NEW YORK, Nov. 3.
A correspondent Of tho Herald says the

slowly but surely into the hostile territory,
viii be accelerated to rate, which will ere
long bring us to the main body of the enc.

be. One Of the striking features OF the ad-
vance so far bas been the almost entire ccssa-
ton of stragy iers. / was surprised at this,
but soon learned that 1t was owing to o
most judcious system Of provost marshalship,
by which the men are kept with their rcgi-
ments and ranks under certain penalties.
The Herald Washington dispatch says q
scouting party in the direction Of Dumfreys
report that they met a body Of rebel cavalry
about seven miles this side of that place, and
were compelled to retreat. They obtained
information that rebel reinforccmcnts arc
constantly arriving ut Warrenton.
The Centreville correspondent Of the Times
says tho rebel Gen. Walker with III 900
men, were driven from Upperyillo through
Thoroughfaro Gap.

WOODEN MILL. The new wooden mill
which has been in process Of building at
Doughty's Falls Village, in North Berwick,
by the North Berwick Company, is now com.
pletcd and tho machinery is very nearly in
working order. It will commence running
Immediately. The old mill, upon tho site Of
which the new mill stands, was burned one
year ago last Sunday.
Tho gentlemen who constitute the "North
Berwick Company" are not only men Of
means, but what is far better, they arc also
men of we'll known business tact and energy,
and thoroughly understand every department
Of the enterprise in which they are now en-
gagged.
The mill now completed is an ornament
to the village in which it is situated, and
cannot fail to add largely to its business
prospects. The "North Berwick Company
deserve we'll at tho hands Of the citizens Of
North Berwick.

The nearest historical parallel IN mod
ern times 10 the present position Of the
United States, is that Of France during
the great revolution in 1898, after the
execution Of Louis XVI The Govern
ment Of the Republic was harrasssd with
ali manner Of domestic difficulties, from
factions, conspiracies, rebellions, and e.
nances disordered TO the last degree of
confusion and discredit In the midst
OF these internal troubles, war was de-
clared against France, not by England
alone, but by Austria, Prussia, Holland,
Spain, Portugal, Sardinia, Naples, the
Pope, and several Of the German Prinoi-
palities-in oil thirty States, great and
small, the greatest being the chief pow
ers Of Europe and the world.
They took the field with great armies,
and approached France from every point :
this, too, at a time when in France whole
provinces and large cities like Lyons,
Toulon and Orleans were in arms against
the Republic, and the revolt in many
places formidable and for time success
iul To meet these various enemies, the
French Convention at first called out
100000 men. This force did not prove
sufficient, and n few months later a de-
cree was issued putting in permanent
requisition every citizen. All the young
unmarried men, or widowers without
children, from the ages of eighteen to
twenty five were TO compose the first
levy. They were TO assemble immedi-
ately in the chief towns Of the districts,
TO put themselves under drill aud TO be
ready 10 start fOr the scene Of war at a
moments notice.
The men between twenty-five and
thirty were notified 10 get ready, and
meanwhile were required TO suppress the
revolt of the Vcndeans and other insur-
gents and TO keep the peace of the inter-
Tor. The men between thirty and sixty
were held in reserve for the more gradual
arming of the population. In certain
parts, such as the Departments adjoining
La Fendee, Lyons, Toulon and the Rhine,
the whole population able to bear arms
was at once called out. The means en-
ployed to arm, equip, and subsist these
levies, were adapted to the circumstances
The first levies produced in a month six
hundred thousand men, but these were
not soldiers and for four or five months
the armies of the Republic suffered a
continuous series of disasters from pan
les and want of skill in both troops and
commanders But the tide at length
turned, and, the Republic not only ex-
PEELED the invaders, but carried its VIC
torious standard into the adjacent coun-
tries. What France did then, the United
States can do now, If the exigencies OF
the case demand it.

of the most beautiful and thrilling dra-

able and true representative all the
gushing love, the deep devotion, the total
absence Of any selfish feeling SO strongly
and practically given in the authors ideal,
seemed TO find an echo in the actress
nature, and talent to give living reality

corOnal fame is wreathing about her
brow. CLAUDE HAMILTON was as usual
excellent as "St Cyr." Messrs. EVER

them. In fact no performance of the
company has gone of better. We hope
soon TO see Lucille on the bills again

A WRESTLING On WEIL.--A novel in
cident occurred on the widow McClintock
Farm on Oil Greek, one day last week.
That portion of the tubing Of the Van
Slyke well which runs into the receiving
tanks from the well, was removed, in or
der to make some repairs, leaving the
conductor pipes still in the well. On
Friday morning the inhabitants of that
region were startled by the sound Of
gigantic steam whistle, and found that it
proceeded from this well. The gas force
ing up through the pipe, had probably
met with some obstruction, which caused
it to perform in this way. The scream
of this whistle was tremendous and could
be heard several miles.
