The left wing below? Petersburg moved westvardly, while JGen, Butler’s troops on tbe extreme right also made a recosnoiesance tn force. , The posi tive results secured sesm to be a gala of AC. teen miles ol territory, giving our left an opportunity of operating upon the enemy’s Sank, and the capture of three hundred pris oners. » Onr sews from rebel sources is of consid erable interest, and may be briefly summed up as follows: The Legislature of AI ibama Lave refSsed to appropriate money for the defence of tbe State, but voted to raise their own salaries. The rebel Congressman Hill, -of Georgia, has written a letter stating that two-thirds of tbe rebel arrriy have deserted. Bragg has gone to Wijhlogton, whereupon a rebel paper moumfally exclaims: “Good bye, Wilmington.” Early has been adminis tering a severe rebuke to his army, attribu ting his defeat to thtir propensity for plun dering. Tbe rebels have commenced con scripting negroes. - The gallant Union men of West Virginia have achieved a 'handsome victory at tbe polls, electing Gov. Boreman and the entire State ticket. Got.

OF NEW- - CAST*^, The telegraph announces the death of Henry Pelham Fiennes Pelham Clinton, X>nkc of Newcastle. He was bom in Lon don, May 22,1811. He was educated at Eton ac dat Oxford. In 1832, as Lord Lincoln, he was returned to the House of Commons. During Sir Bobert Peel’s administration, he was appointed to a Lordship of the Treas ury. He retired from office, with Peel, in 1846, but retained his seat, and up to the period of his elevation to the House of Lords, (1851) he exercised great in fluence as one of the leaders oi the small band of Peelites. At the close ef 1852, he became Secretary of State for the colonies m the Aberdeen ministry, in which capacity the functions of Roister of War devolved upon him. Shortly after the outbreak of the Crimean war the colonial department was separated from that ot the war, and the Duke choosing the latter re. ctived a share of the blame for the miscon duct of that w<r, which led to his resigna tion. In 1859 he became a member of Lord Palmerston’s Ado: inietration. Onr readers will remember him as the guardian of the Prince of Walee, with whom he vislUd Chi. c*go in 1800. TBE WORKING {HAN’S FRIEND. Mr. McCormick is carrying on a campaign paper called the Workivgma n't Advocate, In addition to Ms cash contributions, he has ihrmshed a letter for its last issue, telling Ihe “'workingmen,” of trbom that great workingman McCozuas is chief, that he (Mc- Cormick) is their friend! One would sup pose that the laborers in bis factory could answer the question better than Mr. McCor mick himself- If public rumor is worth any thing they do not regard him especially their friend. Mr. McCormick says that whenever the question of granting homesteads to the people irom the public lands comes up, the laboring men will And In him one of their Etauncheet and truest friends. Hehasprobo. bly not heard that the Homestead hill was passed by Congress two years ago. Tbs most noticeable feature of Mr. Mc- Cormick's letter to the workingmen Is that he ignores the fact that he was once a work ingman himself, and “ was not worth a red cent.” Instead of feeling an honorable pnde in view of this circumstance, he studiously keeps It out of sight and affects to patronize laboring men at a distance. He seeks to All them with the idea that he belongs to one of the first families of Virginia, and that he is condescending immensely to accept their votes. He talks largely about the gelations of capital to labor and lectures the Workingmen on their duties as citizens of a country composed of rich men and poor men. Why does he not speak of tberelations of capital to labor in tbe Southern States? Have the workingmen of Chicago forgotten the language of that eminent organ of Vir ginia Democracy, tbe Blchmoudl Enquirer, which arid, long before the present rebel lion: “The enslavement of tbe laborer if rich! In , and docs not depend on different qf com jxf&on. Experience choir* tbe nniver-al success ot clave labor, and the universal ftUlare of tree labor.” Have they forgotten tbe words of that em inent Democrat, Heracbel V. Johnson: “ BSLZETB THAT CAPITAL SHOULD OWN UißOa. 1* there any donbt that there mast be a laboring cites every form of government and civilization, there IK? 1 laboring cists—a c'aei of men vrho net ■their living bribes ireatot their brow; and then there mutt be another clast, to oosrnox. tub 7BUITB OT wrtnt LABOR.” Mr. Johnson undoubtedly considers him* Belf the workingman's friend, jost as Mr. McCormick docs, and with as good reason. We commend the Ist ter, in his next essay on the relations of •apltal and labor, to give some attention to those relations as they exist in his native 'State. We apprehend that that topic will be more interesting to workingmen of Chicago than the course which Mr. McCor mick intends to pursue when the homestead ■hill comes up in Congress.

