From Boston.


BosToS, October 7th.-Resolutions were
adopted calling upon the people of all par
ties to support the administration and put
down the rebellion; classifying with the
most infamous criminals the authors ana
promoters of rebellion against the most
beneficient government on earth, and de-
claring and trusting that the people will
never consent that one star be stricken
from the constellation upon the old flag or
one pillar be removed from the temple of
liberty; recognizing Abraham Lincoln as
chief executive magistrate of the nation,
whose rightfui authority and power ought
always be vigorously and religiousIy guard
ed and preserved; that he, the President,
must answer to US, the nation, to posterity
and above all we with heart, soul and mind
and strength will support the President Of
the United States in the prosecution of this
war to the entire and final suppression of
this rebellion. The last two resolutions
are as follows:
ReioLved, That we offer the thanks of
this convention to the loyal States of the
border for their devotion to the Union,
Constitution and flag. We know what
they have suffered. We know agaiasl
whom they contend. We know the strength
OF their patriotism. 1t is firm and true
when hostile arms encamp upon their soil
aud devastate their homes and we brand
as false and wicked the ImPutation of ia
natics and partisans that their loyalty Is
doubtful and therefore their counsel should
be spurned. God bless Maryland for the
last proof of her fidelity God bless the
brave State of Kentucky, cursed to-day by
the tread of the rebel army. Her people
are our people, her cbuse our cause, and il
is our proud confidence that she will pass
through her present trial with her fair
fame untaruished, and while she routs
those who have Invaded, will coufOund
those who have slandered her.

is very evident that the Medical Bureau is
unable properly to meet the present ext
gency aud people must ngitate the ques
tiou of proper treatment of our sick and
wounded soldiers until the President him
self directs better arrangements to be made
by the United States Surgeon General. At
late battles at Antietam there was utter
want of foresight, the wounded being left
for days on the field uncared for. Being
familiar with the total inefficiency OF ar.
engagements made by the Medical Bureau at
Washington, Gov. Curtin will leave no
means untried to remedy the evil and re-
store our wounded to the fostering care Of
their own homes.

E0 Tue DRAFr.-There is considerable
of stir over in Belmont county and else
where in Ohio on account of the draft. In
many cases the draft has fallen upon the
nastiest kind of rebel sympathisers who
have became conspicuous iu their blatant
efforts to discourage enlistments. In other
cases it is acting unfairly. Some men have
been drafted, who have three and four sons
in the army.
1t has also fallen upon men with large
families who are too poor to buy substitutes
In these cases the wealthy citizens are ex
ercisiug a commendable patriotism In rails

We understand that number of men
from Harrison county are in steubenville
after substitutes. One paid S225, another
$3.50. There are still others in pursuit
of the same, under difficulties" Still, the

to-day, reports the rebels had succeeded
in placing a battery at Cockpit Point, on
the Potomac river, and that just before sun
set yesterday one of our gunboats ran into
the Point aud sEelled the battery, entirely
destroying it. He thinks there must have
been considerable quantity of combustible
material in the immediate vicinity of the
battery, as large FIRE was burning nearly
all night.
The Captain of the schooner Eliza Ann
Johnson, which arrived this morning, states
that he spoke schooner below Cockpit
Point, which warned him not to go too
near 10 as the steamer Georgia had been
fired on, aud was told that our gHnboats
had RIM ia aud shelled the rebels out, set
ting the place on FIRE. The Captain had
heard firing during the afternoon, and as
he came up he saw three of our gunboats
lying out from the Point and large Ere
burning on the shore.

NJ. t. Carr, who has just returned to the
city from Braxton and adjoining counties
where he has been engaged in mastering in
troops, was fred upon by guerrillas this
side of BulltOwn. The road passes through
places which are admirably adapted for
successful bushwhackiug. Captain Carr
had an escort of Ringgold cavalry. The
party was fred upon several times and for
considerable distance they had to march
in single file and hug the sides of the steep
precipices for fear of being picked off. The
bushwhackers are working very lively just
now as the leaves will soon be gone from
the trees and then their occupation will be
gone.
