We are asked almost every day "when
will there be an advance movement OF
the army of The Kanawha'? As we are
not in the confidence Of those in COM
mond, we are not prepared TO answer the
question definitely and satisfactorily; but
from present indications, we suppose
that when a railroad is constructed from
the mouth of the Kanawha to Gauley,
and one hundred thousand troops have
collected at Point Pleasant, and all the
subsistence in the Kanawha Valley has
been appropriated by the rebels to their
own use, and after they have supplied
themselves with salt for the next twelve
months, and the last Union man in the
Valley is driven from his home aud all
his property destroyed-in short, when
it is ascertained to dead moral certain
ty that the last rebe! soldier has GvOcua'
ted the valley,--then and not till then
in our opinion will that movement for
ward be made.

He was g young man Of good family, and

Major Russell was accustomed to say

Harpers Ferry in 1859 to quell the John
Brown raid, when Governor Wise with all
his.Virginia State troops dared not attempt
the formidable task of putting down an

Major Russell who made the assault upon
the engine house and captured the party.
Six months ago, down in the mud before
Yorktown, lying upon the straw in the
Majors tent, at McClellsn's headquarters
and supping after days tramp through
knee-deep mud, off ofhis crackers, sardine:
and champagne, we heard the whole story
of the Harper's Ferry campaign from hii
own lips, while the frequent booming o
guns from the enemy's works, three mile
distant, gave point and zest to the scene
Major Russell was an active, energeti
soldier, and thorough gentleman.

Captured rebel prisoners report that
Mobile has fallen into Federal hands. 1t
is not at all improbable. An attack upon
the city has been expected for some time.
Mobile is very important point upon the
Southern coast, it having had very eX-
tensive shipping trade of cotton. In 1850
the population was 29,25S, an increase Of
s,748 since 1850. Many vessels have run
the blockade at this port, and its loss will
be almost irreparable to the rebels. 1t is
defended by Fort Morgan and other works
and promised desperate resistance. The
expedition against it was commanded by
General Butler, and was last heard from
definitely, at Pensacola.

The Prospect in New Y0rIl.


General Wadsworth, it is said, feels
confident of his election on Tuesday next,
and says truly that the question is not a
personal but national one. The contest
for Governor Of State never had SO great
significance and Importance as now. And
if HoratiO Seymour is elected Governor Of
New York, it will be national calamity
which the whole people viii have cause to
mourn. It cannot be denied that he is the
candidate Of a party whose platform at
this time is opposition to the Administra-
tion. If he is elected that spirit of opPO-
sition will be carried out to the utmost.
State troops will be kept at home rather
than sent to tho support of the Govern
ment; those now in the field may be re-
called those ready to go will be hindered
and delayed until the time Of their urgent
necessity has passed or their presence
would be powerless; the whole vast ma
ehinery of State Offices and patronage will
be cxerted against the success Of the Gov
ernment, and thus disafeetion viii be ram
pant. The professions Of loyalty on the
part Of the Democrats are abundant but
where are the proofs? It is no answer
to say that thousands of Democrats are in
the army, for they are not included in the
Seymour and Vallandigham ranks If
they were at home they would fight the
peace and compromise traitors to the death.
In speaking, therefore, of the Democratic
party as represented by the ticket lately
successful in this State and that sought to
be forced upon the people Of New York and
other States, these war Democrats are not
included. The whole tendency of the Sey-
mour and Yallandigham party is to fetter
and hamper the Government, and this is
presumptive evidence enough that all its
efforts will hereafter be directed to that
end, and hence, all loyal supporters Of the
Government are intensely sOlicitOus for
the defeat Of Seymour and the election Of
WadsWorth.

speaking tour throughout the State, and

vOrable. he says that assurance that, i
Seymour Is elected, the draft aviH be stopped
and the toaT tazss repealed or rsPudiated, are
freely given wherever a voter is found ig-
norant enough to swallow them. Some
have actually agreed to vote for Seymour
on the strength of these audaciOus lies.
No estimate is ventured as to the result
because volunteering deranges all calcula'
tions, but there is prospect Of giving
WadsWorth handsome majority.

