Our -readers need not be alarmed at the above caption ; we do not contem plate the infliction of a political discus sion, but only to make a few observa tions, suggested by the recent course of a set of "scurvy politicians" in Pennsyl vania. We presume that no name in our po litical history has been used to mask more political depravity than that of Stephen A. Douglas. Having been strong in the affections of the masses of his party,he left behind him a reputation dear to them all, but one which a few damaged deihagogues have been endeav oring to appropriate to their own uses. These are the highwaymen—the Robert Macaire of the Democracy of our State. - Tattered fellows who, having squandered all the political capital they ever had, now endeavor to keep themselves before 'the people by extravagant and dishonest expressions of sympathy for the teach ings of Douglas. Senator Douglas well knew this seedy set of camp-followers ; they are always loudest in praises and meanest in their fawning, but re quire watching nevertheless. This small but dangerous set of deceit ful Democrats are scattered through several counties of our State, their head quarters, however, being in Philadel phia. There they meet and brood over the loss of theirvocations,and plot treason to the principles they profess to support. Any man nominated ,on the Democratic ticket, who is not of their kidney, they cannot vote for because he was not sound on the Douglas question; and, in order to prove how sound they now are themselves, they go and almost invaria bly vote the Republican ticket. Now, we have no right to object to this small class of trimmers voting for whom they please; in fact we do not object, our only point being confined exclusively to their making use of the name and fame of a great departed Democrat to give plausi bility to their deception. No one had a more ardent admiration for Senator Douglas than ourself. Our:; was no feigned exhibition of friendship, because we gave evidence of its genuine ness before he became the idol of his party. Still we have no desire to keep open his tomb and exhibit his scars ; we cannot imagine what good it would ac complish ; even sincere sorrow will not revive the dead, and if we must weep let us not do all our moaning in the streets. We cannot perceive the propriety nor the ceucy of a few bankrupt politicians who were never much thought of, especially by the Illinois Senator, now weeping o'er his untimely end, unless such crocodile sympathy be intended to benefit those who were his bitterest foes. "Douaisa is in his grave ; Alter life's fitful fever he sleeps well; Treason has done his worst.. He died leaving a great name and rep utation to his countrymen, and the only possible blemish which can attach to either is the possibility of the American people believing him, while living, the intimate of those in Pennsylvania who now use his name and fame to further their despicable ends. Ae for Breckinridge, he had better be with the dead "than on_ the tortures of the mind to live in restless extacy."— His is a lamentable, fate. Born and reared of an old and distinguished Ken tucky family,celebrated for their patriot ism, chivalry and learning, we behold him in a few short weeks transferred from the lofty arena of the U. S. Senate to the haunt of the refugee, seeking his way tothe rebel lines. He, like many others we might intention, is, we appre hend,a victim of circumstances. He had no disunion proclivities until after be coming the standard bearer of a fac tion.; the fatal..step was taken and he is lost, But as rgreat and good men, about whose ps.triotism and virtue there is no questkai, have paid the debt of nature and our country and institutions survived their fall, let us not despair of the Re public because of the recent calamities we have mentioned. Jackson and Clay, the champions and idols of rival parties, are gone ; Webster, and Wright, and Benton have also departed; still we have survived the shock. Let us, therefore, hope and pray that the present age may furnish patriots fit for the crisis of our times, and that they may be able speed ily to re-unite our country, "one and in divisible, now and forever." The crisis demands the union of us all for the sake of the Union, and no Democrat should array himself under any banner save that Which is pledged to the re-union of our confedentcY.

