The Election,
The election on Tuesday was very quiet, and
the vote small. Returns are not all in. Most of
the candidates were - on both tickets. The main
contest was for Sheriff and Treasurer. The Re
publicans have probably carriedlhe former ; the
latter is doubtful.
hate Must be Conquered
It,is well known that the loaders in therebel
lion were determined to destroy the Government.
The country must be ruled by them, or divided.
They would admit of no compromise. Evidence'
is abendant that this h still their purpose.
Northern "peace" men, however, are loth to
believe this. Some of them made a secret trial
on the subject about the opening of the late ses
sion =of Congress. It will be recollected that
Henry May, member elect from Baltimore, pro
fessing Union sentiments, and pretending to have
important private.buiiness in Virginia, obtained
a pass" to go beyond our, Army lines. He went
to Richmond and conferred with the Confederate
leaders. Unfavorable reports getting abroad, a
committee was appOinted, when he appeared in
Congress, to investigate his case. Nothing could
be proved . against him, and he took his seat. But
the truth is, that he was on an errtuyi to the reb
els, It comes out thus: Hon. John A. Logan, 'a
member of Congress from Illinois, was then an
earnest compromise and peace man. He is now
as earnest for the war. He has raised a regi
ment of volunteers, of which he is the Colonel.
He,now sets under the impression that we can
not have a peace till we conquer it. Mr. Logan,
in hie appeals and speeches to his fellow-citizens,
has eiposed,the origin and purpose ' of Mr. May's
visit to Richmond. An Illinois paper, (we quote
,
PRESBYTERIAN
,BANNER.---SATURDAY, OCTOBER 12, 1861.
from the New-York Times of the 30th,) reports
him thus:
"Logan declares that he and other compro
mising men in Congress met in secret conclave, and
determined to make a last effort. Tkey sent Nay
to Richmond to ascertain if the Confederates would
entertain, accept or offer any compromise. No com
promise could be agreed upon, they utterly re
fusing, even though a blank skeet of paper be given
them to write their own terms. Logan declares
their intention is to fight, and, calls upon all Demo
crats to rally around the old flag, and thwart
them in their diabolical efforts to destroy the
Government."
This is but a new confirmation of the well
known truth, that we can have no peaoe with
those who have risen up against their country,
till either we submit or they are conquered. The
shortest way then, to an honorable and lasting
peace is, to put forth our energies and conquer
it. War is brought upon us, and made a neces
sity.
Missouri,
Things • look somewhat brighter in Missouri,
than they did last week. Price found, under the
movements of Fremont's forces, that Lexington
was untenable. Ile left it seemingly intending
to attack the wing of Fremont's army, at Sedalia
and Georgetown, under Generals Siegel and
Davis. This purpose has not been executed, and
the indications are that he is trying to, get:South
without a battle. This, Gen. Fremont will pre
vent, if practicable. •
The retirement of Price from the neighbor
hood of the river will enable Pope and Prentiss,
Speedily we hope, to clear Secession out of North
Missouri, and-then to join Fremont in pursuing
the enemy South.
The unhappy difficulty between Gen. Fremont
and Col. Frank P. Blair, is' still unsettled. Col.
Blair is the mover -in the cuss. lire regret the
position be has taken, and the time he has
chosen. Our confidence in Gen. Fremont is
great, but we profess not to judge between rivals,
so far distant from , us, till facts shall be more
fully aeveloped.
Washington.
The army opposite Washington , is slowly and
quietly establishing itself in advanced positions,
as the enemy retires. There .are, howevej, no
indications of a forward movement, in force.
The batteries on. the Virginia side of. the
river, from Occoquan to Acquia Creek, have
been nearly silent, for a week, and large num
bers of vessels, with warlike stores, and pro
visions are arriving at Washington and George
town.
OOTOBER 7.—Brig. Gen. \M'COok will leave

The General who is to relieve Gen. Anderson
is W. T. Sherman, brother of the Senator of that
The War Department is overrun with appli
cants for offices and contracts. The Secretary's
door is constantly besieged by persons who want
interviews with him to serve personal ends. The
Secretary desires it to be distinctly understood
that there are no vacancies of paymasters, quar- .
termasters or commissaries in his gift, nor are
there any appointments of officers of the line to
be made, excepting in regular course of promo
tion. When second lieutenancies are thus va
cated, the places will be filled by appointments
from the ranks.
Gen. Fleintzelman having completely recovered
from his wound, has been assigned to the com
mand of a division.
Persons writing to the several heads of de
partments complain that they receive no answers
to their letters. It is proper, therefore, to state
that the departments were organized on the basis
of peace. The business of every department is
extended at the present moment by the sudden
outbreak of a formidable civil war. Only such
official letters as necessarily require acknowledg
ment can be
r answered, while a greater mass of
correspondence, though unacknowledged, re
ceives, as far as possible, due attention.
Secretary Cameron, last week, ordered the
Commissary-General hereafter to buy &skated
vegetables and other prepared food from Ameri
can manufacturers, ,and not to make any more
contracts for foreign articles, giving as his reason
his desire that all the money of the country
should be kept here to carry on the war.
Private information has recently been received
from the.rebel 'army, which renders, it probable
that their strongest position is about a mile and
and a quarter in the rear of Manassas Junction,
where the entire available reserves of the South
are being collected. This information comes
from a person who has recently, in the interest of
the Government, visited all ctte prineipal points
from Richmond to Leesburgh. He fully confirms
previous reports of the dissatisfaction and de
moralization which exist in the rebel army, in
ereaiied to a great extent by the recent National
victory at Hatteras, and by the ill success of
Floyd, Wise, and Lee in Western Virginia.
Washington dispatches report that the 6th

