PROSPECT OP A DECISIVE
BATTLE.
There is an impression among those
who have the finest opportunities of
knowing, that our and the rebel forces
on the Potomac are ou the eve of a ter
rible engagement. The point at whioh
this dreadful shock of arms is likely to
occur is Manassas Junction—the scene
of our late humiliation. Here Beaure
gard has again entrenched himself, pa
tiently,waiting the advance of the federal
forces.
Our Cabinet at Washington are said
to be divided in regard to the policy of
a forward movement upon the rebels ;
but the necessity of striking soon seems
to have the weight of authority in its
favor. Whether our forces are able to
strike this blow successfully is a question
which the attempt only can answer. 11
is said that the rebeb at Manassas are so
confident of success, that, they are eager
for an engagement and anxiously await
the advance of the federal army. Their
attempt at closing the Potomac was in
tended lo drive the government into a
premature attack upon them, and it is
likely to prove successful. The only
certain way of clearing this stream oj
batteries is said to be an advance on Ma
nassas. The rebels being aware of this
are eager for a fight from behind their
fortifications; for it appears pretty cer
tain they will not risk a battle unless
they have those advantages. To giv 0
the rebels the advantages of position
masked batteries, earthwork intrench
ments and superior knowledge of the
country is to show a confidence in our
ability to conquer, commendable to our
pluck, if not our judgment.
The portion of the Cabinet which
counsel prudence and delay are on the
safe side, because a terrible responsibili
ty rests upon those who are anxious for
the fight. General McClellan and his
immense army cannot afford to suffer
defeat; another Bull Run disaster would
be crushing to our cause. Nothing,
therefore, should be risked when the
consequences of failure would be so fatal,
but should we gain a decisive victory we
may look for the speedy termination of
rehfellibn. Once obtain a toothold in
Virginia and the rebel government will
fly before our victorious soldiers ; rebel
lion will .become terror-stricken ; the
loyal men of Virginia, now kept down
by the strong hand of tyrrany, will rally
■to the standard of their deliverers, and
soon a Union party will show itself in
the Old Dominion, as powerful in num
bers as they were before the State se
ceded. A decisive victory for our arms
in Virginia would not only give hope
and confidence to the Union men of
the South, but have an admirable effect
upon us ail. Kentucky, Missouri and
Maryland, would receive new lire, and
for the performance of gallant
exploits. Oar troops would feel new in
centives after having rubbed out the
disgrace of our former defeat, and a feel
ing of confidence in our ability to con
quer would be created, similar to that
which was felt when the rebellion broke
out.
BLAVEHY AND THE WAS
Onr talented neighbor or the Gazette
yesterday devoted a oolumn and a half to
a learned discussion of this irritating subi
jeot.
It began its leader very wisely ty
“It is hard to determine clearly the effect
slavery is to have upon our great national
conflict, or what effect that conflict is to
have upon slavery. The two are insepara
bly blended, bat subject to numberless com
plications and contingencies.”
No fair minded gentlemen can object to
in fact it is quite difficult to “detor
mineclearly” anything connected with the
struggle except that it is going on.
After the exhibition of a large amount
of learning about the early struggles of the
American colonies, Cromwell, Luther,
King David, Charles the fifth, and the
well of Bethlehem, our estimable acquaint
ance concludes as follows:
“Our readers can answer for themselves;
as for us, our hand and voice is with Lib
erty and Humanity, and for the wisest im~
ppnement of the present Great Opportu
nity, the neglect of which must call down
upon the nation the vengeance of Heaven.”
Our neighbor will place us under addi
tional obligations if it will inform us wbal
it weans by the ‘'wisest improvement ol
the present great ppportunity.”
TEIiEGBAfH TO UTAH.
