Democrats be Assessed. It iB. the bounden duty 6f every Demo crat, who desires the perpertuity of the Union, and the re-establishment of peace throughout the land, to see that he is properly assessed, in order that his right to vote may not be questioned. The friends of Woodward and Lowric, should bear in mind the fact that after Friday, October 2d, they cannot be assessed, and that being forewarned is forearmed. Call on your respective district Assessors, and Bee that your elective franchise is all right. The law requires that every application for assessment, should be made personally, so that it cannot be legally done by proxy. We call on all Democrats, to see to this fact, and have every thing relative to their right to vote legally acd judicially enact ed* And above all things let it be borne in mind, that your taxes must be paid di rectly to the County Ireasurer . ft will not do to wait until the day of the election, in the hope of paying them at the polls. The Treasurer alone is authorized to re ceive money for taxes. Be sure, then, that you go to his office, and secure your re ceipt from him.

The oxhorbitant Erice which coal in this city has reached, as induced onr people to seek a new channel by which to Bupply themselves with this indispensable article. The re sult is that anthracite coal is now being shipped over the Pennsylvania Railroad, and delivered at our doors cheaper than coal furnished by our own dealers. At first view this seems to be utterly impose! ble. Bat it is true, nevertheless. It has been found by practical test that coal can be shipped from the mines in the East and sold here for less than ten cents a bushel. This will be good news to our people, who, surrounded as it were, by an amphitheatre of coal hills, are compelled to pay two prices for it, with the very comfortable assurance from those who sell the article that it will reach ctill higher figures. But we feel assured that this new phaunel of supply will not only be the means of keeping it from going up any higher, but will cause it to recede in price to something like its just value. If, then, there are any coal miners in this region who contemplate a demand for higher wa ges, or speculators who expect to grow rich by a rise in “black diamonds.” let them make a note of these facts, and act m their better judgments shall dictate. We noticed, yesterday, two houses on Market street having their cellars filled with anthracite coal. Harper's. Monthly. —John P. Hunt, book, periodical and news dealer, sends ub Harper's New Monthly Magazine for October. The number before us fully sustains the enviable position which this magazine has earned for itßelf. For sale at Bunt's, Fifth street. Fine —We regret to learn that the hotel and eating house of Mr. Sourbeck, at Al liance* on the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Cbicsgo Railroad, was totally destroy ed je*terdayl)y fire. This will be regret tedby.tkownds who have regaled them •elvetrafc tit©tables of this widely known hotel' irrand Lodge of Odd Fellows. We yesterday noticed the feet that the Grand Lodge of the United States of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, was x n session at Baltimore. From the report of the Grand Secretary we glean the fol lowing : Ha reports the order as in a healthful condition, Heaho declined an application from the Past Grands of seven lodges in Western Virginia for permission to organize a grand lodge at Wheeling, but left, the matter to the Grand Lodge. In Canada West the order is improving, and in the Lower British Provinces there is a steady success. Michigan indicates a continued healthful progress of the order. A contribution of $263 16 was made to the Wildey monument fund. Massachusetts shows a large increase. The admissions were 278, and the suspensions, withdraw als and expulsions 172, showing a larger gain than for ten or twelve years past. The Patriarchal brancKofthe order is also in a sound and healthy condition. In New Hampshire a general prosperity pre vails, there having been a considerable gain in numbers, but a decrease in the I number of lodges. Vermont shows an unhealthy condition, and it is feared that the Grand Lodge of that Btate will cease to exist if relief is not soon afforded. In Rhode Island the order is in good condition, though without much increase. Southern New York shows in creased vitality and greater interest during the past year, the initiations having been more than for several years past. Iu New Jersey the order has maintained itself well, and promises well for the future. The report from Pennsylvania shows a slight decrease iu the membership, bat & larger amount of receipts, and a larger amount disbursed for relief. In the Dis trict of Columbia the order is increasing. In Delaware the order is in as good condi tion as could be expected under the cir cumstances. Financially the lodges are in very good circumstances. Maryland shows a Blight decrease in membership, but in all things else it is prosperous. Missouri is not making as rapid progress ! as in years gone by. In Illinois tne order is still prosperous. The increase in initia tions was 967, and of membership over 500, making a total membership of 6,830. There was granted for relief $7,04'.