We wish we had a little more pre-discernment, that we might better accommodate public taste. In war,. however, concealment is one of the essential ingredients of success; and for this reason, not only should Cabi. nets and Generals be reticent, but prophets also should suppress the utterances of their wisdom. About the utmost that we can now say with certainty is, that great preparations are being made. We have an army on the upper Potomac, threatening Winchester, an army at Washington, which is stretch ing out toward Gordonsville, and an army gathering about Fortress Monroe, which, with the naval force there, looks frowningly upon Richmond. Another week or two of time may enable us to say upon which place the first serious attack is directed. The report-of the evacuation of Cumber land Gap, •by our troops, proves to have been correct. It is greatly to be regretted that the place could not have been held. The enemy is retiring before our forces in Kentucky. We would hope that our possession of the country we may occupy, henceforth, dill be made sure. The rapid movements and far advances of last Spring were well conceived and well executed; and they would have been wise, if we had brought out a sufficient force to occupy, hold firmly, and pacify the country in our rear; but, with our defective armies, they have proved to be miscalculations. We lost men, money, time, friends, and pres tige, thereby. We calculated too much ,upon the feebleness of our foe, and too much upon a strong Union feeling in Ken tucky and Tennessee. Wisdom is to be learned by experience. Gen. Grant holds West Tennessee, and has gained a brilliant victory at Corinth. In Missouri we are not likely to have very much trouble. Mobile is threatened by our fleet. We have a large naval force in the Gulf, and Mobile is the only important seaport there which is possessed by the enemy. Gen. Mitchell and Admiral Dupont are concentrating forces at Port Royal, having one eye on Savannah and the other on Charleston. In each of these ports the enemy is preparing iron-clad vessels, and their speedy capture is vastly important. Some more of our own iron clads are needed to do the work with ease. NEW-ORLEANS has been exceedingly healthy during the Summer. There has been no yellow fever, and no malignant epidemic of any kind. This is a wonder to the people, there being, by the presence of a Northern army, so many unacclimated persons in the city. The oath of allegiance has been taken very extensively, to save confiscation ; that law going into operation ou the 28d ult. On that day the adminis tration of civil law took the place of the military. Judges opened their courts in the various districts, and the sheriff and his deputies commenced operations. The working of the system will be looked to with much interest. Gen. Batler, how ever, is still commander, with the war power THE STRENGTH OF THE &M6.—The South has now called to the battle field, nearly the utmost of her strength. The last Winter's conscription embraced all the able bodied men between the ages of 18 and 35. This, with the former levies, gave an army of about 700,000. This swelled their armies sufficiently to beat us back in Virginia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Arkansas; to stop U 3 in Mississippi, to diminish our hold in South Carolina and Louisiana, and to give us some trouble in Missouri. With our new recruits ar riving, the tables are turned. The ene my's progress is not only checked, but his principal armies are on the retreat. And his losses are immense. The army of Gen. Lee, in all the series of battles before Richmond, lost about 30,000 men ; and he his lo.it about 60,000 since he left Rich ; mond. This number embraces his losses on the Rapidan, Rappahannock, about Ma nasses, and in Maryland. His losses in the West have not been so great, but there are hard battles yet to be fought. Tb make up these losses, and to strength en the armies against our increase, the Confederates have ordered a new conscrip tion. This embraCes all men fit for war, between the ages of 35 and 45. Accord ing to the late census „tables there are about 300,000 in the Southern States em• braced in this period of life. But of men between 35 and 45, only about one half are fit for military duty. This would increase their armies 150,000 men; a number which ill. not greatly, if at all, exceed their oases since the opening of the Spring campaign. Ls we see that exhaustion rapidly ap- Les, in the South. The levy now id will not make their army equal, by amount, to ours, which is now get lady, and they have no new class of ition on which to draw. After the g Winter, then, their forces must ly dee line. Can they not see this ? 