An Unsuccessful Movement OF the
Rebels.

The Richmond Examiner Of the 9th inst.
says:
"a few days ago. Col. Albert Rust,
commanding one of the regiments from
Arkansas and now stationed at Monterey,
proposed to execute most daring feat,
which, but for untoward circumstances,
would doubtless have proved successful
and stamped him hero. Calling for vol
unteers for his enterprise. he accepted the
services or eleven hundred men, and with
two days rations. and stripped of all su-
perfluous clothing and accoutrements, he
took a circuitous trail. intending and ex-
pecting it to bring him out in the rear Of
the enemy at Cheat Mountain. His plan
was, SO soon as they hove in sight of their
camps, to fire but Que round from their
guns and then to close with the foe and
al Jackson was to ca. operate with him bv
menacing and attacking the enemy in
front so soon as Rust should develop his
arrival in the rear by firing. Unfortu-
Dately for the success Of the enterprise. the
trail had not been previously explored, :,
and, instead of carrying Col. Rust to the
enemy's camp, took him six miles behind
it, in direction which rendered it iAac-
cessiblc. leaving them no other resource
but to execute an immediate retreat. SO
confidently was success counted on,
that Gen Jackson drove In the enemy's
pickeis, and waited nearly a half day for

Last Thursday was observed in many

ance TO spout red-hot Abolitionism. devoid
of the least spark Of patriotism. OF the
latter class, the Rev. L. NJ EDDY, editor
of the y. w. Christian Advocate. was
about as good specimen as We can now
think Of After delivering himself of the
abolitionism burning within Linn, he got
off the following barbarous sentiment,
amid the cheers Of the audience:
Others speak Of compromise. "a voice

If such compromise was carried out
by the North, OF course the South would
retaIiate and hang every Federal soldier,
and possibly every Union man they could
get hold Of. The South took about ! 200
prisoners at the Bull Run disaster. II the
christian spirit of the Rev. r. NJ EDDY had
actnated them. and his compromise been
carried out. the ], 200 prisoners would
have been hung. instead Of being we'll car

Of Col. MuLLGAN and his command Of
$500, would have furnished the rebels n
fine opportunity to carry out the Rev. gen
teman's compromise. Such apolcy. aside
from its barbari.y. would have been more
favorable 20 the South, so far, than the
North man who would utter such a
sentiment should be impressed into the
ranks, SO that when the enemy carried out
his policy. they could have a chance oi

the prominent Democrats in this county,
l am fully convinced that if the CAUSE Of
all this trouble was removed, there would
be bu! one voice as to the war in this To-
cality.
The Personal Liberty Bills that still
stand on the statutes of eight of the Nor
thern States, are the cause, and if the
Administrator and the Governors of those
States will bring their influence and power
to bear on this point, and cause these un-
constitutional laws TO be erased from their
statutes. and the Southern States still re.
fuse 10 pay allegiance to the Federal Gov.
ernment, then the North would rise up
as one man and speedily crush out the re-
bellion. But men who have ever contend.
ed and conscientiously believe tha: those
Personal Liberty Bills were both uncon-
stitutional and unjus will not willingly
fight for their maintenance and the subju-
cation Of the South
If those Bills were done away with.
there would a Union party rise up in the
South. that, aided by the united forces Of
the North, would speedily bring our
troubles to close, and place the Govern
ment on a firm basis.
These believe to be. in brief, the sen.
timents and feelings of nipty-nine Demo-

Let the cause be removed, never TO BE-
