A VOLUNTEER, Co. A. 13lst P.V

Gen. RosECRANs, by his late brilliant
victory a. Corinth, and the excellent style
in which he followed that victory up, has
won golden opinions everywhere. One OF
the uncalculated results of Rosecrans'
energy is, that the Louisville Journal has
read therein lesson which it can apply
with good effect to Buell.. Docs 1t not
mean that in the following P?
"Gen. Rosecrans has entitled himself
to a vast measure of gratitude, by show
ing to the rest of the generals of the
United States how the advantages Of vic
tory should be used If such an exam
pie as his had been set 10 the early part
of the war, and faithfully followed after
ward, we believe that the rebellion would
ere this have been closed up and closed
out. There can be no military fact more
indisputabe than that an enemy beaten
and crippled in battle should be instantly
aud vigorously followed up, pressed upon,
harrassed, and knocked from pillar to
post, and from post to pillar, until he is
utterly broken up and broken. down. 1t
is fortunate that we have at least one gen.
eral who, when he gains victory, knows
what to do with it."

! No important movement in the Army
of the Potomac. Fears are expressed, by
the soldiers and others, that-in spite of
the anxiety of the President, and all loya
people, for forward move-Gen. VI Clel-
Ian will soon ego into winter quarters" !"
1t chils the blood of every loyal citizen
to imagine another long season, such as
before the wooden guus os Centrevile las,
yesr-just what the Rebels, and their
Northern friends desire, TO weary aud
disgust all patriots with the war and a
free government
The rumors Of another raid into Penn
sylvunia, and of the Rebels crossing at
Hancock, are not authenticated.
Gen. Seigel reports the enemy in no
force on the S. W. of Washington nearer
than Warrenton.
Richmond papers say that the frauds
in the conmissary department are notori-
Gus, and that the Virginia farmers north
of the RappaLanuock are putting in no
wheat at all.
Generals Seigel, Schurz, and Sickles.
have earnestly advised their German and
other friends in New York to support the
nominations Of the Republican Union
party.
A Rebel Col Faulkner made an attack
upon Island No. 10, tut was defeated BY
smaller force-the Rebels accidentally
firiug into each other-and Faulkner and
several of his officers were captured
The Rebel General, Van Dorm, was
superseded after his dreadful defeat a,
Corinth.
The retention of Gen Buell. in com.
mani at the West, cost the Administra-
ton mar-y thousand Of votes in Ohio aud
in indiana. lie is too slow to move, aud
does not follow up an advantage.
The Union party had no opposition at
the Baltimore City Election
Itis hoped that Pope and Sibley have
ended the Indian war in Minnesota by the
capture aud dispersion of the leading
ludlan warriors.
CINCINNATI, Oct. 2l-The armies of
the rebel Generals Bragg and Kirby
Smith have passed safely out of Ken
lucky through P0welI's Gap, with all
their trains, supplies, &C., it being i'm
possible for our army to pursue them tOr
wan. of forage and subsistence. They
will all return to Louisville and Lebanon.
New YORK, Oct, 2..-The Stocl;
Board to-day voted out American gold
from its stock list,
Latest advices from Gen. Schofeld state
that his advance, under Gen. Brown, had
driven the Rebels out of Perryville, and
that they fled hastily across the border into
Arkansas. He says there is now no Reb-
ell force in that portion Of Missouri, and
Consequently none of importance in the
State.

FATAL AccIDENT-Saturday of last
week, two deserters from M'Clellan's
army, named Barker, on their way home
to Caudor, near Oswego, N. Y, procured
passage on a canal boat to Wilkesbarre.
As the boat was crossing the river at Nor
thumberland, Theodore Barker, while in
the act of casting off the line of another
boat which was coming toward them, fell
between the boats, crushing his head so
that be died in a few hours asterward.
He leaves a wife and several children. A
purse was made up by the citizens to de-
fray the expenses Of the dead and living
brother home.

