From New York.

NEW YORK, Oct. l.
A letter from the army of the Upper
Potomac says the rebels have begun
their work of devastation on the Balti
more u Ohio Railroad. Bridges, cul.
verts and embankments are being des.
troyed, excavations filled up, and rails
aud stock carried off.
A letter from Pensacola says the har-
Dor and defences Of Mobile have become
the subjects Of close study by army and
navy critics here, as that will probably
be the first point Of attack.
Fort Morgan mountsa1O guns, the
channel runs close to the fort, and is
commanded not only by the guns Of
Fort Morgan, but also enfi|aded BY those
OF Fort Gaines, the smaller fort on
Dauphin Island.
No considerable forces Of rebels are
garrisoned at either Charleston, Mobile
or Savannah it is believed, but much
has been done in the way Of obstructing
The channels and constructing defensive
works along the water approaches to all
these cities.
The harbor is fast filing with men Of
war of all grades, and the Admiral'e
fleet is already very formidable.
The Preble has been turned into q
floating hospital, but as yellow fever
has entirely left us, her hunks are not
likely to ba very crowded.

GREAT EXCITEMENT IN KANSAS
The widest excitement that we have
ever seen, is now prevailing in many
parts of Kansas. Thisis in consequence
of the policy pursued by Gen. Jahawk-
ing Jim Lanes men. They proceed in
small squads to travel over the country
and press at the point Of the bayonet,
men, indiscriminatelv, into the service
Of their leaders. In case a man refuses
to sign the list, he is either shot imme-
diately or incarcerated in q prison, and
subjected to all the indignities lmsgin-
able. Such proceedings are well caIcu-
lated to exasperate the people.-Glen.

that company officers and paymas-

nominations Of SIS, Sos and SOS, al

Of three per cent from all soldiers, and
payments of every kind made in money

not regarded as payments, and are not
subject to assessment or reduction.
Sd. 1t is understood that each COM
missioned officer OF the army receives
from paymasters compensation at the
rate Of not less than 5000 per aunum,
therefore all payments made by pay
master or discussing officer should be
treated as being in excess Of the rate of

three per cent, should be deducted
and withheld from the amount thereof
accordingly.

NO SIGN YET APPEARS.


The Presidents emancipation procla
nation has been before the country for
moro than week. The world moves on
as accustomed to do previous to that
event. Wchave marked no particular
changes. The miracles, Of which it was
to be the precursor, arc yet withheld
from the world Recruiting is not i'm
proving that we have heard of. Those
abolition bretbern who promised to rush
with frantic zeal TO the standard-who
Dragged SO loudly that they would fill
the recruiting Offices to overlooking, still
linger around their family doorposts-
still continue their accustomed avoca
tions in offices, shops and 6eld,as unmlnd-
tul of "Klngdom Coming" as if there
were no first day of January ahead-and
as though upon that day the shackles
Of their equals who have long been
lingering in servltude, were not to BIZ
smttcn from their limbs forever.
Isit not atrange-passlng strange !
Can this lie SO, after all that we have
seen and heard, aad not excite our
special wond err 2" When we begin to
see these fanatics rushing to arms and
otherwise fulfilling their oft repeated
vows, we shall begin to acknowledge
their sincerity. As get we see nothing
that induces us to believe that they have
really any sympathy for the slave, or care
anything about the abolition Of slavery,
except as political hobby-only as a
means to bring about cert,in selfish
ends. 1t is that, and nothing more.
Should this lethargy continue to over
hang our political opponents; should
they not show some sign of sincerity
ere long, it is evident that the great
coup d'etdt Of the President will have
the effect to strengthen the loins Of the
democratic party, and through that
channel yet work some little good
to the country. If they will not profit
nor attempt to profit by this accession
to their demands, this grant Of ali tina,
they have asked, it Will soon become
most fully apparent that they were liars
and hypocEites, and AS such, entitled to
no part of that consideration which
otherwise might be justly their DUE
What do You propose to do, Messrs.
Abolitlonists, now that your boon has
been granted? Are you going to full
bill your promises going to come up in
squads and swarms to crowd on the car
OF liberty, are you going to do as you
have hitherto done-talk and grumble
on in inactivity! In that case how is the
great work of emancipation to be
achieved on the coming of the new
yearp
The democracy have always regarded
the abolition sentiment in the proper
light. They have even considered il
insincere and demogogish. They can
see it in no other light until they see
some better proof to the contrary than
has yet been afforded. They will con-
tinue to work on for the preservation
and glory of the Union and the Consti-
tution-they will continue to fight just
as arduously against the rebellion, not
caring an iota for the preservation or
annihllation Of the institution of slavery.

saved and slavery survives, 60 be It,
There is nothing that cal, stand between
them and their fondest hopes-the per-
petuation of the Union and the Consti.

