NEW YoRK, Sept. IA private letter from
MorganZa states that everything there is pro-
crossing favorahly. The order for the cOnsol-
dation of the colored regiments had been re-
ceived by Gen. Canhy, and Gen. Ullman was
authorized to take measures TO have these forces
recruited from the plantations. A few skeleton
colored regiments were dlsbanded, the men
being put into the existing regiments, thus
bringing them up TO more effective numerical
standard.
Quite force Of uuiOn troops Is being con-
centrated on the Mississippi river, either in
anticipation Of movements by the rebels or for
offensive movements. The rebels have q force
of some Is 900 men, under Gene. Walker and
Polignac, above Alexandra. sixteen scouts be-
longing tn his force have lately been captured
by Gen. Ullman's pickets.
Flying squads of rebels continue TO hover on
the banks OF the Mississippi to flre into passiug z
steamboats,, but the Indications are, from the
military movements about being projected by
Gems. Candy aud Reynolds, that this will soon
be stopped.
The health Of the army continues good and
the morale Of the cOlored troops highly salts
factory.
The cotton crop Is said to be almost failure
In Louisiana, from the rayages of the worm,
which has made Its appe rance as high up as

at adds to the regrets which the death of
Gen. Morgan has caused (says the Lynchburg
VrgiaidH) to know that he fell a victim to
treachery, and did not fall in fair and open
fight. A woman, at whose house he was
spending the Dight-a Mrs. Williams, said to
be native of Lynchburg-rodo 10 the nearest
camp of the enemy sud Informed them of his
whereabouts. Eager on securing so illustrlous
prize, they lost no time in repairing to the
spot, surrounded the house, and, while thus in
their rcr, the noble chief received his death
wound l4i Jugh the heart.

The town. The false creature who thus, in
violItiou Of all the soft and gentle promptlngs
Of her \, has brought the blood of our
Priucely hero upon her head, deserves the
execratious Of friend and foe, the ceascless
lashings of conscience-if she has one-and
anathemas for time and eternity"
We are inclined to believe that Mrs. Will
lIams will enjoy the proud consciousness of
having performed heroic act, aud one which
is Of more value to our cause than the slaugh-
ter of whole regiment of rebels.

II seems that only a portion of the Peace
men arc dissatisfied with McClelan's letter.
Some Of the strongest Peace Journals and
writer's In the country remain true to him. On
sober reflection, ihev see that the talk of Nc.
Clcllau about resortng to war again, after two
or three years consumed in negotiations
through convention, is only buncombe, put
in to r1iet the easy consciences of the lImpipr
War men. The following letter is significant:

BROTHER SMITBsoS.-John W. Burke, Sta
tioner and Bookseller, Macon, Ca, publishes
little Sunday School paper, for the benefit of
the Sunday School little rebels, aud Jeff. Davis,
and the aforesaid John W. Burke. From the
number now before us we take the following
injunction TO all little rebs;
"WM. I. SMITH.oS.-We have a request to
make of our little readers-it is that they will
pray for him whose name heads this article.
He now lies a convict in Yankee State prison
for his devotion to the cause of the South. Yes,
for the love of country and his efforts to pro-
mote It's interest he Is accounted telOH and is
put with murderers, thieves and robbers. He
who had engraved In life-lke pictures thelike-
nesses of those who are the pride of the South
ern Church, has suffered for months past all
the disgrace and ignomlny that a cruel, cow
ardly foe can heap upon him.
"Oh, dear children, pray for him; don't for
get his kindness to our church, his love for the
tive laud, and, above all, what he now suffers.
Perhaps God may hear and answer your
prayers and cause his wicked enemies to relent
and turn him loose. The same God who re-
leased Paul and silas and Peter, when friends
prayed for their release, still lives and answers
prayer.
Don't forget Brother smithson."
Now we happen to know the worthy repre-
| sentative of secession Methodism. lie wai