*, 11. In Connecticut the order remains in about the Bame condition as at the last re port. In Indiana there is an increased prosperity, the initiations having more thau doubled those of the previous year. The report from Ohio says that at no pe riod was the order on a more solid basis. In Kentucky full reports were not received from the subordinate lodges, out there was a general prosperity. Tennessee has Buffered severely and the order was on the verge of annihilation, but hopes are en tertained that it will entirely recover from the shock. From Wisconsin the report ib satisfactory. In lowa the order is thought to be in a more healthy condition than it was a year ago. In California the rrder is still on the march of prosperity. K gh* teen new lodges were formed daring the year and nearly 1,000 new members added. The report from Minnesota shows a mark ed improvement. The order prospers in Oregon, and the future is bright. The report from Kansas shows quite a healthy condition of the order. In Nebraska the order is prosperous, as it is al&o in the Sandwich Islands. The receipts from the grand lodges dur ing the year were $5,131,19, and from the grand encampments $1,190,10, and the en tire recei'ts from all Bources were $14,- 749,39. Of this amount $8 650,57 is the revenue proper of the year, which presents nearly as gratifying a state of finauces as at the last session, when the receipts were $9,208,66, The Day of Atonement. —The He brew fast of the Atonement began on Tues day evening, with the appearance of the stars, and continued until the same hour last evening. This is one of the most sol emn fastß observed by the Israelilieh church, and is unto this day strictly re garded among that people, though many of the ceremonials are dispensed with. In the early days of the church the priest who made the sac, iGcc cf the atonement were required to put on holy lioeu garments, girded with a linen girdle, and a linen mi tre. The goats and bullock were then made offerings for sin, and the blood was springled on the mercy seat. In these lat ter days these ceremonies are not observ ed, but the people keep a fast for four and twenty hours, uor do they permit any ser vile work in their households. The ob servance of the day is strictly required cf all who are reeoguized as members of any of the congregations, aod there are but few who do not respect it. October Magazines. —John W. Pit lock, opposite the PcHt Office, sends us the October magazines. Harper, as usual, is beautifully illus trated. The leading article beiDg the first Craiae of the Monitor Passaic. This ar ticle alone is well worth the price of sub scription. The Continental Monthly is a splendid number. Among the contents, we notice articles on the Freedom of th*:• Pres:t ; Jefferson Davis; Repudiation Recognition and Slavery by Hon. R. J. Walker ; Thir ty days with the Severity first Regiment;’ Currency and the National Finance*. Taken altogether, this is one of the most valuable numbers ever issued. For sale as above. Mr. Pitlock has also received at the Sporting papers lor Saturday, including Wilkes Spirit and the Clipper. These pa pers are filled with sporting matters, both Foreign and Domestic. Morris’ Minstrels. The return of these celebrated minstrels, after an ab sence of three years, has proved a com plete triumph. The crowds which have nightly greeted them gives evidence of the superior excellence of this company. There is an entire change of programme each night, hence thoße who attend one evening may feel assured that on the next they will not be wearied by repetition. It is really worth twice the rrice ofadmia sion to hear Mr. Doll perform upon hie wonderful crvstalernia, the first and only instrument of the kind ever exhibited in this city or -elsewhere. Go to Concert Hall to night. More Burglars i.v Allegheny.—We would adviße the police in Allegheny to bestir themselves and arrest some of the numerous thieves who now seem to infest that city. On Tuesday night several hoaseswere entered and valuable articles carried off. In order, as it were, to aid the rascals io their nefarious work, it seems that the gas is turned off at unusual hours. It is poor economy to “blow out the gas lamps" every time the almanac tays the moon will shine. Clouds will sometimes obscure the brightest sun, and the moon, pale orb of night, often disappoints us from the same cause. The Puff Direct.— The Democratic Standard in noticing the Curtin demon stration in Harrisburg, on Friday last, says* “.The next speaker was P. C. Shannon,’ Esq., of Pittsbnrg, a renegade Democrat, and, according to his own assertion, the only public man in Allegheny conntv who supports Andrew G. Curtin.” P r t that iu your pines, ye other wonld-be “ public men in Allegheny county.” Democratic Rally. -There was a grand rally ofthe Democracy of Lawre nce county, held yesterday at Enon Bta<don, on the Pittsburgh, Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad.

