Circular from Secretary' Seward.— The following clruclar, by Mr. Seward, ad- dressed to all the diplomatic and consular a gents of the United States, is published in the Paris papers. It will be noticed tliat the cir- cular is dated on the same day as the emanci pation proclamation: Department of State, 1 Washington, Sept 22. Gentlemen: Yon will receive by the mail which will carry you this despatch, evidence which will convince you that the aggressive movement of the rebels agaiust the States re maining faithful to the Union is arrested, and that the lorces of the Union, strengthened and reanimated, are again ready to undertake a campaign on a vast scale. If you consult the newspa(iers you will easily perceive that the financial resources ol the insurrection decline rapidly, and that the means ol raising troops have been exhausted. On the other side you will see that the finan cial situation of the country is good, and that the call lor Iresh troops, without which the material force of the nation would Ire seriously crippled, Is being promptly responded to. I have already informed our representatives abroad of the approach of a change in the so cial organization of the rebel States. This change continues to make itself each day more and more apparent. In the opinion of the President, the moment has come to place the great fact more clearly before the people of the rebel States, and to make Ikeui understand that if these Slates per sist in imposing upon the country the choice between the dissolution of '.his Government, at once necessary and beneficial, and the abo lition of slavery, it is the Union ami not slave ry that must lie saved. With this object the President is alioiit to publish a proclamation,in which he announces that slavery will no lon ger be recognized In any of the States which shall be in rebellion on the l*t of Jan. next.— While all the good and wise men of all coun tries will recognize this measure as a just ami proper military act, intended to deliver the country from a terrible civil war, they will re cognize at tile same time the moderation ami magnanimity with which the Government pro ceeds in a matter so solemn nud important.— I am, gentlemen, vour obedient servant, WILLIAM H. SEWARD. Supposed Murder ot n Union Man—Ten Confederate Prisoners Shot in Retaliation. The fact has been published that Geu. Mc Neil caused ten Confederate prisoners to be shot at Palmyra, Mo., on the 18th iust. The cause of the tragedy, and the particulars of the execution are given as follows: [From the Palmyra, Mo., Courier.] When the rebels entered Palmyra, an old resident of the place, Andrew AUsnmn by name, mysteriously disappeared, and it is sup posed he was murdered. When Gen. McNeil returned to Palmyra, af ter that event, and ascertained the circum stances under which Alisinan had lieen ab uucieu, ne causcu iu ue issued a nonce luai u tlie missing man was not returned within len days lie would retaliate upon the rebel prison ers in his hands. The ten days elapsed, and no tidings came of the man. The tenth day expired with last Friday. Oil that day ten rebel prisoners, al ready in custody, were selected to pay, with their lives, the penalty demanded. The names of the men so selected were as follows: Willis Baker, Lew is county. Thomas Huinston. Lewis county. Morgan Bixler, Lewis county. John Y. McPheelers, Lewis county. Herbert Hutson, Ralls county. John M. Wade, Ralls county. Marion Lair, Ralls county. Capt. Thomas A. Sidney, Monroe county. Eleazer Lake, Scotland county. Hiram Smith. Knox county. These parties were informed on Friday eve ning that uuless Mr. Allsiuun was returned to his family by 1 o'clock oil the following day they would all be shot at that hour. Most til them received the announcement with com posure or indifference. The Rev. James S. Green, of this city, remained with them dur ing that night, as their spiritual adviser, en deavoring to prepare them for their sudden entrance into the presence of their Maker. A little alter VJ o’clock M., the next day, three government wagons drove to the jail.— One contained four, and each of the others three rough board coffins. The condemned men were conducted from the prison, and seated iu the wagons—one upon each coffin. A sufficient guard of soldiers accompanied them, and the cavalcade started for the fatal grounds. Proceeding east to Maine street, the cortege turned, and moved slowly south ward as far as Malone’s livery stable. road, pursuing it to the residence of Colonel James Culberston. There throwing down the fences they turned northward, entering the Fair Grounds (hall a mile easl of the town)«m the west side and driving within the circular amphitheatricai ring, paused for the final con summation of the scene. Tlic ten coffins were removed from the w a gons and placed in a row, six or eight feet it part. forming a line north and south aliout fifteen paces east of the central pagoda or mu sic stand in the centre of the ring. Each coffin was placed upon the ground with its foot west and head east. Thirty soldiers of tile 2d M. S. M., were drawn up in a single line, extending north and south, lacing the row ol coffins. This line ol executioners ran im mediately at the east of the pa goda—leaving a space between them and the coffins of twelve or thirteen paces. Reserves we re drawn up in line upon either flank of these executioners. The arrangements completed, the doomed men knelt upon the grass between their coffins and tile soldiers, while the Rev. R. M. Rhodes ottered up a prayer. At tile conclusion of this each prisoner took his seat upon the loot ol' his coffin, facing the muskets w hich in a few minutes were to launch them into eternity. They were nearly all Arm and undaunted. Two or three only showed signs of trepida tion. The most noted of the ten was Capt, Thom as A. Sidaer of Monroe county. He was now elegantly attired in a suit of black broadcloth, with white vest. A luxuriant growth of beau- tilul hair rolled down his shoulders. There was nothing especial worthy of note in the ap pearance of the others. One of them, Willis Baker of Lewis county, was proven to be a man who last year shot and killed Mr. E/.ekiel Pratte, bis Union neighbor, near Williamstown, in tbat county. All the others were rebels ol lesser note. A few minutes after one o’clock, Col. Strach an, Provost Marshal General, and Rev. Mr. Rhoades shook hands witli the prisoners. Two of them accepted bandages—all the others re fused. A hundred spectators had gathered around to witness the impressive scene. The stillness of death pervaded the place. The officer in command now stepped for ward and gave the word of command—“Rea dy aim; Are!” The discharges, however, were not made simultaneously, probably through want of a perfect previous understanding ol the orders and of the time at which to Are. Two ol the rebels lell backwards upon their coffins and died instantly. Capt. Sidner sprang forward, and fell with 1 his head towards the soldiers, his face upwards, j his hands clasped upon bis breast, and the lell i leg drawn half way up. He did not move j ag tin, but died immediately. He had reqnes- ted the soldiers to aim at his heart, and they olteyed hut too implicitly. The other seven were not killed outright: so the reserves were called in, w ho disputched them with their re volvers. The lifeless remains were then placed in the coffins, the lids, upon which the name of each man was written, were screwed on, and the direful procession returned to town by the same route that it pursued in going. Friends claimed and took several of the corpses. Three were buried by the military in the public cemetery. Tbe tragedy was over. METROPOLITAN I>TG S^VLOO^. 14 and 16 Exchange Street, PORTLAND.

