I Gov. Letcher.

His Excellency, the Governor, has been at
the Saltworks for, week past, trying to make
arrangements. in accordance with Legislative
Instructions to prevent speculations, and pro-
vide for more liberal and a more general
supply of salt. The motive is good one,
and we hope be will succeed, for the people
have been most miserably imposed upon by
The salt spectators. His arrangements have
not yet transpired, but we doubt not, when
completed, they will aim at the greatest good
to the greatest number, though the premises
and precedent Of the act upon which the Go
vernor's action is predicated, we cannot but
Believe, are fraught with mischief and danger.
We publish onsthe first page of this paper
the Act and the Proclamation that they may
be read together, and in justice to Gov. Letch-
er we may say, as the reader will see, that
the Governor has not awaited himself Of the
latitude that the law allows.
We hope to be able ID our next to give an
expose ofthe arrangements and operations at
the Works hereafter
The Abingdon Virginian. [volume] (Abingdon [Va.]) 1849-1883, 1862-10-24
Northern Elections.

We give in this paper the result as far as
heard, of the elections for members Of the Fee
deral Congress. It will be seen that the two
great parties are termed Democrats and Re
publicans, though these are subdivided and
bear other names. They may be thus defined
Democrats, or, in other words, all Demo-
Gratis, Wings and Republicans, opposed to
Lincoln and his Emancipation policy; Repub-
licans, willing for slavery to remain where it
exists, bat to be confined to its present limits;
Abolitionists, those who are not only in IA
vor Of freeing all the negroes, but of prosecut-
ing the war to subjugation or humiliation,
on the most barbarous and heathenish princi-
Piles.
This latter party, as far as the elections
have been heard from, has been totally de-
feated The election to come of in New York
on the 4th of November, will finish the Job.
The signs, therefore, for peace, are more IA
vorable than at any period since the war COM
menced. With conservative majority in
the Federal Congress, the Abolition snake
will be scotched, and Lincoln stock will fall
far below par in the Northern market. The
division that this result will create in YAM
keedom will stay the waveof invasion, as the
conservatives will not fight to free the me-
groes, nor will the abolitionists fight unless
the negroes are to be freed. The signs, there
fore, are decidedly favorable for peace, and
we hope her wing will overshadow the land
before the flowers shall again appear upon
the EARTH
But this hope is founded, not so much upon
the political divisions in the Federal States
as upon the fact that the Northern people are
tired of the war. The debt of twelve hum
dred millions that stares them in the face is
a hobgobblin that makes their hair stand on
end, and the thousands of crutches, wooden
legs and new-made graves that continually
meet their vision give them the shakes. We
have nothing to hope from either party, as
both are for prosecuting the war-the Adolf
tionists for freeing the negroes and forcing us
into the Union without them, and the Demo-
Gratis for forcing us into the Union, negroes
and all.

Relief Of the. Wives of Soldiers.

Some weeks ago we submitted the propose;
ton of the Rev. E. F. Cosby to contribute Joe
bushels of wheat for the relief Of the wives,
widows and children Of our soldiers IN the

paratively few. We now take pleasure in a
gain bringing the subject to the notice Of the
public, by stating that Mr.. Theo. ?. Glapp, OF

els for the purpose indicated. He suggests
that some person be designated in each dis
trict of the county, to receive and distribute
the contributions that may be made.

From Kemtucky.o

We have had thousand and one ruuors
from Kentucky within the last ten days, all
tending unnecessarily, we think TO discour-
age our people. It is doubtless true that
Gen. Bragg's forces have fallen back from
Blue Grass to the Wilderness, but it is not
true that they have been driven back. seye-
raj motives have prompted the movement
In the first place, our army had five thousand
wagons loaded with stores, arms, am1nunl-
ton, &C., all taken from the enemy, and the
backward movement was necessary to their
convoy and protection. In the second place,
the enemy had been strongly reinforced, and
was in position to be reinforced speedily to
any amount, and it was therefore advisable
for our army to fall back to prevent the over
whelming numbers Of the enemy from flank
ing or surrounding them. And in the third
place, in so great and important a field of
operations, our army should have safe and
eligible base Hence the falling back to the
mountains, where the enemy would have to
meet them, if at all, face to face.
Our army, therefore, fell back, not in dis
order or dismay, but bnoyant and bold, and
flushed with victories victories won in the
very heart Of the "Dark and Bloody Ground"
We are sorry to see the spirit of fault-fnd
ing INDUCED by some of our truest and ablest
cotemporaries The hazardous and laborious
campaign Of Gen. Bragg is termed failure"
"fzzle,o &C., &c. We, say we are sorry to
see this, after what that gallant little army
has endured and achieved. Surely il is some
thing to have secured five thousand wagon
loads Of clothing, arms and ammunition, and
fifteen pieces Of cannon. Even the salt that
was brought from Goose Greek to the suffer
ing people Of both Virginia and Tennessee,
was result itself worth a campaign. But
aside from these advantages, was it a 'sfail-
ure" to iberate the thousands Of legal eiti-
zens who were held in durance by Lincoin's
tyrants in Kentucky? Was tia failure to
drive the Yankees BY thousands across the
Ohio, and to make their leaders shake in their
shoes at Louisville Was it "fzzle" to
strew the fields Of Perryyil1e and Lawrence
burg with thousands of Yankee carcasses.
and to prove to them that we could whip them
on every fairly contested field? We think
not, and instead Of censuring Gen. Bragg and
his forces, the Confederaey owes them debt
of gratitude for the glorious results they
have accomplished. Suppose they have fall
en- back, that is no reason why they should
be censured by those who have never fallen
toraoard. We honor them, and whenever We
meet toil-worn and gallant soldier of that
expedition, we hail him as a patriot who has
done and suffered much for his country.

STAMPEDE.

We learn from the Lynchburg Republican.
that the people of Culpeper county, in antici-
patton of the disappearance of the Yankees,
are leaving their homes by hundreds. They