The telegraph yesterday brought us
the congratulations of Brigham Young
to President Lincoln and the reply of
the latter to the Mormon Saint, upon
the-completion of telegraphic communi
cation to Salt Lake. The successor of
Joe Smith is grandiloquent in alluding
to an enta prise which “spans the con
tinent, unites. two oceans and connects
Temote extremities of the body politic
with.the'great government’s heart. May
the whole system thrill with quickened
pulsations of that heart; the parricidal
hand of treason be punished; and the
, entire sisterhood of States join hands in
giad reunion around the national fire
side."
President Lincoln reciprocates the
congratulations of Brother Young, but
does not spread himself to the same
extent.,,^

HARVEY AND SHAKSBEARB-
Two papers from the pen of Mr. dames
H. Hackett, the distinguished represen
tative of Sir John Fallsfaff, have been
furnished to the New York Evening Post ,
going to prove that Shakspeare had a
knowledge of the circulation of the blood
prior to its discovery by Dr. Harvey. To
support his position Mr. Hackett quotes
Beveral passages from Shakspeare’s plays,
among which are the following ;
Brutus, in Julius Coosar, speaking to
Portia, says ;
“Thou art dear to me as tins ruddy drops
That my sad heart.”
After quoting several other passages
equally pertinent, Mr. Hackett concludes
with one from Fallataff, in which he
Bpeaks of “good sack” having the excel
lent effect of warming the blood and
making it course from the inwards to the

Activity in Business,
We were gratified, yesterday, says the
Philadelphia Inquirer of Saturday, to hear
that one of our heaviest old houses in Mar
ket street had done a heavier business this
week than it has ever done in any week at
this season of the year, and, with but few
exceptions, larger than in any week in its
existence. An excellent foalure of this ac
tivity, too, was \ho fact that a very large
proportion of the sales vvero for cash, and
none of them on the pernicious system of
“long credits,” that has deslroyod so many
mercantile fortunes in this and other cities.
Wo make this editorial note of the rnattr-r.
because we are sure the public will bn ha
much rejoiced to hear it as we were.
A Laruk Holk.—A Kentucky letter
in a St. l/Oui. s paper has this significant
passage
“My opinion is that a large hole will bo
bored through Tennessee and Arkansas
before the Ist of December. Our southern
friends will feel like going home soon,
and our troops intend to escort them hack
to their plantations and remain with
until all disputes between Ihemare settled.”
FROM MISSOURI,
Fremont and the Contractor*
Correspondence of the N. Y. Tune*
The public mind is profoundly agitated
upon tho administration of affaii6 in this
military department. Fremont has many
zealous friends, as well as many enemies,
from grounds not at all personal. Much
of the discontent may arise from the fret
thfft little hag been done in the field as y°b
and fresh outbreaks are occurring on the
lines of railroad.
The visit of tho War Secretary and Ad
jutant General has stimulated the discus
sion of the condition of affairs. Parties
equaliy well-informed state that Mr. Cam
eron left with both favorable and unfavor,*
able impieisions. It is needles to add
that the opinions here are very conflicting.
No doubt it must have gladened the heart
to see an army of the best fighting ma
terial in the world in the field, well fed,
well ciad, and tolerably well equipped and
disciplined. All that was to be srai wa*
probably to his liking—all that whs unseen
may have been otherwise.
No expense has been spared on the
troops. Whatever money or credit could
buy, from brass and silver bands to tent
flooring, has boon bought. lee, water bar
rels, by the car load, surgical instruments
enough for the Grand Army of the Ken
peror, besides vait qualities of provisions,
clothing, horses, wagons, &c. Verily we
have had enough of tho “pride, pomp and
circumstance of war,” to have seen its vir
tues.
FLOTTEB AMONG THS CONTBACTuItS.
The announcement of Secretary Gamer,
on referring informal claims to tho proper
authorities at Washington, has raised a
decided commotion, tho results of which
will be to lead to some rich developments
in which the whole country is Inlereded.
It appears that parties in this city and float
ing capitalists have taken large and lucrative
contracts for the government upon no
other authority than the general command
ing and his subordinates. The banks have
advanced large sums of money upon these
transactions, bolding the certilied claims as
security. The secretary’s decision has up
set their calculations, and disturbed the
equilibrium of the money market.