The nk PLUa ultra ha* been reached at last in TODD'S HAIR DYE. and the article has given entire satis faction to every person who has used it. It contains no injurious ingredients, and gives flip hair a beauti ful rich brown or black color. Directions for using —which are very simple—accompany each bottle. One superiority of Todd’s Lux Sofis Hair Dye over all others is, you do not have to cleanse the hair or wash it before or after using the dye, and there is but one kind to be used, and that can be put on the «ame as oil and water, without any trouble, unliko all oth er dyes that have two or three different kinds to be applied every time used. This dye is peculiarly adapted for coloring ladies’ hair, because you do not have to wash out the dye after putting it on. Unlike all other dyes, it will 'color long l air, which other dvea cannot do. Give this new article a trial, a* we know vou will use no other after once using this. tr v or sale only at TODD'S HAIR-DRESSING ROOMS, No. 74 Middle, corner of Exchange Street. septlOtf JUNCTION OF FREE AND MIDDLE STS., -DEALER IN Fine Chemicals, Pure Drugs, GENUINE MEDICINES, ENGLISH, FRENCH AND AMERICAN PERF1MERT, AND FANCY GOODS.

THE DAILY PRESS. PORTLAND, MAINE. Saturday Morning, Nov. 1, 1862. The Portland Daily Press has the largest regular circulation of any daily paper in the city. That “Soldier’s Response.” The Advertiser of yesterday published a communication signed “W. C. M.,” and head ed “A Soldier’s Response to the attack in the Press upon Gen. McClellan aud the army of the Potomac." This pompous title was put to it in the Advertiser office, aud not by the writer. We know this, because the “soldier," a young man of eighteen summers, certainly not over twenty, who is a Sergeant Major in a Massachusetts regiment, came into our office, and offered his communication to the Press. He is a well-appearing, intelligent and, we judge, well-educated young man, but, like most young men of bis age. probably knows with positiveuess some tilings that at thirty he will douht,at forty will dispute, aud utility will deny, and yet we were pleased with his gener al appearance, and strongly disposed to ac; commodate him to the fullest extent. We learned from him that, while he proposed to refute the statements of an eye and ear wit ness who had spent a week in the camps of the army of the Potomac, lie had never been in those camps, that he had been in McClel lan’s army oil the Peninsula, and not since, that he liad not been with the Potomac army under McClellan iu Maryland, and, therefore, did not know a thing, personally, of the facts of which he proposed to speak, or of the state ments which he proposed to refute. Still, we did not decline his communication, but told him to leave it and we would look it over, aud he could think it over, and then if he thought best to have it inserted it could be done Saturday morning, but not conveniently before, as our columns were crowded. We suggested to him that our correspondent, whom he was disposed to dispatch very cava lierly, was a man of keen eye-sight, not more liable to be deceived in his facts than most men, and that lie was an honest man who would be actuated by no desire to do wrong; that if he had facts with which to meet facts they would be legitimate rebutting testimony, but that suppositious and speculations were poor material with which to set aside unpleas ant truths. We reminded him that the matter upon which he was not only sensitive but pos itive, is one in relation to which military men differ; thut Hooker, and Burnside, and Sprague—all Democrats, and, therefore,'not influenced by political feeling—differ from Porter and Franklin, and under such circum stances it was barely possible that he might be mistaken. We advised him to think the whole matter over carelully, and then, if he insisted, his communication should be fairly treated. He preferred not to accept this advice— tendered in the spirit of frankness and honor— but withdrew, taking his communication with him, intimating in no equivocal manner that he was not particular about its publication at all. So much lor the history of “A soldier's response,” Ac. “W. C. M.” proceeds to tell what he knows of McClellan’s army from what he “has seen and heard during a life of fifteen months among them.” It seems to us he commences by drawing rather a long bow, for McClellan did not enter the field at the head of the army of the Potomac till March 14th, and on the 20th of August that army left Yorktown, after the Peninsula campaign, since which time, our young friend informed us, he had not been in It, but had been in the brigaded'Gen. Sickles. It is not our purpose to defend our corres pondent, “Portland,” or to follow "A soldier's Respouse,” but we will uolice two points only. He quotes our correspondent,—"The army would be enthusiastic if a powerful and earn est spirit was at its head,”—to convict him of alleging that the soldiers are not satisfied with their preseut commander. His logic is too