Copies of Charleston papers of Xov. 4th fur nish some items of news from Richmond, con uuaeu in uieir corresponaeuce irom me rebel capital. Tlie Richmond correspondent of the Mercu ry, says that while talcs of peace are circulated to lull the Confederate Government into a state of security, the most tremendous prepa rations are making by the Federal Govern ment for tlie subjugation of the const, in order to pnt tlie confiscation and emancipation pro gramme into effect. It was generally rumored at the South, that a Minister from Belgium had readied Rich mond, but tliis tbe correspondent denies. Wc quote from a Richmond letter of Oct. 28 tlie following paragraphs: “Yesterday we had the (for some time) un usual spectacle of an artillery train moving down Main street. Orders were received by tbe officers in command near tlie city to be ready to march 8t a moment's notice. There is talk of a Yankee attack on Weldon, dud if tlie force at Suffolk is what they say it is, Wel deu is in some danger. Officers from Lee's army represent things in a favorable light. The army is a pretty large one. The Examiner sums up the means of relief from our financial troubles in a few words:— Sell Confederate bonds in Europe. IT that can’t be done, make Treasury Notes fnndablc in bouds, bearing Midi a rate of interest, however high, as will induce holders to invest. After wards, borrow money at any rate of interest whatever rather than issue anymore Treasury Notes. The Enquirer also urges people to invest in 8 per cent, bonds, instead of vacant lots and barren farms, both of which w ill depreciate at the first prospect of peace. Governor Letcher lias issued a proclamation about the distillation of alcohol. No grain is to lie used for that purpose, and nothing to drink is to be made out of the alcohol under heavy penalties. But the people are rushing apples into the still and tlie consumption of apple brandy is enormous. The higher liquor gets the more is drunk, and it is the same ease with oysters, incredible quantities of which are devoured at high prices. Interesting experiments liavc been made within tbe last week with the MeEvoy fuse, which promises to prove tlie surest, simplest and cheapest fuse ever invented. Highly sat isfactory experiments have also been made with the flat-headed bolt, capped with wrought iron, lor we have little or no steel. It is not advisable to tell how many incites of iron have been penetrated by these bolts. Let the Yankees And out Arst, and then the secret will be wortli telling. Outside of official circles, the armistice sto ry is taken quite coolly. There is some dis cussion as to w hether tlie blockade will bo raised in case the armistice is accepted. Be yond this little is said or itoped. Upon tlie street there is a rumor of tlie pur chase by European capitalists, of Confederate bonds to a large amount—some say $500,000 and others put it as high as $-1,(XX),000. It is reported that the purchasers will give exchange at 00, a most fav orable bargain for us. We now recall the fact that a Georgia Ann, so cal led, bought the other day, $1.(XXI,000 of Con federate bonds, and some incline to the opin ion that this Georgia Arm has partners abroad. A number of officers from Bragg's army are in town. They speak of him without mercy. One of them told me that Kentucky was for ever lost to us, and by our own fault. Bragg misstates facts when lie says we got 1500 re cruits in Kentucky. Buford's Cavalry Brigade aloue numbers 2000; to say nothing of infant ry regiments that came back with our army. While Buell was retreating to Louisville, tbe flower of his arm]) having been cut up at I’er ryville, Bragg was leaving the richest country in the world for a region in which it is impos sible for ilia army to subsist. The men are worse off for clothes and blan kets than Lee's army. In the face of all this, a staff officer asserted yesterday that Bragg had been promoted to the command of tiie en tire West. In truth llinnrrl. UnCInll,..'. ___ ty is part of a scheme to influence the elections, which take place in nine States on Tuesduy next, it is plain that ‘‘Little Mac” is being engineered for the Presidency by the brokers, while Stanton and the Republicans are work ing with might and main against him. A pretty kettle of fish is brew ing, evidently. The City Government of Charleston has ap pointed a committee to take measures for the removal of non-combatants (womenand child ren) in case the city is attacked. The rice crop of South Carolina is good this year, but the corn crop is rather short. The conduct of Gen. Huger during the bat tles tiefore Richmond is to be inquired into by a military court. Lieut. J. Pembroke Jones is commander of the “Floating Battery Georgia,” built for the defence of the harbor of Savannah. Chattanooga was visited on the night of Oct. 25th, with a pretty heavy enow storm. The ground was entirely covered to the depth ot an inch and a half. A Rebel Soldiek Getting ms Eyes Opened.