Greeley,s coo, OOO....A Denial Nailed
~ -4rw .sv- - tho W alb
h During the past summer, while the
Tribune and kindred prints we're de-
handing an emancipation proclamation,
the assurance has constantly been kept
IN view that on the appearance OF the
desired document-the "magic world
an immense army Of anti-slavery men
would arise at the North and literally
wipe out the whole of rebeldom. MIR.
Greeley went SO far as to fix this force
10 Buckram at precisely 100000. lie
wouldn't call it round million because,
doubtless, he conscientiously believed
that his friends would not muster Mp to
that figure. Now that the "magic word
is spoken Greeley is called upon to
march out his legions by contemporary
as follows:
Not very long ago poor Greeley an
nounced in the Tribune that he had q
reserve of nine hundred thousand radi-
Gals, who would enlist for the war if the
President would proclaim emancipation,
int whose services could not be secured
at any other price.
To this Greeley responds:
Hasn't the above falsehood been ut
tered and contradictcd often enough to
render it high time an attempt was made
to give it some sort of countenance
When you next refer to it, be good
enough to quote the passage from the
Hib ne on which you base it, giving
the date.
The passage is quoted as follows
from the Tribune Of Saturday, August
I'd, 1862, being the last paragraph Of the
leading editorial, entitled "Let us have
plain English" 1t is as follows, ver6a-
tim ct Iterasin
There are three times three hundred
thousand born and naturalized Yankees
who never smet battle, ready enough
bounty or no bounty, to die for the
country. But they had rather do first
and die afterward, il necessary. Start
the good old chorus of universal "humaI
natcr," in its own dear, musical, glorious
burning, self.evident words. Start the
old chorus of Liberty Forever, and they
will all join in and march on, knowing
every blessed mothers son Of them, tina,
what is going to be done now is to save
the country, and not to save its enc
mics!
Here we have the promise Of the rad
reals. But what is the fact Who
knows of single soldier added to tn.
army Of the Union by the emancipation
proclamation?

Indian Batbarlty in Minnesota.

E. A. Veazie, Of Minneapolis, Mimi.
in letter from that place, dated 18th
inst, says:
Fort Smelling has been occupied by
our volunteers as a drilling point since
the Southern rebellion, and at the time
ofthe Indian outbreak, there were from
5000 to 1000 volunteers to report there
Tor duty, ready to 60 South, but now
are sent in all directions after the red
skins. Some have gone to Fort Rip
ley, about 1870 mics up the Mississippi,
to look after the Chippewa tribes
while large force has gone up the
Minnesota to Fort Ridgely, about 15o
miles from here, where ex Governor
Sibley, now Col. Shelly, is in command.
The Sioux indians are usually paid
of at aeplace called Red Wood Station,
little outside this Fort. At Red
Wood the Sioux did great damage,
burning and robblng warehouses, &c.
From Fort Ripley to Fort Ridgely is
about 200 miles. and over this country
the Sioux have committed their bloody
deeds, and frightened off every ma"
from his home, leaving all behind them
at their mercy.
AT the first outbreak at Red Wood,
100 citizens, all armed and mounted
rom this town left at short notice for
Fort Ridgely and New UIm on the Min
nesota, and on their return we had &C.
counts of the most awful character

swinging across fences dead. Three
boys were found nailed hands and feet
TO a building, one Of them alive, but died
IN being taken down. A woman 10 a

and the infants arms and legs cut off
and replaced in the womb, while the
trunk was folded in its mothers arms
IN her breast, and both her breasts cut

Other children were found with one
arm cut of, and some with both, and
the face skinned and turned up. Two

New Business for the Corn Exchange.
A good thing came off on Tuesday,
when the Corn Exchanges last corps
left Philadelphia tor Harrisburg. Among
the men was one who had young
wife. While they were waiting for
the order to march, the young wife
was taking leave Of her husband, in ac-
cents broken, and eyes that lay bedew.
cd in tears, like yiolets in a summer
shower. The man caressed her, but the
tears still started: he told her of the
patriotism and muniticence of the Corn
Exchange Association, yet the crystals
contin ed TO fall; he told her of her
country's danger, but her anguish was
not soothed. AT last, weary OF his en-.
beavers, he tried another tack. "Sally''
says he, "quit crying. You see VIVA,
the Corn Exchange has done. They've
paid you my bounty, fitted me out, and
everything"
"Ye-," the girl sobhed, "but''-
"But what!'
"But if you get killed, what then e.
"W hy"-the man hesitatcd a mo-
ment, until lucky thought struck him
-"why then the Corn Exchange will
find you another husband"
The righteousness Of thcidea changed
the current Of the girls feelings, and a
smile wreathed her pretty Mouth and
dimples in manner that was pleasing
to behold. The last tear rolled away,
and as the word "forward was given,'
she gave the young recruit last kiss,
and departed in good cheer.-Riladel
