CHEERFUI.-The New York Journal of
Commerce, under its new management, takes
very hopeful view of the present aspect of
national affairs. 1t remarks:
From the day that this woful war begun,
the gloom of the future has seemed impene-
trable until now. But the prospect is begin
ming to brighten. Political battles are for
ever ended. The army is made up of men
who do not expect the work to be accom-
plished without their personal steadfast long.
suffering work, labor and possible death.
The Government is beginning to show that
it is as strong as its friends can desire, and
the heart of the volunteer, on whom so much
depends, is manifeetly in the right place.
After careful examination of the state of
the army and the country, we are led to ex-
press the conviction that there is more
ground for good cheer and hope to-day than
at any previous moment within four months
past. Wisdom at Washington, and firmness
on the part Of the people are now all that we
need, under God, to accor plish the restora.

S speculatiOns UPON the Strength Of the
Rebel Forces,
The Db;1odaIpbia Tao,t;ror oavos.
The PhiIadeIphia inquirer says' .


During the Revolutionary war the Southern
States furnished to the Congressional armies
one out of every twenty-six and eight-tenths
of the population, free and slave. Their pat
riotism was heavily taxed in that contest
and, probably, it will not bear O much greater
weight Of taxation now. At that rate they
could bring into the field an army of three
hundred and forty.four thousand eight hum
dred and ninety-six. We are disposed to
think this is the maximum number that they
are now able to raise. This opinion is
strengthened by a reference to the Military
Statistics Of Prussia. The Prussian military
system is thorough and efficient enrolling
OF the nation for war, and furnishes a very
satisfactory test Of nations capacity. The
whole force, including all who are fit for SER
vice between the ages of eighteen and fifty,
gives only an aggregate of seven hundred
and seventy thousand out of population of
fourteen millions, or one soldier to every
eighteen. A similar proportion of soldiers
in the seeded States would give an available
force Of three hundred and eight thousand
three hundred and seven.
In view of all these facts we think we are
justified in concluding that the number
which they can possibly bring into the field
will be found somewhere between these two
6gures-three hundred and eight thousand
three hundred and sixty seven and three
hunulSu anu lOLlJ-lO buOuoduu OlSub uuu-
dred and ninety. six.
We do not forget the supplies they draw
from the border States; but we suppose these
are in q great measure counterbaaneed by
| the loyalty of Western Virginia and Eastern
Tennessee. Nor do we overlook the posi-
bility of forced levy of every one able to
bear a musket or ply bowie. knife, but this
can only be for local defense, and for linn
tied period. 1t can not long be continued,
not even under the sternest despotism. We
are disposed to make our estimate of their
forces as large as possible.
We recognize the force of that fundamental
| military rule which forbids US to underrste
an enemy. After making, therefore, the
most liberal allowances, we believe that il
the army which the rebel leaders can call
| out ever rises above four hundred thousand,
| it will only be by such coercion as a military
dictator might employ in pressing emergen-
| cies, and will involve internal perils whose
magnitude it were not easy to calculate. But
up toward that number they will swell as
| speedily as possible their army. Every
thousand men placed in the field now will
be better than ten thousand when the frost!
of coming winter herald our way to the ex
| posed coasts of the cotton States Theil
leaders know this well.

The REBEL FORCE IN TENNEssEE.-A Mem

Tennessee alone, whom he enumerates as

At Knoxville, where the celebrated Parson
Brownlow resides (Lineoln man } are 1000

Peace Meeting in Russell County, Ky
Feeling in the Mountains.

Feeling In the mountains
The Frankfort Commonwealth of September
l3, has the following;
From most reliable gentleman we learn
that, in obedience to a call issued by the Sc
cession leaders of Russell County for peace
meeting, about three hundred citizens assem-
bled at the Courthouse, in Jamestown, and
as soon as the real character of the move
ment was evident from the attempt to pro-
mote the rankest Secession, under the garb
of peace, the crowd, except twenty, (all told)
left the Court. house, and, organizing meet
ing outside, adopted resolutions breathing
the finest Union feeling, denouncing Seces-
sion, jeff Davis and the Southern Confed-
eracy. Our correspondent says;
"After an eloquent Union speech from
Judge W. NJ. Green, three cheers for the
Union were proposed, and such shout as
then arose was never heard sent forth in
Russell. Three cheers were given with a
hearty will for Judge Green. The Union
cause is losing nothing here. The people OF
the mountains are too sharp and too loyal to
be deceived by the miserable attempt to aid
the Southern Confederacy by the so called
and miscalled peace meetings. The resolu'
tions of the twenty rabid secessionists will,
doubt not, be heralded in the Courier as an
expression of the sentiments of Russell. We
protest against the Infamous attempt to scan
dalize the patriots of this county by so base
a trick"
All our advices from the mountains show
| that the whole country is aroused; and from
hill and valley the brave and loyal noun
taineers are rallying to drive the invader
| from our soil.

The FEELING IN New BRUNswIcK.-A gen.

to the Boston Journal;

in the Colonies, used to sympathize with the
North, but some of your papers. come out 80

reaction is really taking place. This is q
pity, for il makes hard feelings on both sides,
when it ought TO be different, as we are all
one people, and should cultivate a friendly

This afternoon the enemy, in pretty strong
force, with infantry, artillery and cavalry,
appeared in front OF the Union pickets, on
the center and right wing of our forces, on
the Virginia side of the Potomac. They
made their first demonstration on the road
leading from Falls Church to Balls Cross
roads, driving in our pckets with heavy
bodies of skirmishers and scouts, immedi-
ately followed by planting a section of artil-
lery near Mary Halls house. From this
point they directed canister and shrapnel on
the Union pickets at Balls Crossroads, di-
recting their fire at every point along the
road, wherever they thought our pickets
were established, between Balls Gross roads
and the Chain Bridge.
The Union pickets rallied in order. In

They made direct onset on Vandeburger's
house, two miles from the Union camp,
where we had picket stationed. They fired
ten or twelve shots, doing no damage. Soon
