The following letter from General Early to a lady in Winchester will be read with interest, not only by the people of the Lower Valley, but by all who remember tin gallant scrvic< sos the army in the various campaigns in the Valley. The let ter does honor to the General’s head and heart: Toronto, C. W.. Sept., 27, 1860. Bear Madam —A letter from a gallant mid c.-t K-mud young frit rid who ibught in all the battle around Winchester, informs me that, some time in the ensuing month there will be a dedication of the cemetery which has been set apart under the aus pice- of the ladies of that town and its vicinity for the Conicdci-atc dead who fell in the lower Shenandoah Valley, lit the distant City of Mexico, I read the account of (he steps inaugurated by the ladies of Winchester for collecting the ramuins and making the graves of the brave men who lost their .lives in defence of their country in and around the latter place, and it is impossible for me to give expression to the emotions of gratitude and admira tion excited in rny bosom on reading that account. 1 knew that many of those whose remains were to be thus eared for, fell fight ing under my command —amoing them being a number of valued personal friends—and this sad and touching tribute to their memories effected me very deep ly. Since then 1 have anxiously desired an opportunity to convey to the noble wo men of Winchester and the lower Valley of the Shenandoah, the expressions of my heartfelt thanks, not only for their care for the remains of the dead, but for their de voted kindness and attention to the sick and wounded of my command, arid 1 now beg to do so through you. 1 fully appre ciate the self-sacrificing virtues disp.ayed by all my countrywomen during the war, but there are peculiar reasons why I should entertain sentiments of the warmest admi ration for and gratitude to the ladies of Winchester. It was the fortune of the troops under my command to relieve that place from the presence of tile enemy three times during the war, and I had abundant opportunities of ascertaining, as well the heroic fortitude with which the ladies en dured all the horrors of its occupation by our most cruel and vindictive foes, as the unwavering fidelity to our cause which they maintained under circumstances of unusual temptation to succumb. L was also fully apprised of the care taken by them to honor our dead and provide for our wounded, not only when wo were success ful. but also when reverses compelled us to leave them in the hands of the enemy. When many of my countrymen, in ig norance ol' (lie great disadvantages under which I labored at the time of iny reverses judged me harshly, it was from a lady of Winchester that 1 received a message, scut through the linos of the enemy, that, whatever others might do, the ladies of' that, place, who know the tremendous odds with which I had to contend, attached no blame to me. It is not to be wondered, therefore, that 1 feel so deeply towards them. God knows how well 1 love my native State and all her unfortunate sisters oft In South, and bow cheerfully my life was is hod and would now be yielded in their defense ; but, to all of us, there are some spots peculiarly sacred. With me, the first a. mil}? these is the place where 1 was born and where now repose the remains of mv mother ; the next is Winchester, the plains around which were watered by the mood of so many of my brave com rades. and where now so many true women weep over the graves of the fallen. It is sad, sad indeed to he an exile from my country, and still sadder to mourn the loss of the most just and sacred cause for which man ever fought; but there is some comfort in knowing that the struggle which developed much heroism on the part of our soldiers, and so many virtues in our women, has not been all in vain ; and wherever I may wander 1 will bear with me the proud consolation derived from the knowledge that my country women, who were so faithful and devoted during all the trials and vicissitudes of our dreadful con test for independence, now that it lias gone against us, remain true to the memories of the dead. Power and money may procure costly monuments and testimonials to com memorate the names of those who fought for the successful party,, but all the power and vvjhh otipjie wurid cannot Command >o rirtPTi'tribtifcJ as thuj mt'fud rierfof.(lufhorbit'd aTof-Hhe Confqderafe armies bv.the tearsif-tlpe Avoiueu of the South.