—The correspondent of the St. Louis Democrat with Gen. Grant's army, copies sev eral interesting extracts from letters written by rebel soldiers that were picked up after a recent skirmish. One of them w'ritcs to his friends as follows: “I am discouraged, sick and worn out, phys ically, mentally anil morally. I need to be encouraged. 1 want to know' what sensible men think now of our prospects. I must confess that the prospect looks very gloomy. I look around and see so much am bition. selflahnteas and wickedness. I almost blush to hear such men claim the Lord to lie oil our side. I just think we are overpowered. A good many of the delusions with which we started out have become unveiled and vanish eil; such us whipping three to one, and so forth. I know it takes mighty hard fighting to whip one to one here. Now it seems to me that it would take every available man to protect our frontier. They havo 'gized our pile,' and call ed out several thousand more.” Writing about the newspaper accounts of barbarities committed on both sides, he says: “Our own men do as bad as ever I want to sec or read about. But tire question is, wlmt sort of a peace could bo obtained? 1 can say, that if it was to do over again, 1 would not tie in favor of the war. Can we get the Constitution and the l nion as it was before? If so, had we lietter not accept, than carry on another year? Even in view of emancipation, how many valuable lives arc we willing to lose, and how many helpless widows and orphans are we willing to see made, for the upholding of our favorite institution? My opinion is that a bad peace is betterthun no peace #t all.” Death of Mrs. Livingstone. By the late English papers we have received intelligence of the death of Mi's. Livingstone, the heroic wile of Rev. Dr. Livinstone, the cel ebrated African missionary and explorer. She died in Africa, having accompanied tier hus band in his last visit thither. She was the daughter of Rev. Mr. Motrat the veteran mis sionary w ho published a Isiok ol great inter est on Southern Africa, some twenty years ago. Mrs. L. was born and nurtured in the wilds of South Africa, and for many years shared witii her husband the labors, privations, discouragements and successes of ids mission ary life, and entered on her last mission with a full understanding of what was before her. We quote from an interesting account in the New York Evangelist, the following passages: When the indefatigable explorer prepared to again brave the perils of untrodden regions, i live years since, she, like a true wife, decided I to accompany him, and witii two children em- uaiacu uu warn one oi iiur fliajesiy s snips OI war for the C’a;H' of Good Hope, on their way to the Zambesi on the Eastern Coast. At Si erra Leone, where they called a few days, the missionaries spoke of Mrs. Livingstone as one well suited to lx* an helpmeet to her courag eous husband. After their arrival, the little steamer which the Doctor took out with him proved to l»e n usuited to his use, uud he or tiered another from England, and in the mean time Mrs. Livingstone was for a time absent either at the Cape or in England, and had but recently rejoined her husband, when she tvas stricken down with fever—called borne—leav ing her bereaved companion to pursue bis adventurous career alone. Ami so another is added to the noble list of Christian heroines, who have courageously faced dangers, cheerfully and patiently endur ed privations, and joyfully given their lives for the redemption of Africa and oilier por tions of the heathen world. Mrs. Livingstone lies burled under the large baobab tree on the Eastern shores of Africa, Harriet Newell on tin* isle of Kauee to the Eastward, and Ann Judson under tin* shadow of a lofty bopia tree at Amherst, still farther towards the rising sun. And the lone gravis* of many others less noted, but not. less devoted, self sacritlcing, and useful, are scattered on every missionary Held, where heathen darkness is disappearing before the glorious dawn of Gospel light. It i« a curious thing that, with some 12o,000 English words, people can get on with very few. D’Orsey.a philologist of ability, records that a country clergyman in England told him that some of the laborers in his parish had not 300 words in their vocabulary. On the aver age, the children of persons with ordinary ed ucation do not use more than 2*X) words until the age often. Max Muller says; “A well educated person in England, who lias been at a public school, and at the University, who read* his Bible, Shakspeare, the Times, and all the books of Mudie's library, (i. e.. nineteen twentieths of all the books published in Eng land.ij seldom use more than :),« purchased, at any other place in the lar-No trouble to show goods: call and *ee before purchasing elsewhere. ocjg For Male.

