re- The last Of the gallant 60th
have taken their departure for the seat ol
war in the Shenandoah valley, and will
no doubt prove valuable acquisition tc
General Fremont. Their efficiency Of
drill, obedience to orders, and manifest
anxiety to do their duty as soldiers,
has so long been apparent to even the
dullest comprehension, thatit,s seems un.
necessary to say anything on that point.
1t is doubtless a tender one, and we
forbesr, leaving it with the Company to
prove by their actions in battle, how
entirely our citizens are mistaken in
their generally received opinions. The
boys win find quite difference, we
think, in loafng about our Public
Square, or coming under the strict
discipline of General Fremont. Lieut..
Gilman is now in charge, and from
what we see Of him, believe that the
good order of our town and vicinity
will be carefully maintained. q

R Capt. G. w. MorLroN, Quarter
master at Gallipolis, having obtained
leave Of absence to visit his family in
Toledo, has returned to his post, and
ready to attend TO all who may have
business with his department. From
aieareful examination Of his system in
the transaction Of business, we are
bound to say that it IS as near perfec-
ton as human ingenuity could devise,
1t is hardly within the bounds Of proba-
bility, that it can be exceeded by any
other Office of the kind in the Union
The modus operQndi is not within the
limits of this notice, but to those who
have the curiosity to see for themselves,
the advantages Of his system to all
parties, we advise visit to the Captain:
Office. His clerks are gentlemen who
fully understand their business, and who
take pleasure in attending promptly tc
the wants of those who call on matter:
Of business. .

BURNSIDE AND McCLzLLAE.-Maior
Gen. Ambrose Everett Burnside, writes
a Fortress Monroe correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Press on the 18th, arrived
here this morning from the headguar-
ters of Gen. Mcclellan, with whom be
had a long and happy consultation
touching his future plans and operations.
These were perfectly explained to the
satisfaction Of Gen. Burnside, who de-
clared to me that he thought McClel-
Ian was all right, and that the consu-
nation of his grand plan for crushing
the Rebellion would prove Mac. to be
greater man than many people
thought him TO be at present. Gen:
Burnside also received advice from
Mcclellan concerning the future move
ments in the Department Of North Car
olina, and is now awaiting 6Ral dis
patches from Gen. Mcclellan to pro-
ceed to Newbern, from which place the
indefatigsbIe Burnside win strike q
series OF blows shortly that viii startle
the Southern COnfederaey. General
Burnside assures me that be IS now
and always has been, part and parcel
of the "Army of the Potomac" He
is accompanied BY bis staff and family,
and wherever he appears is mobbed
almost with soldiers who really adore
him, and cannot be made to think any
thing else but that be is great man.

TAxEs.-At their last session, the
county Commissioners made levfes for
the several funds, for the ensuing year.
True to the county and themselves,
they have SO managed the finances as
to reduce the levy below former years.
The whole tax last year was 96t cents
on the hundred dollars, while this year,
by the judicious entrenchment Of the
Legislature. and our county Commits
sioners, the taxes amount to only go
cents, which includes the Government
direct tax, and tax for the relief Of
families Of volunteers. in addition to the
usual State taxes, the difference being
made up in the county levy, which this
year is s8 cents, against 81 cents last
year. The levies are as follows, on

These are now tending that way rapid
ly, but in another sense. Truly the
farmers have great reason to be thank
full for the prospects before them, not
only of bountiful harvests, but fair

South need not despair. We can fur
nish food not only, for them, but for all
the rest of mankind. The. immense
resources Of our country have never
yet been fully develored. This war
has furnished such evidence of our
ability to sustain ourselves, as years
of peace could not have done. The
slumbering giant is just beginning to

world may well feel astonished. Higher

with still more rapid strides, we shall
not only take, but maintain the first

1T is not surprising that the sympathi-

that be found none. But we can hardly
assume the conversion of the 200, 900
Democrats whose representatives met
in convention at Columbus in 1861, and
passed the famous 9Th resolution. We
shall suspend opinion until after the

DAVIS Do?--0ol. Fornsy writes from
Washington to the Philadelphia Press
as follows: n tr-
A gentleman Just in from the columns
of Halleck, gives it as his opinion that
Beauregard will be forced to disband
bis troops, and to take safety in fight.
He alleges that he is cOmpleteIy
bemmed in, and that be canno. escape
the network that has been thrown
around him. II these theories are sus-
tanned by the events Of the next few
hours or days, the rebel chiefs will
hasten from the scenes of their depre-
dations and defeats, to avoid the ven-
geance Of the Federal government
1t is believed that many Of them have
made preparations for this exodus
They win attempt to escape into Mexico
or s. America, and an idea is thrown
out that they may make last stand in
Texas. But all Of them cannot get
away. Mcclellan ought to secure
Davis and the chief conspiratOrs. who,
if their deeds are half as bold as their
words, will remain at Richmond and
share the fate Of their armies. Should
they be caught and sent to prison to
await the fate they have so industrious
ly courted and deserved, the rebellion
will be left an object of the pity and
contempt of the civilized world. It is
barely possible that they may prefer
death at the head Of their columns, TO
the punishment that win be surely
meted out to them by the Government.
