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 manifestly 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 frmness
on the part of the'people are now all that we
need, under God, to accomplish the restora-
ton of the republic.

THE REBEL Force IN TENNEssEE.--A Mem
phis correspondent of the Loudon (Va.) TeIe-
graph says there are over 10000 troops in
Tennessee alone, whom he enumerates as
follows:
At Greenvillc, Tenn. the residence of Sen
ator Johnson, and where the Union element
is still sleeping, are bivouacked 1900 men.
At Knoxville, where the celebrated Parson
Brownlow resides (Lincoln manl are 5000
men; at Judka, 1000; Corinth, 5000; juno
ton, 1000. On the railway between Nash
vile and Louisville, near the State lines, are
two encsmpments of 6,0O0 each, and in and
about Memphis 5000 Humboldt, 1000; Tren-
ton, 5000; Union City, $4,000; Randolf, on
the Mississippi 6,OOOj Fort Pillow, 1900;
Fort Harris, 1000. On the Tennessee line,
on the Memphis and Louisville Railways, are
5000 Kentuckians, and 5000 at Cumberland
Gap, to intercept johnson, who is organizing
force to rescue East Tennessee, he says,
from military despotism.

SENATOR DoUGLAs's GRAvE.-Among the
new objects of interest shown to the stranger
in Chicago is the grave of Senator Douglas.
On broad and slightly elevated plain near
the beautiful grounds which he cOnsecrated
to the Baptist Society for their colleges, in
memory of the first Mrs. Douglas, itself a
monument to his generosity and noble affec-
ton, and on the very spot where he had an
ticipated building mansion to enjoy long
life, mound is now raised over the remains
of the great statesman. Only few months
before his death gentleman in the neigh
borhood, wishing to negotiate with him for
some of his real estate, at that time quite ex-
tepsive, was told that in that beautiful corner
lot he expected "to build mansion after his
own heart" where he and his family might
live in comfort and happiness. Near enough
to read the inscription on the marble the
traveller now passes by, looking not on the
mansion, but on the last resting place of the
dead senator,

speculatIons upon the Strength OF the
Rebel Forces.


During the Revolutionary war the Southern
States furnished to the Congressional armies
one out of every twenty-six and eight-tentbs
ofthe population, free end slave. Their pat
riotsm was heavily taxed in that contest,
and, probably, il will not bear a 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 hun
dred and ninety-six. We are disposed to
think this is the marimtnn 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 a 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 o population of
fourteen millions, or one soldier to every
eighteen. 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
fgures-three hundred and eight thousand
three hundred and sixty. seven and three
huhNlNu dhu lOlNJ-lOuE buOuSdlu olEuL uuu-
dTed and ninety six.
We do not forget the supplies they draw
from the border States but we suppose these
are in great measure counterbalanced by
the loyalty of Western Virginia and Eastern
Tennessee. Nor do we overlook the posi-
bility of a forced levy of every one able to
bear 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 underrate
an enemy. After making, therefore, the
most liberal allowances, we believe that if
the army which the rebel leaders can call
out ever rises above four hundred thousand,
it will only be by such coercion as military
dictator might employ in pressing emergen-
ces, and will involve internal perils whose
magnitude it we're 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 frosts
of coming winter herald our way to the ex-
posed coasts of the cotton States. Their
leaders know this well. .H

Pence Meeting in Russell County, Ky
Feeling In the Mountains. E
The Frankfort Commonwealth of September
l3, has the following;
From o most reliable gentleman we learn
that, in obedience to 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 fEom
Judge w. NJ. Green, three cheers for tSS
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 80 base
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. -.,

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 pickets with heavy
bodies of skirmishers and scouts, immedi-
ately followed by planting section of artil-
leTy 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

to General Mcdowell, at the Arlington

Immediately after the demonstration on
our pickets near Balls Gross Roads, the

They made direct onset on Vandeburger's g

where we had picket stationed. They fred

Clear Greek Ditch.

1t is now fixed fact that this company
have made arrangements to Immediately ex-
tend the present line of their ditch, and run
IT short distance beyond Dinsmore's Four
Mile House, where reservoir covering some
one hundred and sixty acres of land will be
built. From thence it will be carried in
bitches upon the rich mineral lands of Maj.
2. B. Reading, Salt Greek, Lower Springs
and Middle Greek. 1t is expected that the
work will be completed in about three months.
-fhis enterprise will then give employment to
at least one thousand men the year round, in
the richest mineral lands in the State.
Large fortunes have already been made in
these mines, wherever parties have been en-
abicd to bring natural water upon them.-
And now that ditch water can be supplied to
these diggings, we will be much surprised if
tons of gold arc not taken out during the
coming Fall.
This enterprise on the part of the Clear
Creek Company, when completed, should be
highly appreciated by our miners, merchants
and citizens generally, as a new era in the
business prospects of our county.
God speed the enterprise-for he knows We
need it-and many more such during the
summer
