The Raid Into Pennsylvania—YVliat tho Yaultees May ol' It. The Philadelphia Inquirer, after detailing the recent movecicats of Stuart In Pennsylvania, indulges in the following reflections: The natural Inquiry, what is the object of the h. vision, is not difficult to answer. Bince tho .Treat battle ot Autietani, McClellan has been *■ nally but slowly pushing his army forward into VtTgimi*. u, > he moved his army sud denly, a oil in a mass, fcy any |.,ui,r si liirpi r’s Ferry or VViUtam-pori for ex *up?e—'he nbei rny would have recrossed into Maryland at some Otffer point, above or he low, slid thus f.rcid McCielUn to return and deiend Washing, n :ui tliiiiraoro. He could not so above the rtbi.l line to advance, for than the enemy would be brtwt . c hiur and the great Piiu's of. delcnsi’—.W.tsh'nsfton, Baltimora, P v ladelphift anl Sew York. Ho has, there fore, tried to keep them in doubt as to his movements, bv slowly moving about on either side of the Pot. me at Harper’s Ferry ami Williamsport, and they, understanding his game, have onlff inked him by this raid into the Cumberland Valley,.by the circuitous route of H uncock. Even had ihe Pennsylvania militia remained at Hagerstown and Grcencastle, they could not have prevented this incursion, tor, as will be gee a by reference to the map, the enemy have tamed both points • Hancock, Kereersbnrg asd St. Thomas, and thus our militia would hive had their communications cut off, and been obliged to advance and fight the rebels at ■to insure th, ir own safety. In any aspect lc which we may view this movement, there tora, it is a very serious one, and we must all j be prepared to meet it promptly, and with the j spirit of men whose homes are in danger. Tne Cumberland Valley is one of the most 1 fertile an-', best cuirivaled !n the Union; popu- j ir.riving, cud wealthy, it offers to the enemy a tempting oppoftuniy for plunder. | TANARUS! o cr.euiy could easily levy a forced loan on t Ci.arabera.bnrg, k 1 sweep fl besides, horses, i c U, fots.ee and provisions, and if these be I tht-lr objects they will be off again back to Vir- 1 r r.ia, before we tan muster forces enough to i r. pel them. Ia like manner they could make ii t arsfons into ether Valley s along our South t vi; border, from time to tiu-e, and compel us j to keep a large force to defend the State. This proceeds, however, upon the assump tion that the army of the Potomac would re t rain idle, which it cannot do with safety to it ir. The security of the North is essential to ihu of the army of the Potomac. It will be necessary, therefore, for General McClellan to rt ume active operations at once, in some new direction, in order to counteract the enemy’s fov VEUKttts and threaten their army. The Richmond E nquirer says J okn MiichUH, the Irish patriot so well known to the people of the Confederate States, arrived on Thursday in Richmond, direct from Paris, where he has \ ired for the last three or four yean A Befogee from SaTaunah. A Mr. Bpencer, a New Yorker, but for aoaia years past a workman iu the jewelry store of Wilmot & Cos. (now Richmond) in this city, was sent clow a the river a few weeks ago under a flag of tmee, under representations that he had children at the North who were suffering in his absence. The gentleman has arrived in New York, and like bis predecessors,has told his story of men and affairs in the South. It ap pears in the New York Times, as follows: The feeling of the citizens of Savannah with reference to the rebellion, Mr. Spencer repre sents a being nearly unanimous in favor of continuing the eourse they have begun, and of never lielding until they have gained their in dependence. Many of them openly declare that tkev would prefer becoming the subjects of a foreign power to a reunion with the National government. Not a few openly avowed that they had meditated the movement for twenty Tears past, and that in the election ot Lincoln they saw their opportunity. The Northern men, of whom there are a great many in Savannah, rs well as all the Southern cities, are mostly Union men at heart, but they are obliged to disavow, or at the best to conceal, their senti ments. There is, however, nothing like the reign of terror visiting them at present there was at the beginning of the rebellion. The “Rattlesnake Club” and “Vigilance Commit tee ” at whose instigations so many outrages were committed on Union men and strangers at. the commencement of the movement, have pretty much died out. The better class o' citi zens were compelled to discountenance mem in self-preservation, and to save their whole social fabric from tumbling into anarchy, and their opposition, together with the fact that the leading desperadoes, with most of their rank and file, have found their way into the army, has at length relieved the city from much of the terrorism that formerly existed. Considerable f.