The departure Of Bishop Kip.

For magnificent piece Of good humored
satire, we have not read better thing than
the following, from the San Francisco Ne,cs
Letter Of last Saturday:
This illustrious prelate, whose distinguish
ed abilities, varied accomplishments and
apostolic virtues, have been the theme Of our
frequent and feryid eulogy, took his farewell
of California yesterday. To say that he will
be sadly missed in those elegant circles which
he was SO eminently qualified by nature and
education to adorn, is to give but feeble and
inadequate expression Of the truth. His
place cannot be supplied, and we shall hope
in vain to look upon his like again. To
Grace Cathedral and the Parish School, :"
the loss will prove irreparable; while the
poor, the sick and the afflicted, will mourn
the absence of one who, notwithstanding the
enVrossing cares of his high office, was un-
firing in his ministrations to their necessi-
ties. In him were tremendously blended the
noblest qualities of the devout Christian, and
the philosophic man OF the world. His fer
vent piety was not disfgured by vulgar zeal
or fanatical fervor OF a Luther, Knox, or
Whitfield. He was great, alike in the pulpit
and in the drawing-room, and knew now 70
reconcile the principles Of the Gospel WIN
the duties of member Of good society; ne
was a pleasing speaker, an accomplished
bellies kttres scholar, and a thoroughly amla-
Bic man. OF the brilliant success that mas
attended his labors upon this coast, we nave
no time to speak at present. Under MS nIm,
wise rule, the Church has been thoroughly
harmonized and united, its limits enlarged,
and lis influence extended. He has departed,
leaving no enemy in this community, attend
ed by the prayers and good wishes Of the en-
fire Communion, whose love, esteem and ven
Grafton he had won no less by the magnanim-
ity of his heart than by the grandeur Of his
intellect. He takes with him our best wishes
for his future prosperity and happiness, In
any sphere to which it may please Divine
Providence to call him. To pray for his re-
turn would be selfish, and we breathe no such
;nt.rested petition. We have sufficient self
denial to be content that he should find some
wider sphere Of usefulness, where he will be
more fully appreciated than he has been,
outside of his own communion, in this semi
barbarian community. Meantime, so long as
Grace Cathedral continues to rear its impos-
sine site on Stockton street, and the solemn
Cathedral service echoes at yesper-time
through its resounding aisles, his memory
win be kept green upon the farthest verge Of
the Continent. Good Bishop! patriotic citi-
ZEN firm friend exemplary Christian mag
unanimous man hail and farewell
!

ingeach other with sleepless vigilance. Each
day adds strength to the defensive works.
The tug Of war, come when it may, will be
one Of the bloodiest of this bloody contest.
The Richmond Examiner Of September
22d, gravely asserts that Early's position at
Fishers Hill was impregnabte, whence he
could advance again on the enemy.
Two Treasury officers absquatulated from
Richmond after converting nearly hundred
millions in treasury notes into greenbacks.
The Enquirer admits thatthe first defeat OF

WASHINGTON, Sept. 25.-Late Charleston
papers contain an advertisement requiring
all male persons in that district, between the
ages Of sixteen and fifty to report for enroll
ment. The order extends throughout the
South; the object being to ascertain the pres
emit and prospective military strength OF the
Confederacy. In several military districts
the Shareholders are required forthwith to
furnish one-fourth, and in some cases one
half of their slaves, to work on the fortitca-
tons Of Charleston.
The Charleston Mercury says Kentucky
and Maryland are either lost or paralyzed,
and are now bound hand and foot to the car
Of the usurping despotism at Washington.
The Savannah Republican says the losses

that the rebels have changed their troops IN

assertions. The shotted salute on the I'D

Hill battery. Petersburg must have suffered
severely from the effects of the dropping OF
shells for thirty minutes. The rebels hardly
responded.

REBEL CoNsisrENcY.-The South !. fight
ing for the right Of Secession. That right was
expressly recognized in the Constitution Of
the Confederacy. Having legalized this prin'
ciple so far as in their power, and having
fought in favor of it for three years, one would
think that the rebels would live up to it. But
no. North Carolina talked Of seeding from
Secession, a. the Confederate Constitution
gave her the right to, but she was told that
She would not be allowed to go. Troops were
stationed throughout the State to coerce North
Carolina to remain in the Southern Confeder-
.acy. Thus, while in Virginia rebel soldiers
were fighting for the right Of secession, SOL
diers in North Carolina, commanded by the
same chief, were fighting against that right.
Could anything more plainly demonstrate the
utter absurdity of the political dogma in be-
half Of which the South commenced war -

Omcial Report from Stanton Con-
eePniuR the Late Victories.


