Mr. Editor— l know a man in this
oityj tartfie Service of the United Stains
In Western Virginia, who came home on
a furlough and when the time came for
hi* return, had not the means to pay his
passage hack? What would be the best
conrse .for him to pursue!
Hake'immediate application to the
neareat Quartet master, (in thia.caae, Col.
kin,) who is bound to furnish him trans
portation to his regiment and subsistence
otftheway.
Ekoovbelhg.— Adjutant Frailey, of tho
Lancaster regiment and Dan’l Landis, who
were so;seriously injured by the accident
cn the Sir Wm. Wallace on Friday, are
rapidly recovering. The former was able
to walk about yesterday.
fig?-The treaty with the King of Lagos
for the cession of the isle and port of Lagos
toGreat Britain, is officially announced,—
This port of Lagos is one of the most val
uable upon the African coast, its business
amounting to upwards of ten millions of
dollars annually. It is a rich acquisition
to the British government.
HOW THEY BEGABD IT
The following extract from the Louis
ville Democrat, a Douglas paper, which
has manfully grappled with secession
from -the beginning, will give our readers
an idea of the effect produced by the
Abolition, emanoipation organs of the
North;
"We think it high time the New York
Tribune was prohibited all circulation in
the mails. It is a Disunion sheet and con
tributes.more to keep up the rebellion than
half a dozen armies. The editor insists
that’Slav.ery must die if this war continues.
Now everybody knows that slavery oan’t
be Suppressed until all regard for the Fed
eral. Constitution perishes ;;, and the doc.
trine is, that if the war continues, the
Constitution and all its guaranties must be
prostrated. Then what are .the people of
the Nokth fighting-for t If s.avery can be
abolished by this war, any other right of
the States reserved oan be alike sacrificed,
and we have no law bnt tho arbitrary will,
of a military despot to depend on. It iB
strange that a letter from Louisville to the
New York Times, written by some Abo
litionist, has started the editor of the ?Yt
brnte afresh. This writer ought to be sent
to Fort Lsfavette. Such outgivings would
dißband the Union armies if it was believed
lor a moment that the Administration did
not spurn such suggestions.
From tha South.
The New Orleans and Memphis papers
up to the 2nd instant furnish the following
intelligence:
The Mobile Register has a letter from
Fensaeola, under dato of 25ht ult, which
says:
“Wo have reports of several expeditions
to the (South. Let them -come. Their
tombs are open.”
The’Memphis Appeal says:
"The rumors relating to an attempted
raid, by a Lincoln horde of 25,000 vandals,
upbh our-Southern coast, are not without
plausible probability. That the expedition
will meet with a warm reception is most
certain. Gov. Brown and Gen. Lanton
have had their eyes on tho strategetic
points of the coast for some time, and
what they have done in reference to
guah proposed visits will be known when
the arrival takos place. We have no doubt
the reports from that quarter will be only
»Udh reports as can be caused by the right
cart of guns in the right plaoe, served by
the right Bort of artillerists. It will be no
Uatteras affair."
The New Orleans Della states that Capt,
Dan Rickok had made a requisition on the
proper authorities for Bix rifled cannons,
to be placed at the pickets stationed at the
approaches of the New Canal.
The editor adds:
“The Captain is suspicious of gun-boats,
and wants to give them a hot reception if
they come poking about there.”
The Bame paper has a full and accurate
description of the new gun-boat fleet, built
and building at the Government Navy
Yards and private ship yards North. The
names, tonnage, number and calibre of
guns, etc., are given in detail.
Confirmatory of the verbal reports, wo
find in the New Orleans Crescent an order
from the Governor of the State in regard
io the organisation of the State militia,
“in order” (we quote the Crescent) “to
prepare f>t any emergency that may come
upon us.” It is not doubted, by the same
authority, that “there is force enough in
the State to repel any invasion, come from
whatever quarter it may.” The Governor’s
order di roots that captains Bhall drill their
companies each day, and empowers them to
force the attendance of their men, by piker
ing ail who refuse to do duty upon the Hat
of persons who are suspected of being un
sound in their allegiance to the Confeder
acy. The Crescent—
“ Hopes that all persons will at once re
spend to this order from the Governor, so
that there will be no necessity for a Black
lilst of recreants and renegades. If we ex
pect to save onr city from capture and pil
lage, our wives, daughters and sisters from
the fate of the unfortunate women of Ma
ryland, we mast all shoulder our guns and
prepare for a terrible struggle. We can
beat off any invading force, if true to our
selvos, and that wo will do it is as sore as
anything in the future can be.”