-eedom of expression is now allowed, provided it is judiciously indulged in, and with reference to the demerits of the neighboring Stale of South Carolina, the utmost latitude is permit ted and even approved. Mr. Spencer says he has often openly expressed the hope that the war would not end until Charleston was utterly extinguished and blotted off the map, and his sentiments always met with an approving echo. They ac ase Charleston of having got them m'o the scrape, and charge cowardice upon the fe ,;:lk Carolina troops in battl,e. At the time of the capture of Port Royal, Mr. Spenc-. r says Savannah could have been taken with the utmost ease. It was the universal ex pectation that it would be taken, and the fail ure of the government to follow un the victory at Port Royal greatly disheartened the Union men in Savannah. If the city ever should be captured, he says the government wiil find the same rtate of things existing as at New Or leans ; there will be no manifestations of Union feeling until it is settled beyond a doubt that the government is able to maintain Us position. With reference to the emancipation proclama- tion of the President, Mr. Spencer is of opinion that it will prove to be impolitic. The news of the proclamation had not reached Savannah when he left, but it had been long anticipated; and the repeated averments in the Southern newspapers that the Federal government in tended to adopt such a measure has already, as he thinks, added 10,000 soldiers to the Confed erate army. The Union men of the South, who have heretrf .;e argued that the war on the pait of the United States was for the mainten anee of the government and the supremacy of the Constitution and laws, will now be met with the remark : “There, I told you this was a war for the niggers,” and the result would be that every man would be forced to take sides with the South. This advantage to the Union cause he thinks will not be connterbalanced, as many who favor the measure anticipate, by any cff.'rt on the part of the negroes themselves calculated to strengthen the arm of the nation al government or weaken that of its enemy’s. He deems the idea absurd, that the mass of plantation negroes in the interior will, in con sequence of this measure, be induced to strike a blow for their own freedom, or in fact that they will ever hear of the proclamation. BESTItUCTION OF SALT WORKS —A DREEZE CHEA TED AT SAVANNAH. A let! or from Port Royal says that a party of Federal troops went to Bluffton, Ga., on the ,‘SOik and destroyed the salt works there. The letter adds: The next day the Colonel, with a company of regiment, under Capt. Lent, and of the of Rhode Hand Artillery, under Capt. Gould, with the same boats, ascended the Savannah to with in two miles of Fort Jackson, and broke up a working party who were sinking stone obstruc tions in the channel. The six steamboats which had allowed their fires to go down came in for a fire of another sort, hot and peppery, and, as quickly as possible, made for shelter beneath the guns cf Fort Jackson. Abatteiy at Cos ten’s Bluff opened upon Col. Barton’s parly, but the replying fire silenced it after six shots from the rebels of too short a range for damage. Our boats then recoiled before the excitement they had themselves caused, so gn at that the housetops of Savannah were distinctly seen, sprinkled with spectators, rousing the floating battery, which descended and which is now an chored so much lower down, that it is no longer safe for another adventure with such small boats. Etcape of Bridge Burners. FRY AND A NUMBER OF HIS TOBY CONFRERES AT LARGE From tho Atlanta (Ga.) Southern Confederacy, Oct. IS. I,si6i afternoon, nearly at dark, the ci'y was thrown into a high state oi excitement by sev eral squads of tho Provost Guards running at double quick through our streets. Soon it passed from mouth to mouth that the East Tennessee Tory bridgs burners had escaped from j Til and were at large. We made inquiry ol several, but could learn nothing definite. We visited the jail to learn the facts in the case, but the accounts fiqrn the guard there—with one of whom we conversed—were contradicto ry olid unsatisfactory ; and but little was known at (Jo! Lee’s headquarters, save the fact oi the escape of the prisoners. It will be recollect- and that these men were brought to this city last spring and put in jail. They have been here ever since. A guard has been kept around the j til, but they have so long stood and lain around there night and day that they had ceased to be on the alert—on guard— ready for any attempt at escape. It was at an opportune moment of this kind, when hot few were o:> guard, and those few not expecting or looking out