'e not hope that wisdom will soon re ,o the people, and that they will cease their rebellion. The only condition ice and safety, which is required of ,asses, is, that they cease to do evil." (e strength of the South, as all know, its greatly in slaves; men who toil at in needful work, while the freemen t to battle. Soon, if the war shall sue, our enemy will be weakened at point. Actual freedom may not go 'r than our armies advance; but the ~ hearing of the proclamation, as-thty will very speedily, will manage to escape in vast numbers, or will rise in rebellion against their masters, as their masters have against the Government. If then the war shall be pressed vigor ously, its termination will be speedy. Polities and the War. We have so little love for party politics, or rather we have such an aversion to the measures resorted to by partisans to carry their ends, that we are liable to be too in credulous to every thins that is affirmed, on either side, in a political contest. We can give full credit to scarcely any thing that is said or written, which has any bearing OD candidates or public measures, during a canvass. Political parties have, in some aspects, a beneficial influence on Government. An eagle-eyed opposition makes an Administration careful, cautious, and attentive to public interests. But too often the ins and the outs are like Esop's flies; and it is a less evil to leave those already gorged, in quiet possession, than to let them be supplanted by a hungry swarm. Just at the present' time, partizanship is peculiarly injurious. Union is indispens able to safety, and politics seem to be taking such a turn that union may be rendered impracticable. Two classes of men seek to possess the Government. Both of these cry out perpetually against the course of public affairs. The President does not please either. He will not be controlled by by either. They divide on the members of the Cabinet. They praise, and blame, and quarrel about the Generals he entrusts. They are denunciatory in regard to meas ures adopted, or proposed, for the carrying on of the war. They are at daggers' points respecting the end to be attained by the war. Their contests and vituperations weaken alike the bands of the Government, and 'the hearts and hopes of the people. What then is to be done ? Save the Union, all say. But bow ? By a proper use of power, all say again. But still, be tween the ultras there is an immense dif ference. A few leaders on one side say that it is impossible to save the Union without conserving slavery. These oppose every measure which tends to destroy the institution. Other leaders, or would-be leaders, say that while slavery exists there can be no Union—that is, no union se curing harmonious action and peace. These make measures to banish slavery, a first essential. Tho one class cannot or will not strive to save the Union unless they can also save slavery. The other would see the Union dissolved, rather than that slavery should maintain its status. Neither can hence yield a hearty support to the Admin istration. Each would rather thwart than help forward. an effective plan to subdue the foe, if thereby their own peculiar aim would be subverted. The one thinks that embarrassments will drive the country to a total abolition of slavery, and to the em ploying of the slaves in fighting for their own freedom ; the other imagines that de lays and ill success will make the people willing to accept of peace on any terms. And each side wants political power, so as to direct measures to the accomplishing of its own aims Within about a month, a new Congress is to be elected. This Congress will not come into power until the fourth of March neat; and may not meet, unless called by the President, until the following Decem ber. Before that time we trust that the rebellion will be suppressed. It ought to be, and would be suppressed ere then, if we were all of one mind, and all in earnest. The Fall elections, however, are to have a vast influence. Not only is the character of the next Congress to be determined, but State officers and Legislatures are to be chosen. In these elections, the desire of the country as to the policy of the war will be indicated. Will the policy of the Ad ministration be sustained? If so, neither of the factiOns to which we have alluded, will be placed in the position of influence. The President is with neither. He wishes to preserve the Constitution and restore the Union. He wars not for slavery, nor against it. If it is in the way, let it perish. If it is not in the way, do not turn aside to assail it. There are but very few sane men, in the loyal States, who would leave their homes for three years, or even for nine',, months, and endure hardships, and risk life in the camp and the battle-field, for the sake of either slavery or abolition. It is mainly stay-at-home folks, who talk of such devotion. The vast body of the peo ple, and especially our soldiers, do and en dure for their country, not for the slave. But violent partisans always lead in elec tions. They make a great commotion, and they tell the people that a man can do nothing by himself; that he must be on the one side or the other, to have any in fluence. Sometimes this is so, but not always. Moderate men, serious, thinking men, sometimes do control elections ; they always should control them, and gen erally might do so. And now, if ever, they should exhibit their firmness of ow pose, their true loyalty, and the power of numbers. Repel fanatics. Shun traitors. And trust no man who is but lukewarm in his country's cause. As we understand the Administration, it is determined to carry on the war, under the Constitution, and with the utmost vigor practicable. It will make no compromise with rebels in arms. Every seceded State must submit to Federal authority There will be no recognition of the rebellion, and no separation of the Union, by the consent of the President. Cannot the people and their Government cooperate on this princi ple? Let us have a country; and to this end let politics be submissive, and let the war be waged with vigor• Launch of an Iron clad Steamer. BOSTON, Oct. 7.