It is only necessary to read the two platforms to see what a Union man's" doty is with reference to tbe candidates who stand respectively on them. W* are informed that Col. Hardin Duval, who was wounded on the 19th in tbe Val ley, reached his home yesterday at-Wells burg. We are further informed that both Col. Duval and Col. Thoburn have been made Brigadier Uenerals. We shall re joice to know that this last report is a fact. Promotion has been nobly earned by these two gallant men and has been too long delayed. Col. Duval we are told is wounded in tbe tbigh, but not dangerously as was first reported. Tbe panic still continues in New York a nd is reported also as having broken out in Philadelphia. Gold is several per cent lower than in our quotations yesterday morning, standing now under 200. Tbe whole market is in strong sympathy with the downward turn. Where a permanent halt will be called it is impossible to say. Gold olosed stronger than its opening rate and it may be that it will maintain itself somewhere near 200. There has been a general opinion, whether well or ill founded, that gold, in case of a great vio tory, such as Sheridan has given ue, would sink to 200 and remain about there until a decisive battle should be fought between Lee and Grant, or between Hood and Sher man. The market is in such a condition now, however, that all such speculations are the sheerest conjectures, not worth Berious consideration. The true discrepancy between a redun dant paper ourrency and gold is some* thing that the money writers talk very larnedly about, but no body can under stand litem. Publio confidence, we opine, is the true measure of such discrepancy, and if Grant annihilates Lee's army, the span between gold and greenbacks will b? a very short one. We think it ftkely that tbe downward turn ol the market has pretty well spent its violence and that, until some more such achievements as those of Sheridan shall take place, there will be no further decline. Still it is impossible to tell. Tbe whole market is in a perfect fever, evidently, and when once every expanded concern under takes to save itself and force its extrication at tbe expense of tbe market, there is no conjecturing what will happen. 7be dan ger is that many good men may be sacri ficed by tbe movements of reckless specu ators. The Paula iii New York on Saturday. N?w Yobi, Sept. 25. The panic in gold eclipsed in its fury? for we can call it by no milder term?tbe panic in stocks, and from the opening until the elose of business, which was not until five P. M., tbe dark and ill-ventilated room in which the market iB held was densely crowded with an excited multitude, in the utmost state of physical agitation, shouting wildly at each other until the building re sounded with their little less than frantit cries, which blended in laud confusion, while, with uplifted arms and flashing eyes, they?the bulls and bears of William street?fought the battle of gold and strug gled hard for supremacy. Bedlam lei loose would bave been, in the language of the olassics, "unable to hold a oandle" to the scene wbicb attended the fall of gold to 200 to day. And after the crowd were driven from tbe room by the gong, "whose dreadful roar" deafened even the shouting of the combatants, the game of buying and selling was continued with renewed vigor, as long as daylight permitted, in the open street. The first quotation of the morning was 212; from which it declined almost steadily to 201J, wbicb was tbe selling price at twenty minutes to one. Immediately after this, and in the midst of the greatest confusion and excitement, a sale was made on short option at 200. At five minutes past three it was 206$; at half past three it bad receded to 204J, and at forty minutes patt four it stood at 202* to 203. Tbe number of anxious visitors to tbe gold room and its vicinity was far in excess of tbe average, and showed the anxiety of tbe community outside of Wall Street operations to learn bow gold was going; for upou it more or less hung tbe fortunes of many or them, all large hold ers of goods purchased at the late high prices being, of oourse, heavy losers by tbe fall. It is this derangement of values wbicb is unsettling the public mind, and influencing tbe decline of stocks, among other things. A very rapid appreciation of tbe value of paper money, after a heavy depreciation, as in our case just now, is liable to create a feeling of something like panic among a large portion of the mer cantile'community interested for the time being in gold being at a high premium, and this in its effects would be likely to aggravate consequences, and produce'a shock instead of a gradual adjustment of prices in relation to tbe valne of tbe cur rency. A panic may be originated at the best of times, if persons enough can be found to sacrifice their property by throw it on the market at any price. This would o course be absurd withont absolute ne cessity or good reason for it; but prices lire often causeless and more owing to tbe fears ol men than anything more substan tial. There are merchants in tbls city now who stand in fear and trembling of ? be consequences to themselves of this