(From the Oshawa, Canada, Vindicator.] Mr. Moffat's Lectures. Bro. Moffat has just concluded his course of lectures in our County, and on the whole they have been a brilliant success. Every where the brethren testify that they never lis tened to such lectures before. On last Friday night he gave the closing lecture in this place. The hall was crowded to its utmost capacity, and though Mr. Moffat was so worn down by his labors that it seemed almost impossible for him to speak when he first commenced, yet he held that vast audience, many of whom were standing, in breathless attention for over an hour and a half, and closed with an original aud brilliant peroration that thrilled like an electric shock through every heart. We un derstand that Bro. Moffat intends returning to Canada again, and making it his permanent home, and we hope the Sons, aud all friends of j Temperance, will rally arouud him and sustaiu him in his noble efforts, else he may leave us as he did before, worn down by toil and crush ed by poverty. Bro. M. is a man that will win laurels in any laud. We got a peep at his scrap book, and to show that we have not formed too high an estimate of his powers, we give a few of the many notices of the press which he received while travelling in the neighboring Republic:— The South Carolina Son of Temperance says:—“What shall we say of Moffat; the pat- i ois upon whose tongue proclaims him to be from the classic land of ‘Scots wha ha’ wi’ I Wallace bled.’ At one time the touching mel ody of his voice in sympathy with surtering humanity, drew tears from all, and again each manly heart burned with indignation, as in terribly vivid language he depicted the wrongs inflicted on our race by the rum curse. But who can do justice to Moffat? Not us, and we forbear the attempt.” The Spirit of the Age, North Carolina. «ays: “Those who neglected to go and hear Moffat have missed a treat that perhaps they may never have the opportunity to get again. We had heard all the stars of the Temperance Re form, but such genial humor, such beautiful noetic allusions, anti such transcendent, nero rations, we never beard combined in one speech before. Without fear of contradiction, we pronounce Moffat one of the greatest of living orators.” The ChristUn Star awl Herald says;—“We have heard Moffat, the great temperance ora- j tor, and though our expectations were raised to a pretty higli standard, they were more than realized. Moffat does not make so much dra matic display as Gough, but in classic purity of style, poetic beauty of composition, and ter- j rible power of denunciation, he far excels him.” Mr. Moffat is now in Durham County .where he commenced a course of lectures, in Bow manville, on Monday evening. He will next go to Toronto and Kingston, and to Portland, Maine, and will spend most of the winter lec turing in the latter State. He will probably return this way to his home, in Ohio, near j Cincinnati, in the Spring, when he promises to 1 give the public a brief sketch of his life previ ous to entering the lecturing Held, which will serve to show that he has no small cause to cry out unceasingly against the drinking usa ges of society, atid the sale of alcoholic poi son, throughout this Christian land. EF-A Botanical Medallist and Prizeman of King’s College, London,” writes to the Times: —”At this juncture a number of ingenious and well-intentioned inventors step in and declare that we have in our own country stores of 11- I bres which may be transformed into a mater- j ial of the same nature as cotten. I have ob tained samples of most of the fibres proposed as substitutes, and 1 have submitted them to careful examination under high powers of the microscope. I find them all to be varieties of woody fibre, more or less split up and divided, varying In length and thickness of the fibriltee. The fibres of all the specimens I have seen are nevertheless uniform in the following particu lars:—They are all solid, inelastic (or brittle), with joints and rough edges, showing where the bundles of JtbrillrE have been torn apart. Having some practical acquaintance with cot ton-spinning and weaving, I assert that the above qualities render woody fibre unfitted to be used as a substitute for cotton.unless a very considerable modification be made in our cot ton machinery. The fibres which have been exhibited may probably be useful as substitutes for linen if they can be largely! produced at a cheap rate; but the woody fibre (from which all the proposed substitutes are drawn) can never be used under the same condition as cot ton, which consists of vegetable hairs, hollow, elastic, ribbon-shaped, and spiral, with smooth edges and surfaces. If we want a perfect sub stitute for cotton we must not look for it in a woody fibre,” Mr, Harben, the gentleman who commis sioned his lawyers, Messrs. Philips and Son. to announce to the world, through the medium of an influential London paper, the fact that he had discovered a substitute, has been in Manchester, and had an interview with the Chamher of Commerce in that city: but the result is less encouraging than could be wished. The material which he proposes is one largely used by upholsterers for bed and sofa stuffing, called alva, or grass-wrack, better known to botanists as the Zostero Jlfarina, which abounds on the shores of rivers,_a species of sea-weed, much used in Sweden as a ma nure, nnd which pigs and horses are said to I eat. The stems are branched, two or three feet long, and Mr. Harben contends that the fibre might readily be rendered available for cotton spinning purposes,—.n opiniou, howev er, which has yet to be substantiated. ihe Iwo oices.—Fernando Wood, Dem ocratic candidate for Congress, recently said in an elctioneering speech: I “He believed the South is still devoted to the Union, and that she will come back to the Union if we treat her kindly and extend to her the rule of a Democratic administration. If he should be elected, he would endeavor to Stamp such a policy upon the actions of the Administration. The election of Seymour would make the Administration tremble. This war must be settled by concessions on both sides. There must be conciliation. There must lie yieldidg by both sections of the coun try. W e cannot do this by generals in the field, but by our representatives in Congress. Non-combatants must settle this unfortunate war. We must elect men of the Democratic party if we expect to have this bloodshed ter minated. The Democracy alone can do it.” On the other hand, hear what Col. Hamilton, fresh from the rebel rule in Texas, and pro foundly conversant with all the secret springs of the rebellion, says: “There were those in our midst who pro posed to overcome the rebellion by extending the hand of friendship to the disloyal