THE FIGHT AT LAvEXGEE.
FEDERAL ACCOUNT.

The Nashville pspers of tbe 9Th contain &C.
counts Of the affair at Lavergne. The Uniou's
account il very lengthy; gotten up ON the glo-
rffieation order, and claims great victory.

CHATTANOOGA: 9
SUNDAY MORNING. ocT. II. 1852.

sw THIS patriotic citizens Of the old
North State have taken steps to provide for
the education of: The sons Of ali tho1 who
died in tho service Of their country during
this vsg. Every State should do something
towards providing for the families of those
men Who haxs nobly sacrificed themselves
in the s,srvice of their country. The
Congress Of the Confederate States has thus
far nost signally failed 10 discharge itH duty
on this sabject, but we hope it is a mere
oversight ind not an intentional wrong. At
the time the first conscript bill was passed
provision should have been made for che
support, or at least partial support, of the
families of soldiers who died or were dis
abled in the army. 1t may be said that this
would have imposed heavy burdens upon
the property of the country. This we do
not deny, but we insist that Tao property Of
the country should bear the burdens ct this
war rs much az the individual members OF
the community. AS it now is a man who
has a large amount Of property, if he Is not
subject to military duty, is not suffering
from the war but very little, if anything.-
The high price of what he has to sell much
more than compensates him for the taxes he
l.as TO pay. Many men are absolutely max
ing money by the war and at the same time
incurring none of its dangers and hardships.
We say let system Of policy be adopted
that will place the burdens of this struggle
upon property as we'll as persons. Some
men are neither willing to fight nor to pay
to sustain our cause. Congress has -ptssed
law to make men perform military sGfvice
aud now We want to see them carry out their
police aud make those who are not COMPEL
ed to fight DO something in the way of pay
ing to sustain this war aud to provide some
thing for the families Of those who have diet
or.are disabled in the service.

s0- We noticed, some days since, that
wounded aud sick: soldiers, ON arriving here,
were put to considerable inconvenience in
getting food and place to stay at while
here. If they have plenty of money the
difficulty is not insurmountable, but many
of them have but little if any money and
are unable to pay dollar for supper besides
paying for lodging. Something shonld be
done to remedy this. We wonld sugges,
that the commissary ut this post be author,
lied to furnish food for sick and wounded
soldiers who arc returning bone either on
furlough or discharged. TIC -6qv-rnasaa,
furnishes them transportation and it should
also furnish the means Of subsistence willis,
going to their homes or on their return tc

by no means. IF man wants wheat, or
four bacon, or lard, or any other article,
let him buy it from the original producer,
and if he wantsso small quantity that he
cannot so for it, lie, any number of neigh
bors join together sad send for such articles
a. they need Tn cities end towns let the
corporate authorities aid the citizens in OBJ
tanning articles Of necessity at fair rates
Small sums Of money might be placed by
citizens in the hands Of committee appoint
ed for the purpose, who would send for such
things as were needed. In that way each
man would get articles of necessity at cost
and carriage. 1t might be necessary for
the corporate authorities or citizens who
would unite together, to employ an agent at
fair compensation to purchase the articles.
II may be said that spcculators would repre-
sent themselves as agents and buy up articles
if this plan were adopted. To obviate this
objection u any man who buys large
quantity Of wheat: -four. bacon, or any other
article, s6dI f,s ,---aorisy for so doing be-
fore the people sell ID him. This, We know,
would be an inoonvenient method of getting

would cure itself and the country is not In

be very Objectionable, bat it would BIZ much
better for individuals and for the country
generally than submitting to the exorbitans

The October Elections.

In the recent elections held in Iowa, Ohio.
Indiana and Pennsylvania the result, SD far as
We can learn from the dispatches, is as follows,
showing what the Republicans have gained aud
what lost.
IowA.-In the present Congress, Iowa has
but two members. They were both Republi-
cans She will have sir in the next Congress
all Republicans gain Of joSr. The State
ticket is Republican-majority from 5000 to
10000.
OHIo.-The Democratic State ticket will
have 10000 or $4,000 majority. OF the q
Congressman, the Democrats claim Is. Las,
year they had eight. II these figures are cor.
rect, there will be Democratic gain Of 6ve.
INpr.NA.-The Democratic State Ticket will
have at least 1000 majority. The Democrats
claim 1--WE Congressman. Last year they had
fOur-gain Of one
PENNsYLvASIA-There are no new figure.
about the State Ticket. The Congressman will
probably stand Is Republicans and Demo
Gratis. If so, it will be q Democratic gain OF
tuo.
In these four States, therefore, the Democrats
seem to have gained e ghs, and the Republicans
four-making the aggregate Democratic gain
-four. Nothing to crow over.
The official canvass may alter these figures
somewhat, but it is not probable that the sub
stantial result will be materially changed.
Large Democratic gains in the elections this
fall; may be expected from the undenied and
undeniable fact that a great disproportion Of
the voters who have volunteered in the service
Of their country are Republicans.
