vagance. Whoever ends the year out of debt,,
will end it out of trouble. For ourselves, we
earnestly desire to owe no man anything but
good will, and should be glad to have our
friends adopt this rule towards us. If that

HISRALD, advertising and job work, would

would enable us to accomplish our wishes in
the way of meeting obligations, necessarily
incurred in the prosecution of our business.
A SERIOUS BLOW
-- We have from the - first regarded the des
truction Of the bridges by the Union men of
Eastern Tennessee, as a not less serious bloW
to the rebel cause than the capture of Port
Royal, and calculated to '•embarrass" them
to a greater extent. The wail that 'comes to
to from the rebel press of Tennessee and other
southern States, shows hoiv great a calatnity
they boulder the inevement. Anticipating
the possibility of such an occurrence, the
Memphis Appeal remarked :
"The consummation of this end alone—
which_ is a natural sequence to the result we
mention—is worth tin immense sacrifice on
the part of the enemy, and the advantage to
be expected by him front its success, we be
lieve, is to-day fully appreciated. If our only
line of direct Intercourse with the National
Capital can be thus interrupted, an immediate
result will be effeetld, the most beneficial to
the Lineoln Goveruniont, indeed, of any stra
tegetic move made by it sines the war."
We also find copied into city exchanges - the
following from the Richmond Examiner:
The breaking up of that line of railroad
romniunication to the West and South is not to
be permitted or hazarded for on instant.
And from the Richmond "'watch: .
"The Government cannot ntford to permit
the great line of railroad running through the
country thus threatened to be one moment im
perilled. It cannot afford to lose the support
of the brave and liberal people of Smith -West
ern Virginia, where, as yet, not a single trai
tor had been found. It cannot afford to admit
as army of the enemy into close proximity
with East Tennessee, where Brownlow and
Andy Johnson have made so many Unionists
among a community the most prolific of good
Soldiers on the Continent."
PROGRESS OF THE ♦VAR
Advices from Missouri say that the rebel
army, some 16,000 strong, since the evacua
tion orspringfield, was moving in three divi
sions. The right wing, 6000 strong, under
Mcßride, is resting at Stockton.• The left,
under Rains, 4QOO men, rested near Nevada,
sad the centre, under Price, 6000 men, was
at or near Monteville. I'rice intended to
march into Kansas and operate there. Gene
ral Lane was 'at Fort Scott, with 5000 men,
but Price intended to evade him. McCullough
had been ordered to follow Price, hut refused,
and was going into winter quarters in Arkan-

were anchored off rho town, which was visited
daily by our officers.
The Fifty seventh and Sixty-firth New York