people of the South—to bear down upon them in gal lant array, with the sword held back in the right hand, and the olive-branch foremost in the left. Why, the people of the South had again Hud again passed resolutions that they would nevei treat with the Government of the United States for peace upon any terms but independence, not only for the slates engaged in the rebellion, but as to those still true and loyal, where the institution of slavery existed. And they had manifested by their action that, they were in serious, sober, desperate earnest ness to make good their declaration. These gentlemen who talked about conquering with the olive-branch, he would ask who it,was they supposed they had to conqner at the South Did they want to Icing the olive branch to the down-trodden tnillons who are beseeching the Throne of grace for help and relief from the tyranny under which they are groaning? Be not deceived. These wanted to sec us come armed cap-a-pie, with swords and bayonets. They wanted to see us come with power to strike the manacles from their limbs, and they would rush to meet us more than half way, and embrace us with tears and joy.” An Intelligent Negros Opinion.—A j correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, from Jackson, lean., describes a contraband guide: Aleck’s idea of tile cause of the war, it* probable results, the best mode of action for the negroes, and the real value of the present change in their situation, and iu fact of every thing relating to the war, were remarkably shrewd and mature. Aleck does not look like a negro. He is not darker than many white men, and his features have but little of the negro cast. Said he, “I want to see this country come down. You cau't bring them down, Mr. without you ruin them.— I’ride built them up, and nothing but poverty will bring them down. You may take away everything that they have hut their darkies, and they stand it very well; but as soon as you take a nigger they begin to weep and wail, j and gnash their teeth. You take the ground right out from under them. If you take cot- j ton they can plant more. If you take horses and mules they can get more. So with corn, i and all kinds of produce. But you take a J nigger, and you cut off their supply. The nigger is the producing machine. He turns °*t everything. If you take him away it is like taking the principal; ami if you only take cotton, it is like taking only the interest more will come next year. Then their pride is in it, too. They hate to lose a slave; it makes them mad. They tell us all sorts of foolish Stories almut the Yankees. But I tell the nigger folks about me they ain’t true.— Why, the Yankees are the smartest people in —-1-1. VI...-1-- all our tool*, mid clothes, and everything.”— “Do you think you would be any better off,” I asked, “if the Yankees should conquer and occupy this country?” “Well, I don’t know, said he; “we can't be any worse off. I tell all the colored people about here if they have got good homes they had I vet ter stay where they are till the thing is settled. They can’t be any worse off, and if they run off they have no homes, and perhaps can't get work; and if they go North they don’t understand the country, and it is too cold. "TnE Financial Prospect.—Some of the democratic orators and presses, in order to prove the administration a failure, are exag gerating the financial difficulties of the gov ernment. Such efforts tend to promote the very evils they pretend to deprecate. Mr. Forney wiites to the Philadelphia Press some counteracting statements:— “The financial future of the government is singularly encoring. No subject has been used with more deleterious effect against the admin istration than that of taxation, except, indeed, the dimensions of the national war debt. The secretary of the treasury has been forced to submit in silence to the misrepresentation of the adversaries of th war, and experienced observers have seen with pain the success of these misrepresentations. If the rebellion was a novelty, all the expedients believed to be es sential to its extinction were experiments. We could not stand by and see the rebellion progress without resorting to the severest al ternatives for its annihilation. And now that the period is at hand, when this great revolt against human freedom is to lie checked and closed out, we may also anticipate, in practi cal results, a satisfactory solution of that great financial experiment which has disturbed Hie wisest ami most experienced statesmen in this and ottier countries. The time has indeed not arrived, when the fruits of the revenue meas ures of Congress may be accurately set forth. Enough is known, however, to enable careful observers to state that the tax bill, judging from the reports already received at the treas ury, will produce an almost incalculable rev enue—a revenue sufficient to pay the interest on the public debt itself, and to leave a large margin for the necessary expenses of the gov ernment as long as the war continues. One very competent autboritty suites that the revenue derivable from the tax system w ill exceed by at least fifty per cent the amount contemplated by sanguine framers of the bill. It is true that much alarm has lieen created by the late extravagant premiums on gold, and by the consequent deprivation of the national curency: but if the expectations of the head of the treasure board, upon results already as certained, are only partially fulfilled, this a larm will be speedily and happily dissipated. One filet must not lie forgotten, that while labor must, for a short time, submit to the loss occasioned by a depreciated currency, and hence to the inflation of the prices of many of the necessaries of life, there will be little of direct taxation upon labor, and the capital must bear the immediate burdens of the war. Why should not those who work at home be as tree to suffer for their country as those who fight lor us in the Southern States? The ill- j liux of money into the treasury in the shape of taxes upon luxuries, salnries, remunerative real estates, bonds, checks, and all descriptions of hills, leaving small farmers and operatives almost entirely unscathed, indicates a wonder tul revenue. An intelligent assessor in the city of New York says that Iroin all these sources in that metropolis and Brooklyn alone, a net revenue of one hundred millions will be secured. And if this is so of a single locality, what may we not expect from the country at large? I oppose these healthy and cheerlul (acts to that traitorous disaffection Which, w hile refusing to denounce the rebel lion, busies itselt in deceiving the free people of the tree States, and in weakening our pub lic servants at the head of the administration and the federal government.

