The New York Times of the 1S;h, asks the
above nuasfian and ansrrars "a - t-Il~---,'
l. would appear that the rebel army is prepaT-
ing 70 actually make a stand, and Try the issue
Of arms with Mcclellan at Winchester. We
suppose the rebels as usual, viii concentrate all
their forces at the point of danger, and that
every available regiment viii be sent from Rich
mopd and vicinity, from GOrdonsville Fredsr-
icksburg, the upper RappahanOck, and every
where else, TO take part IN the decisive battle Of
the war.
Now, if this be really So why should not this
be good time 70 attack Richmond with some
part Of cur prodigious army, which viii certain
y not be with Mcclellan, nor yet covering
Washington. but which is stationed at various
depOts and training stations throughout the
country7 And if, Notwithstanding the immen-
sity Of our army, there be not forces snfioient
TO spare for the purpose, why should not the
President call for hundred militia regiments,
for twenty days to do the work in7 Things are
very dull now, recruiting is almost dead, and
people are losing their enthusiasm though not of
course their purpose; but we venture to say,
that for such job as this, if it was positively
assured TO them, and they were put under frht.
ing generals, such as Hooker, Sigel, Heuizle-
men and Burnside, New York city alone could
furnish q fifth Of the enc hundred thousand
men tbst might be required te make the thing
sure. 1t would give the people 6 new life and
hope; it wonld gid the present darkness with a
brilliant success it would at once destroy the
political factions which are springing up to de-
stroy Us and it would put great military force
in the rear of the rebel army, whatever might
be the result Of the battle at Winchester. Let
the number Of militia regiments required be par
htioned among ten Of the largest cities Of the
Eastern States, so that they can be raised and
forwarded without delay. And thus, before the
end of October, Richmond may be ours, and the
rebel army, if vigorously attacked in front may
be completely broken up.

BrHtas HEurders by Runaway Negroes.

On Tuesday last, MIR J. NJ Shivers, and Jos.
A. Graves, Esq, accompanied by George Groves,
youth and the nephew of the latter gentleman,
crossed the James river from Surry county to
jamestown, to transact some private business.
On their arrival at Jamestown, they were at
tackled by body Of runaway negroes, and cru
ely murdered. Their bodies were then stripped
and thrown into the river The negro who
rowed them ACROSS the river was also badly
wounded, and narrowly escaped to bring the
sad news to the distressed families of the mu1-
dered mon.
Mr. Joseph A. Graves, was a lawyer by pro-
tession, and had been for several years the at
torney for the Commonwealth in Surry, and was
in all the relations of life most estimable gen
teman. Mr.. Shivers is said also to have been
a very worthy man This sad affair has natu-
rally created considerable sensation in Surry.-

INDIAN TROUBLES N FLORIDA.-A eD8rE
has reached Us that the bslanes of the Sam
Jones tribe Of Seminole Indians il South Florida
have been persuaded by the Yankees on tha
coast to cOmAit al manner Of depredations upon
innocent and helpless men, women and children,
living near Charlie POpka, a branch of psa's
creek, in South Florida. They, it is said have
murdered four families and sll who could make
their escape are flying eagerly before the t0ma-
hawk OF the baTbaTous marsuders employed by
q foe equally as cruel Now, there are two
remedies; one is to make, if possible, a treatY
Of peace With these Indians and If that fails,
the alternative is 10 raise five hundred Florida
e01o boys, as some call them, to take these In
dams out of Florida, spsTiu9 none to tell the
tale. II is believed that they have about one
hundred warriors. The chisf object Of the dol
lar loving, semi-infdelic Yankees is to get the
ssvages down in that portion Of tie State to
murder as many as possible, and run off ths
balance Of the eitizsns, 50 as to be able TO get
all the cattle they need; but proper effort on
our part will foil their plans and disapp0ins tina

B-Last year 4,s05 votes were cast in Du-
buque county Since then full 500 volunteers
have left it for the war. Yet at the recent elec-
ton ,s4l votes were cast, being SS more than
last year. A similar result occurs in Des Moines,
and probably in other counties of the State. 1t
seems singular to most people that such facts
can exist. We presume that there are men
about Burlington who could give very accu-
rate explanation of the matter so far as it re-
lates to this county. They know where the
voters came from and how they voted. But we
don't suppose they are very anxious to tell the
public. 1t wouldn't do to publish all the par.
ticulars. But they must be worried considera.
bly over the fact that their patriotic labors pro.
duce such slight results. Wilson, Springer,
Tracy and Garrett are elected The game was
certainly profound, and the tricksters are as
certainly "confounded!"

