“ The 290.”—An unknown correspondent
•5c : '-d: Uu lb-.? following explanation :
‘ The origin of the name of the 290 is this*:
B a regulation of the Admiralty all the English
ship builders number the ships constructed at
their respective yards, previous to their being
named, which is usually done at the launching,
the £90 ^vas the 290ih ship built at that particu
lar yard, audj being designed for foreign owners,
G:i*j kept her number in lieu of a name. This is
a capital regulation, and should be adopted
wherever ships are constructed, for the con
venience of designating a vessel under con
struction previous to her being named, and
other good reasons.”

Clotliing and Slioee for tlie Arnry.
The Press cannot too often urge this subject
"on the minds and hearts cf tlifiir readers. We ;
therefore ea*y *and adopt an eloquent appeal I
from thffRichmond Dispatch. It says:
We cannot avoid again recurring to this sub
ject. It is the most important one* that can at
present engage the attention, not only of Con
gress and tlXTWar Department, but of the whole
country. If onr trroop3 can be properly clad,
properly fed, and properly clothed, we may
defy the enemy to do his worst. For the arti
cle of food wo Icara that ample provision Las
been made. For the article o? shoes we observe
that Congress has passed a law f o organize a
corps of 2,000 sV ». makers for the public ser
vice. They are enough, if it be pos'-ibl-i to
procureJcather, which we believe it I?. It is
here, especially, that tbc*p^rioiism of the men
and women oi the country might ccmo in as a
powerful aid to the government Let every
body who has a scrap of leather that can by ex
ercising the most severe self-denial, devote it;
to the service of the country. Let nobody who
has leather part with it to anybody but an agent
of the government. Let everybody who has
no leather, but has money, contribute as much
as can be spared by any possible- means, to
purchase leather.. Let it be bought if possible j
What we Aitu to EiHJfbr. —There has been,
allalong, a latent b* lief in the South that the
bltier hostility felt by (he Lincoln Government
had no real sympathy in the hearts of the
Northern people—that the Chiet Executive
availed himself of a despotic power which the
circumstances cf the time had placed in his
hands, and that all freedom of opinion was
s. r.upprcssed by the strong arm of the military.
||5i? I We have, to a more or less extent, based itn-
'**' portant calculations on this supposition, and
b:.cn led to belisve that some undefined and
fortuitous event would soon happen to curb
the vengeance of the Yankee rulers and bring
about a cessation of hostilities.
The address pf the Yankee Governors, which
w ^ k wo publish thisjuorning, should dissipate this
•., dehia-pa, and open up to us correct views of
t*~ *the future. Their moctlrgat Altoona was com-
* - l n posed of Republicans end Democrats, nnfl all
agreed not only on the prosecution of the war,
but in cordially sustaining and endorsing the
course of Lincoln in all its extravagance, euor-
, mity and despotism. The address proves, what
we have long since ceased to doubt, that wo have
very few friends at the North, that the great
body of the people have become thoroughly
r.ubdued^n.1 abolitionist, and that .we have
nothing to hope from in that quarter. Lincoln
understood his people when he issued his late
proclamation. It was based upoa the prevail
ing sentiment throughout his dominions, and
lie La w that the few who would protest against-
it rrero insignificant.
L?t us, then, abanion all hope of peace for
the present, and gird up oar loins for a cou-
tinued struggle with a united North. It i3
clear that hostile intervention from abroad—
which is next to hopeless—or an utter over
throw of the armies of Lincoln, ore toe only
hope of peace. When we shall have driven
the enemy from Virginia, Kentucky and Mis
souri, \7j will have doac-all that the sentiment
of mankind would require of a people both
anxious and able to free. It wili be a time for
the war to cease, and another hostile foot
placed upon our territory shcnkl be regarded
a' r.n act of felony, and as such punished with
d.-alh. No war of extermination can b§ jasti-
lic I In this enlightened age, and the party who
wages it is a criminal in the sight of Gcd and
an ! should be treated as such.
Richmond, Va., Oct- v Q:h, 1SG2.
Mir. Editor : Some time since you published
in your paper an extract from a private letter*
which stated that I, while with my Captain,
thirty yard?; in advance of the company during
a charge, v;as severely .wounded—had to be
j-arrlcd to the rear, &c.
A3 some have inferred from this that the
company \fras a little tardy in advancing, it i6
but justice to tire company for mu to state that
at no time during the charge was I near the
Captain. The author of the letter was certainly
mi-informed; for the company, at the lime 1
was wounded, v.as deployed as skirmishers, and
I w.’-i nvar the extreme left, some distance from
•the Cap win. Yours, respectfully, <§rc.,

