I Make a Note of it. —A soldier, writ ing from Beverly, Vo., to hia Bister in New Brighton, Fa., closes his letter by rojing. “Please send-me the paperß, and write good long letters.*’ There is noth ing (hut 30 cheers and solaces the soldier as the news from home.

It is your duty to do bo -, and Bhonld you neglect it, you fail to do your part'.towarda cheering the hearts and nerving the arms of the brave men who are battling to uphold and sustain the govermnentunder which you live. Again, I we say, send papers to the soldiers in the army, and write often, and write long, cheering letters. The Minstrels had another great house l&8t night.

Cotton may be king in I the summer, but give us king wool for the I winter, at least. I September. —-An exchange says there ib no more glorious time in all the year than the 6arly months of autumn—the sea son when ripened harvests empty them selves into burdened wains. and luscious fruits delight ihe palate. As we luxuriate in the blessings which dow from Cornu copia, and feel invigorated by tho genial sun and bracing air of ihe season, who will not exclaim, “bully for Seotember!” Yes, but the prices. Who will'say “bully for them ?’’ j Peaches.. —This luscious fruit still rates at an exorbitant figure in our market, and whilst we nolice their sale in the Eastern markets at $1 and $1.25 per bushel, dou ble that amount is demanded for them here. Do those who have fruit to sell in this region think we ar,* made of money, that they demand such rates ? We know of quite a number who have sent, to Phila delphia for thei* peaches, and many more will follow their example, if the peaches this market continue 10 rule as b>gh as they . now are - I Building / jOT8 i FOll Sale. —By., refer ence to an advertisement in another col umn, it will be eeen on the 20th inst , a number of valuable buying lots will be offered at public sale.

The most important election ever held in the State takes place uieh, and every man should be assessed and 'ready. On Trial, —TheopboHs George was on yesterday, in the Criminal Court, for rau larceny of $1,600 and a gold watch irpm D. Mcßane, some time Bince.

R. Livings'on, and John Herron. I The Committee, to whom was entrusted I the duty of getting up the photographs, I have performed their task, and the pic- I ture3 are now to be seen in the show win- I dow of Mr. Gillespie, Wood street. _ The | whole three of the likenesses are striking* lly correct and lifelike, and no one who j has ever seen the originals can fail to re- I cognize their counterparts, as reproduced by the photographer’s art. retouched by tbe artist’s pencil. This tribute of re spect, by tbe surviving members of the Board, to their deceased co-laborers, is but just and proper. From tbe infancy of I the institution, these men were its stead I fast friends, and to none more than they ; are we indebted for so noble an institution iD our midst. The photographs are by Mcßride, and the painting by Alfred Wall, and are highly ereditabifCspeciinens of the art. I A Great Family Help. —Having had I one of Wheeler <fc Wilson’s Sewing Ma chines in operation for more than a year, I we can bear testimony of its excellence j and utility. It is not oniy better finished j and durable, and less liable to get out of repair than any other, but it sews far quicker 5 makes a far more durable aad elegant stitch : does its work with greater satisfaction and accuracy; it is lar more | easily operated, and may be u»c-d for [ rinua kinds of work not in the power of I iis rivft-s to accomplish. There 13 no ma chine like it for a family—none which wiil pci form its work so quickly or so well, or give such thorough satisfaction. Those of our readers about purchasing, would do well to bear the fact in mind that, of the many machines now before the public, the Wheeler and Wilson has been by almost unanimous consent pronounced the best.

Country merchants and others will find this a most desirable stock from which to make their selections and at prices which cannot fail to give satisfac tion. A Good Pen for Everybody. —A good pen is very difficult to get, but our read | ers, if they try Miner’s new Aluminum Pen, will fay that its equal for fiuenefl.scf point, flexibility, and all these other qua! fries which go to make a peu desirable, has nevet been manufactured.