Efforts were being made to get the chiefs of the various tribes to meet at Fort Lincoln, on the Osage river, for the purpose of counseling with the government agents as to the proper course to be pursued. Many of the chiefs had addressed letters to the agents, copies of which the Commissioners have just received, all of which breathe not only loyal sentiments, but a determi nation to stand by the government. A delegation from the Creeks had already arrived, and were ready to treat. The Creeks have been regarded as disloyal. An agent, who had just returned from a visit to the Seminoles, states that rebel agents are busy among the Southern tribes, urging them to take np arms against the government, and endeavorihg to make treaties with them. Albert Pike, on the part of the rebels, had been very busy among the Seminoles and John Ross in be half of the Cherokees. The agent says that in almost every instance where In. dians have taken up arms against the gov ernmunt they have been coerced into it. est. SALT AT TIIIC &Jun:E.—The Scientific American says the statements regarding a want of salt in the South are incorrect.— It is supposed that the South is entirely dependent upon the North or foreign im- portation for its supply of this necessary substance, but this is not the ease. Next to New York. Virginia makes the greatest quantity of salt annually of any State is the Union. The amount manufactured by .New York is 5,593,447 bushels per annum: by Virginia, 3,650,000 bushels; by Florida, 70,000. Salt is manufactured in eleven States, the total product being 13,;.;8,447 buslielE. but this is not quit) half the amount that is required for use, as, in 1860, we imported 11,094,227 bushels, of which 10,335,256 came from England. ,taii?'The patriotism of government con tractors is notorious everywhere; but it is particularly prominent in Cincinnati.— The Gazette, of that city, has been looking over the subscription books to the govern ment :oan and remarks: "We were a good deal surprised at not finding among the subscribers any of the heavy government contractors," and that "there are houses here that have made from fifty thousand to a hundred thousand dollars on contacts, and vet they have not contributed one dol lar to the loan. Why is this?" We can• not answer, unless it is because these goy. ernment contractors go into this business to fleece instead of to assist the nationrl treasury. Bad pork bad beef and 8110,3(15, at high prices, arc too often the best evi deuces afforded of the patriotism of our government contractors. MUFTI - NO IN lowa.—There seems to have boon quite a misunderstanding of the course of the authorities of the State of lows in regard to drafting. The Diven port Gazette of October sth say; : No or ders have been issued in Washington sus pending drafting in lowa, simply because drafting has not commenced in this State, nor has the Governor had any communi cation whatever with the War Depart ment on the subject of drafting. The on iy thing done ever looking to drafting NVEt. 4 an order issued by the Adjutant General preparing for such a necessity should it arise. lowa is doing her duty, and so long as she continues to respond to the re. quisitions of the government as she now is doing, drafting will be unnecessary. THE WAY TO GET AN APPOINTMENT. An army correspondent alleges that the account which was generally published a few weeks ago of the gallant exploits of a Wisconsin Captain named Strong, who came near being taken by the rebels, but escaped by killing two secessionists and wounding another, is all bosh. Ho says an examination into the affair, reveals some most astounding facts: No cavalry have ever been at the place mentioned by him; the ball from the trooper's carbine, fired, according to Captain Strong, from the 'saddlo at himself on the ground went up throu,:i his coat, his own pieta balls tit the halo in his canteen and the bullet hole 2n hit chock could never have passed a bullet out of his mouth, and the wound itself bears unmistabable evidence of hav ing bean punctured. No one over saw the light but Captain Strong, whose revolvers, when he returned, lacked just eleven shots the exact number beard by the pickets He had an appointment pending at the time, and got it, So much for fame. The Expedition Against Mexico. Alluding to this subject, which is at present attracting much attention, a Wash ington correspondent of the Herald says that the :ntelllgenoe from our Minister to Mexico, received some days ago, is highly important. The Mexican government, it it appears, asked directly of our gov ernment, through Mr. Corwin, for a loan of from five to ten millions. Our Minister regarded it as very important just at this time that Mexico should have the money, as it would place her in a position to release:er from her present embarass manta. The government here are not in a condition, even if they had the authority, to lend Mexico that amount of money.