WASHINGTON, September 26. - Dis
patches from Sheridan up to IL o'clock
Saturday night the oath, dated six miles
south of Newmarket, have been received.
He had driven the enemy from Noun
Jackson without being able to bring on q
general engagement. The enemy were
moving rapidly, and he had no cavalry
present to hold them. General Torbert
had attacked Wickham's force at Luray
Court House and captured number Of
prisoners. Sheridan found the rebel host
pitfalls in all the towns from Winchester to
Newmarket. Twenty pieces of artillery
were captured at Fishers Hill, together
with l,lOO prisoners, a large amount of
ammunition, caissons, timbers and large
quantity of intrenching tools, small arms,
etc. No list of the captured material has
vet been received. The small towns
through the valley have a great many
rebel wounded. General Stevenson re-
ports the arrival at Harper's Ferry
of a train Of our wounded, twenty
captured guns, and also eighty ad-
ditional captured officers. Breckin-
ridge has gone to take command of rebel
department in the southwest. Dispatches
received this morning from Sherman's
command, state that Hood appeared to be
moving toward the Alabama lines. A
strong force of rebel raiders is reported
operating against Sherman's communica-
tons. They had captured Athens, Ala
bama.
Vigorous exertions are being made to
overtake and destroy this force.
Jeff Davis is reported to be at Macon,
Georgia. Reports have also been receiv-
ed from Maj. Gen. Candy. General
Steele in Arkansas had been strongly re-
inforced, and had taken the offensive.
Dispatches from Gen. Grant, dated 10
o'clock last night, report 10 military ope-
rntions. The above comprises the sub
stance of the military information pro-
per for publication, up to the present
date by this department. (Signed,)

HOW TO ELECT DELEGATES.

Has it ever occurred to the people that
in all the packing of conventions, stuthng
of primaries and the corruption OF the con-
rention system, of which so much has been
written and said. that the actual fault has
lain with the people themselves: 1t
.hould have become, by this time, appa-
rent TO every thinking and observing citi-
zen that the voice of the people is exer-
cised, not at the general poll, but at that
primary election at which the delegates
are chosen by whom the ticket is nomi-
mated. After that, the respective tickets
once in the field, duly endorsed BY the
party as its choice, the question with the
citizen no longer is, what individual shall
al the office of honor, profit or trust, but
which of the two or three candidates thus
nominated by the respective conventions
shall he select as the most desirable or the
least Objectionable AL Of US who have
lived long enough in the world to take an
interest in its political concerns know
pretty well how the general machinery OF
the primaries has been heretofore conduct
ed. We know that the manufacture Of
the primary ticket has been the work, not
of the party, but of few self-constituted
leaders of the party, and that the mass,
unconsalted, and taken by surprise, have
acquiesced, and thereby sealed their
mouths against future murmur. There is
= way to avoid this chicanery. In pro-,
posing it, We lay no claim to originality,
for it has been canvassed and suggested to
US by others. Let each Club, at regular
meeting, or special meeting called for
that purpose, call upon its members to
make nominations for delegates to the
coming County Convention; the names
to be entered on record by the Secretary,
and subsequent evening appointed upon
which TO elect delegates from among those
nominated at the first meeting. By this
means every member of the Club will be
enabled to ascertain the views and senti-
ments OF every candidate for election on
the primary ticket. The above plan has,
as We have said, been suggested TO US, and
it occurs 10 US as more free from the |
"wire-working and "trap-sPrlnging"
objections of the old system than any that !
we have heard mentioned. We shall adj !
vocate it until we hear of better one. |
The call OF the Executive Committee !
makes it incumbent upon US to select !
those delegates on next Monday evening.
We must, therefore, if the above system is
adopted. have the first meeting on some
evening Of the present week. If the plan
appears to the officers of the respective
clubs as feasible, let them govern them
selves accordingly.

REPORTED CAPTURE OF BRECKENRIDGE
AND EARLY, AND 5000 PRIsoNERs.-An
officer stationed at Fort Churchill brought
the exciting intelligence to the city, last eve
ming, that a telegram had been received d.
rectly from the East, announcing the capture,
By Sheridan's army, Of Breckenridge and
Early, and 5000 rebel prisoners. The news
was announced in the Union Clubs late last
evening, and of course created the widest
en,husiasm.-Enterprise Of this morning.
We are sorry to spoil the good news.
1t was roorback, although the officer
from Fort Churchill was honest in making
the announcement. The late news OF
Sheridan's victories elated some Of the
Geographic operators so much, that several
of them between here and Fort Laramie
have, for the fun of the thing" been
playing each other little in private way,
and this Breckenridge news was one Of the
"goaks," which Fort Churchill folks
didn't understand. But we are sorry the
news is not confirmed.