imperfect to call for reply. A whole army may be destitute of spirit and earnestness, and yet no dissatisfaction exist between supe riors and inferiors. It was not soldier-like in our young subaltern to say to us, with earn estness and emphasis, as he bas intimated in bis “response,” that a change of commanders would demoralize the army—that the soldiers would not fight under a new commander. If soldiers derive such a spirit from their com manders, no matter who they may be, the “change” cannot be made too soon, for our army is to follow its commanders, placed over It by the highest authority, and not to revolt and undertake to dictate terms to the Govern ment. iuc cunur ui me Auveruser nas caugni at a tad ignorance of geography betrayed by our correspondent, who is made to speak of the difficulty of obtaining a pass to “cross Navy Yard bridge to the Virginia side, and pass both sentries at each end of the bridge, and return without unfolding the pass.” Because Navy Yard Uidge does not cross the Poto mac, but simply the eastern branch, and both ends of it are in Maryland, W. C. M.” very brilliantly infers that the unlaithful pickets were guarding some hen-roost in the regiou which ‘Portland’ mistook for the Old Domin ion.” And the editor makes a flourish, as though such a mistake upset all the unpleasant dis closures made by “Portland,” us the result of his personal observatiou. Now suppose “Port land” to have been misluken, and that he did cross Navy Yard bridge, and did not go to Virginia, the material fact would remain un changed for if passes are granted—and are Obtained ouly with difficulty—to cross that bridge, (into a region where there are fortifi cations and large bodies of troops,) lx it the posset are not unfolded to sentinels, does not the laxity of discipline appear precisely us stated by our correspondent?—a laxity not in Gen. McClellan's commaud, but somewhere else. But all tills flourish of the editor of the Advertiser, and all this brilliant allusion of his correspondent to the “unfaithful hen-roost pickets," is the result of an omission in the types, and not of “Portland—an omission of which we were ignorant when “W. C. M.” called upon us, though he himself suggested that there was probnbly a verbal error in the Case. Bead the sentence from “Portland" as below, as it should have been, and all is plain, and the geography of the country is saved from violence: “You may get a pass in Washington with difficulty to cross Navy Yard bridge, on to the Virginia side, and pass both sentries, at each end of the bridge, and return without unfolding the paper.” A Good Telegraphic Joke.—“It is evi dent that the cause of the Confederates has grown desperate under the heavy blows that their nrms have lately received in Mississippi, —Bragg's disastrous retreat from Kentucky, and the terrible scarcity of food and clothing for their armies. [Morning telegraphic dis patch, 30th.] Bragg’s army must be suffering under a “terrible scarcity'" of food and clothing, with a wagon train of the article* forty miles long captured Irom us. [See tel. reports the day previous.] 1 Letter from the Southwestern Army. The writer of the letter from which the fol lowing extracts are taken, Joseph D. Emery is a sou of Horace Emery, Esq., of Buxton Me. Sergeant Emery enlisted from Ohio it: one of the first regiment*of three months mer from that State, and served under Gen. Me Clellan in western Virginia: was mustered out of service at the expiration of his enlistment and the next day enlisted for three years, am was attached to the western army. Sergeant Emery has participated in two of the severest battles of the war—the taking of Fort Don aldson, and at Pittsburg Lauding. He com i manded his company on the second day of tht last named battle, his Captain haviug beer wounded, (botli Lieutenants being absent) and was commended by his superiors as a cour j ageous and faithful officer. 22d Ohio Vols., Camp near Corinth. Oct. 15,1802. Your welcome letters of 20th and 29th insts t are before me, and I improve the first opportu nity that has offered itself since the 3d, to an swer. You have, of course, received full particu lars of the attack on this place by the com bitted forces ol Price and Van Dorn, and oi their defeat and rout; so 1 will only write con i' corning our own Regiment, Brigade, and Di I vision. Aliout four days before the attack on j this place we had been ordered to have three days cooked rations in our haversack, and be ready to move at any moment. None of us believed that an attack would be made on this place, (though it was so rumored) until the morning of the 3d. About dark on the eve ning before we were ordered to be ready tc move early next morning. About three o'clock we were ordered into line, and re mained in line of battle until daylight. Allot getting breakfast our whole division started in the direction of Corinth, and then we began j to believe that there might be something in tlie minor of an attack. We passed through i town about a mile, and halted; had been there but a few minutes before we heard the boom I ing of cannon quite a distance in advance.