fall in .gold, and it would require very little ag, gravation of their apparent Josses to force them to make sacrifices wbicb would have ihe effect of depressing tbe market 11 Of at urailj Md icttreaae tbe danger of a com mercial panic. The timid are therefore to ' be warned, for their own Bakes, not to give way to their fears by any unnecessary sac rifices, bat await the subsistence of the present excitement with that calm watch fulness which every man in business must stand in need of. tf they act 0 "'V*? the people will reap the benefit, and they will be the only losers; for the affairs of the country are entirely too buoyant to be prejudicially affected by any number of failures that can possibly take place, and the utter collapse ot the speculative com binations which have been contributing to the recent inflation would be a public ad vantage. BEBEL ACCOUNTS. The Defeat of Early in the Valley?The Re treat to Fit her'e UiU?The lotiee in Gene ral*\ Men and War MaUrial Severe?Oen eral Lec'i Vetpatch Jfc. Prom the Richmond Koquirar, Sept. 24. There were many reports current yester day representing that Early had sustained a severe defeat in the valley. All that reach us concur in the statement that a very heavy battle was delivered on Mon day last a few wiles below Winchester and that our forces, after battling nearly all day retired during the night to Newtown, aud'afierwards to Fisher's Hill, a few miUB southwest of Winchester. In-the fight we lost Generals Bodes and Godwin, l"1'6!1 and General Fit* Lee slightly wounded in the thigh. The enemy made the attack in a force muoh larger than our own, and suf fered very heavily. The followiog has been rece.ved trom General Lee:? ... . Hbadquartbbs Army ov Northsrh VA.| 1 Sept. 29, 1864. / To Jat. A. Seddon: General Early reports that on the morn ing of the 19th the enemy advanoed on Winchester, near which place he met his attack, which was resisted from early in the day till near night, when he was com pelled to retire. Alter night he fell back to Newtown, and this morning to Fisher s Hill. Our loss reported to be severe. Major General Rodes and Brigadier General Godwin were killed nobly doing their duty. Three pieceB of artillery, of King s bat talion, were lost. The trains and supplies were brought off safely. K- B The Defeat of Early-Obltwary Ne tlcee or the Fallen ?eneral?-No Battle Will be Klekeii UnleH De cisive in lis Character, *o. From tbo Richmond Knquirer, Sept. 23. The telegram from General Lee brings the unwelcome intelligence of a reversei to our arms in the valley. Gen. Early has retired from Winchester to Fisher's Hill, near Strasburg. The varying fortunes of the war in the valley have so repeatedly witnessed the falling back and subsequent ly the advance of our army that tois 'o'ef lieencs has not come unexpectedly. At one time the enemy were almost in Lynch burg: in a few weeks the shells from our guns were exploding within Washington city It has not been long since General Early advanced trom this very Fisher s Hill and drove the enemy into Harpers Ferry His present position is regarded as impregnable, and trom it he will, in due time, again advance upon the now rejoic ID The d^ath of Major General Robert K Rodes will We severely felt by the army of Northern Virgiuia, which sustains, by his death, the loss of one of its best officers. His promotion was rapid, for he early evioced thoae great qualities wbich won the confidence ot his men and the admirf tion of bis country. General Rodes was born in Lynchburg, Virginia, and gradua ted in the class of 1848 at the Virginia Military Institute, and, after a few years of professorship at that insiitution, he re moved to Alabama, where he married Miss Woodruff, of Tuscaloosa. Gene"' Bodes came out in 1861 as captain of the ?Mobile Cadets,' and, upon the organiza tion of the Fifth Alabama regiment, he waB appointed its Colonel. His best eu lofiry is the faithful record of his services. Promoted soon after, the first battle of Ma nassas to Brigadier General, he followed the fortunes of the army of N<mbero Virginia through the winter of 1861; tne siege of Yorktowo; wounded in the arm at the battle of Seven Pines, throughout the seven day's battles around Richmond ; upon the Maryland campaign ; wounded at Sharpsburg; present at Fredericksburg; at Chancellorsville, where be was made MBjor General; through the PenoBy vania campaign ; from Mine Run to Gaines Mill; with Early in the defence of Lynchburg ; again into Maryland, and with the vaUey army throughout its marches and battles, until be has fallen at Winchester, in the service to which he devoted himself, in the faithful discharge of duty, and in the en joyment of the grateful admiration of bis countrymen. He leaves a wife and.child, to whom no earthly honors cj?n bring any consolation, but to whom the tender sym pathies ot all will be freely given. Brigadier General A. C. Godwin ia also mentioned by General Lee as among the killed. General Godwin was formerly Provost Marshal of Richmond, and was subsequently promoted Colonel of a North Carolina regiment. It has been but a few days since the papers mentioned his ap pointment to the