for an attempt to escape, near night, when the jiilor weut in to give the pri* - oners food and water, that Fry, the notorious and daring leader of the tory band in the bridge burning enterprise, seized upon the jailor anl choked him down, while others snitched his keys and hastily unlocked every room. Some fourteen or fifteen of them rushed out at the door and carno very unexpectedly upon the single sentinel who happened to be in treat, knocked him down and took hi* cun from him, aud before the guards on the other side of the building were aware of wbat was going on, or could come round to the front, the most of them were out at the front gate. One c two who endeavored to climb the high fence were stopped by having the sentinels’ guns leveled at. theta, and perhaps two others fell from the fence and were so badly hurt as to be unable to get away. All who got through the gate— some feu or eleven—made their escape, and at this writing are at large. Quito a number of mounted men are scouring thecouutry in every direction, and we have no doubt they will be recaptured before another night. Final escape we should consider impossible. From Nasuvili.b — ln Nasnvuie there arc, all toFfi, 16 Federal regiments, averaging some 40<h muu i-..- tbo regiment. Gen. Negtcy is si 11 in command. Mach discontent prevails among the Yankee soldiers, because of the seal city of provisions. They havtf recently received but one r.ti .a of meat per week, and for some lime ili.-v lvc received no pay. Many of them re ceive orders ior clothiu:, coots, etc., up n the Cumimtsary department, which, as soon a- they receive, they sell for any thing thay can get tor them Discipline, too. is lax with the soldiers; tht v are tolerated in many excesses while citi zen® are treated with groat severity. Since provisions havo grown scarce in Nashville, the houses of private citizens are daily enured and robbed ol whatever can be found to eat, no matter how small the quantity. Andy Johnson is still in Nashville, but Is much discouraged and chagrined at his situa tion. The prevailing opinion there was that the city would have to be surrendered up to the Confederates. Daily the suffering for pr ovi sions becomes greater; among the ciiiz-cs it has become already very great. Unless it is evacuated soon, or relieved in some way, the citizens must suffer from outrages on the part of the soldiers. But a few days ago the hoose of one of the ladies of that city was set on fire i by the soldiers, and burt to>the ground, snd a <*eniieman who attempted to protect her ares shot and killed! The lady was then taken to jail, but was released in a day or two, the Yan kees having become satisfied with murdering the gentleman and destroying her property. The city is in a most deplorable condition. What with the license given to the brutal sol diery there, and want staring the citizens in the face., the condition ol the latter will soon be come terribfo. Rebellion In Indiana. Cincinnati, Oat. 8 — The Indianapolis cor- j respondent ot the Commercial says the copper- j heads of Hartford, Blackford county, collected on Monday and forcibly resisted the draft.

XHNtiilaii.;.. ~t IVUUki y, ANOTHER EDICT FROM GOVERN ii UnoWU. j Executive Headquarter \ 1 j Marietta, Ga , Get- -her 18, 1863. i To the Officers of the iTUtia of Georgia : Ou the iltb ny ot Sh> ! itr'cr hu-t, peroon calling himself Captain S G Cabell, called on me, in'company with L'eut, Ere, and pre-- -sited to me a contrac-. • Meu he had mad- wi,., the Medical Purveyor oi th-> Cortf- t States, at Richmond, for one thousand ban .. ol whit-key, stating that he had two other eon'/acts of one thousand barrels each. He represented our hospitals. &e.,’ as being m a condition that re quired a supply ol whin key at vi early day for the use of the sick. He also brought • letter from the Chit! Medical Purveyor of the Con federate S ates, asking that uece-sary facilities be accorded to him. Upon examination oi this letter, 1 indorsed upon it that I offered no obstructions :o the manafaetariug in Georgia, of sack supply of whiskey as the proper officers of the Confede rate Government may ordeufor the use of the arms of the Confederate States, and that Capt. Cabell would not be disturbed bvthe mditia officers of this State, under my Proclamation, so long as be did not transcend Una limits of his contract with the Confederate Government, but that I requested him to take as little of the corn necessary to make the whiskey as possible lrom Geo- gia. After I handed back to him the letter of the Purveyor General,. with tay endorsement upon it, he raemioned that he must employ other distillers to assist.hitHi or he could not Si! his contract ir, time, and that he was under a heavy bond for the-delivcry of the whiskey within the time