— We remained here about half an hour, and then our regiment was ordered back to town to assist Col. Bercli (14th Mo. sharpshooters) in ins duties, while our Division was ordered forward, and in about two hours our Division was engaged with the enemy. We marched back to town and stacked arms, and wereordreed to pick up ull stragglers, and prevent a stampede, in case our forces w ere driven back. With us the day passed off very quietly. A little before dark our forces were driven back to the edge of the town, and a few' shots were thrown from the forts. We were then ordered into town, very near to our advance lines, and we all expected that on the next day we would be sent forward, and try our hands. Our brigade commander, Gen. Oglesby, was badly wounded this day. We would be very sorry to lose him. for there is none b it what like him. Gen. Ilackleinan, commanding a brigade in our Divison, was killed, beside quite a number of regimental of ficers killed and wounded. The papers in ty say what they have a mind to, but our Division did nearly all the lighting on this day. Saturday morning, about 3 o'clock, we were ordered to get our breakfast, and be ready for any movement that might lie nade. I had just got my coffee boiled, and a piece of fat meat fried and a hard cracker, and hud just sat down, and was going in on my muscle, and having a glorious time as I tiio’t, when boom went a cannon, and a shell passed over our heads, and struck a house occupied by Gen. R jseucrans, not over twenty yards from where I sat. I thought that I had let ter get up and see what this all meant. The rebels had got a battery in position, and our Mica made u mwsi UAcniCill mill Ik IU1 LUC 111. (Our fires went out in a hurry.) They then tumid their gun son thetown, our forts immediately opened on them, and in a short time silenced them, and about daylight our men charged the battery and took it. We moved a little to the right, to avoid their shells, and about eight o’clock were ordered back to our position of the day before. About ten, they made a charge, and succeeded in getting half way through town before they were check ed and driven back. They had come up un der a most destructive fire from our forts, and say what you will, no men ever fought more bravely than did the rebels; but no man could stand the fire that was poured in npon them from the forts. Soon as they broke, our men sent up a yell and started alter them and drove them to the woods. We were then sent for ward and took our position in the advance line, and had they charged again, it might have been that your humble servant would not be here writing this; but they chose not to try it again, and about four o’clock Gen. Rosecrans rode along our lines and said Price and Van Dorn were in full retreat. The next day (Sunday) we started after them. Our di vision was the rear guard both going and com ing. We went as far as Bakersville, 10 miles from Ripley, and about 40 from Corinth; were gone from Sunday the Sth till Sunday the 12th. The rebels had left most everything. Guns, tents and all were strewn along the road for miles. We have taken a great many prisoners. Their killed and wounded is much greater than ours; the battlefield looked as though there was a difference of 5 to 1. We had a good lime both going and coming; had plenty of sweet potatoes, fresh pork, fresh beef anil chickens,—the latter was rather a scarce arti cle. We got back to camp Sunday night; Mon day afternoon we changed our camp, are about the same distance from town as before, aud about two miles from our old camp. With regard to the President’s emancipation proclamation, it meets with the hearty appro val of nearly all, and we are glad it has coine. To be sure there is a little fault found with it by some, but no man will fight any the less because it has come to that. (From our Regular Correspondent.] Letter from the State Capital.

Editors Press:—A concert was given last evening at Meionaon Hall, by the Musical Convention, which has been in session in this city for a few days, under the direction of Prof. E. H. Frost. It was well attended, and the performances were very creditable, nanic ularly those by Mr. Stauwood, the Misses Cushing, Bice and Sayw'ard, and especially the solo by Miss Lottie Swan, which was superbly executed, and gave great satislaclion. A repi tition of the concert will take place this eve ning The 21st, 24th and 28th regiments have all left the State within a few days. These regi ments are in New York, and are to constitute a part of the expedition now preparing under Gen. Banks. There are about seven hundred recruits for the old regiments now here in Camps Ualleek and McClellan. They will be forwarded to their respective regiments very soon. Arrangements are being perfected to obtain for the set vice the balance of the draft, by compelling town to make up their deliciencies. Skirmisher.

