General News Summary.

BOSTON AND VICINITY.
One night last week young trader from
Maine was overcome in the streets of Boston
by nightwalker, and tempted to a house in
Pitts street, where he was robbed of SllOO.
The poor fellow made a complaint, and his
captivator was arrested; but all his money
had disappeared except some $50, which was
found in her stockings.
BRISTOL COUNTY.
George Dyer, an English sailor, forty or
fifty years of age, fell from the jib boom of a
vessel, while lying at anchor in the stream at
Fall River, Saturday, and was drowned His
body was not recovered.
The son of VIM. p. Handy of Fairhaven, a
little fellow Of five years, deliberately laid
himself down between the, rails of the track
near the Fairhaven depot, Saturday afternoon,
while the five o'clock train passed over him.
| He was probably DESTROYS of knowing how the
cars looked in motion.
The Taunton Gazette announces that Miss
| Hattie b. Vail has reached home in that town
after an absence Of eighteen months in Rich
mond, which place she left on Saturday, Sept
18th. Before she left she was obliged to
promise not to furnish any Information which
would be injurious to the confederate govern
ment. She states, however, that confidence
in the success of the rebellion is the prevail
ing sentiment there. She also acknowledges
the extreme Kindness Of friends in Richmond
HAMPDEN COUNTY.
The enrolment commissioner for Hampden
county reports that there are 9,317 men en-
rolled in that county, of whom only 5 ,l54 are
liable to draft. This is only 55 l-3 per cent
of the whole number.
In Springfield the number enrolled is 3,439,
but in consequence of large proportion of
these men being at work in the arsenal, and
therefore exempt, the number liable to draft
is reduced to 1874.
BERKSHIRE COUNTY.
The four negroes, Nelson Warner, Willis
White, Homer Dolphin and Charles Dolphin,
who were suspected Of the murder of Emily
Jones and her children, have been re-arrest-
ed on the confession of one of their number.

The War ana It's StusSSs
The second year of the war is passing away,
and still, only an uncertain, cloudy future
stretches before us. A million of our best
men have left their business-their labor has
sumers. Our capitol has been turned into
government securities, and swallowed by the
all absorbing war. Nor is this the worst
Tens of thousands of gallant men have sacri-
feed more than time, more than money; they
have laid down their lives upon their coun-
try's altar. Their homes are desolate. Wives
and children weep for them and refuse to be
comforted. They know that husband and
father died for his country, but he is none the
less lost to them. Nor is even this the worst.
Our hospitals present yet sadder spectacle
One may be willing to die upon the field, in
the fierce joy of battle, and friends weep over
him as one who is lost, but whose sufferings
are gloriously ended-but who would not
shrink from life blasted, helpless, painful,
full of misery and helplessness. Thous-
ands of brave men in the hospitals are
looking forward to just such a life. And
all this loss of time, this lavish outlay of
money, this mighty sum of human misery
springs from this terrible conflict with treason.
What caused the war? Ask any man the
question, and his answer, direct or indirect,
must be the same. Honest, thinking men,
who turn at once from effect to cause answer,
slavery. Others say jeff. Davis, Cobb, Keitt
and their followers caused the war. But
slavery made JEFF. Davis, Cobb and Keitt.
Others yet, still hot with narrow prejudice,
say the abolitionists made the war. But, did
not slavery make abolitionists? There can
be no possible answer to the question which
does not point to the one great guilty cause
the fruitful source of all our woes.
And yet we must choose our words, and
measure our indignant feeling, when we speak
of slavery. Conventions are said to be
controlled by radical men of one idea,
partizans, which strike at slavery with
honest hearty words. Opposition to the man
who is the boldest, the truest, the ablest
champion of anti-slavery and the most devot-
ed supporter of the government against armed
treason, is made the rallying cry for men of
every hue and stripe.
From the antipodes of society, high to low,
rich to poor, bunker to grovelling Democrat
they reach to each other, and hand clasped in
hand, swear union against the men who say
that slavery, the undenied cause OF this war,
''must be exterminated," to save the Union
Now what do these men mean? Are they
safe and honest guides of public sentiment,
really seeking the good of the country,
or are they blind and bigoted partizans, SC
embittered by selfish disappointments and
prejudces, that they are incapable of correct
judgment or honest action?
We think the people will find no difficulty
in deciding this point, and that the verdict
they will give at the ballot box, will be such
that this mongrel piebald opposition will never
care to try the question again.