Roseechanz’ Army.—The Jackson correspon
dent of-the Herald, writing under date of Sep

1 Maj. Gen. Roscncranz now commands the ar-
•-my-c 1 the Mississippi, and all of the army of
Tennessee, which is stationed at the oid
" : po?:lion around Corinth, composing a splendid
army of at least forty thousand fighting men,
who have almost every one borne the fierce
brunt of battle, and who have lull conSdeuce
r.nd faith iu the ability and courage of their
commander. With such an army, and a posi
tion as strong as his, Roscncranz i3 impregna
ble,, and there is not the least danger of his
being whipped by any army the rebels can con
centrate. ,
The English Press on Pche.—The Londop
Post cudeavors to prove the iucompetency^ of
Gen. Pope by his own reports.
The London Times says that Gen. Pope, by
his own reports, has succeeded in showing that
if there was one man morn than another unfit
to have command in the Federal army, it is the
querulous general who puts the blame of every
lailare upon others.
The Mayor of Vicksburg denies that any bill
lor damages done to the city by the recent bom
bardment has been presented to the Confeder
ate government. He says "the city itself has
repaired the damage, .and will never ask rerun*
ncration therefor from any source. ”
wherever it exists, even from, speculators, at
any p-k-e however exorbitant. Send all the old
shoes you may have and can spare, to be half-
soled for the troops. Rake and scrape together
every scrap of leather you can possibly lay
your hands on for this holy purpose. If tbo
whole people wifi set to work, the army car: be
shod and kept in shoes; and we feel assured
that they will set to work iu right gocdcae:-?st.
So in the way cf clothing and blankets. Send
everything you can possibly spare. Get os.na-
burgs, where you have no blankets to spare,
sew the pieces together, and stulf them with
cotton. Learn to sleep under as few blankets
a3 possible, tbo$.you may eer.d the overplus to
the soldiers.
Remember, men ana women of the Confed
erate States, the array of Virginia Is etauding
! guard over you, your homes, and your liber-
tier, uo matter ih what part of the country you
may be. If once that army be forced to leave
the field, from the want of clothes to ke. p off
the piercing blasts, su'd cold rain?, and driving
snows of winter, the wave of invasion will
sweep over the whole lj»r.d, :Uid bury you un
derneath it. And winter is -r.ipidly approach
ing. Our men cannot stand guard or march
over the frozen ground without warm clothing,
socks and shoes, q’ho cold will prove more
terrible^ than the bayonets of the Yankees.
They will be compelled to leave the field if they
have not three comforts. And are yen not
proud of that army ? It has won fer you al-
.ready a name which no people ever had at tbo
commencement of a national career. It ba3
fought battles a'nd gained victories sufficient to
have conferred undying lustre on any people
that ever existed. It has protected you in the
hour of need. Bui fur Its courage and devo
tion you would be, at this moment, the sub
jects ot the most hateful tyranny, and the most
odious tyrant that the world ever beheld. Yon
would bo tfio subjects .of the Yankee nation,
and of Abraham Lincoln. Do you not owe
•^liem r _then, a debt of gratitude, which the
labor of a long life would, not be too- such' to.
1 extinguish ?
But they ask of you In return only" to givo
them the means of serving you still farther.
They want only clothes to face the weather,
and they will still bo ready to fight for you to
the last drop of their blood as they, have fought
for you hitherto. You arc not .expected to do
all, but to do the best .you can. The govern
ment will do the best it can, but the crisis Is
too serious to be left altogether to the govern
ment. It wants help. Come forward and lend
it as you have'done heretofore. And thero is
r.o time to lose. Come quickly—cocpe at
onac- or it may be too late. In the high coun
try about Winchester the nights are already
extremely cool. The frosts have begun to fall.