POOR RICHARD'S EYE dr EAR WATER "J^JO Organs of the human system are more iinpor tant to health and comfort than the Eye and Ear, and yet none are leas understood or more neg lected They seem to pass even common observation, and yet every part of the body is dependent upjn them for life and health. Poor Richard's Eye and Ear Water Is a new and rare discovery, which is most wonder ful in its operations, putting to blush the old systems of treatment, which have quite as often done harm as good. Below we give the certificate of Rev. P. 8. Henson, Pastor of the Broad .Street Baptist Church, Philadelphia. If any one has doubts as to the value of thiR remedy, they may learn more of its practical value by addressing a note of inquiry to Mr. H. Philadelphia, Oct. 17,1862. From injuries received in my right eye, when a boy, a chronic inflammation bad been produced, in consequence of which 1 suffered constant martyr dom. Every moment of my waking life was embit tered, and I was frequently unable to sleep at night. A variety of remedies had been resorted to with out success, and 1 entertained the purpose, as a last resort, of having the ball taken out of its socket, in the hope of thus finding relief. In the meantime, most providentially, I noticed one day in a shop window a bottle of POOR RICH ARD’S EYE WATER. I had never heard of it be fore, but determined to try ifc and did, with the most delightful results. In a very few days the painful irritation w as removed; I could bear the strougest light, and went forth to the enjoyment of a new life. I now keep a bottle of it always in the house, and if my eye seem* at all disposed to anuoy me, I give it a dose, and that is an eud of it. I would not bo with out it for any amount of money. I take occasion to say, further, that my wife used to suffer severely at times from protracted pain in and over her eye aud she has found Poor Richard’* Lye Water a sov ereign specific in her case, giving her almost Justaut relief. Grateful to God for the benefit that I have personally' received, I cannot but commend the prep aration to all who have been sufferers like myself. P. S.

THE DAILY PRESS. POUTLAND, MAINE. Wednesday Morning, .Vsvember 26, IS62. _ The Portland Daily Press has the largest regular circulation of any daily paper in the city. _ Maine War Claim Association. In another oolumu we have published— and we have done it with pleasure—the circu lar of the this newly-formed Association, the design and object of whicli are of the most be nevolent and patriotic character. The con tribution of Maine to the land and naval force of tiie ynion, will not fall much, if any, short of 40,000. How much this number will be in creased before the closing up of the war, no human foresight cau with exact accuracy tell. The claims of individuals of this vast number, upon the general government, growing out of bounties, back pay, Ac., must be immense, to say nothing of the question of pensions. Al lowing that tlie amount shall average only $75 per man, the aggregate sum would be 000,000. In a large majority of cases these small items—in the aggregate so large—would belong to those in by no means opulent cir cumstupces; generally to those by whom $75 would be regarded as no mean addition to their scanty means; in many instances, doubt less, to the widows and orphans, or the depend ent parents of those who have fallen upon the field of battle, or died of disease contracted in the public service,—and the object of the As sociation is to secure to such their just rights, with the smallest subtraction from those rights in the form of expenses. The ciaiins of our soldiers, or their legal representatives, will be prosecuted witli vigor and fidelity, and not a cent of charge will be made in the shape of fees beyond the actual expenses, which, it is believed, will not exceed two, or two and a half per cent. There is to be no conflict with other claim agents or agencies; for if any body else will do the business as cheaply, or Gotl-speeil; their simple design being to se cure to the claimant the benefit of bis claim, with the ieast possible abatement in the form of commissions, fees, or expenses. Local Directors are to be appointed in all the cities and principal towns of the Stale; men of intelligence and heart, who will act without pay, imparting information to those who need, and aiding them to bring their claims to the attention of the Actuary, and to furnish him with the needful papers to support the claim. Geo. F. Emery, Esq., the Actuary, is a gen tleman too well known to need a word of com mendation from us—to know liiin is enough to •ecure confidence in him—in his integrity, his honor, and in the kindly qualities of his heart. He will enter upon his duties with earnestness, and prosecute the business committed to liis charge with fidelity. More need not be said. It is hoped the press of the State will feel dis posed to copy the circular of the Association, and to give it the benefit of such endorsement as ita merits shall seem to them to warrant. From the Foridence Journal. The Victory lor Freedom in Missouri. While waiting for victories in the field, let us not overlook the importance oftbe wonder in' and glorious victory which freedom has gained in the slave State of