brigadier generalship. General GWwin was from Portsmouth, Va., and waB a most gallant officer. No other casualties are mentioned, but our loss is reported very sevore. The|fall of Atlanta has already cast a gloom over the community, and this reverse will very much increase it we fear. It should not be so. The fortunes of war are always un certain, and reverses are, of course, v?ry ?addening ; but it is unbecoming our peo ple not to shake off their long faoea and bring themselves to calmly and resolutely consider their situation. The army is al ways in fiae spirits, and, though defeated to-day, to-morrow it will retrieve the loss, and laugh at the sad and gloomy people who, far from danger, are yet more appre hensive than those who bear ita brunt. Desperate efforts on tho part of the ene my are to be looked for. The Presidential election compels Lincoln to be stirring and striking. He can only save bis election by success this fall, and, as there is no chance for peace between himand MoClel lan, we do not see that anything should be risked by us in a battle wbich cannot be decisive in its character. Partial fsuccess like this in the valley may elect Lincoln? we hope tbey will?but Ihey tend very lit tle to any final result. They serve the purpose of Lincoln?to defeat McClellan, but they contribute nothing towards our subjugation. But these reverses show that our people must come forth and go to the front; more are there wantel, and more must bo bad. The long list of government details must be shortened; the Nitre and Mining Bu reau, the Commissary and Quartermaster Pepartments must disgorge The conduc tors OW1 be lessened, the exempts re viewed and tbe army increased. But more tban this, when men are sent to the army they mast not be allowed to desert and straggle Off. Disci^ipe most be improved and m much done by offioer* of the line as K expected from tbe,Ba?au of Opnporip tion. Tp -Stop to tUodrn over reverses is great foUy; they should bat serve the peo pie as they do the army, to meet disaster with the fall confidence in the overruling Providejce, who sends victory or defeat as to him seems best. bmoicibgs in obant's abut on th? an NOUBCBMKNT 0* SBBBIDAB'S VIOTOBT. From the Richmond Inquirer Sept. 88. The only topic of interest in Petersburg on yesterday was a report that on Tues day evening and during the night there was a ringing about from Yankee throats extending all along the lines. The unex pected outbreak of exultation slightly mys tified our boys, until the news from the valley became mooted about, when toe demonstration was fully explained. There was tbe usual picket firing and artillery practice. From tbe Tth We?t Virginia Regi ment. Nbab Petebsbdbq, East Viboinia, \ September 22, 1864. J Editort Intelligencer: Although a strangerlto you,;and not be ing in tbe habit of writing for the public eye, yet I cannot refrain from asking you to say to the many readers of *?la" able paper, that the soldiers of the 7th West Virginia Veteran Volunteer Infantry, are looking to their loyal friends in West Vir ginia for assistance in putting down this unholy rebellion. We do not ask them all to come out to the front and help us fight, but we do (and consider we have a right to) aek that while we are in the front fighting the rebels with bullets, they do not stab us in the back with ballots, pre pared at Chicago by the traitor Vallandig ham. I do not charge Gen. McClellan with being a traitor, but I do say he is in very bad company. We, as soldiers, look upon tbis rebellion as about ready to tumble in, and their pickets tell us if it was not for the hope that their Copperhead friends in the north will succeed in the coming ela tion, they would give up the struggle. We see in tbe newapapors, and some of us get private letters, stating that some of our friends, who were formerly considered loy al, are going to vote for the Chicago can didate, platform and all. We pause and wonder what all this means. We have been lead to believe we were fighting to save our country from destruction. Our enemies north and south both sing the Bame song, whioh is hostility to our gov ernment and administration. We look to the front; the spell is broken; we see a rebel with bis musket raised ready to send a bullet through our head (should we be thoughtless enough to raise that precious piece of property above the breastworks); we then understand what all this cry against our government means; it is death to all union loving men, but peace and good will to all who will bend the knee and bow tbe head to Jeff Davis, (at least until he getB them into his power)?we then clinch our weapons with a firmer grasp and swear, God being our helper, to crush this rebellion and all itsco-work ers both north and Boutb. We call on all loyal men to help us put down this rebel lion. They can do more at this time by voting to uustain the administration than Gen. Grant can by taking Richmond. If you consider the foregoing worthy of a place in your paper, please insert it, as I believe it embraces the views of at least four fifths of the men of this regiment. Vory respectfully, your obd't serv't. M. Fbtty, ,1st Lieut. 