CAMP BEEoHwooD, KY, Sept. 10, 1862.
To the Citizens Of Bridgeport:
Far away from home, kindred, and
friends, and in the face of a. yindictive and
powerful foe, you will readily appreciate
the feelings with which receive the pres-
ent you have bestowed upou me. BY it
am reminded of the home 1 have left, of
the friends ever near and dear from whom
have parted; but am by it doubly re-.
minded that have a duty to perform, 10
Indicating the cause of a country whose
flag has been outraged, whose honor has
been insulted, aud whose power has been
recklessly defied.
Not until the hammer of the free shall
wave in triumph over every town and city
In the Union; till traitors have paid the
penalty due their crimes; till the consti-
tuted authorities and the laws are every
where acknowledged and respected, should
the.sword be sheathed, or the bay6Eet un
fixed.
Whatever differences of opinion may have
formerly existed on the subject of compro-
missing our disputes, the hour for a peace
full solution of the questions at issue, ex-
pired when the match was applied TO the
first gun pointed at Sumter. Before the
national government can retire from the
OLueF
insult to It's dignity must be fully and com
pletely avenged. The stain can be washed
away by blood alone. The suppression of
this rebellion will establish that which has
long been questioned by ytheorsls-the fact
that we have nationality, and the will
and power to vindicate il; the terms "cDn-
federacy' aud ''secession" will henceforth
only be found in the obsolete political vo-
cabularies of the first three-fourths of n
| century of our Independent existence.
II will lnot do TO ask ourselves ho " much
We are willing to sacrifice to save the Uu.
ion (; we must put no price upon our politi-
cal institutions, Synonymous as Sthey are
with our political liberty but we must ask
how much blood and treason is required,
and then pour forth the one, and coutribute
the other, without compunction, and with
out stint. Such is, and such has been the
spirit everywhere exhibited 8 spirit which
has found no parallel save in France, dur
ing the first, greatest, but most misguided
revolution.
OF my ability to WELD the sword YOU
give me, with honor to myself, and in such
a manner that the donors should never re.
gret the confidence reposed in mel will
say nothing in advance. At the conclu-
sion of the war, let my brave and faithful
companions in arms, detail my merits, or
dement's. Egery man is his own biogra-
pher; the faithful historian but transcribes;
all II can ask, ALL wish, is candid, unpre-
judiced criticism. l
/ deeply feel the paugs of parting from
those who repose snch confidence in me; /;
but the pain is mingled with melancholy
pleasure, when call to mind the fact that
wherever I 60, in obedience to the call of
duty, / carry with me the sympathy of
community as patriotic and liberal as any
in the world, and worthy the appsllSton Of
Americans--a title compared With which

DEMOCRATIC STATE CoNvENrioN.- Tho State
Convention of the democratic party Of. this

purpose of nominating candidates for Coy
ernor, Lieutenant Governor, Canal Gomnis-

the Court of Appeals, as well as to 10y
down their platform of principles for
the canvass. Az usual, the Convention
will, beyond . doubt, be manipulated
by the Albany Regency. Whether they will

try to be good Lord and good Devil to all sides
as they did at the Syracuse Convention last year.
in the adoption Of the famous ninth resolution,
remains yet to be seen. 1t is intimated, how
ever, that they intend to take a bold stand on
the war, and may possibly, now that Stone
wall' Jackson has found his way SO far North.
decide to appoint committee to 60 and meet
him and tender him the hospitalities Of the
Convention VA
The public generally have been so much alb
sorbed in the war, and their minds on the bat
tie field instead Of political caucuses, that they
little comprehend the scramble that has been
for some time past going on among the guber-
Material and other aspirants for positions. The
selection of Albany, instead Of Syracuse. for
the place to hold the Convention, was general
ly interpreted to mean determination on the
part Of the Regency to lay Ex-Governor Sey-
modr one side and place General Dix in the
field for Governor, in response to the demand
of the conservatives Of all parties; but we see
that the old style politicians have been at work
packing the delegate conventions and instructing
the delegates to vote for Seymour. This looks as
though the movement of the Regency was mis-
construed, or else they have been trying their
hands at their confidence game. There is an
interesting contest between the several candi-
dates; but we leave it with our correspondents
to inform the public who will win. We do not
expect any important results from this Conven-
ton, nor do we have any idea that either the
administration at Washington or our generals
in the field will be at all embarrassed by its
proceedings, notwithstanding TammaRy and
Mozart have decided to behave themselves, and
not quarrel until after the Convention has
concluded its important labors.

to let little takers escape Scot free. The
North is certainly strong enough to take care OF

In the Tribune we find the following accoun
of Senator Feesenden's present views -

PROMOTION FROM THE RAYKs.-A brilliant
opportunity is now afforded General Halleck
to fulfil his Womise to promote our officers
from the ranks, by coufaring commissions upon
those privates distinguished by gallant conduct
upon the battle field At Plymouth, North
Carolina, recently, Orderly Sergeant Green, Of
Company F, Hawkins' Zouaves, Ninth regiment
New York Volunteers, with about three hun
dred men, composed Of his own company and
loyal North Carolinhns, boldly advanced to meet
and utterly defeated fourteen hundred rebels
commanded by Colonel Garrett. Such conduct
needs no eulogium, but deserves prompt recog-
milton and reward. Sergeant Green is SO well
able to fill the places Of his superior officers
when they are sick that be should at least equal
them in rank. We do not ask the President to
make Sergeant Green brigadier general,
though he has done more to merit the rank
than many OF those who now hold It; but we do
ask General Halleck to give Sergeant Green
commission, and he will no doubt soon make
himself brigadier general by hard service.
