This may appear strange to some, but it is nevertheless true, and however incredible it may seem at the first glance, a slight investigation will prove that the fact is beyond contradiction. Another remarkable fea ture, which? will appear yet more strange, is that, as a general thing, the ladies are better judges of the present state of alfairs than we are, and they-as many - opportunities as we have to manifest their oplaions, ere long we would be relieved of any cloubt we may entertain in regard to this statement. Passing over all I questions concerning "delicate organization" &c., let us examine the simple facts, and we will had that not a few bf our eminent politicians do not disdain to consult their "better halves" on the most intricate affairs of state, and we would venture to state that those who have not as yet resorted to this plan would gain a great deal by the experiment. We ourselves have received some communications from ladles, and we are in a position to state that they always display an immense amount of sound judgment and critical pereeptiOn,in fact far mote than those who think themselves lords and masters of this earthly sphere would give them credit for. They are void of a great many Of_„etilr own prejudices, and judge of the state of 'Affairs by comparing the different accounts which they receive, and thereby come to a more correct conclusion than many of the rougher sex, who sometimes form a one-sided opinion of the whole concern. One of our lady friends, in speaking of what she observed at home, says: There was a big darkey in our house not long ago known as George the Fiddler, who told MC that he had a brother in the United States army who not long since wrote to him, stating that his "brethren of color" were treated worse in our army than the slaves on the Southern plan tations, and that although he did not openly declare that they would have revenge, he said what was equivalent to it." The lady then draws her conclusion and says; "So this is what the 'tlarkeys , are pondering over while they are in our army, and are getting well drilled for that purpose." We leave our readers to judge for themselves of the conclusion she draws from the above letter, but we must state that in this in stance, as well as in many others, she displays more sagacity than those who have had more experience iu political affairs would do in lika circumstances, for the very reason that few of tne latter would deem it possible for them to glean any important information from the letter of a negro soldier. We have received other communications from the wives and lady friends of soldiers, in which they make grievous complaints ot things winch du not often come to the ears of the public, but which they suffer none the less In the shade of their private homesteads. tine of these says: "I sent three papers to the army, but none of them reached their destination=two Pittsburgh Pons and one Uatholic paper." On this head she says: "flits is the way the Abolition party try to carry out their silicates, and for boar 'Little Mac' would be elected, they won't let a Democratic paper into the army lithey ant help it." We count give several other extracts which would convey much tarot mutton to the minds of our readers, but we have said enough on this head already. However, before; we fin ish we must draw one conclusion trona the above, which Is, that the belies interest 14111- w/es more in political affairs than we are in alined to think, and that they will bear a far more Influential part in public affairs in future tit in they have dole heretofore. Democratic Mass Meeting.—A meeting of the .Demoeraey was held last evening at ttw Market Square, Allegheny. An immense crowd of men from all parts of the county were pres ent, nearly an acre of ground was densely crowded, and the platform wan actually throng ed with distinguished gentlemen from this: and other States. The meeting was organized by the election of the following officers r PRUSIDIOVT—J. 0. STOOKDALE. VIOX PEEMMENTS—J. R. Hunter, Benjamin Crawford, Chailes A.. Winston, Henry Sproun, W. H. Magee, E. M.

Far leyy Mr. Stockdale made a few brief remarks on taking the chair, and subsequently introduced the tirst speaker Col Stephens, of New Hemp slifre, who addressed the meeting in a long a.id able speech in which he set forth in glowing col ors the policy of the present administration and theiejustice which he himself together with all the Democrats of his native State hare been obliged to surer-through Its partiality. To wards the close of his address a fine band of mu sic was beard in the distance advancing towards the s nageting, when the immense crowd rain d their voices and welcomed with cheers the Alb.- jtlieny McClellan Club which was coming to uin them. The Club turned out In toll 'circa and was followed by such an-immense crowd that one would think the entire Third Wait •'isiao to the census." The °Meets of the Clue ascended the stand while the btu.' made the night air echo Wet/I.ring and patriotic airs. As soon as the members of the ChM hail ta ken their places the President introduced Col. iticSwermy to the audience, who entertained them with a brilliant speech for Upwards of an hour. The air rang with cheers from the en thusiastic and appreciative audience during the whole length of his speech andwhen he finally at tempted to discontinue his address he was loud ly called upon to proceed. He staled t h at they had again assembled together 48 they were wont to do formerly, in order to examine tie co..duct of their rulers after their teen tea, nearly expired, so as to elect their successors. He examined the conduct of the present Admin istration, and inveighed in s4btig ter inn against the manner in which the Constitution was vio lated, taxes - increased, and 'hundreds of ibitu sa ads of oiliest s sent to tneir graves in cram'' to (inward the purposes of a party. After him several other gentlemen tdok the stand and entertained the audience till a late hour, when the meeting adjourned. Wheeler & Wilson's Sewing - chines —Fein persons are ware of Um eXten t of the business carried on In the selling of Wheeler & Wilson's Sewing Madill:3e In this of country. Truce years ago but three teams were required to deliver the Machines, while now tne business is such as to require some twenty teams, and so rapidly is it o:messing that'an additional force will soon be necessary to meet its requirements. Mr. Carpenter, of the that of 'Sumner & Co., Fifth -street, agent for this region, must certainly feel grandee at the favor and popularity these blaclunes are ac quiring. This is due, however, to the simplicity witirwhich they can be operated and the dura bility of the work they perform , making se they do the strongest - lock-stitch, ' which is said be the hest tor all Minds of sewing, and:la not li able to rip or ravel out it one stitch is broken, an objection which is often urgedapast Sew ing Alachinertvork. In'thircontindtr ag on, it is said that from fifty cents to one dollar and a half Is saved daily in the matter of sewing cotton by ' this stitch. We were present at the County Fair held in the borough of Washington rt. few days since, and among other.f eatures of interest we may mention a grand display of the Wheeler Se Wilson Machines, under the direction of Mr. J. T.Shaw, the ethelleot agent lerthat section of country. 'The eishibition of the working of these machines was witnessed by every one in attendance er....the;Fstr i pal the 'greatest !satis faction Was Manifested at the ease, rapidity and simplicity with w Mott they performed the work and OBV its durability.

