THE RE-ASSEMBLING OF OUR
LEGISLATURE,


SPRINGFIELD. Jan. l, 1868.
The Democrats can hardly wait till to-mor-
row, they arc so eager to denounce the pro-
clamation. The Egyptians, it is asserted, will
refuse to support the war on account Of the
cdict Of freedom.
The excitement wakes warm among the
different candidates Of the unterrificd Democ-
racy, for United States Senator, although
RichaFdsoIfs chances are considered ahead Of
all compe'1tors' meeting is called for Mon
aay evening hy the Democrats to dcnounce
Inc PRESIDENTS emancipation proclamation.
The candidates for Senator will have to show
their faccs' at which, Dick Merrick will take
leading part Richardson and his friends
are opposed to the meeting, as 1t will give
Merr1ck prestige with the Egyptians.
Charles Walsh Of your city, latc Democratic
candidate for Sheriff Of Cook county, is d
prominent candidate for sergeant-atzArms,
and Is likely to be successful
As ueual, large number of patriots from
Egypt are here clamorous for office.

EXTENSIVE THIEvING OPERATIoNs.-We are
informed that the name of the horse thief caught
by Deputy Sheru @. A Hitchcock, of Pttsford,
on the 29th of September last, is Amos Pierce of
New York, instead Of J.ckson as he gave his
name. A brother of Amos by the name OF
Libins was operating with him in this vicinity and
New York.
The history of this transaction is substantially
as follows About the 18th Of September they
stole pair of good horses from VIM. Fighter,
and a top buggy from Robert Weller of Gay,
Onondaga county, N. Y, and drove eoi4 team to
Chttenden, VT, in about two days nut up at
Asa E. Collins attended the state and county
fairs at Rutland, and pretended to be buying
sheep. STAYED at Collins about two weeks, dur.
ing which time they traded of, with the help O.
said Collins, one of the Fighter horses to Bow
man Z. Segar of Chttenden, and the other one
to Thomas 1annian, I'd, of Pittsford, for whict
they (Pierces) did not get half their valne
They disfgured the wagon by painting it a difer
ept COLOR raising the box higher, cushoning thu
seat new etc, etc., and did their best to trade |
away, but did lot succeed. Within these two
weeks, they stole wagon OF Russell Lincoln
Shrewsbury, nice plated harness and bride o
Leeds Billings, Rutland, two buffalo robes o
- Avery Of Pttsfeld, one horse Of William
Stone OF hancock, one morse oI AlEHSon hlle'
Of Rochester, and clothes, and boots and shoe
of other persons in Rochester. All the abov
property has been claimed, proved and take
away. There are now remaining and unclaime'
in deputy Sheriff Hitchcock's hands, two oil
horse blankets, one surciugle two horse brushes
one coat one whip, an old umbrella, one castin
rope, candles, matches and dark lantern, 70
which owners are wanted.
1t is said the Pierces belong to gang of hors
thieves who are doing large business all throug
New York, Vermont and New Hampshire. -Ru

New YORK, Nov. 20. A correspondent with
the army of the Potomac telegraphs from Wash
inpton that q decisive tattle on the RapIdan
viii lake place to-day or tomorrow.
The Heralds Washington dispatch says the
eitv has been full ofrumors, to-day, OF disasters
to Gen. Burnside's command in East Tennessee,
but up to this evening there is no confirmation
of these reports at headquarters. 1t is not be-
lieved the rebels can inhict upon him any serl-
ous disaster, or drive him from East Tennessee
He is fully posted in regard to the movements
of the rebel forces, and while there has been no
doubt that his position is seriously menaced,
every confidence is felt in his abiliny to main
tain himself against the force brought against
! him.
gentleman connected with the Army of the
Cumberland just arrived here, and who made
ouick time through, says all the indications are
hopeful and cheerful, and the prospect of de-
cisiye victory by Gen. Grant are most excellent.
A New Orleans letter to the Herald dated the
10th, says nothing later has been received from
Texas. The importance OF General Banks
movement has not been appreciated by the au-
taorities at Washington. For months General
Banks has appealed to the Secretary Of War,
and indeed all the members Of the Cabinet, urg-
ing upon them the Importance OF reinforcing
his army, so that vigorous, active and success
full camp agn could he conducted through the
winter.
The Reralds army of the Potomac dispatch
of the 10th says the sick men have been sent tc
the rear. Though Lee may have the advantage
of position in the approaching great battle
which cannot be long deferred, yet be has no
the advantage of superior numbers, nor OF tina
patriotic sentiment which will impell our sol
ders to fight as never before, animated as the,
are by the hope of greater victory than they
ever yet have won.

CHATTANOOGA, Nov. 10. Deserters from the

time since the expulsion of Bragg from Middle
Tennessee. The Decentralization of the rebels
increases daily. On the other hand General

ments in the veteran regiments are more numer

WAsHIxGroN, Nov. 10. The supplies sent by

rumor thar the rebels permitted clothing, but
no food, to be sent TO our prisoners, Is an error
Fortv.eleht thousand rations sent by the Secre-
tarv of War last week, had been received, and a
letter to the GoYernmet from Gen. Neal Dow,
states that they had been distributed.