—The new iron-clad steamer, built on the plan of the Monitor and called the Nahant, was successfully launch ed at South Boa thrt, ttiTday. PRESBYTERIAN BANNER.---SATURDAY, OCTOBER 11, 1862. Ocneral Stamp Duties. Mr. Hunt, of this city, has issued, on a card very convenient for office use, a schedule of U. S. Stamp Duties. Price 10 cents. Ferocity of the Rebels. A passenger from Richmond, at Fortress Mon roe, reports that the Confederate Congress have resolved in all future actions to hoist the black flag and exterminate the Union troops without granting quarters. The measure was proposed, debated, and referred to a committee. We have not yet seen any statement of the final action. The House will likely hesitate before resolving upon a measure so desperate, so savage, and so destructive to themselves if retorted. In a similar strain the Richmond Whig, speak ing of President Lincoln's proclamation, says: "It ordains servile insurrection in the Confede rate States, and it is not misunderstood in the South or North. It is a dash of the pen to de stroy four thousand millions of our property, and is as much as a bid for the slaves to rise in in surrection, with assurance of aid from the whole military and naval power of the United States." It speaks of the cruelty of the Administration, and says " Butler is a Saint compared with his muter. Our military operations are henceforth to assume a very'grave character. The friends of the new programme will necessarily destroy all terms be tween.•us. ^ The next campaign will be a tremen dous-one,- both for the magnitude and character of the hostilities. Let our authorities prepare the whole strength of our people for the tremen dous Shock. The enemy is making great , prepa rations, as well as issuing fiendish proclamations. •We must respond with equal energy ; if we do not, we shall be lost; but we will do it." This shows that the Proclamation is not re garded by the South as a mere brutum fulmen. And in this they are good judges. They expect, to find it a terrific war measure. And it will he so if our Government is faithful, and is sus• tained by the people. The measure, if enforced with the vigor which is practicable, and which is clue to the country's interest, will make the war, short, and will save to the North myriads of EMI Address to the President. The Governors of twelve of the loyal States, Governal Curtin, of Pennsylvania; Governor Sprague, of Rhode Island; Governor Andrews, of Massachusetts; Governor Tod, of Ohio; Governor Kirkwood, of lowa. Governor Bradford, of Maryland; Governor Washburne of Maine; Governor Terry, of dew Hampshire; Governor Olden, of New Jersey; Governor Pierpont, of Virginia ; Governor Solomon, of Wisconsin; Governor Yates, of Illinois; met at Altoona, Pa., on the 22d of September, for conference on the state of the country. Indiana, Kentucky, Missouri, and Vermont, were represented.by proxy. Governor Ramsay regretted his inability to be present, on account of the Indian war on his border. The meeting was, we have reason to believe, harmonious. After comparing views on sundry matters of deep national importance, they adopt ed an address to the President, and adjourned to Washington City. There they paid their re spects personally to the Preaident. We are not sure that the. Governors did right in holding this meeting. The President has his constitutional advisers, in his Cabinet; and either directly, or through that Cabinet, all in formation and counsel may be made to reach him. And- if more is needed, Congress can be assem bled, at any time, in silty days. While we do not disapprove of any thing the Governors did in their joint counsel, we still regret that they had their meeting. We love a government of law, and from established legal modes we would. not depart, unless under imperious necessity. The following is the written result of their de liberations : WASHINGTON, Oct. 2, 1862. ADDRESS to the people of the United States, adopted at a meeting of Governors of the loyal States, held to„take measures for the more ac tive support of the Government, at Altoona, Pa., on the twenty-second day of September, eighteen hundred and sixty-two. After nearly one year and a half spent in con test with all armed and gigantic rebellion against the National Government of the United States, the duty and purpose of the loyal States and people continue and must always remain as they were at its origin, namely : to restore and, per petuate the authority of the Government and the life of the Nation. No matter what consequences are involved in our fidelity, nevertheless, this work