We have not seen any confirmation of the reported death of John C. Breckin ridge ; the probability U, however, that the report is true. He was a very valiant and intrepid commander, and delighiod to lead his followers even where it was a forlorn hope. He seemed to be indif ferent to life ; remorse had fastened upon him, and, it is said, drove him to exces sive drinking ; his blood was so corrupted by liqoor as to render recovery from the wounds he received at Ringgold impos sible, Of all those who went off into rebellion John C. Breckinridge was most to be despised and at the same time pitied. He was really a spoiled child. From early manhood he was the recipient of honors such as others have to wait and labor for. In the Mexican war, at the age of twenty five, he became a Major of Infantry, and distinguished himself as the counsel of General Pillow during his famous court martial. On his return from Mexico Breckinridge was elected to the Legis lature, and in 1851 he was sent to Con gress from Henry Clay's old district, and was re elected iu L 853, President Pierce offered him the Spanish Mission, which he declined. In 1856, he had the Vice Presidency actually thrust upon him, and four years after he was selected by the Legislature of his State to occupy, for six years, the chair previously filled by the illustrious Clay, in the Senate of the United States. And he was in every way,! but one, fit to be the successor of Henry j Clay ; he lacked nothing but patriotism. He listened tathe seductive schemes of disuniomsts, and sacrificed a most brilliant future in an effort to destroy a Govern ment which he professed to love. While the friend of the Union he was the idol not only of Kentucky but of the Derac-: cratic party ; he was in truth I “The expectancy and the rose of the fur State The gla s of fashion and the imuld of form." But, in an evil hour, heabandoned his well known convictions, and lent his great name to strengthen the rebellion. He sacrificed himself for a cause his con science condemned ; he now lies in an an honored and premature grave, leaving be hind a young and poverty-stricken family. Breckinridge' 8 crime waa a grievous one,and grieviously has he answered for it. THE CAUSES OF THE REBELLION Wm. Smith O’Brien, the leader of the Irish revolt in 1857, has written a letter to General Meagher, in regard to our present troblss, in which he gives an ac count of some incidents of his visit to this country in 1855. This production has attracted the attention of the Commercial of this city, which papers sees in its rev elation the true causes of the rebel- j Hon. Before quoting a few paragraphs I from it, our ingenius neighbor idquires : “What were the true causes of this re bellion, The Copperhead journals have told us a thousand times, the election of President Lincoln. Hear their own champion in conversation with the rebels one year belqre Old Abe was even nomi* I nated for the Presidency, while the sage I of Wheatland rnled in the WhitA House. ’ ’ I We do not perceive the point of going] clear to Ireland to find out the causes of] oar civil strife ; there is no necessity for I snob a jburney, atid fiSiTH O’Brien being I in sympathy with the rebels, disqualifies | him from being an impartial witness. | We are Equally dull in oar endeavors to | penetrate the point ot the Commercial's I allusion to O'Bbien being some of our I ‘ qh&bpidn. ” We -never knew] him to be the champion of anything except | a very silly atfethpt dt 'rebellion, ih which I he aucceded in inflicting irreparable injury | upon a great many very indiscreet people. | Wendell Phillips and his set, who I have, according to his own testimony, been laboring to break np this Union for so years, is better authority on the sub ject of our troubles than Smith O'Bbien. We, therefore, advise the Commercial to accept bw testimony, The bloody teach ings of Abolitionism produced our present National troubles, and their continuance is likely to prevent these troubles from coming to a speedy termination. Aboli tionism declares that slavery was the cause of the war, and that, bonsequently, we can slavery is de:troyed This is now their programme, a fact, that appears, quite incomprehensible to Mr. Smith O’Brien Making, Fortunes off the War.

