will be at least three days before the first,

~. sTUART's CAVALRY RAID.
On the 10th of October, the Rebel General,
Stuart, made his raid into Pennsylvania.
returning into Virginia, having made the
entire circuit of our army. On the 18th.
Gen. Mcclellan reported to Gen. Halleck
the result of the raid, and ascribed its sue
cess to the deficiency of our cavalry. and
urged "the imperative necessity of at once
supplying this army, including the COM
mand of Gen. Banks, with a sufficient num-
Der of horses to remount every dismounted
cavalry soldier within the shortest possible
time. If this is not done we shall be con
stantly exposed to Rebel cavalry raids.',
To this Gen. Halleck replies: "Your tel
egram off P. M, yesterday, is Just received.
AS have already informed you, the Gov
ernment has been, and is making every
possible effort to increase the cavalry force.
Remounts are sent to you as rapidly as they
can be procured. The President has read
your telegram, and directs me to suggest that
II the enemy had more occupation south of the
riUer, his cavalry WotLd not be so likely to
make raids north of it,"

We present our Weekly paper To-day In
new dress, in type unrivalled for beauty
and clearness, and challenge comparison
with any other weekly Journal printed in
or out of the State, in size, appearance and
real value, and ask that preference which
we feel warranted in saying we have fairly
earned. We print an extra edition and
send many copies to persons not subscri-
bers, hoping that they will aid us in giving
the Hawk-Eye still wider circulation and
larger field of labor and usefulness.

CAvALRY.-We are glad to note that Gen.
Hooker has a very considerable force OF
Cavalry in his command. At the recent
visit ofthe President to the army of the Po-
tomac, he reviewed the cavalry under Gen.
Stoneman, numbering, as reported, twelve
thousand men. Thisis probably but a por-
ton Of this arm, and indicates that he has q
due proportion of it tomake his army effec-
tive. The review is said to veproved en-
tirely satisfactory. eE g..

gye The Haunting of emblems of disloy-
atty, the wearing of "Copperheads" and
'.Butternuts," the preaching of "Peace!'
s'Peace!!" do not seem to advance the VAL
landigham party to any visible extent. AT
least such is the conclusion to be drawn
from recent election figures. The so-called
Democratic party is lead by as black set
of traitors as can be found any where in
the c. s. A. That is what is the matter
When they clamored for a more vigorous
prosecution of the War in October, they
won at the polls. But warmed by the sun
shine of success won by fraud, they boldly
threw off the cloak and stood forth acknowl-
edged sympathisers with rebellion, boast
ing their respect and regard for jeff. Davis
and the rebel Government, and their ha-
tired for Mr.. Lincoln and the Legitimate
Government, and they have gone flickering
to the shades of eternal infamy, loathed by
all loyal people and hated even by their
own dupes. ".Sic transit" &c. fsit

s.,y- The canal at yictsbur, ;s ST;

Ess- The canal at Vicksburg is still
represented as a failure. Before the COM
pletion Of the canal last summer, the
Mississippihad fallen too low to have any
effect in washing out the cutoff, aud the
people were advised that the first food
would perform the work thoroughly
Since the second investment OF Vicksburg
the stage of water in the river has been
rising steadily, yet the-cut-off still obsti,
nately refuses to be "washed out" The
river has now reached such food height
as to threaten the security of the troops
encamped upon the bend, and the prayer
of correspondents is that 1t may rise no
higher. 1t is positively asserted that the
current has had no effect upon the ditch,
but statement appeared in Western
paper. that :, small light draft boat has
passed through it, to the great dissatisfac-
ricn of the rebels upon the eastern bank.
II this be true, the river must have
widcned the ditch to considerable extent,
as its original dimensions would not have
permitted the passage of a barge. With
the immense force now investing the city,
cutoff large enough to float a gunboat
through might have been shoveled out in
two or three weeks, without waiting
doubtfully for the action of the river in
enlarging the ditch.
