A Rebel COnfessiOn.-C Conversation of a
Government Detective with a Rebel
Colonel.
Mr.. Thomas o. Harter, Of McPhaiTs
United States Detectives, communicates the
following to the Wabash (Ind.) Express:
'qUn the Goth of August, 1864, 1 had an
opportunity to get in conversation with a
colonel attached to a brigade commanded
by an officer well known in the Potomac as
Mud Wall jackson. At the time they
were encamped at Shephardstown, Vir-
ginis. fortunately came into possession
of a Baltimore american and received as
surance from the commanding officer of
their pickets that would be granted the
privilege of exchanging papers and my re-
turn to our own forces. readily accepted
and during this time had the following in ]
terview with the above colonel His first
questions to me was, Do You think that
the recent nominees for President and Vice
President, or in other werds do Won think
that Lincoln and johnson will be elected
President and Vice-President of the Uni
ted States this fall My reply to the above
was that 1t was my opinion that they
would. To that reply he remarked that if
such should be the case, that the cause in
which he was engaged would prove hope
less: that their only hopes were founded
in the delusion of a divided North and
change of Administration if such did not
occur, that in his opinion there would not
be q gun fred after the lapse of three
months after it was made known to the
Southern Confederaey that Lincoln and
johnson were elected. ----,.- i5e.r -if III
II remarked to him that the President
had called for five hundred thousand more
men, and that they would be forthcoming
soon, and as many more il necessary. He
replied you may raise that number of men,
but we could not add to our strength five
hundred; that they had eonseripted all or,
nearly so, between the ages of sixteen and
fifty, capable of bearing arms. Tohis last
expression 1 wish to call your attention. It
may appear small number to raise. but
Notwithstanding, I can truthfully say it is
correct. ge
81 have travelled nearly all over Vir-
ginia since the rebellion, in all of its i'm
portant cities and towns, and I know what
1say is true: and having seen others that
have had similar opportunities ts ascertain
facts in regard to their hopeless situation,
cdH say as one cOnHUenI OF saying what
is true, that they are at present stronger in
force than they can be again, and that all
that is required to ensure the success of our
arm and our cause, is to answer the Presi-
dents call for more men, and prevent the
election of theso-called peace men to any
position whatever, either in county, state, or
United States. Their facilities for getting
news from the Northern states are of such
nature that they would not be kept in the
dark long after the result is made known
and they expect no other assistance than |
from the reported division of the people in
the northern states. Let them know there
is none, and the cause is ours, and once
more will the stars andstripes, the emblem |
Of liberty, triumphantly wave over every
state in our country.",I bstam.sss s-sI

Substantially the Same,

The Chicago Platform and McClellan's
Platform are substantially identical in one
respect. The Chicago Platform recog-
nizes the C6nfederacy as an accomplished
fact. McClellan's Platform recognizes it
as legal attempt at revolution, not to
be met by the military power OF the
Government, but by negotiations. In
either case, the Inauguration of Demo
cratic policy will result in the independ-
euee of the South. A cessation of HOSTILE
ties, as the Chicago Convention proposed,
would result in interminable negotiations,
protracted from month to month, and pos
sibly from year to year, sure to result in
the end in separation. Even an attempt
at negotiation would, in the estimation Of
foreign powers, be recognition of the
rebels as an independent power in the land
The onl y way in which the Union can be
restored is to fight on Until the rebels lay
down their arms This is the only pre-
requisite of Peace which the Union party
demands. .brzl

) sher,sInnss victory.