THE DAILY PRESS. PORTt.AND. MAINE. Saturday Morning, Not. 8, 1802. The Portland Daily Press has the largest regular circulation of any daily paper in the city. Editorial Correspondence ot the Press. Visit to the American Asylum for the Deaf and Dumb. Hartford, Ct. Nov. 5,1862. We have just returned from au exceedingly interesting visit to the American Asylum. This noble institution is one of which not on ly Connecticut but the whole nation may well be proud. A deep impression was made upon all of us of the magnitude and extent of the blessings conferred by this beneficent institu tion upon the unfortunate class of children com mitted to its care. None but beneficial influ ences are exerted upon its pupils, and besides the traiuing of the school-room, there is con stantly exercised over them a mild, paternal anil strict moral disclplne. The pupils are al.o trained to habits of industry. Certain hours, morning and evening, are devoted to labor. The boys are taught some useful trade, and the girls are prepared for the duties of domestic life. We were conducted through every part of the institution, through the school-rooms, the sleeping rooms, and places for amusement, and everywhere we noticed neatness, order and system. We could not help remarking especially the happy and smilng countenances of the pupils,and they do not seem to feel that they ars so very uufortu ate in being deprived of one important sense and one iinportaut fac ulty. There is a cabinet shop connected with the institution where some of the more robust and ingenious boys are taught how to make com mon furniture. Another class work in the shoe shop, and still another class of the smal Cl UUJS auu tuc laigci shop which is under the supervision of Miss Margaret Greenlaw, fonnesly of Deer Isle in our own state. At nine o’clock every morn ing the pupils all assemble in the chapel where a verse of Scripture is explained and a short prayer made by the Principal, after which they repair to the several school-rooms. This morning the usual services were varied some what. Gov. Washburn and suite, the Presi dent ol the institution, the venerable Ex-Gov. Ellsworth, and the various ollicers of the Asy lum were seated on the platform in front of the pupils. Gov. Washburn aud suite were introduced to the President by Mr. Turner, who welcomed the visitors in brief and appro priate terms, to which Gov. W. responded iu his usual happy style. The idea of making a speech before an audience of deaf mutes was somewhat novel but they all heard or rather taw the speeches, as they were all repeated to them in theirown pautomimic language by Mr. Bartlett^ one of the teachers, aud at the close they exhibited their appreciation of the Gov.’s speech by giving three cheers for the State of Maine, which, next to Prussia, provides most liberally lor the education of this unfortunate class of her children. Here the beneficiaries from our State were called that wc might see them all. We are now sup porting thirty-three children here which is somewhat less than the usual number, although several who have been admitted have uot yet arrived. For these, the State pays one hun dred dollars each per annum—the large fund of the institution enabling the trustees to pay the balance. ThsKstimated cost ol the board and tuition of each pupil for one year, is one hundred and eight dollars. _„.u we visited after ^^uorinauce In o a brief remark found in the Portland Transcript of Aug. 2U, relating to Gen. Butler and Gen. Phelps. The Transcript says, “Gen. Butier, who quarreled with Gen. Phelps because he wanted to arm the negroes, is now organizing regiments of free blacks, in Xew Orleans.”— Mr. C. says, “Gen. Butler aud Gen. Phelps have never quarreled, much less upon the sub ject of arming the negroes. When Gen. Phelps left tile Department of the Gulf, he re marked to several officers* who went on board the steamer to take leave of him, that, as to j Gen. B., he had ever treated him like a gen tleman that they differed on some points in military matters, hut that he believed the General's iutentions were good aud loyal, and that he was the right man in the right place. 1 The real cause of difference between these j Generals was the refusal of Gen. P. to obey the orders of his superior officer, aud hence his resignation, which Gen. B. did not accept, hut which President Lincoln did, and there the matter ended.

Why don’t those “conservative” gen tlemen who have so much concern for the ef- j feet of tlie proclamation upon the “border Mutes,” explain how it happens that in the j “border States” “radical emancipation” seems j to be popular. Missouri lias spoken as well as j Xew York, and even Frank Blair is deleated by an emancipationist, (Blair, though a Repub- liean, opposed emancipation.) Another of kindred views is elected near by him, while in the Spriuglield district—hard down towards the line of Arkansas—a “radical emancipa tionist” is reported elected to Congress. In deed, it looks as though the proclamation is triumphantly sustained in that “hol der Mate.” This is a siguilicant fact, aud we ask our read ers to note it. ORIGINAL AND SELECTED. Thanksgiving in Kliode Island Nov. 27. J3J"" Thus far, Thanksgiving in all the loyal States where the appointment has been made, is assigned for the 27th of this month. Massachusetts in 328 towns east 79,000 votes for John A. Andrew, and 53,721 for Gen. Devens. The Maine Fanner mentions that sev eral fine blocks of new stores are nearly com pleted in Augusta. The Aroostook Times says that a great many mechanics are leaving St. John, N. B., Ibr the higher wages paid in the Suite. Z fF' The Lewiston Journal says that Jacob Cox, of East Hebron, has six sons in the ar my. They are all three years’ men. Mr. James F. Otis, of Kittery, has been appointed Acting Ensign in the U. S. Navy. gy-Washington Robertson, who was taken prisoner at the first Bull Run fight, and re leased, has again returned home to Bethel sick. gyThe Bridgton* Reporter speaks of the unwonted activity of the shook business in Bridgton and vicinity. ~{f Lieut. Marston of Co. D, 18th Maine regiment, has been compelled to resign hi* commission on account of continued ill-health. The registered and enrolled tonnage of the District of Portland, for the year end ing Sept. 3 t, 1802, is 132,240 tons. Total im ports $18,740. Exports $08,323—as we learn from the Price Current. We agree ]>erfeetly with the Bangor Times in relation to corrupt appointments and corrupt contractors, but we can see neither fitness nor friendship in its senseless fiing at the Press. A private letter, received from an offi cer in the 18th Maine regiment, states that tho regiment has lost 24 men by death since they went out of the State, and that there are now 300 names on the sick list. The Rockland Democrat learns that Gen. Berry has not yet regained his health.