53, accompanying it, by way
of proof, with the documents of the ex. ,
auaination relative to the slave Rufino
who sold himself at the Havana after
having resided for several years in the
Peninsula, on which matter he solicited
ar exp:ii.ie, declaration r2lative to the
royal order of the 29th of March, 1836
regulating the e 'editions to which
slaves from the Antilles are subjected
on coming into Spain. In conformity
with the derision of the Council of
State, and in virtue of the above men
tioned decree, her Majesty has gracious
ly been pleased to declare that B
coming from that Island a Cu
ha into Spain with their masters must
consider themselves emancipated, with
out the consent of their owners being
indispensable; that the freedomgranted
to the said slaves, in virtue of the de
cision of the 29th of March, 1836, is
not revocable, and that they acquire,by
their arrival in the mother country,
without any other act being necessary
to confirm it, the quality of free men,
even should they return to a country
where slavery is untlorized by the
laws. °TUNNEL.
THE CASE OF E B. SCHNABEL.—
The following letter from the Secre
tary of War refers to the ease of E. B.
Schnabel :
WAR DEPARTMENT,OOt. 4,1861
SIR : I acknowledge the receipt of a
communication from Col. Martin Burke,
inelosing a letter ,from E. B. Schnabel,
a prisoner at Fort Lafayette.
The person referred to is the son of
a very worthy gentleman, a citizen of
Pennsylvania, known to rue for many
years. He was educated at Princeton
College, where he exhibited considera
ble talent. He came back to Pennsyl
vania, and has been "living on his wits"
ever since. Ho is a man, I am sorry
to say, of no character, and I have no
desire to open any communication from
him; I therefore return the communi
cation forwarded by Col. Martin Ilarke,
unopened. I have the honor to be
very respectfully,
SIMON CAMERON Secretary of War.

"COVERT TRATTOR."—The New

course of tho Chicago Tribune in de

upon New Englanders to. become the
camp servants of the western troops,

"The country is one—the cause is
one—and he is worse than an open ene

times like these, seeks to divide the
country by exciting jealousies.
