We make the following extract
from the speech of Mr.. Chaunccy T..
Burr delivered recently in New York
before the Working Mems Associa-
ton:
We are not crushing arebellion.-
We are rcbcllins ourselves. What
Is called the rebellion is a thousand
fold stronger now than it was when
we began this bloody suicide called
crushing it, The man that calls this
bloody business Saving the Union"
deserves Il strait jacket OF halter, for
Il dupe or a knave he must be. What
Il picture is that, of IA Union held to-
gcthcr by the pressure of the blood
OF its victims. If that bc Union.
what would be disuuion 7 a mum
Der of States pressed together by the
force of armies, and kept together on
ly by the prick of the havonet, would
not be a Union, but would be precise
" the reverse of everything that goes
to make a Union. And herein lies
the great folly of the hour. The sue
cess of Mr.. Liucoln's war would be
the most fatal destruction of the Tn
! ion, inasmuch as it would not only
make an eternal end of that consti-
tutional relation of the States
which constitutes the | uien, but it
would destroy the very principle on
which all the governments, State and
Federal, are founded. 1t would strike
the soul out of the American system,

Tho New York Herald of the lS;h
uIt, contains the proceedings of an
immense mass meeting held at the
Cooper Institute the previous even
ing. One Of the resolutions adopted
earnestly recommended a concerted
effort to place at the head Of the Go
vernment man in whose wisdom,
integrity, and firmness, the country
may rely, for the speedy suppression
of tho rebellion, the cessation Of
bloodshed, and the maintenance OF
the'union of independent States
Another resolution declares in favor
of Mcclellan for President. They
were adopted by acclamation. 1t is
evident that great efforts are being
made for the defeat Of Lincoln at the
approaching presidential election,
and Mcclellan, thus far, seems to
stassl a fair chance in the race for
the white house.

very reason that we should make

General Grant Moving ON the Rebel
Right wing.

from the Richmond Sentinel, Nov. qsl
There was some eannonading at Dutch Gap
yesterday, but nothing OF importance occurred
on other parts OF the line.
We learn from Washington that Grant left
there on Wednesday for the front, and before
leaving held consultations with the Secretary
of War and Secretary Of the Navy. This may
foreshadOw the combined attack by the land
and naval forces, so long threatened, and
which Yankee correspondents declared was
only delayed until the Dutch Gap canal was
finished. There la, however, q prospect of an.
other season OF rainy weather, and conseQ Quent-
ly condition OF the roads that will lay an
embargo upon the movements OF artillery.
When Grant does move he will meet with OBJ
stacles Of greater magnitude than mud or rain
the invincible army OF Northern Virginia.
Scouts report that Grant Is gradually moving
his tronps TO our right, and II the weather con
tinues favorable he will probably make another
effort In that direction.
The Petersburg Express says the Yankees are
sending out frtqusnL scouting parties In the
counties below, who commit the most fragrant
Outrages on the innocent families along the
route. few days since, We understand, some
of these parties visited Surry Court House, and
killed G plain Falkland, a citizen Of thai
county, and proprietor Of the tavern at tht
Court House. They shot Falkland whilst the
latter was endeavoring 10 escape from them
Numerous other outrages are reported, com
mitt.d by small bodies Of negro cavalry, som,
Of them TOO hldeous for record.