of restoring the republic, preserving the institutions and justifying the hopes and terms of our fathers, shall not fail to be performed, and we pledge, without hesitation, to the President of the United States, the most loyal and cordial support hereafter, as heretofore, in the exercise of the functions of his great office. We recog nise in him the Chief Executive Magistrate of the nation, the Commander-in-Chief of the army and navy of the United States, their responsible and constitutional head, whose rightful authority and power, as well as the Constitutional powers of Congress, must be vigorously and religiously guarded and preserved as the condition on which all our form of Government, and the Constitu tional rights and liberties of the people them selves, can be saved from the wreck of anarchy, or from the rule of despotism, in submission to the laws which may have been, or which may be duly , enacted, and to the lawful order of the President cooperating always in our own spheres in the National Government. We mean to con tinue in the most vigorous exercise of all our lawful and proper powers contending against treason and rebellion, or the public enemies, and whether in public life or in , private station, sup porting the arms of the Union until its cause shall conquer; until final victory shall perch upon the standard, or the rebel foe shall make a dutiful, rightful and unconditional submission. We are impressed with the conviction that an army of reserves ought to be constantly kept on foot, to be raised, armed, equipped and trained at home and ready for any emergencies. - We respectfully ask the President to call for such a force of volunteers for one year's service, of not less than one hundred thousand in the aggregate, the quota of each State to be raised after it shall have filled its quota of the requisitions already made both for volunteers and for militia. We believe that this would be a measure of military prudence, while it would greatly promote the military education of the people. We hail with gratitude and encourage the hope that the Proc lamation of the President issued on the 22d inst., declaring emancipated from their bondage all persons held to service or labor as slaves in the rebel States, whose rebellion shall last till the Ist day of January next. The right of any per sons to retain authority to compel any portion of the subjects of the National Government to rebel against it, or to maintain its enemies, implies all those who are allowed the possession of such au thority. The right to rebel themselves, and therefore the right to establish martial law or military government in a State or Territory, in rebellion, implies the right and duty of the Gov ernment to liberate the minds of all men living therein by appropriate proclamations and assur ances of protection. In order that all who are capable intellectually and morally, of loyalty and obedience may not be forced into treason as the unwilling tools of rebellious . traitors, to have continued indefinitely the most efficient cause to support a state of the rebellion, would have been, in our judgment, unjust to the loyal people, whose treasure and lives have been made a wil ling sacrifice on the altar of patriotism, would have discriminated against the wife, who is com pelled to surrender her husband; against the parent who is to surrender his child to the hard ships of the camp. If rebel masters were per mitted to retain their slaves, it would have been a final decision alike against huthanity and jus tice, the rights and dignity of the Government, and against sound and wise national policy. The decision of the President to strike at the rbbf td the Vettellicin will lend new vfgbr to. the efforts and new life and hopes to the hearts of the I people. Cordially tendering to the President our re spectful assurances of personal and official confi dence, we trust and believe that the policy now inaugurated will be crowned with success, and will give speedy and triumphant victories over our enemies, and secure to this nation and this people the blessing and favor of Almighty God. We believe that the blood of the heroes who have already fallen, and those who may yet give their lives to their country, will not have been shed in vain. The splendid valor of our soldiers, their patient endurance, their manly patriotism, and their devotion to duty, demand from us, and from all their countrymen, the homage of the sincerest gratitude; the pledge of our constant reinforcement and support. A just regard for these brave men whom we have contributed to place in the field, and for the importance of . the duties which may lawfully pertain to us hereaf ter, has called us into friendly conference. And now, presenting to our National Magistrate this conclusion of our deliberations, we devote our selves to our country's service; and we will sur round our President in our constant support, trusting that the fidelity and zeal of the loyal States and people will always assure him that he will be constantly maintained in pursuing with rigor this war for the preservation of the na tional life and the hopes of humanity.

