The Foreign News.

A feast or 4 famine is our lot. The clip
per SHreH and packet Yankee arrived simultane-
ously on Tuesday morning, the latter beating
her rival two days in the passage. The war
news Is rather Indifferent, without any startling
movements in any quarter, which is only what
was expected. The election news, however, is
glorious, and shows that the North, despite the
ranking treason Of Copperheads. is firm on the
question Of putting down the rebellion. On the
whole. the news is cheering and indicates the
steady advance in the work of suppressing the
Slave-mOngers' rebellion.
Our last previous dates were 10 Oct. 2i,-our
present files run from the 25th Oct. to Nov. Q,
giving Eastern Geographic news TO the 18th.

- \ decision was given yesterday in the Ad-
miralty Court, in the case of a seaman Of the whale
ship Martha 2nd, who sued for his lay of the sea-
sons catch. He was arrested last spring. on q
charge of setting the vessel on FIRE, and kept in con-
fnement in port d ring the summer. The ship not
returning 10 port till after the day set for his trial
had passed, the prisoner was released. The present
suit was brought By him to recover 4 share Of the
ships cargo. taken during his Imprisonment. The
decision of the Court was against him, and in favor
of the ship.

From, New Orleans.

Nothing late or important is received. We
find only the following:
New Orleans dates are to the ODD. The latest from
the Army of the Gulf is up 10 the Dist, and Is of the
most cheering character. The column under Gen.
Franklin entered Opelousas at noon OF the Dist The
enemy made a stand in front at a distance of 5 miles,
but were quickly driven in. Our troops are well
supplied and in fine health and spirits. The advance
is now beyond Opelousas. The enlistment of colored
soldiers is rapidly progressing. Two white regiments
are also rapidly filing up. SO much of the Mississip-
pi il now free from guerrillas. that business is stead

These figures are enough to show that the gov
eminent will be even more heartily seconded in
future by the people of the North than it has
heretofore been. Such ballot-box victories are
worth more than so many victories on the battle
field, even though they swept from the ranks of
the rebels as many soldiers as tally votes in
majority. Though it is and must continue Il
hard, a long and bloody struggle, yet with all
the northern and border States united in aiding
the constitutional government, foreign govern
ments must see the p~ropriety of standing aloof
till every rebel has surrendered and every slave
been declared free. THIS year cannot witness
that result, but it must assuredly follow in time.
Again we say, the election victories are worth at
this ~juncture more than would be the capture of
Richmond and Charleston combined, and the
moral effect will he greater.

Petersburg are reliable, she is prepared for that
step at any moment.
By news from the Cape of Good Hope, it seems
that the privateers Alabama, Georgia, and 1us-
~calOoSa are still there, and the l.. ). steamer
Vanderbilt had also arrived there. Now that
these famous crafts have got within hailing dis
lance of each other, they may be able perhaps TO
try the virtue of their shot and shell.

The Elections.

The result of the November State elections is
as gratifying rs any loyal American could wish.
\ succession of Union victories in every State is
reported, showing that the masses arc true to the
government and determined to put down the
rebellion. Even Maryland has cast her vote i'll
favor of the Emancipation OF the slaves in that
State, and probably an act will be passed by its
Legislature this winter to carry it out. The
estimated majoritiss as reported by the telegraph
nre these.

The transatlantic Geographic news is not
very important. y summary of it will be found
on our next page. We observe among other
items that d. : Henry Ward Beecher delivered his
promised lecture on American affairs at Liver
pool, on the 18th, before Il dcnseiy crowded
audience. Fears at one time were entertained of
a riot, Southern sympathizers having placarded
the town with bills calculated to inlame the
public mind against Beecher. \ large number
of secessionists were at the meeting, and did all
they could to get up a riot. They were. how
ever, a great deal in the minority, and on the
whole, Beecher's reception was enthusiastic. A
vote of thanks 10 him was carried with great
cheering, but not unmixed with Kisses and
groans."
II is stated that the English Government :. has

of the Poles as belligerants.' There can be no

Cool IMPuDKNCE.- At the District Conven-
ton at Rutland, last W ednesday, when the del
egates from Washington County went by them
selves to select their portion of the nominating
committee, many of them were quite surprised
to find among the delegates several persons from
this County who have never been suspected at
home of being +" in favor Of sustaining the Ad
ministration in its efforts to put down the re-
Union" There are men who, for consdera-
ton, will wear any mask, and personate any
character-soldiers of fortune, who, for the time,
will serve in any ranks in which they can obtain
pay and ratons,-and several of that class of
nero enaries were evidently at Rutland We do
not hesitate to say, however, that man who
will thus 60 into convention and attemptin any
way to control its action, with whose political
principles he has no sympathy, and whose lead
ing men and measures he never ceases to malign,
has no political honesty or integrity, if, indeed,
he has any sense of the decent properties of Or
binary lfe We shall not call names here, as
it may be barely possible that some who took
part in this bare-faced fraud, were ignorant
either Of the disgraceful part they were playing
Or of the proprieties of such an occasion, but
we warn those engaged in it, that they will not
again escape so easily, they should ever attempt
to repeat there or elsewhere the performance at
Rutland.
1t is due to the candidate for Congress, in
whose interest these " copperheads - were taken
to Union Convention, to say that we have no
idea he suspected for an instant the instru-
mentalties which were being employed to ad-
vance his prospects in the Convention. If he

The Draft.