Washington Correspondence.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 49, 1862.
We are hearing from the elections. Penusyl-
vania does not appal US. Ohio and Indiana
bring no comfort. Iowa is the green spot, the
wise spot, the sound and patriotic isle in the
desert Of defeat, and many an ardent mind now
turns with the same delight to the record of her
political faithfulness and achievements that it
has been wont to turn to her patriotism and her
proves in arms She nearly redeems in her
own domains all that has elsewhere been lost -
She was sensible and just enough to continue to
her soldiers in the field the same civil rights and
power that they would have enjoyed at home, so
that, while they went off to fight against trail
tors at a distance, they were not liable to leave
the State to be governed by traitors and sympa-
thizers who remained at home. But, more than
that, SO high and resoute was her spirit that she
sustains at home, independent of the soldiers,
vote, the cause Of her sons in arms and of their
country. Illinois grants to her own soldiers the
same privilege. So, believe, do Wisconsin and
Minnesota. 1t is but the barest Justice that all
the loyal States should do so. Then LOYAL men
would have nothing to fear in any direction, in
the field or at the polls, and the canse of the
country would be everywhere safe. The politi-
cal sense of the distant West is herein conspc-
uous, and if the character of the next Congress
would appear likely to be compromised by stu
pidty elsewhere, (of which, however, do not
think there is really much fear,) the just policy
l.. =.
threatened dissster.

BRAGG Observation-Disclosures advices to the
Chicago Tribune say that Bragg has made his
escape out of Kentucky into Tennessee, by
Powell's Gap, with all his troops, wagon trains
and supplies! And there is also an addendum
to the effect that Buell. is returning with his
army towards Lebanon and Louisville!
We can hardly credit the statement. But il
it be true, what commentary do the facts con-
stitute upon the superlative generalship of Don
Carlos Buell. His conduct in the past has been
entirely incomprehensble upon any grounds con
sistent with the idea of his ability or fidelity
When he entered Kentucky, and had Bragg be-
tween his own forces and Louisville, il was sup
posed that the game would be bagged BIT the
magnanimous Buell. marched around the rebels
apparently congratulating himself on his sue
cess Since he again marched from Louisville
his apoogsts tell us that his efforts to gain tn,
rear of Bragg, were defeated by Gems. McCool
and Rosseau! If Buell. is General, then i
would be better to do without one. He neither
knows how to meet or to overtake an enemy.

Charles Webster Of the 7th Iowa.

" CHafleS "eD0tef Oh the Itu AONSas
The recent news of the death of this lament.
ed young citizen of Fort Madison, who was cap
tuerd at the battle of Belmont and fell victim
to disease last September in the Macon prison
has deeply saddened our community, and has
shown that public honor and regret await the
faithful private who has fallen in his country's
service, as well as him who has held more
prominent position. ...
Young Webster was characterized by ma
tive good humor, and by soundness of relig.
ious and moral principle which won for him in
an uncommon degree the love and esteem Of bis
associates. In his business operations were
combined that energy and industry which gave
the promise that be would prove 70 be one of our
successful business men. But at an early period
in the war he surrendered his growing business
to another, and with the praiseworthy enthusi.
asm of youth rushed to his country's rescue. In
that gallant Regiment which so soon exhibited
its valor, ss a soldier, young Webster dis
charged bis duty faithfully. May Heaven assuage
the private grief which his death has occa :.
stoned.
May Heaven as the price of so much precious
life as this war demands grant us the boon
which will alone afford compensation for its loss
the enduring peace and glory of our reunited
country. u.