— He has endeavored to keep with his brigade, i.i.♦ i.*-v I.,.,,-,, u «n,i attend to his health. Fibe at South Paris.—The stable belong ing to Mr. James Dennett, at South Paris,took tire, Saturday afternoon last, and was burned to the ground. A shed, connecting with the house, was torn down, and the Are confined to the building In which it caught.—[Deal. The Advertiser is sorry for the elec tion of Ben. Wood. We don't see why, for Wood advocates precisely the doctrines that have of late been seen in the light of the “stray gleam of tire” that has been kindled up in the columns of that paper. Fire.—An old house situated on White st., near the covered bridge in this city, owned by the Saco Water Co., and occupied by Dennis Morgan, Mathew Brannau, and Michael Ed wards, as tenants, wat, burned down, last Tues day night, about 11 o'clock. [Biddelord Union. Fire in Newrurg.—On Saturday morning last a large and valuable barm belonging to Mr. Solomon Newcomb, at Centre Newburg, was de-troyed by tire, together with 45 tons of hay, 500 bushels of grain, one yoke of ox en, three cows, and a horse. His dwelling house, near by, was saved by the great exer tions of his neighbors. The iusurauce is only $175.—[Bangor Whig. XA recent copy of the Richmond Dis- j patch says; “An invasion is designed to which all we have -ceil of invasion is mere child's play. We speak it—not for the purpose of creating unnecessary alarm—but to w arn our people of wlmt they have to expect, and to prepare them lor the occasion.” £y The Argus is entirely mistaken if it supposes we have the slighted feeling of jeal ousy because of its having an occasional ad We are glad to see such evidences of the lib erality of the administration, and we alluded to the fact only to illustrate the correctness of a proposition which that paper had disputed. Appointment M. D. L. Lane.Esq., Judge of the Municipal Court in this city, has been appointed Consul at Yera Cruz, in place of Hon. Mark H. Dunuell resigned. Judge Lane will resign bis prsenl situation and proceed to Yera Cruz immediately. The appointment of a Judge, until the annual municipal elec- i tlon next spring, devolves upon the Governor. X Those who have read both papers on the election, could not fail to see that the Ar gus has been much more modest over the re sult than its more ardent co-worker, the Ad vertiser. This in to l>e attributed, no doubt, to recant conversion, as new converts are al waps more zealous than those who have borne the burdens of many a hard fought battle. XA gentleman’s black kid glove has been left at the Advertiser office, and the editor begs for its mate. He is doubtless making preparation for tlmt “expensive funeral.” If a single‘glove w ill not meet the wants of all thw I mourners, it will be sufficient for any oue of I them, as no one will be silly enough to put on i mure than I ml f'.in/ui t*n ttwv “IT* There is one consolation left for print ers: Tlie increase in the price of paper, the three per cent, tax on advertisements, the tax on printing material and the greater telegraph ic tolls, will leave them no income, and so they will escape the income tax!* No great loss without some small gain.—[Advertiser. Our neighbor of the Advertiser can draw consolation’’ from auother fact—that the “in- 1 come tax” does not apply to papers of small j circulation! “y Referring to the sad cose of supposed suicide at Berwick, the Biddeford Union learns “that some doubts are entertained as4o wheth er Miss Seays came to her death by commit- J ting suicide. It lias been asceitained that the route she pursued was quite circuitous and not direct to the river, and there is reason to sup pose that, iuboring under temporary insanity, caused by her bodily sufferings, she jumped from the window and wandered off' uncon scions of w hat she was doing, aud accidental ly fell into the river.” :y Nothing like modesty, and sinking one’s self in a great and holy cause. A city colemporary said yesterday morning, We foresaw the storm that was arising to sweep the Republican party from power if a conser vative policy was rejected, and so we coun selled moderation. Our counsels were over borne, and a radical policy adopted.” The inference from the above is, if the writer had not seen that radicalism would sweep the par- i tyfrom power, he would not have counselled moderation. His “counsels” all hinge on party effect, not on principles—their truth or their falsity! Is this it? Gen. Jameson.—The Bangor Whig has a fine notice of the late Gen. Jameson, which closes as toliows: Gen. Jameson was tin active business man previous to the war, in the lumber manufac ture and trade, and enjoyed the esteem of 1 those with whom he associated in all the walks of life. He was a democrat, and although uot what is called a trained or active politician,he ably represented his party in the Charleston Convention, standing out to the end for the nomination of Mr, ltonglas, and resisting all the assaults of the slaveoeracy in that Conven tion. Since the war broke out, he has twice served as the standard bearer of the Union democrats in our State elections, although the honor was entirely unsought by him, and would have been declined had he consulted his own I modest feeling* and wishes. £2F“\Ve admire to see a person think a good deal of himself; and no one can blame a man for praising his own wares when they stand sadly in need of praise—when almost every one else is decrying them. For such reasons we commend the Advertiser for publishing I puffery of Itself, ami trying to extract com fort from a sugar-plum thrown to it by a cor- respondent, probably some friend in the Ar- i gus office. Yesterday’s paper contains an ar- tide telling a wonderful story of a Massachu- j setts “conservative Republican,” who admires that paper, and who said, referring to its won derful editorials of late, that “it was altogeth er astonishing what a stray gleam of fire we lmd got down here in the Advertiser—full of spirit, good taste, and every way up to the times,” and who also said, “Let Portland sup port it for its own reputation.” And then the writer says: “And here let me say that, even if there were nothing else involved, the good taste of our city ought in some way to deliver us from the vapid ebullitions of the journalistic parre nu, and most slovenly adventurer, who now exhibits his ignorance in the columns of the Press.” That is the style. Perhaps this is a “gleam of the tire” referred to above. “The good taste of our city” lias its own way of respond ing. however; and while it is knocking off the quires from the Advertiser’s pile of papers, it is adding to the daily list of the Press at the rate of more than lifty a week! From our Regular Correspondent. Letter from the State Capital. Augusta, Nov. 7, 1802. Eilitorn Prem: The following appoint ments in the Third Regiment, have been made since iny last: Co.