Mr. Editor: So quiet has everything been

paper to writq this letter. Another strong rea
son for-further silencer is that the run shines
warmly alter a cool, airy night just past, invi
ting the soldier who has shivered it through to
come and doze in its genial ^rays. Winter
you’ll perceive begins to grow* a little bold
here, rising under cover of night behind the
Alleghanie*; to blow l\is agtied breath upon ns
just while blankets are scarce. JTis not diffi
cult to lie ut night and watch the stars “in the
quiet skies,” for .^inter’s aly breath keeps
l ndgingone to wake/ulnbs.q and -the Plicudt
do not march silently in their nocturnal round
unobserved. Besides, the difficulty of writin.
in camp—which, of course, should be over
come—present*serious obstacles to sending let
ters regularly. Paper crumpled and greasy out
of a haversack don’t write well; seated flat on
the ground a la Oriental is tiresome, and ang
ling for thoughts over a piece of flour barrel
for portfolio amidst the noise and confusion of
n rebel camp is very discouraging sport, to say
’he least of it. Excitement in camp now lias
to depend mainly qn a few daring culprits, de
nominated by the men “Roastin’-car Ringers.”

have two company drills, one drill in the man
ual of arms for the “barefooted.squadone bat-

very proper orders have been read to regiment
al and company commanders to have careful
inspection oParms, ammunition and cleanliness
of the men daily. Tim.-, you perceive, while
am Interim is prevailing between tbo bloody
acts of this feariul tragedy, we are preparing to
execute cur nexi appearance in the best man
ner.
I am not at all posted as to the-eneray’s posi
tion, except (hat. there are some of his forces
near Ilarpei’s Ferry, but they do not venture
across. Our movements wilt mainly depend
upon his, which have not been t f Jhat fcvrfcl
pushing kind that one would, have expected
from reading the wonderful annihilation of this
army boasted of by the Yankee journals over
their victories in Maryland. McClellan gains
much eclat from Ills own despatches, but lies
follow because results anticipated are rot
brought about. The Iltbcl army was fearfully
routed, and yet w*' lie quietly hero cn this ride
t of the Potomac with just room enough for him
to ccme across, and he does not care to ‘.‘break
the back” ot tbis rebellion by a grand final
blow which he proposes could be made. Mc
Clellan Is a vain man, fighting for the fame of
fools, with fools who fight from fanaticism.
Wc may bo urged across by those not as wise
a3 he, bnt I am persuaded it will be reluctantly
done. Halleck may deem it wisdom to pursue,
judging from McClellan’s report and despa'-ch-
ee, and urge that the victory be followed up.
By such means wc may yet have more fighting

