long advocating the cause Of the party to
which the rebels we're formerly connected,
and, like docile slave, accustomed to yield
obedience to its prouptings throughout
its various gyrations, that since the South

Rebel Professions and Practice.

A correspondent Of the N. o. PicAyne,
writing from Manassas Junction, has the
following in relation to the position of the
COnfederstes
There is not a single act OF the Confederate
States that could be so construed as to Justify
any reasonable man in coming to the conclu-
sion that the South intended to take Washing
ton. We have never claimed more than is em-
braced in the boundaries of the seeded States
That is the whole extent of our claim. Wash
ington is situated in that part of the Dis.
trict OF Columbia transferred by Maryland,
and just so long as Maryland remains
with the North, just so long will we refrain
from any attack.
Mr.. Walker, JEFF. Davis Secretary of
War, who is likely to be as we'll informed
as the Picayune's correspondent, stated in
public speech at Montgomery, the day af-
ter the fall of Sumter, that the Confederate
fVg would be waving over Washington in
thirty days. MIR. Stephens, the rebels
Vice President, and hundreds of secession
papers, flushed with their success at Sum-
ter, made similar statements; and there is
not particle of doubt that the Confederate
leaders expected 20 make triumphal
march to the Capital, and had they exhibi-
ted little more energy we have no doubt
they could have taken the city before the
arrival If any of the Federal volunteers.
The assertion OF the correspondent, that
the rebels never claimed any more than is
embraced in the boundaries of the seeded
States, is fatty COntradicted by their inva-
sion of Missouri and Kentucky, and by the
late act of the Confederate Congress pro-
vidng for the enrolling and organizing OF
volunteers in all the border States.

THE NEWS.

10 our columns to day, will be found the
very full summary Of news from our "'Ex-
ira" Of yesterday evening. The dates from
the seat Of war are to the 10th inst, four
days later than by the previous Pony. By
o note from the operator, at the outer eta
tiOn on the eastern side, it appears that tel
egraphic communication had been re.es-
tablished jnst as the Pony passed the sta.
ton, on the l4th, but be had no time TO
make up summary of news. One dis
patch from Leavenworth, is dated on the
l4th, but with that exception there is nothing
later than the 10th. Had anything of i'm
pOrtance happened between the 10th aud
14th-such as a decisive battle, or the cap.
ture of Washington-the fact would doubt
less have been announced.
1t cannot be denied that the intelligence is
Of gloomy character. The rebel outposts
are inconveniently near Washington, and
the fate of the city, to all appearances, de-
pends upon the success of the Federal
troops at every point where an attack can
be made. Even should an attack upon the
defenses on the Virginia side of the POto'
mac be unsuccessful, the forces under
Johnston may cross the river at some point
higher up, and attack the city from the
Maryland side. We have, however, no in-
formation as to the position and numbers
Of the Federal troops aud it may be the
Government authorities are better prepared
to resist attacks than we give them credit
for. Possibly the division under General
Banks may be large enough to successfully
oppose Johnston, and Banks may possibly
be great military genius, capable of COM
manding large army without first having
learned the art of war.
The reports, heretofore received, that
Rosencreuz's column was hemmed up 10 a
mountain gorge. and in danger of being
cut off, appears to have had no foundation.
lie left bis camp on the 7th inst, and cross
ed the mountains iu force. The rebels
we're reported few miles beyond, on the
morning of the 9th, and it was expected
that battle would soon take place.
We have no intelligence from southwest
ern Missouri, but the re-Opening of tele.
graphic communication through the State,
indicates that vigorous measures have been
adopted to disperse the marauding parties.
The efforts Of the Kentucky authorities
to maintain q neutral position have entirely
failed. The opposing forces are coucen-
tratiDg in the western portion of the State,
where 9 battle will probably soon take
place.

SATURDAY EVENING, SEPT. 2l, 1861.

Broke DowN.-TOm Rooney, who under
took to ride 210 miles over the YOlO
Course. on Thursday last, in ten hours, for
a purse of $1,000, broke down after going
132 miles. AT the time Of quitting, be had
gained seven miles over twenty-one miles
an hour, and the reasons assigned for not
continuing, were, that he had not sufH-
cient number of horses, aud that he had
drank too freely. 1t was the opinion Of
those present that be would have accom-
plished the feat with larger number OF
horses, Che bad seventeen.) and with the
exercise of little more discretion in the
use of stimulating drinks.

The Union, of yesterday, publishes cor
respondence between Gov. Downey and
Gen. Sumner, by which 1t appears that the
Governor came forward promptly, and Of
fered to pay the expenses of fitting out vol
unteers, aud their transportation to the
regimcntal camps-the cost to be refunded
to the State by the Government. This pa
triotic offer was declined, for the reason
that there was no necessity of the State
masking any provision for the volunteers,
the means furnished by the Government
being amply sufficient for that purpose.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-09-21

The GREAT BATTLE.-Tbe best and most
popular narrative of the battle ut Bull Run,
yet published in this State, is that writtcn
by Geo Wilkes, of the New York Spirit of
the Times. We learn from the New York
Police Gazette, that Wilkes has since pub
lished, in pamphlet form, clear, connect
ed, and interesting narrative of the engage
ment, giving many particulars not included
iu bis first report.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-09-21

MINING VERSUS FARMING.-The gold crop
of Australia has declined from $62, 5000 in
1854, to $4O,OOO,OOO in 1861 though the miners
have increased from $4,000 in the frft named
year to 100000 in the last. Their average
earnings have declined in the six years from
81 $50 to $S270, showing that the gold fields are
being rapidly exhausted. California is much
richer in gold than Australia; but there is a
decline in both countries, and perhaps it is well
for the permanent good of each country. The
search for gold fevers the mind almost equally
with gambling, and its rapid production initiates
all manner of vain hopes, and wild, baseless
speculations. The sober and slow pursuits Of
ordinary industry are more healthful for the in
dividual as for the community, and are sOlidy
enrich;ng. The Melborne Argus confesses this,
in stating, that the Colonies are now far more
prosperous than in the height of the gold pro-
duction. The former miners, in vast numbers,
have turned to sheep raising, and to various
agricultural and industrial employment.
The Nevada Democrat., 1861-09-21

STATE FAR.-Accordng to the Sacra-
Dento papers, the attendance at the State
Fair, this season, is greater than on any
former occasion. The receipts at the Fair
grounds have averaged nearly So, 900 daily.
The subject of continuing the Fair over
until next week has been under discussion
by the officers OF the Society.

The Nevada Democrat., 1861-09-21

The dispatches by the last Pony make
no mention of the rumored death Of JEFF.
Davis, from which we conclude there was
no truth in the report. 1t probably origi-
mated from the fact that he had latterly
been quite sick. The letters of st. Louis
correspondents, ifany are received by this
Pony, will set the matter at rest.

BLASTING ACCIDEET.-TwO brothers nam
I'd Myers were severe ly injured on Monday
