StOpping the Recruiting.

Senator Wilson, in his late speech at Cam
bridgeport, thus relutes the charges made a.
gainst the government for having, as is alleged,
stopped recruiting last spring.
Senator w. said:
Judge Abbott tells us in his speech. as |
have already said, that he has not taken any
part in public affairs. He need not have told
us that because his speech bore evidence that
he possesses little knowledge of public affairs
in the State or nation, or of public men in the
State or nation. He talks about stopping re-
cruiting, and about the great cost which it had
been to the people of Massachusetts. If he
had talked OF what he knew anything about, he
would never have made remark of that kind.
l tell you here tonight, what know to be true
that all this talk about stopping recruiting is
vile political Islander, by whomsoever uttered
What was the fact? We had from one hun
dred to one hundred and fifty regiments par
TALLY organized, lying round loose all over the
country. Recruiting in the free States of this
Union had nearly ceased. More men had run,
away from the camps for four weeks before re-
cruitlng was stopped, on the Sd of April, than
had been recruited. The expense was enor-
nous. Complaints were made in both houses
OF Congress and in the public presses of the
country, and the administration, on the Sd of
April, stopped recruiting, closed up those re-
cruiting offices, consolidated those regiments.
Drought them efficiently into the field, and
turned all their attention for twenty-seven DAYS
to filling up the ranks of the regular army
On the LIST of May, twenty-seven days after
ward, a new recruiting system was organized,
and put into operation. Now, gentlemen,
during that period, if the recruiting offices
had remained open, no more men would have
been enlisted than would have deserted The
recruiting in Tennessee and in the Southern
States was never stopped at ALL
On the first day Of May, as have said, the
Government commenced a new system of re-
crulting, connected with the State Govern
ments, which, within sixty days, brought more
men into the service than would have been
brought into it if the old system had been
continued it added to the efficiency of the
army; il added, in my judgment to the num-
Der of men in the army and it saved hundreds
OF thousands of dollars Of expense to the coun-
try. These are the facts, gentlemen; and the
Adjutant General, the Secretary of War, the
President-everybody who knows anything
about the facts, knows them to be So And vet
Judge Abbott talks about that cessation of re-
cruting having cost this State three millions
of dollars, and Joel Parker rushes into the
North american Reriep with an article in
which he mis-states the whole question.

M. C. M. AssoCIATIoN.-The library room
of the Mechanics Association was crowded to
its utmost capacity last evening, to listen to
the discussion of the resolution respecting the
Presidents proclamation. The debate was
spirited, and took wide range, the members
who spoke, with one or two exceptions, acting
very much like members Of Congress-that is,
speaking upon everything excepting the mat
ter before them. NJ. A. Blanchard, Esq, led
off the debate, favoring the proclamation and
pitching into the democrats, who profess to be
loyal, but at the same time are doing every
thing they can to embarrass the government.
He was replied to by C. P. Kimball, ESQ.,, who
raked down the abotionists, and exalted the
democrats. Mr.. G. L. Bailey thought the de-
bate was taking too wide a range, and for
short time he confined himself in discussing
the merits of the resolution, which he favored;
but he soon got off the track and was pitching
in like those who preceded him. Mr.. S. Nash
made a brief speech against the abolitionists
and was followed by Stephen Patten, Esq,
who spoke in favor of the proclamation. Mr..
j. 7. Emery favored the proclamation because
he thought it would open the eyes of the peo-
and they would hurl this administration out
of powerl
N. A. Foster, Esq, spoke in favor of the
proclamation as one of the best means Of put
ting down the rebellion.
The hour of adjournment having arrived it
was voted to laythe resolution upon the table,
to be taken up at the meeting next Thursday
evening for discussion.

Rectortown, Va, Nov. 4th, 10 P. NJ.
Gen. Pleasanton remained over night at
Mark Hall, and this morning moved towards
Burbears, five miles distant, and near the
mouth of Chester Gap. Before reaching the
town he came up with Gen. Stuart, with 5000
men and one battery. The enemy had their
guns posted on a hill on the left of the road
but were driven OIL. Col. Gregg of the Sth
Pennsylvania, charged on them with a full
regiment, completely routing them, and taking
prisoners as the rebels fed. Capt. Saunders,
with squadron of the 9th Pennsy lvania regi-
ment, charged on their flank while Captain
Pennington, with another force, assaulted
them with shells. The rebels left ten of their
dead on the field. Our loss was one killed and
five wounded. Among the enemy's dead is
captain. The adjutant of Virginia regiment
had his leg broken, and is prisoner. The
conduct of our cavalry in this action was
splendid, and it is only necessary for General
Stuart to meet them in an open field to show
their superiority.
Salem was occupied to-day by Gen Bayard's
cavalry, after driving the LIST Virginia cavalry
from the town, and capturing prisoners.