[For the Press.] Mispronunciation of English Words. It is well known that the initials J. X., over which an article on the Common Mispronun ciation of English Words” appears in this week’s Transcript, conceal a bad Latin joke, and are not to lie referred to any one of our distinguished citizens. Strangers sometimes make that mistake. It is well therefore to say, that J. X. means simply Josua Xovus, the Xew Joshua, who finds the world much less inclined to stand still at his command than at that of his ancient predecessor. Of course, men chose their poets, as they choose their wives,in youth; and no reasona ble man will require another to discard the friends of days gone by for new favorites. But why need J. X. try, as he did some mouths since, to convince us that Tennyson and Browning are not to be named with Scott and Byron Tennyson writes for this, as Scott for that, and as some coining poet will write for a future generation. The world does not and will not stand still, whoever cries iVlioa and its languages suffer change with it, and that is just what J. X. failed to observe in sea son to suppress his last communication to the Transcript. Thus he pronounces yeast, yest, forgetting for the moment that the present orthography of the word was deliberately adopted in prefer ence to yest, which in sound and form w as quite extinct in Smart’s time. He gives scath, (a as in that,) which both as a noun and a verb has been replaced in speech and writing by scathe. He gives artisan, with an accent on the last syllable (arti-san) which came over from France in the train ol William the Conqueror,, somewhere about the eleventh century; and decorous with an intonation (de-co-rous) fa miliar enough to Roman ears but rarely heard on this continent. He adheres to the ancient and vulgar pronunciation of cony, which he fiiit*11 rnnPii !imi fills* rim««• tint) r»f rhithps* I which lie calls cloze, lo-ing sight altogether of the relation between cloth and clothes. The traditional orthoepy of words related as in the last instance, cannot easily Ire overrid den by the whole troop of grammarians and lexicographers. We shall never call chicalry, tchicalry with J. X. and others, until the mem ory of the French checalarie, has faded out of the word. We shall never miscall howitzer, ho-witzer, so long as the English how- repro duces precisely the hau- in the original Ger man haubitze. Still less shall we name heath er, hellter w ith J. X'. as the sole existing au thority, while heath remains in the mother tongue; or sct-nic, scen-ic, while scene retains its present sound. We And revived that abominable attempt to write hypoth-enuse and pronounce hypot-enuse —a piece ol Quixotism akin to Webster's bridegoom and melasses. Neither of the three words are fairly derived from ’he origin al languages; nor is half the language for that matter. The formation of a new from au old i language is a process of melting down and re casting old vocables, and occasional distortion must be expected. Hypothenuse is not good Greek; but it is, and will probably continue to be, good English. Can any body tell us, why J. N. chooses to call phase, facet But this is growing tedious. There are a hun dred and fifty words, more or less, in J. N.’s list. We assert, and are ready to prove if it were worth the trouble, that one third of the I whole number are there mispronounced. This is no “Common Mispronunciation of English j Words.” It is too bad of J. N. to request his confiding youthful readers” to cut it out aud hang it up for daily reference. To be sure it would be as well to cut it out, if they intend to preserve this volume of the Transcript for j binding. K. W. i Annual Report of the “Association for the Relief of Aged, Indigent Women," The Board ol Managers of the “Association for the relief of Aged, Indigent Women” re spectfully submit their eighth annual report to their friends and the public. We are happy to rpcord that the unsettled state of our country has not, as yet, interfered with the comfort of the Home. The number of inmates continues the same as at our last auuual meeting, one having deceased at the age of eighty-three, her room being now oc cupied by another aged seventy-four. It may seem untimely to some of our friends to allude to a subject mentioned in our last report, but each succeeding year, as it passes, strengthens our conviction of the necessity of better ac commodations. A larger number of inmates might be received, and in some respects more comfortably supported, at a comparatively small increase of expenditure,had we a larger and more convenient house. At present,every room, even tlio-e in the attic, is constantly oc cupied by our family of eight inmates, leaving no spare room in case of sickness, which seems a necessity in every well regulated family. As the war progresses we know that the number of destitute and lonely ones will be constantly increasing, and some who are now in comfort able circumstances may at some future day be thankful to llud a refuge in our humble Home. And now, ere the trials of our afflicted coun try shall have so far diminished our resources as to deprive us of any of our luxuries—not to say comforts—we would ask if there are not some benevolent persons in our community who are ready and willing to aid us in obtain ing a larger and more convenient home for the aged and indigent, where those who may here after be left destitute can And shelter from Mie cold charities of the world. We would offer our grateful acknowledg ments to the kiud friend who gave a set mon for the benefit of the Home, and lor the con tribution received upon the occasion, also our Bincerc thanks for the gilt of a lot in the Western cemetery from one of the ladies of our Board, and to all others who have in any way colributed to the support and comfort of the Institution. More than all—we would reverently express our thanks to the widow's God and our Father in heaven, for his continu ed care and protection during the past year, and would invoke His aid ami guidance for the years to come.

If The Boston Post speaks of “McClel lan's bare-footed veterans.” It is an unpardoli ible sin in the Posts' estimation, to suggest a single fault in its favorite military commander, but it can squirt dirty water in the face of the whole government, and it is all very smart and pretty.

The Press —Its Progress. Believing that the readers of the Press feel an interest in its prosperity, we are disposed, in no boastful spirit, to give the figures indi cative of its progress for the last two months. The first uurnber was issued June 23d, and it has been issued regularly since, Sundays and the day alter the 4th of J uly excepted. Up to September 1st we felt grateful to the people of the State generally, and of this city particu larly, for their liberal encouragement, but siuce that time, with not a single canvasser ill the Held, its progress has been far beyond our j most sanguine expectations. For the two last mouths, over and above all discontinuances, we have made a net gain upon our subscrip tion lists as follows: Daily—For September,...169 For October,.241 Total for two mouths......410 Weekly—For September,.67 For October,... .04 Total for two mouths.151 Of these, 185 daily and 87 weekly subscrib ers, have paid iu advance. The foregoing does not include large additions made to our regular sales to uewspaper dealers. The daily list was never increasing more rapidly than at the present time. With this measure of success we can but leel gratilled. While it is a satisfaction to believe the general spirit and course of the paper are such as to meet with approbation, we are not insensible to the fact that it is less to any intrinsic merit iu the paper itself, than to the liberality of the community, ahd the suicidal course of another establishment, that the Press is indebted for its marked prosperity. We will only add that we shall labor hard to merit the favor of the public, and we have abiding faith that we shall receive at least as much as we shall deserve iu this regard. British Distress.—A paper has been late ly read before the British Association, on the distress iu Lancasshire arising from the want of cotton; the statistics of which show the singular result, that the number of deaths has decreased iu proportion as pauperism has increased. One cause is the presence ol the mother at home, who gives more care to her children than when-absent in the factory. Again, there is less excess from drinking, and it is clear that there has been, so far, no abso lute starvation, nothing seriously to impair the health of the operatives. The cotton on hand iu England and on the way, is more than equal to the average weekly consumption lor several mouths past; it is therefore felt that the crisis of the “cotton fa mine” has passed. The districts where cotton is not manufac tured have given more liberally to aid the suf ferers, than the cotton manufacturers them selves, who are are complained of for their illiberality, considering the enormous fortunes they have made out of the hard-worked oper atives.