LATEST BY TELEGRAPH.
Washington «?liy Items,
Washington, Odlojwi? 19-—A recon
noissance wont out yeateidsy towards the
Occcquan and has returned, taking the
telegraph road as far as Acatonk creek.—
Parties were 6ent to the Acatonfc and Po
hick, and on a road loading up Acatonk.—
This latter party met the rebel pickets, who
immediately fell back and gave the alarm,
and the long roll was beaten at their camp
across the creek. From the information
derived from this reconnoissance there are
no rebels between the telegraph road and
the this Bide of Oedcquan, and but
few at the latter place. j
The only advices received from Sandy
Hook is a brief dispatch from the operator,
saying that the rebels are about burning
Bolivar, near Harper’s Ferry.
Three tug boats—the Posey, Robert Ges
ley and another —went down the river iaet
night to give assistance to any vessels com*
ing up, but in consequence of the light
moonlight and afterwarda the thick log,
they were ordered not to attempt to pass
the batteries, either up or down last night.
Firing was heard from the batteries about
midnight, but the cause is unknown.
There are indications that the rebels are
erecting permanent batteries at Cockpit
Point and Freestone Point, as considerable
bodies were soon at work at those points
yesterday.
Twenty-six vessels are known to have
run the batteries night before last. It is
believed that vessels drawing not more
than eight feet of water can hug the Mary*
land shore sufficient to escape harm from
the batteries.
The only steamers now at the Navy Yard
are the Dawes, Hetzol, Anacosta and Couer
de Lion.
General Slovens having been ordered to
a more important field of duty, he will be
followed by the Highland regiment,which
he but recently commanded as Colonel.
A New York and two Pennsylvania
regiments are alternately on picket duty at
Vienna, where the Highlanders have been
similarly employed.
Persons attached to the Bteam-tug Reso
lute report that about 11 o’clock this
morning, while off Ociquan Creek, near
Budd’s Point, tho cable by which the Res
olute was towing tbo Schooner Fairfnx
from Philadelphia, broke, whon the latter
drifted towards tho shore and the rebels
started out in boats and captured her. The
Resolute was, it is added, tired at from the
battery in that vicinity, but being unable
to render assistance, mado her way to
Washington where she arrived Uusevon*.

It is reportod that tho rebels had stretch

Reserve Corps, together with cavalry and
artillery left Prospect Hill early this

Washington Crrr, October 20.--On
the opening of tho telegraph to Great Salt
Lake City, the following dispatches were
exchanged: Great Salt Lake City—Tothe
President of the United States:—Utah,
whose citizens strenuously resist all impu
tations of disloyalty, congratulates the
President upon the completion of an en
terprise which spans the continent, unites
two oceans and connects remote extremi
ties of the body politic with the great
governments heart. May the whole sys
tem thrill with quickened pulsations pf
that heart, the parricidal hand of treason
be punished and the entire sisterhood of
States join hands in glad reunion around
the national fireside.
[Signed] Frank Fuller,
Acting Governor of Utah.
The following is the reply:—Sir:—The
completion of the telegraph to Salt Lake
City is auspicious ot the stability and
union of the Republic. Tho government
reciprocates your congratulations,
Abaham Lincoln. .
Those who are affected with weak nerves
will probably be relieved by the fact
which was ascertained at the State depart
ment yestorday, that the advices by the
mail of the Arabia are more than usually
satisfactory, but there is great activity in
schemes for the violation of the blockade
and introducing contraband goods.
Lord Lyons has addressed a brief eircu
lar'to Her Majeßty’s.Consuls in the South
ern States enclosing the following as em
bodied in the official note of the Secretary
of State, namely: the law of blockade
which does not permit a vessel in a block
aded port to take on board a cargo after the
commencement of the blockade, will be ex
pected to be strictly observed by all vessels
blockaded by the Naval forces of the
United States. Lord Lyons instructs
those consuls to take this law for their
guidance.
The report from the steamtug Resolute,
mentioned in a previous despatch, that the
rebels have stretched a chain across the
Potomac near Budda Point proves untrue
as has been ascertained by caroful inquiry
in responsible quarters since last Tuesday,
when the rebel battories first regularly
opened. About fifty vessels have reached
Washington and Georgetown.. The
schooner loaded with hay, cement and
furniture which yesterday fell into tho
hands of the rebels is the first casualty of
that kiDd.
It is alono owing to tho breaking of the
hawser, by which it was fastened to the
Resolute and drifting toward the Virginia
shore. Tho other vossel in tow arrived
horo safely with the Resolute, notwith
standing the attaok from the battery upon
them. The tug Murray camo up during
last night with the echooners in tow. They
escaped unhurt, though fired upon. The
Murray returned the compliment.
This morning a heavy detachment from
General Smith's division, with a portion
of Molts’ and Ayre's batteries, and com
panies from the Fifth regiment of regular
Cavalry and Colonel Freidman’s Philadel
phia Cavalry advanced towards Fairfax
Court House on a reconnoissanee.
They went as far as Flint Hill, which
is two and a half miles this side of that
village, nnd overlooks it. They saw there
the enomy’s pickets in such a largo force
as to impress them with the belief that the
reserve rebel army was not far from that
point. Tho expedition was accompanied
by Generals McClellan, Porter, Smith
and Hancock. It probably returned
about nightfall.
Gen. Fremont Is not Superced

St. Louis, October 19. —The statement
iD tho Cincinnati Gazette yesterday to the
effect that Secretary Cameron on his re
cent visit to this department brought an
order from the President instructing Fre
mont to transfer his command of Western
Department to General Hunter, and that
the oxecution of the order was delayed by
Genoral Fremont, is pronounced untrue.
If Cameron had such an order, it was not
presented. The interview betwoen Fre
mont and Cameron was a satisfactory one
to both parti.s.
