nearly all the militia had been sent away for the
defence of Pennsylvania, and when the chief
direction of affairs was in the hands of Il Copper
head governor. To consider this foreign mob as
an important political movement, is u gross mis-
conception of the character Of the American peo-
pie. Its effect will be TO bring upon Fernando

WASHINGTON, Oct. 26-The Treasury
Department has recently sent seven or
eight millions of dollars to the West for
the payment of troops.
To-day he Treasurer received another
package of notes from the wreck of the
steamer Ruth. This furnishes additional
proof that all the money as alleged, 3, oOo,-
600, was on board at the time of the fire.
Over 1000 rebel prisoners are to be re.
moved to-marrnw from the Old Capitol
for exchange. ~
1t is not known in military circles that
Bragg has been recently reinforced from
Lees army, nor is it believed. Reports
from General Burnside, received yesterday,
show that he is rendering good service ia
East Tennessee, and has frequently driven
back accommodating parties of herebels.
g Active operations by the army of the
Cumberland have been retarded, complete
and safe communication for supplies not
having yet been established, but they
will soon be perfected. 4p

foot slipped and the gun was discharged.
The ball entered the mouth, came ont at

Gen. Rosecrans in Cincinnati.

CINcINNATI, October 26.-Gen, Rosecrans
arrived about IL o'clock this morning, and
WINS escorted to the Burnett House by an
immense crowd of citizens. He was en-
Enthusiastically welcomed through the entire
line of march. Judge Storer introduced
him to the assemblage, and said his fellow
citizens of Cincinnati, appreciated the work
he has accomplished for the county. He
assured him of their mistaken confidence.
While he has never dishonored his native
state the state has never forgotten him.
He alluded to his removal from the Army
of the Cumberland. He said the people
would require the records upon which that
action was based.
Gen. Rosecrans returned thanks for the
expression of sympathy and respect which
this public reception implied. While he
felt fattered by it he should not forget that
the heart of.the people does not go out to
individuals alone, it is principle for which
we are contending. The struggle for ma
tional life produces such assemblies. He
asked the people never to forget their duty
to the government whatever might occur
to individuals. The question as to how he
had been used he decided to leave for flu
ture time to answer. Some friends of mine
New York he said are very solicitous
aooIN my health. The Army of the Gum
6eriand links am well enough and SO do
l.. as Tor he quantity of Opium 1 have
taken, consult my druggist. New York
and Washington papers have said Generals
Crittenden and McOooh intended TO make
charges against me. They have assured
me they regret exceedingly ssch false re-
ports shonld be started. He sai0 since tho
battle of Chickamaaga he received qlet-
ter of approval from the President for his
n
charges appeared in the eastern papers
against him, he was satisfied the govern
ment was in no way responsible for them.
He expressed his readiness TO do whatever
the government desired of him.
At the conclusion of his speech cheers
were given for Rosecrans and the Army of
the Cumberland.
RoseCrans' welcome throughout was

below So
The Pittsburg Gazette of yesterday says
that the hopes entertained on Thursday
and Friday. that the recent rains would
produce a rise in. our rivers sufficient to
admit of a resumption of navigation, are
not, we regret to say, likely to be realized.
On Friday night the rain ceased, and on
Saturday both the Monougahela aud Allie
gheny rivers-commenced to recede, and on
Sunday evening, the metal mark indicated
three feet and four inches, decline of
some five or six inches. Itisevident that
but little rain fell at the head waters of
the Allegheny river, as that stream raised
but little if any. This is IL sad blow to our.
steamboatmen and tho public generally, as
all were sanguine of rise. ~. s.a
Tho Gazette adds: II is not probable that
any more of our steamers will attempt to-
90 out, now, until there is more water.--
Some two or three of them are partially
loaded, and it is not unlikely that they
will continue to receive freight until fully
freighted, so as TO be ready 10 take adyan-

Whenever the Ohio shall rise sufficiently,
the beautiful exhibition will be seen, of
somewhere about one hundred steamers
bound down that river for, St. Louis, to go
into active service in the trade that will
appear most suitable. Most of them will
go South, in Government service, or on
private expeditions. We presume there
will be sufficient business for them all. In
the mean time, there are, perhaps, not
half a dozen boats above louisville light
enough TO carry any freight to tho mouth
of the Cumberland. Owing to this fact,
nearly all army supplies have to be pur-
chased at st. Louis and shipped from
that point. Ef4 @ 5lf33g, "a
