FRIDAT EVENING, Nov. Z, f5d7.
P;naEcial matters showed more activity end
HrmneEs to-day, in spite Of the fact that the po-
litica and wariike aspect Of the country IS still
decidedly gloomy. The rubbish will be cleared
away in q day OR two; cur people viii know the
wo=st, and with patriotic devotion set themselves
at work to provide for 1t. Some uumltfgated trail
to.s, like the Woods in New York, have undoubt-
ed)y been elected By the Vauaudtgha Democracy,
but much confidence il ezpEesEhd that enough
patriotic War Democrats will be found to be
chosen to gave the country from the grasp Of lhe
traitors. Our threWd busineEa men are gradually
coming to that conviction, aud hence are more
hopeful.