Skirmishing commenced on Tuesday last, and there has been more or less fighting every day since. The rebel loss is about 800 killed and 1,500 to 1,800 wounded. We have 1,500 prison e-.78 at Corinth, 300 on the Ratchie river, and l more are constantly coining in. We have taken t4several thousand stand of arms throwl away by t the rebels in their flight. They are mostly new 1 English make. Our loss is believed to be 300 killed and 1,000 wounded. Many of the houses in the town are badly shattered - by shot and shell. On Sunday General Ord drove the enemy five miles, over hills and through woods and val leys, the rebels taking advantage of every wood for their infantry and every hill for their artil lery. The fight lasted seven hours. The rebel General Rogers was killed. General Oglesby has died of his wounds. Generals Ord and Peach are slightly wounded. Prisoners taken say that their effective force in that vicinity was 65,000. This is probably an over-estimate, but it is *certain that they have outnumbered us two to one. Thanks to the finny of the Potomac. WASHINGTON, Sept.'3o.—TO Major General Mc- Clellan, commanding the Army of the Potomac: General, your report of yesterday, giving the re sults of the battles of South Mountain and An tietam, has been received and submitted to the President. These were hard-fought battles, but well earned and decided victories. The valor and endurance of your army in the several con flicts, which terminated in the expulsion of the enemy from the loyal State of Maryland, are creditable alike to the troops and to the officers who commanded them. A grateful country, while mourning the lamented dead, will not be unmindful of the honors due the living, (Signed) Yellow Fever at Wilmington,. N. C. The yellow fever is assuming fearful propor tions in Wilmington, N.

CAPE RACE, October 4.—The steamer Tura, from Liverpool on the 25th, via Londonderry on the 26th ult., was boarded at nine o'clock this morning, by the news yacht of the Associated Press. The news of Gen. McClellan's victory over Gen. Lee was received with much satisfaction by the Federal party in Liverpool, and gave an im petus to the cotton market, which was checked by large arrivals of Burets. The London Times, of the 28th ult., in an edi torial says: After the recent events, it is not impossible that we may yet see Garibaldi crossing the Atlantic in the assumed character of an American citizen, and fighting for the subjuga tion of a nation struggling to be free. The Morning , Post remarks that to be constant to his principles, Garibaldi should go to the oth er side, where 9,000,000 are lighting for the right of governing themselves. The London Times says that Gen. Pope, by his own reports, has succeeded in proving that if there was one man more than another unfit to have the command in the Federal army, it is a querulous General, who puts the blame of every failure upon others. The Times has an editorial highly eulogistic of the Canadas for their subscription for the relief of the distressed operatives of. Lancashire. It regards the subscription as It proof that whatever difficulties may now , and then arise, in, adjUsting the relative obligations of Great Britain and her colonies, their devotion to the crown is real and active at home. • At a meeting of a few representatives from the London firms connected with the Manchester trade, to examine the proposed substitute for cotton, they signed a memorandum in favor of its length, strength and beauty, :which in their opinion rendered it worthy of their most carefill consideration. Whether the manufacture of it can be economically and successfully applied, they leave to others to determine. Roussel, the late member of Parliament, was placed on his trial in London, on the 24th, for forging deeds and the will of his late father, thereby possessing himself of immense wealth. He pleaded guilty, in a calm, egotistical and ap parently penitent speech. He was sentenced to transportation for life. The Journal Decoun shows that the depression in the cotton trade had exercised a very bene ficial influence on the French woolen maunfac tories. A large Garibaldi meeting was held at the Stockholm Exchange, at which an address was enthusiastically adopted expressing sympathy for Garibaldi, and urging the speedy evaouation of Rome by the French. Garibaldi, under date of September 14th, writes: "I am a prisoner and dangerously wounded': It is consequently impCssible for me to dispose of myself.. " However, as soon as I am restored to liberty, and my wounds'are healed, I-shall take the first favorable opportunity to satisfy my desire to serve the great American Republic, of which I am a citizen, and which is now fighting; for uni versal liberty." gontmertial. rittaburgh Market. - WEDNESDAY, Oct. 8,1882.

