NASHVILLE, NOV. A speclm dlspalcl to tue New York Tribune from Washington on the 2sth say, that Gen. Scott will voluntarily retire from his rank and duties within ten days, solely on account of physical inGrmites, and under an act of Con gress, will continue to draw his pay. Jeff. Davis, when secretary of war, overhauiei a long standing account of Scotts with the government and brought him largely in debt. Cameron has recently recast the account and ascertains that Scott has never oyerdrawn.

FROM the Charleston Mercury, l4th.
Yesterday the Yankee prisoners of war, who
had been expected on Thursday, reached the
city at an hour when most Of our citizens
were probably still slumbering in their beds.
The arrangements for their reception. which
had been made by Col. Branch, commanding
the military, were carried out quietly, and in
the most satisfactory manner. The privates
are nearly all from Michigan, Massachusetts
and New York. A Richmond paper had.men.
toned these prisoners as having been "select.
ed chiefly FROM among those who had eviuced
the most insolent and insubordinate disposi.
hon,' but their department yesterday was
generally as orderly as could be desired They
all wear their uniforms, although some of these
are in somewhat dilapidated condition. The
officers have trunks, but the men are encum-
bered by no superfluous bagga G. Some of
the officers, including Corcoran, are not vet
wholly recovered from their wounds. They
are generally abundantly provided with money
(erecie,) and were very solicitous to be allowed
TO hire a cook to prepare their meals We
learn that instead OF the usual coarse prison
fare, they will be served with good substantial
rations from The commissary department.
hen they first arrived they were generally
taciturn, but during the day became communi-
cauve, III some instances even luquacious We
may mention that they evnced holy horror
lol the newspaper repOrterS---tle very natural
consequences OF their experience with the re.
representatives. Of the unprnciped press of the
north. Their views with regard to their
probable treatment here were various. Some
OF them imagined that they were to be placed
Immediately in irons, willie Others Especially
the officers abored under the fond hallucina
ton that they were TO be liberated on parole.
Many OF them busted themselves with devisinp
propositions TO communicate by letter TO their
friends. The plan most popular among them
seemed to be to have their packages of letters
sent out to the blockading fleet under u flag
Of truce.
The prisoners will remain in the iail until
uext Tuesda%, by which time, it is expected.
Castle PiHckney will be ready Tor their recep
ton. Meantime the Zouaves will continue to
perform the necessary guard duty No one
excepting the guards was yesterday permitted
to see the prisoners. A more suitable custo
dian than Capt. Boag could scarcely have been
selected While he will in no case be nnne-
e;essariy harsh, he possesses IN an eminent
degree the lirmness necessary to enforce
proper discipline among the captive Yankees

THE spRINGFiE ED REPUBLICAN.

The singularly erratic course OF this journal,
while it surprises both its friends and enemies,
renders its discomfort of less importance TO
either lis morning grumbe OF the III inst
hits right and left with a charming inconsis-
iency. Assuming to know more OF the Scr
and Everett party than its own convention, 1t
declares that their first choice for lieutenant
governor last year was not member OF thelr
party We shall expect soon to see placard
on the editors Office door, "For Bell and Ever
EFT men apply within
There is significant paragraph, however,
ia regard to tbs very Office in the ''grumble,"
which possibly lifts up "the muifler" and shows
the 'phid" Chester w. Chaplin is no Falstaff
indeed but citizen of Springfield, of the
highest responsibility, and the devoted and
energetic president of the Western railroad.
That he was a candidate for the office of lieut.
governor, will, we think, he new to most
members OF the convention, although it may
mot be so to the Rep blcan nor to the direc-
tor of the Western railroad, who was in the
uumina ing committee. The " Worcester

anxiety to keep Dwight Foster on the ticket"

tcrcst 10 keep Mir. Chaplin off +" Nothing but
Western railroad magni(ying glasses, sharp
cned by the quality which makes ole rogue
thp best detective for another, could ever have
discovered The Worcester railroad interest"
in the convention.
1t is not surprising nor do we charge it, to
the discrcdit of the Republican, that, consist
enl as the Western railroad is with the inter
est of Springfield, that journal should put on
these spectaces, but there is just reason to
complain that it should blind itself TO the gen
eruus, patriotic, and self sacrificing spirit man
Tested by It's old friends Those friends, who
'not up to the comprehension OF the epoch

