Butler Captures the FOrtifications
i'm Front effort DarIing-Rebels
Receiving ReinfOrccments.

New YORK, Oct. 2.-The Herald's corres-
pondent at Buffers headquarters, dating
Sept. 30th, writes: Early yesterday morn
ing Gen. Butler had captured all the forth
fications save one Immediately opposite
Fort Darling, and we still hold them, not
withstanding a vigorous shelling by the
rebel rams. The fact that one of our hos
pitals was located within three miles of the
city throughout yesterday, is significant.
Gen. Grant last evening expressed him
self to an old army officer as heing entire
ly satisfied with the operations of the army,
and added that more had been accomplish
ed (at the then period of the undertaking.
than he expected would be. Gen Grant had
an interview with Gen. Butler at o'clock
this morning.
1t is reported the rebels are rushing re-
Inducements to their left by train loads of
fifteen and seventeen cars each.
We have captured twenty guns in all.
Refugees from Richmond report great
dependency there; and JEFF Davis was
seen on the street on the 30th exceedingly
abject and worn down in his appearance.
Citizens were leaving the city by hundreds.
They say Lee was caught mapping this
time, as our movements were not dreamed
of.

SUNDAY NIGHTS DISPATCHES.
The AdYance of the Tenth Corps.

New YORK, Oct. 2.-The Herald's Tenth
Corps correspondent says of the operations
of that Corps in the advance on Richmond:
The Corps broke camp at three o'clock p.
M. on the 2Sth, and by rapid marching
reached and crossed the James at daylight
on the 10Th. AtDeep Bottom, Immediately
on advancing, they met the enemy and
skirmished up roads and across fields till
near New Market road. This was occupied
by the enemy strongly intrenched on hill.
The advance was obstinately contested
The position, in addition to its strong nat
ural character, was rendered doubly for
midable by an almost impenetrable slash
ing that covered the slopes. The colored
troops, under Gen. Paine, were ordered to
carry this position, and their charge was
one of the grand features of the operations
of the day. They never halted or faltered,
though their ranks were sadly thinned as
they advanced to the successful accom-
plishment of their task, put the enemy to
confusion and sent them rapidly down the
road toward Richmond. Generals Grant
and Butler came on the field during this
struggle, and were enthusiastically receiv-
ed by the troops. When the former rode
along the lines the shouts and cheers of the
men were beyond example. i urA
Three miles above New Market the enemy
have very strong work, Dut Blrney press
ed his advantage and pursued the retreating
rebels so closely that they could not stop to
reform In this work. Two miles further
on, the rebels have strong line of re-
doubts, perfect in their character, carrying
heavy artillery and located at such brief
intervals that 1t is impossible to force a
column OF troops through them. These
works cross the New Market road just be-
yond the Laurel Hill Church, and their
guns sweep the roads In all directions. ls
Gen. Birney at once determined to carry
such of these works as lay in his 'front.' by
general assault, accommodating the ground
himself amid storm of shells have never
seen surpassed. They were met with a
murderous fire of grape and canister, and
unceasing volleys of musketry, that worked
terrible havoc in their ranks. Still unflinch-
ingly they held theirway. In crossing an in,
tervening crest of open land they were ex-
posed to a frightful entilatling fire Of artil-
iery, and the casualties were terrible. Still
the line pressed forward. On approaching
the redoubtsthey were found even more for
midable than at first supposed. A perfect
abbattis held them at bay, while the rebel

CHANGE OF MILITARY COMMANDERS
Major-General Heintzelman, who has COM
manded this Military Department for sew
eral months with entire success, and to the
satisfaction of the people, has been re-
lieved and Major General Joseph Hooker
has been appointed and assur' ed command.
During Gen. Heintzelman's service affairs
in this department have ben excellently
administered, and he will leave the State
with the respect and gratitude of the peo-
pie. There have been, we have no doubt,
times when, had he listened to the dema-
gogical politicians and sensational agi-
tators, civil strife and discord would
scarcely have been avoided but he eschew-
ed politics, like the true soldier that he is,
and succeeded perfectly in his administra-
tion Of military affairs. Gen. Hooker, who
succeeds the able and respected Heintzel-
man, is distinguished as fighting General
especially great in the front edge of battle !;
but there is every reason to hope that his
less perilous and calmer career among the
people of Ohio will be characterized by the
same discretion and success that attended
his predecessor.

THE DRAFT.--The churn Of the conscrip-
tion officers has stoppedits fatal revolutions,
and the draft was on Saturday last discon-
tinued. Itappeared that the quotas Of the
various precincts in this district were fill
ing up faster by the volunteering of substi-
tutes than by the mastering of those con-
scripted, and further proceedings were
therefore discontinued. Washington Town
ship in this county was the only one behind
on Saturday, and that has now filled its
quota. This puts an end to the conscription
business until after the ides of November,
when ii Lincoln is reelected we shall have
the wheel in perpetual motion. If, as we
ardently hope, he is not elected, the churn
of the conscription officer will be broken
up for kindling wood and the powers that
be will try some other more potent, and
nobler instrument, as yet untried, with
which to settle our intestine feuds.

1t is reported that Gen. Kautz's cavalry

connoissance to within mile and half of
Richmond, and were surprised to find so
Buffers forces are within four miles of the
city. Great activity prevailed on the left
of our lines. and Gregg's cavalry had ad-
vanced to Ream's Station. The rebel lines
were very thin. The cannonading of We'd

degree of tender affection on our part
which the circumstances scarcely warrant.

THE CITY.

A SPECIMEN ABOLITION MEET1NG.-The
Abolitionists announced meeting in Grove
City, jackson township, the strongest Dem
ocratic locality in this county, for. Friday
night last. There were almost two hun
dred voters present, and out of this number
there were but eighteen Republicans, the
rest being Democrats. Sam Shellabarger
addressed the meeting first, and knowing
the political opinions of the great majority
of the men before him, his speech was less
vulgar and abusive than the one he deliv-
ers in Abolition townships, although it was
equally stupid and uninteresting. He was
listened to throughout with that courtesy
and respect which always characterize the
intelligent and impartial Democracy of
this country, and especially of Jackson
township; and if his speech made no con-
verts, it at least created no disgust.
But after Shellabarger concluded, Mr..
Solomon Hinkle, Federal Office holder,
who earns heavy salary by, and whose
only and most arduous duty consists in,
presiding over the conscription churn in
this district, next addressed the meeting in
strain of vulgar and billingsgate abuse,
which approximated to the intolera-
BILE. He started out with the declara-
tion that any man who refused to support
the present Administration ought to be
transported beyond the lines of the Federal
army. This atrocious declaration elected
a tremendous groan, which was the only
demonstration Of approval or dissent
manifested during the evening. Mr..
Hinkle then proceeded to denounce and
abuse n. NJ ;Clellan in a strain of vitupe-
ration and blackguardism which thorough
ly disgusted eNe"y man in the school
house, and whi' h was highly effective in
confirming for Mcclellan several wavering
and uncertain votes. 1t is surprising
that a man of Mr.. Hinkle's intelligence,
who knows that the position he holds is, in
the nature of things, an odious one in the
eyes of the people of this country, should
30 far forget himself as to descend to that
vulgar expedient of abusing better men
than himself in the hope of making few
NoCes, WHICH, uc Hust HAVE Ueen AWARE IilaJ
the denunciations he hurled against Nc
Clellan, in the minds of such an audience as
he addressed, only fell back with double
force upon himself but such is the fact. He
did abuse Mcclellan in style which makes
us wish that he would continue his efforts
throughout this county, as they can neces-
sarily have no other effect than to increase
McClellan's majority of votes.
