THE LATEST WAR NEWS.

A reconnaissance in force was made yesterday
from the Potomac. Six regiments of Vermont,
together with three squadrOns of cavalry, and
three batteries Of artillery, went as far as o
hill overlooking Vienna. They saw no Sign Of
an enemy.
We have each day more encouraging news
from the expedition into Eastern Virginia. 1t
was thought by some that the rebels in
Northampton County would make stand;
but late intelligence declares that they, to the
number of 1,sOO, have laid down their arms,
and that the Union troops have now full pos
session of that county as well as of Accomac.
Reports were circulating in Baltimore yester-
day to the effect that our troops had met OPP
position. They were lies, invented by the Sc
cessionists Of that city.
The PiketOn battle, in Kentucky, the frat
accounts Of which may have been trfe exag-
gerated, was only less disastrous to the rebels
because they ran so early in the day, not
waiting to be cut in pieces The rout was
total, aud at the last accounts Gen. Nelson
was pushing on toward Cumberland Gap.
From Missouri we hear that Gen. Price has
abandoned his position at Cassye and is NOV
ing toward his old camp at NcOsho. The rebel
State Legislature, assembled at the latter
place, have passed an ordinance of Secession,
have united the State with the Southern Con-
federacy, and elected Gen. Rains to the rebel
| Congress. Four thousand rebel troops. chiefly
cavalry and Indians, we're at tie latest ac-
counts on the Kansas line west of Carthage,
with the design of ravaging that State.
Gen. Ealleck has given orders that no more
fugitive slaves shall be received within the lines
of lis army. and that those already there shall
be sent cut.

OUR CHARTER ELrcryov

The Taxpayers Union of our City has nom.
mated Mr.. Opdyke for Mayor. This wise and
just choice goes far toward securise hs elec.
ton. If our Citys Ninety Tboussad Voters
had each an important and difficult lswyuit on
hand, and were required to choose an srbitcY
or referee from among these three-(,eorge
Opdyke, c. Godfrey Gunther, and Persuade
Wood-we are sure that two.thirds Of item
would unhesitatingly select Geosge Opdyk..
If any one dstrusted the justice of his cause.
he would probably prefer to take his chance
with Fernando but lie would find few to fd.
low him unless they were in his predcamens.
la saying this, We iWply no disparagcment Of
Mr.. Guntber'S integrity nor of Woods ability.
Each of them possesses in part the qnali6ca-
tons which are combined in Mr. Opdyke; but
We want Mayor who is lacking in none.
We ask our heavy taxpayers and other prom.
Inent citizens to take lively interest 10 this
matter, for it vitality concerns them. Mr. Op-
dyke has served ia the Legislature: was no
ever even suspected of favoring a measure
~hereirom he was to derive pecuniary beneit7

scoundrels belief that he could have been

tics an objection to his support. Wood himself
dlssipated this pretext by supporting the Union
State Ticket at the late Election. The City
gave nearly Twenty Thousand majority for
Lucus Robinson and other wel-known Repub-
Leans over equally well-known Democrats 1t
was right it was noble to do SO, and nobody
claimed or understood that this vote implied o
Republican majority here. Nor will like
vote for Mr.. Opdyke be go claimed. Let our
Astors, Stuarts, Crosbys. Beekmans. and other
leading citizens Of conservative leaniDgs, adopt
and commend Mr.. Opdyke simply ss the ittest
the worttiest candidate for Mayor, and The ono
from whose administration most hope of re.
trenchnent aud reform may be entertained,
aud no one will claim bis election as party
triumph. The City needs such q man. and
the man has consented to serve her if elected.
Let all take hold in firm resolve that lie cen

the most causeless that the world ever saw.
And the demand that they shall concode, with
the bayonet at their tbroats, that their convic-
lions shall be oycfruled, and the policy they
reprobate shall be put in force by their ex-
torted consent, is no more nor less than q
proposition that the Republic shall be given up,
and Slaveholding Despotism established
in its stead. 1t would be too gross o
farce to 60 on electng Presidents and Members
of Congress after the result Of one election had
been overborne by the sword. The demand Of
this selfproclaimed rebel is, therefore, that
our free institutions shall be swept away, Civ.
ing place to the rule of the sword. The Jour
nal would have US consent. "No, never"

Journal Of Commerce assails him, accuses him
of " advocating universal plumber" &C., &C.,

tary Cameron Endorsed the Colonel's speech,
knowing perfectly well that he did. The Secre-
tary gets severe lashing over the ColoneTs
shoulders, but be can stand it. Tho Admins
tration is obliqueIy warned that it will lose the

nuYsNG EUROPEAN FAVOR.

