Arrival of Gov.' /torten.
Gov. Morton, of - Indiana, • arrived in
the city yesterday afternoon by the West
ern train, and was met at the Allegheny
depot by the following committee of citi
zens and escorted to the Monongahela
House, viz : Hon. Thomas M. Howe,
Hon. Wm. Wilkins, Hon. J. K. Moor
head, Hon. Robert McKnight, Thomas
Bakewell, Joshua Hanna, Jaiiies Park, jr ,
C. A. Dravo, John Harpd; James M.
Cooper, B. F. Jones, C. W. Batchelor,
Wm. K. Nimick and C. H. Paulson.
On arriving at the Monongahela House,
Mr. Howe addressed him as
Governor Morton — Theeople of Pitts
burgh having heard that you would arrive
in our city to-day, on yobr way to Wash
ington, and might, perhaps, 'make it con
venient to pass the night here, have de
puted a committee. of citizens to wait upbn
you and tender you theirhospitalities.
We are moved to do this, sir, by the
high appreciation we entertain for the dis
tinguished services you have rendered to
the whole country by your patriotic efforts
to maintain the union of the States in their
puritan integrity, and the time-hallowed
and time-honored institutions of govern.
went so inseparably connected therewith.
Representing no particular political or
ganization, we come in the name and be
half of loyal men of all parties to welcome
you as the honored representative of one
of the most distinguished of all the States,
in its steadfast devotion to the Union, and
amongst the earliest and most earnest in
its resistance to the foul conspiracy which
menaces its destruction. -
We are charged especially with the duty
of requesting yon to address the people of
Pittsburgh and vicinity, this evening, on
the state of the country.
The Governor said in reply that he wss
gratified with the cordial reception which
had been extended to him by the citizens
of Allegheny connty, and the complimen
tary allusions to himself and his State, by
the Chairman of the Committee.
It would give tum pleasure to accord to
the 'request of the Committee, fo address
their fellow-citizens this evening, when be
would make his acknowledgments more at
length
Burglars Arrested in Allegheny
--They Attempt to Shoot an 01.
freer.
Yesterday morning, about three o'clock,
D Sul. Busser and Jno. Baptist Fresh were
observed by officer McKelvy, of the Alle
gheny police, prowling suspicidusly around i
a tailor shoo at the corner of East Com
mon and Ohio streets. Obtaining the as
sistance of officer Herman, of the day po
lice, he returned, found them at work on
the door, `and arrested them, not before
Busser had drawn a revolver and attempt
ed to shoot Mr. McKelvey, and Fresh had
tried to stab Herman. Mclieliy knocked
his man down with a mace,
and both were
secured. A full supply of burglars' tools,
brace, bias, skeleton keys, Scc., were found
on them. Busser is said'to have served a
term in the Penitentiary. " Both were held
for trial by Mayor Alexander.
Governor Morton.
Governor Morton, of Indiana, arrived
"yesterday afternoon from the West, and
remained here for the early train East this
mornipg. He was received at the depot
by many citizens, and his room at the Mo
nongahela House was constantly thronged.
In the evening he addressed a large meet
ing at Concert Hall, presided over by Hon.
Wm. Wilkins. His subject was the war,
and during the three quartets of an hour
he occupied the stand he was attentively
listened to and frequently cheered.
Third Ward Enrollment.
A number _of the sub committees ap
pointed to recanvass the Third Ward me
at the school house last evening, when ;
from the reports submitted it was eviden
that the ward had furnished about 700 vol
unteers. The United States officer's re
turn showed 314 enlistments in Pennsyl
vania regiments. It is doubtful whether
the ward can be credited with the addi
tional number discovered; but, if properly
authenicated, they will doubtless be de
ducted from the county's quota.
Go To• Night.
Those who like to get the worth,pf their
money should go to the Th atrethrs even

cing the capital dram 7 a., f "G io" in. which,
and also in the "Vagrant," Mr. Jos. Proc •