The streets have been full of rumors of
fraudulent and swindling transactions on
the part of the contractors, Or the tenth
part of which I would not vouch, though
it would be strange if they were entire na
tion. Thus it is reported .that the exten.
sive fortifications have cost the govern
ment $490,000, when competent engineers
say $120,000 would have been amplo
Another contract for horses was sold for
$lO,OOO the same day it was obtained. A
third was for 200,000bushelsof oorn at 60c.
per bushel, yielding a net profit of 46c. a
bushel. One patriotic individual furnished
boots to the government, the soles of which
were stuffed with paper and shavings
Some lucky one who wasjiot worth a dollar
on the Ist of March, drew out of bank
$79,000 on the day that the quartermaster
left. An express company is said to have
received $5OO per gun for fifty heavy guns
shipped as ordinary freight, when therail
way companies would have been glad to
get 60c. cwt. for the same, the gunß having
laid useles on the ground ever since.—
Jobbery in provision contracts, swindling
in arms, clothing contracts, and almost
everything else.

souri.
The St. Louis Republican has this para
graph :
“A report was extensively circulated,
shortly after the surrender of LexingtoD,
that Jackson had assembled the secesh
part of the legislature in that city, and
secured the passage of a secession ordi.
nance. Thiß was erroneous—there was no
such session. But we understand he haß
sent notices to membeis supposed to be in
his interest and that of the Southern Con
federacy, requiring their attendance in a
remote corner of the State, (probably
Carthage,) where, few or many they will
go through the form of passing an ordi
nance of secession, if Gen. Fremont doos
not, in the mean time, drive the w hole jiosse
out of the Stale.”
An Absurd Duel
M. Mary-Lafon was bathing in tbe
Marne one day, a Mr. M. G. near him.
The latter suddenly disappeared. M.
Lafon dived after him and brought him
up again, .Restored to his senses, the
delivered overwhelmed his deliverer
with expressions of gratitude. M. La
fon, to get rid of such excessive dem
onstrations, proposed an adjournment
to a house of refreshment. But this
only made matters worse. M. G. call
ed him his father and his saviour, and
persisted in publicly embracing him.
M. Lafon, annoyed beyond bearing,
threw a plate of strawberries at M.
G., who retorted with a water decanter.
A meeting was the consequence. After
a first harmless discharge of pistols, M.
Lafon inquired if the other would per.
sist in his filial demonstrativeness.

WOmWSM*-. MATIFERS*-,. „ -.
Tile Mexican Troubles.
The Arabia’s mails bring fuller ac
couuts of the preparations for the allied
expedition against Mexico. The Lon
don Post of the 14th instant makes
this semi-official announcement:
“It is understood that by.the middle
of November the climate of Vera Cruz
and Tampico will be well suited to the
forthcoming intervention of the allied
forces in the Gulf of Mexico. From
that time the healthy season begins, and
it commonly continues during some six
months—a period far more than suffi
cient for putting into gear our plans for
the liquidation of our claims against the
republic of Mexioo. Although it would
be impossible to fix the precise moment
for the ocmmeneement of the operations
in the Gulf, there is little doubt that in
the first week of the healthy season we
shall be in a position to carry into ef
fect, jointly with the forces of France
and Spain, the intervention which we
announced more than a week ago.
“We have every reason to anticipate
that, long before the unhealthy season
returns in Mexioo, the great proportion
of our sailors and marines may be in a
position to quit possession of Vera Cruz,
Tampico and such other portß as they
may seize along the Gulf. It is not too
much, indeed, to hop" that a very brief
career of active hostilities in the prin
■ cipal cities of the coast, will result in
bringing the Mexican government to
our terms ; and it is obvious that when
the process which we arc prepared to
onrry into effect among the principal
Gulf cities shall have been formally
agreed to by the best executive author
• ity that exists in Mexioo, it will hr cora
; petent to us to relinquish our forcible
possession of the ports that we may
, have held meanwhile as material guarnn
, ties. Two or t hree vessels of war in the
i roadsto sof each, of the ports that are
■ to be placed under a system of revenue
sequestration, will then be in all prob
• ability thcutmosi that will be required.”
