FURNITURE EsTABLIsIIMENT-In our ad-
vertisng columns to-day will be found the
favor of Mr. Corey, proprietor of the extern
sive Furniture Mandatory and Ware Rooms
on Exchange street, in this city. Mr. Corey
has been known throughout the State for a
quarter of century, and his wares are as
familiar as household gods. At Windham,
where he has the advantage of water power,
) his chair work is principally done, except the
painting; and in this city he has steam appli-
ances which are brought to bear in the manu-
facture of such articles as are made here. His
warehouse is five stories on the street. and ey-
cry story is filled to repletion. In stroll
through his extensive rooms we saw a sofa of
black walnut, very deliberately carved, gotten
up for exhibition at the Mechanics Fair, the
cost of which was about S400. 1t is one of
the finest pieces of work, doubtless, ever pro-
dueed in New England. We are told that in
years gone by, when the reputation of Coreys
establishment was not SO well known as at
present, it was not unfrequently the case, that
gentlemen wanting very nice articles for their
palatlal residences, would 90 to Boston and
New York to purchase, and after getting home
with their choice purchases, would discover
upon some obscure portion of the articles CO.
greys name, showing that they had returned
to the city in which they were manufactured.
1t is not our purpose to exalt Mr.. C.'s estab-
hshment at the expense of any other, but we
refer to it, as we would to others. as an evil
dence Of one of the industrial enterprises of
our own city.

Order of the Governor of MARYLAND

BALTIMORE, Sept. 30.
The following has just been issued by Gov.
Bradford:
Executive order-State of Maryland-Execu-
tive Department, Annapolis, Sept 20.
The expulsion of the rebel army from the
soil of Maryland should not be suffered to
pass without proper acknowledgment and
the cordial thanks of her authorities to those
who were chiefly instrumental in compelling
that evacuation. / would tender, therefore, on
behalf Of the State of Maryland to Major Gen
eral Mcclellan and the gallant officers and
men under his command my earnest and hearty
thanks for the distinguished courage skill and
gallantry with which that achievement was
accomplished. 1t reflects lustre upon the
ability of the commander-in-chef and the
heroism and endurance of his followers, that
the country everywhere recognizes, and that
even our enemies are constrained to ackpoWl-
edge. To Governor Curtin of PENNSYLVANIA.
and to the militia of his State who rallied with
such alacrity at the first symptoms of an inva-
sion, our warmest thanks are also due The
readiness with which they crossed the border
and took their stand beside the MARYLAND brig
ade show that the border is in all respects but
in an ideal line, and that in such a cause as
now unites us Pennsylvania and Maryland are
but one. l cannot forbear to notice i'm this
connection the conduct of our own regiments
that took part in the recent battles. All re-
ports concur in representing their gallantry as
all their State could desire. The numbers of
their killed and wounded and their torn and
tattered standards bear witness to the position
they occupied in the field. To the I'd, Sd and
9th Maryland regiments, the pummell legion,
the 1st regiment of the Home brigade and the
lst Maryland artillery, participants in the re-
cent severe struggles, would therefore tender
the thanks which are so justly their due.
Signed, A. w. BRADFoRD,
BY the Governor.

Crittenden, and Granger, Brigadier Generals
Jackson and johnson, Capt jenkins, Chief of
staff, and other staff officers. The procession
formed at the Gait House at B O'Clock. 1t was

were taken to Christ's Church, where Rev.
Dr. Talbot ofliciated, assisted by Mr.. Allange

cording to Gen. Nelson's request.
Yesterday it was rumored that Gen. Buell.

in command of the army of the Ohio.

Gen. Lee Preparing to Cross the
Potomac.