Burt, and the roaring farce of the'"Eton
Boy" at the close. Miss Alice Placide,
an actress of celebrity, makes her first ap.
pearance fin Monday evening.
Dratlted Soldiers.
A tl,ispatch has, we understand, been re !
ceived by an official here from Adjutant
General Thomas, instructing him to MUEI.
ter in nine months' volunteers presented
by the Governor as substitutes for drafted
men, under the same regulatiAns as militia
drafted under General Ordef No. 99.
Not True.
Rumors were rife ,yeste'day that Col.
Clarke's 123 d regiment and Col. Baynes'
126th regiment, were to pass through this
city enroute for Western Virginiavpaterday
and crowds were awaiting their arrival at
the , depot. We could- obtain no- con
firmation of the rumor and believe it to
have been without the slightest founda
tion in fact. In the latest intelligence
from both these regiments nothing what
ever was said of a probable change of po
sition.
Body Found.
Last week, the body of a soldier was
found in the Ohio river, near Sisterville,
greatly mutilated and decayed. In one of
.his pockets there was a rule with the words,
"Richmond Prison, Sept. 16, 1861," writ:
ten upon it. The friends of this soldier
gill never know his fate, as it would be
m possible now to identify his form or
eatures.
Gen. Milroy.
Gen. Milroy Vas serenaded at the MC-
Clure House, Wheeling, on Wednesday
night, soon after the arrival of his brigade.
Being called out he made a speech highly
complimentary to. his brigade, also ex
pressing himselfin favor of the President's
proclamation.

the Treadurir has given a second opinion
concerning the removal of goods from their

removed from the premises where manu
factured are exempt from taxation. By
the word "premises" is meant not only the
buildinewhere the manufacture is car
ried on, but also the storehouses connect

will be printed and distributed immed

According to an act of Congress of July
last, the Western gunboat fleet has just
been transferred from the War to the
Navy Department. All the vessels now
underconstruction or repair by authority
of the War Department, are to be cont.
pie ted and Paid for under the authority of
that Department from appropriations
made for the purpose.
The War Department is informed that
certain general officers of the volunteer
service, are being relieved from their com
mands, or transferred from one command
to !another, have occasionally carried off
with them the soldiers employed as clerks
or orderlies at their former headquarters.
A recent general order says that not only
had they no right and should have known
better to do so, but it was wrong in their
superiors in command to permit it, nor
will it again be permitted. All soldiers so
separated from their regiment§ will be im
mediately returned to there; and all com
manding officers of all regiments, of which
men are thus, irregularly detached, shall,
if the latter be not returned within a'
reasonable time, promptly report the facts
to the .A djutant General's office for the
further action of the Department.
According to another army order jostissu
ed, no officer ;will hereafter be relieved
from his command and sent to report, in
this city without the authority of the War
Department, Where subordintte officers
are guilty of military offenses, or are neg
ligeut or incompetent, it is the dirty of
commanders to have them tried for their
offenses, or examined in regard to their
incompetency by a proper court of com
missions, and • Ois duty cannot be evaded
by sending to Washington. Hereafter offi
cers so sent to headquarters will be
immediately ordered back and 'those who
sent them will be deemed guil y of disobe
dience of orders. No person shall be mus
tered into the service of the United States

eager for the fray.
.I.le Richmond Whig, speaking of Presi

vile insurrection :in the Confederate States
and it is not misunderstood in the South

stroy four thousand millions of our prop.
erty, and is as much as a bid for the slaves
to rise in insurrection, with the assurance
of aid. from the whole military and naval
power of:the United States. It speaks of
the cruelty of the administration, and says
Butler is a saint ,compared with his mas
ter. Our military operations are hence
forth to assume a very grave character.—
The friends of the new programme will
necessarily destroy all terms between us.
The next campaign will be a tremendous
one, both for the magnitude and character
of the.hostilities. Let our authorities pre

