Henry CLAW and AboIitIonism.

The Louisville Journal in reply to a cor
respondent by the name of "Benton,'' who
had attempted to quote Henry Clay in justi-
ication of the course of the Republicans,
replies as follows: -
1t is not matter for conjecture as to how
the great Clay. if he were now living, would
look upon the Administration party, into
which Mr.. Benton and his factious asso-
c!ates are vigorously seeking to manage the
Union party CT Kentucky, at the risk Of
merging Kentucky herself into the rebellion.
His own words leave no room for conjecture
on this. 81 have had ;" said the great Clay,
when the party now in power was forming
and with special reference to the formation
of this Republican party, great hopes and
likely to conduce to the honor, the pros perity,
and the glory of my country. But il it is
to be merged into a contemplate Abolition
party, and If Aboltionism is to be engrafted
on the Wing creed, from that moment l
renounce the party and cease to be a Wing.

give my humble support for the Presidency
to that man, to whatever party he may be-
long, who is uncontaminated with fanatcsm,
rather than to one who, crying out all the
time and aloud that he is a Wing, main
tains doctrines utterly subversive of the Con-
stitution and the Union'
If the great Clay would have thus repu-
dated party on whose creed Abolitionism
was engrafted, with what augmented scorn
would he, if he were alive to-day, have re-
pudiated party of whose creed A bolitionism
is not a graft, but the roots, stocks and

BY TELEGRAPH.

New YORK, September THE Head
quarters dispatch of the 9th to the Herald
says that prisoners deny that Lee is receiving
any large reinforcements, and say the army
is being rapidly depleted by desertion.-
This is also confirmed by citizens who have
come in our lines near the river and Gull
pepper.
Passes for over 5 900 contrabands, to go
to Washington, have been granted since our
army came from Maryland. There is
scarcely slave now to be found east of the
mountains and north of the Rappahannock,
who is not to old for service, or too worth
less to enjoy freedom. ..
On Friday, portion of Buford's Cavalry
crossed the river at United States Ford, and
traversed the rebel country some distance
overland, and saw no rebel troops except 8
few pickets, who fled when our cavalry APP
peared in sight. 1t is not thought the enemy
have any troops there, except few cavalry
pickets between the RapLahannock and
Rapidan Rivers. The sanitary condition of
the army is improving rapidly, with re-
turn of cool weather.

PHILADELPHIA, September THE trans
port New Jersey, from Charleston on the
3'' has arrived. Operations were progress
sing favorsbly.
Ga the 1st there was a general engage
ment between the iron cads and Forts
Sumpter, Wagner and Moultre. Much
damage was done to the forts.
The fleet Captain, Oscar G. Badger, sue
cessor to Captain Rodgers, had his leg bro
ken by a shell. 1t is feared amputation
will be necessary.
The lronsides was at anchor, but not en-
gagged, when the New Jersey left.
-Four monitors had gone up, ready for &C
ton, and were nearly abreast of Fort Sump-
ter, preparatory to making a new attack.
The land batteries were firing night and
day. The bombardment ofthe city had not
been resumed, but new batteries would open
at the proper time.
The army was in fine spirits. General
Gilmore was working with the utmost Gu
ergy, and all were confident of success.

WASHINGTON, September 6-The state
ment made by the Times that Quarterm aster
General Meigs had been removed by being
sent into exile, on inspection duty, is true
The statement made by US that the Chief of
Ordnance Bureau had also been removed, is
likewise true. Another great bureau of the
War Departn ent will soon have young blood
injected into its administration.
A New Orleans letter, dated August g.
to the World, describes the military and DO
litical situation in the Department of the
South. The movement on Mobile had un-
dou btedly been abandoned. No indications
of such m ovement. and the situation of af-
fairs in the army and navy seemed to pre-
clude the possibility of it.
Preparations, however, are going forward
suggesting new and interesting campaign.
The Confederate forces, who, since the
evacuation of Brashear City, had not been
idle on the other side of the bay and along
the Teche, were understood to be concen-
trated for an offensive raid or invasion
through that part of Louisiana supposed to
be held by our forces. The rebel forces
were gathere at St. Martinvile, New Iberia,
Franklin and Cam Brsland. The plan of
the rebel campaign, as stated by deserters,
contemplates marching into La Fourche,
once conquered by Weitzel, and again re-

NEW York, Sept. S.-The Times Morris
Island letter states that the enemy has late
~ been REINFORCED with 1000 troops from
Lees army. They are encamped on Sull-
vans Island.
1t is impossible to hold out to the public
at this time any brilliant prospects of imme-
date active operations. The season is get
ting very inclement, thus rendering it a
matter of some doubt if Admiral Dahlgren
can succeed in his devices.
Another important point to be taken into
consideration is the opinion of the Admiral
that Sumter is not silenced. In that par
ticular the belief of Gen. Gilmore differs
widely from that of Admiral Dahlgren, the
former claiming to have silenced the fort
eight days ago, basing his assumption upon
made aud corroborated bv Rebel
prisoners and deserters.
AS the fate of Sumter has the most inn
portant connection with the operations of
the fleet the Admiral does not like to ven
ture an attack until the fact of Sumter being
rendered useless is established beyond a
doubt.
His chief pilot and others have been at q
favorable distance tc observe, and assert that
he northwest wall of Sumter is as sound as

General Morgan--His Command.