specified by the contract. I immediately replied, that I would not permit him to sub let or put the distilleries of the State generally in to operation, as they would defeat the very ob ject of my proclamation, and that it would be impossible to limit them to the supply neces sary to fill his contract, If they were permitted to run; that he could locate his distillery at any one point in the State, and proceed to fill bis contract, but that he could not be. permitted to go beyond his contract. He then began to insist ou having the privi lege to make contracts with cfistiUers at diSer pdints tt> make the whiskey for him, when I re plied it was not worth while to multiply worss about it, as I would cot permit, and that I would not only seizs the stills employed, but if he attempted it, I would revoke the privilege given him under this contract. I was so posi tive and emphatic upon this point, having re peated the expression more than once, that there was no room for misunderstanding. I am now informed that this individual, Ca bell, is sending copies of the letter of the Pur veyor, and my indorsement upon it, to distiUers in different parts ot the State, and making con tracts with as many as possible to make whiskey 7 for him. exhibiting the correspondence as evi dence of my consent that he employ them to distil whiskey under his contract, while he con ceals trom them my express verbal declaration that I would not permit it, and that ho must limit Ms own operations under ;,is contract to one siDgle locality I only stated in the written indorsemenfthat I would not obstruct th° sup ply ordered by the proper officers of the Con federate government, and that he (not persons to whom he might sub let,) would not b ; dis turbed so long as he did not transcend the lim its of his contract. He is, himself, only a con tractor with the Confederate government, and is not the constructing agent of the govern ment. . His contract, with the General Medical Pur veyor, binds the government to pny him two dollars and fifty cents per gallon; and lam in formed he is employing persons to make and deliver whiskey to him at one dollar an. > fifty cents per gallon. Throe thousand barrels, of forty gallons each, which, I suppose, is about the usual barrel, would be one hundred aud twenty thousand gallons. Upon this he pro do es to make or.e dollar on each gallon, or #l2O 000. He is, therefore, a speculator, and not a proper officer of the Confederate govern ment, authorized to make contracts for it. I therefore declare the contracts made by him with distillers iu this Slate to be unauthorised by me, and I hereby charge, order and direct yon, and each of you, to enforce the orders in my proclamation strictly against all persons, who, after the publication of this order giving notice of the imposition aHems ted to be prac tised upon (hem by this individual, Cabell, shall distill a sing!; gallon of whiskey within this State. And on account of the bad faith attempt ed to be practised by said Cabell, I hereby re voke all privilege given to said Cabell to distill for himself under his contract in this State, and direct the seizure of any stiff or stiffs whi h- he may put in operation. I also direct the seizure of all stills which may be found running in any part ol the State un der aßy pretended Government contract, unless the persons so distilling ha3 a contract direct from the proper officer of the Government at Richmond, for the manufacture of a specific quantity, with a certificate of such officer, that it is absolutely necessary for the hospitals or other indispenfaUe put poses of the army. I am unwiiling to thr6w any unnecessary ob structions in the way of the heads of D . p?. t ments of the Cos federate Government, in pro curing a neeessary tuppfy of anything, even whiskey, if actually necessary for our gallant troops, but since I have relaxed the rule in their favor. I find every possible means resorted to, hy distillers and speculators to abuse the privi lege for tbe promotion of their own individual interest. The. grain crop iu this Stat jis not so abundant as was expected, aud if distillers arc permitted to destroy it without limit, corn will be worth a price next summer which will deprive many a soldier’s family and poor per sons of a plentiful supply of bread When the General Assembly convenes, this wiil be a ques tion for them to control, and I respectfully re quest that the p ople express in advance their wishes to their representatives.

As an artillery officer, Colonel Lamar had few rivals, or equals, and no superiors among volunteers now iu our service. Zealously and entl uslastically devoted to this arm of service and to the cause of tho Confederacy, he had the enviable faculty of b’ getting equal ardor and enthusiasm in his command.