of various other acts of treason. Smithson wal

Tranquility being re-estabIished in Colombia,

We print by permission the following pun
gent and philosophical extract from a private
letter recently written by our distinguished
fellow citizen, and the eminent rublicist, DIR.
Lie5or;
"The Chicago platform appears to my mind
the well framed creed of Northern servility to
the criminal arrogance OF the South-a sane.
tion of highest handed lawlessness. The cec.
tlon Of General Mcclellan means armistice-
armistice means separation-separatiO means
dibintsgration, (the instant separation Of Cali
fornia, the dropping of Of Utah, an empire in
the Mississippi Valley, the excison OF New
En- Island, ard an inorganic clustering and re.
clustering OF the Eastern Middle States without
anv inherent character)
Disintegration means defiance to the wonder
fully great and self completing, geography Of
our country. and lapse into that state which
befell Europe at the beginning of the middle
ages, when principalities rose and fell, eudur.
| ing only long enough to perpetuate the san
| culinary turmoil; It means q repetition OF the
chronic revolution which has sfllicted South
America this half century, possibly with q
neighbor growing In monarchic power, which
soon would claim the right of extension and
recuperation. Dlsintegration means the reck.
less rising against that policy which the Dis.
poser OF Events has ordained as the normal
type of modern civilization, against the ma,
| tionalized government, which Is the opposite
to the halting league, the vast, yet incoherenl
monarchy, the provincial kingdom, the petty
State and the fragmentary feudalism.
1t means quarreling, bloodshed and ruin,
without an idea, for a century to come, and
| disgrace forever. II means the beartless de,
struction of nation appointed to perform
great and sacred tasks. II means all this, and
slavery to boot, that 'divine institution
whose altar is the auction table, on which the
un divine ties OF parents and children are torn
asunder by the auctiopeer, who thus becomes
a holy missionary Of the worshIpped insti.u.
tion."-N J. Times, Sept. 10.

Wild rumors prevail in New York to-day to
the effect that the Government has received
important news which they will not allow to
be transmitted to the country over the tele-
graphic wires.
This absurd story is, of course, the offspring
of a Wall street "bull," and was engendered
for the purpose of raising the price of gold.
Our armies are quiet, and no news OF import
ance had been received up to the hour of going
to press.
The story Of Farragut's neet having ap-
preached within Shelling distance of Mobile,
in line of battle, is entirely dlsbelleved at the
Navy Department. 1t Is no part of Farrsgut's
plan to attack Mobile with his gupJoats.

PuL.DELPHIA, Sept. ia copy of the
Richmond Sentinel, received here, has an arti-
Gle on Gen. Shermnn's order for the deporula-
tlon of Atlanta, calling 1t "an event uuparal-
elled In the American war, aud without an ex-
ample In modern times !" II calls Sherman
" the chief among savages the captain among
pirates; the leader among highwaymcn; the
prince among scoundres and brutes--the fore
most villain in the world" "sherman," 1t
says, "has given the war a new feature. Stern
as It has been, II Is hVnceforth TO be stcrner.
Horrible as Il has been, 1t Is hrncefnrth to be
more so. The people are ready. Better for
battling age or lisping innocence to die in de-
fence Of home than TO be driven out In herds
TO languish In exile. The last man and the
last boy among us must take his muskct
sooner than endure such outrages as that at
Atlanta"

For the convenience of our friends who have
occasion frequently TO refer to the platforms of

the UNION PLATFORM.

.. The paramount authority Of the National
Constitution and laws.
3. he suppression of the rebellion by force
OF arms.
4. The punishment of rebels and traitors.
3. No compromise with rebels.

7. An amendment of the National Constitu-
tion forever prohibiting slavery.
Endorsement Of the war policy Of the Ma
tiOnal Administration.

10. Full protection for the rights Of all sol
diers of whatever race.

value than the preservation of the Union aud
the safety Of the nation.

D. An immediate armistice, involving the
raising OF the blockade, the release Of the
Whole southern coast, LhI Withdrawal of our