The London Times savs :
“The Spanish naval force which is to
assemble at Havana for the expedition
' to Mexico is composed of twelve steam
ers, viz : ITinc<G de Asturias, 51 guns;
Concepcion,-11 guns; Lcaltad, 11 guns ;
' lilanca 87 guns ; BereDguela, liT guns;
' I'etronilla, AT guns ; Lsabel la Catolica,
Hi guns ; Francisco de Asia, lti guns ;
i Heman Cortes, ti gnns ; Blasco de Ga»
■ rey, tiguns; I’izarro, ti guns ; Velasco,
ti guns; total, 400 guns. There will
be besides two corvettes and the neces
sary number of transports.”
' 1 The pacification of Mexi
co can be better effected by the inter
vention of the great Powers than by the
reoonques! of the conntry by a second
rate state. What is wantod is that
peace and order should be enforced for
a few years, and that the improvement
of the people should be left to those
| causes which have regenerated more
than one Furopean nation.”
The J'aris I’resse throws doubt on an
1 assertion made by the (’orrespondencia,
that no understanding has been come
to bitw; "n Franco and Kngland a.- to a
i joint intervention in Mexico. “Con
trary t-vi what the (’orrespondencia an
nounces,” say,- the Paris journal, “the
negotiations have not been broken off
between Kngland, France and Spain,
reelutive to Mexico ; but up to the pres
ent time no decision has been come to.”
Tho Way to Help Humanity and
Lancashire
The Loudon Star und Dial of the
.‘ld instant accompanies an appeal for
tho development of the Indian, Egyp
tian and Australian cotton lands with
the following excellent remarks :
“A great opportunity is bcfure us.
We may pluck permanent safety out of
the midst of an imminent danger. We
may confer immense benefit on mill
lions of our lellow subjects, and on
millions more of our fellow creatures
We may s.lve the mast urgent of
English questions by u method which
will solve also the worst of American
difficulties. Tho present and future of
two great nations are bound up to
gether in ono problem. A plentiful
supply of cotton is to England the in
dispensable condition of existence. A
diminished demand for the principal
produce of southern states is tho most
hopeful chance of negro emancipation.
There are wide and fruitful ootton
fields within our own territories. There
is an absolute impossibility of obtain
ing present supplies from America.
That impossibility may be indefinitely
protracted. The politicians of tho
Union arc yet too strong for the sol
diers and citizens who would make
the war short and decisive. It may be
prolonged—it may be renewed. There
oan be no more reliance upon the com
meroial operations of a country divided
against itself.
I “The blockade of southern ports is
now so effective that not a bale of cot
ton esoapes thence to our shores; though
the price is double or treble the av
erage. Not even the prospect of eet
ting twenty cents per pound at Liver
pool for what can be bought at six
cents in Charleston tempts the mer
chants to speculate on evading the
Union cruisers. There is not a pound
of cotton on the At antic, except und
er the flag that conveys it as the spoil
of war to Now York. Our stooks are
getting low—our markets are feverish,
our mills are beginning to work short
time. Are we to persist in looking to
the disturbed and war-stricken West
for supplies which it cannot yield with
out a miracle of pacification 1 Or shall
we not apply ourselves with vigorous
promptitude to the sources that lie
within our own tranquil empire, and
within the reach of very moderate ex
ertions ?
* *
* “America oan, at any
rate, not increase her supply, unless—
which God and man may be trusted to
avert! —she also increases her Blave
grounds. It is India and the British
colonies that must supply the wants of
of the future—the wants unsatisfied
by the 4,000,000 bales hitherto sup
plied by the United States. The 2,* '
000,000 bales yielded by other coun
tries must be doubled or trebled before
we begin to see the natural level of,
supply and demand. We may hope to
see by that time the American negro
as free as the British operative, and
the Indian ryot or coolie as well con
tent as either. Good luok to all who
aspire to help on so happy a result/’ I
SOUTHERN CONFEDERACY NOT
REMOTE.