Gordon Granger, President Cleveland Convention. Geo. Peabody Este, Chairman Executive Committee. CilAs. G. Hai.pinDj Chair u Committee of Invitation. The British Aristocracy. Amid the general decay and degeneracy ' of the aristocracies 6f the old world, the j nobility of England have shown that their class, in that country at least, is as vigorous and hardy, physically, and even more strong- . ly developed, intellectually, than at any for mer period of their history. For this con- i dition of their physical and intellectual status various reasons have been assigned, j The Kev. Dr. .Stowe, who has given the subject much thought and patient invesii- | gation. arrives at the conclusion that the j aristocracy of England, are indebted for their present wealth, talents, influence and ■ physical efficiency to the following causes: j Fir-?. The right of primogeniture and the law of entail. No power like the pow er of laud. . . . Second. Constant accessions from the Commons, receiving from them every generation some of the most vigorous and energetic men, and giving every ambitious man the hope that he may some day be come a nobleman. Os about 450 or 500 • members'of the House ofPeersin 1853. ► in6te than half (260) had received their present titles since 1770 —especially by marrying strong, fine developed women \ from the untitled ranks. The preserva t: nos the purity of the blood has been the ruin of tli other European nobilities. Third. The wisdom of always yielding, ! and making a merit of it, where they must. Not more than one halfthe titled nobility of Great Britain have seats in the House of Lords. To be entitled to a seat by hereditary right one must be a Peer of : England, or a Peer of the United Kingdom ! of England and .Scotland, established in the reign of Queen Anna. All grades of titles, except Dukes, are in the House of j Commons by election. Seldom more than 50 Lords of the 450 or 500 are present at the legislative sessions, no stated number being necessary for a quorum; and in the law sessions often not more than two besides the law Lords. In U 53 (the time of his visit) there was one prince of the blood, or lloyal Duke, and the House was composed of Dukes, ■JU ; Marquises, 23 ; Earls, 135 ; Vis counts, Barons 21S ; representative Irish Peers, (chosen for life,) 28 ; repre sentative .Scotch Peers, (chosen from Par liament to Parliament,) 16, and Bishops, 30; English Bishops ranking a> Barons, Ll; the Bishop of most recent appointment and the Bishops of Sudor and Man not having a seat; Irish Bishops, who sit by rotation 4. The Sovereign can make any nobleman of any rank at any time, but cau never un make one. The noblemen have no connection with the places from which they receive their titles ; but the Bishops all have this con nection, except the Archbishop of Canter bury, who lias no special connection with Canterbury. Chinese Pirates. Ilong Kong papers give a full account of a recent capture and burning of twenty two pirale junks by a couple of British gunboats which sailed from Hong Kong, July 12, for Hainan Island, and discover ed the pirates in a small inlet. The place is described as a beautiful spot, covered with a luxuriant tropical vegetation, arid usually affording a nafe retreat. The junks each mounted about ten large guns, and showed light without hesitation. The gunboats advanced to within short range, and were occasionally struck, though most of the balls from the pirate junks passed over them. The cannonading went on for about two hours, wdien anew turn was given to the course of events by means of a landing par ty from the gunboats. About forty five men were quietly put on shore, and under cover of the jungle made their way round to the part of the creek where the pirate vessels were lying, without being observed until they came close to the junks. From those lying close along the shore the pi rates immediately fled, sculling in their sampans or swimming ashore to the oppo site side of'ilie creek, and gradually, as the landing party took possession of the junks along shore, and by means of boats began to board those which were anchored out in the creek, the pirates gave up, and even from the vessels lying furthest out, the crew slipped over the sides and disappear ed with or without the assistance of sam pans. A number of pirates were made prison ers, but being mostly wounded and in need of medical attention, were allowed to es cape. The junks were all burnt, notwith standing some of them contained valuable cargos. It is thought that the severe pun ishment thus inflicted, and