The enemy chose his own time and place of attack and knowing the troops of the West as he does and with great facilities for knowing their numbers never would have made the at tack except with a superior force numerically But for the undaunted bravery of Hirers and soldiers who have yet to learn defeat the ef forts ot the enemy must have proven success Whilst one division of the army under Major General Rosecrans was resisting and repelling the onslaught of the rebel hosts at Corinth another from Bolivar under Major General Hurlbut was marching upon the ar driving in their picketsand cavalry and attract ing the attention of a large force of infantry and artillery On the following day under Major General Ord these forces advanced with unsurpassed gallantry driving the enemy back across the Hatchie over ground It is almost incredible that a superior force should be driven by an inferior capturing two of the batteries (eight guns) many hundred small arms and several hundred prisoners To those two divisions of the army all praise is due and will be awarded by a grateful coun try Between them there should be and I trust are the warmest bonds of brotherhood Each was risking life in the same cause and on this occasion risking it also to save and assist the other No troops could do more than these separated armies Each did all possible for it to do in the places assigns it

Military Art and Science that Ctnsar marched the legions rom Rome to theSierra Mbrena in Spain at the rate ot twenty leagues a day In the campaign "of 1800 Mac donald wishing to prevent the escape of an enemy in a single day marched forty miles crossing rivers and climbing mountains Clau se after the battle of Salamanca retreated forty miles in twelve hours flu 1814 Napoleon wishing to form a junction with other" troops for the succor of Paris marched his army the distance of seventy five miles in thirty six hours' On the day of the battle of Talavera in Spain General Crawford fearing that Welling ton was bard pressed made a forced march with three thousand men the distance of sixty two miles in twenty six hours In 1803 Wel cavalry in luuia marched the distance of sixty miles in twenty two hours Il is said that the English cavalry under Lord Lake marched seventy miles in twenty four hours As a general rule says Gen Halleck troops marching for many days in succession will move at the rate of frqm fifteen to twenty miles per day In forces marches or in pursuit of a flying enemy they will average from twenty to twenty five miles a day Only for two or three days in succession with favorable roads thirty miles a day may be Calculated on Where marches beyond this occur they are the result of extraordinary circumstances OLKER TAYLOR A BARS ptBLISIiEHS AND PROPRIETORS A me Dally

this season of ourleading railways especially those penetrating the western grain regions has be largely In excess of the corresponding months in the summer of 1861 In some cases the in creased receipts have run up to twenty five thirty and even forty per cent There is a gen eral complaint about the lack of locomotives and rolling stock which must be purchased largely to meet the demaud certain to arise during the winter months The increased receipts have been derived from enhanced rates ol transportation as 11 as the greater volume of trade presenting itself Within two months many advances have taken place in the through tariff of mer chandize on the Erie and we presume on all the east and west lines The increasing resources of our railroads coupled with improved rates and

I Of apf ed Democratic City Convent ion The Democratic City Convention assembled pursuant to adjournment at 2 on riday in'the City Hall John lullcr in the chair Dr Gorton moved that a committee of one

Edward Kanter Second VlTird Carpenter Third Ward Cicott ourth Ward Dr Gorton I if th Ward Matthew Mullaney Sixth Ward Joseph Lingeman Seventh Hard James Riley Eighth Ward Hughes kinth Ward Martin Kane Tenth Ward John Kendall The committee then retired lor conference and after a short absence returned and reported through their Chairman Dr Gorton that they had concluded by a vote of six to four to adopt the Union ticket entire On four of the can didates the vote the committee was unanimous It was moved and seconded that the report be received and adopted Lost Mr Kanter moved that the convention ac cept by acclamation all the nominees of the Union Convention except Mr Warner upon whom the conference committee disagreed Mr Cicott moved as an amendment that the convention proceed to ballot for Representa tives The ayes and nays were called on the amendment which resulted in its adoption It was moved that the vote by which the convention resolved to proceed to ballot be re considered Mr Hunt thought that this motion should be reconsidered and then by adopting the ticket of the Union Convention with the exception of Mr Warner the Unionists would be concili ated and the ticket would succeed The motion to reconsider prevailed On motion of Hughes Mr Lock wood was declared the nominee of convention Alexander Chapoton was then named as a candidate A member said he understood tha Mr Chapoton would not accept John Schneider then moved that John Meldrum be substituted The motion was lost On motion Mr Chapoton was then nom inated Lorenzo Mason and Stanley Wight were then separately voted upon and nominated It was then suggested that Mr Lothrop who was present be invited to ad drees the convention There being no objec tion Mr Lothrop came forward and said he regarded with solicitude their action to day and the only ground for such solicitude was the weal of the State in connection with the weal of the nation He had no interest in any cause but that of the Union The only object in meeting together to day to unite upon a ticket was to serve the cause of our country by placing in power good conservative men The nomination made yesterday was made in no disrespect to this convention Ho thought it was made with a view to the best interests of the country He believed there were ten thousand republicans in the State who were in favor of detaching themselves from their party and supporting the Union movement but strong arguments were being made throughout the State to force them back into the republi can ranks and one of the strongest was that the democrats in Wayne county where they thought they would be victorious refused to unite with the Unionists that they were acting evidently in bad faith and were cheating and deluding the republicans He wanted them to unite especially here to show that they were sincere The republicans he said in the Union Convention on Thursday were satisfied with placing two of their party on the ticket This convention had now adopted four of those can didates and he would say a few words in favor of Mr Warner whom they wished to reject Mr Warner he said was a man of brains and had been a very strong republican and for that reason he should be the nominee of this con vention We wanted no milk and water repub lican on the ticket Mr Cicott wanted to know if Mr Warner would vote for Mr Chandler if elected Mr Lothrop said he would guarantee that he would not vote for Chandler any sooner than he would cut off his right hand He did not wish to discuss the merits of particular men but would vouch for Mr Warner as he had worked hard ior some time past in aiding in this Union movement Mr Kendall moved that William Warner be declared the nominee of the convention Mr Cicott moved to amend by substituting the name of Bethune Duffield The amend ment was lost Mr Kendall then renewed his motion which was carried and Mr Warner declared unani mously nominated The convention then adjourned sine die THE RtBEL ORAY ON

