WHERE ARE GREELEY's NINE HUNDRED THOU
SAND Where under the sun are Greeley's
nine hundred thousand abolitionists?
They certainly have not enlisted; for our
armies still need recruits, and Massachusetts,,
the great abolition State, is obliged to resort to
draft, in spite Of her offers Of two hundred
dollars bounty.
They certainly have not voted; for Pennsyl-
vania and the Northwestern States have given
abolitionism the cold shoulder most decidedly,
and the State of New York shows a strong dis
position to 20 to the polls and do likewise.
The conservative nine hundred thousand
voted at the recent elections, as the results
prove. The fact that conservative New Jersey,
slaveholding Delaware and antinegro Illinois
have all filed up their quotas without drafting
is in strange contrast to the case Of abolition
Massachusetts,, and proves that . great many
more thousands Of conservatives have recently
Joined our armies.
The emancipation proclamation, therefore,
instead of stopping the war and destroying the
rebels, has only stopped enlistments and do
stroyed the abolition party. How do Greeley
and Andrew feel now? How are their swarms
OF recruits and their tabled nine hundred
thousand?

FoRNEY ON THE WAY TO THE MADHousE.-Our
friend Forney who happened to be in Phila-
delphia, conducting the canvass at the last elec-
tions, delivered flaming speech on the even
ing of the election over the tremendous vic
tories that he supposed the radicals had
obtained, and closed by calling on the band
and the audience to bring in the chorus by
playing and singing the John Brown hymn.
Negro worship bids fair to place poor Forney
in the madhouse long before Greeley is ready to
take up his abode there.

Upon the Rebel Army or vlrGfnia.
The public opinion Of our loyal States ex-
poets and demands an immediate advance by
General Mcclellan, in full strength. upon the
great rebel army Of Virginia. The season and
the roads in that quarter are now the most ia
vorable of all the year for active military ope-
rations. Our troops, from the victorious
fields Of South Mountain and Antietam, are
eager for the final settlement with General Lee,
and they are believed to be sufficiently strong
in numbers, with their late reinforoements, to
march upon him at once and put him to flight
There is general apprehension. on the other
hand, that our army may linger at Harper's
Ferry until compelled there to 60 into winter
quarters, and that thus our situation in Vir-
ginia will in May, 1868, be pretty much as it
was in May, 1862, whom, by vigorous action
now. the great work before us may be substan-
TALLY accomplished before Christmas. The
rebels in the West have been beaten back from
Missouri and from the line Of the Ohio river,
and are now in full fight from Kentucky south
ward. They have been cut to pieces at Corinth,
and ignominiously routed near Nashville.
Their whole scheme Of operations in the West
has been destroyed, and all that our victorious
troops, under their able leaders, have now to do
~, kho% Kart,, olru 10 thaG G,,lf fnf
Mexico, is TO gather up the fragments of the
rebel armies which they have broken up and
dispersed. Hence, with the universal idea OF
the superiority of McClellans army, the general
belief that a decisive victory over the rebel
army of Virginia at this time would be the
death blow to the rebellion.
Why, then, does not the army of General
Mcclellan advances We are informed that his
soldiers are sadly in want Of shoes, and that
until they are supplied with shoes and some
other essential articles Of winter clothing they
cannot advance. But who are responsible for
these deficiencies! 1t is the business of the
Secretary Of War to know, and to call the guilty
parties to account and to see that these wants
of our troops are at once supplied. Our loyal
people will accept no paltry excuses for these
delays in the forward movements of our armies,
if thus all the great advantages we have lately
gained over the enemy are to be lost, and all
our present opportunities for decisive action by
land and sea-
The people Of Pennsylvania, Ohio and Indiana
have declared in favor of . vigorous prosecu-
ton Of the war-not for the negro, nor for
abolition, but for the Union. They have pro-
nounced against our abolition disorganizers,
and In favor Of President Lincolns con-
servative course, and in favor of post
poning the settlement Of the question Of
African slavery until we shall have settled with
the armies Of this rebellion. And this will be
the voice of New York; and it is the general be-
lief too, of our loyal States, that with an inn
mediate advance upon the rebel army Of vir-
gina our secession dsunionists Of the South
and our abolition dsunionists Of the North will
speedily be put down and be buried in the
same grave.

-. ..... LAND GRANT.
The Report Of the Register of the State
Land Office shows the condition of the vari-
Gus grants of land made by the Congress OF
the United States to this State.
Very serious and embarrassing questions
have arisen from the conflicting interests and
claims of some of the Land Grant Rail Road
Companies and the Des Moines Navigation
and Rail Road Company. There have been
much vacillation and conflict of opinion and
action among the heads cfthe Department of
the Interior in gard to the extent of the Des
MoneS River Land Grant. That Grant has
been held by one Secretary to extend only to
the forks of the River at ID s Moines CITY -
by another to the sources of the River in
Minnesota and by another to extend only
to the North boundary Of our State One or
more OF the Secretaries certified to the State
as part o: this Grant large bodies of land w..

limits OF the State, and the State subsequent

1t is true that Gen Charles P. Stone has
been arrested and sent to Fort Lafayette. AT
first, when a very brief despatch announced
that he had been arrested, we hesitated to be-
lieve it and thought there was some mistake.
But the report is fully confirmed by dis
patch from Washington. The person taken
through Philadelphia, Sunday night, on the way
to Imprisonment in fort Lafayette, was Gen. c.
P Stone, and no other. Glave charges are
brought against him, which, il fully proved,
should consigu him 10 death and inlainy. We
have not supposed him capable of so much
treason as these charges imply. and we sill
hope he may be able TO show that he is not
guilty of what is charged. Since the battle Of
Balls Bluff, he has seemed to US u very in
competent commander for such post; but
we did not5believe him to be traitor.
Il is probable that Gen. Stone has been
arrested in consequence oil facts discovered by
the committee appointed to investigate the
disaster at Balls Bluff. AT the war depart
ment and the ht ailquarters OF Gen. Mcclellan
the case must be regarded as very serious
one, else he would not be sent 10 Fort Lafayette
for safe keeping 1t appears that the arrest
took place about two O'Clock Sunday morning
and that he has been held in close custody
ever since These circumstances, together
with the place of Imprisonment, make 1t
evident that his military superiors think the
charges against him will be strongly support
ed by evidence. This arrest will cause a
sensation.
