GEN. PoPE's PLAN A correspon-
dent of the Cincinnati Gazette, writ
ing from ST Louis, says:
The recent measures adopted by
Gen. Pope to insure tranquility in
the northern counties of the State are
working admirably. In every quar-
ter one or more rank secessicnists
have been placed upon the commit
tees of Safety, greatly against their
will They flock to the General to
assure him of their inability to pre-
serve the peace, and beg that they
may be released from so o1erous a
duty but he invariably refuses TO
comply with their request, and tells
them that if they are not familiar
with the plottings of the traitors
in their immediate localities, he desir-
es them to make themselves so at
once. If yon will dance, gentlemen, ,
he says, you must pay the fiddler !;
and / can promise you the music shall
be expensive These committees,
you know, are held responsible for all
property destroyed by the rebels /;
that is, where they do not make every
effort to suppress any outbreak and
quell all unlawful proceedings.

general, and large numbers of citizens
are going on patrol tonight.

The Revival of Business.

We recently referred to the numer-
Gus indications of the revival of bust
In ess Which are becoming perceptibie,
and the developments of each day
tend to strengthen the correctness OF
the opinions we then expressed. With
the-agricultural interests of our coun-
try in prosperous condition, and
+. with many branches of manufactures
aourishing, the business Of the mer-
chants, who are the agents for the
distribution and exchange of the pro-
duets of our own and other countries,
must revive. The readiness with
which subscriptions are being made
to the national loan indicate clearly
that. no matter how severe may be
orr present trials, the national credit
will he preserved untarn.shed, and
while this is secure, the treasury notes
and bonds issued by the Governm~ MT
will, by increasing the available circu-
lating medium, stimulate business ac-
tiyity. It may be that q debt will be
contracted which the present genera
ton will be unable to liqpidate, and
which will be entailed as burden
upon posterity. But this, consider
ing the objects OF the present contest,
will not be unjust to future genera
tions, because we are battling now
not only for ourselves bnt those who
are to come after MS; and. If we sue
ceed in crushing the infamous con
spiracy against free in2titions, they
can well afford to pay a slight financial
tribute for The political blessings we
are striving 10 transmit unimpaired to
them. Our own Revolution left as
legacy to the American people a
de'd Of ONE seventy millions Of dol
lars, which, considering the ropula-
tion Of cur country at that time, and
the inferiority of its resources and
wealth, was probably quite as burden
some to our ancestors as q debt OF
fifteen hundred millions of dollars
would he to our posterity Yet it
was all honorably discharged, and
caused no very serious Inconvenience
to the nation.

Good Advice for the Times.

Some persons seem 10 think they
must hoard up every cent they can
get bold of, in order to provide for
hard times, and we learn lessons on all
sides about economy. This is most
mistaken policy In fact it is the
most certain way to bring about the
very evils they fear. The suspension
of all enterprises leaves the laboring
people without the means of support,
and the result is the prostration of
every branch of business. Every maB
who has the means should preserve in
his projects of Improvements which
promise to be productive. Men will
sill wsnt houses to live in, bread TO
eat and clothes TO wear, The far
mers need not therefore hesitate to
purchase fertilizers, to raise stock,
and to put mp such buildings as are
necessary. Those who have wealth
shonld live rs heretofore, and men
generally should remember that there
is such thing ms heing penny wise

Persons of mcanssshould remember

penses. In short. if improvements
are needed, now ia the time 10 make
them. Those having means should re-

THE New STATE OF VIRGINIA. -
The meaning of the determination of
Of the Wheeling Convention to submit
the question of forming Western Va. F.,
into new State is that the people
there are determined to go with the
North in any event. II, BY the end
Of October, the Union armies have
so far trinmphed as to render the sub
jugation of the South a certainty,
they will vote to retain the old name
and the boundaries of the Old Domin-
ion-otherwise Kanawha will stand

Let the Peace Advocates
Preach to the Traitors.

The So called advocates of peace"
in the North have entirely mistaken
the section of country in which they
should disseminate peace doctrines
IF their is q fault in tic Northern
character at all, it IS that it loves
peace not too little bat too well, and
is disposed to concede und yield even
to the verge Of dishonor rather than
to resort to the lastrefugc Of an in
iured end insultcd natitn, an 0ppeal
TO arms. But there never was
country plunged into wer with so
little to justify hostilities with such
IN utter absense Of real grievances,
and with such wicked horrible and
destructive results staring it in the
face, as the Secession district Of the
South there was never q people
nor a country to which peace doc.
trines could he more appropriately,
properly, forcibly, and Justly address
ed, thar the men who have sustained
the insurgents. BY persisting in their
mad rebellion against the Republic
they have nothing to gain and every
thing to lose. They are under the
control of leaders who have tarnish-
ed q cause, unholy and Infamous in
itself, by innumerable deeds of base
ness and wickedness. They are seek
ing to destroy forever tie cause Of
free government, and to ruin their own
happiness and prosperity, even while
they whelm in destruction the best
interests Of their fellow country men
and of the lovers Of freedom through
out the world Let the preachers
Of peace seek to enlighsen the wicked
and misguided supporters Of the re-
bellion, and incline theis hearts, If
they can, to asdiscontinuance Of their
present traitorous movements. But,
on the other hand, there never was q
people with whom war for the life of
nation, for the cause of free govern
ment, for the welfare of thirty mill
ions Of living inhabitants, and of I'M
numbered generations yet unborn,
was more of a holy necessity than the
war in which the loyal citizens of this
land are now engaged, and those who
seek to palsy their arm, raised in
righteous self-defence, in the hope
that they may thus render aid and
comfort to the most infamouse con-
spiracy that was never commenced,
are not only traitors to their country
but enemies of mankind.

SICKNESS AT MANASSAS. The New
Orleans Pac0yNne intimates that there
is excessive sickness among the Con-
federate troops at Manassas It says:
The atmosphere is impregnated with
all kinds of impurities, arising from
the battle field and camp. The fptid
odors proceeding from the decaying
bodies of men and beasts, and the
ofal and filth of camp, are enough to
produce fevers and epidemics. He
who has never visited q fresh battle
field and camp on O grand scale, can
never imagine the immense amount of
decaying matter scattered about.
This putrid mass, exposed to the burn
ing heats of August and September.
must have a deleterious effect upon
the health of the soldier. The filth
at Manassas is beyond conception.
No one seems to consider what win
be the result from its accumulation
and decomposition. The soldier talks
over his battles, and looks forward for
other victories. Death is disregarded
and human corpse regarded scarcely
more than that of dumb beast.

Heenan ana the Champion Belt

I
Jim Mace, who recently whipped
the Staleybridge Infant, has replied
to Heenan's challenge, and signifies
bis readiness to fight He 81 ready
to make match for f200 to $500
per side, either before or after his
coming fight with King. The mat
ter, as far as the American Cham
pion" is concerned, is in the hands of
his friend, George Wilkes, and it is
said by him that he expects soon to
be able to announce Heenan's assent
to the propositions Of Mace, and the
arrangement Of the preliminaries.
Heenan challenged any man in Eng
land for $4,000, or $40 900, but Mace
does not seem willing to accept so
large stake, and accuses Heenan of
bouncing. Heenan wants his expens-
es paid, If he fights in England, or will
pay Mace's, if he comes to America.
Mace says: "Itis rule of the Eng
lish Prizs Ring that the champion
belt cannot be fought for ont of the
United Kingd ON. = The Match is in
q fair way Of being made up, and it
is believed by sporting gentlemen that
before the winter is over, Heenan and
Mace will have fought for and decided
the ownership of the belt "