7 HE Captpeb oi THE Sukeeam.—The capture of the
steamer Sunbeam, t$ora Liverpool, laden with powder
and arms for the Confederate states, Is announced in
the Northern papers. She was taken off New Inlet,
N. C, on tho 27th hit, by ilje steamerstato of Georgia!
A letter says:
This morning af daybreak wo made a steamer run
nlng along the Trying Pan Shoals, just off the point of
Smith’s Island. "Wo at once shipped and gave chase.
Tho State of Georgia also got under weigh and follow
ed. She, b«ing tho fastest boat, soon passed us, and
under full head of tteam steered tb intercept <ho Btran-
ger. ft was just a nice question whether whether wo
should stop her in tjmo. Already the gars at the fort
on Federal Point had opened on us, and tho shells were
whizzing over our heads at each discharge.. We, how
ever, stood on right for the channel, determining that
if ehe got past the State oi Georgia we would sink her
or Le tank ourselves by the fort.
The State of Georgia at last got near enough to open
with her Parrot rifle, and, sending a shot across her
fore foot, she came to at onco and “caved in,” We
were all astonished that she should have given up bo
easily: but when.we found that the bulk of her cargo
was gunpowder it was not so very remarkable; for a
shell in her edrgo might possibly have blown her up.
She proved to he the Anglo-rebel screw steamer Sun

Losses of tlio two Aianlcs—Thc Bal
ance Slicet.
The Richmond Dispatch contains a long and
interesting exhibit of the losses of tlio two
armies from the crossing of the Rapidan to tho
cloao of recent operations on tne Potomac. We
give an extract:
Tho government has accurate lists of our*killed,
wounded and missing. From the liapidan, all through
tho campaign to Harper’s Ferry, they number about'
11,500. At Sharpaburg onr loss was about 5,000. But
supposo wo had lost 30,000, as McClellan’s lying re
ports Indicate. Suppose, too, he lost no more than he
allows, that is to say, 14,790] men, at Sharpsburg and
la the preceding engagements. Still his campaign is
an unprofitable one, for his losses are nearly as great
as outs, oven according to this stitenent. At Har-
rcr’a Kerry ho lost 11,500; at Sha^psourg 14,790; at
Harper’s Ferry again, S,0C0, killed wounded and
drowned, and 500 prisoners. Here his losses are 29,790
certain—part ascertained from his own statement, Dart
from tho statements of our Generals—and he does not
claim to have inflicted on us a loss of more than thirty
thousand—balance in his favor, 204 men. He claims
13 guns. We took 73 at Harper’s. Ferry. Balance 4 in
our favor, CO guns. Taking the whole campaign, wen
on this statement, from the Bapidan to Winchester, it
i? enormously in onr favor. Still more is it eo when
we look at it through the medium of other statements,
combined with his.
Let us see what will be tho result li we take our own
statements for onr losses and their statements for their
Our loss In tho whole campaign, from tho Eapidan
to the recroasing into Virginia, was. accord ng to the
statement of Mr. Crocker, about 11,500 killed, w'ound-
ed, and missing. The Yankee loss at Harper’s Ferry
was according to their own .admission, the samo.—
These two, then, balance each other, and all tho rest
Is clear gala for us. First, they admit a loss of 8,000
at Cedar Run ; (they actually lost more nearly 7,000.)
Pope says they ioat in tho battle of the 29ih of August
6.000. The Baltimore San (or American, we do not
recollect which, but we published tho statement at tho
time) says thev lost17,000 in all the campaign up to the
second battle of Manassas, which would give 6,000 for
the tattle of tha 25th- rope, we believe, says they lost
T,00o men. at Manassas. (Gen. Lee, by-the by, parol
ed that number on the field.) McClol'an says they
lost 14,796 at South Mountain • and Antietam. Lastly
at the crossing, when they were attacked by A. P.
Hill, they lest 8,500 killed, wounded, and missing —
Total, in round numbers, according to their own'
statements wit a regard to their own losses, 42,000,
clear balance in our favor.
But the real loss was fay greater. General Lee pa
roled 7,000 prisoners on the field of battle at Manassas.
Three thousand wounded prisoners who wore captured
by us had not had their wounds dressed on the third
day after the battle. Every man who eaw the field
says these were at least five dead or wounded Yankees
to one Confederate; Every man ^ho eaw tho field oP
Bharpsburg says thero were five or 6ix Yankees lying
there to one Confederate. A correspondent of tho New
Yerk Tribune says McClellan lost 28,000 men there.
Th’s, we have no donbt, is wi'hia the mark, for Mc
Clellan has never yet acknowledged the half ofhis loss
on a single occasion. His loss on the 14th all “Confed
erate accounts put down at at least 5,000. Her?, then,
Is a statement ol what we believe to be very' nearly the
loss of tho Yankees since Jackson first crossed tho
Rapidan; _

Such we believe to be very nearly the true slate of

and taken prisoners, the Yankees have lost, in the
campaign from the Rapidan, at least that number of
men, and we give our reasons :• bove for-thinking so.