venture TO say, so far as Mr.. Foster Is con-
cerued, that not man in the convention who
advocated Judge Abbotts nomination, would
not have preferred-we say it not in dispar.
agement OF any other state officer, to have
omitted ANY other name on the ticket
except The governor. They were not
friends Of Judge Abbott, they were of
Mr. Foster. The action OF the convention
in refusing 10 nominate Mr.. rockingham
in accordance with the Recommendation OF
the committee, called upon them suddenly
10 determine whether they would abandon the
policy which no one has advocated more
earnestly than the Springfield Republican, o
give up to personal regard 10 Mr.. Foster villa
the interest OF tue whole country seeme9 In g
ognilon OF the patriotism of former oppo
nens. No man who knew Mr.. Foster woulL
hesitate as to his wishes upon such a question
and his own magnaninous conduct, which has
opened TO him the future eminence belonging
t. his merits, shows that he was above the
Springfield "grumble."
But enough Of the Republican. We. will
hope Tor better feeling when The interests of
the state shall be better understood and more
regarded.

To the Editor of the Boston rnai:-Will
you, my dear sir, pray let it be known that
those who enlist in any new divisions or
"Batteries for Divisions" or National Coast
Bripades," or Coast Guards, or Cavalry
for Divisions" or "Mounted Rifemen," are
connecting themselves with mere paper organ
izations, are not recognized by Massachusetts,
and that their families cannot expect aid from
this state?
AS recruiting of1icerin chief for Massachu,
sets, am authorized only to allow and sane
ton enlistments fol- Colonies Wilson's, Jones's,
Steyenson's, Upton's, and Lees regiments,
the cavalry regiment, one company of sharp
shooters (now at Lynnfied,) the fourth and
fifth light batteries, and the two Irish regi-
ments, respectively commanded by Col. Thos.
S. Murphy and Col Matthew Murphy. | can
approve of or recognize no other regiments or
corps You can hardly think, my dear sir,
how grossly recruits are imposed upon. There
is scarcely hamlet in the commonwealth
where you shall not find some person who is
enlisting men for II regiment, not even nomi-
nal, which has neither a local habitation nor a
name, either in this state OF in any other.
Will you not, sir, aid me in disabusing too
credulous minds OF an erroneous impression,
promulgated by designing men, and informing
recruits that when i'll doubt about en-
listing, their doubt will be solved by calling
on me, and that | will cheeriully take them

turers. can always be found at the general

Very respectfully, yours,

Brigadier General, LIST Brigade, LIST Division
NJ V. NJ and Recruiting Officer-in Chief for
the State OF Massachusetts.
p. S. May ask you to publish the follow
ing note from the Adjutant General.
ADJUTANT GENERALS OFFICE,
Boston, Oct. 2, 1861
Brqadier General Bullock Sir: |, is repre-,
scented at headquarters that persons in this
commonwealth are recruiting men for military
service who have not been authorized to do
so. General Order No % states explicitly
which regiments and companies are set apart
to be recruited. Recruiting for other regi-
ments and companies is detrimental to the
public service, and cannot receive the APPROX
al of his eXceIlency the commander-in-chief.
The families of members enlisted in compa-
mics which are not designated in General Or
del No. D. can receive none OF the benefits
from the reiiet fund provided for by law. You
will cause public notice TO be given of these
facts, so that persons who now recruiting
without proper authority, may cease to do so,
and that honest and patriotic men may not be
cheated and dipped. WIN. SCHoULER,
Adjutant General.

