New YoKK, Sept. 19.-In private
letter received to-day, our Consul al
Liverpool says one Of the Anglo-rebel
rams is ready for sea, and expresses
the decided opinion that the British
Government will take no steps to pre-
vent her from sailing.
There are those who consider Mr..
Dudley's views regarding the probable
course Of Great Britain as more enti-
tied to credence than the opposition
ones which Mr.. Adams has frequently
reiterated. and who apprebended open
war as the inevitable result OF the se-
cret hostililies to this country prac-
ticed by England.
An inmate of Libby Prison writes,
on the 9th Of August, that twenty of
our officers and soldiers are ouartered
there, and they are as well and comfort
able as could be expected under the
Private letters from officers in Gen.
RosecraDs' army more than confirm
all that has been printed touching the
numerous desertions from which the
rebel armies In front of the Army Of
the Cumberland are suffering. Dur
ing the march to Chattanooga not far
from 5000 Of these fugitives from the
rebel service came within our lines.

@0ur juvenile friend, Jas. E.
Robinson. ventilated himself last week
through the columns Of the Dispatch,
IN most remarkable manner for one of
his size and years. Jimmy is small
man. SO very small indeed that it is
with difficulty we sre enabled 10 focus
him with our brilliant gray eye. But
what he lacks ip size be makes- MP in
noise. 1t seems that some cousins
brother's son told him that somebody's
fathers aunt's nephew had been In
formed Chat some ones uncle's grand
father had doubted bis loyaIty-aDd all
because be is Democrat. This was
enough to upset him, and it did. 1t
was enough to upset any little body.
and it is not surprising therefore that
it upset Jimmy. Itwas enough to up
set us, and we are twice bis size. And
this charge. coming direct as it did,
was enough to create a big noise from
very small cavity; sufficient indeed to
wake the children. bis little play-mates,
who might hear the noise, but not d.
vine the cause. We hope. our little
pupil. should he ever again have occs-
sion to ventilate. will perch himself
upon brick. end-wise, and place a
sheet OF paper on bis head. so that he
may be seen as well as heard. We are
indebted to him for perusal of his
brilliant 'splsy." (for be it remem-
bered we don't exchange with the Dis
patch.) and had Il not been for the
courtesy OF our dear little Jimmy, thai
brilliant effusion would have been lost
to US. He seems to be his own index,
and as paper is poor substance for
such constant handling as he subjects
it to, we would recommend him to
adopt the Georgia plan.a That is. to
write his communications on a shiuele,
and have one little darkey 10 hold up
the shiugle while another would ring a
bell 10 attract attention to it. He would
make a good bell-riuger.
Jimmy gives the Journal full credit
for embittering bis mind against the
Republican party, but is mum in refer
ence to our advice against the teachings
OF modern democracy, and therefore
does not quote US fully and fairly
For this he deserves a spanking. And
as he proposes to be our pupil. we wish
him distinctly to understand that
there is no Republican party at the
present time. The only parti es we
know are the Union, which is for main
tanning the Government; and the trait
orous party, which is endeavoring to
destroy the fair fabric. We are for the
Union, under all circumstance and
opposed to the disloyal party that Of
fers guarantees to traitors in arms.--
Jimmy. to which party do you be-
long?

H Vsllandigham, on his tour
through the dominions Of JEFF. Davis.
repeatedly exborted the rebels TO bold
on to Vicksburg, declaring that the
success Of his party in Ohio depended
altogether on the ability of the rebel
Government TO battle the Union armies
besieging that place. So says cor
respondent OF the Gin. Gazette.
Well. Vicksburg has been ''let CO."
II the failure to "bold on" secures the
defeat OF Val. in Ohio, then General
Grant achieved double victory. De-
festing the rebels in that stronghold,
and defeating the copperheads in Ohio
at The same time. is surely something
to boast of. Still, as Pugh. Hutchins
4 Co. are to be on hand shortly, prob
ably they can explain Wallis words to
be mere gaseonade for the purpose Of
making "fair weather" with the rebels,
and that he did not mean what he said /.
In any event, it proves Val great liar,
as the result Of the election will prove
his friends great fools.

