FRIDAY MORNING, SEPT. 5 CITY War Meeting. The intelligence from East and West yesterday created a very general uneasi ness in the city, and some of our most sedate citizens began to fear that the ene my might penetrate to Pennsylvania, and to talk of precautionary -measures. Not knowing what might be necessary in the emergency, a meeting of the old Commit tee of Public Safety was called. But a few, however, were in attendance, and the only business transacted was the appoint ment of a committee, with Ex-Governor Wm. F. Johnston as chairman, 13 report business to an adjourned meeting, to be, held at the Board of Trade Rooms, at 9 o'clock this morning. The Mayor also became impressed with the necessity of. prompt action, and issued the following: "Awing to the threatening aspect of af fairs, and not knowing what moment our own city may be attacked by rebel traitors, 1, therefore. request the citizens to as . semble, en nutsse, at the Court House, on Fridayi-the sth inst., at 11 o'clock A. to tale such measures as will ensure the safety- of the people. "B. C. SAWYER, Mayor." The proclamation of Governor Curtin, I recommending the organization of volun- 1 teer companies, increased the excitement 1 in the afternoon, but few felt any real ap- 1 prehension.- Precautionary measures do, kpwever ' seem imperatively necessary,' And. we hope to see a full attendance of ' .citizena at the meeting this morning, to take some wise, united and decisive action. The Quota of Allegheny County. Hon. J. P. Sterrett and David Reed, returned from Harrisburg yesterday. The latter gentleman brought with him the official list of quotas of several Wes tern counties, as fixed by Hon. A. K. McClure, Superintendent of the - draft in this state. Allegheny county's appor tionmsnt, under all the calls since the three mouths' men, is 10,593; Beaver, L 725; Butler, 1,986; Armstrong, 2,174; Fayette, 2,263; Greene, 1,436; Lawrence, 1,366; Mercer, 2,15; Washington. 2,783; Westmoreland, 3,176. It will gratify many of our readers to know that the establishment of the quota of Allegheny county renders it pretty cer tain that no daft will be required here. :Returns from fifteen townships and seven borofighs at the Marshal's office show 2,199 enlistments, which would give, -if the same Average were carried out for the forty townships and fifteen boroughs, 0,452, exclusive of the cities. Three wards of Pittsburgh give 1,141 or 3,423 for the whole city. and if Allegheny's pro portion holds out the same we have 1,521. The sum total of all would therefore be 10,396—leaving, under the necessarily incomplete enrollment of the officials, but two hundred to provide. To make these up we have a cavalry regiment organizing here, and the ball has been set in motion for a Corcoran regiment, both by special authority. The number re cruited for old regiments and for these two regiments, since the enrollment, will more than make up for all errors and deficien cies, and leave us with an excess to our credit on the books of the State. We can - afely say now that we are "out of the woods," and that no draft will be neces sary. Those who left the city under an apprehension that they might be called on to do unwilling service can now return without fear to their usual avocations, Preservation of Fruit. Theta nothing more desirable or ac .ceptahle i the winter season than well kept fruit, a :411 as peaches, pears, plums, ..te. Numerous inventions for preserving these luxuries have been tried, and many ;have been successful; but we have seen bone more simple and effectual than a glass fruit jar, patented by J. C. Baker, August 14th, ISGO. It has been tried for Lwo seasons by many families, and found to keep any fruit as fresh and perfect as when first put up. We yesterday saw a quart of peaches in one of these jars, put up two years. since—still perfectly air tight, the peaches firm and sweet, and the surrounding si rup as clear as when first poured over. The jar is of glass, with Mats on each side the neck, over which is fitted a pressed tin cover, with a gum pa te inside, the whole held down by an iron h o w catching on the slats. These capital Mrs are manufactured by Messrs. Phillips & Best, and can be had at their works, Sec ond street. We commend them to house keepers for efficiency and economy. Secesli Buttons. We were yesterday shown some buttons, taken from the coats of rebel prisoners a short time ago. One, from. a Louisiana tiger, had the device of a pelican, &c.: Another, Company I, with Mississippi sp t .l.led out in full. They were of superior f in i s h, and were manufactured by Hyde & Goodrich, New Orleans. This firm were engaged in making sugar mills and plantation implements—before the rebel lion broke out ; since then they have turn ed their attention entirely to the button and bayonet trade. They are both from the North—Mr. Hyde formerly resided in St. Louis, and Mr. Goodrich is from Mas .sachusetts. Waahington County Fair. The Union Agricultural Association will hold their Soventleannual fair at Bur gettstown, Washington county, on Wed nesday and Thursday, October Ist and 2d. The officers are all practical, reliable men, The premium list is varied and extensive, and as all the fairs of this Association are leogely attended, those interested in agri culteral pursuits here, would find both profit and pleasure in being present.. We acknowledge the receipt of a complimen tary ticket from the Secretary. Passed Through. Lieut. E. J. R.

