Louis,Ile Journal halls the northern
Democratic victory with the hearljest OK
pressions Of pleasure and hope. |, say, !:
In point Of fact, As we conceive. this
conservative victory in the north virtually
solves one half Of tie National problem,
the questions as to the re establishment Of
the government in the revolving states
which we have been accustomed TO reckon
hy far the most derca,e and ditlirul half
Of tie problem, leaving only the task Of
breaking up the military power of The re
beIIon. so that the people may be at llb-
erty to return to their allegiance.

of the 3 Of November, when he expired.
A special dispatch from Major J. NJ. Nor.
veil, his Assistant Adjutant General, was
received last evening announcing the
death Of this gallant officer Gen. Rich.
ardson was known and recognized through>
out the army as one Of the best of our
fighting Generals. Wherever the battle
ragged the fercest, there lie was The moss

General Richardson was appointed a
Cadet to West Point from the State Of Yer
mont in the year '36. and graduated from
there in July II, when he was breve,ed
Second Lieutenant, and WAS assigned to

HARDsHIPs OF THE DRAFr-TAe opera.
tons Of the draft present some singular
freaks of luck " As general thing it
appears to run in streaks,' and not to be
generally distributed according to justice
aud equity. The following remarkable ca
ses are mentioned as occurring in Mercer
county, Pa
Some )tGe noigbborhoois escaped en-
lireiy, while others were nearly depleted.
Some poor men VITA large families drew
the unmcky billet. while their near neigh
bors, perhaps rich men, with a house :ul
Of hardy sons. all fl for soldiers, entirely
escaped. Again, two or three brothers
would be drawn on: of the same family.
One poor man, with three sons in the arr
my. had his fourth and only one remaining
drawn Another case was where the hus-
bands Of four sisters were drawn and yet
another where a man was forty~fve ycars
old tie jav preceding the draft and in the
brief interval could get no chance to claim
exemption.

The RussIan EmpIro.

Notwithstanding the fact that America
is the representative of republicanism upon
the globe, and Russia the embodiment of
absolutsm, there is a bond of sympathy
between the two nationalities which one
would naturally look for only between peo-
pie with tastes, habits and institutions sim.
liar in character Whenever we talk Of
war with Great Britain, a nation Of people
so closely allied TO us by blood that we ap-
ply 10 them the endeariDg title of smother
country" we instinctively turn our eyes to-
ward Russia and expect her sympathy, and,
under certain circumstances, would conf
IDENTIFY count upon her active support
There is no moro interesting problem than
that Of the destinies Of the American Re-
public and the Russian Empire, which di-
vide between them so much of the earth's
surface, and so many possibilities of the
future, and which, while grounded upon
opposite political ideas, rival each other in
enterprise vigor and rapidity of development.
The magnitude of Russia is unprecedented
in the history Of nations. Her vast proper
tions can only be shown by comparative
statement. The total area of the United
States, the North, the South, and the Ter
ritories, is 2,936,le6 square miles. The
area of France Including Corsica and Sa-
voy) is 2O7,9SS square miles. The area
of the British Isles is 12o,s5O square miles,
Thus the territorial extent of tho United
States is twenty-four times greater than
that of the British Isles, and fourteen times
greater than that of France. Our whole
area could be divided in about four hundred
States of the size of Massachusetts,. 1t is
moderate to say that the territory of our
single country is much larger than that
which constituted the Roman Empire when
it was greatest. But Russia is between
two and three times larger than the United
States. Her square miles, in Europe and
Asia, are 7,s64,s6l. From the continuity
of the Empire, except Russian America, it
may be regarded as one great whole.

west POINT cadet RLlI.

The bill to increase tho number Of Cadets
at West Point was, after debate, killed very
dead In the Senate-that body refusing to
pass the bill, yeas IL, nays %. Both the
Ohio Senators opposed the bill. Mr.. Wade
made it question of economy. He held
Cadets to be educated now could be of no
possible advantage during the present war,
and that all the available funds are wanted
to meet more pressing demands. Mr.. Sher-
man opposed such an appropriation offunds,
because West Point is an 'aristocratic insti-
tuition, not in harmony with our ideas of
equal rights" Reclaimed that the heroes
of the war would spring from the ranks Of
the people. Mr.. Trumbull, of Illinois, be-
heyed it was owing to West Point that the
war has languished as it has; and that if
West Point was abolished, military tactics
would be taught all over the country. Mr..
Doolittle, of Wisconsin, objected to West
Point on the score off its exclusiveness. He
thought the best improvement that could
be introduced would be the encouragement
of promotions from the ranks of the army.
Mr.. Wilson, of Mass, was ready 10 abandon
the bill on the ground of economy. Mr..
Hale, of New Hampshire, said the army
was ready to make war on the Treasury,
and had made brilant monetary campaign; /;
and he thought it would yet be necessary
to punish thieves on the Treasury by death.
The facts that West Point has been un-
der the control Of tho South-that slave-
holders sons were preferred and advanced,
even in the absence of merit, to prominent
Positions-and the general disloyalty of
the army officers from the South educated
at West Point-have given the institution
a bad odor with Congress and the people.
The bill rejected by the Senate so decisive
ly only increased the number of Cadets
sixty-two and the enlarged expense propos-
cd was but $4,000. g...

Tho SEQUEL of an Execution in tho
Rebel Army.

AACbol ARMY
There is in the Confederate army, near
Centreville, an Irish company called the
"Tigers," which was recruited, or rather
impressed from the Irish population of
New Orleans. Two Of them were recently
shot for some triAing military offence
some disrespect to their achivalrous" officers,
construed into mutinous resistance. An
account Of the execution has been published
from the Richmond papers. An Irish pri-
vate soldier is, in the eyes Of the Southern
blades, Of about as much account as negro.
But the sequel to this execution is told in a
letter from the rebel camp, which appears
in the Nashville Louisville Courier, thus:
GAS a sequel to the execution of the
two Tigers by order of court martial, l
have to record that, yesterday morning,
the bodies of t,oo officers of the Seventh
Lomsiana Regiment ,cere found Nth their
Mroats cut They were tho officers Of the
day, and officers of the guard at the time
of the commission Of the outrage by the
Tigers and were instrumental in bring
ing them to punishment. 1t would be
well could tho whole company be effaced
for this new and most horrible villainy."

Bishop Mcllvaine, who is now in Eng
land, was recently invited by Hon. Arthur
Kipnaird to meet few clergymen TO make
a statement relative to tho American crisis.
The venerable Bishop said as regarding
the North, the war was not ostensibly
against Slavery, but against rebellion; the
South being, on tho other band, ayOwedly
fighting for Slayary. Although tho liber-
alton Of the slaves was thus not the ayow-
ed object Of the war, it would--in tho event
Of the success Of the North-be It's certain
result He drew a distinction between
the "AbolitioDists" and the friends Of a
gradual and wise emancipation, declaring
that the feeling in favor Of the latter was
growing every day, and that the slaves IN
the districts occupied by the Northern expe-
dictionary forces showed themselves TO be
fully informed Of the true bearing of the
war en'their own freedom. e27b
