I need scarcely allude to the ungenerous i putation that "the Inspector of Hulls was a m t_ tending to his duties on Thursday dim emornin at a time unusually early for him." The eof tke idepection was at the special request of Mr. French. It is seldom we hear a man Marl ed for being early in the discharge of his duty. Capt.

Whether it be due to the chemicals employed n the operation or for the artistic coloring for whiah they are so extremely remarkable, It is not for us to determine, but it In certain that they' possess a clearness, an easy grace .and a most perfect conformity to nature such as it has been our lot rarely to behold.

Last night a last grand rally was held on the part of the Democracy previous to the October elections and according-. ly they turned out in ftill force both in this city and Allegheny. On both sides the meetings were immense, and the ,greatest enthusiasm was displayed throughout the entire proceedings. A large delation of the "young Democ. racy' of the Third Ward,carrying trans parencies,iroceeded in the earlier part of the eveningto join the meeting in Al legheny, and presented a splendid speci men of the rising Democratic genera tion. The meeting was held on the west side of the Allegheny Diamond, and was organized by the election of the fol lowing officers : VIZEJ3FDENT. J. 0. STOWMALE. VICE PILESIDEPTS. B. Means, Charles P.

Mr. Stockdale previous to taking the chair addressed a few words to the nu merous assemblage, and introduced Col. J. B. Sweitzer. The gallant Colonel would no doubt 'have delivered one of his usual stirring and characteristic speeches to the audience, but owing to the fact that the meeting was about to adjourn after a short time to join the grand mass meeting in Pittsburgh, he contented himself with saying only a few words, much to the disappointment of the audience, and gave way to Major Mahan, from Massachusetts. This gentleman made a long and able address, in which he gave a history of Gen. McClellan's campaigns, and animadverted severely upon the many Insults heaped on that generous patriot. After he had terminated his speech the meeting adjourned with three cheers for McClellan, and immediately directed their course to join the grand rally in Pittsburgh. Here the meeting was immense. Crowds of Democrats from all parts flocked to the appointed place at an ear ly hour, rendering the meeting not only one of the largest of the campaign but one of the largest meetings'ever held in Allegheny county, whether Democratic or Republican. The political clubs which were organized during the cam paign, made it their duty to attend, and added greatly to the importance of the meeting. The members of, the Keystane Me- UleUau Clubs of East Birmingiukni . , South Pittsburgh and Lower St. Cie.r turned out in full force, and in such numbers that two thousand and eight hard -fisted Democrats came froin those places alone. The Third Ward Mc- Clellan Club, which proved 'itself so ef ficient during the campaign, was also present, and superintended the proceed ings of the occasion. At about eight o'clock the meeting was called to order by James R. Hun ker, esq., and the names of the following gentlemen were read, who were unani mously elected officers of the meeting PAZBIIMPT.

This gentleman made a long and telling address, in which he gave a glaring account of the many us urpations committed by those in power on the most sacred rights, of,the people. His speech had a most telling effect on the audience, who interrupted him with frequent outbursts of applause.. After he had resumed his seat, Hon. J. it Car penter, of New York, took the istand, which he • occupied during a coizider ajile space of time, giving a review — of issues of the campaign, and showing forth thebrilliant hopes of the Demo cratiq party, which, beyond all, doubt, shall be realized. His speech was re 'reeived with the greatest enthusiasm, and a better illugmtion of the ability of this already popular orator coula:Ztotie giv en than by the cheen Of the audience, With which he was frequently greeted.