Missouri. One of the most remarkable revolutions of public opinion which ever took place in the course of a few months has just happened there. While partisans in the free States have been apolo gising for slavery and doing what they could to perpetuate its threatened existence, the citi zens of Missouri have pronounced a verdict of condemnation against the institution, and have solemnly registered their determination to be rid of it. Four of their nine Congressmen ire ranked as radical emancipationists and one as a Union emancipationist. A majority of the legislature are emancipationists, and will of course elect men ot that stamp to the United States Senate. Senator Henderson, who more than auy other ruau may be considered as the leader of the triumphant party, and whose ear nest efforts hare contributed largely to its suc cess, will probably be one of the Senators. The name of B. Gratz Brown, who lias labored with signal ability and devotion for the result which has been acbeived, is prominent among those mentioned as the future colleague of Mr. Henderson. At any rate, men with their principles will represent the State in the Sen ate. Missouri has had a ’chance to see slavery and the rebellion co-operating upon her soil, and she now tells us her opinion of them. She wishes both removed from her domain. The war has enlightened her respecting the dangerous clement in slavery. She perceives that she can have'no assurance of permanent peace, no safeguard against tumult, guerillas, destructive raids, until the cause of the dis turbances is removed. She cannot be blind to the supirior progress in wealth and population, which the free States near her have made. She is not ignoraut of the fact that the thou sands of hardy emigrants from the cast and northern Europe, who have been enriching Illinois, Iowa, Wisconsin and Miunisota, prefer those States only because slavery is not found in them. The fine climate, the rich soil, the j vast mineral resourses of Missouri will attract them thither as soon as slavery Is gone and peace is restored. The war, disorganizing to 1 a great extent slavery in uie stale, lias press ed these considerations home with new force, until it has become manifest to every observ ing man that slavery cannot long remain lu the State. Everlasting Fire.—When the track of the railroad between Brunswick and Bath was being graded, in crossing a meadow near the populous portion of the latter city the “dump” suddenly took on a sinking symptom, and down went the twenty feet till of gravel, clay and broken rocks, oat ol sight, and it was a long, long time before dirt trains could till the capacious stomach that seemed ready to receive all tile solid material that could be turned into it. The difficulty was at length overcome, but all along the side of the sinkage the earth was thrown up, broken into yawning chasms, and the surface was thus elevated above its oid watery level. Since that time this ground, thus slightly elevated, has been cultivated, and has yielded enormously of whatever the own er seemed disposed to plant upon it. Some three months ago, by some means unknown to us, the underlying peat took tire, und for weeks, as we had occasion to pass it, we no- i ticed the smoke arising from the smouldering 1 combustion beneath the surface. Rains fell, but _ the tire burned, and the smoke continued to arise. Monday we had occasion to pass the spot, and thou 'll nearly a week’s rain had been drenching the ground, aud though the surface w’as whitened with snow, and though pools of j water were standing upon the surface in the j immediate neighborhood, still the everlasting subterranean fire was still burning, and the I smoke arising through the snow.

BOETOX, Nov. 24,1862. My Dear Press :—The long stonn has now left Boston, where it has been having a suc cessful week. The barometer, on Monday last, was said to be much higher than it has been known to be for years, but its good prom ises were not fulfilled. Instead of fair weath er we have had foul. The mercury began to fail on Tuesday, and, if one can judge by his feelings, I don’t think it stopped falling before Saturday night. Then the mist, and drizzle, and drip cleared off. and we are now enjoying a bright, sunshiney day. It seems to be a pretty cold morning on Washington street, for I noticed that in a|K>thecary shops they had taken down the notice “Cold Soda.” and substituted “Bourbon” in its place. It is in deed pleasant to see the smoke go straight up from the chimnies this morning, instead of lin gering like an unwelcome guest, unwilling to i depart. We have had two tragedies during the last week. On Friday morning the whole city was excited by rumors of a terrible accident on tlie Boston Maine R. R. At first we all thought the accident must have occurred on some other road, because the B. M. lias been wonderfully free from casualties. You have already seen bv the local papers of Sat day an account of the open drawbridge, and the falling of the engine and baggage ear into very deep water. Even at low tide the en gine cannot be seen, so the depth of the water must have added not a little to the terror, and increased the danger of the accident. Isn't it a strange feature of casualties connected with steam travel that