the organiza tion of a court at Hong Kong for the sup pression of piracy, (the admiral of the station being chief justice) will have a most salutary effect. Flow of Gold to the United States. —The London Review has the following. “The influx of gold to the United States lias continued on a somewhat larger scale than had been looked for, although, in iiiet, amounting to no great sum. After j the enormous receipts from that country, a month or two back, it is not much to ; have to return some two hundred thousand or three hundred thousand pounds in two or three successive weeks. The most satis factory feature in the movement is the confidence that it shows in the permanence of peace in America, and that, as far as investors are concerned, the renewal of the civil war is considered in the highest de gree remote. As wo have already had oc casion to observe, this belief is not only felt by Englishmen lin'd Germans, but has latterly been shared by Frenchmen. The live-twenty bonds, which these shipments are made to pay for, are as eagerly, if not more eagerly, bought in Paris, as in Lon don and Frankfort. Not very many years ago scarcely any foreign securities were quoted on the French bourse, and it is sig nificant to notice how great an alteration has taken place in this respect. Except on our stock exchange, it may be doubted whether in any other capital of Europe, not even in Frankfort or Amsterdam, for eign investments are now so largely held as in Par is. Formerly, native capitalists would take nothing but the rentes; now they are ready to invest in Italian, Span ish, Mexican (unfortunately,) and many other similar securities. Except, however, in rare instances, United States bonds have been in little favor, and hence the signifi cance of the present demand.’’ hen. Gram’s Views ot Restoration. Conclusions of General Grant's report to the. president after a Tour of Inspection in tlie South. N * * * -if * 7V * 'flic following are the conclusions come to by me: 1 am satisfied that the masses of thinking mm of 'the South accept the present situa tion of a,fairs IN GOOD FAITH. The ques tions which have heretofore divided the sentiments of the people of the two sections —SLAVERY AND STATE RIGHTS, Or file right of a State to seeede from the Union they regard as haring been settled FOREVER by the highest tribunal — arms- —that man can resort to. I was pleased to learn from the leading men whom I met that they not only accepted the decision arrived at as final, but that now the smoke of battle has-clearcd away, and time has been given for reflection, that this decision has been a fortunate one for the whole country, they receiving the like benefits from it with those who opposed them in the field and in the cabinet. My observations led me to the conclu sion that the citizens of the Southern States are anxious to return to self-govern ment WITHIN THE UNION as soon as possi ble : that while reconstructing they want and require protection from the govern ment ; that they are in earnest in wishing to do what they think is required by the government not humiliating to them as eiCons. and that if such a course was pointed out they would pursue it in good faith. It is to be regretted that there can not be a gr, iter comminging at this time be tween the citizens of the two sections , and } arttcularly those entrusted with the law making power. 1. S. Grant. Lieutenant-General. 1 HE t TORM IN THE MIDDI.E STATES.— Avery heavy storm prevailed in Wash ington and Baltimore forty-eight hours, beginning on Wednesday last. " 1 rofessor Henry, ot the Smithsonian Institute, says the amount of rain which tell in L’4 hours, was somewhat more than five inches, being the greatest quantity that has fallen within a similar period for a long time. Considerable damage to property is reported along the line of the upper Potomac and the Chesapeake and < >hio Canal, as well as in Washington and Georgetown. Several dams on the Patapsco were de stroyed. and the darn at Elysville being swept away tore down the turnpike bridge at Ellicott's Hills. These wrecks, floating down and accumulating as they went, lodged against the heavy stone bridge on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad at Ilches tcr. and swept it away. It was considered the strongest bridge on the road. Several houses were swept away, and two families of nine persons in all were drowned. Wash ington and a great portion of the adjoining country was completely flooded. j he second volume of the French text i. Napoleon s ‘‘Life of Caesar” has just been published.

