GitIISIP WITH OtatFRIENDg.—We are on
,tainted by politics. We were. never proposed
for an 'office, never served in anY official 'ca
pacity, and never expect to. We have even
a holy horror of a politician, particularly an
unsuccessfulrone; and in the present instance
- wash bur hands of any intention to meddle
out of our sphere. Nothing but outraged
huManity could bring us out, and outraged
humanity has brought Its out. Listen to our

BRIEF WAR
The Rebels acknowledge• a loss of twelve
thousand men, killed, wounded and missing
at Chiclearning& -
Bob ToOtilbs ,of Georgia says he prefers -
death on the battle •field to union with the
North on any terms whatever. Let Min: take
his choice by all 'means.
'The reeruitirig 'officers in New Jersey now
take a photograph of each mah as. he is en
listed. The plan brings horrible contortions
upon the countenances ofbounty.jumpers.
• It is a singular coincidence that the Indian
name of the river near which den.' Itoseertms
fought his last terrible and bloody battle, that
of Chickamauga, •m• ans "the Stream of
Death."
Jeff. Davis offers to release all the convicts
in the Southern prisons if they will agree to,
join the rebel army. It is entirely proper
that ,convicted_ murderers, thieves;
,and all
manner of desperadoes and mitlaws should
be placed on 'an equality with the Worse than
criminal traitors and outlaws who have taken
up arms against the Republic. •
Gen. Hooker and staff arrived at Cincin
nati, on the 29th ult. The General, in a feiv
r unarks',. said that he was going to speak to
the rebellion through the thunder tones of
artillery and musketry. Gen. Butterfield
also said that they were going to the front to
fight treitm, and they wanted all loyal,citi
v.ens to take care of traitors in the rear of the
army.
Gens. McCook , and Crittenden are relieved
of their commands, arad ordered to report at
Indianapolis.. The 20th and:2lst Army
Corps, formerly under , these Generals, are
consolidated, called the 4th Army Corps; and
placed. under command of> Gen. Gordon
Granger... ,A 'Court of Inquiry is to inquire
into the conduct of the - deposed Generals at
the battle of Chickamauga.
Aletter from Nahaville, dated the 27th of.
September, says:— ,, Since last Thursday rein
forcements have been pouring down to Chat
tanooga, and on that day some tire* and
tbirty4onntier Parrott guns, lying here tin,
used since Nashville fell, Were forwarded.
he firma troops which have . passed through
the city were the Fifteenth 'Regulars. They
marched like maclinery and stood firm and
erect as 'statutes." It is tated that Gen. Pope
is to have a command in the Ariny of the .
CuMberland.

Governor Brown is not satisfied with 'the •
manner in which Jeff. Davis' agents in Geor
gia impress private :property for the use ief
the Rebel Government. • Ro• has therefore
' issued a proclamation, in which he announ
ces, that while he does not, intend to ember
-, ras ,the• Government, -he "will, protect the
people against outrages," and all the_ State,
civil and military authorities are directed .te
assist persons in defending their property

GREAT minds often, utter the same senti
ments, although ;thousands of miles apart
and as widely different• in their situations.
Thus the Richmond. Enquirer, the rebel or
gan of Jeff. Davis, and Judge "Woodward,.
the Democratic candidate for Governor; al
though separated by iostile lines, almost
simultaneously utter the same sentiments in
behalf of the cause of armed traitors. Here
they are : _
- "The success of the Democratic patty
would be no longer doubtful, should Gen.
Lee once more advance on Meade. Let him
drive Meade into Washington and he will
again raise the spirits of the Democrats, con
firtn their timid and give confidence to their
wavering."—Richmond Enquirer.
" Ke must arouse ourselves, and reassert
the rights of the sterveholders, and add such
guaranties to our COnstitution as will protect
his property from the spoliation btreligious
bigotry or persecution, or else we must give
up our Constitutiini and Union.",—George.W.
Woodward.