Various War Items. Xew York. Xov. 7. The following is a special dispatch to a morning paper: Headquarters, Gainstille, Va.—Another at tempt was made this afternoon to drive in our pickets stationed a few miles beyond Xew Bal timore. This time a large force advanced to the attack, hut coming within the range of our guns, a lew well directed shot caused them to change their front to rear. Yesterday a scouting party under Captain Koeing. from this division, proceeded as far as Upperville, where a portion of Gen. McClel lan’s force w as formed. Ou their return, uear White _Plains, they Ewell’s division; also two men belonging to a brigade of rebel cavalry comprising the 1st, 3d. 5th. Oth and 0th Virginia, which torce had passed through White Plains hut a short time previous. A party of cavalry bearing dispatches from Gen. McClellan’s headquarters, captured a major belonging to the same brigade, who Imd wandered from the force to look after his property near Aldie, and was on his return. Yesterday an orderly from Gen. Schurz’s division was tired upon twice from a house in Havmarket, as he was passing through the town. In retaliation for this outrage, it Is supposed, the town was burned to the ground, with the exception ol a few out buildings. Brilliant Viotory over Stuart’s Cavalry. Headquarters Army of Potomac, I Kectortown, Va., Xov. tjtli, 10 P. M. As tile particulars ol the tight yesterday at Barbers become known, the more brilliant the victory is found to have been. The battle was fought by cavalry alone, and between the best disciplined troops either ar my can province. The rebels w ere under the command of Gen. Stuart, and the Federals under command of Gen. Pleasanton. The Huai result shows that the rebels left thirty-six dead on the Held, and their wounded must have been numerous. Our loss was live killed and ten wounded. Gen. Pleasanton Ueday reports that Stone wall Jackson occupies Chester Gap with his Command. From Fortress Monroe. Fortress Monroe, Nov. 5. Mrs. Piggott, son, three daughters, and slaves, were arrested on Wednesday last liy the rebels, and taken to Klcltinoud. Mrs. Pig gott is a widow lady residing nine miles above Williamslmrgh, and sister of Judge X,. J. Bow den. Her only offence, as far as known, is that her brother is a Union man. Measures are being tukeu which will lead to (lie libera tion of tiie family. The flag of truce steamer Express took 13d rebel prisoners, mostly badly wounded, to Ai ken’s Landing to-day. Tiie French consul at Richmond was also on board. Federal Occupation of Warrenton. Gainsvii.le, Va., Nov. 7. The corps of General Reynolds, la-longing to Gen. McClellan’s command, took possession of Warrenton yesterday. The rebels evacuat ed tiie place without shopping to tight. An investigation of the conflagration at Ilaymarket, lias resulted in the conviction of two men of Gen. Sleinlier's eoiimftnd. A court martial has beeu ordered, which met to day to try tiie cases. It is intensely cold to-niglit. This morning a snow storm commenced, the tlrst of the season. Thieves at Willard’s—Army Clothing. New York. Nov. 7. Special dispatches Iroin Washington say that thieves have been busy ut Willard s Hotel re cently. A day or two since Gen. Hunter’s trunks were broken into, hut tiie burglar was interrupted, uud loll in such haste as to secure nothing. A recent report relative to army clothing, states that over a million dollars worth of worthless clothing has been rejected by the examining officials of the army appointed by Gen. McClellan. Arrest of a Supposed Traitor. Louisville, Nov. C. A man calling himseif John W. Lee, from Knoxville, Tenn., pretending to be loyal, lias been again arrested by Gen. Boyle, lie hud over $100,(XX) with him. which were taken and held for the action of tiie authorities ut Wash ington. Lee says the money belongs to loyal parties in Augusta, Georgia. Tiie military authorities think there is something wrong in tiie matter. Steamship Scotia off Fire Island. New York, Nov. 7. Tiie steamship Scotia, from Liverpool 2oth and Queenstow n 20th, is reported liy a pilot as having been below last night, off Fire Island, and a pilot was put on board. The wind was blowing heavy from the eastward. The gale has jwobably obliged her to keep off. Gen. Dow and Confiscation. An officer in the 13th Regiment, writing from I’ensacoia to the Bath Times, says: The arrival of Gen. X‘-al Dow to take com mand of tile troops ill West Florida was hailed with pleasure by nearly every officer and sol dier in Pensacola. Although, from hi* rigid adherence to the principles of Temperance, he has many enemies in this Departmunt, there are hut few who do not look upon him with confidence, and consider him an officer of a bility. While lie lias had command here, mat ters have been conducted in a manner which re licet great credit upon the ability and integri ty of the General, and have won for him many friends. Gen. Dow is an ardent admirer of the “confiscation act,” and anything which the rebels possess that would he of advantage to us, he is determined to appropriate. Immedi ately upon his arrival heie, he set about the work of confiscation, not only in the city, but the neighbouring towns, appropriating every available article. The writer describes the modus operondi of confiscation by relating an incident. Col. Mur ray with a proper compliment of men, was or dered to proceed to Bagdad, 30 miles from Pensacola. His expedition embarked in steam ers and anchored within three miles of Bag- dad at 2 o'clock in the morning ol Oct. 17th. Col. Murray dispatched Lieuts. Sliorcy, of the Me. 15th, and Stuart, of ,the Hist N. Y. j with forty men. to proceed quietly, in small j row-boats, to take possession of the town, and place a guard upon all the roads leading from 1 the place, in order to prevent the escape of any of tin- inhabitants. The party arrived just before daylight, and when the inhabitants i arose they found themselves snugly caged, with Yankee soldiers pacing about in their front yards, protecting their property. Soon after daylight the two steamers arrived, and j tlie town of Bagdad was “takenwithout firing a gun. One house, the proprietor of j which was a prisoner at Fort Pickens, was found elegantly furnished with all the splen dor which wealth could ntford, and we left the i house entirely vacant. Among other vain- j aides taken at tills house, was a safe contain ing some $20,0011 in gold! The furniture taken alone at Bagdad and Arcada, could not he purchased for $35,000, and the cattle, wagons, barouches, fire engines, *c., together with 1 $20,000 in gold, must swell the result of the day's recoiluoisance to something like $75,000 in round figures! California lias appointed the 27th Inst, for Thanksgiving. SPECIAL NOTICES. DR. II. L. DAVIS, of Boston, associated with Dr. J.