the tremendous shock. The enemy is
making great preparations, as well as is

Cten• Buell Restored to his Corn
We are happy to find the following
paragraph in the Louisville Journal of the
29th ultimo :
t is reported that General Buell was
yesterday relieved from his command of
the department of the Ohio. and General
Thomas appointed to succeed him. Gen.
Thomas, however, telegraphed to Wash
ington, and was backed by nearly all the
other division officers, recommending the
retention of Geis Buell. We are happy
to state that the application was success
ful, and General Buell was restored to the
command in which he has won the confi
dence of oar people, and we are coati dent
that he fully deserves it."
Ile Republican papers are endeavoring
to make their readers believe that our pub
lic debt is only about $500,000,000. The
annual interest on this sum, at 6 per cent.,
would be $30,000,000. But the Direct
Tax Bill, drawn up by Thaddeus Stevens,
and passed by a Republican Congress, for
the purpose of 'paying the interest on the
public debt, will extract ONE HUNDRED
AND FIFTY MILLIONS OF DOLLARS
from the pockets of the people! Now,
one of Iwo things is certain either the
Republion papers are wrong in their esti
mate, or Congress has grossly deceived
and swindled the people on this point, by
taxing them just file times as heautly as
was necessary I We leave the industrious
and hard working Asses to judge between
the Republican papers and the Republi
oan Congress. The amount of tax levied
by Congress ($150,000,000), is the interest
at 6 per cent., of TWENTY-FIVE HUN
DRED MILLIONS, OF DOLLARS !
($2,500,000,000) which sum, it is fair to
presume, Mr. Stevens and his fellow-mem
bets of the Committee of Ways and Means
estimated the public debt would amount
to by the time the assessment and collec
tion of the tax could be made;
If we are wrong, we trust some Repub
lican editor, of financial proclivities,
will
set I/6 right, and show why a tax of $150,•
000,000 waslevied to pay the interest for
one year on a debt of $500,000,000. Ac
cording to oar notion of figures this is
reckoning interest at 30 per cent., and,
therefore, looks like rank usury!

Yellow Fever at Wilmington, N. 0.
The yellow fever` is assuming fearful
proportions in Wilmington, N. C., both in
its rapid spread and malignity, and the in-
habitants of that city are in a most help;
less condition, arising from their utter
ignorance of the disease, and the proper
way of nursing the stricken patient. Let
ters from the plague stricken city appeal
in strong terms for aid, and that can be
rendered effectually only by those aceli•
Mated, and who can venture there without
danger. Captain J. P. Levy, of that city,
who is now at the Spotswood Hot 4 re
quests us to urge .upon those physicians
who are acclimated, and who hive-before
treated the fever, to volunteer and go to
the rescue of those who. without their aid,
must perish. Nurses are also wanted, and
will be liberally paid. All physicians or
nurses who apply to Captain Levy, at the
Spotswood, will receive free transporta
bon to Wilmington.— Richmond r

An Important Difference.
An error was made in the transmission
of the Presil 'Nat's Emancipation Plocla
ruation !by t legraph. The ,lourth clause
should read as follows i
"That the Executive will, on the first
day ofJanuary;aforesaidd)y proclamation,
designate the States and parts of States, if
' any, in which the people thereof respec
tively shall then be in rebellion against the
United States; and the fact that any State,
or the people thereof, shall on that day be
in good faith represented in the Congress
of the United States by members chosen
thereto,.at elections wherein a majority of
the qualified voters of such Stateshall have
participated, shall, in the absence of strong
countervailing testimony,;.be deemed con
clusive evidence that such State and the
people thereof are not then in rebellion
•
against the United States."
The phrase in italics reads in the tele
graph copy, "such State and the people
thereof have not been in rebellion against
the United States." We quote the correct.
ed passage from the official copy.—.. Eve-
ing Post.
PRESIDENT LINCOLN.
The President, having given way to the
radical pressure, may be compelled by
thetii to some things which the people at
present have no idea of:
"As Commander-in-chief of the Army
and Navy (said he to the Chicago Aboli
tionists,) in time of war, I suppose I have
a right to take any measure which rimy
best subdue the enemy."
Any measure! No matter what ! The
Czar of flu :via claims no such power
The Sultan of Turkey seldom or never ex•
ercises such powers.
"Whatever shall appear [continued the
President] to be God's will, I will do."
The President forgets here that, before
God, he has solemnly sworn to support the
Constitution of the United States, the
right of trial by jury, the process of bail, a
free press and free diicussion in that press
--and he should remember, then, that if
ever it "appears — to him that God's will
demands the violation of his oath, taken
as the Executive authority of the United
Stites, it is God's will, too, he should
resign the office of President the moment
he comes to such conclusion, adverse to
these solemn stipulations in the Constitu
Lion of the United States.