The 2d jury was dismissed until Monday morning. Court adjourned to nine o'clock Saturday morning. Coroner's Inquest.—Coroner Gould was called upon yesterday to hold an inquest on the body of a man, picked up yesterday morning in the water at the South end of Vaugahu’s Bridge. Although the features were mutilated, the body was easily recognized as that of Mr. William Hall, an Englishman, who has long resided here, and whom many of our citizens will remember for the melody he, years ago, created in our streets, in singing “Sweep O,” when he followed the vocation of chimney sweeper. Mr. Hall ha* been missing since the 15th of October, on which day he paid a visit to the camp to see two of his sons who had culisted In the 25th regiment. It is supposed that on returning he accidently fi-U into the water, and the verdict of the jury was in accordance with that supposition. In addition to the two sons in the 25th, Mr. Hall had two other sons in the 13th Maine at Ship Island. Reai. Estate.—Within the past few weeks quite a demand has sprung up for real estate in this city, and sales to an amount exceeding $150,000 have taken [dace. Among the dwell ing-houses disposed of may be mentioned those of Hon. S. P. Shaw, on High street, Mrs. J. S. Little, State street, Mrs. E. M. Leavitt, Free street, Mr. Charles Frost, Winter street, S. R. Lyman, Free street, D. II. Furbish, Dan forth street, Sewail C. Chase, Pine street, and several others. Moses Gould, Esq., has also sold a large quantity of the Back Cove flats, and R. I. Robison three lots on Lincoln street. There has also been a larger demand for house rents this fall than has been know n for tw o years. The demand for stores is also increas ing. The plentiful supply ol money has caused capitalists to turn their atteutiou lately to reai estate, in preference to other modes ol invest ment. Death of a Soldier.—A. W. Sylvester, of Waterford, aged about 20 years, a private in tile Tth Maine regiment, died rather sudden ly Thursday morning at the City Hotel. He had been in the Philadelphia hospital since June, sick with chrouic diarrhoea. Saturday last he arrived in this city and put up at the City Hotel, where he had one of the best rooms, and every attention was paid to him by Mr. Dodge the landlord. He was not sup posed to be dangerously ill, but on Thursday morning, on going to his room to call him, he was found to be iu a dying condition, and in a short time he expired. The deceased com pi.tmcu Iiiuv.1 uic ucauui iJL ue ictt'iU'U Ul the Philadelphia hospital. His father came yesterday to convey the body to Waterford. So altered were the features that he was un able to trace any resemblance of his son. Uxiox Church.—The work of re-hoilding the Union Church, which was destroyed by fire last winter, has progressed so rapidly that the lecture room will be ready for occupation one week from to-morrow. This will be one of the finest rooms of the kind in this city The ceiling is painted in blue and stone colors, and beautifully frescoed in water colors. The side walls are of a flesh color. The other apartments in the basement are finished, ex cept the painting. In the church, the plaster ing and putty-work has all been done, and the painting will be commenced as soon as the walls are dry. The walls and ceiling are to be handsomely frescoed. Schumacher is doing the frescoeing in his usual fine style. The carpenters w ill commence putting in the pews as soon as the painting is finished. Divorces.—Petitions for divorce increase and multiply, especially in this county. There art? on the docket of the Supreme Judicial Court thirty-nine cases4or divorce, sixteen of which were entered at the present term. Fif teen of these libels were filed by husbands for divorce from their wives, and twenty-four by wives for divorce from their husbands. Six of these cases have been decided; three were dismissed from the docket—tw’o of them in consequence of neglect of the husbands to pay into Court certain sums of money ordered liy the Court to be paid in to help the wives sus tain a defence—and in three cases divorces have been decreed. Hiuii Heels.—We have heard of several accidents of late to ladies by reason of the weariug of high heeled l oots. On day before yesterday, a middle-aged lady up town caught the heel ol her boot in the projecting foot of a stove and fell to the floor, badly spraining her wrist, and yesterday a young lady fell from top to bottom of a flight of stairs on Middle street, sustaining a sprained ankle. A similar accident occurred to a young miss of this city, a short time ago, her heel caught in the car pet at the top of a flight of stairs, and she fell icnnui Ul tllCIII, UUl, U) il M l III III 2.. miracle, was not injured to a great extent. Horses for Government.—A train ol twenty-two cars, containing 264 horses for Government, purchased in this State, left Au gusta yesterday afternoon and passed through the city last night, on their way to Washing ton. The agents for Government, Assistant Quartermaster Briukerhoff, U. S. A., and George W. Bicker, Esq., of Augusta, are still engaged iu purchasing horses for the cavalry service. New Fruit.