The river flowed with the light on its breast, And the waves were eddying by ; And the round, red sun went down in the West, When my love's loving lips to my lips were prest, . Under the evening sky ; ‘ Now weeping alone by the river I stray, For my love has left me tliis many a day ; Left me to droop and dio. As the river flowed then, the river flows still, In ripple, and foam and spray, On bv the church and round bv the hill. And under tbesluice by iheold burnt mill, And out to the fading day ; Hut I love it no more, for delight grows cold When the song is sung and the tale is told, And the heart is given away. Oil! river, run far ! Oh ! river, run fast! Oh ! weeds, float on to the sea ! For the sun has gone down on my beautiful past, And the hopes that like bread on the waters I east, Have drifted away like thee ! So the dream it is fled, and the day it ijr done, And my lips will murmer the name of one Who will never come back to me. The Amazon Basin. Professor Agassiz, who has recently re turned from an exploring expedi tion up the Amazon and its tributaries, is giving to the public, through a series of lectures, the results of his investigations. In a lecture delivered in Boston, under the auspices of the Young Mens’ Christian Association, he thus describes the famous basin through which the turgid waters of the Amazon slowly glide to the ocean. He said that the country was so different from any we are familiar with or heard of, ; so peculiar in its physical condition, that it deserved to be carefully examined as a specimen of tropical nature in Africa or Asia. In the first place the whole Amazon region is a vast plain. There are no lulls interrupting tliis immense expanse of woods and water. Only in tlie middle and lower course of the river is tliere a range ! of low hills. The Professor here explained, | by means of maps, the various localities, names of tributary rivers, and other facts connected with the subject designed to illustrate the immense space covered with water, owing to the litttle slope from the Andes and the wonderful net-work of rivers. The valley of the Amazon extends from West to East five degrees South of the line. The length of the valley is 2,000 j miles; width about 1,200 miles; the i source of the river 4,000 miles from | its mouth ; and the whole of this space is | a plain from the Andes to the Atlantic. | Over a length of 3,000 miles the slope is i only 210 feet. Therefore, the Amazon valley cannot bo compared to ordinary river J valleys. Within this vast expanse are | several rivers longer than any of our At ; lantic rivers, hardly known even by name. There are great lakes having communica tion with the Amazon, and, in fact, the interior is a vast fresh water ocean moving upon an inclined plain. There are spa ces of water so wide that the opposite shores cannot be seen. The Amazon swells in three different ways. In October snow begins to melt at the foot of the An des; the rise advances by degrees, but it is not until March that it is felt in the lower waters, and it is highestin June. It takes from October to June to swell, and that time for the water from the Andes to reach the ocean. That is not the princi ! pal source of the rise. A swelling from the southern part takes place in the rainy months, beginning in September. In Oc tober all the rivers on the right side begin to swell. The rainy season on the nor thern side begins in March, and it is not until May that the river begins to swell. The combined actiorj of all this is that the main stream increases in bulk from Octo ber to June, and falls again from June to October. The rise is never less than thir ty feet, and is frequently fifty. The re sult may be imagined in a country where the highest inequalities of surface are from fifty to sixty and seventy-five feet. There are times, it may be said, that the whole land is under water, and when the forest is actually navigable. You can sail through the forests in every direction, and the Indians have an expression signifying “boat path.” You may go on a large river or a small river, on a boat-path of considerable dimensions or so narrow that all the boats can do is to proceed amidst the dark vegetation. The whole surface not occupied by water is primitive forests, and it is almost impossible •to penetrate through the dense vegetation. 