TaAr LITTLE OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
saws that "the good sense Of the people
viii, regulate the value Of legal tender notes.
without any Of Er. Henry's dictation or ig-
porant disquisitions." 1t appears that he is
fearful that they will be raised to par, ny the
good sense of the people. and thus put an end
to that littla speculation" which h" is said to
have in view. We would think it a heinous
oifsnse for him to speculate at tho expense
Of the Government, If he did 1t with his
own money. but when it comes to using
Government funds for that purpose the
crime is increased ten-fold. We think it is
about time that the money belonging to tho
Indian Department was turned over to Su-
per;ntsudent Hale. Instead Of this. it is
aid that about $4,000 was packed across
the country to Portland few days ago, as
. special disposit for banking fund at.tlat
place.

of this place, arrangements have been made
to give Grand Ball. at the Washington"

disabled soldiers in the Federal army. We
sincerely hope that everybody who participates
in like amusemcnts, and has tho welfare of his

learn that thu Indies God bless them y will
contribute the supper, and honor the occa.

killed at 500 in that fight the total number of
rebels killed in the two battles would be 1000.
According to the rates of our own killed and
wounded, this would make their loss in woun-
ded, 1900. As nearly as can BE- determined,
tho number of prisoners taken by our troops,
in the two battles, was at least 5000; Of these
1900 were wounded. This makes the rebel
loss in killed, wounded and prisoners, 25,5OO,
1t may BE- safely concluded that the rebel ar
my lost at least 10000 of their best troops
from tho time our troops first encountered the
enemy in NJ .ryland uhtil they were driven
gle gun or color.
We captured Is guns, Z caissons, besides
80 colors and one signal flag.
Ga the battle field Of Antietam IA 900 small
arms were collected. At South Mountain no
collection Of sin Ill arms was m,ds owing to
the haste Of pursuit from that point.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 29h.-It is rumored
that the existing quietude in the army is on
account Of Commissioners on the way from
the Confederate Congress to propose terms Of

lucky and Maryland, the Cotton States to

CMcAGO, Oct. lst.-'rhe rumor that rebel
Commissioners tire on the way from Richmond
20 treat for peace is probably sensational, and
was telrgraphed by mistake.
CINCINNATI, Sept. 3Oth.-Gen. Morgan left
Cumberland Gap two weeks ago. and is sup
posed to lie marching north-easterly towards
Portsmouth. Ohio. He brought away all his
stores and blocked up the Gap, SO as to render
it impossible.
New York, Sept. 3Oh.-e7O00 troops
have left the city, but their destination is not
stated. A Washington letter doubts the ru-
NOR about Lee making serious movement.
Says 10000 troops left W;.s!.in,, ton last night
in one direction and another body in an
other direction.
The Star says it is generally believed here
that Jeff Davis is about to Sc ID $4,000 troops
on forced m arches across tho mountains to
Wheeling, thence to Pittsburg and Cincin-
natti-then forming a junction with Bragg

wonders, but we need commander who can make such spirit and also develop the spirit ofeach individual soldier The majority ofthe l83 killed and wounded at Elk Horn, was Mis- sourians. Of the 630 killed and wounded of the federals, the greater part was from the Iowa regiments. The third Iowa went into the action 500 strong, and upon the call of the roll next morning, 296 only answered to their names. In the 9th Iowa, on the next morning, it was found that only the lieutenant colonel, adjutant and one captain were left among the officers. The number of prisoners taken by the Confederates exceeded the number taken by the enemy by about sixty, but when it was proposed to ex- change, it was found that the federals had the most ohic IS, which gave them an advantage of 23.

/ HosPITALs.-Four or five of the largest and most airy buildings in the city are being fitted up as hospitals. For the present the sufferers are compelled to lie on the floors, and there is want of mattresses and comforters. Persons in the city and country having such things which they can possibly spare, would show kind ness and patriotism by sending them to one of the hospitals. Farmers who can spare few chickens or product of their gardens, will be paid for them if they will bring them in, and be thanked to boot.
 We hope the persons in charge, aided by our citizens, will soon have the sick soldiers com fortaby situated.

Plant No COttOn2

Nol put not single seed in the grotnd; would not say that he who plants cottor this spring is a traitor, for argument or counsel, to be effective, should not be offensive: But would ask every cotton planter to look at the map and see where our supply of bread stufs and provisions came from, prior to thefaderal blockade; look further and see what portion of that country is now in possession of the enemy, reflect further as to what portion of territory, not now in their possession, may be devastated by this war, preventing all agricultural labor look at our army, its ranks are composed of the "bone and sinew" that have furnished us with bread and meat; we now have them to feed also their loved ones at home. Admit that the cotton States have done some good fighting for our sacred cause-we will do more of that resolving, as one man, not only to fight for, but feed our glorious Confederacy.
 Gen. Beauregard, in his eloquent appeal for plantation bells, to be cast into cannon, says "be of good cheer, but time is precious" In humble imitation of that great and good man, in sincere and heartfelt sympathy for our sacred cause may not the writer exclaim, ''be of good cheer but plant no cotton.

CREMATloN.-Atter the battle of Elk Horn, or Sugar Creek as it is called by some, the fed erals piled their dead, covered them with logs and brushwood and set fire to the pile. We as- sert this on the authority of men who saw il done, and on that of others, who saw the charr ed and half burnt remains. The manner of dis posing of the dead, is one of custom or taste and if cremation is resorted to, the bodies should be throughly burnt, and the ashes gathered and preserved or buried. But to partially burn oI roast the bodies and leave them to be devoured by wild beasts has in it degree of horror that is revolting. Alas! how little did the deludee wretches who came to enslave free people, i'm agine that, instead of fine farms, their fate would be so awful. Slain by the freemen whom they came to conquer, their bodies are cooked by their friends to make repast for wolves.
 This thing was not only done after the late battle but it was previously done at Forsyth in Missouri.