—Mr. R. G. Smith, of Cornish, presented us yesterday with some apples of the “Nodhead” species. They are the largest and fairest apples of this kind that we have 4 seen. Generally the “Xodheads,” though of delicious flavor, are small and knurly, but these raised by Mr. Smith are large and hand some. dF~The lecture by Rev. Mr. Lovering, to be repeated to-morrow evening, in Park street church, w us pronounced, by those w ho heard it at the Universalist church a few Sabbath evenings since, a very able and interesting dis course. All who attend, we dare say, Mill Hud themselves richly repaid. Three British, ships from Edinburgh, London and Liverpool arrived at this port yesterday. 1 TO THE Portland Daily Press. FROM WASHINGTON. Burning of the Ship Alleghanian by the Rebels. Texas and Louisiana Slaves sold in Cuba. The Destruction of the Rebel Sail Works. Movement of Rebel Troops, Washington, Oct. 31. The tug Leslie has arrived, bringing the seamen who were picked np in Chesapeake Bay on \V cduesduy by the steamer Daniel Webster. They state that they are a portion o! the crew of the ship Alleghanian, from Bal timore for Loudon, with guano. During Sun day she anchored below the mouth of the liap pahannock, where she remained until Tuesday night, hen a party of rebels, in boats carry ing about 75 each, some in uniform, ctune out of tlie Piatihatank and boarded her. The cap tain, male and pilot were taken prisoners, and transferred to the boats of the rebels, and the remainder of the crew put ashore. The rebels then set lire to the cabin of the ship, and left, taking their prisoners with them, and a boat containing about half the crew. Those w ho were brought up state that they escaped by reason of the darkness of the night. After floating about until daylight they were picked up by tlie Daniel Webster. The men on boaril the mortar schooner No. 7, some distance oil', saw the Hi e, and a boat’s crew was at once dis patched, who succeeded in extinguishing tlie (lames, but not until the after part of tlie ship I with mizzenmast was destroyed. Tlie Siar says: We Iwve reliable Information iroiii jjhj ues jusi iroin uua, mat tiie steamer i Blanche, on a late trip from Texas to the port j j of Mulatto, Cuba, carried in addition to her cargo of cotton, quite a number of Texan slaves, with their owners, who promptly sold them to Cuban planters. Also, that secesh families arriving from New Orleans and vicini ty, are bringing numbers of slaves. It will be remembered that the Blanche ran her cargo to Cuba under the British Hag, which is said for many years not to have covered a cargo of i slaves for the Cuban market. The Spanish man-of-war Btaseoe de Garay is said to have landed more or less of slaves, entering the is land from the vicinity of New Orleans. Commander Howell, of the gunboat Talio i ma, under date of Oct. 14. coast of Florida, reports to the Navy Department that on the Oth an expedition left lor the purpose of de mollsbing some rebel salt works on the main land. The expedition consisted of four boats from tiie Tahoina, and four from the Somerset, 1 numbering in all lUlinen. Two ol the boats had howitzers. Twenty or thirty armed guer illas wore pul to (light by shell, shrapnel and canister, with which the houses, woods and underbrush were showered. The men then lauded, deployed as skirmishers on eacli flank of tiie guns, and working parties destroyed the boilers of tiie salt works. Tiie houses in the immediate vicinity were tired, and the boats proceeded to tiie next station, where they also destroyed the boilers and buildings. Just af ter leaving tiie latter place tiie cars came, probably bringing reinlorceineuts, as tiie peo ple on the shore yelled and shouted, and tired some twenty shots at this boat, but none of them struck. The expedition was entirely I successful, destroying some 28 boilers, and burning to the ground all the buildings within their reach except two.

Caution to Xowspnpers publishing .llovoiiM-ntM of Troops. Old Pennsylvania Regiments to be Filled by Draft, Headquarters Army Potomac, I October 81st,Evening, In the moving of an army like this, too much caution cannot lie exercised by all lov ers of the Union, iu giving any information, the knowledge of which would be of service to the enemy. The location of divisions or corps, by tire fact of tiieir having moved, al though seeming of no importance to the peo ple of the North, is of vast benefit to the ene my, and might lie the means of unnecessarily sacrificing thousands of lives, and defeating the best disciplined army in this country. Newspapers are the medium l»y which the rebels obtain many tacts valuable to them, and those who have the control of them cannot be too cautious at the present time. Information as to tiie enemy’s position and movements is not objectionable. Stuart, with from 1,'60 to 2,000 cavalry, came in to-day from UiiiAn to Montville, ami attacked a small force of our cavalry, driving them toward Aldie. The old Pennsylvania regiments are to be filled up at once with dratted men. The order has been issued, and it is to lie hoped other States will follow this excellent example. It should he a matter of pride with every State not to send the greatest nutnlier of regiments to the field, but to keep those already in service in the most ellicieut condition. Ttiis can only be done by filling up old regiments. The Richmond papers received to-day an nounce the arrival iu that city of Gen. Bragg and slat!'. Various Items. New York. Oct. 31. Gen.