nobody is ever to blame In the old stage conch days cither the roads or the horses were at fault; now nobody is. The other tragedy to which I referred, was the suicide ol a young broker by the name ol Alfred Maddock. He was a graduate of Am herst College in the class of 1801, anil held a very high place in the estimation of his fellow pupils, and his instructors. An Englishman by birth, he seemed to unite English solidity to American acuteness, and to be oue of those quiet, strong men to whom no mental work seemed too hard. He committed suicide on Wednesday last, by hanging, having first ar rayed himself in letnale apparel in a very gro tesque manner. This, and other concomitant circumstances, go to show that he was labor ing under an intense mental depression, re sulting in temporary aberration of mind. You may remember, perhaps,an item in the Press of a month ago, in which reference was made to the successful efforts of a Boston gen tleman to obtaiu the guardianship of his brother, then resident in Maine. The gentle man to whom you alluded was the one Who has now terminated his life by Ids own bands. The Public Library is again open for the de livery of books. Any citizen of Boston can draw volumes from the library, when he pleas es, and change them as often as lie likes. No wonder that this city should claim to be the modern Athens, and rightly too. Its own cit izens are provided freely with books which few would be inclined to purchase, and you may be sure that they Improve their privileges well. I have seldom seen the distributing room empty; on the contrary ft is most gene rally very full. The reading-nlSm is well sup plied with American and foreign papers and magazines, mid this room is always full during open hours. Another public institution of Boston, which should lie noticed, is the Lowell Institute.— By the Lowell fund a hail lias been provided, and good lecturers are secured during the whole winter. Tickets are given aicay at the hail upon certain days before the commence ment of a course of lectures. If one happens to be so dilatory as not to obtain a, ticket if lie wishes to attend a lecture, be stands at the door of the hall at precisely half-past seven. Then the door-keeper says “all enter who wish,” and the door is locked! Mr. Norton begins a course of lectures in a lew days, up on nights alternating with Mr. Henry Giles.— Thus Boston, through public and private lib erality, has provided for its citizens the two great sources of human knowledge, books and lectures. Rev. A. L. Stone, of Park St. church, and Rev. Jacob Maiming, of the Old South, have followed many other clergymen to the war. Rev. Dr. Cleaveiand, brother of the late Prof. C., is supplying the vacancy caused by Mr. Stoue’s departure. Dr. C. Weut in Butler's ex pedition to Ship Island, and having stayed there as long as the Surgeon would permit, has returned home with health somewhat im paired. Rev. Mr. Byrington is preaching in Mr. Manning's stead. He is quite a young man, and is deservedly popular. The uew depot of the Eastern rail-road is now progressing rapidlv. The walls are near ly all erected, ami the iron roof is partly raised. It will be a magnificent building,ami will com pensate in a measure for the ridiculously small station with which the company so long econ omized. It was always a matter of doubt to 6ome travelers, as they alighted from the cars iu the old depot, whether they hadn’t made a mistake and slopped at West Searboro’! But the new depot will be commodious and its style of architecture will be referred to the present century. Thanksgiving is casting, not its shadows, but its lights before. The markets are waking into new life, and the poultry question is be coming one of considerable magnitude. I wish that there could be some organized move ment at the north by which we could promise our soldiers enough thanksgiving turkeys to satisfy all, if they will promise, on their part, to eat their dinner beyond the Rappahannock 1 It is useless to disguise the fact that we all wish that the draft had been pushed ahead as it was announced and that we had every avail able soldier before the city of Fredericksburg. Are you uot glad to see that recreant offi cers are being dismissed Some of them are hoping to escape by resigning, but the public know well that, in the face of the enemy, such officers w ould tremble hard enough to shake their shoulder straps otf. They were all well enough while defending the Capital, but let them make way now for the fighting men. And, that the braves may succeed, is the pray er of the north; and that they may soon be be yond the Rappahannock, and in the rebel Cap ital, is the sincere wish of Moxie. Officers Dismissed.