— They have probably notified our Minister that three or four millions might possibly be had, to be applied as Mexico desires to apply it —to pay interest on the English bonds. and thus relieve her from that trouble. Uur government is determined to stand by Mexico at all hazards and pro• tact her against the encroachments of fors sign powers. Our government, accord ingly, some time ago addressed proper communications to England, Franca and Spain, to know what their intentions were respecting the contemplated expedition , against Mexico. They have received no response as yet. When they do our gov. ernment will find time to act. Cr NCINN AT I FORTIFICATIONS. The thirteen redoubts being built on the hills across the Ohio river, opposite Cincinnati, are nearly completed, the largest being on the Covington and Lexington turnpike, for eight large guns and twelve howitzers. Tip finishing touches and mounting of the givas will be completed this week, when Cipeinnati, Covington and Newport may ,regarde4 fortaied against gtaf Rebel force that can be brought in tits,te direction. ST. LOUIS ; Oct. 12th, 1861. noVedinViaii, ttvely quiet, the moat of the troops having left with the intention of catching and whipping Price. If Fremont overtakes him, which I hope he may, he will give the lie to all the charges brought against, him by Blair & Co. It is astonishing how FOOD the eastern press takes up the howl of discontent when diverted against an officer of the West. Fremont is accused of inac• tivity and incapacity, and there is talk of curt martialing him, by those who have never shown a Li alb of the energy displayed by him since he took charge of this Do. partment. He found the West in a most miserable condition. A very small army in the field, and the time of most of them about expiring, short of money and all means of defence, and Missouri threatened at all points by the rebels. Such a state of affairs would have disheartened any man of ordinary courage. The reverse of this was the effect it had on Fremont, it called into active exercise every energy of the man, and in a very short space of time he collected and organized one of the best ar mies in the world, but so many points of importance were threatened that it was ab solutely necessary for him to divide his ar my in order to defend weak place... He is now in the field actively pursuing an enemy of superior force, who is fleeing from him and will not give him battle if he can avoid it. All this has been done in the face of ob. stacles that no common man would attempt to overcome. He has been cramped in money matters ever since he took charge of this Department. Troops that should have been sent to this place have been ordered to the defence of the Capital, which has not been in danger since forty,eight hours after the national footrace on the 21st of July. He has been assailed here by those who are loud in their expressions of love for the Union, hut let no opportunity pass of giving the Ucion a stab, if thereby they can gratify a pri vate hate. And their friends in the East, in and out of position, have taken up the cry, and the inactivity of Fremont is spo ken of by many who have not the brains to understand hia position. It is strange that the authorities at Washington should accuse Fremont of be ing slow. Why don't they look nearer home? They have as fine an army as the world ever saw, lying on the Potomac at an immense expense to the government.— To what use has this army been put, other than a show for the President and Secrete , ry of War to visit weakly, or oftener, if they have a foreign Prince they wish to tickb! Lot the West have Fremont end its own troops and it will take care of FAIRNESS. THE GALLANT EXPLOIT OH' THE GUNBOAT DAYLIGHT. N. Y.

Yesterday at four o'clock p. in.. at the close of a heavy gale which had lasted for six.iy hours, it was reported by the °dicer cl the deck that a battery, wnose existence had been previously unknown to us, ated on Lynnlaaven Bay, bad opened tire upon the American ship John Clark, of Ilait incite, which had arrived fro i n Hnvro tho day previous, arid, anchor:ye ii. the bay ,luring the gale, with two anchors down, had dragged within its range. We cou ld s ee the enemy's shells dropping about the shin in all directions, and be Was evidently not enjoying his inaurniB quart d hew,. tio, all hands working with a will, we soon had our anchor on the bows, and the Daylight putting her bast toot foremost,exger for the fray. In a short time we ran down to the ship and oiened a brisk fire upon the battery,which was as v:g irou,ly returned and sustained for foray minutes, when, having effectual ly silenced their guns and thrown several hroaMiiiit.s into than, which e l le it e i, how. ever, no response, they having "shut ul. shop,'• we turned our attention towar,i2 extricating the ship from her perilous ro., s:tion, which we finally did by sending a part of our crew on board and getting her off under her canvass, having failed it) Several attempts to get a lino aboard of her to tow her off, owing to the heavy sea and strong tide prevailing. This occupied one and a half hours after we had fired the last shot, giving our adversary every opportunity to renew the combat; but he, like the "poor craven bridegroom, spike never a word." Finally we got under weigh, and anchored near the outer light ship, and, while ruminating over the events of the day, were run foul of by the John (Nark as she stood for her anch orage, smashing a portion of our upper works, starting several knees forward, carrying away one of the flukes of our anchor and doing other damage—throw , ing herself into our arms, as it were, with an nnwieldly