For a number of weeks General Sheri-
dan, at the head of some twenty-five to
forty thousand men, has bean guarding the
mouth of the Shenandoah Valley, prevent
ing the rebels from making a raid into
Maryland and Pennsylvania. At one time
he followed them up the Valley as far as
Strasburg, when, in consequence OF heavy
re-inforcements to Early, he was
obliged to fall back to a position
running from Charleston to Berryville
in a line nearly North and South
The rebels in the meantime have had pos
session of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad
above Harper's Ferry, controlling it as far
West as Cumberland. On Friday last the
enemy disappeared from the vicinity Of
Berryville, on Sheridan's left, makit 6 the
impression that they were retiring toward
Winchester and Strasburg They howev-
ever were merely Withdrawing the forces
to the West of opequAn Greek, which runs
North emptying into the Potomac. This
movement of the rebels brought on an en-
.H.a.-
gagement which was probably a general
one for the possession of the valley.
The engagement seems to have been
one with the cavalry chiefly, in which
The rebels were driven twelve miles, with
a loss of $500 prisoners, nine battle-aags
and five pieces of artillery, If General
Sheridans victory is complete and he is
properly re-enforced, he will be able now
to push forward his forces toward Lynch
burg, the possession of which is so essen
tial to Grants success, and for which Gen
eral Hunter aimed, but without entire sue
cess. General Grants visit to Sheridan
indicates that active operations are soon tc
commences in other quarters of Virginia
and the crisp airs of October may witness
the final conflict which shall settle the
doom of the rebellion. Further details o
sheridan's splendid victory will be found
in the telegraphic dispatches.

Particulars of John NIOrgan's Death.


A correspondent of the Louisville Jour
nal, thus tells the story
{ aSucceediug in driving in the rebels,
our forces made Il junction, and a general
engagement began in the streets of Green
vile at daybreak on Sunday, the 4th.
Morgan was not in command up to this
time, but was quietly enjoying himself at
the house of Mrs. Williams, where he stay
ed during the night. The battle opened
with infantry and artillery, an aid rode
rapidly to Mrs. Williams and informed
the General, who was in bed and asleep
that the yankees had the town surround
ed. !; The half unconscious, commander
aroused from his blissfll stupor, but it was
too late; the "ruthless invaders were
upon him, and he had only time to draw
on his pants and boots, not waiting for his
stockings to be arranged, when he rushed
for the back door, and took refuge in the
vineyard, where, had he not been seen
hiding himself, he might have lain secure
from anything but the most vigilant
search. In an instant afterward group
of Union ladies might be seen eagerly con-
yersing in an adjacent cottage, when they
were suddenly interrupted by the entrance
of young lady, flushed and trem-
ulou swith excitement. In feverish ecstacy
she exclaimed Il know where John Nor
gan is hid, but am afraid to tell, although
| wish every rebel driven away from here
or killed" "Tell me; L am not afraid to
tell where any of the bush whaekeIs are, y
said one of the nobel women present. On
being informed, she hastily departed, and
amidst the shell and bullets, wbioh were
flying in every direction, she cody walked
up the first Federal soldier she met, and
directing him by the movement of her eye
to where the modern Dick Turpin and
Highwayman Jack lay crouehed, she re-
marked Soldier, if you viii take good
aim at that bush about the centre, you will
kill rebel, one who has helped to rob
plunder and murder the poor Union people
of Kentucky and Tennessee" Without
saying more she hurridly fed from hi'
side, and left the defender of his country
to avenge his country's wrongs. Did the
Union soldier dare to enter the garder
where the chief gurrilla was concealed ht
would have instantly fallen, either from
+, the bullets of his own comrades or those
of the rebels. Trusting to his unerring
rife he took good aim and fired. Instant
ly voice was heard to exclaim, 'tMy God,
and thus died instantly and without 8
struggle the notorious John Morgan.

the greatest pleasure TO be able to inform
you that / am still improving, and have
the highest hopes that my ear will be en-
tifely well by the time you first mentioned
it would take TO effect cure. I can say
that am truly thankful to the kind proVi-
denee which directed me to you. Since
the first few days use of your prescription,
my ear has improved, and almost at once,
was relieved from depressed state of feel
ing and an almost intolerable ache, to an
elastic and hopeful state of mind What
DR.. John Mott replied to me as his expert
ence, has been mine so far. My catarrhal
trouble seems very much better also, and
indeed, altogether, my health never was so
good. I am weighing some five pounds
more than is usual for me, land more than
I ever weighed before.)
I can but hope that it may be the good
fortune Of many with like troubles, to fall
in the way Of the benefit of your
skill, and knowing how great the fear Of
imposition is with those who, in times past,
may, like myself have suffered by it, and
feeling a wish, sincerely, at this time, to
aid and commend you in establishing a
hhiS. an deserved position among us in
your profession, beg, therefore, that you
Will not hesitate to refer to me, as it may
be of use. I also inclose herewith Professor