for that is at a low enough valuation in the markets of Europe But it must be remembered that the Con federate government owns in its own right an immense quantity of the cotton of the owns in point ot fact as much of tbe precious staple as it may be able to use and that at the present enormous price of cotton a ship load of it in the markets of England or at Havana will procure guns enough to arm a division and artillery enough to accompany it A single cargo of cotton running tbe blockade from Charleston to England will itself pur chase a very respectable iron clad steamer quite fit for rebel service The cargoes which have run the blockade heretofore have been mostly used in the purchase' of arms and ammunition but the Confederacy is now well supplied with arms and it can use all the subsequent cargoes it sends across the seas ior the purchase of a navy This is where the money comes from and as the bill authorizing' the building or purchase of vessels abroad has been ostenta

advance of his forces to prepare our people for the sudden transition from the Stars and Stripes to the Stars and Bars Geu Hampton permitted my associates to do so but detailed me to pilot his advance guard at ouee to the telegraph office I performed ta duty assigned me with io great compunctions as I had seen Mr Gilmore the operator begin to for them fully an hour before and the rebel that outwits him must take a very early start Messrs Kenne dy and Kimmell proceeded to town to get the people to retire peaceably and prevent auy pro voking demonstrations and so rebel rule be gan in Chambersburg They marched in very orderly and most of their force started out dif ferent roads to procure horses forage and pro visions In an hour they returned with all the horses they couid find and dismounted to spend the night on the turnpike in front of my door It was now midnight and I sat on the porch ob serving their movements They had my best corn field beside them and their horses fared well In a little while one entered the yard came up to me and after a profound bow po litely asked tor a few coals to start a tire I supplied him and informed him as blandly as possible where he would find wood convenient ly as I had dim visions of camp fires of my palings I was thanked in return and the mild mannered villain proceeded at once to strip the fence and kindle tires Soon alter a squad came and asked permission to get some water INTRODUCED TO A I piloted thim to the pump and again re ceived a profusion of thanks Communication having thus been opened between us squads followed each other closely for water but each called and asked permission before getting it and promptly left the yard I was somewhat bewildered at this uniform courtesy and sup posed it but a prelude to a general movement upon everything eatable in the morning It was not a grateful reflection that my beautiful mountain trout from twelve to twenty inches long sporting iu tbe spring would probably grace the rebel breakfast table that the blood ea caives in tne yara uesiae tnem would likely go with the trout and the dwarf had I felt assured abundant promise of relief from their golden burdens About 1 o'clock half a dozen officers the door and asked to have some coffee for them offering to pay liberally for it in Con federate scrip After concluding a treaty with them on behalf of the colored servants coffee was promised them and they then asked for a little bread with it They were wet and shiv ering and seeing a bright open wood fire in ttie library they asked permission to enter and warm themselves until their coflee should be ready assuring me that under no circum stances should anything iu the house be disturb ed by their men 1 had no alternative but to accept them as my guests until it should please them to depart andI did so with as good grace as possible HEARTS WARMED AND MOUTHS OPENED Once seated around the fire all reserve seemed to be forgotten on their part and they opened a general conversation on politics the war the different battles the merits of Generals in both armies ifcc They spoke with entire freedom upon every subject but their movement into Chambersburg Most of them were wen of more than ordinary intel ligence and culture and their demeanor was iu all respects eminently courteous I took a cup of coffee with them and have seldom seen any thing more keenly relished 'They said they had not tasted coflee for weeks before and then they had paid from $6 to $10 per pound for it When they were through they asked whether there was any coffee left and finding that there was some they proposed to bring some more officers and a few privates who were prostrated by exposure to get what they left They were of course as welcome as those present and on they came in squads of five or more until every grain of browned coffee was exhausted They then asked for tea and that was served to some twenty more ON THKIK GOOD BEHAVIOR In the meantime a subordinate officer had begged of me a little bread for himself and a few men and he was supplied in the kitchen He was followed by others in turn until nearly a hundred had been supplied with something to eat or drink All however politely asked permission to enter the house and behaved with entire propriety They did not make a single rude or profane remark even to the servants In the meantime the officers who had first entered the house had filled their pipes from the box of Killickinick on the man tle after being assured that smoking was not offensive and we had another hour of free talk on matters generally At four in the morning the welcome blast of the bugle was heard and they rose hur riedly to depart Thanking me for the hospita lity they had received we parted mutually ex pressing the hope that should we ever meet again it would be under more pleasant circum stances In a few minutes they were mounted and moved into Chambersburg About 7 I went into town and found that the first brigade under General Hampton had gone toward Gettysburg General Stuart sat on ids horse in the centre of the town surrounded by his staff and his command was coming in from the country in large squads leading their old horses and riding the new ones they had found in the stables hereabouts General Stuart is of medium size has a keen eye and wears im mense sandy whiskers and moustache Ilis demeanor to our people was that of a humane soldier Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune St Louis Oct 16 The troops now in this State will shortly en gage in an important enterprise