Here the multitude grer so large that it was found r impossible -th address them ell at once, for which reaSon. stand No. 2 which had been erected l to answer any suehhecessity, was occupied by some of our brilliant and favorite Democratic speakers, such as Hon. H. L. Johnson, of Maasachusetts, Wm. J. McGinn, A. Stevenson and others. Hitn. E. A. Hib bard, who has already, rehdered himself such a popular speaker, 'wide one of his usual forcible speeches which elicited the applause of the entire audience. Capt. J. P. Westcott was next introdu ced. He , gave a scathing review of the usurpation, imbecility and injustice of the present administratiati. He spoke feelingly of what we may expect in case of Abraham Lincoln's relelection, and made a brilliant comparion between that and the future prospe r i ty and hap piness of the country under , the admin istration of Geo. B. .McCleilan. Here the newly organizedlglee dub of the Seventh Ward was introduced, and some of the members delivered in fine style, one of their patriotic songs, pre pared expressly for the occasion. J. H. Hopkins, the preseht candidate for Congress then took the stand, and after congratulating the meeting on their numbers, commenced a brilliant oration, in which he appealed to the lovers of Union and Liberty to consider the present manner in which the Constitu tion is violated, and the most sacred rights of American freemen ; are set at naught, in fact that which rendered Amelica the greatest nation in the world, and which made every Ameri. can feel proud of his country, had been trampled under foot. '' - • He caned upon them to avenge , them• selves of the many injuries r hich they had to undergo underAbraharn Lincoln, and - elect a just, upright and conscien tious man in his stead. The meeting at this juncture grew larger and larger, so that it was found necessary to erect another temporary stand, front which to address the immense crowd. 1 Mr. Tal madge, of New York, was the first to speak r and was followed by Hun: R. P. Flenniken and others. On stand No. 1 Major Mahan, who had already made another address to the meeting held in Allegheny, refuted with ability the many slanders heaped on the name of McClellan, and the false reports which have been spread abroad by his ene mies, concerning the battle oti Malvern Col. J. B. Bweitzer was 9.0 last to address the audience, and his speech was such that he commanded the whole attention of the audience. 7e Dire a brief sketch of Gen. McClellan's cam— paigns. under whom he had sewed, and of whose abilities he was, therefore, an experienced judge. As soon aa','the Col onel had terminated his speech, which was received with the most entbusiastic demonstrations of applause, the !meeting adjourned. It was nearly' twelve o'clock when the immense crowd com— menced to separate, and quietly proceed ed to their homes. We have essayed to give a brief pit line of the principle features of this im portant meeting, but we are sorry to say that the description falls short of the or iginal. The music, the banners, the platform ornamented with flags, por traits, and Chinese lamps, presented a spectacle better imagined than descnb. ed. The meeting was the largest of the kind ever held in Pittsburgh, and the display of enthusiasm never before wit nessed will doubtless have a vast. effect on the issue of the campaign. • IplY7lll ANTHONY.; /1131Y118 JOSEPH MEYER & SON, MANDFACTUBERS OF PLAIN AND irA.Npir FURNITURE AND CHAIRS WAR RHOLTSE, 53 SATTTHFIELD, AND 441 PENN Sts Between 6th at., and Virgin at Je2 N.

STRASBURG, Va., 0ct..9, midnight Lt. Gen. Grant, City Point: In coming back to this place I was not followed up until late yesterday, when a large force , of cavalry appeared in my rear. I then halted my command to offer battle bY* attacking the enemy. I became satis fied that it was only all rebel cavalry of the valley conimandediky Rosser, so I. directed Torbett to attack at dayligh t this morning and finish this- savior of the valley. The„attack was handsome ly made, Qatar commanding the third, cavalry divisipn, charged on, - the back roan, and kerrittcorainandin g first cav alry division, on the Strasburg pike. Merritt captured five pieces of artillery. Custer captured -As pieces of artillery with caissons, battery forge, Ate.- The two divisions captured 47 negroes, am bulances, ALMong the wagons .cip. tared are the -headquarter wagons of Rosser, Lomax, Wickman, , and Colonel Poward. The number of prisoners is about 330. The enemy, after being charged by our gallant cavalry, were broken and ran. They wizre followed by our men on the jump twenty six miles, through Mount Jackson and across the north. fork of the Shenandoah. I deemed it beat to make this delay of one day here and i3ettle this new caval ry general. Eleven pieces of artillery captured today make thirty-six pieces capturedin the Shenandoah valley since . the 19th of September. Some of the ar- ti ery was new and had never been fir ed.