Of course the latter were not a little astonished maiat finding suah documt among. thei ek men w r wely But we are of p in s on that the w ho resorted to this base means of forwarding. their ,sesigns and procuring votes for their candidates did not gain much by their violation of the laws which are observed in every country in regard to the malls. We may look arounillus in vain to find such inother example In the history of any country, but here men have finally come to this in order to propagate their doctrines' =long those who differ front them in political opiolon. It is an outrage which should be punished se verely, and we hope the people will not pass It over without a proper censure It reflects on all alike.

This is truly gratifying, and no one should fall to impart so ereat a pleasure to his friend. The girt is nei ther costly nor expensive, but it is auch that It pleases more than a keepsake of the most ex pensive kind, and when In possession of a good photograph, it seems that we are always In the company of him whom it represents. The com munity is thoroughly aware of this fact, and ac cordingly our moat popular artists In photogra ry have their establiahmenta sally thronged , with crowds of patrons. Witness that of B. L. H. Dabba in particular. This gentleman has a large number of accomplished artists who are constantly at work, and although it is beyond doubt the lam, at and tineat gallery in the city, they sometimes find it difficult to answer the numerous demands of the public. Everyone who has at any time patronized Mr. Dahl's is always sure to return again, tor the simple fact that he gives a superior article and Imparts such a finish and beauty to his work that it defies all compe tition.

NEW Yoax, October 3. The follow. ng is the Tribune's special account 01 the operations below Petersburg: "Yesterday, the 29th, General Gregg, supported by two brigades of infantry, pushed a reconnoissance from our left toward the Lynchburg Railroad, as near as Poplar lforing Church, beyond the Vaugh turnpike. No enemy in any force was discovered. To day General Griffin's division of the Fifth Corps ad vanced beyond the churcb, in a north west direction, on the enemy in a posi tion about two miles from the Weldon railroad. Their preparations for de fense, though not completed were very formidable. Gen.-Griflin decided to carry the works by assault, and formed his division in three lines of battle by brigade, the third brigade in advance, under Col. Gwin, of the 118th Pennsylvania. The assault was practically and brilliantly !successful The whole line was taken ! with two or three guns and about fid'ty prisoners. The other guns were drag. ged away. The rebels left their dead and wounded on the field. The prison ers belonged to Beauregard's command. Among them was one Major, one Cap. tain, and five Lieutenants.

On Friday three desperate efforts were made by the enemy to retake the works cap tured from them by us on Thursday. Gen. Lee in person was in command, but the rebels were each, time driven back with considerable loss. The enemy. were discovered about 2 o'clock in the afternoon massing in a woods directly opposite the point cap— tured yesterday, and in half an hour they charged with a wild yell in three heavy columns of attack. The rains at the same time opened upon our position and - our line was enfiladed by the fire from the rebel battery on the river. The men, however, stood steady to their posts, and received the rebels with so hot and well directed and unerring a lire, that they broke, in confusion and retired to the woods twice. Twice again they were rallied by their officers, and returned to the charge, but only with the same result, and finally, broken and dis pirited, they fell back in irremediable confusion, leaving the ground covered with their dead and Wounded. The prisoners represent that a thou sand, at least, were killed and,wounded. Over three hundred prisoners were taken by us, including many officers and the greater part of a North Carolina regi ment. Among those captured are sev eral field officers and Captain Maguire, Inspector General of General Clingman's staff. Three regimental flags were taken, all by Stannard's division. Two of them were captured by the 13th Con necticut and 18th Pennsylvania. The fight has been pronounced one of most desperate and brilliant of the war, and his skillful management of his troops General Weitzel has added one more lea to the laurels won in Louisiana Grading Advance on the Lynch burg Road.