Souru CARoLlNA.-The National Intel
pcncer gives an account OF an interview with
a gentleman from Charleston, S. c., who left
that city for Washington on the Nth ult. He
relates that business OF every description was
dull and almost suspended. The stores on
Meeting and King streets close at two O'Clock,
so that the proprittors and clerks may attend
drill. Every man is required to do military
duty Even Gov. Aiken is private in the
Brooks Guard No dry goods have been re-
ceived there for long time, and the blockade
appears to be etfectua. No vessels arrive or
deyart, except few little schooners which
hug along the shore. Hay sells for So so per
hundred weight, and butter Tor sixty cents
pound. The railroad does but little business
few passengers and no freight. The hotels
are almost entirely deserted. No soldiers are
allowed 10 remain within the city of Charles
ton, nasmuch as the home guard is to do duty
there There are no Notifications about the
city, but upon the battery there are few can.

have been ordered away from Sulivans ISL

down lest the "Yankees" should use them
when they take Charleston. Every part of
the island is being fortified, and a large num-
Der of soldiers are now at work there throw

The citizens Of Holden had their second ag-
ricultural and industrial exhibition ON Thurs
day, Oct 3. This was the first year of their
exhibition Of cattle, their show of last year
consisting mainly of horticultural products,
Their show of this year was fine one in ey.
cry respect, rejecting great credit upon the
enterprising farmers and mechanics of that
wide awake town. 1t was good to look upon
so varied display of fine animals in a mere
town show. The show Of fruit was very cred
liable, considering the season, and thar of veg
etables particularly fine. There was a trial of
working oxen and draft horses at 10 O'Clock in
the forenoon, aud an exhibition of horses at II
constituting an extensive display. There was
a large attendance OF citizens of that and the
adjoining towns.
AT O'Clock procession was formed upou
the common, under the chief marshalsbip of
Col. j. S. Holt, accompanied by the Holden
Cornet Band, and marched to the hotel of d.
f. Parmenter, Esq, where dinner was pro-
vided in his best style. Divine grace was in
v0ked by Rev. Elnathan Davis of Fitchbure.
After dinner the company repaired to the Con-
gregational church, where, after remarks from
Col. Holt, an address was delivered by Rev.
Mr.. Davis, on the value of the agricultural in
tesest, and the importance of its thorough tul-
tvation, above all the other prof ssions in life,
in its relation to the welfare Of any communi.

tai and without stain of cloud and so in this
great house not made with hands the young
pair stood up leaves quivering above their
heads, the grass, hardly dry OF dew, under
their feet and innumerabe flowers in the near
garden filling the air with fragrance
About the middle OF the afternoon, after the
wedding feast, the new married pair set out
upon their bridal tour; not IN the steamboat
or railroad car, but with horse and chaise-lhe
gift OF the brde's tather-lrUtiug off tor the
winding roads OF the Highlands OF the Ilud-

to return after few weeks to the town of
Norwich, in the Chenango Valley OF this state,
where the bridegroom the Rev. Samuel SEQ
vile, has lately been called as IL Congregations
al minister.
This journey was begun under good aus
pieces for according to the Irish custom TO
secure good luck, two OF the party had pro
vided themselves each with an old Shoe and
as the carriage started, the shoes were thrown
after them with Il good will, one falling just
behind while the other, yaultlng over the top,
pumped fairly within the carriage = thus
bringing down upon the fortunate pair all the
blessings external and internal, which can
possibly be supposed to reside in Old shoes.
As another of our special contributors was the
thrower Of one OF these tokens, we need not
say that it is luck enough for the young lady
to stand i'll Mrs. Stoves old shoes.

RHODE IsLAND.-The state military com
Mittee OF Rhode Island, of which Governor
Sprague is chairman, have adopted a compre.
hensiye and excellent plan for organizing the
reserve forces of the state, and rendering them
seryiceable wherever they may be required
They have directed that every town and city
in the state should Immediately organize one or
more military companies of not less than sixty
four men, nor more than one hundred each, to
be called the NATIONAL GUARD of Rhode
Island. The drill of the companies will be
strictly the United States infantry tactics, as
promulgated by the secretary OF war IN May
last. Their uniform will consist of blue
army cap, dark blue tunic, and light blue
pants. This volunteer organization" says
circular of The committee, "will be the school
of the citizen soldier. 1t generates military
spirit at home and abroad SO that should the
occasion cali upon us to defend our own soil !;
or, as is more probable, should any of us wish
to enlist with the noble band who have gone
forth to MEET the foes Of our country, we shall
find ourselves ready"