A Clone Cba*o—Sherman Following Bood Rapidly—Bood’M Plan— Where Ue is Vainer— Snerman’s army In Fine Condition —Condition ot ' At lanta. [From our Special Correspondent.} NAeimiia, Oct 20, 1594. A gentleman connected with the army has arrived here, direct from Sherman’s army,* which he hit on Saturday morning, making his way with a courier to Chattanooga. He gives an inspiring account of the situation, and asserts that he never saw troops in a better condition than are those with Sher man. They are all confident that they will soon overtake and utterly rout Hood, whose rear guard is often in sight of our advance. The men are well supplied with provisions, and forage for animals is abundant. When he left Sherman, one forces were in the vi cinity of Gales ville, a few miles to the north of the Cooza, where they bad encamped, on Friday right—-Hood being a short distance on the Gadsden road. The soldiers In Hood’s army are indulging, even more than their wont, in straggling, and somehow these stragglers continue to reach our lines. They amount to several hundred a day, and are nearly all without shoes That this is no exaggeration. I have occular proof; 1,900 of them arrived In this city this morning, and walked along the streets, through the cold ram, amid deep slush, more than half oi them barefooted, and but few with blankets. They represent—! had a conversation with several of them—that before reaching our lines, they had nothing but parched earn to eat, but ot this they had plenty, foraging to tbetr hearts' content. The men here represented all three of Boob's corps, eo that no doabt cm exist of the fact that he has his whole army with him, which numbers some 27,000 men, in cluding cavalry. When Hood reaches Gadsden, he has but two courses in whiebbe con march; hemust either move to tbe Tennessee River, at Gun tbcrsca, or southward to Jacksonville, the terminus ot tbe Montgomery and Talladega Railroad. Although it will be an act of des peration on his part to move north, there are many reasons to believe he will do it Jeff Davis told the Georgians that he would strike onr communications far from the point Sherman expected an assault, and he also promised Cheatham’s men that they should soon tread Tennessee son, and inone of bis speeches he declared that be expected 80,000 recruits from Tennessee. A retreat southward wonldjcertalnly arouse the people of Georgia, who are now demanding peace: therefore be must move north, or run the risk of seeing the Empire State oi the South detach its ell frem the Southern Confed eracy. Beside, desperate diseases require despe rate remedies; and, while Hood has shown himself no General, so far as judgment is concerned, he has never exhibited auv fear of the consequences by any movement, "how ever reckleea; but he has played war until be has lost half his army; and it is hardly supposed that he has become cautious at this late date. There are indications of an intention, on his part, to move North besides the general ones already indicated. Tbe Montgomery .HsU of tbe 10th, eala that all malls and baggage for the Tennessee army had been ordered to a point in North Alabama, near the riyer; and Forrest is known to be recoonoitering for a crossing place at the Muscle Shoals, while Dick Taylor is gathering all hit forces In the vicinity of Mercian. A complete Inaction of all three scattered fragmentr will make an army ol 35.000 infantry, 10,000 cav alry and a 101 l supply of artllleiy; but if that force gets North of tbe Tennessee, It will never get back again I know that Sherman is extremely anxious that Hood shall undertake this movement. The Tennes see River is very high, and the rise is not a sudden one, like those wbichfoiloweammer rains; It,is plenty up, for six months, and our gunboats can patrol it. from Chitta uooca to tbe month, except at the shoals, which are 20 miles long, and it is hero that the rebels wish to cross.- 1 think they will find little resistance, in their northern movements, till they get across the nver; but getting south will not be so easy. Atlanta is perfectly safe, as there are no rebels in arms, In Georgia, outside of Hood’s army, ai d even if there were, the place could not be taken by 50,000 men (n three months; and nol in that time, except by catting oar communications. The first train over the road from Chatta nooga to Atlanta willleave to morrow morn ing, tbe brake made by Hood being no w fully repaired. Thus has departed- another staff upon which tbe rebels leaned. That it is necessary for Hood to do some thing, is apparent from the tone of the Southern papers; if he fails, they admit that all is lost, fie has failed; and if he'attempts more he will meet with positive and irrepar able disaster. A few days will probably develop the situa tion, and enable ns to know positively what will come of It; at present, we can only frame reasonable presumption. Rcj3«JPil«oaeni it DurlUe Escape from Thdr