Jacob Marsh was brought up on a com plaint charging him with larceny. It appeared that he went into Atw ood’s Oyster Saloon, and, after partaking of the excellent bivalves to be found there, pocketed the silver fork. His guilt was conclusive, the fork being found up on him. Judge Lane ordered him to fork-over one dollar and costs of prosecution, the whole amounting to $3,26.—rather dear for one iness of oysters. Samuel S. Bryant was conplaiued of a« hav ing committed an assault and battery on Mrs. Eliza Merrill. The parties reside in Scarboro, at which place the assault is alleged to have been committed. The examination was some what protracted. J. W. Dana, Esq., appeared for the prosecution, and J. II. Williams, Esq., for the defence. Judge Lane decided that there had been a technical assault committed, and fined the defendant one dollar and costs. A Model Vestry.—The vestry of the Central Church,late Union, has liven completed and it will be occupied for religious services to-morrow. It is, without exception, the neat est and prettiest room of the kind in this city. It will accomodate about 500 nersons seated. Is handsomely carpeted, lighted with tight gas branches containing 24 burners, and furnished with a handsome black walnut desk covered with crimson damask. In the recess, back of the desk, is the book ease and church library. Oil the right side of the recess, in raised shield is the inscription: “And the children cried saying—Hosanna to the Son of David; Blessed Is no. that coineth in t,ho name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.” On the left side— “And Jesus said, Sutler the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not, for of such is the kingdom of Heavdn.” On the wall at the right of the desk is the inscription— “Behold the Lain!) of God, which takctli away the sin of the World." Oil the left wall— “Whoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.” On the side ami eud walls of the room are these inscriptions in raised shields—“Come unto me all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.” “Peace on Earth and good will toward men.” “We love him because he first loved us.”— “Quench uot the Spirit,” “Be of oue mind.” i “Live iu Peace.” “If a man die shall lie live again?” Faith without works is d‘*ad.” “Char ity never faileth.” "Be not weary in well doing.” The painting of these inscriptions was l done by Schumacher, and they are in his usual beautiful style. We think the room a decided improvement upon the old one in every re spect. The Sabbath School will meet in the vestry at nine o’clock to-morrow morning. There will be religious services at 10 1-2 A. SI., 2 1-2 and 7 P. M., by Rev. Henry D. Moore. The services will be appropriate to the occasion of re-oceupying the house which was burned last W.nter, and the re-building of which has been pushed forward with so much rapidity. The frescoeing of the walls of the church, above the vestry is going on, and everything is in such a state of forwardness, that it will probably be occupied on the first of January. An organ has been contracted for, to be built by Hall of New York. It will be similar in style to the old one but of more power. The wood work of the pews is all ready and the contractor is ready to put them up just as soon as the painters will allow him to proceed with his work. The chime of bells lias been dis posed of with tile exception of the large bell, whose noble sound will call the congregation to the House of Worship. The re-building of ttiis church lias been done under tue superintendence and direction ol one man, Mr. Y. C. Hanson, who purchased tlie ruins of the old edifice for the benefit of those who intend to worship there. The name has lieen changed to the Central Church which tge think wise in more than one respect. We w ish the new Society prosperity in their undertaking. Certain it is that they start un der most favorable prospects. Snow Storm.—The first snow of the season J visited 11s about one o’clock yesterday. Its advent w'tis heralded in by 100 gnns fired on the dump. Just as the last gun was fired the storm commenced. The wind blew a gale from tlie Northeast, and tlie storm continued until about ten o’clock at night. Considerable snow has fallen in the city—enough to make good sleighing if it had fallen level: but the wind blew it into drifts and a large portion of the ground is bare. In Washington and Baltimore it commenced snowing about daylight, and in New York a little later. In Boston tlie storm commenced aliout eight o’clock in the morning, with hail and rain, and in the course of an hour and a half it began to snow. About two inches of snow had fallen in these cities up to one o’clock yesterday. In this city yesterday at eight o’clock, A. M. the mercury stood at 28 deg., wind northeast, the same at twelve o'clock M. At three o'clock P. M., the mercury stood at 22 deg., wind north, and at eleven P. M. it stood at 26 deg., wind blowing a gale. So severe a snow storm and gale, so early in November, has not been experienced here since 1808. Silver Change.—If our dealers slid shop keepers would adopt the rule now universal among the traders of Boston, we think it would soou make change plenty—to wit: take and pay out American coin at the following rates: a five cent piece for six cents, ten cents for j twelve and a half, twenty-five cents for thirty 1 and filly cents for sixty cents. II tlie leading business men were to sign a paper to thiz effect it would bring out the coin now withheld by many; this plan, with the in creasing supply of postage currency will soon make change plenty Strain. Army Nurses.—At the request of Miss j Dix, tlie following ladies left our city this week, to act as nurses in tlie various hospitals around Washington: Mrs. Angelia Whitman, Mrs. Snow. Miss Adelaide Walker, Miss Pear son, ail ol Portland, and Miss Quinby of West brook. Miss Newhall and Miss Titcouib are actively enployed In the hospital at Chester, iu charge of a ward that has a quarter of a mile of beds, occupied by sick and wounded soidiers, union and rebel. rr- The alarm of fire at 8 o’clock last j evening, was occasioned by tlie burning out of a chimney in a house at the foot of Plum St. I BY TELEGRAPH. TO THE Portland Daily Press. FROM WASHINGTON. Tilt* Becent Cabinet Canards. Kt'instdtfiiK'iit of Gi‘ii. Martiudalc. Master's Mates Wanted in the Navy. Decision in relation to Tax on Blank Books. Washington, Nov. 7. The agent of the Associated Pi ess inquired at the State Department to-day about the cur reut statements of Mr. Seward having been consulted by Mr. Buchanan in the closing period ol his administration also about the startling hostile announcements having been made by M. Mercier to the Secretary ol State, and about Hie protracted, adjourned gaud anxious meetings of the cabinet, involving seridus military and cabinet changes. The secretary simply replied to the inquiry that the alleged consultations between himself and Mr. Bucnanau were imaginary; t lie reported pro positions of M. Mercier were apoehryphal,and the alleged cabinet meetings fabulous. Brig. Gen. Martmdale lias been formally re stored to duty, alter a suspension of about one month, it being the opinion of the court of in quiry which investigated the charge preferred by MjiJ Gen. Porter againt him, that the ac cusation is disproved, and that the interests of the service do not require the lurthcr investi gation of die subject. Frequent eases of executive clemency have recently become known; among them is that of a private, whose sentence for the erimes ol burglary, larceny and robbery is promulgated in general orders trout the headquarters ol the department ol Missouri, in consideration of the youth of the prisoner, of the fact that he