Indiana Wheeling into Line !

Township and municipal elections occur
red in Indiana on Monday, and the returns
received are of the most cheering nature
for the Union cause. Last fall the State
was carried by the copperheads, and their
late legislature was disgrace to civiliza-
ton. The Democratic soldiers from that
State some time since uttered their protest
and emphatic condemnation of copperhead
treason at home. The people have already
become sick of it, and the result of their
elections on Monday show it very decidedly.
Indiana wheels into the union line once
more. We give below two dispatches from
indianapolis received Tuesday morning:
indianapolis, April 6.
Returns from the municipal elections in
this city to-day indicate that the union ma
jority will reach from 500 TO 1000.
Returns from various towns and cities
show great union gains.
indianapolis, April 6.
The township elections in this State to-
day, as far as heard from, resulted in large
gains for the unconditional union ticket.

Washington, Sept. 26.
The army of the Potomac is in motion

and 1t is expected that a considerable.
body of forces will embark with as littl,
delay as possible. Their destination car

The Government has taken possession
of the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, and
no more travel for civil purposes vii
be allowed on it. Some important move.
ment is contemplated on the line of this
great thoroughfare.
1t is very currently stated here, and
such in fact is the purport Of the insor.

sources, that the reinforcements sent of
to tae help Of Bragg against Rosecrans
have left Richmond almost defenseIess
There is but a handful of troops remaining,

The Government was aware of the
design of the rebels in reinforcing Bragg
mainly 10 overthrow our army By supe-
rlor numbers, and sent message by tel.
egraph to Gen. Burnside, ordering him
to reinforce Rosecrans, with the men un.
der his command. Burnside replied that
he was on his way to Jonesboro and
would join Rosec.ans as soon as he had
occupied that place. The Government
then repeated the order in peremptor y
manner, ordering him to reinforce Rose
Grams Immediately. Two days afterw ards
telegram was received here from Burn
side to the effect that he had occupied
Jonesboro and should now proceed to the
assistance Of Rosecrans. At the last ad
vices the main body Of the troops under
Burnside were at Athens. His adyanc @
was at Cleveland. The Government is
not satisfied with this proceeding of Burn
side, and it is yet to be seen what neces.
sity there was for his neglect to obey the
orders given him in such express terms.
The President will have an interview at
three o'clock this evening, with the dele
gates from Kansas and missouri sent to
Washington to protest against General
Sehofelds policy.

Washington. Sept. 9


1t appears now that all three of Rose
Grams grand divisions were engaged in
the battle in front of Chattanooga, two OF
which were driven back in considerable
disorder.
Gen. Rosecrans, in his dispatches, i'm
putes the loss of the battle to disobedi.
ence or orders on the part of Gen. McCook
who failed to occupy an important posi-
ton assigned him by Rosecrans. Had he
done as ordered, Rosecrans' opinion is
that the battle would have resulted in q
splendid Union victory. By extending
his forces too much the enemy were en-
abled to penetrate Rosecrans' lines.
Great anxiety is felt here in army cir
Giles for the safety of Burnside. In order
to reinforce Rosecrans his safest course
would be to cross the Tennessee river
and move down between the river and
the mountains so as to penetrate to some
of the gaps, and move down behind the
mountains. The opinion of military men
seems to be that if he attempts to move
down this side of the river he will rur
great ravk Of being cut off.
Gen. Hooker has been assigned to ar
important command in field where hi:
brilliant fighting qualities will find theil
full scope.
An attempt on the part of the rebel
to establish batteries at Matthias Poin
has been frustrated by our gunboats.

At half past six o'clock last evening q
special train, consisting Of one locomotive
and 20 passenger coaches, started from
Kalamazoo, Mich, loaded with people
from the Michigan State Fair bound west.
At Mattawan, IL miles this side of Kals-
mazoo, there is down grade, extending
all the way to Lawton, four miles further
west. While coming down this grade,
some drunken rowdies near the rear end
of the train cut the bell rope and pulled
out the link between the cars. Being
upon down grade. the engineer did not
discover the loss Of portion Of his train
and dashed on to Lawton, where he stop
ped his train. In less than two minutes
the rear portion of the train was seen
laundering down the grade close upon
the forward train. The engineer imme-
diately put on steam to get out of the way,
and with such force that the couplings
between the engine and the cars broke,
and dreadful collision ensued. Five
persons were killed outright, aud twenty
two, more or less, wounded, some Of them
so severely that they will not recover.

1t is probable that the glorious news
mentioned in Saturdays Washington dis
patches. as said 10 be received by the Gov.
eminent from the army of the Cum ber-
land is founded wholly on the author OF
those great strategic movements that have
characterized the whole Of Rosecrans
Tennessee campaign. With the reinforce
ments that have reached him Rosecrans
has been enabled to outmaneuyre Bragg,
exposing the flank OF the latter and COM
polling him to retire.
The tenor of the dispatches from that
direction arc quite cheering and >indica-
tive of important movements, the details
Of which are not permitted to be made
public at this juncture. The battle Of
the Chisamauga proves to have been 10
reality a Union victory If in order TO
crush Rosecrans it was necessary to tenn
porarily draw SO largely upon Lee, Beau
regard and others, and tie result was only
drawn battle, the Importance of tenn
porary strengthening Of Bragg becomes a
permanent necessity. If the flower of
the whole Southern armed force can do
no more than compel Rosecrans for the
time being to assume the defensive. what
must be the result when Rosecrans, heavi-
ly reinforced by Grant and Burnside, re-
sumes the offensive and The Federal for
ces elsewhere attack those points now
weakened to sustain Bragg's campaign
As the movement of troops into East
Tennessee, now being made, indicates
tina: most gigantic effort is being made
to penetrate the part of the Southern
Confederacy, and it is possible that old
Rosey will yet be the man who takes
Richmond.
It is asserted that Hooker is assigned

By the arrival of the steamship Cataw-

gagged in the Saline Pass expedition had
been disembarked, and are to compose
part of the expedition overland to Texas.
The troops took their departure on . the

originally was to go by that route will
thus be so much strengthened as to rem