Blunt’s Army Address to the People of Kansas TENNESSEE ARMY RE INFORCEDI New York, Sept. 23. —A Charleston harbor letter states that everything is very quiet there. The Herald's letter sayß : A great deal of work is beiDg done of an important character, the nature of which cannot at present be revealed, but thd re sults of which will soon develop them selves. On Wednesday last there was a severe gale from the northwest, and it continued to blow with great fary until Thursday night, when it moderated, and finally died away. Tents were blown down, and their occupants compelled to remain out of doors, exposed to one of the severest rain storms I have witnessed for some time. The tides ran unusnally high, and huge waves rolled fur on the beach and over the levee of sand constructed about the campß, and completely swept down the front rows of tents and drowned the soldiers. The vessels in the Roads pitched and rolled violently, and many of them dragged their anchors. Fortunately none went ashore. The Chattanooga Courier of the 16th has the followirg: A very sad accident occurred atßattery Cheeves, James Island, about ten o’clock on Tuesday morning. A magazine exploded killing five men. We have not learned the cause of the ex plosion nor how many were woonded. The rebel steamer “Sumter” was Bunk between Moultrie and Sumtera few days ago, but in what manner the Courier does not state. Governor Bonham baa called an extra sesition of the StateLegis- Iniure to meet at Columbia on September 25th. ANTHOXY MUTER Governor Bonham, in a proclamation, calls out all the arms bearing population of the State over sixteen years of age, not in or liable to the Confederate service, for State defence. The term of enlist ment of lho9e accepted is six months. The rebel batteries of James Island have been busily engaged in shelling our cemps on Black Island during the post three or four days, bat had not occasioned a eiugU casualty up to last night. Tbo rebels &eem to be under the irapr-'-s sion that something is going on that does no*, promise well to their cause, as our men are silent, and no guns have been fired on our aide recently. It is not im probable they are correct in their surmises, bat their efforts to shell us out will signal ly fail to remove the cause of their fears. As I write, Gregg is being rapidly shell ed by Batteries Bee and Simpkins on Sul livan’s aud James Islands. No eonider able number of casualties have occurred lately on this island from rebel ait Mery practice, although at times it has been qaiie hot and well directed. rJTTSBI /,’•,//. St. Lena, September —A Leaven worth special to the Democrat contains advices from General Blunt's army to the 10th inst. General Blunt is in very poor health, and was about to leave fer Furl Scott. All is quiet at Fort Smith and vtciuity. except from a few bushwhackers. Oar cavalry is continually reconnoitering and keeping the guerrillas at a respectful distance. The rebels are falling back to Shreveport. La Kirby Smith is in com maud. About one* hundred men are r»* cruited daily at Fort Smith. The enlist ment of negroes is also brisk. Gen. Bluul has :s?ued an uddreea to the people of Western Arkansan, in which he Btßu r ea them tballho federal occupation is permanent ; that the whole of the Indian Control, and ad rebel troopß are being driven beyond Red river, fallowed by the most anxious rebel cili/t-ns. He leeL assured that the love and attachment for the I T nion is not extinct in Western At kansas. by ihe j <y ehown at the appear auce of his troops, and the reports o! del egatiuna who have visited him from the interior of Arkansas, and the arrival of hundreds of r< fugcee to enlit! in oar army, gives assurance of the fact. He feelingly alludes to tho persecutors ot Union men. and closes his address aa fellows : Many applications have been made by the citizens for safeguards. None will be is sued. The best safeguard you can have is the American flag uuturled over your premises, and deport yourselves as be comes good loyal citizens. Your conduct be your safeguards. If it be your defeiro todiser/hral yourselves from the tyranny and suppression to which yon have been subjected, organize a civil gov ernment under the auspices of the I ’m'.i'd States authority. Every facility will be afforded to accomplish that purposo. I leave the matter with you, trusting wise counsels may prevail. New Yore, Sept. 28. — A Tima special dated Washington, September 22, says : It may be considered finally settled that there will be no draft in Ohio. The Stale is deficient eight thousand moo only, which will be readily made up by volun teer enlistments, under the ample boun ties which the Provost Marshal General is about to offer. A flag of truce boat, which left Fortress Monroe on Saturday for City Point* has not been heard from since. It is believed that the rebel authorities have detained her to prevent the officers of the Sanitary Commission, who have been prisoners in Richmond, and wereon their return, giv ing information regarding the rebel movements. Louisville, Bept. 23. —The Journal libb received information, which it credits that on Monday night tne right and left wing of Rosecranß’ grand army rested ou the battle ground of Saturday and Sun day, and reinforcements, the number not e’ated, from Grant via Decatur, were to 'Lava reached him yesterday. Rosecrans’ headquarters wore four: miles from the battle field, in the rear of tho centre. Rosecrans is in good spir its, and is hopeful of a complete and de cisive victory over Jobnatou, Bragg and Longstreet It is reported that A. P. Hill is in command of the Confederate forces opposed to Rosecrans. New York, Sept. 23. —A World Bpecial says: General Halleck haß given the or der for the Army of the Potomac to move forward. The situation on the Rapidan has undergone no material change on eith er aide. The enemy is understood to be fortifying the approaches to Orange Court House and Gordonaville. General Lee’s wnole army, it is estima ted, is now oomposod of A. P. and D. H. •Hill’s corps—the latter evacuating Rich mond lately to reinforce Lee—and. Hood's division, of Longstreet’s corps* with Stu art’s cavalry; making an aggregate of fcr .y thousand men. New York, Sept. 22. —‘The steamship Mississippi reports passing Charleston at 3 o’clock Sunday morning, and heard heavy firing. The Fulton reports the work of mounting guns on Battery Gregg as very slow in consequence of the annoyance re ceived from rebel battery Bee and Fort Moultrie, by shot and shell fired at inter vals of about twenty minutes.