1 There is a variety in the vegetation which is wonder ful. The waters of the main stream are turbid, somewhat like a mixture of coffee with a large amount of milk, and they car ry along an immense amount of sediment which subsides the moment the water is still. The mouth of the Amazon where it enters the ocean is 160 miles wide, and it is all fresh water. The turbid waters can be seen long before the land is visible, anu it is maintained fifty miles beyond its mouth. All the great rivers which flow into the Amazon from the high mountains share in this color ; but, on the contrary all the rivers however large, which rise in woody plain are black, containing in solu j tion a large amount of vegetable sub stance. Notwithstanding the amount of biack water poured into the Amazon, it does not become black. There is no other water system in the world like this. You may compare the Mississippi, the St. Lawrence, or the large rivers of Europe and Asia with the Amazon, but all the rivers whicli receive a limited amount of supply from their headwaters or from the headwaters of their tributaries, do do not drain such an immense extent of land as does the Amazon —a basin 2,000 miles long ana about 1,200 miles wide. The climate of this region is most delightful. It is by no means hot, by no means un bearable as the deserts of Africa, or the regions of Asia. By reason of the trade winds and the character of the land, the Amazon running from west to east to the Atlantic, a cool breeze goes up river all the time, so that the average temperature is 84°. The maximum temperature of the whole region is 92’—the lowest 72°. The aver age depression of the thermometer during the rainy season is 73°, so that the changes of temperature are as much as 15°, the maximum not beingmore than 90°, nor the minimum below 75°, and a fresh breeze being felt every evening very sensibly. The circumstances of climate would, therefore, re ider it one of the most pleasant and de sirable tropical regions, but no country has a worse administration, owing to the gov ernment of the provinces and the mode of life of the inhabitants. Young men who have no experience in governing are gene rally sent as governors, and owing to their ambition and other reasons, they consider it a place from which they desire to get away as soon as possible, and they misrep resent the country. The Professor said that when he expressed a desire to enter that region, he was warned that he was running into a region of death, but there are no dangers, and hardly any discomforts to be met with. After referring to the su perior water communications with every part of the vadey, the speaker mentioned as another difficulty in regard to the re gion was that the people were indolent, with no ideas oi‘ improving the land. The Indians have been made almost slaves to the few white men. This country might be made a Paradise, so rich is it in natural productions and immense wealth to be obtained there. Twenty millions of men could live there with more of the Facilities which we enjoy by developing that which has hardly yet been brought to market. A better future for the country could uot be conceived than for some of our East lumber men to explore the forests, which are full of timber in such exquisite variety that we have no idea of such rich ness. At a provincial exhibition at Para, there was exhibited a collection of 117 dift'erent kind of costly tim ber gathered from a piece of laud half a mile square. And yet in the whole Amazon region, over an extent ot country two thousand miles in length and twelve hundred wide, there is not one saw-mill. Large trees are cut down and chop ped off with a hatchet in the form of a hoe to make a plank one inch in thinkness. There is a want of ski'll and sagacity in the population. The Amazon, is still a closed country, but is soon to be opened to the commerce of the world. One ot the gTeat features of the Amazon, which is very re markable. is that the immense river has no delta for which other great rivers are remarkable. Yet it carries an immense amount of mud—more than any other stream. This was owing, the Professor said, to a very singular combination of circumstances, which he had not quite unravelled; but one thing was certain—that the ocean en croaches upon the continent and at a fear ful rate. This encroachment has gone on for ages like the receding of Niagara Falls from Cake omaria towards Lake Erie, and three to four hundred miles of the out line has already disappeared from before the present mouth of the river. _ The fact of the encroachment is unmistakeable; whether owing to the softnesj of the material upon which it works or by the subsiding of the land in addition to the direct action of the sea, he was unable to say. The Professor treated at some length upon the geographical character of the river valley in connection with the theory of encroachment of the ocean upon the land, and concluded his address by expres sing his appreciation of the very valuable assistance he had received from Major Con tinho, a Brazilian engineer, who fo T twelve years has been exploring the valley of the Amazon and surveying some of its waters, so that the lecturer had only, as it were, to reach out and take up the information which had been gathered. Anew railroad is projected between Al bany and New York, intended to be laid on the west side of the