From the Knoxville Chronicle, August Is.
Innumerableareports,w without any founda-
ton whatever, have been circulated by both
the Federal and Southern press, concerning
General Morgan and his command.
We learn from his Inspector General th at
his command, just before the late raid, num-
bered 5000. He crossed the Cumberland
with 1850 men. Two hundred and fifty or
three hundred were detailed for special serv-
ice in Kentucky. More than one-half of
this Der returned to Tennessee. He
crossed the Ohio River with 2,O75 men,
Four hundred of this body recrossed into
Virginia. He has nearly four thousand ef-
fective men now in the Confederacy. One
thousand of his command are now at Nor
ristown. In about two weeks at least two
thousand of bis command will be collected
together in this section.
Morgan and his imprisonment will only
arouse his men to more daring acts of des-
peration.

WASHING TON, Sept. Tt is represented
that when &c neral Burnside arrived before
Kingston, the enemy fell back and retreat
ed At this point a cavalry force was sent
from General Rosecrans from Chattanooga,
eighty miles south, and joined Gen. Burn
sides forces.
The latter rushed on his column to Sodon,
where sharp fight took place The enemy
was completely routed, with loss. Our
casualties in all the skirmishes were trif1ing.
Gen. Burnside met with slight resistance.
The receipts to the Treasury, from taxes.
on the Sd of September, are the largest ever
reported on one day from the same source.
They were, on account Of the internal
revenue, 1927 $40; on account of the Gus
toms, in United States notes, S58,7 no, and
IN coin, 1851, 10Y, making, in all, $7O7 1862.

WHAT DOUGLASS WOULD HAVE DONE
The same causes that have contributed so
largely to wean hundreds of thousands of
Northern men from the war policy of the
Administration, would have made Dougla
had he lived, one of the most ecided peace
men of the day. In his speech at SPRING
field, Ill, short time before his death,
wishing to quiet the apprehensions of many
Of his personal and political friends that the
Administration would prosecute the war to
free the negroes, instead of to put down The
rebellion and restore the Union, he said:
II will never sanction or acquiesce in any
warfare whatever upon the Constitutional |
rights or domestic institutions of the people
Of the Southern States. [AppIause.l On
he contrary, if there was an attempt to in
,ade those rights. to stir up servile insurrec-
ion among their people, would rush to
heir rescue, and interfere, with whatever
# strength might possess, to defend them
rom such calamity"
Douglas, like the great body of the peo-
lie of the North, was imposed upon by the
of Lincoln. After the Abolition
eaders had enlisted the patriotic sympathies
the people, they took advantage of tn en-.
nd made them subservient to freeing the
aves instead of restoring the Union
douglas, had he lived, would have been the
'ader of the opposition to the present
espotism at Washington.-Cin.E Enquirer.

THH WAR NEWS.

We have little to add to what is contain
ed In the kilograms copied in another part
of this paper Lees position in Virginia
implies that he is on the watch for striking
q blow, skirmishes between out posts and
pickets frequently occurring.
The operations at Charleston are still re-
ported as progressing favorably, though the
progress is not as yet attestsd by any signal
result. Last week it was supposed that
Sumpter was silenced, but it seems since to
be capable of further resistance has again
been bombarded. A very heavy assault
was made on Forts Wagner and Gregg. but
after two hours cannonading the Federal
feet withdrew; but are said to be preparing
for new attack. Burnside is reported to
have joined his forces with those of Rose
Grams, but Bragg still holds Chattanooga
Joe. Johnston's army seems to be holding
q position, maneuvering probably, either for
the defense of Mobile, or a junction with
Bragg, or to strike some weak point in
Grants lines. Grant is now said to be in
command of the whole line of the Mississ-
ippi, and it is rumored that Banks, instead
of moving upon Mobile will lead an inva--
sion into Texas. Price is still in Arkansas,
probably watching to make a blow in Mis-
souri, or Kansas. The condition of things
in Western Missouri is very lamentable and
prscsrious; for bad as it is, worse is appre-
hended. Further details will be found in
the dispatches.

dispatch recently sent from Kansas City to
the Associated Press, saying that large