however, that the application was now made

OUR MILITAILY SYSTEM
We find the subjoined paragraph in the Boa
ton Post: .
" Ono of the aids of Prinee Napoleon has
published a succinct account of the organiza
tion of the Federal army. lie thinks that its
composition is analagous to that of the French
army, and - says that it is an attempt to do in
a few weeks what has required seventy years
in France."
This is true enough as far as, it goes, but
those who take such a summary criticism as
settling the fact that we are likely to fail in
this attempt at our army organization will
find themselves mikaken. The admirable die
oipline and organization of the French army
are the results of seventy years Constant la
bor, as the writer truly says. The details and
principles were gathered up in many a weary
campaign, amid the victories and defeats, long
marches, privations and sufferings almost in
credible. But being settled, they are now as
well known in all the military schools of the
world as they are in France. It is not neces
sary to wade through an experience as tedious
and perilous as that of France to arrive at the
same result. Nliiitaryscience has become per•
featly arranged and systematized, and the prin
ciples are accessible to all. Moreover, the sin
gular aptitude for war evinced by our country
men in the present crisis has developed itself
quite as much in the rapid progress of organ
ization and discipline as in the manufacture
of arms and munitions, and theraising of men;
and whiii great stress was laitl by foreign
writers upon our army being composed entire
ly of raw recruits, and without competent in
structors, yet it has nevertheless made aston
ishing advancement,.
In the begining of the contest we said that
our country was destined in this war to exhib
it an unprecedented spectacle of military de
velopment. Already this is recognized, and
notwithstanding the obstacles which the French
writer quoted supposes to be fatal to our pur
poses, he will soon see them vanish. The
French system has al ways been thoroughly un
derstood by the-leading minds in the United
States army, and it has been for years accept
ed as the model for stir organization. We are
now applying upon a grand scale what we had
previously practiced in miniature. Our main
trouble thus far has been in the fact that the
officers of our general staff have never been
educated as such, nor specially set apart for
the exelusive•performanee of these duties, as
is the ease in the French system. p9int
has occupied the earnest attention of our best
American writers on triilitary. science. .
We frankly admit that to accomplish such a
gigantic work some great military minds are
requisite in the direction. In the outset we
were without these, but McClellan, Ilalleck,
and their compatriots of the regular service,
have at length obtained the requisite iniluoncei
and the results are visible. McClellan has
made the army of the Potomac so entirely dif
ferent from what it was as to elicit commen
dation even from the London Times. In this
he has been admirably aided by Generals Mc-
Dowell, Andrew Porter, Buell, Heintzlemma,
Franklin, McCall, Fitz John Porter. Of these,
Gen. Buell has since been sent to'command in
Kentucky, where his experience near Wash
ington will be useful in bringing into a state
of efficiency the rather loose organization of
the army. His place in the army of the Po
tomac has been filled by General Sumner,
from California. General Wool has to a re
markal•le extent recenstructed the army of
Fortress Monroe and vicinity, applying there
those rules of the regular service which were
not recognized by volunteer officers.
' Whatever objections may be urged to Freniont's
management in Miss Cirri, there can be no
doubt that he infused into the army there
thorough discipline and great strietnese of or
ganization. General Sherman, who commands
at Port Royal, is a regular officer of high rep
utation. General Burnside, who is to com
mand a now expedition, is also au officer reg
ularly trained, and of considerable experience.
in the rapid promotion of McClellan, Hal
lock, McDowell, Stoneman and Sherman, the
War Department hae inaugurated the policy
of bringing forward the younger generation of
of regular officers, who during the long peace
had become discouraged by their slow prog•
'Tess, and many of whom had therefore re
signed, to seek out better fortunes in private
life. This was the case with McClellan, Ro
sonorous, lialleck, Burnside, and. many otli
ere. These men now come into position,'
bringing with them a new set of ideas; to which
the army has been closed. We do not now
seek to cast reflection upon the older officers
of the army, for we have great reason to bo
proud of Scott, Wool and Harney ; but after'
having-been so long accustomed to deal-only
with klimited force, their minds Could with
diffioulty be adjusted to labors entirely now to
theta. Tho ambition and readiness of the
young officere will develop the glialities nee= 7
essary in this r orisis. All that is needed is to
keep the men in active operations, in order'
that events may teach us our defects; and force
forward the leaders capable 'of dealitit .with
them.

