SECESSION IN "UNcLE SANS" ARMY.
AT the Chambers Of the Common Pleas
there has lately been quite number of dis
charges on haJcas corpus, theappicants most
ly hailing from Governors Island aud the va
rous cnlisting Offices The plea on which
these military bantlings generally rely is in
fancy. They make their appearance in court
arrayel in all the paraphcrnaia of their I'm
Gle attractive costume, some with heavy
beard upon their faces, and feeling that their
dreams of glory on the tented field are too
soon to be realized, they ask the court to ex-
cuSe them on the plea that they arc infants,
though they have been weancd for some years
back. 1t is very likely that they can discern
tho signs Of the times and feel thankful that
the wisdom which is denied to those high in
authority is granted to babes and sucklings
AT all events, they are noR far beyond the
reach of secession armoments. 1t would de-
light the mcst confirmed misanthopc to see
with what joyful ebullition of feeling these
children hail the magic dctum of the Judge
which again delivers them to the arms of
their mammas.- ~. K.lIost.

DEAD MAN-novER THE LEFT

The following paragraph appeared in the Baton
Rouge Sugar Planter of the 2d-last Saturday:
We regret to learn that Hon. James Beggs died
in New Orleans one day this week. As Mr.. Bcggs
has long occupied prominent position in that
city, we astonished that public notice of his
death was made by the city press Poor Jim! we
knew him well u better or a nober heart never
throbbed. 80
Mr.. Beggs called upon US yesterday, and assured
us positively that he wasn't dead. He acted like a
live man walked like live man. talked louder
than corpses usually talk; spoke of thrashing a
certain saccharine editor we wot Of for killing him
off without telling him anything abont it--and,
finally, pitched into Talk on Change and con
vinced him. by arithmetieal process, that he, the
aforesaid Beggs, was not only alive, but powerful
in lungs and active in pedal extFemities1 When
Talk cayed, the editorial room gin n,' and
the verdict was unanimously rendered that Beggs
still lived-or, to use the Websterian expression,
got up by Artemus Ward" amt dead yit, by a
long shot"
Mr.. B. requests us to thank the Sugar Planter for
his sweet remembranCes.

scoTTs CAVALRY REGIMENT.


The following notice of this magnificent regiment
Of mounted men we clip from the Plaquemine
Gazette Of the I'd inst:
This splendid body OF Louisiana cavalry are
ordered to the seat of war in Kentucky, as we
learn from Capt. Keep, and will leave about the
7th inst. We are requested by him to say that all
the Ed. Moore Rangers absent from his command
are expected to report themselves at Camp
Schatre, on or before Wednesday next, prepara-
tory to their final departure from that place. Col
Scott is now in New Orleans for the purpose of
chartering several large class boats, expressly to
carry up his regiment to Memphis or Columbus,
taking no outside freightor passengers, that the
whole command may 90 up uncomfortable as pos
sbe. They will thus enter upon their hard but
patriotic career, battling for the liberties of our
country, in a cold and inelement season of the
year, when their courage and fortitude will be put
TO the test. May the shield of Just and righteous
cause nerve and protect them.
Col. John S. Scott, commander of the above
regiment, is now in town, and stopping at the St.
Charles Hotel. We understand that the right wing
Of his splendid command will probably move the
latter part of this week, in the early part of the
next. The left wing will follow speedily as cir
cumstances will permit. We hear it rumored that
they are ordered to report to Gen. Johnston in
Kentucky. When that veteran officer sees them
he will see portion of the elite of the sugar State
and will acknowledge that he never had the pleas
ure of commanding Drawer, a better, or more
patriotic set of men, a.N .f7

The war journals of New York are engaged in a
family quarrel. The New York Herald of the 23d
opens fire in the following manner: 5-
The Tribune devoted its whole editorial page and
the Times couple of columns to the case of the
Herald yesterday. Our adyertisers---unlike those
of the two moribund Abolition organs-leaye us
but little space to devote to reply and, besides
it is not worth while to waste much powder on
such small game. The Times says we are in favor
Of JEFF. Davis and the Confederates. The 81 little
villain" knows that he initiates his father the devil
when he writes that. If the Coniederates triumph.
ed, what would property be worth here? The
Times has only $4,000, according to its own con.
fession, and has outstanding notes to double that
amount. OF course it could lose nothing. Now
the Herald has plenty of real estate, and no note
out. Of course, then, it would lose everything
Which paper, then, is the more likely to favor a
Confederate success, the Herald or the Times? p
The Tribune accuses US OF wishing a war with
England. Why2 $50 that the Confederates may
succeed !" says the Tribune. That is very wellfol
the Tribune, whose size is reduced, whose salaries
are cut down, who tried to rob the journeymaI
printers, whose whole concern is not worth baC
above in reply to the Times. Then the Tribune
lies a little about the Herald, and then it denies
several true things we say of it. For instance thai
q Tribune man came to our office and begged III
to cease exposing the Trbune's faults. Now We
assert that partner and stockholder in the Tri
bune newspaper came to our office during the Bul
Run excitement, and begged US to cease our at
tacks the Tribune, as he feared that office nigh
| be mobbed. He also told US that Greeley was il
Run affair was killing Greeley, and begged us t.

MONDAY MORNING, NOVEMBER 4, 1861.
THE ELECTION TO-DAY.


The election to. day for State and parochial Of.
Gcers should not be forgotten. Every citizen en-.
titled to the right of suffrage should exercise that
right, and vote for those whom he thinks best
uuaiied to fill the offices. The tickets before the
people comprise the names Of good men and trne,
aud no one can go wrong in making selection.
But the ticket Of the Southern American party we
would especially call attention to, comprising, as
1t does, the names of gentlemen wellknown in this
community, several of whom have already filed
the positions for which they are now nominated,
and in satisfactory and creditable manner that
no one can make objection to them Those OF
them who are now for the first time before the
public are SO weil,known that it would be super
fuouB to say anything OF their merits and qualiti-
cations. The ticket, as whole, has the names OF
some of the best men in the city init, and in MAX
ing selection among the various candidates, It
mustoccur to every voter that the Southern Amer
lean ticket is one that could hardly be improved
upon.
On Wednesday the election for Presidential
electors and members OF Congress takes place.
In this election, as well that which takes place
to-day, it is important that every qualified voter in
the city should exercise the right of suffrage. In
times like the present, when there is no party ex-
element, we are too apt to neglect the duty OF
voting; duty which every citizen owes not only
to himself but to the community in which he lives
Many Of our people now engaged in the war
but this only renders more imperative on those
who remain the obligation to take care of our civi
affairs until peace Is restored and the current o
affairs settles down in its old channels. We hope
to full vote to-day and we hope to see, as nc
4 doubt we shall see, the best men chosen for the
4 different Offices ,- g