SOUTHERN NEWS! The Confederacy Mill Intact i From the Riehmond Jj&aminer. The Yankees have overran a large tract of territory, and have entrapped, by art fnl juggles ami cunning dissembling, some of the Border States into a seihblance ot onion. But the great force and power of resistance of the Confederacy is still in tact. Its armies are confident ahd defiant, and itß resources still amply sufficient, under proper management, to furnish all that, a people, earnestly struggling for in dependence, should consider as necessary. They, on the other hand, have accumu lated a debt which, even under the garbled statements of their own unscrupulous officials, no amount ot suppression can canse to appear less than enormous. For the first time, too, the appearance of actual, pinching want is making itself visible. Hitherto staved OB' by the prosperity of an artificial system, the necessary return to sober reality seems to be approaching. Debt, taxes and want will soon extend through all the ramifications of society, and the un reasoning crowd will have impressed upon them a conviction of the tearfully ex hausting drafts they have made upon their future resources. At that very time, 100, they will find, not only that their works is not half done, but that many of the evils foretold as inevitably consequent upon its termina tion, are already pressing upon them. The loss of liberty and the entire perversion of Bnch form of government upon which they founded such lofty boasts, would be, in their opinion, fully compensated by the restoration of that material prosperity which, under the Union, coexisted with the largest freedom. That the Southern States Bhould be reduced to provinces, and the balance of an equal Confederacy destroyed, would not cause them any rc pinings, if the Bame wealth could still be drawn from them in their changed con dition. The cherished gnarantees of in dividual liberty would be yielded with out a murmur for the boon of plentiful markets and abundant gains. This vulgar consolation will be denied them. When called on to pay the price of the success they have obtained they will find that all tbev have won has become worthless. Eveu now, in those Border States, where the work of conquest ib fa cilitated by the existence of a Y r ankee party, and by proximity to the central power, there are symptoms of that divi sion among themselves, and consequent disorganization which is destined, nj surely as disease follows debauch, to requite them some, at least, of the evils they have vis ited upon the South. The Btate of feeling in Maryland and Kentucky is not such as to give promise of a peaceful and prosperous future. "The benign influence of the Union” has re duced these States to the condition ol conquered provinces. Some few of the population have enriched themselves by paying court to the oppressors of their country. Some have received office and such honor aB may be supposed to re dound from service in the cause of r, tyrant Yet they, in time, will be oi,: aside contemptuously, after they have been used to the full extent to whicn they can be made available. Buch is ever the retribution which the contempt and policy of an alien conqueror inflicts upon those of his vassals whose treason is no longer serviceable. In Missouri where a large Abolitiou party existed previous tj the war, there is just a' present an appropriate exemplifi cation of the difficulties which will environ the Yankees in their attempts to carry on a Government, with the discordant appa ratus of a Republic, by the operation of >hcer force. The ultra radicals of that State are anxious to consummate their pur poses with the smallest possible delay, and to upturn the social fabric, regardless of consequences, which they have been shrewd enough to avert from themselves. The quarrel between this divisiou of Lin coin’s supporters and those who are still anxious to reconcile their own interest with a certain degree of conservatism has become very much embittered. Lincoln himself has sided with what is called the Conservative party, which fact may be taken as a forcible commentary upon its conservatism. The result must finally be the same as that of the many similar disputes which have arisen during the war. The Conservatives, real or pretended, will !„, dragged along by the impetuosity of the Radicals,‘yvhom the. progress of events inevitably assists, and who are appropriate exponents of the nature and genius of the war. The mode rate men, who funded that they could use the spirit of revolution to gain their own ends, and check it at the proper moo.eat, will be ignominiously spurned. Some will sink into the night of oblivion ; others, more snpple or enterprising, will keep their place in the van of the Abolition movement. Battles and Their Bean Its From the Richmond Examiner, Nov, 17. In contrasting the relative results of victories won npon this continent with those which, in Europe, are considered decisive, it should be borne in mind that the end to he attained by military opera tions is of so much greater importance here. The possession of an immense country is the stake in America. In Eu rope, a few towns or a petty province is fought, for, and, considered with relation loathe -purposes of the war, -a victory which gains a few square miles of territory is regarded as decisive. Here the independ ence ef a country is not staked on the issue of a single battle. No, victory, like that of Hastings, transfers the dominion of a people, nor, on the other hand, does a single Marathon turn back the tide of invasion. The structure and the resour ces of modern nations are too complex and abundant for such sudden decisions. A people determined to maintain its in dependence, is not crushed under the weight ot many defeats, nor if the obati naey of a nation, bent on conquest, and orrogaDt in its cbnfi ’ence, overcome until it has been repeatedly foiled. No parallel can be shown to a scheme of conquest like that ot the Yankees, per sisted in wheu the invaders have been uniformly defeated in every battle of mag nitude. The mere weight of numbers and advantages of ships have counter vailed, to some extent, their defeats in the field, and obtained for the enemy the possession of a considerable part of our territory. But, although our victories in the field have failed to avert these misfortunes, and have too often seemed productive of nothing but barren honor, ir is fair to estimate the disadvan tages which have, to some extent, neu tralized them, and, also, to consider what would havo been the penalty of defeat. The loss of the first battle of Manassas would have lost Richmond, and the loss of any sabsequnet battle by Lee’s army would have necessitated a retreat to Richmond and an abandonment of a large tract of country. Uhickamanga itself, though another battle must be fought to gain what we had sanguiuely hoped wou'd be its complete result, not only saved Northern Georgia, but, by the forced concentration of the enemy’s troops, has relieved other portions of the country. That Mobile is not besieged, or Texas invaded, is dne, in great measure to the defeat of Rosecrans. It is a weary pro cess to stand continually waiting, in order to repulse an enemy, who makes addi tional preparations and a fresh advance after each failure, yet it is, by no meaDs, devoid of result upon the war. The enemy will be forced to expose himself to the risk of more complete defeats ; and improve -ment and organization on our side will t lB to profit more, completely .by ln-future, battles will tend to>be mow .decisive,.