September 17th, mor tally wounded. Re •was a young man of much promise. We have not heard whether in the absence of his pious friends he was cheered by the presence of a_chaplairt. Doubtless the three days which he survived, after the fatal wound, were employed in Wilting his work. It ie a consolation to know that a loved one has . had even this brief space to commend his spirit., into the hands of Jesus. DIED—On Saturday morning, September 27th, after a lingering illness, Mrs. MARY LONG, wife of Arthur Long, Esq. The deceased was a sufferer for months, and from a form of disease that based the best med ical skill. Her disease was complicated ; Orig inating perhaps in the liver, but affecting various other abdominal organs, and reaching in, its final issue a dropsical character, which soon ran its course, and released its subject from sorrow and.suffering here, to enter upon that rest which remaineth for the people of God in heaven, Mrs. Long was in the sixtieth year of her age, and had been for more than forty years an hum ble, meek, and quiet member of Bethel church: She was the mother of, eight• children, seven' of whom survive her. And in all the relations of life, as a wife, a mother, a neighbor, and a member of the church, it could with the strictest truth. be said, that kindness, gem. tleness, 'meekness, and peacefulness, were visible characteristics. Those who knew her best, only knew her to love and respect her. So long as able, she loved to attend the house of God, and seemed to enjoy his ordinances with a sweet and holy relish. And during her last days, that Saviour in whom she had long trusted, did not forsake her. She was calm and resigned— enabled to give up husband, and children, and friends without a murmur, though in her heart she felt all that tender affection which belongs to the true•hearted wife and loving mother. She has gone from the family-cirele and her place in the church. We Anil meet her no more in this 'Aide of t&re, bit a hitie -40:demee that warrants the belief that she is now at rest with the saiuts.in glory. Then, mourning husband and sorrowing chil dren, God says to you, look up and see her once so dear to you all, once your counsellor and com forter, now with Jesus, purified and in heavenly attire. She has fought her last fight with sin and Satan, has gained the victory, and is now crowned with glory. And from on high she beckons you all to follow on and follow upward, till Jesus shall bid you lay nside the earthly house of your tabernacle for one not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. " Blessed are the dead which die in the Lord from henceforth : yea, saith the Spirit, that they may rest from their labors ; and their works do follow them." G. M.

Mr. EOWt invites attention to the important improve mente which be has recently made in his Sewing Machines, which enables them to do a larger range of work with less machinery, less noise, less tronble, and more perfectly than auy llnchino now before the public. The missing of stitches and breaking of needles, so common and annoying in other Machines, is entirely done away with in the Ineaocatt nmr. No trouble in making any garment worn by male or female, hew ver delicate or heavy. with silk, cotton, or linen threads on the same Machine. We use a straight needle, and the stitch Is elastic and alike on both sides. For Rhin Makers, Dress Makers, Tailors, Shoe Binders, Gaiter Fitter'', as well as for every variety of Family Sewing, the Improved Howe Machine now stands far in advance of the Machines of the day, and they will be sold at a much lees price than any other Machine capable of doing the same tang • of work in as good a manner. No person should think of purchashig a Sewing Machine without first seeing this—the latest and greatest triumph of the original inventor of the Sewing Machine.