The fo:- lowing delegates were present: Allegheny County—CM. Gibson, J. T F. Wright. Win. H. McGee, Wm. Neelp, Chas. McGinn. Armstrong—William D. Robison, A. Anderson, John Milliron, J. A. M'Cullough, .J. G. Bearer. Butler— James Dunlop, S. P. Irwin, A. S. Mc- Bride, It. M. M'Lure, J. B. McQuiston. The following gentlemen were nomina ted for Congress, viz: Captain Jacob Zeigler, of Butler county, and John It. Large, of Allegheny county—resulting, on the first ballot, in the choice of Jacob Zeigler. ___ Messrs. Wright, McCullough, and Dun lop were appointed a committee to inform Capt. Zeigler of his nomination ; where. upon Mr. Zeigler appeared and made a few appropriate remarks. A recommeudution was made that fu ture conventions for nominatingCongrt,;s men be composed of three members from each county. A resolutiox was passed that the Dena• ocratsc editors of the district be requested to publish the proceedings of this Couven• tion. The Corcoran Regiment. The committee from this city who wen to Harrisburg to endeavor to secure the acceptance of a Corcoran regiment, to be raised here. have had an interview with Gov. Curtin, who, much interested, prom ised all possible aid in the organization of the regiment. lie also immediately tele graphed to Gen. C. P. Buckingham, de siring him to send to hint immediately the necessary authority to raise the regiment within twenty days. The proper pup,,rs will doubtless be sent forward at once and those interested in the organization of the regiment can go to work at once. the Circus. Thayer, Noyes & Co.'s excellent circus was again crowded last night, and all were highly pleased. The whole performance is good. Mr. Robinson's bare-back riding is wonderful, as is also the double-trapeze performance. The posturing and back bending elicited great applause, and the educated mules roars of laughter. The clowns were funny, and their jokes and songs good. We have not seen so fine a circus, of the old-fashioned sort, for many years, and advise all to see it this after noon or evening. The Buektails. The new regiment recruited for the. Bucktail Brigade by Major Roy Stone i s now acting as Provost Guard in Washing- ton City. There is one codipany from this city in the regiment, commanded by the following officers: Captain, James Glenn: First Lieutenant, Jacob. Slagle ; Second Lieutenant, Wm. M. Dagleish. Theatre. The new Drama of the "Angel of Mid night," a beautiful piece from the Ger man, was well. received last night by a good audience. It will be repeated to night, with the pantomime of the "Two Coopers," and the rope walking perform ance of Mr. Donaldson. Go and see it. Disappointed. The great crowd which assembled at the corner of Fifth and Wood streets, yesterday afternoon, to see the rope walk er, were not gratified. He will make an ascension this afternoon, between four and five o'clock. Ninth Ward Enrollment. The unofficial announcement of the en rollment in the Ninth ward is as follows : Number subject to duty, 1,027 ; volunteers in service, 233. The 155th Regiment. Col.

A special to the Missouri Democrat con tains the following ; The Grenada Appeal, of Sept. 2d, says the forts below New Orleans have surrendered to a fleet of con• federate gunboats; - that Baton Rouge has been evacuated by the federals, and the farces taken to New Orleans to defend that place. When our forces left Baton Rouge they took the machinery out of the penitentigry, and after setting loose all the convictsi received them into . the army.

They then landed two boat load sof troops and set fire to the town ; all the houses on the levee were burned except two; after firing the front of the town they went around, pilfering all the houses that were not burned; while doing this, • some of the plebiane pounced upon them, but with what effect is not known.