tion?" is the inquiry of every one, and it is
a question easier. asked_ than answered. The
Chester County Times says that as Eitimbe has
been the underlying cause and origin'of the
war, and is made to figure conviciously in it
by his master. we.purPose to take a view of
him froniiiaTwar stiikpuint. In doing so,
we must regard him either as a " &Miter or
as a " person."
The fewest point of view in which he can bo
considAted ia,that In Which his master regards
him, viz:la chattel, liable to be bought and
sold, to be: wot4c.ed,qed, lodged and directed
as a liorZe or an ox, and to be punished with
out-let or-hindranee on his part as muoh as
his master's overseer may deem necessary.—
This is his status by the laws'of the slave hol
ding states, and ho has no higher rights, ex
cept that his toaster may not kill him at his .
pleasure. Except this, the ox and ho stand
on an equal footing. When his master brings
him to the war, he brings him as a chattel, as
a horse or a hoe, as an ox or a pickaxe, and
when he sets him to work an entrenchments
or fortifications, lie employs hilts as a being
without a will, and as a horse or a pickax. •
Now it is part of the laws of war that belig
orents may do as much injury to each other as
possible, (observing the ordinary laws of hu
manity,) so as to bring the questions between
them to a conclusioU; by the reduction of the
one or the other to terms by defeat, or by con
tending till both parties are willing to adjust
their disputed points by a treaty.—Supposing
then, for the argument, that the confederates
are lawful " belbyerents," it is legitimate war
fare, by the laws Of war, to take and capture
their property, their ships, forts, tents, camp
equipage, entrenching tools and every thing
they use againp us in an offensive manner.—
if then,we may take and confiscate and keep
the tents they use in camp and the picks and
shovels they employ in digging entrench
ments, and the the horses and carts with
which they haul the earth to their embank
mente and walls, why is it not also lawful to
take and - keep and confiscate those other chat
tels, their slaves, with which they use their
horses, carts and pickaxes?
It cannot be objected to this by the rebel
master, that the law provides fortheir rendition'
to him, because he does not recognize•the law,
Ile has repudiated it, he has, trampled it un
der foot, disdained allegiance to it, and is not
therefore in a position to claim its protection
and advantages. Viewed, therefore, as a chat
' tel, with other chattels in his hands, ned us
ing them against the authority and_ laws of
tile nation, Mambo is in that position which
the laws of nations contemplate as rendering
' him subject to confiscation by the party to
which he is opposed, whenever he shall be
captured. lie is contraband of war.
As the Constitution speaksofhitu as a "per
son," we will next, regard him in that light--
Bythe laws of nations, belligerents are en
titled to take as prisoners of war all persona
! who may be found in hostility to them,
whether witillorns in their hands or not.—
TheleamsterWilio drives the wagon that co,ll-
veysleamil equiPaget i§ as much liable to be
captured and held , prisoner 'as the soldier
who'fires the musket; and the quarter-mas
ter who feeds the soldiers as the officer who
commands anti directs them. This beirtg the
ease, if Satoh° be found with arms in his hands
or with pick and shovel, actually or construc
tively, or be aiding directly or indirectly in
the War, he may be lawfully captured as a per
ion and held as a prisoner.
At the end of the war, if he ardently wishes
to resume the status and condition in which he
was found when cap ured, let him be reinsta
ted therein, but If lid does not, (as we think
lie would not,) we have now no law to compel
him to resume his original position. If he
Hhalr be content to re&iiiin iu the country of
of his captors and abide by the laws, those
laws will nob tirive him away under the ,cir
cumstances. We have considered those condi
tions of Sambd-on the supposition that he be
longed to 'a belligerent of recognize& nation
ality in a state of war. Where, however, his
master is in open rebellion agaipst his lawful
government, as in the case of the so called
Confederates, the matter becomes simpler and
plainer and more decisive against hi m , His
master then becomes a traitor, and is liable to
all the penalties of treason. Ills property may
bo confiscated, if the proper authorities shall
so adjudge it, whether it, be used directly or
indirectly or even not used at all, against the
lawful government, and whether it be in chat
tels, human or otherwise. In any view of the
case the Confederate master may be deprived
of Samho's valuable services whether Smith°
bo a chattel or a person and whether his mas
ter be engaged in ty lawful or an unlawful war
against our National Government.
Whether he ought to be deprived of Sambo's
services, in the prosecution of the war is a
question which we will examine in another ar
ticle.

I need not say to you that the Douglas
platform was the fairest proposition that
could have been offered to the South ; nor
need I inform you that the leaders of the
Democracy in that section, and their confreres
in iniquity and treason in Ibis, spurned his
constitutional offer. That the Democratic
party has done great good in the Halcyon
days of its power none eau deny : but when
it departed front its high and holy mission;
when its leaders becomelraitors,to its princi

perdition, or if Ito should array himself on the

not? Nearly' every prominent Secessionist
Solith was in office, and almost all their
friends North were well provided for, but Its
soon ns it became a certainty that power was
about to depart Hem the Democracy its
loaders raised their black tend 'bloody flag to
destroy the best system of government that
was ever fouoded by the ingenuity of man.
I know that you know all this as well as I tie,
and I can only attribute toyou the sentiments
expressed in your letter to your intimate
acquaintance and connection with the partic
ular school of Democratic politicians who
out round you.

Letter From Colonel Wood, of the

RICHMOND, November 10, 1861.
HoN..W. F. ODEt.t.:
MY DEAR FRIEND—Many ebringes have
taken place since 1 saw you in July last, and
none more important to myself than the ono
that occurred yesterday. I have been en my
parole at Charlottesville and at this place
until yesterday.
•
Yesterday, while at dinner at my boarding
house, I was notified that two gmAleineu
desired to see me., I immediately wont up
to the parlor to ascertain the object of this
visit. On entering I recc b urnized ono of the
gentlemen as belonging to General Winder's
office, and he informed toe that the General
desired to see me. • It-being Sunday, it struck
Me that something unusual had or was about
'to happen. On arriving at the General's
eitutiters I asked him for what-purpose he
desired to see me? He answered by saying
that he had a very unplrasent duty to per.
form ; in fact, the most unpleasant duty of
his life, and- handed me a paper to read.
[This paper was Be ujunmOs order to,