Fx-President Buchanan is out with
lOup reply to General scOtfs damaging
szposs Of his imbecility and treason during
The last six months of his administration.
he says as to garrisOning Of the Southern
forts, he had no troops with which to do it.
But General Scott was General-in-chief,
and was supposed to know even better
than the President himself, what and how
many troops were available, and he would
not have urged the sending Of soldiers to
those forts if he had not known where to
get them. But if there were not enough
to guard all Of the forts, part Of them at
least might have been saved. Sumter and
Pulaski and Pickens might have been re-
inforced if the President had desired
Buchanan speaks of the publication Of
General Scotfs views in January, 1881,
and grounds his chief objection TO that
publ cation upon the discouraging effect
IL would have upon a compromise, which
might avert the war. James Buchanan
is q greater fool than is generally believed,
il he still believes that any sort Of COM
promise would have effected any good
whatever. War was determined upon be-
fore the Crittenden compromise vas ever
offered, and not all the proposals that
could have been written upon ream o.
paper would have svailed jOt unless they
contained provision for the complete ant
absolute subjectiOn and slavery Of the
North to the South. Buchanan can now
e1claim against this mad and wicked
rebellion, but good part of the madness
and great deal of the wickedness lies a
the door of the Lancasterian dOughface, a.
this people well understand.
He repeats the old twaddle, current a
the time, Of the danger Of e1asperating tn,
Charlestonians by sending reinforcement
to Major Anderson, saying that the!
were " not needed" How this falsehOOc
can be repeated in the face of the fact 0
the enforced surrender of the fort, is be
yond honest comprehension. As usual
Buchanan closes in a piOus strain, an,
declares his conscience free Of any accu
sations regarding his course toward hi
country. Such a conscience as that wOul'
make the most impenetrable material 70

clads.

The n. I. Tribune says:
Contrary to general belief, we find that
the Union party in Pennsylvania stands
better on its Congressional than on its
State vote. We carry the State on Con-
gress by 6,29l majority, though the Oppos-
ition figure out about g, 3,450 majority on
the State ticket. True, we have fallen of
in our Congress vote from the heavy poll
of 1880; but so have the Opposition we
lose by far the most, chiefly in men goNe to
the war; but they lose 1856 in spite of
their boast of immense gains. They lose
even more heavily than last year; then
they gave Foster 230, ,257 for Governor

"An order has been received from the
Adjutant General, directing the Goth Ohio
to be mustered out and the United States
officer was to have performed that duty
yesterday afternoon. The boys were in

though many Of them expressed their de-
termination to re-enter the service after
they had visited their friends. This is one
of the twelve months regiments, and their
term Of enlistment has about expired.

as to their future course. They profs ssed

.Seeond-This number was duly aPPor-
toned among the several townships and
districts of the State, numbering fourteen
hundred and seventy, assigning to each
its lust quota to be raised, after giving to
each due credit for the force heretofore
raised.
Fhird-Every preparation necessary for
the draft was made ready by the 18th Of
September, but in view of the fact that the
loyal people Of the State had, to a great
extent, been occupied in resisting the rebel
raid made upon our Southern border, 1t
was considered but an act Of justice to
them TO postpone the draft until the hrst
of October, which was done.
At the date Of September 10Th, the num-
her subject to draft was 2O,427. Between
that date and the first day Of October, about
5000 of this number volunteered into the
three years service, thus leaving about
twelve thousand to be drafted.
Of the eighty-eight counties, about one
fourth of them escaped the draft entirely
In the remainder, the work Of drafting
commenced and was quietly pursued and
cheerfully acquiesced in until completed
Of the number thus drafted, more than
One-half, either in person or by substitute