Gen. Davis, who shot Gen. Nelson, has
been hapded over to the civil authorities,
aud the Government will not interfere 10
the case at all. Should he be discharged,
(Which is in the highest degree probable, }
be will be retained in his command. The
act of which be stands charged, seems to
be justified BY both the press and the COM

the degrading treatment, sometimes, OF
superior oibccrs to their subcrdinatss.

which meets once in three years, has just
adjourned in New York, after expressing

WHAT CAN BE MEANER when the
Supreme Court decided that the Soldiers
vote was unconstitutional, the Republicans
elected BY it in LuzerDe county at once
gave up to those Democrats who had ma
jori.y of the home vote. In Philadelphia,
however, Mr.. Ewing, declared elected upon
doubtful army vote, refused to yield,
and fought OF the case until last week,
when the County Court decided Tbomp-
son, (Rcpub } was elected Sheriff Of Phi
ladelphia. Since then, Ewing is base
enough-to grasp the profits of the Office
little longer-to appeal to the same Su-
premc Court which he knows has already
virtually declared the case against him
But the Governor issued a commission to
Thompson, who took the otfice-Ewing
still refusing to yield-by the use Of some
force.

"Provile your own Change"

Persons calling at Telegraph oihces, 10
q hurry, should get their change before
hand. 1t is really impossible for opera.
tors. tollkeepcrs, &c, to spend the tiue to
make change for everybody.
Were the principle of every one provid-
ing his own change acted upon, quite pro-
baby there would be tease in the money
market" We all are very much like the
excited Frenchman, who, in a time oi
paric, drew all his mouey from bank,
aud, finding they had so much left, asked
them to take his cash back again: said
be, "lf you .haf not got de money, wants
him; but if you haf got de money,
not wants him" CI.fieace is all that
is wanted aud not the cash.
sa-rhe new law imposes stamp
duty of cent for every message under
20 ceuts, aud for 20 cents or over, 3 cents
to be attached TO the despatch and can
ceIled wherever the Message is paid.
rea.The "best business" of the day is
hiring as substitutes for drafted men, for
whom SjG to $500 have been paid by
different persons. Mr.. Coleman, of the
Cornwall Iron Works, in Lebanon cOun-
ty, being drawn, paid s. 900 for a substi-
tute from his own works, aud made pro-
vision for - 600 to tke family in case of
the death or disability of the substitute.
We are told Nr. Seebold of Limestone
(it years of age) gave S225 for a substi
tue, and thatJ Woods Brown Esq, pays
Frederick Williams $500.

Dealh OF Charles Jared Inrersom.

Hon. cHARLEs JARED IEeEasoLL died at hiS
residence in Philadelphia, on Monday morning,
May IA, in the eightiesh year his age. From
an obituary in the Inquirer we make the follow
Ing extracts
Mr.. IngersOll was member of the Congress
Of 1912, and was one of those fearless men that
dared to vindicate their country sgainst the
aggressions Of Great Britain. His pen and
tongue were both eloquent in the cause. He
held the Office Of United States District Attor-
ney under Mr. Adams, and was subsequently
elected to Congress during the Administration
Of Mr.. Polk. He was leading member OF the
Democratic party, q thorough patriot, and a
statesman who always vindicated the honor and
best interests OF his country.
His " History Of the War of 1912" breathes
the same spirit of love Of country, and bids fair
to become standard work Of our literature.
He was, emphadcally, great man, and his
memory belongs to history, and will be long
by his countrymen.

Death Of an Eminent DIvine

4
Intelligence has been received from Florence
of the death of GEORGE W. BETHUNR, D D, ir
that city on the 25th of April.
DR.. BETHuSE was born In New York City in
March, 1905 At an early age he entered the
ministry Of the Presbyterian Church, but soon
after transferred his relations to the Reformed
Dutch. He has been the pastor Of various
IchuIohesin the eastern cities, and three years
ago left the charge of church in BROOKLYN,
N. r., to 60 to Europe for the fifth time, on a
tour for the benefit of his failing health.
DR.. BETHUNE had few equals as a preacher,
ard was favorably known as an author. In
deed, as a belles.lettFes scholar. he was thought
by many to have no superior In this country
For thirty-six years he had been connected with
the Reformed DntOh Church, and prominent
In every movement to advance its interests.