lias been a brave though misguided soldier in the defence of his country, and of his enfeebled condition, the result of the conlluement to which he has been subjected, the President has remitted the remainder of his term of im prisonment oil condition that the goods stolen. or their money value, be restored to the owner. Col. Garescbe, well known in connection with the Adjutant General’s office, has left Washington to join Muj. Gen. Kosecraus, as his chief of stall'. Chevalier lliilseinan, the Austrian minister, intends taking up his residence in the city of New York. wuere for the past year lie has re sided must of the time. A few young men who have experienced three years sea service,’ either as officers or before llie mast, are wauled iu the navy as masters mates. The latest official intelligence shows an im proved condition ol affairs among the Indian tribes. An effort is being made to secure a permanent peace among the recently conquer ed Sioux of Minnesota, without resorting to wholesale hanging, as letters from that Stale anticipate, and the action of Gen. Dope im plies. Acting commissioner of internal revenue, &c., Estes, has just addressed the following to a gentleman in New York: Sir—Y'our letter of Nov. 4th, enclosing a sample of diary manufactured by yourself, has been received. The commissioner has decided that blank books are a manufacture, and as such are liable to a tax of .‘5 per cent ad valo rem. The seventy-tilth section of the law ex empts printed books, magazines, pamphlets, newspapers, reviews, and all other similar printed publications. Clearly diaries, such as you submit, are not embraced within the lat ter classes, on the contrary they arc iu every sense a blank book, as much so as a note, cash, or other mercantile blank hook. Boiler Explosion on board the J. H. Dickey. LOSS OF LIFE. St. Loots, Nov. 7. About 1 o’clock yesterday morning, when to miles aboveySt. Genevieve, the steamer J. II. Dickey exploded one of her boilers, killing several ami injuring others of her passengers and crew. The passengers were awakened by a violent shock. Kimuing from their rooms they found the boat had run against the Illinois bank, and lay fastened in the mud. Ill about 1.1 minutes, while the passengers were still wandering about the cabin, and not yet recovered Iroin tiieir first alarm, another terrible shock shook j the whole boat, and the forward cabin was in stantly tilled with steam. Numbers inhaled it, and tell dying upon the floor. Other passen gers. among whom were several ladies, rushed to the stern. Other horrors were added by lire communicated from the furnace breaking out iu the state-rooms through the floor above the boilers. After long and earnest exertions the lire w as conquered. All unite in giving praise to t'apt. Ilussel man lor his bravery and judgment. ’1 he cause of the explosion lias not been as certained. The engineer states it to have been caused by the shock iu striking the bank, dis arranging me Doner; while others maintain that the I toiler was old and defective. The pilot states that the cause of the vessel going ashore was a signal to back water being understood as one to go ahead. Among the killed is Lieut. K. Dodge, (ith IT. S. cavalry,of Philadelphia. Henry Wallen, clerk of the boat, was dangerously scalded. Several persons are known to have been blown overboard; others jumped into the riv er in the panic.and were drowned. At 8 o’clock the next morning the steamer Warner came along and brought the Dickey’s passengers and crew to this city. Missouri Election.

FIVE WAYS LITER FROM EIROPE. Arrival of tlio Steamship Norwegian cif Farther Point. Farther Point, Nov. 7. The steamship Norwegian, from Liverpool on the 2:{it and Londonderry on 24th ult, ar rived off here to-day. Steamship City of Baltimore, from New York, and Anglo Saxon, from Quebec, have arrived at Liverpool. GREAT BRITAIN, When tlie Norwegian sailed the weather was very boisterous, and marine disasters were re ported. Ship Marietta, from Liverpool for New York, put into Queenstown on tlie 22d, leaky. The Benares, from Sunderland for China, put into Lough Foyle, leaky. The Liverpool ship Bencoolin was wrecked, and 28 of her crew lost. The Times’ city article,referring to the reso lution contemplated by the confederate gov ernment, to collect a million bales of cotton and sell them in Europe, subject to all the con tingencies as to the date at which they can be shipped in. is not without importance. Should the resolution be passed, there are propably many speculators who might be tempted into' such a speculation, provided the margin of profit ottered was very large. The writer sug gests that perhaps tlie confederates, by means of the Ovicto. and other vessels, hope to break up the blockade of Charleston or some other port during the winter. Tlie Daily News thinks tlie federal cause has never before looked so like success in its essential features. The South is almost at the last stage of exhaustion, while the North is nearly untouched in all its resources. All that European nations have to do is to wait the event, which must he decided by other in fluences than theirs. 'The Times, of course, takes a directly op posite view, and says more important than the news of battle is the fact that the New York money market lias at last began really to leel tlie changes which threaten the country. With not a single confederate State conquered, or likely to be; with not one cent levied yet by direct taxation at the North; with an imineuse host of raw recruits to he paid their bounties, armed, clothed and supported; with a gigantic mass of materials to provide for another inva sion, the federal government tinds its paper depreciated iflt far from one third of its value. Although probably no invasion of Pennsylva nia on a large scale is*intended,the fresh raid across the Potomac must impress the federals with tlie conviction that their enemy is as full of spirit as ever. Tlie article then expatiates tlie West. Tlie Liverpool correspondent of the Times, Mr. Spencer, again urges mediation or recog nition, on the ground that Europe cannot re main callous either to the suffering there, or the terror elsewhere, lie thinks tlie contest too likely to degenerate into mutual butchery, and that England may then be driven to take »P arms to end such an outrage on civiliza tion. The Daily News points to Mr. Sumner's speech at Boston, and its reception, as refuta tion of the Times’ arguments that the eman cipation scheme would be repudiated. It de nounces the scandalous charges which havb been brought against the authors and abettors of the scheme. Mr. Beni. Brodie, the distinguished surgeon, died at bis seat in Surrey, ou the 21st. A cabinet council was to be held in London on the day the steamer left Liverpool. At a public meeting held in Oldham, a res olution was offered, calling on the Government to recognize the independence of tlie CoDfed ei ate States as the only means of ending tlie civil war. An amendment was offered, declaring rec ognition as impolitic and likely to result in a war with the North. After a long debate and uproarous proceed ings, the original motion was declared carried, although the meeting was about equally di vided. The destruction of American ships by the rebel steamer Alabama, caused a general ad vance in tlie ratis of insurance at Lloyds of two or three per cent, on all American slii|>s. 1 he advance demanded at Liverpool is even as high as rive guineas per cent. FRANCE. It i» stated that Count Persigny and M. Fonld have consented to remain in the cabi net, the Emperor having assured them that there was nothing reactionary in his present policy respecting Italy, but tiiat he declined to lake any hurried step with regard to Home.

