One would suppose, from the language and
tone Of the Republican press, that the Con.
scription about to be put into execution 3 was
to fall only upon Democrats! NtN@ s3
Possibly that is the intention 1t is evi,
dent that there have been gross discrepancies
in the enrolment that look like fraud; and
in some OF the districts the proportion of
Democrats drawn is out of measure, il fair

We expect the Democrats will come in for
the largest share Of the favorsof this. lottery.
They have done most OF the fighting, and
ale expected to do more. There are more
OF them than Of Republicans. That fast SUBJ
siding faction'will hardly be able to bring to
the polls q respectable Show of Strength
the young men too are every where with
Democracy. The election Of November will
demonstrate this By o show of figures that
will dumbound the brawlers and scolds in

The imputation that the Draft is unwel-

cans do not oppose it, is preposterous. 1t is
as hard upon young man OF that party TO

WASHINGTON, Oct. 5.-Full official ad
vices Of late date, have been received al
the NavyDepartment, from Admiral Dahl
green. They are full and very satisfactory
and although from their nature their publ
cation at this time would be highly indis
Greet, they show that neither Dahlgreen mol
Gilmore are idle. They are pushing for
ward preparations for a renewal of active
and efficient operations.
These two distinguished commanders
have too much the interest of the cause al
heart, and are too busily engaged in for
warding preparations for reducing fortified,
tions and capturing the city to waste their
time in the foolish chickering's and jealousies
ascribed to them by certain newspaper cor
respondents and others. On the contrary,
they are working cordially and heartily to
sether, and the results Of their cooperation
will be witnessed before long in manner
which will convince Beauregard and his
friends and sympathizers that all barbarism
is not exhausted in the first shelling of the
devoted city.

Another Expedition from Fort.

New YORK, Oct Ga Fortress Monroe
letter dated the 4th, to tho Herald states
that an expedition on large scale, consist
ing Of artillery, cavalry and infantry, has
been organized, and in conjunction with Sc
veral gunboats started from there yesterday
evening.
The weather is all that could be desired
hence the expeditionary corps will not suf-
fer any delay from unfavorable wind and
tide.
Their destination is unknown even to
those participating. The troops left under
sealed orders, which are not to be opened
until a certain point is reached.
A place of rendezvous has been appointed
where the various commanders are to meet
and adopt such measures as will ensure sue
cess for the expedition.
Mai. Gen. Foster planned the campaign
and entrusted his plans to only few com
petent and trust worthy officers in whom
he reposes every confidence.
The object of the expedition is to strike
severe blow on a vital point, and if pro
perly carried out will have telling etfect

Fall campaign on both sides at all event'
the rebels will be compelled to concentrate

troops are quite numerous enough to fgh
heavy engagement and the result can b'
no other than a Union victory.

New YORK, Oct. 6.-The Post says; b
the arrival of the steamer Fulton at thi
port from Charleston we have report, az
parently on good authority, that the head
quarters of Gen. Gilmore had been removes
| from Morris Island to Folly Island. Th
continued sinking of the beach on Morri
Island has rendered the removal of thu
Federal headquarters, the body of thu
troops. and the material, measure of con
veniencs, while there are sanitary reason'
which would ultimately be controlling -
There are said to be other causes for the
change. Among them is that the troop:
will not be less available in the future OPP
erations against Charleston, and they are
entirely out of range of any batteries the
rebels have or can erect on James Island.
The recent firing from Gen. Gilmore S
batteries, of which We have received news
from rebel sources, was directed almost
exclusively against the efforts that were
making, and which the rebels do not dis
close, to erect new batteries in the ruins Of
Fort Sumter.
1t appears that our accommodating boats
which passed near its walls during the night
discovered that the garrison were conduct
ing extensive operations, and the indications
were that the rebels, who were working in
large numbers, would erect fire proof bat
teries inside of the ruins, with the intention
of using them when the works should be
sufficiently advanced to justify the removal
of the broken walls ard debris, which pro-
tectcd the workmen and concealed their
operations from view.
The rapid and heavy firing of Our guns,
it is expected will not only stop this work,
but render the rebel occupation OF Sumter
precarious if not impossible.
Gen. Gilmore's operations on Morris Is
land are actively prosecuted. The batteries
on Cummings Point now shields our troops
perfectly, while the condition of Wagner
is such as to protect the troops from all
hazard; still there ere few casualties, all
of which occur N consequence OF unneces-
sary exposure.
The batteries which are designed to throw
Greek Fire are now nearly completed, and
recent experiments have shown that the fire
may besafely and effectively used Charles
ton is within fair range OF tne guns al
ready placed, and which are in such num-
bers as will insure the destruction of the
city when they are turned upon it This
event will not take place until other plans
ar complete, and the navy is ready to CO.
operate with the army.
The complaint against Admiral Dalgren
is universal
Our naval officers aud sailors believe that
Admiral Farragut will soon take command
of tho feet IN Charleston harbor, and they
express the utmost confidence that the re
suit of the operations then undertaken will
be successful.

HERALD's SPECIAL

NASHVILLE, Oct 5.-An unusual degre'
of excitement prevails here to-day, in con
sequence of the rebel General Forest, witt
a force of about 1000 mounted, having
made raid on ourline of railroad commu
nication between this place and Bridgeport
or Chattanooga.
just at this particular time no trains are
leaving for the objection of the raid, YET
this circumstance need give no particular
cause for alarm. The enemy can DO ou'
comparatively little to injure our commune
cation. Forest NAV succeed in interrupt
ing our communication for few hours, ou'
we have not only force to drive him oack
but to defeat an immensely heavier force,
There is no need to fear Gen. Rosecrans
success in holding his position at Chatta-
nooga. He IS too strong at that place Tor
the enemy to attack him with even snow
of success.
To-day skirmishing has been going on IN
the neighborhood of Murfreesboro. Ibe
enemy made an attempt to destroy bridge
of considerable importance to US in rail
road point of view. In the skirmish very
few were wounded and none killed.
OOme persons are iHClluCU W th'hN go -
gagement is going on at Chattanooga, but
don't coincide with them. Unless the enc
my is very desperate, he will not attack
Chattanooga. If he does there is every
likelihood that he will be defeated. 1t he
attempts flank movement on that place,
he will find force that has been long and
we'll tried in the field, and Gen. Rosecrans
would be able to hold out several days
against movements and attacks even OF a
very superior force. :,
The present raid is not an unexpected
one. We were looking for it. Cavalry
movements do not surprise US, as it is only
when heavy bodies Of infantry move on our
lines; comm unication or TANKS, that we
prepare for serious engagements.
Let me assure all loyal people that they
need have no fears for Rosecraps' rear and
for the safety of Murfreesboro.
The rebels moved on our rear flank In full
force, and General we'll qualified to know