Saturday afternoon, while crossing the track.
She had heard the whistle of the approaching
train, and loosely remarked that she must
go along, or the cars might come along and
kill her. A moment afterwards she was a
corpse.
CONNECTICUT.
The annual ''statement of facts"-one of the
pet institutions of Yale college-in which the
two literary societies present the respective
claims to ''the young gentlemen who have
just entered college," has been given up. The
custom had lost its usefulness and dignity.
Five deserters from government service
all Of them bounty swindlers-were arrested

river. His command is also near at hand,
and has not been called upon to encounter
any imminent danger since its service under
Gen. Pope. His corps is not and has not
been with Gen. Mcclellan during his cam
palgn in Maryland. SO says the National In
telligencer.
Col. Kinks of the 10Th Massachusetts regi-
ment, who was reported killed, was still liv-
ing at the house of Samuel Pry in Sharps-
burg, last Wednesday, suffering from his
wounds. His left arm would have to be am
putated His recovery was doubtful, he hay
ing laid two days without surgical aid.
DR.. Edward Ii. r. Revere, assistant sur
geon of the goth Massachusetts regiment, was
killed in the late battles. Capt. VIM. S. King

achusetts regiment arrived in Baltimore, he
was at once ordered to the front Col. d.

Willingness to proceed, but suggested that his
regiment was scarcely week old. ''Why,'
sad Gen. Wool, 81 saw the regiment pass my
window this morning, and thought it was
veteran regiment; but if this is the case,
shall have to give you IL little time to harden
your boys"
Col. Edward A. Wild of the 35th regiment
lost his left arm in the battle of the 18th inst.
Lieut.. Edward Bracket of Somerville, was
killed in Wednesdays battle. He was a wor-
thy and noble man, who has left many friends
to mourn his sad death.

SHALL WE HAVE DRAFT IN WoRCEs-
TER?-To prevent it more than a hundred
more men must be raised. Only three hun
bred and forty-one men have reported them
selves at camp, distributed as follows: Capt.
Prouty II, Capt. Higginson IA, Capt. Power
81, Capt Wood SO, Capt. Baldwin 3S, Capt.
Stiles 81, Capt. Kimball l. Perhaps dozen
more have joined other regiments, making
not far from three hundred and fifty in all.
And our supposed quota is four hundred and
fifty-four. A good deal of work evidently
remains to be done.

THE REVENUE LAw.-Section So of the
revenue act provides that all persons, corpor-
ations and associations who carry on anu
trade or manufacture amounting to one thou
sand dollars year ''shall register with the
assistant assessor of the district in which he
shall reside on application for a license with
in thirty days from the first day of September
1862, and if he does not do it he is liable to a
penalty. This provision of law is applicable
to almost all trades, and people ought to lose
no time in making their applications. The
law makes it the duty of every one requiring
a license to make his own application to the
assistant assessor.
The law also provides that ''any person,
except persons peddling newspapers, bibles,
or religious tracts, who sells, or offers to sell,
at retail, goods, wares, or other commodity,
travelling from place to place in the street, or
through different parts of the country, shall
be regarded pedlar under this act" All per-
sons who wish to sell any kind of property in
the way and manner above specified should at
once make application for license. They
can protect themselves from the penalty in no
other way.
All gold plate, and silver plate exceeding
forty ounces, and carriages, which with the
harness, exceed the value of seventy-fiv dol
lars, are taxable this month, and the law
makes it the duty of the owners of such prop
erty to furnish the assistant assessor of his
district with list of it. As it is not always
convenient to ascertain the amount of plate in
troy weight it can be entered in avoridupois
weight, which can easily be reduced to troy
weight by the assistant assessor.

THR PARoLED PRIsoNERs AT ANNAPOLIS
letter from Camp Parole, Annapolis, gives
sorry account of matters at that place. The
writer says: ''Within three or four DAYS our
camp has presented more pitiable sight even
than before, by the arrival of five thousand
paroled prisoners just from Dixie, covered
with rags, many without hats, shirts or shoes.
and some with nothing but a blanket and pam
falcons to cover them. Some were in such a
condition they would not march from the
wharf through the town to camp, but avoided
observation by going round another way
Many are sick and wounded, half cared for
and all half starved when they arrived. New
er were men more thankful for piece of
bread or cup of coffee than they! They are
camped upon the bare ground, without cover
or shelter, the tents and sheds being full, and
it has been raining portion of the time since
| their arrival. Among them we find some of
our prison associates we left behind. Some
of them were in Dixie year, others only a
few days. We number about ten thousand
parOled men, and are in shiftless condition.
How long things will continue thus am una
bic to say. Some have left for their homes in
disguise, and many others would had they the
means. We belong at home until exchanged,
where we can take care OF ourselves, and
make ourselves useful. We are doing nothing
here but undermining our constitutions, while
we might be well and strong at home"

ANTIETAM CREEK.-The name of the creek
in Maryland, where the great battle was
fought last week, is pronounced as if written,
An-tee-tam, with the accent on the second
syllable. As it will probably give name to
one of the greatest battles of the war, it is i'm
portant that the correct pronunciation should
be generally understood and adopted.
