Big Guns.

A letterlfrom Washington says: The
fift Zen inch Dahlgren gun has arrived here
froth Pittslprgh, and the usual tests are to
be applied it at the navy yard, under
the directioh of Capt. Dahlgren himself.—
The ordnatie department of, the yard is
under his ei'elusive charge.'
The folloiling are the dimensions of a
1:5 - inch navy gun cast at the Fort Pitt
Works on Thursday last: maximum diam
eter, 48 inches ; minimum, rough, 38
inches; miniinum finished, 261 inches;
Bore, 15 inches; length ' of gun, 13 ft. 7
inches; weight 'of rough casting, 68,000
pounds; weight of finished gun, 42,200
pounds; weight of solid shot, 432 pounds;
weight of ordinary shell, 330 pounds.
Three othei guns were cast at the same
time --one 9-itich navy gun, and two heavy
rifled pieces. Fr The whole weight of metal
was successfully run; and in fact we may
say that the above is not much out of the
ordinary routide of business at these works,
so immense htive their works become.
The Stamp Law.
The internaLtax law, which went into
operation on the Ist instant, requires that
a stamp be planed upon all checks, drafts,
deeds, and 13t110 documents; but the gov
ernment has \ not been able to provide a
sufficient quantty of these stamps in time,
and therefore they cannot be had as yet,
in the ordinary way of purchase, any
where. There its a penalty of fifty dollars
for neglect to use them, but Commissioner
Boutwell has It:notified the public .that
"until the govqnment provides stamps no
penalty will beiexacted for their omis
sion." So thati until stamps are offered
for sale, no one need fear to do without
them. No docUment, according to the
law, has any leg4l force until it is stamped,
but any such paj)er executed up to Janu
ary next can betmade legal by affixing a
proper stamp afterwards, and paying five
dollars to the clerk of the court. This
explanation hasilbeen made in substance
before, but the laW and the decisions seem
to be so imperfe`,Ctly understood that they
are repeated here;,

Important
,Order.
I Commissioners of the draft,. by an or.
der of the Department, are allowed to re
ceive and credit on the quota of the differ
ent localities, volunteer recruits for nine
months. This is an important fact, and it
will afford many counties the opportunity
to raise their quota before the 16th of Oc
tober, as such volunteers will be received
by the different Commissioners through
out the State up to that time. Some thous
and men, thus received, have already ar
rived at Camp Curtin. It must be borne
in mind that these recruits can only be re
ceived by the Commissioners of the draft.
For Further Rearing..
Mayor Alexander has held Busser and
Fresh, the two detected burglars, for
further hearing on Tuesday next. Busser's
house was searched and a number of arti
cles, supposed to be stolen, found, viz:
two pair of pants, one overcoat, an office
key, blue cloth coat, four blankets, a lot
of gloves, a chest filled with tools, two
pistols, made so as to resemble walking
canes; a galvanic battery, a magnificent
rifle, several pitch candles, a gold pen, a
lancet, a cabalistic skull, &c. Both are; it
is known, old offenders.
The Slaty-Third.
We invite attention to the card of Lieut.
G. E. Gross, in another column. Since
the first of July he has.sent 193 recruits to
the veteran 63d regiment, commanded by
Col. Hays. He is still recruiting at Wil
kins' Hall, and will take men forany regi
ment or any branch of the service. All
the.usual boanties will be paid. Lieut.
Gross is a goods officer, and'reliable in
every way.
After the Stragglers.
The Provost Guard were busily engaged
on Saturday in picking up the stragglers
from Milroy's brigade who tailed to-get
away on Friday, and a number were sent
off. Capt. Wright, Provost Marshal is
continually picking up deserters and send
ing them on to their regiments. Two were
arrested on Saturday. A squad of the
Seventh cavalry,' taken prisoners at Mur
freesboro' and recently exchanged, were
also sent back to Tennessee on Saturda • .
The Gymnasium.
We have already stated the causes of the
decline of our Gymnasium and that an ef
fort was being made to.reinvigorate the
institution. We desire now to call atten
tion to the fact thal a meeting will be held
this evening for election and reorganiza
tion, and to urge all who feel the slightest
interest to be present and give assistance.
The value of the Gymnasium in times past
should be a Anfficient reason for its main
tenance now.
Duquesne Guards.
This company, composed of residents of
the Second Ward, and officered by Capt.
Jas. R. Reed and Lieutenants Jas. Vick
and Jas. Miller, held a meeting on Friday
evening, at which, it was determined to
keep up, the organization, so that the com
pany may be ready, to defend our State
whenever required. Uniforms for all the
members are to be procured at once, and
all necessary equipments The " Guards"
was one of the est companies in the 16th