Bebel <iuard« The Richmond Enquirer ofthe nth has the following; “Yest'rday afternoon, about four o’clock, the negro prisoners encaged at work on the fortifications around Danville, made an at* tack on the guard, and after a desperate strug gle, succeeded in overpowering the small force, and gaining possession of about twen ty muskets. One hundred of the scoundrels then made their escape, following the Dan river in an easterly direction. During the scnfileeight.ofthencgrocewerekilled. These negro prisoners, with their white brethren, were carried over the Danville road doting the last week,on their way south, but for the w-nt of transportation were temporarily de tained InDanvlile. The authorities thereupon determined to put the negroes to work on the fortifications, and while so engaged, they availed themselves of an opportunity offered to make their escape. The citizens, armed with shot guns and muskets, turned out .promptly and started in pursuit of the fugi tives, and hopes are entertained ofthe capture of the entire party.” The Reported Draft a Fiction. It has bren widely reported that there Is to be another draft immediately after 'the election. This story is false. It was invent ed, of course, for electioneering purposes by the party which-jnst now makes it its prin cipal business to let the people know a great deal about the horrors of war and the beau ties of peace. This party has spread the fic tion Industriously, in the hope to frighten a man here and there, and thus to influence a vote against Mr. Lincoln, who is understood to be the lather of all the drafts—though, we believe, there is no doubt that the man who first urged the enforcement of tbe draft was General McClellan.— JlT.

[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribane.] Caibo, ill., Saturday, Oct, 2p. By the steamer Belle of -St Louis, which arrived last night, we have Memphis'dat:s of the afternoon of the 27th. The Bulletin says a rebel battery is reported at Brandy, wine Point, above Island 87. The steamer C. E. Hillman, dovtn from Cairo Tuesday night, was hailed above the island by a gun boat and notified that such was the case. The pilot was ordered to hug the land when passing. The officers of the gunboat stated that theAragoand Platte Talley were attack ed going up, and two persons on board were killed. The Hillman passed safely in convoy of the gunboat and lay at anenor a short dis tance below for several hours, but no rebels were seen. Gunboats are on guard at the Bend. Officers of the Belle of St. Louis saw and heard nothing of this battery on their late trip up from Memphis. ; It is reported that the rebel leaders in West Tennessee are exceedingly active, and bave established railroad and telegraphic communications between Corinth and Jack eon, making a wholesale conscription of all men able to bear arms, pressing in boys of tender years and men loitering on the brink ol the grave, at the same time sending agents into every portion of West Tennessee out ride the Federal lines, to seize and appropri ate for the use oi the rebel army everything that can be made available—horses, mules, cattle and_ hogs, with household goods, money andxther valuables. It Is reported that the itinerant rebel Gov ernor of Tennessee, Is ham G. Harris, his been recently in consultation with Forrest and ocher rebel chiefs, and unless the Fede ral authorities forestall the project by some movement, a secession rebel Legislature is to be held.at some point, so that it may go abroad.as evidence that the rebels have per manently re-occupied West Tennessee. I bave had a conversation tnis morning with Captaln Zeigler, of the steamer Belle St Louis, regarding the attack on his boat at Randolph. It seems thata man named Har ris had some cotton at Bandolph, of which place-he was a resident He had alkotwo boles put aboard at Memphis. The Belle St Louis stopped about midnight of the 27th st Bandolpn, a the request of Harris, and sent out George Atherton, second clerk, and a number of neck hands end negroes, to take on the cotton. Capt Zeigler was on deck, and toon after commencing operations perceived about a hundred rebels rushing toward the boat, shouting and yelling. He immediately ordered the pilot to back off from shore; but before he coaid get clear, or before the clerk and deck hands could get in the plank, ei;bt of the Confederates rushed into the water, and managed to get upon the lower deck forward. One imme diately put a revolver to the head of-eich engineer, and ordered the steamer brought to, which was Oris rebel demanded a pocket-book ol the engineers, enforcing the order by presenting a revolver. The engi neer pulled out the money and showed ft, j bat said he would see the rebels in a hotter place before be wonid give it up. The rebel fired and killed the engineer. The other en gineer immediately pnt steam on his wheel, v hich swung the boat into the stream. Meanwhile the rebels, to