Am Army officer ON AbeiitiOnAsm
The following il an extract from pri

regular army. holding a high position o.
the staff of General Me Clellan, dated Jun

al have been told that confessions ar

Not that ! love the negro. or nm prepare,
TO say, AIT thou not u man and broth
or = but Go love my country and til,

ltical feelings have been wiped out, one
by one, slowly but surely. ] could not
pass through all that have witnessed
curing the last year, and not see, what
every honest and candid man should
that All institution which could so change
a whole people in their feelings and &C

the sooner II is done away with he better
l am no longer a sticsler for the con-
stitutional rights of the South: people
who are trying SO earnestly to destroy
their only safeguard should not be pro-
tected by that which they are SO anxious
to overthrow. ! can now appreciate and
echo the saying of Wendell Phillips -
Let us destroy that Institution which
has disturbed the peace ot our country
for several years
/" \ GU, like myself, have, no doubt, in
times past had high idea Of southern
,hivalry, Like many other things down
south, find even that boosted institu-
ton humbus. Among all the southern
officers whom / lave met and been bro't
into contact With, | have found scarcely
ono that was even the peer Of n northern

. could tell you Of deeds nf ba thar

THE GREAT FIRE AT ST. LOUIS.
Loss Sl75,OOO.

ST. LOUIS, Oct %.
The fire on the river yesterday turns out
more disastrous than was at first Supposed
The cargo of the Bayou consisted of 825 bales
hemp, which was mostly in the hold where the
fire originated as it is supposed from spark
from candle which had few moments pre-
vious been blown out by the men when quit
ting for dinner. About twenty-five bales had
been delivered and the balance was destroyed
The Estelle and w. H. Russell had been load
ing for the Missouri River for several days,
and both boats had considerable freight on
board. That on board the Estele was burned,
while the greater portion of the Russell's will
be saved slightly damaged. TheMc Dougal
and McGill were laid up boats and had moth
ing of consequence on board. The total loss
amounts to $4,000, to wit: The III. ID. Ba-
con $4,000, cargo S25, 900; the Russell $4,000,
corgo damaged about 81 900; Estelle $4,000.
cargo $4,000; McGill $4,000; McDougal
S2S,000; cotton and hemp burned on the evee
about $4,000. The Bacon was insured for
$4,000, Estele $4,000, McGill $4,000, Nc
Dougal $4,000, Russell $4,000, and on the
Bacon's freight $1,000. The receipts of her
down trip were also lost.

EMBEzzLEMENT.-Benj NJ. Bradbury,
of Auburn, Lieutenant of Co. II, 10th Maine
Regiment, q short time since resigned his COM
mission and returned home. One of the mem
bers of the 10th Regiment Band, Mr.. Elisha
Gott, of Lewiston, sent to his father, by Brad
bury, $50, enclosed in a letter, with stamps
upon it, and requested Bradbury to mail it
when he arrived home. Subsequently Gott
met Bradbury in New York, and the latter
told him that he had mailed the letter in Bal
timore, as he did not return home aslsoon as
he expected. Gott, upon visiting his father,
found that he had not received the money, and
he had warrant taken out against Bradbury
for embezzlement, which warrant was placed
in the hands of Deputy Sheriff j. NJ. Parker
of Auburn, who came to this city and placed
the matter in the hands of the police. Yes
terday, Deputy Marshal Hawkes. arrested
Bradbury in this city. He at once owned up
that he had opened the letter and taken the
money. He restored the money to the officer,
and was taken to the lookup. He will be
taken to Auburn this morning.

ENGLISH SENTIMENTAL private letter
from an American gentleman in London. re-
ceived in Boston, speakes of reaction in Brit
ish sentiment toward this country. The writ
er says:
Thank God the people here begin to open
their eyes and discover the vile deception that
has been so long practiced upon them, and at
a meeting the other day near Birmingham,
the resolution to recognize the South was com
ptetety secuted, and a resolution passed TO the
effect that the distress in this country was
caused solely "by the people of the South TAX
ing up arms and rebeiling against the Gov
ernment of the United States"-a hundred to
one majority and immense cheering"
The Portland daily press., 1862-10-29

SHARP FINANCIAL OPERATIoN.-At some
of our railroad ticket offices may be seen
notices posted informing the applicants for
tickets that twenty per cent. will be charged
for changing bills, but no premium is allowed
to those who, no matter at how much trouble,
manage TO pay change for their tickets. This
jug-handle operation awakens the suspicion
that somebody is speculating in change. We
do not object that a reasonable charge is made
for changing bill, but if silver is worth so
much more than paper, why not allow as well
as charge the premium? This would seem
fair and equitable.