The draft is matter Of no small interest
in our State at the present time. Thus far,
Vermont has occupied an honorable and pa
triotc record, in the history Of this great ma
tional struggle. Coming generations will have
no occasion to blush over our cowardice and
remissness, in the discharge of our whole du-
ty, in this hour Of our national peril. It is
to be hoped, that we may maintain our proud
position, until this gigantic rebellion has been
sfectually crushed. While other States may
DO in trouble in enforcing tho law and raising
by draft their portion Of the required nation
al troops, that We may do it here, with q ready
cheerfulness that shall demonstrate our patri-
otism, and show that we are the worthy de-.
scendants Of the original Green Mountain
Boys" There never has been period since
the breaking out of this cruel war, that our
prospects for success were more encouraging
to every patriotic heart than now. Within q
few weeks we have achieved great national
triumphs, and the enemy have met with sad
and disheartening reverses. All we need now
to complete the work, is . united North, in a
hearty cooperation to sustain the Government
This resistance to law at the North, is the
worst kind Of sympathy with the rebellion Of
the South, and should not for moment be
tolerated or suffered. If the law is not lust

The Report of the American Bible Society.
The labors of the Americtn Bible Society
have been attended with great success during
the past year. The field to be supplied has
been one of unusually great extent, but the
donations having been proportionally liberal,
the work has, in most instances been thorough.
ly accomplished. Six new auxiliares have
been recognized.
The total receipts of the year are $422, 588 !;
arising from the following sources Books
sold, $238,611.2l Donations, $183, 976,79.
This shows the receipts of the year to be
greater than those of the year preceding, by
$44 1882,
Notwithstanding the amount OF work that
has been done by the Society, large balance
remains in the treasury, the whole of which,
however, will be required to carry out the an
ticipated work Of the coming year.
There have been printed at the Bible House,
during the year, 10000 Bibles, 1927 500
Tessaments, and 40 511 portions of the Scrip
lures, consisting of not less than single book,
as the Psalms, Proverbs, or Gospel by John.
The whole number of books printed during
the year is 1,l9S,011. To these should be
added 1900 Bibles imported. The number of
volumes printed the past year exceeds that of
the year before, by % 800 Bibles and l 81 ,22I
Testaments, and is diminished in portions of
the Scriptures of s2,OS9, making an increase
in the aggregate of l2S,O92 volumes during
the year. II will be seen from the above that
the increase has been in the larger books
Bibles and Testaments, and the decrease in
the smaller, that is, in portions of the Bibles.
The whole number Of volumes issued from
the depository during the year ending on the
3Ist day of March, was one million two hun
dred and fifty -nine thousand one hundred and
seventeen 259,l17.) Of these, 1854
were Bibles, I,OO2,SS2 Testaments, and

what we desire, or could wish in its practical
workings, still let it be maintained with vigor
until its detects can be legally removed. We
must take the Government as it now is, and
sustain it, and work it to the best possible ad-
vantage
We notice by the returns, as might be ex-
pected, that portion of our clergymen are
being drafted The change which is here in-
dicated, may not in all respects be desirable
to the minister of the gospel. They must ex-
change the comforts of home for the depriva-
tons and exposures of camp-the peaceful
calling of the ministry, for the carpal weap-
ons Of the soldier, and the tolls and perils of
the deadly strife of war. Still let no minister
treat this matter lightly, or without a full con-
viction that duty demands it. seek to be free
from this call of his bleeding country. The
clergy of New England have long advocated,
and prayed for the triumph Of those princi-
pics, UudU dIC uOW luNOlFGu III lulS udtlOudl
struggle. They have stood by them in the
pulpit aud the press, and now let them show
to the world, that they are neither ashamed or
afraid to stand by them on the field of carnage
and death that if need be, they can bleed and
die for the right, and the triumph oftruth ov-
er the blood-stained advocates of oppression
and treason.
We greatly need the influence on the mas
ses, that these drafted clergymen have tho OPP
portunity of exerting They may aid in CIV
majesty to the law, and character to the
service, which could not otherwise be secured.
If men called from our professions 60
to this work Of sacrifice and peril, without
resistance or complaint as in the ready dis
charge of a conscious duty, the masses will be
less inclined to resist, and will 60 with greater
cheerfulness in obedience to the stern demands
of legal authority. 1t is expected, that min
listers, especially. will be law abiding and
maintain their principle at whatever sacrifice.

separate volumes of the Psalms, Proverbs and
the Gospel by ST. John. To these must be
added 224 volumes for the Blind, in raised
letters.
The value of all these publications was
S273, 945. 3D. The sales amounted to 1922.
422 .0l. The increase of issues over the pre-.
ceding year was 1925 volumes.
The aggregate issues of the two years which
embrace the period Of the present civil war,
have been 2,352959 Volumes valued at
$497 ,TOl,30. Sixteen power-presses, with
force of over three hundred men, have been
kept constantly at work to produce these re-
suits.
The whole number of agents now employed
by the Society is twenty-seyeD, of whom TWEEN.
ty-four are in this country. In the Eastern
Middle, Northwestern, and Western States,
the work has been but slightly interrupted by
the war, excepting in Minnesota, where the
late outbreak of tie Indians seriously deranged
the operations for season.
There are no agents in the Seeded States
at present, but the work will be resumed at
the earliest practicable period in Western Vir-
ginia, Western Kentucky, Tennessee, and Mis-
souri,. A large proportion of the Bibles and
tracts distributed, have gone to the Army and
Navy. Everywhere that the agents have gone
among the brave defenders of our country,
they have been received with q hearty welcome,
and their gifts have been thankfully accepted.
Bibles in the hands of soldiers are liable along
with other property, to be lost by the casual.
ties of war, but it is recorded to the honor Of
our soldiers, that their Bibles have generally
been carefully preserved, and that the instan-
ces of wilful misuse and loss have been very
rare. Much has been done by the Society in
supplying the contrabands, rebel prisoners and
refugees from the South.
The reports from the district agents, which
are embodied in the general report, exhibit
satisfactory condition in all departments of
the work.
