We commend the vote yesterday in favor
Of a free State, to the wheeling Prss,. In
spite Of all its efforts to the contrary, the
movement has been endorsed BY our new
State people, just as last fall the new State
movement itself was carried against it's iu-
fuence.
We make the prediction that the Pres,
viii RS speedily dry up now on this sub
jeet, as it did after the vote last fall
The tune will now be the doleful one
which the senior editor has pitched in bis
letters, and which comes as near being Sc
cessiOn music as man can well get up
under the guise of UniOnism.
When the Press lives in this community
little longer, 1t will find that the nieeer
is played out In public estimation, and that
contrary TO the old fashion, the interests Of
the non-slaveholdipg white people of West
Virginia are engaging attention.

1t is well understood that tits not posi-
BILE for many days to elapse without some
events of the very highest Importance. Is
the army marching on Richmond Is it
going by Yorktown or by Fredericksburg
or BY both routes? Oris it going to Nor
folk? Or yet again Is there to be stimuli
taneous advance on Norfolk and Richmond?
Will the Merrimac come out? will she be
sunk if she does? These are the questions
of those whose eyes turn towards Virginia,
and an answer is constantly expected.
Then Gen. Buell., we are told, is APP
prOacbiug Corintb, where the great rebel
army of the southwest is assembled. And
any hour we may hear Of battle there
which may open the whole Mississippi val
ley to us.
Porter and Farragut, too, are below New
Orleans, and we have the tidings Of the
beginning of their eaunonading at the head
Of the Passes. At any moment we may
expect to learn of their attack on the forts.
Then there are Island No. 10, and Burn
side and Fort Pulaski aud Pensacola to
near from. Is it any wonder that people
are on the q"i DiOe, and hardly know With
er to turn FIRST for that laundering which
is TO sound through the heavens

The Election Yesterday.

The vote polled yesterday was the small
est that has been poIIed for years, we pre-
sumo. There was every reason why it
should be. To begin with, great numbers
of our people who usually vote, were away
from home in the army and in army busi-
ness. In the next place, the scarcity OF
mechanical employment in many branches
of business, had caused many voters to be
absent temporarily at other places, either
seeking or doing work. To this must be
added the excitement of the times, the
cares of this season of the year, such rs
moving, house repairing, &C.; and to this
again, the fact that of all elections that
ever came upon us, this one was proba-
bly, the most unaunouncsd. The usual
official publications had all been omitted
and likewise the usual preparations 1t
was only those who read the morning pa
Pers, and charged their minds with the
fact that there Was to be 40 election yes
terday, who really knew it. No other an
nouneement was made Another essen
tial element to turn out was wanting,
viz: candidates. An election without
candidates Is simply the most matter oil
fact and spiritless affair in the world. 1t
requires candidates to get up an excite.
ment- to draw out voters, and to get oat q
fail vote.
All these things were lacking, and Of
course full vote was also lacking. Still
the vote is good one. Its fair in mum.
bers, and what is better, it is voluntary
earnest and reliable. Take the vote given
yesterday for free State and there never
was better vote given in this or any 9th.
er city for anything Its the voluntary
eEtra-offcial record of a public sentiment,
grown mp aud expressed in spite of official
opposition and negIecs-the intelligent and
long maturing conviction of a people re.
solved to rise superior to past preiudiees
and consult and cultivate their true interests
in future. The amount of the vote is No

day, would have been cast for free State
had the people been here, and had more
favorable condition of things surrounded
the election. AS it stands, however, it will
do. tits all any one could have expected.
1t is more tban many of ms looked for
We hail it. therefore, as the auspicious
dHwning of a better day for our West vir-

The PosltIon near Comm.

The position in southern Tennessee
grows daily more interesting. The op-
posing armies are now close upon each
other; and news of a great battle may be
momentariIy expected. Some Of the late
accounts would indicate that Gen. Buell.
is about to make a junction with Gen.
Grant and Smith, and if the rebel armies
at Chattanooga and Corinth have been
separated by breaking their railroad con
nection, as recent accounts have stated,
our combined forces may be able to meet
the rebel armies separately. This is
most important, for the rebels have UNI
doubtedly collected very large forces,
and Beauregard it at work most ener-
getically in preparing for the coming bat
ties. Our armies are in the heart Of the
ensmy's country, and serious defeat can
be little shortOf utter destruction to them.
That the rebels are collecting their troops
from all quarters for desperate effort to
retrieve their waning fortunes, on the
Tennessee and Mississippi,is very evil
dent Bragg has abandoned Pensacola
and taken his troops up to the Tennessee
line; forty or fifty thousand Of the late
Potomac army are there. and these, with
the Bowling Green army, the troops col
looted from the whole seacoast line. and
the fresh levies of half armed militia.
make up a grand aggregate of $50, 900 to
100000 men. Our troops are superior in
drill, or1s and supplies. but inferior in
numbers. and it is impossible to antici.
pate the great struggle now impending
there without the deepest anxiety. Sue
cess or failure, in the battle coon to be
fought on the Tennesse, may finish up
suddenly and gloriously, or prOlong and
embitter, the struggle for the possession
of the Mississippi valley. Events there
are quite as important and quite as like
" to reach a crisis Immediately as in
Virginia.

