EDWARD EvERETr.-The Portland Adver-
tiser has represented Mr.. Everett as an endor-
ser of the Seymour movement in New York and
the Peoples movement in Massachusetts. Mr..
Everett, having been talked of and written to
with reference to his being the Republican
candidate for Congress in his district, has
declined in letter of which the following is
an extract:
After giving to the subject the most anxious
and respectful consideration, / have come to
the conclusion that l can best serve the coun-
try and its holy cause by not going into Con-
gress. / shall continue to the best of my abil-
ty to support the President. and do everything
IN my power TO promote the vigorous prose-
cution of the war. But feel confident that
what little influence | might otherwise have
would be impaired by my becoming a candi-
date, especially at Il moment when we are
threatened with new struggle of parties, from
which l am determined to stand aloof.

NH- The Richmond Examiner calls the war
in which the federal government is now en-
gagged for the suppression OF the rebellion,
+" that carnival of the devil now in full blast
over the North American Continent" and
speaking of the effort now being made to ter
inmate it, says:
This is the matter to be decided at the next
elections in New York and other Northern
States. now close at hand. If the men whose
bold attempt to recover the ordinary liberties
of an Anglo Saxon people can elect their can
ddates, and so establish the fact that they con-
stitute Il majority, the tyranny at Washington
wU be rapidly reduced to signifcance.-
We know how quickly the mass of the people
in the Northern States. and indeed everywhere
else, rush 10 the winning side, and we can have
no doubt that Lincoln and Chase will have no
other supporters Of their u>urpation, after such
defeat, than the abolitionst fanatics who
used to vote for Gerritt Smith and Garrison
ir the old elections of the United States.
Who will say that the rebels do not know
who to count upon as their friends? Who can
doubt that the purposes Of the democratic par
ty are well understood and properly interpret
ed at the South, or that they do not point di-
rectly to a concession to the enemies of the
country?

Funeral of Capta;p Haskell.

II has seldom been our lot to be present and
participate in ceremonies so solemn as those
connected with the funeral of Capt Haskell
Young, beloved by all who knew him, brave,
generous, and highly educated he has been
cut down in the vigor of manhood, and while
earning for himself splendid reputation. He
had all those qualities which go to make up a
man. His were no fictitious ornaments, but
the hard-earned results of noble, manly and
independent exerton.
In early life he showed determination to
make his mark in the world. At Yarmouth
Academy he fitted for college, and graduated
at Bowdon in the class of go. No one had
helped him. All he had gained was the result
OF his own indomitable energy and persever-
ance. He then became Associate Principal at
Oak Grove Seminary where he remained until
the breaking out of the war. Feeling, as he
often said, no wish to survive the downfall of
his country, he patriotically sacrificed himself
to perpetuate the blessings of a free govern
ment.
AT Antietam he was mortally wounded,
being shot through both knees. He was taken
to Chambersburg Pa, where he was received
into the house OF Mr.. Hamilton, and from that
gentleman and his family received every at
tention that his wants required. Here he
fingered until the 18th inst, when he peaceful
ly and quietly departed this life.
His remains were taken TO Yarmouth for in
terment. An escort from the "Seventh" was
in attendance; also Theta Chapter of the Del :
ia Kappa Epsilon Fraternity, of Bowdoin Col
lege, of which the deceased had been an hon
ored member. Here. too, were the mourning
circle of friends-they who had known him 50
well. all gathered TO pay a last tribute to him
all loved so well. Rev. Mr.. Forster delivered
an exceedingly appropriate discourse, seeming
thoroughly to comprehend the character OF
the deceased-addressing with much feeling
the sacred remnant of many hard fought
field, who had come to perform the obsequies
at the grave of deeply lamented comrade
but we will not mar by extracts his remarks,
eloquent and pathetic as they were. At the
conclusion of the services, the procession re-
formed and proceeded to the grave. Here
was shed the unavaiing tear, the farewell shot
fred and his body consigned to the cherries
tomb.
A liberal collation. was provided at the
Baker House for the military escort and fra
ternity. At one o'clock we returned to the
city. sadder but wiser men, stimulated to re-
newed eXertions for our country's welfare, and
feeling that such death is worth thousand
lives of inglorious ease and inaction.

Newspapers.