the number of about 100 on shore, were firing volleys upon tte disabled boat, wounding one negro and several white men. -One of the Confederates at this time came into the saloon forward, demanding the surrender. Moat of the pas sengers were lying on the floor to escape the bullets. Capt. Ziegler was jnst ascending the companion ladder when this rebel fired at, but missed him. Be then went* above and took his station and commanded the movements of the steamer, notwithstanding tte shower of bullets which came whistling about him. Six.ol the rebels, seeing they wexe being carried out into the nver and that their orders were not obeyed, jumped into the water and escaped. Two were left, the officer who haddemandedthe surrender, and a private who had demanded the poiket bock of one of the passengers. The rebels on shore kept up their fire un- - til the boat got out of range. Pilot McPhe ten stood ac his post manfully, as did other officers. While the boat was backing oat. Paymaster Major Bnler, U. S. A, came out forward of the gangway, armed with a re volver, and encountered one of the'rebels. The latter had fired his pistol but drew a re volver, when a duel*commenced between Major Bnler and bimse>fat short range. Several shots were fired on both sides, when therebel was shot intbemouthand fell. He took aim after he was down, and shot Major Bnler, killing him almost instantly. He then gave up the ghost. I saw his body but a moment since. He was the man in command of the party that boarded the boat under Bill Forrest, brother of General Forrest, and the same who had flourished his revolver in the saloon, ordering the boat to surrender. The other facts are about as stated in my dispatch of last evening. It is supposed the . rebels were after money which was in' the hands of several United States paymasters who were known to he on hoard. The rebel captured, Olio, was shot through the right breast, hut may possibly recover. He is now In charge of tbe provost marshal, and kindly cared for. He was found secreted upon the aft guard of the boat, without hat or coat, and no papers uponhis person. He is young man not over 19, and denies being one of tbe rebel gang, but minima to have been a passenger. He is Identifiedf however, by some one os having made a demand for the surrender of a purse, and there is little donbt'of his'compli city withthe rebels. Some fifteen ballets passed through the pilot-house, and five or six shots struck a stove-pipe upon the upper deck, which in the darknessxeeembled the form of a man, and was undoubtedly taken for one by the-rebels on shore. No serious damage was done the steamer. Nothing has yet been heard of Mr. Harris, the clerk, George Atherton, or the deck hands left at Randolph.- All ore sup posed to he in rebel I KOH ST. LOUIS.

[Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.} Louis, Saturday, OcU 29, • The suspicion that Price U making his tray into Arkansas t is Forsyth, is confirmed. Ilia demoralized forces -were at last accounts between Lamar and Carthage. ‘ The reported killing of BUI Anderson in Hay county is doubted by many officers, who suppose lie was in G&rroU county when the fight took place. , A gentleman who arrived hers last night from Little Bock, which post he left on the 20th, communicates to ns the following: Scouts came into Little Rock on the eve of the 18th, and reported that a body of from 15,000 to 20,000 rebels, cavalry and Infantry, with artillery, were creasing the Saline river, just below Benton, in Saline county. Benton is about twenty-five miles southward from Little Bock. The next day two.reconnolter ing parties of cavalry left Little Rock, com posed of the Ist and 14th -Missouri cavalry, amounting to 1,000 men. One party moved west and the other in a direct line towards Benton. There were apprehensions of a de sign to attack Little Bock, but it was thought the rebel movement bad for its object a co operation with Price’s forces advancing from Kansas, presumed by the rebels to be laden with Broils collected from the raid through Missouri and Konaas. It Is highly probable that tbe Canfederate trans-Mississippi pro gramme has been arranged for reinforcing Price at a period when it might have been expected the Union armies wonld be upon bis heels. This rebel force is reported to be under the command of Gen. Harris. Some three weeks ago tbe General was said to be leading a large body of rebel troops within ten miles of Pine Bluff An expedition was sent from Little Bock to find them, when they retired toward Camden, south of Saline county. . That force may be the same now reported. It was then foned to be 5,000 strong. The Democrat ’a Lamlne river special says that fifty prisoners captured near SedalU are on their way to Jefferson City. Tuoy all tell the same story. They were forced into and deserted from Price’s army. Let the people of Missouri beware ot all such-of Price’s conscripts. FBOSt WASHINGTON.

