THE MFTIMM jGtmRM l "1 1 I if 41 J laftsman's journal: JT SAMCEL J. BOW. CXEAKFIELO. PA.j OCT. 14. 1863. THS "WAR SEWS. Tbe newt from tbo army of the Potomac U exciting. For several days past a movement baa been going oa In the Rebel Army which can ed considerable anxiety. Early on Sat urday morning oce of Gen. Kilpat.-ick'a cav alry brigades attempted a re-connoistance on tbe aoutb side of Robertson's River, when they were met by a large body of Stuart'a Cavalry. After fighting an hour Killpatrick was obliged to fall back upon our Inf.intry re serves. Another severe contest ensued when the infantry was also obliged to give way losing a considerable number of prisoners. A detachment of our Cavalry then made a gal lant dasb at the enemy and recaptured all bat 15 or 20 of our lost men. The whole of our force, fiowever was pushed back towards Culpepper, contesting every foot of the ground. Heavy Bring was heard in the after noon, indicating that tbe contest had been re sumed. It is believed that the Rebels have been changing their line, with a view to mak ing a demonstration upon our right rear and cut ofl our railroad communication. It is aid that Gen. lleade is fully prepared fur any movement, and ready to receive them at any point. they may choose to attack. Thi Nashville Press denies the burning of the bridge by tbe rebels, over Stewart's Creek. It says that Wheeler crossed the river atWash !ngton,last Thursday morning, 13 miles above Chattanooga, and passed down the Sequatchie Valley. Tee rebels captured 60 wagons of one of oar trains at the foot of the moun tains near Anderson's Cross Roads, burning a number of them, and killing about 300 horses and mules. The train was loaded with ammu nition, clothing, and ration. 'Forty of tbe wagons were carry; ng medical and sanitary stores. About fifty sutler's teams were also lost. Gen. Mitchell with the Union cavalry, as soon as he learned of the crossing of the rebels, pursued them, and on Friday and Sat urday killed and wounded 70 Rebels, took 200 prisoners and recaptnred 250 mule. 'On reaching Walnut range tbe rebels shot 200 mules to prevent their falling into onr hands. A more definite dispatch concerning the at tack on Gen. Blunt and bis escort below Fort Scott is received from Leavenworth. He was attacked by 300 Rebels in Union uniform near the encampment of Lieut- Pond. II is escort broke, and ont of 100 men 78 were killed all shot through the head, evidently after they were captured. Gen. Blunt escaped, and, meeting re-enforcements, took command of them and started in pnrsuit. Gen. Schotield telegraphed to Leavenworth that from 1.000 to 8,000 Rebels, coder Qu&ntrell, Curiae, Gor don and Uunter, were marching on Fort Scott, and that he had ordered Culnel Wier to move all tbe furce Le could raise to the lat ter place. Lient. Commander Dobson, of tbe United States gunboat' Seneca, reported to the Navy Department under date, Dobay Sound, Septem ber 24tb, that on the night of the 22d- ult. he sent an armed boat crew up the Altamaha riv er, and destroyed the Hudson Place Sail Works, near Darien.Ga., entirely demolishing boilers, engines and woiks of James II. Lock wood. Tbe superintendent, It is two children, a force of negroes and other employees and two visitors, fled at the approach of our force. Tbe works are situated within two miles from the encampment of the rebels, and whose pickets came very near tbe works, but they did not discover or resist an attack. One of the prisoners states tfeat they have a report to tbe effect that we are raising 100.000 cavalrymen, and adds.it this is so tbo Confed eracy is gone np. New YoRK.Ocr.8 Intelligence from Mar tinaburg is to the effect that there are no reb els in the Shenandoah Valley, except a few guerrillas skulking in the mountains. Our cavalry have scoured the Valley as far as Stras burg and Front Royal, without flndi ig spy traces of rebels. Information has also been received that there is no movement on the . part of the enemy's cavalry towards Western Virginia, as reported a few lava slnco. EEVSLATI053 OF A REBEL MAIL-BAO Among tbe captures by our troops at Cum berland Gap, was a large rebel mail bag, the contents of which have afiorded both amuse ment and instruction to those who have ex mined them. Among other things, the let ters confirmed beyond all question that the Georgia troops are aa dissatisfied as any in tbe Confederate service. Out of the large number of Georgia letters in the mall, but two placed any confidence whatever in the rebel cause.; One gentleman wrote home for bis wife not to sell his two pigs for Confederate money, as it was entirely worthless. Another ays : "if this wir aint closed soon, there wilj be no men left. We can't fight a worldiul of men ; tbe Sout.a can't stand it much longer --our men are all deserting." Another ia more explicit : "I have never seen men ao out of heart. You had better set your house in order, for by Christmas we shall be back in tbe Union. If peace don't come soon.we wfll II desert." This is tbe spirit -displayed in U, or nearly all these Jotters a spirit of ot ter despair for the rebel cause, and a willing oess to take tbe Union on any terms, so ft rings peso THE ELECTION ! THE RESULT IN CLEARFIELD. -Below we give returns of