@J.J. CooxBs. ESQ.,. formerly Of
Gallipolis. now of the City os Wash
inston, lalsl5 delivered = speech at the
Union League reading room, which is
well worthy of perusal By every loyal
man. NJ. CooxBs Is too wen known
10 Calls county TO require any com-
mendstion at our hands. II our space
permitted. we would gladly lay The
whole speech before our readers. As
il is we must content ourselves with .
few extracts. He defines the difference
between Union man. ands Copper.
head in the following graphic style:
"a true Union man Is one who ab-
hors and detests this accursed rebellion,
its authors, .aiders aud sbettors, and
is In favor OF suppressing it BY force oI
arms. To that end he would have the
Government put forth all its energies
and constitutional powers. in a vigorous
prosecution of the war, so long as there
is hostile squadron in the field. He
knows that the war for the suppression
can only be carried on through the
agency of the general Government. and
the public functionsries who administer
it. He knows that the present Admin
istration is honestly endesvoring to
pat tie rebellion down, and that to op.
pose it in these endeavors, is tc give
aid and comfort to traitors and rebels
in arms. Hence it is necessarily q
hearty supporter Of the present Ad-
ministration, though be may doubt the
wisdom or expediency, or even the con.
stitutionslity, Of some of its measures.
For even if he eonceives that the Ad-
ministrstion has sometimes transcribed
the limits Of the Constitution for the
purpose Of saving it. that is to him no
good reason for turning against the Ad-
ministratiou, and lending his sympsthies
to those who have taken up arms for
the avowed purpose of utterly destroy
ing the Constitution.
A "Copperhead" is one opposed to
putting down the rebellion By force oil
arms; and, consequently, opposed to
all the war measures Of the Admins
tration. He may talk loudly in favor
of ''the Union as it was, and the Con-
stitution as it is" yet SO long as he is
unwilling to oppose by force those who
are by open war striving to destroy
both the Constitution and the Union.
he practically gives the lie to all such
professions. He sees nothing to sp.
prove in any of the measures of the
Administration tending TO the suppress
sion of the rebellion, and very little
10 condemn in the rebellion itself. He
is man Of nice constitutional scruples,
as to all measures for the defence Of the
Constitution, but can look with COM
placency on an effort to utterly destroy
it by force and arms. He cries "pesce!
peacel'' when be knows there can be
no peace, except upon the condition Of
asserting to the final disruption Of the
Union"

EJefferson Y. Toombs, colored
man OF Cincinnati, is a son Of Robert
Toombs. late u. s. Senator, of Georgia,
and new resides in Cincinnati. His
mother was a slave, the property oil
the said U. s. Senator. His color is
unconstitutional in freeman, but de-
cidedly protected by the Constitution in
slave Vallandigham's Lieutenant.
George E. Pugh, has a little difficulty
with the aforesaid Jefferson Y. Toombs,
in regard to a trial by "wager Of
battle" George says men Of Toombs'
color won't fight, and that he wouldn't
give three cents for all the Government
can raise. &c. Toombs denies this,
and offers to prove it by a little "bout"
with Georgey himself. This is a very
fair offer. II the darkey fails to come
to time. we will believe Pugh's asser-
ton. But Il George declines the trial,
how then? Perhaps he viii explain it
fully on the 25th INST. when his clarion
voice will awake the "sleepy bollows''
Of old Gallia. 1t would add greatly to
the interest Of the occasion il our
colored folks would procure the attend
ance Of Jefferson Y. Toombs on that
day. Perhaps Mr.. Pugh might have
less to say on the "nigger," and more
on the war.

On evacuating Chattanooga, the
enemy retired to Lafayette, and msssed
force at tha: place, taking possession
of the gaps OF Pigeon Mountain. direct
ly 10 front Of Gen. Thomas column
The rebel force had been made formi-
dable by new additions from Johnston,
Buckner, Hindman and Maury. De-
serters report the enemy now superior
in numbers to the army they had at the
battle Of Murfreesboro' Among the
divisions are ChesIham's Dey's Gle,
burns, Stewards, Buckner's, Breckin-
ridges. Clayborne's, Hindmsn's,
Slaughter's, and detached brigades oI
Jsekson's and Auderson's, in all thirty
eight brigades ofinfsntry--not Of less than
5000.
Formidable numbers and position
compelled Rosecrsns to concentrate
his forces, necessarily much scattered
in crossing Lookout mountains. The
two lines Of opposing armies may now
be represented by crescent-shsped
Pigeon mountains. which extend as an
arc circle around Lafayette, the rebels
holding the interior and the exterior Of
the mountains. The two forces are
within few miles of each other, but
efectually separated BY the range Of
mountains. The rebel position can
only be approached by three gaps.
Cattlett's, Wing, and Blue Bird, which
are strongly guarded.
The rebel position covers excellent
lines for retreat on Rome and Calhoun,
where they will probably make q new
line. should they be defeated here
There are rumors that they have been
retiring for a day or two but this is
considered unreliable.
Gen. Rosecrsns left Chat ttanooga on