It is supposed that the same rule will be applied in all similar cases on presentation of satis factory prool that the full payment was actually acd in good faith made before the regulations forbidding it were issued. Gen. Duffle and the members of his staff are understood to bare been captured near Maitlnsburg when coming over from Win chester.

A portion of the Bth Illinois cavalry had a skirmish with Moshy near Salem, and took a few prisoners. Tbe National Congressional Committee is closing up its labors.

It Is re markable that ju«t as he came into this sec tion, thousands oi guerillas came from Mis souri also. These last are being distributed all over the State, and not a few in Adams, Hancock and Fulton Counties. Just here wlllbe the outbreak. ' The pretense will be resistance to the draft Not many weeks since I fibtifled you of the shooting of Phelps, the son of one of the Assistant Pro vost Marshals of the Ninth District, by the Fnlton County bushwhackers. Last night JShn Cries, another Assistant Provost Mar shal, was shot in Liverpool Township, by some of the vUllans, and so seriously wound ed that his life is despaired of, His offence was an attempt to servenotices upon drafted men. All through the southern half of the county the Copperheads are in arms, and de termined to resist the enforcement of the Conscription Act. 1 see no alternative but to declare martial law in Fnlton County, al though I believe this step will bo folio wed by revolution. There can be no doubt of the issue, "however. An Interesting joint discussion was held at Canton yesterday afternoon by Major ton, Union candidate for Congress from the 9th district, and Hon. T. W.Ross, Copper head candidate for Fnlton. The former was very happy fn the conduct of bis share ot the discussion, and flayed the Congressman unmercifully. There was an interesting Union gathering at the wigwam in Canton last evening, at which addresses were made by Judge Stearns and others. On Wednesday evening Judge Kellogg, Judge Steams and Dr. Ray addressed a large audience at Buehnell. It was one of the most satisfactory meetings of the campaign. To-day Jndge win.

The Judge Advocate claimed the court had jurisdiction and laid the offense was in violation of gen eral order 269—and decided it had jurisdic tion. 0. K. Wood, | of ‘Westchester, coun ty, sworn on the port of the Government: He was Agent of the Union Committee of his county. He had his suspicions aroused while on a visit to Fort Monroe, and finally went to Mr. Ferry, State-Agent/representing himself as a McClellan man. .Here he soon learned that when Lincoln votes were sent there from the soldiers, they were changed for McClellan, and he was assured that there was more of this done than he thought 01. The witness detailed the operation of filling up the blanks, &c., and much other informa tion, showing a systematized fraud.. While in Ferry’s office two soldiers coming in,sign ed a power of attorney, and each placed the Union Electoral Ticket with the Democratic State Ticket in envelopes.

FBOSI GBANTS ABUT. Tbe Becsanslisanee on Thursday • Tbe Besnlts Gained. New York, October 29.—Tho>C:mmcrcfaI’« Washington special says that officers on Grant’s staff write that the late move was only a xeconnolseance, and a point has been gained which will make the next move one of tbe greatest importance, and it is hoped of brilliant succrss Washington, Octoher29.—There seems to be no doubt from concurring testimony, -that Gen. Grant’s recent move was intended only as a rtcoonoissance to obtain a knowl edge of the situation and strength of the rebel lines.' New York, October 29.—The Commercial'a Washington special says the President la in most cheeriol mood to-day in view of the military, situation; It is thought there is ’good news In his: possession which will speedily be made public. . New York, jt/cu-Ar-The New York TVf fcur.t’a com&fonaent at Warren’s Stitlon, Oct. 27tb, bats: This morning tbe entire army is in motion, with six days’ rations and ammunition f_r any emergency. Tbe move ment is a left flank, and on the extreme left Gregg’s cavalry Is swinging around towards the South Side railroad and the Appomat tox. Then comes tbe 9th corps in martial array, the first division lapping the cavalry with artillery and the other divisions extend ing to the sth corps, upon the 3d, and the right division of which is anon a pivot; the revolving line is turning, while the two di visions of the 2d corps are keeping time with tbe movements as a reserve. The Immediate objective point of themovementls the South Slue railroad and the Appomattox river, in h circle of tbe existing fortified* line. Our line being once extended to tbe river, with this natural barrier