tbe election in this county as far as beard from up to the time of our going to press. If the districts not in, give a proportionate vote, tbe Copperhead ma jority will be about 930. This i loss than tbe leaders of that party claimed, and when all things are taken into consideration, is as favorable a result for the Union cause a? could reasonably have been expected. A more vir ulent canvass never was made of this county. Falsehood and misrepresentation of the gros sest character were indulged in by the Cop perhead organ and oratorG the Government was assailed in the most outrageous manner the President denounced as a de.'pot and ty rant the fears of the timid and the prejudices of the ignorant were appealed to by brow beating and whisky not a few were induced to vote tbe Woodward ticket, acd at least two deserters were slipped through back alleys to and from the polls to swell their vote. Having a majority on the election Boards in many of the Districts, the Copperheads had things pretty much their own way. Mr. Twist and five others, (Union men) not withstand ing the fact that they had been twice enroll ed In Knox township, (the latter claiming them as Iter's.) were, not allowed to vote be cause some slimy creature made oath that they were living in Boggs. On the other hand, in this Borough, a supporter of Woodward was permitted to vote after be hsd stated, on oath, that he was a married man and that bis wife resided in Snider county whilst theLaw rence township Board, giving ear to a fellow stupid with liquor, who read only a portion of the 44th section of the election hws, for a lung time hesitated about taking tbu votes ot two men who were qualified that they were residents of the district and had paid taxes within the time prescribed by the Act. These are well-known facts which cannot be truth fully contradicted, and will give persons a broad an idea of how the contest was carried on, and the election conducted by the Copper heads in Clearfield county. 9 3 r o S 5 o a- Districts.

Thomas a sp tended Bworc., as a token of their appre ciation of him as a man and an officer. Tbe sword has already been fowarded to Tennes see. The scabbard is of solid silver, heavily plated with gold, and very richly ornament ed. The General's initials are set in the hilt in diamonds. The following ia the insription upon the scabbard : "Persented to Major General George H. Thomas, by the enlisted men of the Fourth Rentncky Regular Volun teer Infantry ;" and on the blade, which is of the finest steel, and perfectly tempered, is this inscription : "Mill Springs, Kentucky, January 19. 1862. the first victory won by the Union Army." No man is more worthy of such a tuark of esteem than Gen. Thomas. " ACi'Bi'cs Svit.

The roost frigbtlul occurrence iu many years took place in Nevada Territory, reeen:ly,and is thus related by tbe Territorial Enterprise : Among thj- employees of Mr. Russell, the tnilltnan at Austin, wan an emigrant named Cornell, a peaceful, quiet person, aud very well liked by such as knew him. For the past three weeks be bad shown symptoms of insan ity, and, although these were not of a nature to excite much attention, it was deemed best to deaf with liiiu with caution. He went to bed cn Saturday night last about eight orcl-ck, and about ten o'clock his tent mate followed his example. Fearful of exciting Cornell if he entered his tout abruptly, the man first a wakened bim, by calling him softly by name; he then drew aside the curtain and was in the act of stepping in, when Cornell struck him a blow with ao axe, which cut his none and forehead badly, and almost lelled bim to the ground. Recovering in a moment, however, he ran for his life, and Cornell alter him ; but the latter stumbled over aTope and fell, and the accident enabled his victim to escape. The madman ran down into the midst ot the town, entered a crowded saloon, and began to lay about bim with bis axe, bestowing blows on any that came in hW way. The first cut a man's arm badly ; the second severed anoiher's hand from the wrist ; the third inflicted a wound upon a bystander's head; also smashing the chandelier, shroud ing the saloon in total darkness in a moment. The invisible scene that ensued was of the wildest description. The crowd broke with one impulse toward the door, making chaos of chairs, tables, and i-vcry thing that was sus ceptible of being dismembered, and were met there by another crowd, attracted to the spot by the shrieks and shouts of the wounded, who appeared as anxious to get into the sa loon as their brethren were to g-et out. Some body in the saloon, in the hope of dispersing the new comers by the wholesome fear of fire arms, discharged a pistol, which had the effect of increasing the panic at least. But, iu the meantime, the crazy man had escaped. . As the news spread 'abroad, the citizens, by common .consent, took shelter behind bolted doors, and awaited the coining ol t hedeatroy er with whatever of comfort the circumstan ces permitted. After a while a man came running from the direction of Clinton, with a ghastly wound in the side of his head, which had almost taken off one of his ears. He on ly begged for water, and was too much stun ned io answer questions intelligently. When somewhat recovered, he