We are indebted to the kindness of a friend for a copy ol the Philadelphia “Inquirer” ol Tuesday, Oct, 14:,h, from which wo make the following selections.-—[Richmond Enquirer. [Special Correspondence of the •‘inquirer.”] Ohambersburg, Oct. 13.—There has been a “hi'dx old time” in town during the past three .lays, caused by the sudden appearance of the Rebels, but the excitement has now somewhat subsided,and business is beginning to assume its wonted sway. On Friday and Saturday all trade and travel was suspended, but to day the length ened countenances of our people present a more cheerful appearance. The visit _of the ebels was short aud sweet, but they staid quite long enough ; and all but a tow of their sympa thizers, (aud there arc many here) were delight- ed when they departed. They came in rags and filth, but went away like gentlemen—that, is, il good, new clothing will entitle a man to be called a gentleman—for the stores anti two car loads of new clothing were seized and dis tributed among the party, and their appearance wes as bright as a “new pin;” in fact, their appearance was highly creditable to Philadel phia tailors and seamstresses, who made up the uniforms lor “the boys” in .McClellan’s army. You have already received some of the de tails of the losses here. The damage by the conflagration will exceed two hundred thou sand dollars, ol which amount the Cumberland Valley Railroad Company suffer to the ex ent ef §SO 000 Mr. O N. Lull, the Superintendent of the road, had all ol his furniture destroyed, upon which there was no insurance. Theuar, engine, wood and water houses of the company were totally destroyed, and, for a space of three bun dred square yards, there is nothing left but the blackened and smouldering remains. The track was'uninjured, and the trains to-day are run ning as usual. The ware homes cf Messrs iVuudet finch aud Neid coma tied a large amount cf ammunition and stores, among the former seven hundred thousand cartridges, seven hundred muskets, and aquas ity ot shells, loose powder, &c., &c. When the building blew up there was no one near ; but those in the other sections of the town made some of the tallest t. .veiling that has ever been seen in this section of the coun try, or any vhere else. Fortunately no one was irjared. These buildings were located ou Se cond street, near the Falling Spring Greek, and were leveled with the ground. One of the shells was blown into Mr. Fredetick Grove’s stable, and it was totally consumed. One car was loaded with revolvers, which the Rebels carried off with them. Two long trains of cars, loaded with goods Consigned to private individuals, were not disturbed. General Hampton appeared to be. in com mand aud appeared anxious that the citizens should -ttot suffer. Soon after ha entered the place he rode up to a house on the main street and told the oeeupants ol the bouse to shoot down any private that-attempted to eme. he houses, unless accompanied by an officer, and he would protect them in the course. One ol the offic-'.-.exhibited along list oi the names of the j so ;-;;mnt Unionists of this pi ce, and said he'was tuily posted in regard to the feel ing of the people ot this section. The rebels were accompanied by one resident of this place and several lrom Hagerstown, who acted as spies and pilots. Among the latter was a man who, it is alleged, was a member oi the last Legislature, but we can hardly credit it. These gentlemen departed with the company in which they came. If they had remained here their necks would have Men encircled with a hempen cravat. There were ab ui eight hundred horses ta ken from the stables here and the farmers in the vicinity, and a number ot skinny, attenu ated eqnines left in their places The scouts beyond Ohambersburg have noth ing to report Cash town is said to have been visited this morning by sixty rebels, v*ho are said to have spent the preceding night at Tan Uittsbarg. Tho rebel leaders, there is reason to believe, expecting to defeat McClellan in the next bat tle, sent Stuart on his late reeounoissanca in force, for the purpose of obtaining a correct knowledge oi the topography of Pemuylvania, and bo thus enabled to march a lirge army speedily on Harrisburg, first sending two par ties ol cavalry to cut railroad communication. One to out that of the Pennsylvania Railroad at Mount Union, the other that of the Baltimore and Ohio, below Frederick. Stuart, having accomplished this reconnois sance, withdrew into Virginia. It is believed in official circles that there may be small par ties ot smugglers, who were unable to rejoin the main body, yet prowling among the moun tains. On Saturday morning the rebels destroyed al! the telegraph instruments, batteries and a num ber of miles of wire at Ohambersburg; but. notwithstanding this, through the energy of the P, esident of .tho A’l.sntic and Ohio Telegraph Company, Col. John H. Berryvilie, ail repairs were made, and the Chambersbarg office re opened, snd communication with Gen. Mc- Clellan's headquarters established Saturday evening.