The EreniHg Post regrets that our earnest
desire 10 avoid q collision with Great Britain
while our domestic troubles remain unsettled
had not led us to oppose the enactment oil tue
Morrill, Tariff. But We never proposed, even
for the sake of preserving tho good VIII OF
ENGLAND, to let her make our laws, or-what
i. the same thiDg--make them ourselves in sub
seryience to her dictates aud supposed interests
rather than our own. We fully recognize her
right 10 make her own fiscal regulat ons; she
nust accord us n like liberty. We never
favored the passage Of any act urder the i'm
pulse Of envy, jealousy or i'll viii toward any
other people, but it is our profound, mAtured
uudoubiing conviction that At is the interest of
our county and Of mankind that Agriculture
and Manuiac tures should flourish side by side
instead Of having an ocean and half continent
in,erposcd between them, whereby the bushel
Of Indian Corn for which the farmer receives but
ten or twslyo cents is made 10 cost the maker
Of bis cloths and wares q rouad dollar. We hold
this enormous discrepancy wastciul, pernicous,
uinous. and we mean 10 overcome il so fast
"a we may. To this end, we advocate policy
which tends 20 draw the manufacturer to the
price Of the farmer, whereby the former
receives moro corn for his cloth and tue
Inter far more cloth for his corn. We abyo-
cate this policy in tho permanent, uni'ersnl
interest If Labor and of Mau: il Great Britain
dislikes il, we must s.ill obey our own we'll
considered convictions. Nobody questions, our
right TO do 40; and IL would be hard indeed it.
while the Rebels are bOm6arding US on one
side for our fidelity TO our Anti-Slayery conyic-
tons, Great Britain should open upon us on
The other for our consistent adherence 20 our
views regarding Protection. But we have no
apprcheDsiOns Oh that side.
OF course, Circuit Britain aud France--that
is, their governing and trading classes-were
dispeased with tho Morrill, Teriil; but Why
Manifestly, because they attribute to it the
great falling of in our Imports OF their Metals,
Wares and Fabrics. This, as The Post well
knows, is but partially true our Imports
would have largely fallen off had there been no
change in our Tariff. But suppose they had
been Thirty or Forty Millions larger than they
have been, how should hare paid for them
Not in Cotton, Rice or Tobacco; for Of these
we have had and have none to spare. Not in
Grain, Meats, Butter, Cheese, &c, for of these
No have exported largely, and much lnrgcr
enux would have glutied their European mar
kete, increasing freights aud reducing prices.
For every dollars worth of extra Imports we
must have exported ninety cents in spcciei and
that would have soon brought our Banks to
their knees and driven our Government into
bankruptcy. This would have been worse, in
our judgment, than tho cold aud sour LOOKS
bestowed on us by England and the amorcus
leers she has directed toward the rebels. SO
We are thankful that we are as VIC are.

Opdyke. He stood as their candidate for tho
Mayoralty two years ago when the whoio
future Of the party in fact it' existence aimo't.
depended on having such a man as he IN thai
position. The raid Of John Brown had JUST
taken place. and the enemies OF the party were
taking advantage Of it to cover the Repuo'
licaus with popular odium. Mr.. Opdyke then
boldly came forth, and, BY the unpfecedenteay
brilliant and energetic canvass made under DIS
candidacy, carried the party with vast pre'''gs
and an efficient organization into the succeed
inc Presidential election. In that ALEC, his
services were eminently such as became
leading man in such struggle. AND we 10
not hesitate to ray that there is no person IN
the City Of New-York whom Republicans ought
to rally around on such an occasion as mo