Gen. Itosecranz, he will be able fully to sustain
himself against the combined forces of the rebel

Fremont will have occasion to complain of in
sufficient force, as the Administration is not un
mindful of the importance of affording them all
the support which their several positiOns re
quire.

An Important Paper from the Delaware
Nation.
The St. Louis Democrat publishes an important
address signed by the Chiefs of the Delaware Na
tion of Indians, and addressed to all the other
Indian tribes, declaring for the Union. 'The pa
per reads as follows:
f , Delaware Nation, Statkof Kansas, Sept. 24th,
1861.—Anderson Sarkoxie, Head Chief of the
Delawares, in the State of Minna, and Ne-con
he-quin;' Second Chief, Ind, John. Conner, Thiid
Chief, send to their grand children of other na
tions their friendship, and , ask of them not to
quarrel and shed blood about the condition of
the country. Let none of, the tribes war against
the Union, and the Great Father who is at the
head of the Government, but let all of them stand
by the Union. If there shbuld be any divisiOn
in any nation, and any part of a tribe attempt to
assail and war against the others, because they
are for the preservation of the Union, then we,
the Chiefs of the Delawares, promise and obligate
ourselves to lend the whole power of the nation
to aid and'protect such tribes as may be invaded.
We say to our Creek friends, and to all other na
tions, that we will stand and die by the Great
Father, who is now using all his lawful power to
preserve the Union; and we will permit no other
nation to war against the Union with impunity."
Here follow the signatures of the Chiefs, with
those- 'of the witnesses. The paper is then ad
dressed to
" George Mclntosh, Head Chief of the, Creek
Nation, with the request that this be communi
cated to all the Nations with which he can com

Resolved, That it be recommended to the Exe

to apprehend and secure all persona who have in
their getieral conduct and conversation, evidenced a.
disposition inimical to the cause of America;
and that the persons so seized be confined in such
places, and treated in such manner, as shall be
consistent with their respective characters, and
the security of their persons.
Culture of Tobateo in the North.
Tobacco culture in the North is a novelty, and
yet it is pronounced a success. There are many
acres of the weed growing in • Massachusetts,
New-York, tind - other Northern States,,and as an
evidence that our soil and climate are net unfa
vorable to the plant, it is said that Northern
grown tobacco is already becoming a noticeable
element in the market. The crop of New-Eng
land this year is reported to be very. promising.

GREAT BRITAM
The steamship Great Eastern arrived at Queens,
town, Ireland, on the 17th inst. She experienced
a terrific gale when two days out, about 28t) miles
west of Cape Clear. The furniture and luggage
on board was mostly destroyed and some of the
passengers injured. It.was expected every mo

case theloss of life would have been very large.
Temporary steering-gear was finally fitted, and
the ship put back with her screw, going at the

years. a Sabbath School teacher. Re was universally es
teemed for hit integrity, his generous spirit, arßent piety,
and godly example. His death was a great triumph. The
adversary in his last hours tried all his power to awakrn a
doubt in his mind; and while struggling with the tempta-
Non, he asked to be turned upon his face, as near the posture
of prayer as his dying condition would admit,- and pouring
put his whole soul in prayer, for about ten minutes, for
grace and strength, the adversary fled; and he had the full
assurance of faith, and exclaimed: "Oh, Lord Jesna, , why so
long delay thy coming? come quickly. Farewell, dear
friends, I am going asleep. Lord Testis, receive my spirit."
Re then gently fell asleep, to rise at the first resurrection.
"All our brother's strife is o'er,
Pain nor grief assail him more;
gloom is now absorbed in light,
Rope in rapture, faith in eight."
"Scenes seraphic, high, and glorious,
Nov forbid his longer stay;
See him ese o'er death victorious,
. Angels beckon him away."

The New-York Times says of it: " The thorough intel
lectual mastery of the subject determines the quality of the
book, the moral warmth which runs latent through It (break
ing at times into an eloquence which fairly burns)—takes
its power from -the weight of his facts and the force of his
logic. There is in his treatment of the question, a wise mod
eration that carries with it convincing force."
The*New-York Eaening Post says: *lt is he wisest book
which has been written upon America since Do Tocqueville.
* * Remarkablefor its intelligence, its insight, its
logic, and its nobleness of purpose."
From the New-York Tribune: "The author thinks that
we are rising, awakening, coming to ourselves, asserting our
right in the time of trial, and eY vinTne OF THAT TRlAL—hail
this work been written but a few weeks ago, it could not be