C., on the 24th. We make pome extracts from Gov. Vaoce’B Message : Reports are submitted herewith of the operations of the Ordnance, Subsistence and Quartermaster Departments, which I trust you will find satiijfactojy. The en terprise of running the blobade and im porting army supplies from abroad has proved;* complete success. You‘will see from the report that large quantities of clothing, leather and shoes, lubricating oils, factory findings, sheet-iron and tin, arms, ammunition, medicines, dye*stuffs, blankets, cotton bagging and rope, spirits, coffee, &c., have been safely Drought in, beside considerable freight for the Con federacy. Two thousand and teu bales of cotton have been Bent to Liverpool, the proceeds of which are deposited to the credit of the State, less the amount of expenses of the vessel. With what we have imported and the purchases in our home markets, I thick 1 can safely say that North Carolina troops will be comfortably clothed to January, 1865 should God, iu His Providence, bo long see fit to afflict us with a continuance of the war except as to Bhoes and blank ets, Neither the Ordnance nor Quarter master s Departments placed too much reliance on foreigu importation, but every effort has been made to stimulate home producLic-u. Both the quality and quantity of arms and munitions manutactured have been improved in the past twelve months. s know at last precisely what we would get by submission, and therein has our enemy done us good service—abolition ot .Slavery, cor,fiscalioD of property and territorial vassalage, these are the terms to win us back, Now, when our bleed and mothers and little ones cry for bread, we can poiut them back to the brick kilns of Kgypt—thanks to Mr. Seward —plainly in view, aod show them the beautiful clusters of Eschol which grow in the land of independence, whither we go to possess them- And we can remind them, too, how the pillar of tire and the cloud, the vouchsafed guidon of Jehovah, wont ever before the hungering multitude, leading away, with apparent cruelty, from the fullness of servitude. With such a prospect before them our people will, a 9 heretofore, come firmly up to the full measure of their duty if their trusted ser vants do not tail them. They will not crucily aireah their own sons, slain in their behalf, or put their gallant shades to open shame, by stopping short ot full and coDipiete uational independence. THE NEWS. Two very cunoua aud important cases had been tried in the English Divorce Court. 1 .ady Crumpton, nee Mies Victoire Balio, sued lv<r a divorce from her husbaod, Sirdoho K Crampton, late Minister of England in Washington, and'uow Minister Plenipotentiary of Great Britain in Hua eia, iiQU obtained a decree dissolving the marnate. li was necessary ihat Sir Charles Locock, with others of the most eminent obstetrical practitioners in Lon don. should be examined in support of Lady Cramr-lor's case. The second trial dissolved an American marriage celebra ted at \\ incL'-cit-r. Virginia, Detween the : Rev.

The Governor is also anthemed to raise complete companies of infantry for regi meats now in the field that have leas than their proper number o! company organi zations, bat there is no authority to con solidate regiments. Talk about underground railroads; leave the rebels alone lor that. John Moreau made one, and now we learn that seventy eight rebel prisoners escaped liom Camp Douglas (near Chicago) on Wednesday night, by digging a tunnel from the bar racks to an outside fence. Between tW6n!y and thirty of them were ro-taken up to ihursday evening. The New \ ork Post says that the New lork _Sub-Trsaaurer received on the ;-;d mat., $d,ixHj,(HKJ in legal-tender notes, by transfer, from Washington. Several trans tera also ol legal tender notes will proba bly soon follow from other oflacea ot the Department. The Heading Railroad Company an nounces a yearly dividend of seven per cent, payable in common slock, on and after December 1. A half yearly dividend ot three and a halt per cent, payable in cash or common stock, hai been declared on the preferred stock. It is said that financial agents had been sent ont from England lo the rebel Slates in order to negotiate a loan based on all the cotton in ihe actual poßsesßiou of the Davis government, and also to re arrange the first Anglo rebel cotton loan, so that the new promoters-may eDjoy its profits. Gen. Gilmore is still throwing shells into Charleston, at the rate of twenty a day. All ihe inhabitants had been moved to the ' rear 0 f the city. The firing on Sumter had ceased, General Gilmore turned his attention lo the other forts inside the har bor. General Butler, we are informed by tel egraph, is making money ,or the Govern ment in his Department. Ha ought- to do that, tor in New Orleans ho made money principally for himseli and brother. He is organizing negro cavalry, Spanish reports from Mexico state that the Jnarez Government was dissolving rapidly and that "when the French troops reach San Luis Potosi Juarez will cross nto Texas from Monterey. Official statistics show a mouh more fa vorable condition of onr foreign trade than has been generally supposed. The bal ance is largely in onr favor for each oi the three years ot the war. Secretary Chase ia said to be well pro* ▼idea with money; that is, he haa the aa* thorny of Congress to go eleven handaed millions of dollars farther in debt. This is considered money on hand! A French Bishop lecently alluded to crinoline in his sermon, admonishing hie hearers that the gates of Paradise were but narrow. “Did you know that I wss hero?” said the bellows to the fire, “0, yes ; I always contrive to get wind of you, ” was the reply, Meade may not bn superseded in the command of the Potomac Army, although Generals Hooker and Sedgwick are talked of aB his successors. It is thought the Potomac Army will fall back to the old ground at Centerville where water is convenient and snppliea are accessible.