Meade in Washington Important Announcement Con corning the Hebei Hama. &c M «te., dc., dc. Washington, September 23.-— General Rosecrans has performed wonders in reaching his present position, after fight ing with hie single command against the immense forces of picked troops that were combined against him. When the last dispatch of yesterday closed the enemy was quite active. He had been making approaches all the morning. Gen. Rose crans’ men were in line and ready for an other encounter. Gen. Graham, who commanded one of our brigades at Gettysburg, and was taken prisoner and convoyed to Richmond, has recently been discharged, and reached here this morning. Gen. Graham has communicated important information to the Government. He is satisfied that only two divisions ol Longstreet’s corps, with all hie artillery, have been sent to Bragg. In addition to that, two brigades were also detailed to reinforce Bragg. General Graham aayß he saw eighty one pieces of cannon moving across the bridge from R'chmond, said to be going to Br&gg. The news of the battle fongbt between Bragg and Rosecrans was n disappoint ment to the rebel authorities at Rich mond. They expected to hear that Rose* crane had been annihilated, and that Bragg had re taken East Tennessee. In stead of that, Richmond is in a state ol mourning for the losses Rosecrans has in flictcd on Bragg. The Times' special despatch says : The Military Commission was ordered to re port at Chicago, October Ist, to examine and report on the alleged abases iu refer ence to supplies of hospitals at that place, and also abuses in regard to pay received for soldiers discharged, and ta supplying artificial limbs. L is reported the enemy have removed a large number of prisoners from Rich mond to Charleston, to prevent Gillmore from shelling that city. Deserters lately came into our lines with a statement to the effect that Savannah was almost in a defenceless state. Trcopa had been called to Charleston, leaving only & small garri son i !i the forts. A<i unofficial dispatch from Chattaooo ga to qo army officer speaks of the en gagement of Monday last, when Long street's corps attacked the corps of Gen. Thomas, a complete Union victory. The fact that Thomas was able to join Rose crans at Chattanooga on Monday receives positive confirmation in this dispatch. Major General Meade was hero r or an hour or two this forenoon, iu col saltation wit. President I.tc.k'i, the Secretary ol V> ar, and '.be Cummuti ler in-Chief, and thru promptly returned 10 doty.