TIE Boston newspapers have advanced
their prices from tro to three cents copy.
The New York newspapers will do the same
thing JUS, as soon as they can make up their
minds that the world IS large enough fer all
of them. lip to the present time each seems
so fearful of losing its own position that
they all prefer giving for t~o cents what
costs them four or five, to running the
risk of making any change.
Every article that enters into the compo-
sition of newspaper costs much more than
it has ever done before. White paper, which
is the most expensive of these articles, now

What the Rebels Expect from their North.
ern Sympathizers.

The Atlanta tGa.) In;elligencer of Oct.
%, has long and very sharp review of Gen.
Brass's campaign in Kentucky. in which it
shows up the incapacity of that general. The
following is an extract showing the hopes en-
tertained at the South and the reliance placed
upon such rebellion sympathizers as Eallan-
digham. Bright and others:
Had Gen Bragg done his duty as we'll and
promptly as Gen Smith did, Louisville would
have been ours, Cincinnati would have fur
nished us supplies. while Columbus, Ohio
might have been our headquarters. Then
would the Nal,andishans of Ohio. and the
Rrghts of Indiana, have rallied to the issu,
irg of Gen Brags's noted proclamatio , : then
would many thousand friends in Indiana
Ohio and Illinois have joined the southern
army then, too. could Gen Bragg, having
cut of the western from the eastern states,
have whispered terms of peace into the north
western ear: and then Nigh; we have reason
ably hoped for peace.
But now ali hope of peace is indefinitely
postponed. and our prospects are glooniel
than when we began to cross the mountain.
because our appearance near the Ohio has
caused many a man to be added to the North
ern army, that had We remained south of the
mountain, would never have taken I'D arms
against us.

jackson Retreating.

There is no doubt tha. S,onewall Jackson
is retreatins up the Shenandoah valley. At
sunrise on Friday he continued his retrograde
movement from Winchester, passing through
S,rasbug. Friday afternoon and Saturday
morning his rear guard and himself passed
through Woodstock, and his whole column
was moving steadily up the valley turnpike.
By 70, ced marches lis command was pro-
crossing from twenty to twenty-five miles
daily. He is moving towards Gordonsvlle
by Harrisonburg and Staunton. On Satur-
day the last of the rebel cavalry pickets were
withdrawn from our front at Harper's Ferry.
From every indication Stonewal's retreat this
time is real. He has failed to draw the gen.
erals at Harper's Ferry into snare. But he
has taken himself off unframed, with ali his
baggage, as is bis usual good luck.

GAVE ALL TO HIS COUNTRY. An old gray
headed man, upwards of so years of age,
came in from the East this morning by the
train on his way home to Michigan. He had
sad story to tell of the sorrows caused by
this unholy rebellion. The old gentleman,
whose name is Crane, residing in Wayne Co,
Mich, had three SONS. Two of them joined
one of the Michigan regiments and have done
good service in several of the battles in East
ern Virginia. The third, not much more than
a lad, was anxious to join his brothers, but
was for some time dissuaded from the step by
his father and mother, the latter having been
for year confirmed invalid. At last the
urgent entreaties of the lac prevailed. and
but a short time since he passed through
Cleveland to Join the regiment TO which his
brothers belonged.
Tie bloody struggle at Antietam followed
soon after, and in that battle the three broth
ers fell fighting bravely.-ChicagO paper.

From the Tenth Regiment.

From a private letter received from a
member of the 10th regiment We gatherso me
items of interest. We always like to get
hold Of private letters from the soldier boys,
for then we get things as they are; but often
when one in the army attempts to write for
publication he leaves out just what would be
most interesting to the general reader and
puts in lot of highfalutin that had better be
left OCT altogether. But to the Tenth.
This regiment was quite unfortunate in be-
ing put upon the Potomac and the canal
above Washington when it first went into
service. The water was stagnant and very
unhealthy, and the men were obliged to
sleep upon the ground mHhom army tents
for nearly t,ro months what a shame.) Ia
this time the men contracted diseases which
are now showing their effects. About thirty
have died in the regiment, and three have
died from Co. 4, which was recruited at St.
Johnsbury.
The Tenth had got fairly located at Seneca
Locks. and the boys had all got :heir hu,s

to march to O:futt's Crossroads, about ten
miles distant, where they now are, together
with the Mass. 39th, n. II. 18th and Me.