said that, as he was coming from Clinton, a man came running up, struck him with an axe, and continued his flight without slopping. The man, wose name Mr. Frankenthral had forgotten, will probably recover. A posse of citizens, arm ed with revolvers, started at once in pursuit, but they were too late. Cornell had slaught ered three foot passengers already between Austin and Clinton. Nothing more was seen of him till early the next morning, when bis body was found alout ball a mile beyond the village, with his throat cut frpm ear to ear in tact, the head was sev ered Irom the body, the wind pipe was cut in two, the back of the head crushed in, and a bout the heart were five stabs, either one of wbicb was, perhaps, sufficient to eause death. Incident on the Battle Field. One u.ty not long since, among ttie relics ot the dread ful fight at Gettysburg, there was picked up by a soldier, and presented to a lady acquain tance, a small paper, which contained' two seperate locks of hair attached thereto di rected to Mr. Wellerford, from Lousiana, by his wife, in beautiful handwriting. Below one lock was Enny Wellerford. ImIow the other Richard Wellerford, and below both 'Our darlingt I" These tender mementoes of his home and children bad been sunt to cheer his heart in the far distant land to which the fortunes of war had brought bini ; and probably he wore tbe tender testimon ials near his heart when the fntal missile of deal!; seperated bim from those he loved in his far off Southern home. Strangers now possess the tender relic, and he rests beneath the c'ods of a Northern valley, his grave propably unmarked and undistinguished from hundreds around him who met their death on the bloody field of Gettysburg, and wife and children for look in vain tbe return of tbe loved husband and father. A Co ip prom the Old Block. A son of "Old Ben Wade," nineteen years of age, and in the army of the Potomac, was sent some weeks since as bearer of dispatches to Gen. Buford. He rode all night, and in the morn ing a squad of Moseby's cavalry came upon bis track, and six of them with fresh horses pursued him. One of them having the fleet eat horse outstripped the rest in the chase un der the ambition of having the glory of his capture. Arriving within striking distance, be halted young Wade, but not being honored in the challenge, tbe rebel fired five or six times at him, when getting near enough, young Wade whirled abont, shot the rel el through the head, leaped from bis own jaded horse, mounted that ef the fallen ioe, and bore on in triumph with his dispatches. We have some particulars of Gen. Sully's expedition iip the Missouri, against the Indi ans.and the fight atWbite Stone Hills. After three days' fighting S00 Indians were killed, and a Urge number wounded, when the re mainder fled, leaving everything they possess ed behind, even tbeir squaw and children. The Indians fought like demons, but the steady fire of our troops was too much for toeru. . , The Nashville Union says that although greenbacks have not yet obtained a general circulation in East Tennessee, and the people refuse Confederate enrrency, and the Georgia and South Carolina money, ef which there is much in circulation, has gone down to twenty five and filty cents on tbe dollar. The prices of all kinds of goods tav dropped proportionately. ENCOURAGING NEWS FS0H CHATTA-N00GA- Defeat of tbe Rebel Cavalry near Shell!) jvillc. ' Washington. Oct. 10. The Republican extra says the Government has received dispatches from Gen. Rosecrans dated Chattanooga, Oct. 9, (yesterday,) and from other officers on duty at his headquar ters ; also, dispatches from Nashvil!e,all con taining reports most encouraging for the Na tional cause. The forces under Gen Mitchell overtook the re Ik I cavalry on the Gth inst., below ShelU.y villeaud a battle immediately ensued, result ing in a complete rout i t the enemy,' who did j not stop for his wounded. Over one hundred of the enemy were left on the field aud also a large number of wounded. General Mitchell sent a force after the fly ing rebels, who scattered panic stricken, that teing tho only means of escaping the great military ccrdon established by General Rose crans. The railroads torn tip by the raiders have been repaired, and the telegraph communica tion is re establinhed. The sacking ot Shell byville was as cowardly and disgraceful to the rebel arms as was that of Lawrence by rebel Quantrell. We had neither torces nor stores there, beyond those of the inhabitants, many of them secessionists, and they weie robbed and their house burned. They were without protection, hence the disgrace to the Confederates, who made such an utiuiilitary onslaught upon the place. Braggs' bombardment of Chattanooga was a complete failure, so far as any damage what ever being done to the defences or to our gal lant army. A few women and children were frightened and a few dwellings burned. A FIGHT NEAE FEANKLIN. Louisville, Ky., October 9. General Crook, coiniiiaiidi'ii; a brigade of cavalry, twelve miles beyond Franklin, eNter daj afternoon, came up with a portion of Wharton's rebel cavalry. A sharp lighten sued, resulting in 12-3 rebels being killed and wounded and 300 prisoners and 4 cannon cap tured. The rebels were ia