Though an event for some time expected to
happen, it is with OF the less sincere and deep
sorrow, that weare compelled to announce the
decease Of JOSIAH HUNrooN, Esq, tho late
partner of the SEN, or Publisher of the RuT-
LAND HERALD, He expired at his residence
in this village, at half past six O'Clock yestor-
day morning. lAr. Huntoon was widely known
as an energetic business man. Full Of genial
humor, and buoyaat in spirit even to the hour
of his death, active in temperament and indus
nious in habit, he was at once a kind neigh
bor, an agreeable companion, and an enterpris-
ing citizen. For several months previous to his
decease, though far gore with consumption, he
was engaged in the erection of one of the finest
blocks in our village, which viii long stand as
amonument to his enterprise and public spirit,
At period when most men, even in the vigor
Of health, would have shrunk from the under
taking. To the immediate circle of rela-
tives, we tender our heartfelt sympathes in
their bereavement.

The Forward Movement.

A correspondent Of the Tribune, writing
from the headquarters of the army at Warren
ton, under date Of Nov. 18th, says:
Forward is the word The order to be in
readiness went out last night; the order to
move was given today, ard Couch's corps has
been for ZONE hours up the road,
Three weeks ago, when we crossed the Po-
tomao, our advance did not mean much. 1t
was vel, understood that the then Commander
did not originate it, that he did cot approve of
il, that he began 1t with great reluGtanCa.--
Again and again was told by his immediate,
confidential friends: "ThIs movement means
nothing, and will accomplish nothing. II was
undertaken simply to satsfy the public clamor
for advance. Winter campaigning in this
country impossible The onl~ way 10 go to
Richmond is by the Pennsula."
This movement is Of another sort. General
Burnside originateslt, and his heart is in IT.
II means business. 1t means rapid marching,
IL means change Of base to more direct,
more defensible line. With the army in thrse
columns, led by "Glorious Joe Hooker
Sumner, the bullet proof old war-horse, and
Franklin, reputed to possess every soldierly
quality bit industry, it means desperate, deois-
i've lighting. 1t means Richmond
Among division and corps commanders the
belief obtains that. under Burnside, there will
be no more fruitless, drawn battles. When
the clash of arms comes again, 1t will bring
browning victory Or overwhelming defeat 1t
will be.a day big with the fate of tie Repub-
lie.
The Times Washington correspondent, I'M
der date of he 18th. says:
lnasumch as the news has reached the pub
lie from Richmond, we suppose there can be
no objection to the loyal population of the
North knowing from this point that the army
of the Poomac is to be provided with new
'base" in its approach to Richmond. All its
corps are nov, and have been for two DAYS,
on the march down the valley of the Kappa
hammock toward Fredericksburgh, from which
place it is proposed now to conduct that pill
grlmage toward the Jerusalem -four crusade,
which our embattlrd hosts have Sc long pur-
sued by other and devious and retograde
WAYS.
That Fredericksburgh-- accessible as it is
to supplies by water and furnish ng, as it does,
a shorier and better road to Richmond than
any ether port--possesses unusual advantages
as base of operations against Richmond, is
so apparent that ~e are compelled to wonder
why 1t was OF originally chosen,

Report-By Mr.. Shaw, for Committee on
Roads, favorably to the 28th chapter of Re-
vision "Of railroads and railroad commission
er, with amendment; after discussion of i'm
portant amendment, the bill was, on motion of
Mr.. Denison, ordered to lie.
Personal Liberty Blu.
By Mr.. Shaw, for Select Committee, favora-
bly, to chapter 100, of Revis on ''Of provision
relative to persons claimed as fugitive slaves
and to prevent kidnapping" with amend
ments.
Mr. Shaw explained that the amendments
simply restored the law to the form heretofore
existing and secured the right Of trial by jury
III the case of attempted rendition Of fugitives.
He believed the question of the constitutional
ity of tho law had better be left to the supreme
court as the proper tribunal, and that the
Legislature should not recede from their will
formerly expressed.
Mr. Reed thought the proposed amendment
absurd. The best legal authority had decid-
en- that this provision was unconstitutional
He thought the Committee were putting them
selves to unreasonable and unnecessary trou-
BILE, and hoped the Legislature would not re-
gard the amendment.
Mr.. Shaw stated that the Select Committee
had simply inserted sections of the existing
law which had been omitted by the Committee
on Revision. 1t was simply question wheth-
er the Revising Committee should be permit
ted to change the law which the State had for
merly decided should remain. The PROPOSE
ton of the Select Committee was not absurd,
nor had they taken unnecessary or unreasona-
BILE trouble. That few leading lawyers
should think this unconstitutional, was no rea-
son why the people of the State should recede
from their expressed will.
Mr.. Balch thought the present no time to
back down from the position which this State
had assumed in regard to the personal liberty
bill. The mere opinion of lawyers should not
be allowed to stand in the way of the resolve
of the people in reference TO securing liberty to
those who MAJ come within the limits of the
State. The will OF the people n this matter
had overridden any such opinion in reference
