pGWc may have something to say, at some future time, of the way the "substitute" busi- ness was managed at Bridgeport, by which the town was charged with the full $3Oo for pro- curing substitutes for sixteen of the twenty three drafted men. The exposure may account in measure for the large" Irish' element that elected the present Board of Selectmen in Litchfeld on Monday last.

Governor Foreman of Western Virginia, has issued proclamation announcing that he has information that the rebel Generals Imbo- den, Jackson, and maybe others, contemplate movement of their forces through the moun- tans into that State, for the purpose of devas- tating and laying waste the country, and rob. blng' plundering and numbering the people. lie, therefore, calls upon all officers of the militia and all person subject to military duty within the State, to have their arms in order, and be ready to assemble at their usual pla-l ces of rendezvous at a moments notice, and to move at any point when their services may be required. The Wheeling hnteuigencer says. the proclamation has occasoncd considerable excitement among the people, who are already vigorously preparing to meet, with arms in their hands, any enemy who may appear.
 The Richmond Sentinel of the 2Oth uh. states, the House of Delegates, yesterday.
 in the most summary manner, disposed of a resolution for inquiriug into the tone and tenn. per of the people of the United States. on the subject of peace, with view to respoud- ing, if favorable. The House know, what every body knows, that such resolutions are both idle and mischievous; for they will only be taken by our enemies az evincing more or less readiness for reconstruction. The House, by a''animoas rote. put it's foot on the reso- lution. and without word of discussion or . moment of delay. In this they but fairly rep resented tke manlness and the unanimity Of our people,"
 It turns out that the Baltimore Gdzette was shut up for publishing two editions one lor for tbe circulation in the South, with the most tratorous editorials, which were reproduced ia the Richmond papers.

IN ToRR1NaroN, on Monday, the copperheads tried to play fine little game, but didn't quite make it work. They pretended to have no ticket in the field, and up to l2 o'clock. but three democratic" votes were deposited in the ballot-boxes. Shortly after that hour the Wolt cottvllIe grogeries disgorged themselves, and over eighty copperhead votes were cast as rap- idly as they could be stuffed into the boxes. The Union men, who were thus some twenty votes behind, flew around quite lively for an hour or two, and before the polls closed, at 2 F. M., they were some twenty or thirty votes ahead again. Had the coppers postponed their little game an hour longer, they might have caught the Union men mapping, and We should have had the blazing announcement in the Hartford Times of Torrngton Redeemed l'' The following are the officers elected:- Selectmen-Bradley R Agard, Alonzo Whi- ting, Harvey L.

many little folks are almost useless,

even when they are sick!
And James can run OF errands-
go TO the store for tea, coffee or su-
gar. and save his mother valuable
minutes. and the fatigue Of going for
these things herself, while Edward
can spit the kindling for Ellen TO

Major General Burnside arrived in town this
morning. He was not in town yesterday. This
morning he testified before the Committee on
the Conduct of the War, and made a strong
impression upon the minds OF the committee
that, had he met with hearty and prompt CO.
operation from others, superior and subordi-
nate, he would to-day have been hailed as the
hero Of Richmond. No man ever had so much
to contend with, in SO short time, as did Gen.
Burnside while he commanded tho Army of the
Potomac.
After leaving the committee room, the Gem
eral, under conduct Of the Committee, visited
both Houses Of Congress, and was warmly
greeted by the members. From the floor of the
Senate he observed bevy of beauties" in the
gallery, who were gracefully paying their rc-
spects to him. He responded by visiting them
before leaving the Capitol, and received quite
an ovation. General Burnside leaves the city
this evening for New York.

A Bureau OF statistic. needed.

If Congressman have any doubt about the
expediency Of establishing by law "Bureau
Of Statistics" as recommended by Secretary
Usher In his letter TO the two Houses, let them
not only examine well the motives Of those
who oppose the measure, but go to the Interior
Department and examine the specimens Of the
great mineral resources Of this vast country,
and they will hesitate no longer. Mr.. Usher,
in his able letter on the subject, says:
"The Importance OF the proposed bureau
cannot, In my opinion, be oyer-estimated. In
the present peril of tho country, the minds of
many Of the most patriotic citizens are do
pressed with gloomy apprehenslons of lmpend-
ing national bankruptcy and ruin. Let the
people be truly Informed of the vast resources
Of that portion of the nation now Graphing
with the rebelllon-the value of Its commerce,
Its enormous agricultural product, the as vet
comparatively untouched wealth Of individuals,
and, more than all, that we have one million OF
acres ofsilyer and gold, some portions Of which,
now being wrought, yields ten thousand dollars
from one ton OF Its ore; that In these precious
metals and other valuable minerals, the nation
has more wealth than all the earth besIde-then
dependency will be dlssipated, and replaced
by confidence and hope; and with an unaltera-
bic determination to preserve the nation for the
enjoyment Of these treasures and blessings. re-
newed energy will be given to our councils and

A MERCHANT FOR SEEAToR.-HOn. Z. D.
Morgan, who, during the past four years, has
been Governor of the State Of New York, has
been elected Senator Of the United States for
the term Of six years, from the fourth day OF
March next and we chronicle this, the result
Of a long and anxious canvass Of claims and
qualifications, with unfeigned pleasure and
Thanksgiving. The selection made Is an honor
to the State, to this city, and TO the nation.
Mr.. Morgan is thorough merchant; practi-
cal business mani and, possessing great wealth,
and rare, If not unsurpassed financial ability,
he will, we confidently predict, be one Of the
most useful and influential men In Washington.
just now We have in Congress a surplus of
orators, politicians, and Of almost all kinds of
talent but business talont, and we rejoice that
the State of New York has made choice of a
man, for Senator, who can represent the bust
ness interests Of this great financial metropO-
lis-from whence hundreds, If not thousands,
of millions Of dollars will be wanted during
his Senatorial career TO sustain the Govern.
