New YoRK, Oct o9.-The Tribunes cor
respondent at Warrens Station, 9th, says
this morning the entire army is in motion,
with six days rations, and ammunition for
any emergency. The movement is left
flank, and on the extreme left Gregg's cav
airy is swinging around towards the south
side Of the railroad and the Appomatox !;
then comes the 9th corps in martial array,
the LIST division tapping the cavalry with
rafting artillery, and the other divisions
extending to the 9th corps, upon the 3D. and
right division Of which, as upon pivot, the
revolving line is turning, while the I'd di-
visions Of the I'd corps are keeping tune
with the increment as a reserve. The i'm
mediate objective point of the movement is
the South Side Railroad and the Appoma-
tox river, in = circle Of existing fortified
line Our line being once extended to the
river with this natural barrier between ours
and the main rebel army, it will be a very
cnsy matter, as will be seen by reference to
the map, to keep the Danvillc Railroad on
the south side Of the Appomatox constantly
cut by cavalry raids. 1t is impossible to
foresee at what point the movement will
stop, but do not think the plan is to ex-
the movement, particularly at this time,
farther than t. the Appomatox. The Dan
vile Railroad south Of the Arpomatox will
naturally be the next point Of attack.
Gen. Grant has just arrived from City
Point with four orderlies and two days IA
tons Of sandwiches, &c. lie yesterday
sent all his body guard Of cavalry to Join
Gregg's cavalry on the extreme left. The
diminishing has already commenced ~ the

Auspicious Signs.

In the extract. lately published in this jour
nal, says the Richmond Dispatch, from the
Richmond correspondence Of the London
Norniyg Herald, it was clearly shown that
the Yankee draft had asQyed.a failure. The
recent debate in the UDilcd Sia.cs Gcnete
upon the crazy proposition Of u Sciiutur from
Wisconsin. to raise a million Of men for the
d.l;yershce Of the Yankee prisoners in Rick:
mopd. eljci,ca the declaration from Senator
Wilson that q huna:ad thousand might pes
siblv be raised, but tina. these FaT %recrultl
would soon he disposed of by the veterans OF
General Lee. The bounties offer
ed for volunteers, show the increased difficult
ties o. raising men fo7 the Yankee armies.
Gold is higher in New York thar ever before
If The Confederate Congress aud tue people
of the Confederate S!-tes nov dc their duty,
the 6. winter of our Giscontent," anier the
blessings OF Providence, will give place to a
GLORIOUS spring, aid tie backbone Of the
| Yankee invasion will be finally and forever
broken. Only let Us bs true 10 ourselves,
and inspire the semy IN cpr front With the
moral effect Of a harmonious aud determined
people and the starry cross of the Confs6era.
CIV will emerge from the clouds and darkness
which now surround it in o blaze of glory.
# is unmauly, wicked, aud traitorous to
despair under such circumstances as now sur
round Us. Let the croskers aud fault tinders,
for the sake of their country, consent to an
armistice of three months, and devote that in
teryal, bsfpfc the opening of the campaign,
to working chesrfully and haanoniously in the
common cause. Let the whole Conlederecy
rise rs one man, and strike such a blo# as q
great peopleiought to strike Or its liberties
and rights. Let the ~stragelers and absentees
come back to their gallant and faithful breth.
rem. One grand effort more and we are free.
With the glorious triumph of the Confederate
arms, which ne confidently anticipate in tho
coming spring, the military and financial
power of'AinSoindofh viii be crushed. and

uTo the Memory Of Wiliie." :
Oh! it was hard with thee,

My singing bird, whose childish sles

Oh! how I loved my WILLIE dear,
And watched as d=y,by day,
His opening beauties bqrst to view,
Nor thought they could decay.
And yet, sometimes the fear would oOne
That he was all too dear,
And caused too much Of happiness,
To l;nger with me here.
But soor, alas ! my rosebud,
Slowly began to fadc-
Yet stiNs / thought tho canker-worm,

But God has claimed my WILLIS,
= And all my anxious care,
A mothers yearniag tenderness,
A mothers fsrvent prayer,
Gould bind thsm here NO longer.
E'er my lors's enduring chain
Yet it soothss nay heart to knew, in heaven
It will be linked again.
And now, though am lonely,
And for my lest one sigh,
I.Eouid not that be had net lived,
Zen though he had to die.
For his sweet memory is o stream
Tolife's parchod desert giveni

Thasbinas my soul to Heaven.
And; yet, perhaps, tuere better thus
Than he had 1iyod to .wine

Yes. love! thou vert too sensitive
TO bear ear,h's eankering woes;
Thsrs rest thee, darling! rest thee, -
In thy haven of repcse!
And when the spring-t;ms concth
will deck thy little bed
With such sweet flowers as last spring-time
For thee their fragrance shed.
And as til-y bloom above thy tomb,
Beneath ,hop'lt sweotly. sleep,
While the dew that vets tho yiolst
Will for its playmate weep:
