" The Memphis Bulletin of yesterday
on what it regards as truthworthy authority, the
substance of a despatch received at Holly Springs,
announcing the unconditional surrender of Mobilo
to oar gunboats. No dates aro given. The gun.
boats approached the city so close they could have
destroyed it without difficulty."

might be possible, by mutual arrangements, that the two
institutions should obtain advantages which at present
they did not possess. If they did unite for that purpose,
and there was really a prospect of effecting the object, he
should be most willing to give all the assistance he could in
promoting so worthy an object. (Applause.) With these
few observations, expressing his earnest wish that the asso-
ciation might live and be permanent, and productive of all
those benefits which its benevolent promoters desired, he
would conclude by calling on the mover of the first resolu-
tion.

"On Friday part of Forrest's force, about 1 000
strong, crossed the Tennessee river at Bite's Land-
ing in Perry Coanty,Tennessec. His whole force is
estimated to be 8,000, with 10 guns. Colonel
Campbell and garrison at Athens, Georgia, were
attacked by a large force of rebels, and after a
severe fight of two hours' duration were forced to
surrender. Several buildings, including the depot,
were set on fire. Forrest in person was in Athens
at two o'clock yesterday afternoon. A detachment
of 300 men sent from Decatur to reinforce the gar-
rison of Athens are reported to have been captured
after an obstinate engagement. Several prisoners
captured by Colonel Prosser near Athens report
that they crossed at Florence: that Forrest told
them he would have force enough to destroy both
railroads,and stay inTennessee as long as he pleased.
The rebel force has destroyed several miles of the
Tennessee and Alabama railroad between Decatur
and Athens. There is no communication with Pul•
aski, Tennessee. The escaped prisoner reports that
the rebel Sam Wheeler was at Courtland, Alabama,
yesterday morning, The rebels were under three
commanders, Forrest, Roddy,'and Blass. Wheeler's
force was reported to have gone South to join Hood
in Georgia, and it is Forrest's intention to capture
Pulaski, Franklin, and Shelbyville, and all the in-
termediate blockhouses on the road. At last accounts
the rebels were moving on Pulaski. No demonstra-
tion has been made on the Chattanooga Railroad. A
telegram from Pulaski reports heavy firing was heard
in the direction of Sulphur Branch, and the rebel
forces were operating against Elk River bridge. All
accounts agree that a large force is marching upon
our defences in this line, and proper means have
been taken to repel the rebels. Gen. Rousseau takes
the field today in person, and it is hoped that the
rebels will be forced to recross the river before he
gets through with them."
A St, Louis despatch of the same date gives parA
titulars of the invasion of Missouri by the Confede-
rates under Price. It states :

The Rev. C. T. WHITLEY, of Bedlington, moved the first
resolution. " That the objects of t orpeth Young Men's
Mutual Instruction Association, as indicatediby the circular
now real, tend to advance the intellectual improvement,
industrial progress, and moral and social elevation of the
youth of this place, and are, therefore, deserving of public
countenance and encourgement."

Mr. J. HOOD seconded the motion, which was carried.
Mr. R. BURDON SANDERSON moved the next resolution,
which was to the effect that it was desirable the rooms of the
associationshould be enlarged, and in order that funds might
be procured for that purpose the subscriptions of honorary
members were solicited.
Mr LAWRENCE seconded the motion, which was also
carried.

A vote of thanks to the chairman having been proposed
by the Rev. Dr ANDERSON, seconded by the Rev. W. AYRE
and carried by acclamation, the proceedings terminated.

" Joe Shelby's rebel cavalry are said to be 4.000
or 5,000 strong, and occupied Frederickstown, 20
miles east of Pilot Knob, yesterday. Shelby's de-
signs are not yet developed. General Ewing, cam•
mandant of the district of St. Louis, took a brigade
of A. J. Smith's troops down last night, and other.
wise prepared to meet the enemy. Pilot Knob is
well fortified and garrisoned. Cape Girardeau, on
the river, can stand a siege, and the only damage
the rebels can do is temporarily to cut the Iron
Mountain Railroad. When Price crossed the Arm
kansas River some days since, at least a part of his
forces moved towards Batesville, evidently with the
design of joining Shelby in North-Eastern Arkan.
sas, and with their combined commands invade Mis-
souri from the south-east. The force at Fredericks-
town is doubtless the advance of this column, which
is estimated to be 10,000 or 12,000 strong. General
Mower, with part of the 16th Corps, left
Brownsville, on the Daval's Bluff and Little Rock
Railroad, a few days since, going north, and Shelby
will soon have to look sharply after his rear. The
situation will probably develope itself in a very few
days."