gratitude for which we were entirely unprepared. The Clark was struck once or twice, I believe, by frag ments of shells, but sustained no material damage, and this morning, In charge of a pilot, stood on up the bay towards Bal more. While nearing the Clark, at the outset of the engagement, we were considerably astonished, after sacceeding in getting our reiterated hail answered, by receiving cent sure In no measured terms for "not having warned them," as they said on the previ. ous day; and had our sensoof duty not been superior to our feelings, we should have been sorely tempted to have let them work out their own salvation with "fear and trembling." In closing, I cannot refrain from again alluding to the spirit with which uur crew entered into the contest above alluded to, and feel assured that they will always give a similar good account of themselves when called on, for which, as Dick Swiveller observes, "town and country orders are respectfully solicited; busirese attended to with neatness and despatch." We met with no casualties in the en. gagement; but one of our seamen, while aloft on the John Clark, fell from the fore yard and fractured his arm. The West and the War A now impetus has been given to re. cruising in the West to the war, since the impudent secession hordes have swarmed into the Southern portions of Missouri and _Kentucky, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois and lowa, in addition to what they have al ready done, are daily gathering fresh troops, and the war spirit is by no means on the decline. A side from the motive of saving two important States to the Union, the people of the West have inter ests in this conflict that touch their very homes and hearthstones. Should Missouri and Kentucky be permitted to fall into the hands of the Southern Confederates, the Ohio and Mississippi valleys would feel the disaster most severely. To complete such secession victory and render it profit able to the exchequer of the South, the seizure of certain portions of Illinois, In. diana and Ohio would become a "military necessity," in order to command the rivers, and thus aggression would go on. from one object to another, until the great, in. ordinate stomach of rebellion should cease its yearnings. To nip these immeasurable evils in the bud, work must be done early—promptly. ; The theatre of war is in Missouri and Ken. Lucky, which States are of incalculable value and importance to the whole West materially, as wall as to the Union politi cally. Let the recruiting, therefore, rap idly go on, and the people of the West rally to the defence of their owls personal inter. eats and those of an imperiled country!— .l Louis Republican of the 12th inst. ARMY OF THE POTOMAC LFROM OUR SPECIAL CORRESPONDENT.] WASHINGTON, Oct. 13. So profound a calm pervades every division of our Potomac lines that to-day_ a correspondent seeks in vain acme no* field for descrip tive writing, and must be content with alluding again to the advantages gradu ally secured by McClellan's skillful shiftings of position. It will be remembered that up to a ridiculously short time preceding the date fixed for McDowell's advance, the 35,000 raw troops which marched to Bull Ran were scattered variously on both the Washington and Virginia shores. They were arranged in no or der for a swift forward movement, and threesfourths were actually thrown to gether, and formed into an army after the vanguard was already under motion, Great confusion, delay, and subsequent calamity ensued. Now, all the strate gic advances ventured by McClellan during the last month, by which the range of hills from Alexandria to a point near Great Falls is gat last) pregnably our own, seem to have been made with the view of scouring that base for an onward march of the army, which can alone make such a move met t rapid, harmonious and irresistible. At least this appears to me the great result attained by the occupation of Prospect Hill, Lewinsville, Upton's, Munson's, Mason's, and the rest. For now nearly the entire column late in Washington, having been hur ried over the river and encamped in the rear of these outposts, a truly "Grand Army of the Potomac" is stretched—wing, center, and wing— along a fifteen miles' front. It is lie-- twiny in position for a sudden forward march. Right, left, and middle are all properly placed, and the reserve con centrated behind. Batteries are dis. tributed at short and adequate inter vals, and I do not sec why McClellan may not at any moment, at twelve hours' notice even, push on in full force over the four roads ',to interior Virginia, which he now occupies and commands. His complete maintenance of the Leesburg turnpike gives him also clear passage for flank mov,onents along the entire front. It is, however, not improbable that he will feel his way cautiously to Ma. 1:18881:8, taking Fairfax Court House ere long, and then by glacier-like advan ces, crowd the enemy into fighting, re treating, or being crushed. One reason fbr this course is, that while the evi dent hesitating retirement of the rabels encourages the North to look for the offensive on our part, our artillery has not yet reached the force and practice which McClellan requires fur his final southern movement. Ere lontt the two regiments which have been lately stead ily working