between ours and the main rebel army, it will be a very easy mat ter. as wIU be seen by reference to the map, to keep tbe Danville railroad on the south side of the Appomattox constantly cat by cavalry raids. It is impossible to foresee at what point tbe movement will stop, but I do not think the plan is to extend tbe move ment, particularly at this time, further than to the Appomattox. Then the Danville rail road, south of the -Appomattox, will natu rally be the next point of attack. General Grant has just arrived from City Point, with four orderlies and two days’ ra tions Ot sandwiches. He yesterday sent all Lis bedy guard ot cavalry to join Gregg’s cavalry on tbe extreme left. The skirmishing has already' commenced, as the train that hears this leaves for City Point. ANOTHER DISPATCH. Headquabtebs Anacr or the Potomac, 1 lii THE FIBLD, OCt;.27—9P. M. f The long looked-for advance of the armies operatlDgagainst Rlchmondjiaa at last taken place. Yesterday tbe final preparations were completed by the withdrawal of the greater part of the Army of the Potomac from the trenches, and massing it in the rear ready ior the move. The first division of tbe 2d Corps, a part of the sth and 6th Corps held the entire line from the Appomattox on the rlvht to some three miles west of the IVeldon Railroad on the left. All baggage wagons, etc., were sent to the rear at City Point. At two o’clock this morning General Han cock, with the 2d and Sd divisions of his corps, moved along the Vaughn road, run ning southwest, ana after crossing Thatcher’s Run, found the ?r?belsintrenchedlanewly made works. General Hancock at once charged them on the flank, and drove them ont and took some twenty prisoners, mostly cav airy. The sth Corps took the Squirrel Level road, and found the rebels posted at its junction with the Duncan road, which turns north from tbe Vaughn road to the Boynton road. From this they were driven by our skirmish ers with some loss, the Ist division having about thirty wounded. The 3d division of this corps took the advance, and crossing at Thatcher’s Run, connected with the 21 Corps. Meantime Hancock advanced along a by-road, driving the rebels before him till he reached the Boynton plank road, where tbe column halted and formed a line of bit tie, the lelt reaching some distance west of the road, atdltho right extending to a thick woods. s On tbe right, the Cth corps had also formek and advanced through the woods two miles, but the left line failed to connect with the right ol the 2d corps. The rebels fell back as we advanced until tbe line reached Thatcher’s again, when the zebels were found behind strong intrench meats, and a brisk fire ensued, but without mukh loss on cither side. At about 4 o’block, afternoon, the rebels taking advantage of the breaking of-the line between tbe 2d and 6th corps, massed Gen. Anderson’s division ot Hill’s corps, and charged the right wing of tbo 2Ji corps, which cave way and fell back a short dis tance, but, being reinforced, charged and checked the advance of the rebels, and cap tured a number of prisoners. Our loss In tbe affair is not known, but la not believed to be heavy. A lew minutes after the rebel cavalry, which had been cut off ontheßoynton Road, made an attack on Gregg’s divlson, directly In tbe rear of tbe 2d Corps, and for a time quite a sharp skirmishwas kept up. Gregg finally drove them off -In the charge made oh-the 2d Corps, two guns were said to have been taken by the rebels, hut it Is stated they were subsequent ly recaptured. Fighting continued ou ♦bfa part ot the line until after darx, when a hea vy rain ended the fighting for the day. The oth Corps occupied the right of the advance, bnt did not gain much ground. • The object was to allow tbe left to get fairly around on the Boynton plank road, before the right ad vanced. Tbe colored division of the 9kh Corps had some sklrmishlrg with the rebels, bnt nothing approaching a fight. They had a few wounded. Gregg’s cavalry had a sharp fight with the rebels in the forenoon, when they attacked the rear of his column. He charged and drove them back, capturing a number of prisoners, and from eighty to one hundred wagons loaded with supplies, and also some horses, mules, etc. The troops which occupied the country over which we passed to-day, were Boteler’s and Young’s divisions ot South Carolina and Georgia troops, with a part of Wilcox’s brigade. Ourlelt wing gained about fifteen miles of country to-day, and Is now in a position to attack the enemy’s works on the flank. General Warren bad a narrow escape while riding along the line to-day, a ball grazing Ms cheek and mating a slight wound. The number of prisoners taken yesterday is about 300. FBOAI BALTmOBE.