Hudson. [communicated. ] Wort-hex's Store. Ga. Messrs. Editors : —Somi men, in order to make themselves popular , and to catch 1 repudiation votes, are calling for a State Convention to give relief to those in debt. I thought we had given a quietus to repu diation—but not so. It comes up now with the plea of relief. The best and surest way to get relief is for every able-bodied man to go to work at something; and, by ! industry, each and every family will be relieved. Debts can be paid very fast with the present high prices of farming products, and most men can pay one fourih their indebtedness this winter, even with one-third of a cotton crop; and, where they cannot, and have don 3 the best they could, they will not lie sued. Any man who sues in such cases ought to be punished in some way. A Convention would do no good, for it could not pay the debts without money, and would have no power to make any law impairing private contracts. The Stay Law was the best and wisest arAngemeut that could have been made, and I hope the Legislature, soon to convene, will continue it without any changes, and request the people to bo lenient and indulgent with each other, and compound liberally. Many debts should be reduced heavily. The people have lost their slaves, and much of other property, and every creditor should feel willing to give up a part of their claims; but these things should be by mutual consent of parties. This Belief Convention would not be of general benefit to the soldiers, as j they were generally poor men or in me dium circumstances, who, as a general I thing, liever went in debt more than they ! could pay in one or two years with rnoder : ate luck. It would 11 :t benefit the large | land owners; for t hose of them who are in debt have, since the surrender, generally 1 transferred or smuggled their property, so ! that no creditor will ever get anything out iof them. The old law allows a sufficient 1 exemption of property for any family to live comfortably on. Every man of com mon sense knows these things; then let us hear less of relief and distress that would follow, should the Legislature fail to repu diate or do something- else equally as un just. I have old claims contracted pre vious to the war, but I shall sue no man j this winter, where he has done his duty— ; whether lie pays the fourth of his indebt -1 edness or not—and I think that is the sen | timent of every man; but I want men to j know that there are laws in the land to | compel them to do their duty, when they act unfairly. I am suri rised to see so many men want to hold on to large bodies of land, and remain in debt too. Better give their creditors part of the land and rid themselves of debt, for there is nothing so depressing to a man’s spirits as to bo in debt. Small farms, with plenty of guano and good farming implements, arc much more profitable, with less risk and more satisfaction. Let the negro go, for he will not work on a farm at best. The more of them on a farm the less is made in proportion to expenses. The sooner we get clear of them, the better for us. Justice. The Conversion of Seven-Thirties. —Conversions of seven thirty notes, fall ing due August, 1867, into five-twenties, continue to be made at the Treasury De partment at the rate of something less than $4,000,000 per week. There arc now outstanding about $270,000,000 of this issue of seven-thirties. These notes, ow iny to the immense clerical labor involved in their examination, can be redeemed by the department at only about the average rate of $5,000,000 per week, if presented as rapidly a® they could be disposed of. Parties holding seven-thirty notes of the above issue, will, therefore, do well to for ward them to the Treasury for conversion into five-twenties as soon as possible, as hereafter, in the case of the presentation of large quantities near the period of the full maturity of the notes, mudli delay will ensue before the bonds in conversion can possibly be furnished by the Department. Increase of .population. —A valuable statistical table, exhibiting the rate of in crease in the population of the different States in the Union since the census ol 1860, is now in course of preparation at the Department of the Interior. The cen sus of 1865, has been received by the de partment from seven States, and the in crease of population, even during the existence of the war, in which the mortality was unusually large, is as fol lows : Minnesota, 40 per cent. ; Illinois, 26 per cent. ; Michigan, 7 5-10 per cent. ; llhode Island, 4 per cent. ; Massachusetts, 3 per cent. Taking the general average of this increase, 131 per cent, as a fair repre sentation of the ratio of increase in the other States, the Census Bureau estimates that the population of the United States and Territories has increased from 31,443,- 821, the number found by the census of 1860, A 35,500,000.