at field andfsieee pieces will turn out 1,600 trained artillerists, and thus twenty new batteries can be manned. Another reason for sluggish ness acres the river is a desire to await the results Of lIPW naval expedi tions, and distract the enemy more ef fectually by an advance in co-opera tion. Differences as to policy existing be tween (;eneral 111( ( - lellan and the Navy Department are said by some to have delayed the embarkation of troops from Annapolis, but I do not Lind any trust worthy grounds for such a statement. But now I wish to sak your attention to twu 'opinions, freely expressed by thoughtful peop!e, which have most serious bearing on the probabilities of the fall campaign. First—lt is believed by ninny that the rebcls, aware of their own limited means of retreat before the onset of an army so thoroughly equipped as our own, aro sending one or two regiments to Richmond, and westward, and are merely keeping up a feint in front to delay our program. That, if attacked, they will renew the Bull Run method of defense and whip us if they can; but that they hope we will not attack them. Second—Men of high standing thoroughly familiar with the country between Washington and Richmond Bay that if our army does not go for ward at once it cannot go forward at all. If the rains and frost set in at the usual time, the clayey mud between Fairfax and the Rappahannock will be utterly impassable for wagons and ar tillery—will present a barrier more formidable than mountain ranges. This oondition lasts through the winter; the soil of the region being sui goner * and the climate that one of half. rigor so opposed to military move ments. The rebels may be counting on all this. They know every inch and quality of their own ground, and will avail themselves of its advantages in the most adroit manner- These ideas support the theory that our offensive will and must be vigor ously pushed at once. One arm of our service—the cavalry —hitherto so limited in force, is ad vancing to a condition of efficiency. Half of Col. Van Alen's regiment is doing good scouting service along the upper Potomac, attached to Gen. Stone's command, and the colonel yes terday left Washington to resume ao- I tive command. A splendid horseman, accomplished officer, and earnest pa triot, Col Van Alen has thrown his whole heart and fortune into this con• test, and will see it to the successful end. His large cirole of friends at home will be glad to know of his fine health and determination, and of the increasing usefulness of his command. The Harris Cavalry Regiment (not the "Ira Harris") under Col. Davies and Lieut. Col. Kilpatrick, struck camp at Bladensburg this morning and moved over the Potomac to a point near Ball's Cross Rcads. This corps is also in rapidly improving condition, and its senior officers are well known to the public from the gallantry dis played by them at Big Bethel, where they led Duryee's advance against the rebel batteries. 4.nkivez.—The 11. B. steamer Mount Vernon, 0. S. Glisson, Commander, ar, rived in Baltimore at a into hour on Wed nesday night, for the purpose of refitting. Previously the steamer was with the squad ron off the Rappahannock river. She has on board three 82 pounders and and a rifted cannon. Military and War Items. greasing briskly. A company is ex• peoted from the uppor part of Clark county, and several others from differ ent parts of the distitet. 'The 39th 'lllinois.`: :has left for St. Louis, where they receive their arms. The Chicago Post says this is the fortieth reginaent of troops of all kinds which Illinois his sent into the field, and makes the total number from that State now in service 42,000. Th's does not include several regiments of Missouri troops, made up largely of Illi nois men. The quota for Illinois is 45,000, which will, in a few days, be full. The sandy Valley Advbcate says there are several hundred volunteers now in camp at Catlettsburg, Boyd co., Ky., in command of Colonels Vinson and Moore. Quartermaster General Vajen, of In liana, has gone to Cincinnati to con tract with Miles Greenwood for si full batteries, twenty-four guns to be suith bored brass pieces and twelve of them rifled.

We find the following items in the Indianapolis Se .tinel of yesterday: Sixteen car loads of arms arrived yes terday over the Bellefontaine railroad, destined for Kentucky. Among them were ten smooth bored brass cannon, with carriages, caissons and all equip. ments. They were forwarded by the Jeffersonville railroad. Col.

Private Eli Abernathy, of the 19th Indiana regiment, died in the hospital at Washington, on Saturday last, of fe ver. His remains were interred in the Soldier's Home Cemetery. It will be seen by the following let ter from J. B. Temple, President of the Kentuoky Military Board, that no troops will be enlisted in the State ser vice for twelve months, and all who have enlisted for that period will be either disbanded or can reenlist for "three years or the war."

He would be glad, no doubt, to have the Federal Gov• ernment submit to the loss of so important a tract of country, but can have no hope beyond such a relinquishment by the War Department at Washington. The question is, shall the Confederates be allowed to make a plaything of Missouri? General Fremont will answer this question in good time. DIED.