The Address,of Loyal Governors Co
* tlio president, “ v * ■*
Address to the President of tha United Slates, adopt
ed at a Meeting of Governors of Loyal Stales, held
to take measures for the more active support of the
Government, at- Altoona, Pennsylvania, on the
22d day of September, 1SG2,
, After nosrly or.o year and a half spent in content
with as a’lned and gigantic rebellion against the Na
tional Government of the United States, the duty and
purpose of the loyal States and people continue, and
must always remain as they were a; its origin, name
ly: to res’toro and .perpetuate tho authority of this
government and the life -of tho nation? No matter
what consequences are involved in our fidelity, this
w it of restoring .the Republic, preserving the.institu-
ti na of democratic liberty, and justifying the hopes
and toils of our fathers, shall not fail to be performed.
~ An A we pledge, without hesitation, to the President
of the United suites, tuo most loyal and cordial sup
port hereafter, as heretofore; in the exercise of the
fan-iions of l.i3 great office.’ Wo recognise in him iho
Chief Executive Magistrate of the Nation, tho Coin-
nimdor- n-Chief of tho Army and Navy cf tho Unbed
Slates, their responsible and constitutional herd. !
v.h««e right.'n‘ authority and power, as well as the
constitutional powers of Congress, dust be religiously
gnhrded end preserved, as the condi’Ion on which
alone oifr form ct government and the constitutional
rights and liberties of the people themselves can bo
saved fr m tlie wreck of anaroby or from the gulf of
despotism. r *
In submission to the laws which may have been or
which may he duly ^nactc-d, and to the Lawful orders
of the President, co-operatmg alwajs, in our ovm
r-pheres, with tho National Government, wo mean to
continue in the most vigorous exercise ot nil out law
ful aqd proppr powers, contending ugainst treason, re
bellion, and the public enemies, and, whether in pub
lic life or In private station, supporting the arms of th*r
I'nioo, until its caure shall conquer, until final victoiy
-fehail pe:ch upon its standard, or the rebel foo shall
yield a dutiful, rightful, and uncondllionsl submis
sion.
And, impressed wilh the conviction that an army of
r.'serve ouriit, until tho war shall end, to bo consta: t-
!y kept ctr foot, to ba raided, armed, equipped, ar.d
trained ut home, and ready for emergencies, we ro-
spectluliy a k tho President to call for s^ch a force of
volunteers for one year’s eervlec, of not less thap one
hundred thousand in the aggregate, tho quota of'ea-.-h
.Stato to bo raked utter it shall liavo filleu its quota W
tb'y r.-qui-Uion* already made, both for volunteers and

say the least of it, they could not, in my judg

Gen. D. R. .Jones has been granted a sixty
days leave of absence. It is whispered around-
that he ^rin not return. Nobody will cry if

thousand stand of’ arms, and carried off a number of
horses and Enfield rifles, besides allowing tis men to
take what they wanted*from theprivato stores of tie
village. He then proceeded to'Weston, where he also
destroyed all tho government supplies. * At Glenville
the same operations were gone through with; The

he took one hunditsd and fifty of our men prisoners,
cud captured and destroyed one hundred guns.WFrom
thcnco he visited Biploy and Eavenswood, where like
scc-ups were enacted, and where he captured* Major Br

five thousand dollars Government money, i'he rebels