militia, and will intain its reputation.
_ .
Wlll Make Return.
The officers of the Corcoran regiment.
.who had recruited squeds of men have ex
pressed to the Provost Marshal their in
tention of keeping 'within the law, hold
ing their men together, and making report
at the time fixed, Friday next. They say
they can account for every man enlisted
by them.
Miss Alice Plaelde.
This accomplished actress makes her
first appearance on Pittsburgh boards to
night and if repo speak truly f er a
rare treat may be rt
looked s
for aw o ing h her
engagement. She has choien an excellent
but difficult part for her debut, that of
Cynthia, the gipsy girl, in "Flowers of
the Forest , "one which will give her
eery opportunity to display her powers.
We expect to see the house well filled
during the week. The farce for this even
ing is a new one, entitled, "The Live
Indian."
Acting Brigadier.
A Washington dispatch says: Colonel
Schimmelfenning is now acting. Brigadier
in place of General Koltes, who was shot
a short time since. His own regiment,
the Seventy-fourtb Pennsylvania, and the
Seventy-third Pennsylvania, together with
several others, form the brigade. The
first named was supplied with new Muskets
yesterday.
The Eighty. Third.
The Erie Observe?. says : "We are in
formed that this gallant regiment, which
left our city last fall, with a full thousand
stout and hearty men in its ranks, hag been
reduced so that it now numbers but 98
members. In addition to its otiginal num
bers, the regiment received at . different
times about 250 recruits, making in all
about 1260. Think. of that men left
out of 1250? Of the number missing, one-
third haveprobably been killed, another
third crippled for life, and the balance
have suffered from disease."

have from thirty to thirty-five thousand
men within a circle of eight miles diameter
around Bardstown.
Onr central advance was this afternoon,
four miles this side of Bardstown and
have been skirmishing and driving the re
bels before them. The past three days
we captured six hundred prisoners.
It is;said Kirby Smith arrived at Frank
fort with ten thousand men, and Hutoph
rey Marshal is on his way thither with five
thousand rebels, evidently near, and will

ebel army to the North of the' Ohio.
The rebels are cutting new roads from
Bardstown to Springfield and Lexington.
The leading rebels and officers or the
confederate army are circulating the moat
absurd stories in places occupied by them,
for instance, that General Nelson was
killed because he supported President
Lincoln's recent emancipation proclama
tion. That Buell. resigned because of that
proclamation, but concluded to hold his
Lposition six days longer in the hope that
incoln would annul that document.
The rebels are rigidly enforcing the con
cderate conscription act wherever they
lave temporary control.

CAPE RAPE, Oct. :i.—The following ad
ditional intelligence from Europe is fur
nished by the City of Washington, which
passed this point on 'Friday morning:
The London Times, in an editorial treat
ing of the recent reverses to the Federal
army, says it thinks they will have the
effect to restore the liberty of speech in
the North, and, apparently, must suspend
the Government at Washington.
The Morning Post says that a strange
and unlooked for coup d' elat may possi
bly terminate the war. It adds that a man
of ordinary firmness may establish out of
the ruins of the Union a new republic,
and that even it' Jeff Davis assumes the
Presidency of the United States the North
will accept him in•order to preserve unity.
It was stated that the doctrine of the
Federal Government, that foreign trading
vessels, not carrying contraband goods,
shall possess permits to enter ports of the
is held by France as wholly inad
missible in its operations on commerce.
France has energetically protested against
the capture of the ship LaManche at New
Orleans.
The substitute for cotton which attract
ed so much attention consists of fibres of
a marine plant, known as Borttea Marine
or common grass wrack. The Manchester
Cotton Supply Association, at its annual
meeting, took a hopeful view of the ca
pacity of India, but denounced the de
structive policy of the Indian government.
The impeachment of Sir Charles Wood
was called for.
The ng at Be wof a ious
character,rioti bat attended lfast as
by no loss of ser life.
Business in the French cotton manufac

the revolution of 1849.
The condition of Garibaldi's health con to improve, but it was expected that
many months will elapse before he can be
removed. The granting of an amnesty to
him and his followers was again rumored.
)(attest via Queenstown
LIVERPOOL, Sept. 25.—The American
Consul at Vienna wrote to Garibaldi, ask
ing him, as be had failed in his patriotic
efforts m Italy, if he would offer his val
iant arms in the:American struggle for
liberty and unity, and promising him an
enthusiastic reception.
Garibaldi, under date of September 14th,
replied: "I am a prisoner and dangerous
ly wounded; it is consequently impossible
for me to dispose of myself. However,
as soon as I and restored to liberty, and
my wounds are healed, I shall take the
first favorable opportunity to satisfy my'
desire to serve the great American repub
lic, of which I am a citizen, and which is
now fighting for universal liberty."
The above correspclodence appears in
the " Wanderer," of Vienna. There is
no other news of importance.
LOUIS7II.I.E, October s.—The Louisville
special dispatch of the 2d, concerning the
taking of five hundred rebels by Rossean's
division was incorrect; it doubtless was
based on the fact that an entire Georgia
regiment of cavalry three hundred and
sixty strong, was captured -in the early
part of last week by Lieut. Col. Seward,
of the Second Indiana, commanding his
own and the Second and Third Kentucky,
which surrounded and completely sur
prised the rebels at breakfast, who sur
rendered without the slightest resistance.
Col. Crawford, commanding the captured
regiment is Ex - Congressman and one or
the -Con lederate_peace commissioners to
Washington. These prisoners reached
here'last evening.
The rebels in large force evacuated
Bardstown yesterday morning at ten
o'clock. Brig Gen, Vancleve, of Minn-,
leading the advance of Crittenden's corps,
entered Bardstown last evening, at six
o'clock, eight hours after the evacuation
thereof by the rebels, and were to pursue
them this morning.
Rumors are prevalent here that Sill's
Federal force was attacked. by Kirby
Smith's rebel force at Hardinsville to-day
and driven back four' miles. The rumor
is entirely discredited.
!New y, as, October 4.—The - prize
steamer Sunbeam, from New Inlet, N. C.,