The daily payments are limited to that sum, and no person receives more than five scudi at one time. The circula tion of the Roman Bank is more than $4,- 000,000, which is very large among a popu lation of not much more than half a mil lion, with little commerce. So great is the pressure for payment that a crowd of one or two thousand are in the queve, which extends a great distance from the bank, and begins to form the evening before, such is the eagerness to get places. A few days ago the struggle wasso violent, and the interference of the police so rough, that a row ensued, when many were wounded, and about seventy-five marched off to prison. An Important Project.— The Mem phis (Tenn.) Appeal notes the return of Major Joseph Barbiere, of that city, from France, where he has been arranging for direct mercantile communication between Memphis and Europe That paper savs: “\V e are informed that he has been suc cessful in his project,, and that sonic time during the coming winter we may expect to see several ocean steamers, flying a Eu ropean flag, at our landing, and, what is better, full of foreign freight for our city and the surrounding country.” Fire in Moxticello. —We leirn that a fire occurred in Monticello, last Tuesday night about 12 o’clock, in the brick build ing occupied as stores by Messrs. J. M. & \y. P. Marvin and J. I). Turner & Cos., which was totally destroyed. Messrs. J. M. &W. P. Marvin were insured to the amount 0f520,000 and Messrs. Turner & Cos., SIO,OOO. In Montreal last week, a little girl fell over the wire railing that surrounds one of the basins in Niger Square, into water eight feet deep. She was saved, like Home, by some geese. A number of these warb lers that were kept there commenced gab bling about the accident, and attracted the gardener's attention to the spot. He ar rived just in time to save the child. New Bice. —The steamer Charles S. Hardee , Capt. Daniels, arrived yesterday front the plantation of Col. Waddell, on the Ogeechee, bringing five hundred bush els rough rice, of the new crop. About twelve thousand bushels more from the same plantation will be ready for market about the latter part of the present week. —Savannah Herald. The Atlantic cable has been looked upon as so hopelessly lost, that the underwriters had paid the full amount insured. The Great Eastern will now be entitled to a large amount of salvage money, and so it may be hoped that the long run of ill luck which that vessel has had to endure has come to an end, and that her shareholders will at last get rich by her. Cotton Tax Unconstitutional. —Bev erdy Johnson, of Maryland, in reply to ap inquiry from Hon. Charles J. Scott, of Wilcox county, Alabama, gives it as his opinion that the tax of three cents, imposed by the act of Congress is unconstitutional, and he believes the Court wilt so decide. The Wilcox Times says the planters of that county are concerting measures to have the question tested in the Supreme Court. Anew magazine, the name of which is not stated, is announced to appear shortly. It is to be edited in Boston, rumor says by Mrs. Julia Ward Howe and Mr. J. R.' Gil more. One ot its features, perhaps the chief one, is that ail its articles are to be anonymous, which will serve to introduce young writers to the public, and to stimu late curiosity concerning them. If we would have powerful minds, we must think; if we would hare faithful I hearts we must love ; if we would have mucles, we must labor ; and these three thought, love, and labor—include all that j is valuable in life. THE CONTEST I* NEW TORS. The Empire State Can be Carried for Ilotfmau and Pruyu ! Now that speculation concerning the Oc tober election is passed, we have but to turn our attention to the struggle in our own State. The gains on the popular vote in Pennsylvania and Indiana afford ground for the Greatest encouragement. If headway could be made against the Radicals in those States, it is certain that a determined effort in New York will re sult in their complete rout and overthrow. That a great victory- is within our grasp there is not a shadow of a doubt. The current of public opinion is against the Dis union Radicals. The Democratic National Union men of these States have shown us what can be done. The progress made in Pennsylvania during the past three weeks, was remarka ble. The work accomplished duriug the closing days of the struggle, had a visible effect everywhere, and if equal energy had been displayed throughout the canvass, the gains would have been sufficient to have given us the State. This should nerve every lover of Consti tutional Government to the fullest perform ance of his dutv in this crisis. It proves to us that labor for such a cause will pro duce the most glorious results. We have but to make the necessary sacrifices, and a victory will be achieved that will roll back the tide of Disunion Radicalism, and save the Republic. The Denocratie National Union party has but to rally as one man in defence of the Union and' Constitution, and the Em l pire State will record a verdict for its principles and its candidates. Attend to : the Registry ! (Make out complete Poll | lists in every School District! Bo sure | that every friend of the Union is at the polls on the day of election ! Make this 1 work complete throughout the State, and the victory will be secured ! While we have popular candidates, and •are thoroughly united, the reverse is the case with our opponents. Their ticket is confessedly weak, and they have numerous causes for dissensions and divisions in their ranks. Delegates seceded from several of their Congressional Conventions ; two can. didates are running in the Monroe Dis trict ; they have two tickets in the field in Schuyler county, while in New York they have two Committees, and the leaders are involved in perpetual disputes. We recent, go forward in earnest, until organization is thorough and complete in every School District. See to it that every Democrat and Con servative voter is registered ! Complete the Poll Lists at the earli tst possible moment ! And be ready on election day .to have every opponent of the Disunion Radical Party at the polls ! These things accomplished, -and victory will surely crown our efforts! — Albany Ar | Stus. Literary and Personal. Dickens has another novel on the stocks.