From.tho Lomion Post ( emioflicial)
Up to the present time the Confeder
ates have succeeded in o7ery field—at
Bull Run, Springfield, and Lexington.
How is the question of secession to be
decided ? According to tho modern
theory of European nations, as exhibit
ed in the cases of the revolted Amer
ican colonies, of Spain, Greece, and
Belgium, de facto iudepenbence must
be recognized. The time perhaps, has
not arrived when this question oan be
put to any ioreign State, but the fact
of virtual independence nevertheless
exists, and the period of decision can
not be long postponed. Bnt why are
tho American people to continue an un
necessary and fratricidal war, which
all experience, up to the present time,
shows is unlikely to be accompanied by
any lasting triumphs ? On the plain
est grounds of |humanity, compromise
wouldjbe infinitely preferable to a con«
tinuance of hostilities. The North now
hopes, by its successful' naval expedi
tions, to seize the cotton crops of the
South, and to provide for the neces
sities of European manufacture. But
we are at a loss to kDow by what pro
cess the free-traders of the South can
be reconciled to the prohibitory and ex
clusive tariffs of the North. Wo la
ment the unhappy differences which
now appear almost appear irreconcila
ble ; we admit the impossibility of ex
pecting the South to eeutribute to the
the expenses of a war waged for its
conquest and subjugation ; but we stili
have a gleam of hope, when, consider
ing the protracted and rnhtual hesita
tion and delay of the belligerents, we
seo in the not distant horizon the ac
knowledgement of that principle of
seporation and of individual State Sov
ereignity which is now equally valid
and true at it was when the United
States first achieved their independ
ence. Foreign nations have only to
keep aloof'from the contest. Premature
recognition would be both unjust and in
expedient ; but the course of events ap
pears to be forcing some action in this
direction upon foreign Governments
Wise and timely compromise, accompa
nied by the amicable renewal of politic
al and commercial relations, ought to
be the policy of the Federal Govern
ment ; but whether this lesson has been
taught is a problem which must bo left
to future history ; at present, it is a spec
ulation not sufficiently illustrated by the.
small skirmishes which for some time
past have marked the progress of the
Amerionn civil war.
Judgo Eanney on tho Knights of
tho Golden Circlo
Judge Ranney made a powerful speech
for the prosecution in the case of the
Knights of the Golden Circle; His clo
sing words arc reported by tho Herald
as follows :
In closing, Judge Ranney poured
out the vials of his indignation on those
who imagine tho democratic party re
quires to fie defended by secret societies.
That party, to which he was proud to
belong, is defended by the whole Li-tory
of our country, and by the recollections
of every battle fielJ. If any had erred
by takiug the fir.-t obligation, he would
say the democratic party needs not to bo
protected in any such manner. Citaud
on the house tops, said he, proclaim to
the world that men are to he protected
in their constitutional rights, but don’t
hide it beneath senseless oaths and obli
gations. Cease the tom-fooling of cock
ing up hats, hinting mysteriously of the
“Star of Bethlehem,” and talking about
beiogquartered and thrown out of the
four gates of gateless cities. Such things
create suspicion. Ho knew there are
menjWho havelooked with pleasure on
thejmarchof the rebels'toward Washing
ton. Blinded by partizauship they have
forgotten that Abraham Lincoln is no
thingandjnobody,except as he represents
the government and the people. Lot
those who have so far forgotten their
obligations to the government as to
conspire against it, be punished as they
deserve, and let those who are not
guilty bo exonerated from suspicion.

Suppose a private to have served one

his account with tho government reduced

And supposing his average travel from

A r.iTTLK more that thirty years ago a