[Correspondence of the Chicago Tribune ] Mt. Vebhok. HI., Oct. 25, 1854. Tbls has been a high day for the loyal masses of Jefferson county.. Gen. Logan has just closed one of the most brilliant efforts of his life. The meeting was pronounced as large, and heyond'all question the most en. thneiastlc, ever held in the county. About 11 o’clock, the people from the country began to pour In Irom every direc . tion. In fact, for an hour or two it looked as though the “ bottom had fallen out.” and all hands would light in Mt. Vernon. About noon a magnificent procession formed, head ed by the Centralla Braes Band, under the guidance of Capt. Jasper Partridge—one of the noble heroes of the 44th Illinois Volun teers, whose term ot enlistment had expired —and Capt Joe P. Watson—of Gen. Palmer’s staff—marshals of the day. Flags floated in every direction, not the flag of surrender to rebels in arms, which the Chicago traitors recommend to tbe American but the glorious old stars and stripes, which Wash ington, Jefferson and Jackson honored, and which every patriot loves an d cherishes as the proud emblem of our nationality. Gen. I. N, Haynie opened the meeting with a strong argumentative speech of one and ahalf boors in length. Some points seem ed tome unanswerable. linatanceone: “The draft law was passed by Congress, and was constitutional. That law will take you or your eons to aid in putting .down the rebel lion. «Bnt the Democratic narty claims that It Is unconstitutional to take a rebel’s negro to aid In crushing the rebellion—thereby as serting the doctrine that a rebel’s negro is tupejior to ythir oxen sons. Honest men of Illinois, what do you think of that?” His speech was followed by loud cheers lor Gen Haynie acd the Union. * Gen. Logan then arose to speak, hut was prevented for some minutes by the sponta neous outbursts of applause from the audi ence, and mnslc from the band. Quiet was at length restored and the General proceeded to dissect the Chicago Platform and rebel sym pathizers generally. He exhibited the thing In all its hideous deformity—showed that Jeff Davis could endorse every sentiment of the platform, and doubtless hod a great deal to do in famishing the brains of that instru ment, as he had in the control of most ofthe leaders who supported it. He said tbe edi tor of the Mt. Vernon Star (the organ of the Democracy of this county) was a “traitor and a liar and he could prove it from his own paper. He proceeded*to do so by reading from that paper, dated Oct. 21st lust., as fol lows : fiHERMAN GONE UP? “Wa received a telegraphic dispatch at this place to-day. stating that Sherman and his entire array bad beta captured, and that Grant was re treating from before Petersburg. We expected this news, bat not quite so soon. If this be true look not lor another draft. Truly the rebellion is on 4 its last legs.’ but they are d—d good legs, these last legs. That’s what’s the matter,” Gen. Logan then pitched into our local Coppers In his own peculiar style. Iu the midst ot his speech. Dr. Green, (a leading Democrat) requested the General to retract something he had said, as he did not like it. Logan —“ What I did say was, any man who endorses the Chicago Platform is a sym pathizer with traitors,. and I say it yet, whether you like it or not.” Green —‘‘l say ary man who endorses the Lincoln Platform la on enemy to Ms coun try.” Logon —“ I say you are ad— d liar ’’—gath ered a glass tumbler and hurled it at the doc tor’s head. The doctor dodged it and drew a revolver. Loean gathered a pitcher and made at Mm. The Marsha], however, put Green cut instanter, and no doubt saved his life by doing so. Cheers followedLogaa and groans for Green. Logan resumed Ms speech—seemed to gather strength from the recent occurrence, and such a riddling as he gave the peace sneaks, home rebels and their treasonable platform, was, perhaps, never excelled by any living mam. One round of applause after onother followed almost every sentence. Old Democrats laughed and cried by turns in fact, the last hoar of Ms speech was, on the part of bis audience almost one contin ued ovation. Such laughing, crying, stamp ing and shouting was never before seen at this place at a political meeting. The meet ing closed about dark, with loyalty triumph ant and Copper, at a discount, a marked epoch In the history of Jefferson county. a. B. Barrett.