The Way General McClellan Wax Planed in Command of the Army of 11 - imitator—The Rumors of a Change in the Cabinet. WASHINGTON, Sept. 3-1 A. M. Since four o'clock to-day, and up to the ,ime of meeting, the city has been filled with stories of dissensions and changes in the Cabinet. One rumor has it that Mr. Secretary Stanton has resigned, and his place has been assigned to General Hal leek; while General MeClell,n is to be , the Commander-in-Chief of all the armies of the Union. But a careful inquiry re veals nothing of the sort as yet consum mated, and the present status of affairs seems to be this: On Monday afternoon President Lin coln and General McClellan, in company, called upon General Halleck at his head quarters, and a long interview ensued, lasting until after dark, and resulted in an arrangement upon which was based "general order," as follows : GENERAL ORDER—NO. 122. WAR DEPARTMENT Adjutant General's Office,t Washington, Sept. 2. I Major-General McClellan will have eon] mand - of the fortifications of Washington and of all the troops for the defense of the capital. By command of MajoA.G. r Gen. flet.t.st•K. E. D. Tow/memo, A. As the armies under Generals Pope and Burnside are now called to the defense of the capital, this order gives Gen. McClel lan supreme command of all our armies now in the vicinity of Washington, and, in fact, in Virginia. A part of the Cabi net—viz : Messrs. Stanton, Welles, Smith, Bates and Chase—ate represented to have objected to this arrangement, while Mr. Blair sustained the President and General flalleck. Mr. Seward was absent from the city; but from his universal former support of General McClellan, it was known that ho would, if here, still sus tain the action of the President. Conse quently a Cabinet meeting was called at noon, at which every member except Mr. Seward was present. What was done of course is not known, but it is certain that when the meeting adjourned, at -I o'clock e. v. , the Cabinet were a unit in favor of the President's action. A rumor, which may or may not be true, is afloat as to the way in which this most important Cabinet meeting came to be held. I give the story for what it is worth, neither crediting or discrediting it, but simply asserting that it came to me from a. source which I have been in the habit of crediting. The story is as follows : (in Tuesday, after the interview between the President and Generals Halleck and McClellan, the Secretary of War address. ed a note to the President remonstrating against the arrangement arrived at, and intimating that if the facts were as stated, he (the Secretary) would feel compelled to resign. To this letter the President 'eplied, stating that the exigencies of the Ines required the arrangement, suggest .... 11l the N Mr. Chaplir CeCe.a. ....Mr. Donalthion torniino or the Merry Gilbert bonaldson listrueut ing that "if the Secretary — felt cliSpo;ed to resign he would feel constrained to accept the resignation. This note called for the resignation of the Secretary or the en dorsement of the order, and the Cabinet ' meeting was called for the purpose of tilling the vacancy if it occurred. There is only one fact which shakes my faith iu the truth of the latter version of the affair, and that is the one that Mr. Stanton was present at the meeting of the Cabinet. 1 he Cabinet meeting of to.day was long continued, and the guess is no doubt true that it had reference to our present condi tion. The Government, it is apparent to every one, is exerting every energy fur the city's defense. It may be safely re ported there is no panic here; but of course there is naturally a generally expressed solicitude regarding the future. The Enthusiasm for McClellan BA F.TI OR 13, Sept. 3. —Tho American, of this city, publishes the following special dispatch in its evening edition : Wesittsi:Tox, Sept. :b . —The effect on the army on hearing of the appointment of Gon. McClellan to command them is represented as wildly enthusiastic. They are now ready to turn back and meet the enemy at once. The feeling extends throughout the whole army of Virginia, and even the sick and wounded join in the general re- joicings. There is no panic here. All now is confidence and security. Movements or Gen. McClellan. WAsnizroros, Sept. 3; 1862. Immediately after accepting the chief command of all the Union forces in Vir ginia and the neighborhood of Washing ton, Gen. McClellan proceeded to inspect the troops and fortifications ou the other aide of the river: This duty occupied him until after midnight last night. His reception by the officers and sol diers was marked by the most unbounded enthusiasm. In every camp his arrival was greeted by hearty and prolonged cheering, and manifestations of wildest delight. Many of the soldiers who fought under him in the hardest battles of the war, wept with joy at having again for their commander one upon whom they could place implicit reliance. Already his hurried visit to the camps has brought a remarkable change in the soldiers. His presence seemed to act magically upon them; despondency is re placed by confidence, and all are glad that McClellan will hereafter direct them. The General has been busy in perfect ing the organization of the army, and' pre paring it for the duties to be assigned. He has easily resumed his old habits, -and spends most of the time day and night among the camps and forts. The abolitionists try to comfort them selves with the belief that Gen.
