The Battle of the 7th North Of the

Loss Of the Enemy.
INV YoRK. Oct ll.-In ell the rebel
accounts of the affair on Friday, they
make out that the severest fig hting was
done in the attact on Kautx, while our
accounts represent the heaviest part of
the engagement to have taken place after
the rout of kaux, The fact may be that
the rebels were m.de to pay very dearly
for their victory over kausz. as they
were armed with repeating rifles, and it
was in this attack that the rebels lost

The entire day. Contests we're had be-
fore the Judges upon the legality of votes
but the strife was conducted in such a
manner as to avoid those outbur,ts OF

Judges gave satisfaction, by ther depors-

A FEW QUESTIONS.

II is vain that General Mcclellan. i,
stepping upon the Chicago Platform an,
placing himself by the side Of Mr.. Pen

If he is for the Union at all hazard
why is he the candidate Of all who re-
pudiate the Union? 4
If he is for the Union at all hazards
why is he the fellow candidate Of Mr.
Pendoton. who lately thanked God tha

If he is for the Union at all hazards,
why is he the candidate Of conven ton
which declares the war failure, calls for
An immediate cessation of hostilties, and
asks for Convention to surrender the
authority Of the Government?

its assumption that the war is failure
and without syllable of dissent from it.

Ohio Election.

The latest, is, that the Democracy h ave
been beaten in at least fourteen districts
on the home vote, and with the soldiers
vote sixteen certainly, and probably in sew
enteen. The Union vote was not full in
some Of the stron. .est counties, and hence
some falling off in majorities. Ohio may
be counted upon with safety for 10000
Union majority in November.

The Decline of The Rebellion.

The rebel President has been to Georgia
to soothe the dissatisfaction which was
caused by the failure to atop SHERMAk's
advance into that State, and to quiet the
complaints against the Richmond Govern
msnt for this abandonment of Georgia
Mr.. DAvIs's speech was such confession
of the weakness and desperate condition
of the rebellion that the Charleston Mer.
curry deprecated it and reprovingly hoped
that it would be disowned.
He told the Georgiaus plainly that the
reason he didnot reinforce Hood was that
he had not the men. He conld not spare
them from Virginia. for had he--as the
grumblers al FIRST said he might have done
Withdrawn EARLY from the Valley, SnsR-
rDAE would advance upon Lynchburg'
and would, he said, put a compleet cor
don OF men around Richmond"
He said also to the women, to show
that the authorities had not been remiss
in drawing upon all tke resources: You
have not many between eighteen and
forty-fve left"
What q picture 10 this ofa cause which
pretends to be that Of self government
and resistance to coercion! A terrible con-
scription seized every boy as soon as he
reaches the age of eighteen. and drives
him TO the army. A merciess discipline.
backed by the penalty OF instant death, a.
lone keeps the army together. Provost Mar
shells scour the country for fugitives, and
the bloodhounds, once kept for hunting
negroes. now have full employment in
tracking white men tc their places Of con-
cealmen, to drag them to the work of
slaughter.
And in spite Of this reign of terror, in
the face Of the death penalty which hangs
over every fugitive, and OF the rules
which holds every man OF the military
age who is ont of the army . deserter to
be shot, nearly two thirds of the men
who have been forced into the army have
escaped from it. as Mr.. JKyEzasoH DAVIS.
old the Gsorgiaus in his speech at Macon.
: Is this such condition of liberty and
self-government that the Democratic party
10 the North should desire TO establish j.
upon the ruins Of this nation? Is the
dragging of every man between the ages
of l8 and Is to the rebel army for life
and the driving Of one half of the men to
fight to the forest,, swrmrs. mountains.

SHEEP BENErIcIAb TO FARM.--The
profits of keeping sheep are not at all
derived from the wool they produce,
and their increase of numbers for their
manure is one of the best fertilizers
that we have. Although sheep will
not thrive if kept too long on the same
farm, yet the soil upon which they are
kept will rapidly increase in its fertil-
ity. A moderate coating of sheep
manure will renovate worn soil more
than heavy coating of barn-yard ma
nure, and no manure is better adapted
to the growing of wheat than this.
Sheep may be made great profit to a
farm as fertilizers, if little attention
be paid to this subject, and little
pains taken to save their droppings
or having it dropped where the soil
needs it. This may be done during
the winter by feeding the sheep when
the weather will admit, in the poor
est field there is on the farm; and the
sheep shed should be well Uttered
with straw, saw-dust, or something o.
the kind, so that none of their excre.
ment can be lost.-Riral american

JUNE THE TINE TO PRUNE FRUrr
TREEs.-E. ID. Wright, in the Genesee
Farmer, contends that June is the
proper season to prune fruit trees, Of
fering as the ground of his faith the
following reasons, which we put in a
condensed form;
/. A limb being cut off before the
growing season, both wood and bark
viii dry and die back where the cut is
made. What itthus loses while waiting
for the growing season must be made
upbythe growth ofnew wood when that
season arrives. Nature undertakes to
heal the wound by growing it over
with this new wood, but much time il
will grow up from the point where life
still remains, between the bark and
the waod, to the place where it would
be if the cut were made in May or June,
instead of February or March.
2. Where limb is cut off before
the growing season. and before or at
the time of the spring flow of sap, the
sap must come TO the surface where
cut, and there be evaporated or fer
mented, leaving the wood sour and
hfeless, and liable soon to rot.
