AS the time approaches for the meet

pleasure to notice the oagorness maniles-
ted by the citizen of other states for the
reelection of Ben. Wade to the Senate.
His claims upon the people OF Ohio are
fully admitted and endorsed in every loyal
section Of the Union. His record Of out
spoken, unswe wing loyalty in the dark
est hours of the country, his devotion to
best interests Of the cause, his able and
manly course in the Senate, e,---each and
all have endeared him to the hearts Of
loyal men, and with scarce dissenting
voice they urge his reelection.

Another Yankee Cavalry Raid
From the Richmond Enquirer, sept. IL


The Leafs turning yellow, the chinqua-
pin burs are bursting, the golden maize Is
growing hard upon the stalk, and yet not
another Yankee cavalry raid calls the mil
tia to glory; not since early watermelon
season has our gallant governor had occasion
for his martial cloak and field glass. Where
is the once restless and obsequious Colonel
Spears? Is Bottoms Bridge his ne p5us
ultra? We hope not, our mllltiamen hope
not The tin cups of the latter hang dry in
the halls Of their fathers, and their haver
sacks are lank, wanting the three days ra
tons; their muskets repose grimly in inglo
rieus quietude in their bed chambers. Col.
Brownies cavalry are also spelling for
taste of the Yankee troopers quality, and
if he don't make haste and come along they
will all in disgust be translated out Of his
glorious command by virtue Of writs Of
habeas corpus, and the sleek, black horse of
the gallant Colonel will be brought back,
unwreatbed in laurel, from Bacon Quarter
Branch to his oats in the city. In the name,
therefore, of the city militia, who are long
ing for an autumn trip, for sniff of the
pleasant country air, and OF the atoremen-
toned Colonel, who is thirsting for blood,
We extend to Colonel Spears knightly
greeting, and ask him to come along"
The air is cool and bracing, and the roads
hereabouts magnificent. Then why not,
o dashing Colonel (wLilom Sergeant ma
jor), cry havoc, and let slip your dogs Of
war? The banks of the Pamunkey are
very malarious at this season, then come to
the purcr air Of the highlands. The mil
ltary would love to see you, and the chill
dren want sensation.

The Virginia Senate OH the
War.

In the Virginia Senate, On the 18th in,
slant, Mr.. Garrison, of Accomac, submitted
a preamble and resolutions, the former rep
resenting the propriety of declaring what
is the present purpose of this common
wealth in regard to the war. The resolu
tions set forth:
l. That it is the settled determination of
Virginia never to yield, come what may.
q That this being her purpose, every eff,
fort to secure peace upon any terms other
than the independence of the Confederate
States is reasonable in its efforts, etc.
3 That the reverses should nerve the
people to greater exertions, and all attemts
to sow the seeds of discomfort should be
boldly resisted and discountenanced.
4. Reiterates the declaration made by
the preceding Legislature in regard 90
maintaining the integrity of the state.

Our exchanges are filled with correspon
dencc speaking of the number of deserters
from the rebel army. AS the Southern pa
pers mention the same thing, the demo. ali
cation OF the rebel army to some extent
must be tr .e. We warn loyal men, however
not to put too much confidence in these re-
ports, Nor TO believe, altogether, that the
whole rebel army is falling to pieces We
have read such pretty stories before since
the war began, and yet when battles come
off the enemy was found in considerable
force and have uotssshawn any reluctance in
fghting. However much discomfort there
may be- in the Southern armies, they are
still compact body Of determined men,
who will probably do some considerable
hard fighting yet before they are overcome.

Prayer by &ev. Samuel Barnes.
The Speaker announced that when the
House ad ourned on Saturday it had under
consideration the contested election case,
between Ephraim Bee and Jas. Fl. Diss
Debar, of Doddridge county.
Mr.. Van Wrinkle yielded the floor to Mr.,
Diss Debar, when the latter gentleman
spoke two hours in support of his claims to
the seat.
Mr.. Wheat said he did not care how the
case was decided, the contestant could not
take his seat uader the taaU; he was aware
that he had made many enemys by the
course he had pursued in this matter, but
he knew he had none, as far as he was con-
cerned, he did what he thought was just
and proper, and if any one did not like him
they could "lump him."
Mr. Bee was about to address the House,
when on motion recess was taken till half
past two o'clock.

The Army ofNorthern Virginia

Here are some interesting statements
concerning Lees army, written by soldier
belonging to the same. The letter contain
ing them bears date of August Il. BY
struggling, sickness, and from other causes,
large numbers of absentees are reported
from the army. No effort should be spared
to send these men to the front at once
Enrolling officers should enforce the law
rigidly. TIE great trouble is, these enroll
ing officers are generally ignorant OF Their
duties, or too corrupt or indifferent to the
success of our army, to perform them. An
other evil, not an evil only, but curse, Is
the conduct of conscript surgeons ana To-
Cal country doctors. Thousands OF men at
home have been there for months, and will
stay as long as they choose, simply upon the
certificates of disability, furnished by whole
sale, from the shops of men who, in their
mistaken kindness to their friends, are
jeopardizing the safety of the Republic
This matter should be looked into closely.
1t is a subject which merits the earnest con.
sideration of the authorities, and every good
citizen should use every effort to bring it to
their attention. The appointment OF Gen
eral Hood as Lieutenant General OF the
Cavalry of Virginia is giving great satisfac-
ton, especially among the cavalry them
selves. Confidence in General Stuart is
not so strong as it at one time was. he
has pretty well played out. Something
was necessary to be done to revive the spirit
of the cavalry of Virginia. The appoint,
ment of General Hood will, I think, very
effectually accomplish it. The appointment
of General Hampton as Major-General is
one fit to be made. If he had been in
command of our cavalry division for the
| last twelve months its condition would now
be..far different, Richmond Enquirer, Sept
| 18Th.
