CORRECT THE ESRoLLMENT.-Itis is i'm
rortant that every township and bor-
ough should keep the enrolment cor
rect. If an excess of names are left
on the list, it increases the quota Of
each district Every man liable to mil
itary duty is interested in these cor
rections, for every man he can have
erased from the enrolment decreases
his chance Of being drafted if another
draft ever takes place. Provost Mar
shall Lloyd has advertised these facts,
and it will not be his fault if the lists
in this District are not correct. Read

LOCAL AFFAIRS.


TEMPERANCE.-A series of lectures
are being given under the auspices of
the Good Templars of this place, which
promise some good to the community
at large, One held on Monday even
ing, addressed by Rev. S. Barnes, was
not well attended, probably on account
of the weather keeping the people in
doors. The music at these meetings is
excellent, and we hope continuance
of the movement will secure a greater
interest on the part of the public.
OUR SoLDIERs,-Among the victims
to rebel cruelty, we are sorry to learn,
is Robert Dufur, son of Calvin Dufur
of this place, who died from neglect in
one of the prison pens of the South,
about the 18th September He re-
sided at Altoona at the time of his en-
listment in the 54th Pa Vols, and
with many others was taken prison
er in an assault on one of the rebel
works near Petersburg last spring. He
was steady and industrious young
man, esteemed by all who knew him,
and leaves wife and children to
deplore his martyrdom in the cause of
his country, who, with his parents and
other relatives have, we are sure, the
heartfelt sympathy of all classes in
their bereavement.

OctODer ZIj loot. -
The army has moved. The troops are
gone. The last train has disappeared,
and the last soldier has taken his fare
well peep of the south side Of the Coosa.
The shadows of night creep slowly oyer
the scene, and the stars look down in
vain for the camp.fires that answered but
yesternight thcir own respondent glitter:
"The bridge Ia up, and the channel hows
An impassablo nood botwixt us and them"
You may hear, indeed, the clink of a
few rusty chains, which are left behind (;
you may see, indeed, dim outlines Of a
few old wagons, that did not cross the
stream, and now and then youmay meet
o stray quartermaster or teamster crop
ing about In the gloom; but tho great
caravan, with its wild menagerie, has
passed beyond the stretch OF eye and
ear, and has left the world of Gadsden
sin darkness and to me-"
On yesterday Stewards corps marched
out in the van. II was followed by Lee,
or rather Dick Taylor. who occupies the
centre; and to-day at dawn the delighted
Tennslseeans under Cheatham crossed
the river Jordan or Coosa. May they
not find it hard load to travel!) The
transportation quickly followed, and at
noon the pontoon was taken upand also
hurried forward after the troops.
What does it meant It has but one
signification. That is forward" Gen.
Hood has at last struck the right chord,
and comprchends the true policy. No
matter what the critics may say--rio
matter what the books-may say--no mat
ter what silence may say--se lose more in
retreat than we do in advancing. The
nature of our troops demands action, and
they will not beaf retrograde. General
Cheatham was quite unwell when he
mounted to follow his corps, 'but,v said
he, 1--WE are going home now, and I'll
strap myself to my saddle before they
shall leave me behind" Gen. Beaure-
gard is with Gen. Hood. Every general
officer is at his post, and the spirit and
morale Of the men unbounded.
We shall cross the Tennessee river, as
is generally believed, near Guntersville,
at about tomorrow night and the next
day. The weather is delicious and the
roads good. The days are just cool
enough to make q tramp of thirty miles
a healthful exercise, and the nights not
too cold for sound and happy slumbers
by great log heaps. The country is clad
in her gayest suit to greet the soldiers as
they pass, and to cheer them on to The
land of wine a. TX and honey. What
pleasant benel.ctions the pougffs Of CHEST
nut, beech, and maple, which clasp their
hands above the marching columns, cast
down upon the soldiers head, and how
these deepening tints of "orange, scarlet
and apple green" remind him of home
and peace ! May God in His infinite
mercy and grace, send to these brave
men, who have toiled SO long and SO