Further despatches from the same quarter state—

"It is now said that Price has entered Missouri
with fortes estimated at 30,000 strong. His plan
is supposed to be to march to the central part of the
State with three columns, and, capturing all the
important points, hold the country. It is expected
that Kirby Smith will join him with from 10,000 to
12,000 men. The Arkansas guerillas are also con•
centrating to aid in the movement of the column
now in the south-east, doubtless under Shelby, who
has some 6 000 or 9,000 men. Reports are circu-
lating tonight that part of the force which occu+
pied Fredericktown yesterday captured Cape Girar-
dean to-day, but they are very doubtful. The enemy
may be demonstrating in that direction, but the post
is too strong to be taken by cavalry. Military
preparations here are very active, and troops are
already moving southward. The blacksmiths' shops
have been very busy all day shoeing cavalry horses.
Ordnance and ammunition are being sent to dif•
ferent points. Everything is being put into fine
condition for immediate active service. Brigadier-
General Pike has called out the enrolled militia.
General Rosencrans will issue an appealito-morrow,
calling the people to arms. Major. General Blair
arrived here to-day. The trains are still running
on the Iron Mountain railroad, which so far as is
known, has not yet been molested."
The Washington correspondence of the World
contains the following, dated Sept. 26 ;

"I can announce, I think, without fear of being
contradicted, that Mr. Lincoln is now trying to do
what he has hitherto failed to accomplish, which
is to effect harmony in his Cabinet, and to obtain
thereby a control which he has not yet been able
to exercise. The men who, by their independence
of character and their spirit of combativeness
such as Mr. Chase and Mr. Blair, stood in the way
of the fulfilment of his plans, have either been re-
moved or received the cold shoulder. Those who
are still in his way will soon share the same fate.
Among the latter I hear mentioned the name of
Mr. Stanton, now the only man in the Cabinet who
dares to raise his voice against Mr Lincoln's wishes.
All the others have yielded and are merely tools in
his hands. Since the departure of Messrs Chase
and Blair, the unfortunate Secretary of War is
alone in the opposition to the President, and has the
greatest trouble to make a decent figure in presence
of the crushing majority which the union of all his
colleagues and the preponderating weight of Mr
Lincoln's influence carry against him. In all pro•
bability he will resign his seat before long, or receive,
as Mr Blair did, the order to leave. That his

time has come.' The man whom the voice of the

Radicals, into whose hands Mr. Lincoln has fallen,
points out as his successor in General Banks. The
General is said to be on his way now, with the
promise of receiving Mr Stanton's position imme-
diately after the October elections, if they prove
favourable to Mr Lincoln. In this way the latter
expects to have on his side the majority of the
Massachusetts politicians, and of the Abolitionists
who have until this day looked upon him with die.
trust. This shows you from what point the wind
blows, and gives you an inside view of the future
policy of Mr Lincoln's administration for the next
four years, should he be allowed to run another
term."

The same correspondent states—" The country
may soon expect to hear of a naval attack upon
Wilmington, North Carolina. The fleets are gather.'
ing and the land force is in readiness. Secretary
Welles, as usual, is behindhand, and wished to delay
the attack until all his ships were in readiness,
which would not be before November, but Mr Lin-
coln's orders were imperative that it should take
place before the election in order to have its effect
upon the canvass for the presidency.

DIE MATLOCK WILL CASE AGAIN.—We are 414
formed on pretty good authority that there is an•
other movement on foot for the reopening of this notorious
case. A firm in Manchester, it is said, have taken the mat-
ter in hand, and are endeavouring to institute new proceed•
ings on the ground of the documents which were discovered
so mysteriously at the recent sale of Mr Else's furniture, It
is stated that notices have already been served upon the
tenants to withhold the rents from the parties into whose
hands they would fall by virtue of the decision in the House
Of Lords.—Derby paper.

[ADVERTISEMENT.]—HoIIoway's Pills. Counsel and
Comfort.—A disordered stomach throws the whole system
out of gear, and renders us unfitted both for work and
amusement. A few does of these strengthening and purify-
irg pills taken, according to their accompanying directions,
will, however, speedily restore order and re-enable the
stomach to digest its food without difficulty. These excel-
lent pills are suitable alike for the peer and the peasant, the
soldier and sailor, and particularly for women and foreign
colonists. Holloway's pills are very useful in checking
feverish attacks, bilious complaint?, and inflammation.
They have also made the most signal cures in cases of
dropsy, and diseases of the heart and lungs, when the suf-
ferers seemed past the reach Qi medicine.