A latter from Boston, of Aug. *22J, re ports the Vanderbilt thero. The following important announcement concerning the iron clud rams in the Mer sey. appears in the London Morning Her ald. of the 12th inst.: “We are informed that L vrl Kusiell. on Wednesday, dee patched, by written order, a positive order to Messrs Laird to prevent these vessels leaving thfir yards, without ample expla nation cf their destination, a sustainable reference to tbeir owner or owners for whom they are constructed. It is now af firmed, moreover, that the French Am ba.y-ador has been appealed to as to the possibility of a French subject having or dined vessels. Of this statement of au English ship builders there is declared to have come an official reply from his Excellency, that uo French subject has any legal right to possess or purchase ves sels of war either for himself or on behalf of others. The Courier lies Elat Unis gives a cat egorical denisl to the rumors of French recoguilion of the South. The Post's Washington letter of the 22d says: General Meade’s army is undoubt edly moving upon Gordonsville, and it would surprise no one here to hear that a battle was fought between him and Lee before Sunday. Lee still commands the Army of Virginia, but his strength cannot be over 40,000. The strength ot General Meade’s army it would be imprudent to estimate, but unless all the reports which are sent up from the Rapidan are shame fully false, it is ready to offer battle to the enemy. Captain Redglany, commanding the steamer Shanandoah, reports under date of the 17th, off New Inlet, N. C., that a blockade runuer attempted to como out on the night of the 15th, and was driven back and now lies a wreck at the month of the harbor. Chattanooga, Sept. 23.— N0 attack has yet been made by the enemy, though it was coufideutly expected to day. Our position has been vastly strengthened meanwhile, by additional works, com manding the approaches from the South, while the flanks are amply cared for. The army is in the best of spirits since the fact became apparent that the Chickaman ga fight was almost as much of a de feat for the rebels as for us.— Rosecrans was rapturously received along the lines this p. m. The only dem onstration to-day was by a heavy column of infantry and artillery threatening our left, but crossing Missionary Ridge to wards Ringgold, without replying to our artillery. It is believed the movement is to intercept Burnside, who is expected by the rebels at Chickamanga, His reverse haß probably been much over estimated, and no occasion for their alarm for the B&fety of this army. Atlanta, Sept, 22.—The fight still goes on. We have every confidence that the enemy will be drawn from his present stand, Mission Ridge, six to eight miles from Chattanooga. I AXD r Hook, Sept. 23.—The steamer China, from Liverpool on the 12th, via on the 13th, has passed this !rk int *ri on^on a * eB to the 12th 6ay: lhe Government has certainly resolv ed to stop the Bteam rams io the Mersey* The b iorida is de ivered at Brest, to sat isfy the breach claims. It is positively asserted that Maximillion accepts the Mexican crown. Earl Russell, it is said, argues to him self that the rams could only be ves sels for the warlike purposes of a State or an individual. His lordship bolds that Messrs. Laird are bound to declare and sustain an unimpeachable testimony of such declaration that it was the govern ment for whom the steam rams were built, lhe Secretary for foreign affairs is qlbo of • j*°P} n^on if these vessels are for an oWner » native or foreign, that individual could only be a privateer or pi rate, and it is on these groanda that the government makes up its mind. At any rate the English government has firmly resolved to try the question in the courts of law, and if amerced for damages, to make an appeal for support to the House ol commons. Liverpool, Sept. 13.—The Tribunal of Commerce of Bordeaux has tried an in surance case involving the question—is the Alabama a pirate or a privateer ? The decision was that the Alabama has not ex ceeded belligerent rights, nor incurred the reproach of piracy. An applicarion has been made to the Marseilles Tribunal of Commerce by the owners of some of the cargo of the ship W. B. Wash, for author-; ization to seize the Florida at Breast, fill the claim for $lOO,OOO is settled- lhe authorization was granted. Mr. Field har gone to Breast to arrange the affair. A Paris letter asserts that the legal decision will be adverse to the claim. Cyrus W, Field returns to New York in the Chine. Before departing he arranged everything iB perfect trim for the laying of the Atlan tic Telegraph Cable Dext summer. The contract of Messrs. Glass, Elliot, & Co., binds them to a successful performance of the work, and they have already commen ced the manufacture of the cable. Hold ing them to all risks, even to the working of the cable, have been insured on ex ceedingly favorable terms. Nashville, Bept. 23 —News from the front to day are meagre. No trains from the Soath to-night, they are reported being dttaioed to bring up the wounded. A tel egram from the front reports no fighting to day, our forces still hold the position ol yesterday, which is an evidence of strength as every hour increases chances for rein forcements from Burnside lo arrive, and enables our forces to more thoroughly en trench themselves, though no definate as surance of the arrival has yet been re ceived. Brig. Gin. John H. hidg. re ported wounded and prisoner* is neither. Telegrams from the front report him safe. Mej. Coolidgp, second in command is certainly killed Four hundred guerrillas, under Com. Murray, are hovering about Carthage, threatening to attack the place. A small force of guerrillas under Haw kins is reported lnrfeiDg about this vicini ty, having his headquarters at Williams port, west of Franklin, on the Dack river. Fortress Monroe, Sept. 23. —The 6teamer New York arrived this evening Irom City Point. The Richmond Whiq, bf the 23d, received, reports three days’ hard fighting 'in Northern Georgia, with heavy losses on both sides. The rebel loss is ■> i»00, including many .valuable officers.