Very true friend,
COLONEL A, M. WOOD,
"One of them" thus writes of the Federal
prisoners at Richmond.
My prison associates are gentlemen from
nearly eyery State in the North and West,
whose heels or heads could not Orevent them
from being captured at Bull' Run, Ball's
Bluff etc. etc. Thrown together as we are,
many are the resources we' have for abstract
ing ahmsement from the monotony of prison
lite. As I sit now .at "our mess" table, I
cast a glance around, and photograph the
following picture.
On my right, within reaching distance, sit
silently eitgrossed in cards, a Captain from
Pennsylvaula - ,-a-Lientenatit each from Maine,
Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Ohio. Further on,
two army Chaplains are' quietly discussing
• the past, present, and future religious condi.
tion of the World in general, and for aught I
know, their own present unfortunate condition
in particular.
A few steps more to the right, and we
find LieutenanO Peacock, of the steamer
Font y, captured by the Confederates at
Chico macumico. Ile is surrounded by a
Colonel, a Quartermastesr and a doctor,
whose attention he is engrossing by, a
'relation of the Fanny'ssurprise and capture.
His description is graphic and sometimes
illumined with touches of humor that coeval
ses his audience. More of him anon, for lie
is the bright particular star of our "Confed
eracy." Looking straight before one I see
Com.iressman Ely betiding over his "mess"
table, seemingly hurried in the' mass of
documents around him. Every day, for
hours, he is occupied with his pen, assisted by
,young Hale, of the Navy (a nephew of
Gideon Welles, Secretary of the Navy), who
has volunteered as his .secretary. ' Ety is a
man ot lino social qualities, popular and
gentlemanly, and has the distinguished honor
of being President of the Richmond Prison
Association:.
Tc . rhii left may be seen the fine manly
form and handsome face of Col. Cog.gswell,
of the regular army, who is pacing to and fro
in deep study. epos him devolved the
command after General Baker's death, at the
btfttle - Orßiiirs .. l3tuff. HO is reserved, hut is
possessed of many qualities that command
respect and esteem from his prison assm
ates.
• Near me on the left is the slight but agile
flgure'of Col. Lee, of the Twentieth Massa
chusetts (taken at Ball's Bluff), who is
earnestly cr conversation with two
visitors, one hear is the Epise-mal
Bishop of Vi other a diviqe of note
from the same Stale- Col. Lee has a warmth
and earnestness of manner that endears him
not only to his brother officers, but interests
all who, come within the ,sound of his
genial-voice. Ile is beloved by the junior
officers of his command, lour of whom are
prisoners here, preferring to share•his fate
rather than desert hint when our hard fought
battle .was over
I could occupy pages in describing the
varied characters of my fellow prisoners.

TIIE PEOPLE PATIENT
The citizens of the loyal States are not so
impatient for a battle as to demand that one
should be fought immediately, at all events,
without any regard - to circumstances. We
base this opinion, upon the practical common
sense of the masses. While they are patriotic*
and enthusiastic for the war, their enthusiasm
is regulated and tempered by judgment. Anil
whsdevrr anxiety they may exhibit, is re
strained by their confidence in the Command
ing General of the Grand Army. They be
lieve he will strike at the earliest tnoment he
is sure he can du so successfully. They be
lieve, also, that he is a far better judge on
that point than they, or any class of politicians
however able, can possibly be. They appre
ciate, too, in its full Sense, the terrible conse
quences of a defeat, and they desire Gen.
MI:lellan to run no risk of such a result.—
They know that a detest now would throw us
,flack upon a new beginning, give encourage.
merit and persistence to the enemy, whose
cause is well nigh desperate, dishearten our
forces, and go tar towards extorting a recog
nition of the rebel government from every fo
reign power.
The people of Pennsylvania and other States
arrayed on the side of the Constitution and
Laws, are fully aware of the consequences of
a new disaster. To tight the rebels even on
equal terms, would give them an equal chance
of victory. Therefore, it is hoped that noth
ing will he unnecessarily hazarded. Every
true-hearted citizen is willing to leave the time
as well as the place to Gen. Nl'Clellan's own
discretion. That there is deep anxiety for a
victory, is undeniable. it is simply natural
that there should be. But no more Ball's
Bluff experiments are wanted, and consequent.
ly a perfect willingness prevails to confide the
momentous questiou.to thegallant young Gen
eral upon whom the responsibility has been
devolved