full retreat and our forces pursuing. No casualties o the Feder als aro repotted. The telegraph to Chattan ooga has been working since yestt-rday, and the railroad will be iu running order to Bridge port to-morrow. With the exception of Dick M'Cann and 30 of his men, all the rebel prisoners are confined in Louisville. EXECUTION OF TH2.EE KVEDE2EES. Coli-mbls. Ky , Oct. 9. Three negroes concerned in the niurdir of the Becknian family were hung to day. De tachments of the Hth atd lth regirneiits col ored troops witnessed the execution. Three others indirectly connected with the murder, were sentenced to imprisonment for rive years and one for one year. The three were sent to Nashville under guard to-day. The arrival of a Russian squadron in Amer ican waters reminds us of tho condition of the Russian navy. The Baltic nVet consists ot sixty four vessels, sail and steam, mounting a bout twelve hundred guns; the hVet station ed in the Armor contains twenty seven vessels, mounting together aboii'. one hundred and fifty guns ; the White Sea fleet consists of Bve Kteamers. carrying about thirty gun.- ; the fleet in the Caspian, live vessels, with fit ty-two guns ; the force on the Lake of Aral contains two steamer. ith but small arma ments. Total, one hundred and forty-live vessels, with about sixteen hundred and thir ty guns. Kxchangt. Immigration at the Port of Nkw York. Thj New York Tribune, of Tuesday, sys : Th immigration ;it this point n!on tor the year 18f3, up to d tte.'ls computed at ltj0,0")0, whilrt that for 1S02, dtning a corresponding period, was 76.0'JJ, miking an increase of 81. 000, or 8.000 more ti.an the entire total for lu.stye.tr. Between the 1st and SOt'a ultimo of the present year, 1 1 ,384 i -migrant s airived in this cit.v, in twenty-nine .sailir.- vessels and seventeen steamers. Of thes.e 10,781 were bondable passenger", and 513 were not bon dable. During the sa.ne month last year, 8, 462 emigrants arrived in forty three sailing vessels and nine steamers. The arrivals on Friday and Saturday numbered 2.659 person?.. Fortunate Discover. An English lady was recently walk ing through the streets of Sydney, Australia, when she di.-covered in a jeweller's window a necklace which she recou ped as one stoled from her in England two years before. She Entered the store; and seizing the necklace touched a secret spring, and beheld two curls belonging to her deceas ed children. She claimed the prize and the jeweler gave it up, asking as a favor that she would not mention it but she did, amf led to the discovery that for many years the thieves of Paris and London have been in the habit of sending their stolen goods to Australia. Mast. reLels, in order to secure the value ot their slaves property, have quietly seut their chatties to Cuba ; but this deruiet resort bas failed them, as, through the instrumental ity of Mr. Sivage, our able Consul, many of these slaves have been set free. It is a law of Spain that any slave brought from the con tinent or adjoining tales becomes free the moment he touches the soil of Cuba. It ia the same in the case of a siave being taken from Cuba to Spain, notwithttanding the Colo Dial relations. Antipodal. In Australia it is summer in January and winter in July. It is noon there when it is midnight in Europe. The long est day U in December. Th heat comes from the North, the cold from the South, and is hottest on the mountain tops. The swans are black, the eagles are white ; the bees do not sting and the birds do not sing. Thecberries have no stones , the trees give- no shadow, for their leaves turn edgeways to the sun, and some ef its quadrupeds hare a beak "and !iy eggs. A Good Word for the Skcnk. The ,1meri. can jlgricullurist says of the aknnk : "All summer. long he roatus your pastures at night, pickirg tip beetles and grubs, poking with his nose in potato hills where many worms are at work. He is alter the grubs, not the tubers. He takes possession of the apartment of the woodohuek, who has quartered himself and fans i !r nt-on your clover field or eardens, and makes short work with all the domestic ar- rarie.-nieiils of that unmitigated nniamce. ...... . With this white-backed sentinel around, yon can raise clover in peace, and the youns turn- ips will flotiri ish. Your beans will not be pre - tna:urely snapped, and your guden sauce will free from other vermin. The mot car- less observation t his habits shows that hoi lives almost exclusively upon insects. While you sleep he is busy doing your work, help ing to destroy your enemies. In any fair ac- count kept with bim, the balance must bei struck in his favor. Thus wo often find friends under the most unpromising appear ances, and badly abused men are oot unfre quently the benefactors of society." Bu t then Call him by any name you will, A polecat is a polecat still. A CcRiors Theokt of niK Dckation or tub War Tbe Rev. John Gilbert, ot Clay county, Keutucky, writes to a frien.lin Frank- fort, giving a curious theory with regard to tbe duration of the present war. In his let ter he siys : During tiie Revolutionary War corn blades bad ti-vfii points to them, that is, the blade grew in such a manner as to have seven dis tinct points or ends corresponding with the sharu tioint Ol the blari.