Mr. Septimus Tennyson, a brother of the Laureate, died on the 7th of Septem ber at Cheltenham. Like other members of his family, he wrote poetry or verse. “We know,” says the Reader, “he had written much, but, with the exception of two or three sonnets contributed by him to the clever ‘revived’ Literary Gazette , which perished after eight or nine num bers, and two or three pieces in amateur publications, we are not acquainted with anything he has printed. He was a gentle, trusting, lovable man, and all who knew his great worth will lament his loss.” Constitutional Alliance. —The fol lowing is from the Richmond Examiner of a late date: An alliance or compact has been formed by large numbers of political parties in New York, under the above name—the term constitutional implying devotion and obedience to the Constitution of the United States without alteration or amendment; the word alliance meaning a Union or league between political parties who may unite under the restoration policy of Presi dent Johnson. The constitution of the “Alliance” is read to each applicant after taking the following oath, from which the general meaning of the organization may be inferred—the oath must be taken by members over two crossed swords: “ I solemnly swear in the presence of a just God, to preserve, uphold, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States, the constitutional and rightful ex ponents of the law. I also solemnly swear that I will, when called upon by the lawful Arcs of the Octagons, respond to and obey the commands of the Lines of the Triangles, and will peril life, suffer imprisonment, loss of property, and every discomfort,, to preserve liberty and justice, and to uphold and defend the Con stitution of the United States, the Presi dent of the United States, and the consti tutional and rightful exponents of the law. Although scarcely a week has elapsed since the above plan of organization was perfected, yet already three organizations are in existence in New York. Letters have been addressed to conspicuous poli ticians in various parts of New York and other States, detailing the proposed plan of organization, and this correspondence re sulted in the formation of two “Alliances,” one in Iroy and the other in Buffalo, and from the enthusiasm which the movement has been hailed, we infer that it is very likely soon to extend throughout the United States. New York, Oct. 4 —A Herald's <Jrleaus special says: A huge swindle of the government to the amount of about half a million of dollars has been discovered by a United States detective. Ih_e party implicated is J. Lowenthal, of 2U7 Pennsylvania avenue, Washington, who is a claim agent there, and who left here yesterday to avoid arrest. It ap pears, as claim agent in Washington, he was in the habit of getting from C.Dibbs, -Y’tary Public of this city, blank sworn affidavits to certain amounts of back pay and bounty. Lowenthal filled them up by forging the names of discharged soldiers, and by endorsing them, got checks for the amount from paymaster A. D. Robinson arid others, of Washington. One of the detectives was present and saw him forge several of these documents, and a warrant was issued yesterday by Judge Augustine, out Lowenthal had left for Washington, earning with him about twenty checks of from one hundred to three hundred dollars, it is asserted that a large number of pay masters and citizens are partners of Towenthal in the swindle, which amounts to about half a million dollars. Circuit Court at Abbeville. S. C.— peaking of the Fall Circuits in that State, : * i Greenville (S. C.) Enterprise says : At Abbeville, last week, several State rases were tried. A youth, who hails from Georgia, was tried for horse stealing and acquitted, after a very interesting arid ex citing trial. He was ably defended bv Gen. McGowan and W. P. Price, Esq. and prosecuted by Solicitor Reed with his wonted zeal and ability. The prisoner was put on the stand by his counsel to testify m his own behalf under the new law, and underwent a most searching cross-examina tion by the Solicitor. We understand that the manner in which he stood the ordeal contributed to establish his innocence. At Anderson, this week, several cases for horse stealing and some for murder are before the Court for trial. Judge Munroe presides on this Circuit. Negroes were sworn before the Grand Jury for the first time at Anderson, and of course will testify on the trial. A negro is before the Court for murder. He has made a full confession, it is pid, and the probability is he will be convicted and sentenced accordingly. ’ ’ Why was Napoleon's army like a rail way train ?