On evacuating Chattanooga the enemy retired to Lafayette and massed a force at that place, taking possession of the Gaps of Pigeon Mountain, directly in front of Thomas’ column. The rebel force had been made formidable by new addi tions from Johnston, Buckner, Hindman and Maury. Deserters report that Ihe enemy is now superior in numbers to the ardiy they had at the battle of Murfreesboro’. Among the divisions are Cheatham’s, Dey’s Clo buiu Stewarts, Buckner’s Breckin ridges, Clayboin’ri Hindman’s Slaught er h, and detached brigades of Jackson’s ami Anderson’s—in all thirty-eight bri gades of infantry, of not less than sixty five thousand men. Their formidable numbers and position compelled Rosecrans to concentrate his forces, which were necessarily much scat tered in crossing the Lookout Mountains. I he two lines ot the opposing armies may now be represented by the crescent shaped Pigeon Mountains, which extend as a large t-ircle around Lafayette, the rebels hold ing the interior and we the exterior of the mountains, ihe two forces nre wiih* iu a tow miles of each other, but effectu ally separated by a range of mountains. The rebel position can only be ap proached by three gaps, Catleti’s, Wing and Blue Bird, which are strongly guard ed. The rebel position covers excellent hm?B for retreat on Borne and Calhoun where they will probably make a new line Bhould they be defeated here. There are i rumors that they have been retiring fora cay or two back, but this is considered unreliable. Gen. Rosecrans left. Chattanooga on Sunday, and is now engaged in making disprsitions to suit the new situation. He has been ill. but is in fine spirits. In the fight with Negley the rebels lost over thir ty killed Our loss is seven killed and thirty five wounded. Headquarters i\ the Field, 1 via. Chattanooga, Sept. 17. j AM quiet.

Our army is in splendid health aud spirits. Nkw kotut, September IS. —The Paris correspondent of the New York Times writes from Paris September 4th as fol jwa ; —A most important change has .aken place in European affairß. The Emperor Napoleon has turned a somer set, and now lies in the dust at the feet of Prince (bmschakoff. His position of European dictator is at an end. and here after he will have enough to do to take care of himeeif. His Mujesty tried to carry England and Austria with him into a war with Russia and Prussia on the Polish question, and hoped by this war to conquer the Rhenish provinces, but hie allies took alarm, and while England de clared boldly she would not go to war for Poland. Austria went to work to organize the German Confederation against him. About the same time there came to Paris a i ositive assurance that Mr. C. M. Clay was maturing an alliance between the United States and Rnssia, which en gaged the E nited Stateß to attack Prance tn Mexico in case of an European war. Then arose htfore Napoleon's eye that bugbear ol h.s family—a coalition which should embrace as active enemies Russia, t.ae German Confederation, the United States, and, as a passive but not less dam aging enemy, Greatßritain. Such a com bination would have coat him his crown io t Lr. : o months. Hpsh-.v u, look niarm, and immediately squared round, and (ell on hie knees be fore Gortachaliofl, and protested that he never intended to go to war for Poland • washed his hands of the Polish question! and begged to be friends again. England thus being placed morally in an attitude of hostility to I - ranee and Russia, will be forced into a friendship with the United States. Another result of affairß is that the Mexican elephant will be left on Napo leon’s hands, for the Grand Duke Maxim illian now refuses the new throne, and there is no other Prince eligible or accept able who will take it. There is now evi dence that the intrigues of the French Ca||nlo in the South for the detaching of Tgkhs was true, and they have not ceased. In regard to the Florida at Brest, the same correspondent states that the en gines of the Florida are of English.manu facture, and much deranged. Maffit was obliged to stop somewhere, bnt fonnd after arriving at Brest that the French workmen conld not repair his English en gines, and he would have to wan till he’ conld get English workmen from England. All this has caused a delay, which haß put Maflit into a towering rage, but now his vessel will probably suffer the fate of the Sumter at Gibraltar, but there is no help for it. Maffit Bays that bnt for the mistake of Lieut Reed, who cut out the Caleb Cushing at Portland, it was in his programme at one time to enter the port of New York or Boston and burn the place. When the Florida first came into the port of Brest, Mr. Dayton protested, for mally, againßtgiier admission, but not, probably, with JEe expectation of having her expelled, for so far the French have faithfully executed their neutrality proc lamation in all other respects, and it wad to be expected they would also in this; But a protest guaranteed the incidental points which might arise, and prevented an extension of favors not fonnd in the neutrality proclamation, if snch shonld be attempted. The Monileur this morning publishes an official note 011 the subject which de clares that she will only be allowed to re pair such damages as regards her navig i tion, bnt no supplies in war material will be furnished her. Philadelphia, September 18.—The Press has the following : Our army will not have to rest this side of the Rapidan. For two days our soldiers hare been without fire, fearing to attract the enemy's attention, who would have shelled them. General Kilpatrick made several feints to cross the Rapidan, bnt fonnd he could not live a moment on the other side.-r- Yesterday and to day the rebels crossed the Rapidan near Racoon Ford, and drove 150 of onr men away, bnt were afterwards driven back in confusion by ns. We lost about thirty. Rumor says that a strong force of reb elj crossed at Raccoon Ford this morning and captnred one*hundred and fifty of oOr cavalry. The rebels have a strong posi tion on the Rapidan but no great force. I Sept. 18.—It ia understood I!j* ii en ‘ arll side acquiesces in the cor* j ex P r esaed wish of the Preaid mt to his resignation. The draft in Cincinnati has been post poned. owing to an error of 6 000 in the apportionment. The draft will proceed as soon as the error is corrected- The draft will be next enforced in Min nesota. In the event of a change of com manders in the Department ot Missouri General Butler will probably be assigned to that department. Washington, Sept, 18.—The President himself is not aware that Gen. Gillmore has tendered his resignation. Amusements. PIT? ttßURUBS THEATRE. Ltfgeo and Manager * m Uenpkcsos Trem urer. LA&T NIGHT Of the Ke engagment of tho Beaut.ful Actress, Miss SUSAN DJESIN.