NEW YORK, Sept. 30
The steamers Oroe and Jersey Blue brought
back from Newbern 5000 boxes of bread and
230 barrels of beef, condemned by the govern
ment.
A letter to the Commercial. dated Washing
ton 2Sth, states that 27000 troops left that city,
whittier it is not stated.
The Washington Star of the 29th reports
reconnaissance to WaIrenton Junction with
out finding any signs of the enemy 1t doubts
the rumors that Lee is making serious move
ments TO recross into Maryland. 1t says
10000 troops left Washington last night in one
direction and another body in another direc-
ton.
The Star also says it is generally believed
here that JEFF. Davis is about to send $4,000
troops on a forced march across the mountains
TO Wheeling, thence to Pittsburg. Pennsylva-
mia, and Cincinnati, and there forming june
ton with Bragg and Kirby Smith in Kentucky.
When Gen. Mcclellan crosses in large force
into Virginia, the balance of the rebel army is
to fall back on Richmond.
The Star intimates that Gen. Heintzleman
is in position to intercept the latter move
ment if made
Washington correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Inquirer says ii is rumored that the
reason of the existing quiet in the armies on
the Upper Potomac, is that commissioners are
on the way from the Confederate Congress to
propose terms of peace. 1t is said to be on
something like the following terms: eloyal
States are to take all the territories, Missouri,
Tennessee, Kentucky and Maryland, and make
them free or slave States as may best please
them. The cotton States are TO be permitted
to have Congress of their own to regulate
their own domestic affairs, and in all other
things to be again as one and inseperable peo-
pie; for defensive and offensive operations
against other countries to be il unity; in all
matters of postal and revenue service to be the
same as heretofore; they pledging themselves
to return all government property as they
found it. They, in addition to a seperate Con-
gress TO regulate their peculiar institutions, to
be permitted Senators and Representatives in
our Congress, in such numbers as their free
white population entities them.
A special dispatch to the Post says il is be-
lieved here that Gen. Lee is preparing for
ward movement from Winchester 1t is
probable, however, that he will find enough
defensive work on his hands without crossing
the Potomac.
DIR. Brisbane is in Washington on his way to

Evacuation Of Cumberland Gap
The Gap completely Blocked Up.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 80.
Gen. Morgan left Cumberland Gap about
two weeks ago with all his forces, aud is sup
posed to be marching in a north easterly d-
reetion. so as to strike the Ohio somewhere
about Portsmouth. He brought away all his
artillery and stores and blocked up the Gap
with stones so as to render it impossible.
Drafting takes place in this city tomorrow.
Capt Prentice, son OF Geo. ID. Prentice of
the Louisville Journal, who was wounded in
the Augusta, KY, fight died to-day.
NEW YORK, Sept 80.
a special dispatch to the Herald from Gin
cinnati tonight says, intelligence has just been
received from Gen. Morgan, who has eyacuat-
ed Cumberland Gap with his entire force and
is now well on his way to the Ohio river. On
evacuating the Gap, Gen. Morgan sprung the
mines closing the passage through the noun
toms so completely as to make il entirely inn
passible. All the stores, artillery and muni-
tians of war were either brought away or
destroyed, not leaving the value of five dollars
to the enemy.
Gen. Morgan's forces are much larger than
is generally supposed He has not only the
veterans of his command, but has been receiv-
ing daily additions of hundreds of the loyal
citizens of East Tennessee. He is strong in
artillery and cavalry.
1t is known that Marshall and a portion of
Kirby Smiths rebel forces have moved to in
tercept them. Gen. Morgan desires to meet
them.
Important movements have been ordered
against the forces of Kirby Smith and Mar
shall, which will seriously interfere with their
plans. We expect important news from that
region hourly at Louisville.
Gen. Buell. is fully organized and fully ade-
quate to meet all the force of the rebels in
Kentucky. A large portion of our forces are
veterans.

make arrangements to give our citizens two

A Circular.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 80
From casualties in the field and from alb
sence by reason of Sickness many volunteer
regiments have not had sufficient number of
officers to command them. 1t is important
that vacancies caused by death and resigna-
tions be filed with the least possible delay
The Governors of the several States arc earn
estly requested to fill those vacancies by the
promotion of non-commissioned officers and
privates who have distinguished themselves in
the field, or who have shown a capacity for
military command. Without the hope of pro-
motion there is no encouragement TO faithful
performance of duty, and no stimulus to deeds
of valor; moreover the discipline and efficiency
of an army depends in great measure upon
the character and qualifications of its officers.
Without good officers, the very best soldiers
soon become a mere dsorderly mob, the in
efficiency of which is increased by the increase
of its members.

thence TO Warrenton Junction, where they
met a considerable force of the enemy. There