7tb W. Va. Vet. Vol Inf. WMhlngton Vet Sp??k?lh I Editor t Intelligencer: Under the above caption suffer your correspondent to place before your read ers tbe following patriotic sayings of Gen. Washington. In his letter to the "Governors of the several states," on im pressing the minds of the American people with the importance of a strong federal league, he makes use of tbe strong and pointed language as follows: "That it is indispensible to the happi ness of the individual states that there should be lodged, somewhe-e, a superior power, to regulate and govern the general concerns of the confederated republic, without which the Union cannot be of long duration. That there must be a faithful and pointed compliance on the part of every state, with the late proposals and demands of Congress, or the most fatal consequences will ensue. That whatever measures have a tendency to dissolve the Union, or contribute to violate or lessen the sovereign authority, ought to be con sidered as hostile to the liberty and in dependence of Amerioa, and the authors of them treated accordingly," Again he sajs, "Without an entire con formity to the spirit of tbe Union we can not exist as an independent power." But more in bis view of the principles of dis union he Bays: "The treaties of European powers with the United States will have no validity on the dissolution ol the Union. We will De left nearly In a state of nature; or we may find by our own unhappy experience, that there is a natural and necessary progres sion from the extreme of anarchy to the extreme of tyranny, and that arbitrary power is most easily established on the ruins of liberty abused to licentiousness." Notwithstanding the warning voice of Gen. Washington, we have those who would be willing to have a Southern mon archy, an Eastern empire, a Western des potism, and some kind of an anstocratio government for the Middle States, when we might become an easy prey to tbe des potic powers of the European world. Is it not high time the people would awake from their lethargic sleep and save onr country 11 Yes, save 11 O 11 I ^ save onr country from dissolution, which is almost tantamount to desolation. B. Hubbs Landing, WeBt Va., Sept. 17, '64. The Shooting of Dr. Parle. Editori Intelligencer : In tbe Intelligencer of tbe 24th instant, I noticed tbe death of Dr. Wm. Park, said to be an unprovoked murder by a Union sol dier; that Park had been rather an inof fensive man, and had only voted for tbe ordinance of secession, since which time be had conducted himself as a peaceable citi zen, or words to that effect. I do not pre tend to say whether tbe soldier was right or wrong in shooting Dr. Park?it may have been justifiable and it may have been un provoked. That the soldier may not be prejudiced by tbe publication of tbe article alluded to, and that tbe character and con duct of Dr. Park may be understood, 1 make the following statement, vis: that Dr. Park and all bis family connections, bo far as I know, are disloyal, and have been bitter active enemies of tbe Government as far as their capacities would permit. In addition to this, Thomas Kirk, a copperhead, who lives near ltavenswood, and wbo is related to the Park family, told in the presence of thirteen gentlemen, in a drug store in Wellsburg, Brooke county, West Virginia, that General Wise had no powder when in Jacksoo county, except what Dr. Wm. Park furnished him, ind that there was not aoy other powder in tbe oounty except what Williim Park bad, and that was not quite one keg full, that William Park bad gone off with Gen. Wise, and that he, Kirk, had gone after bim and persuaded him to return home. I have no doubt that that powder killed some good Union men, and I have no tears to shed for bim wbo famished it, and that if the soldier did wrong who Shot him, tbe conotry has one less enemy.

Editors Intelligencer : The Union men of Blizabetbtown turned out en masse to-day, and raised a l?ge pole in front of tbe Court House. Everything was prepared and ready before tbe hour for raising arrived. When tbe crowd assem bled the process of raising oommenced and was completed in less than ten minutes After the pole was raised the old flag was run up, three cheers were then given for Lincoln it Johnson, and tbe people then convened in the Court House and were ad dressed by R. C. Holliday Esq., Robert Mc Connel Esq., and Capt. John Baggs, late ot the Snake Hunters. The campaign might be said to be fairly opened in Mar shall county. The ball rolls on steadily, and surely, without any opposition. It is reported down here and generally believed that Lincoln will carry this county and probably West Virginia. It sort of looks that way, * What Douglas Said. |To be compared with the Chicago Platform.j "The slave question is a mere excuse. The election of Lincoln a mere pretext. The present secession movement is the re sult of an enormous oonspiracy formed more than a year since?formed by leaders in the Southern Confederacy more than twelve months ago. The conspiracy is known; armies have been raised, war is levied to accomplish it* There are only two sidea of the question. Every man must be for the United States or against it.