- AEAAoEJs
The following is the preamble and res
olutious, in relation to locating the Natiou-
al Armory and Arsenal at Bellaire, offered
in the Ohio Senate by Mr.. Welsh:
SENATE JOINT RESOLUTIONS BYMR. WELSH.
WHEREAS, a bill has been introduced
into the House Of Representatives in Con-
Gress providing for the establishment of a
National Foundry at Chicago, Pittsburg
and Poughkeepsie, and for the establish
ment of Wn Armory and Arsenal at Col
umbus, Ohio, and,
WHEREAS, questions will probably arise
as to the expediency of locating an Arse
senal and ArmOFy in the interior of the
Stase, where the facilities for construction
are much more limited, and the cost of
propelling much greater than it would be
at some suitable point on the Ohio river,
where stone and coal abound in great pro-
fusion, With all other facilities necessary
to such an establishment; aud,
WHEREAS, the people of Ohio claim the
right to such location somewhere within
the bounds of the State, but at the same
time freely accord to Congress the right
and duty to locate such Armory and Ar
senal at point within the State which
shall be most advantageous ito the whole
country; therefore,
ResOlVed By the General Assam6Ly OF the
State Of Ohio, That the people of Ohio re-
gard with evident approval and satisfac-
ton the proposition introduced into the
House Of Representatives of Congress by
Mr.. Baker to establish an armory and Ar
senal within the bounds of the State aud
that we hereby acknowledge the right,
and hold it to be the duty of Congress TO
select site for location that shall be most
advantageous to the State aud nation.
ResolUed, That in the opinion Of this
General Assembly, no place in Ohio, or in
the great West, possesses greater natural
advantages for the location of an ArmoFy
and Arsenal, than the town of Bellaire in
Belmont county.
ResoEred, That such site should be Sc
lected with great care, keeping in view the
facilities for construction, for propelling
portation.
Referred to the standing committee on
Federal Relations.

NaW OrlannE.

A letter to the Chicago Tribune, which
We reprint in smother column, confirms the
report received by us some weeks ago con-
corning the defences of New Orleans and
the sentiment of the people there, from
gentleman then lately from that city,
The report We now reprint states that
the defences of the place are but slight,
consisting only of two or three forts,
mounting, it is said, but seven guns in all,
though It seems likely that they will col
lect more il they have time from up the
river. It Is said, hewever, that not less
than seven gunbOats are building. all TO be
iron-plated, and if the rebels have time to
complete these before they are attacked
they may prove formidable.
Il is stated that a large part of the popu-
lation is friendly to the Union canse aud
about this there is very little doubt. The
French CreOles, who form an important
part of the Inhabitants, are lovers of quiet;
they held alOof from the earlier secession
excitement, and have never entered hearth
y into it. Edward Bouligny, member of
Congress from the New Orleans District,
refused to resign his seat when the cou-
spiratOrs left Washington; and the promi-
nent CreoIes have kept silence since the
rebellion broke out, and have refused To
take part in it. The name Of Beauregard
mas, douotleSS, done something for rebel
lion in Louisiana, but he was a soldier, an
officer in the Union army till he deserted,
and is probably no representative of the
sentiments nf his fellow Creoles.
The merchants of New Orleans are,
doubtless, to great extent, loyal. They
are honorable men Many of them ara ma
tives of the tree states. They know thar
their interests areidentifed with the Union.
As for the German and irish residents,
they are, there is no reason TO believe,
faithful to those oaths which made them
citizens, aud will prove it when they get
| opportunity Among the most significant
I signs of the feeling in New Orleans is the
recent announcement in the rebel journals
that martial law has beer declared, and
! that among the Provost Marshals to whose
charge the place is given is Pierre SouIe.
Soule is one of the foremost citizens OF
Louisiana, aud he has, to the surprise OF
many, RETAINED from the beginning from
any part in the rebeIlious movement. His
name has never been mentioned in con-
uection with secession or Confederate pro-
ceedings; it appears now for the frst
time; and We cannot help regarding his
appointment as Provost Marshal as token,
and the result of strong Union feeling il
the city where he resides.