The trestle bridge of Douglas, Speer A Co., the bridge of A. W. Leiacuring, and N. W. country bridge above Maunch Chunk, have been washed away. It is reported that the Coffers dam above there is washed away. No dam age to the railroad or canal is reported as yet, j the Blockade. &C. t &C tfcc.

Yes terday morning the line was changed, the army having advanced to close proximity to the river; where Ihe rebel corps of A. F- Hill and Ewell are believed to be most Strongly fortified. The Army of the Po tomac was never in as fire a condition as it is at the present moment. It is worth to day, in a hard fight, twice as much SB it ever was before the battle of Gettys burg. - J Reports as to the strength of the enemy on the other side of the Rapidan are nu merous and conflicting. A telegram from the headquarters dated to-day says noth ing of importance has occufred, our posi tion on the Rapidan remaining unchanged.

Roso crans has assumed a strong defensive po °n creek covering Chattanooga, but evinces no disposition to attacii at. present. Preparations to do so cat not be completed fori a few days, at which time a battle must ensue. Gen. bianley of the cavalry corps is very ill and has gone to the rear. Gen. R. B, Mitch ell succeeds in the command. Louisville, Sept. 18. —Rumors have been prevalent here for the paßt three days, ot adrertes to General Rosecrans’ anr.y, ail of which have beer, discredited by the military authorities. They proba bly arose from the fact, that ou Sunday a rebel force ol 16.000 BtroDg attacked Neg ley's brigade 5,300 strong, at Bird’s Gap and drove them back three and a half mtlcß. Negley recovered his ground the next morning with a loss of 36 killed, wounded aud missing. Our forces buried 36 rebels found ou the ground on Monday morning. The number of the killed and wounded which had been removed is un known, but it is supposed to be consider able. Huadqurters ofthe Cumberland, Sept. 16. All reports ot an engagement here are false. The enemy has been busy to day feeling our lines. Artillery duels' have been brisk, with few casualties. They may be getting into a position for attack ing u> to-morrow. Little doubt remains that either Longstreet’s or Ewell’s corps may be here any day, which may bring on an engagement. The pubiic will be early informed of the beginning and progress of the battle, if any occurs.