POETRY. The Silent Land* Into the Silent Land! Ah! who shall lead us thither? Clouds in the evening star more darkly gather, And shattered wrecks Tie thicker on the strand Who leads us with a gentle hand Thither, O thither, Into the Silent Land! Into the Silent Land! To you, ye bouudlees regions Of all perfection Tender morning-visions Of beauteous souls! The Future’s pledge and band Who in Life’s battle firm doth stand, Shall bear Hope’s tender blossoms Into the Silent Laud! 0 Land! O Land! For all the broken-hearted The mildest herald by our fate allotted Beckons, and with inverted torch doth stand To lead us with a gentle hand Into the land of the great Departed, Into the Silent Laud! MISCELLANY. ___ ___ A LESSON FROM TIIE CORNFIELD. “I want to know what’s the use of studying Latin said a boy, yawning, as he threw his book upon the window-seat. If the truth were told, not much Latin had been studied that hour; he had been watching the sunset, stirring the fire, letting Carlo in and pussy out of the door, and doing what- j ever he could possibly find an excuse fordoing while pretending to study his conjugation. "I can be as smart a man as I want to be, without all this, I know I” "And what’s the use of sewing for ever, too, 1 wonder,” echoed his sister from her window- seat,“when one knows how?” I don’t see any sense in tasks; they're nothing but a plague r Tiief tlmn o nfnrn A \foctor n iritK nn armful of wood; his face was discontented enough. “Eternally something to dohe murmured, i as he threw the wood into the box w ith an emphasis; “no end of splitting and piling, and unpiling; I should like to know what's the use ot being kept at it, when father could afford j to hire every bit of it done as easily as not “Father sees the end from the beginning, Mark, and that’s a happy thing for you,” said a voice from the next room, where Ruth, elder sister and foster-mother to these discontented young folks, was bestirring herself about tea. “I didn’t know you were there,” said Mark, by way of an apology. “Besides,” continued Ruth, “he couldn’t alter the case, if he would, very much; you you are only fulfilling one of God’s greatest laws in enduring all these trials.” Mark didn’t pay much attention to this philosophy; he was out of humor because he could not please himself continually. But, after tea and the evening frolic out of doors were over, Ruth announced from the window that she thought site could give them a story, at which word they came romping into the sitting-room, cold, fresh, good-natured, and eager. A sharp contest for seats commenced, half in fun and half in sellishuess, and when that was settled, the story began, thus: At the latticed side of a well stored corn-crib, lay a goldeu ear, covered with close-marshall ed glittering ranks of corn grains. The corn looked out upon the world, that is, upon the barn-yard, in lazy quietness, quite contented with its place in life—though, lor that matter, it was of no present use to any one. One day the heapoi grain felt a mighty disturbance in the neighbourhood of the ear in question; a general agitation prevailed; things began to slide from uuder it; evidently its long, idle, 1 peacelul dream was at an end. With a multi tude of fellow-ears it was thrown into a basket, carried to the kitchen, and there forcibly and painfully separated from its parent stalk— thelled, the farmer's boy said, who did it; for what end, farmers only could know. “Well-a-day!” exclaimed the kernels, as they lay buried in the basket. “This is another thing to life in the coru-crib, where we were a peaceful and united family. What will hap pen next?” Next the corn was carried to the field, and carelessly cast into tho damp earth, where it lay looking up at the sky and sun in amazement. Never had it been as low as this before; but there was no time for speech at this new phase of life, for suddenly the eartli closed, the light disappeared, and the family of kernels lay UUI icu. “What can be the meaning of this ex claimed one. “Are we never to leave this dis mal hole?” “There’s no telling. After all that’s passed, j I am prepared for almost anything.” “Change rules nowadays,” replied another, j pbilophically. “We can’t endure this long, however,” re sponded a third; “we shall die I Oh, is it not hard to bear?” “What a dreadful place! full of worms and noisome insect. Oh! We were well enough oft'in the corn-crib—what can be the use of all this?” Meanwhile a change was passing upon them. All the elements of their bodies seemed dis solv’ng, and if you had uncovered the hill the fifth or sixth day, you would have lound the pretty shining grains all blackened and mouldy, stained and swolen out of shape. “Ruined, you see,” they said to one another; “ruined and lost! If we could have seen any use in it! Oh! if we could have staid in our corn crib, then our life would have been happy. But at length the mysterious change begins to hasten; their substance seems to take new shape; lile appears suiting out of death. Yet not one of the complainants could tell what was happening, nor did they kuow, till, one morning, they found themselves again gazing into the sun—no longer bare grain. God had given them a new body, far superior to that which had fallen into the ground. Each look ed on the other with admiration, and all look ed into the vaulted blue sky rejoicing. Had they been a little uller, they would have seen a countless brotherhood of similar planU, hold ing up their glad heads above their mouldy beds, which they counted their graves. Tru ly, this is change,” they all exclaimed, and waited to see what the end would be. •The days passed, warm and shining, and the nights cool and dewy, while each young plant shot up taller and uller, till at length they overlooked the whole broad farm, and over topped the farmer’s head, if he walked through the field; they now waved blossoms and silken Ussels to each other, and gladly rustled their broad leaves in the wind. The birds of the air perched, singing, on their swaying tops, and enormous yellow pumpkin-flowers look ed up in envy from the ground far beneath. This is a delightful world, after all,” said one tall plant, bestirring its long leaves. Yes, indeed,” replied its brother; when one has become prepared for it, and has grown Ull enough to enjoy It.” Life never seemed like this when we dwelt in the coru-erib." rustled a third. How much further we see and how much more we en joy!” “Yes; now we are living to some purpose and on n large scale. We have no reason to regret being buried. But who would have dreamed any good could have come of it?” Give the farmer the praise,” su'd the wind, as it drove the cloud-shadows across the corn field, and God who so ordered your existence. As to yourselves, you would have shrivelled nH rrtlllllaroH tn thn nni-n neil. rt shill .L, on/1 would not have suffered oDe of the trials ne cessary to your preseut happy state.” The corn bowed beneath this deserved re- proof, and in its ear blessed the sharp disci pline of trial aud the wise hand of the farmer who had enforced it. However,” said Mark, when the tale was ended, “theie’s no such difference between men and children as there is between the seed aud the grown corn; so that your story hard ly applies to us.” Nearly as much, if you look at those who possess the greatest perfection of character.— Yet men, even when they reach the highest stage of earthly perfection, are far below what they shall he, while the vegetable fulfills its whole destiny here. Yet, think of the difference between little Harry, or even yourselves, for example, and John Milton, or Mark's favorite, Walter Scott, and say if such children ure more than mere seeds—grains which must fall to the ground and die if they would bring forth fruit. Which would you rather, to lie at ease and Shrivel into nothingness aud insignificance, or grow, by means of trials and oppositions, to the full stature of men and women Whether tlie children laid Ruth’s story to heart and profited by it, or whether they con tinued their grumblings, I never could learn.