The gunboat Monlicello with its hose was pi tying upon the burning ship at 8 o’clock, when Capt. Dale left, and tin- lire appeared to be under subjection, it is generally believed here that the rebels had nothing to do w ith the affair, but that it was a case ol mutiny. Caney Island hospital was closed to-day. Arrest of a prominent Lawyer. St. Louis, Oet. 31. James It. Lackland, a prominent lawyer of this city, was arrested and committed to the military prison at noon to-dav by order of the Provost Marshal General. His arrest is con sequent upon a speecli delivered last night at the Democratic meeting held in the Court Hourse. In the order for Mr. Lackman's ar rest. he is charged w ith encouragement of the rebellion by publicly opposing the Govern ment in its efforts to suppress the rebellion by publicly abusing the Government ami loyal people of the United States, and defending the rebellion by charging its origin to have been w ith the people of the loyal States, and by publicly depreciating the paper currency of the country.

Burnside and Sigel’3 Corps—Lee’s army. PiIII.ADEI.PHIA, Oct. 31. The Washington Star oi tills evening says Gen. Burnside has already advanced dowu along the eastern base of the Blue Ridge, and forced a practical junction with Gen'. Sigel, their lines of pickets joiuiug. The rebels continue to occupy tiie ridge be tween Harper's Ferry and Winchester, on which Gen. Lee posted his army after crossing into Virginia. We believe he is moving as fast a> he can, as Burnside and Fitz Jobu Porter hav e already defeated ills probable scheme of attempting to surprise Sigel. To cover it promptly he will have to move back towards Richmond. Position of the Rebels. New York, Oct. 31.

MISCELLANY. KATE OSBOKN E’S LLOPb.U EH 1. Sweet K ite Osborne I She was, indeed, a beauty alter birr own heart. Picture to your self, reader, a gentle, loviug, affectionate crea ture, with those rich dark eyes, that appear in their almost fathomless depth, when they can be persuaded to allow you to gaze into them, between the long heavy lashes, as thick, aud almost as long (and this is a rare attraction) on the lower eyelids as on the upper. There was a spice of fun, withal, in those wonderful eyes, that showed itself, spite of all efforts to keep it dowu; aud gave evidence that sweet Kate, gentle as she was, was not without her power of self defence, to be used on occasion. But the occasion wa sure I shall,” replied my com panion, with most provoking nonchalance. I scarcely knew whether to laugh «•r Ik? an gry. I looked hack to our party, intending to appeal to some one lor succor, hut my daring lover had already placed a couple of miles be tween us and them. Mr. Lorrimer,” I said, assuming a decent degree of indignation, for I was too much tak en by surprise really to feel it, this is an un heard of indignity.” No, Miss Osborne, it is simply an elope ment.” I was silent. The day was splendid; our rapid motion, as we flew through the air, de lightful; and I resdved to await the issue of the adventure. We soon arrived at a pretty rural vi luge, where we changed horses w ith out leaving tne eui.iage. and I found that Mr. Lorrimer itad hired relays of post horses at every stage. Tints traveling with a very agree able degree of speyd, towards nightfall we reached the pleasant little town of Here tny abductor conducted me to the best hotel, where lie had already engaged a double set of apartments. "Miss Osborne,” he said, as he led me into a large old-fashioned room overloooking a gar den. "I do not intend to lie an intruder. But you must be hall'tarnished. Permit me to or der you some dinner—the best the house can afford.” "It is highly necessary,” I replied, somewhat sullenly. “You require a proof of my love. I have given you the best in tny power by rutting a way with you.” "A tine proof! Any one else could have done as much.” "Then why did no one else think of doing so? But I have yet to give you a proof of my esteem, and this I do by retiring. Sutler me to pay my respects to you in tile mot tling.” "Go now, then,” said I, half laughing. He leil tne; and the next morning we were m irried. This is the whole story of my abduction. It was a dangerous frolic. I must confess, and you will he better pleased witli what follows. I have persuaded my husband to buy Grange H ill, and we intend to settle down among you and eschew tile lollies ol that gay world which suit his leelings no I letter than they do mine. Titus ended Kate's narrative. Tne happy couple are living among us yet, a veritable Darliv and Joan, surrounded by a large family of lovely children. Highly popu lar among their lieigliliors, their chief joys are in the attractions and pleasures of a home, celebrated through the w hole country for hos pitality, and considered as u model home for all young couples. Such is tlie pleasant sequel to Kate Os borne's singular elopement. FOR THE WEARY. andeFson’s SPRING BED BOTTOM! Patent gianted October, 1862. xD. K. Frolioclc, GENERAL AGENT.

The boy was put un der the care oI Dr. B.. and after great pa tience and perseverance, with hi* electrical treatment and with other curatives, he was able to lift his eye lids, when it w as discovered that a liaise membrane had formed and covered the entire eves. This was removed by Dr. Boynton, and the boy’s eye-sight is now entirely restored, and his eyes stronger than ev er before. This should be known to all persons who are similarly afflicted. Although I understand that the Doctor lias lor many years, iu his operations on these delicate organs—the eye and ear. met w ith em inent success, he ha* not deeined it necessary to keep b’azing before the public his surgical skill in* this par ticular part of hi* profession, hut ha* been silently performing cures, many of them of a remarkable character.” crr ttobbintton, t a!ait, st.