—The Philadelphia Inquirer publishes the names of eighty officers who have been dismissed from the service of the United States. The following New Eng land names appear in the list: Captain Thompson, 22d Massachusetts; 1st Lieut. Stearne, 4th Maine; 2d Lieut. C’arlen, 27tli Massachusetts; 1st Lieut.Shute, 22d do.; 2d Lieut. McKay, 22d do.; 2d Lieut. Judson, lfttli do., absent without leave, dismissed the service; Capt. Marozorvier, Dili New York Battery, retaining government horses for his private use: Lieut. Sullivan, 16th New Hamp shire, insulting ami attempting personal vio lence upon a woman while his command was on the march; Capt. Marshall, lltli Connecti cut, resigning in a manner disrespectful to his commanding officer; Capt. Hosford, lltli Con necticut Volunteers, tendering his resignation in a manner disrespectful to his commanding officer. For the Daily Pres*. Messrs. Editors;—Doubtless your read ers will not wish your columns to be filled up with a long controversy concerning the debate at Mechanics’ Hall, yet some of your reader! are unwilling that the impressions calculated to be left on the mind by a perusal of your correspondent Machigonue,” should pass en tirely uncorrected. That reporter, either from lack of judgment or design, (I will not impute the latter) has, in his communication, given the entire strength of eloquence and argument in the last debate, to “Mr. J. T. Emery,” and “Cltas. P. Kimball, Esq.” I would not, for any Consideration, endeavor to rob these gentlemen of their full credit in the matter of forensic power, yet if an attempt to furnish the press a detailed account of this interesting detwte is made, it should be fairly done. Mr. Beale's argument, which aimed to show that the enforcement of the emancipation scheme would hit the rebellion in its most vul nerable point, and that, to effect this, patriotic union at the north ouly was requisite, was fairly enough treated; but with this exception, no gentleman speaking upon the affirmative was admitted by “Machigonue,” to have said anything to the subject. Now, sir, Mr. G. L. Bailey, a sound practi cal thinker, and a logical debater, although diverging from the main question to rebut col lateral arguments of the opposition, made a strong point in contrasting free and slave labor, and also touching the constitutional rights of rebels, which had been confidently discussed by the opposite side. Mr. Ambrose Biddings produced arguments against slavery and In tavor of its abolition, which, while they laire directly upon the question at issue, must have been convincing, not only to those “of his side,” but to all Who were not incurable with the disease of “nigger on the brain.” xr.. ir r r ..n cordance with his nature, to raise the spirits ot the audience by anecdotes, at the same time giving forcible expression to sentiments which some very plainly understood to bear upon the question under discussion. Whether the debate “will close on the eve ning of Dec. 4th” or not, is not yet precise ly determined, yet it is quite certain that some attempts will lie made on that occasion to illus trate the glorious truths and virtues of the “doctrines of u^versul emancipation,” and to rebut the liippant assumptions which claim all political,wisdom, all constitutional loyalty, and all patriotic statesmanship for that party who, in their mad devotion to the infernal system of human bondage, have brought this our hap py country to the brink of destruction. Affirmative. letter Irom the Army. Tlte following is an extract from a recent letter of an officer in the army of the l’otomac to his friend in this city: Camp near Warrentox, Va., i Xoveutbet 9, 15462. My Ot ar Friend Well, we have been inarching again. I wrote you while tit Snicker's Gap; since then we have marched quite a distance into rebeldoin. Night before last we encamped at White Plains; yesterday noon we came within three miles of Warretiton. This morning we were driven up to march the remainder of the dis tance. Wurreutou is the best looking place I have seen; the bouses are mostly of brick and decidedly Yaukeeish iu style. There are a great many troops here, some two hundred thous and or more, and the whole army is on the move, 1 earnestly trust to do something. 1 do not blame the people for being impatient; they have a right to expect something to be done. They have sjtent money, sent tlteir friends in to the army, have done everything that could be done. The present state of affairs is due solely to the infernal jealousies and contempti ble bickerings of the officers. We have a well equipped army, large enough, and willing to crush this rebellion into the earth, and if it is not done aud lliat right speedily, posterity will iuquire with astonishment, why? I think fcomelhiug decisive will soon be accomplished. It is very cold here now, and the troops are suffering ;onsiderably. We had a light tali of snow the other day and it was very disagree able. Gen. McClellan took leave of our corps yes terday morning. There was considerable en thusiasm, aud he seemed a good deal affected. I Hud there is a variety of opinion w ith regard to his removal. I, for one, am glad he is re moved; 1 think he has been too slow. Ido not doubt his patriotism or bis ability to plan, but his executive power is not what the crisis demands. Whether the change will be beu eUcial or not time will determine. State Teachers' Association. The Fourth Annual Meeting of the Maine Teachers’ Association, commenced in the city of Bangor yesterday.

Ber ry, in that town, was entered by burglars, and money and silver plate to the value of $300, was stolen therefrom. The entrance was ef fected by means of a false key to the front door. The thieves took all they desired from the lower rooms, but did not enter the cham bers where the family slept. No one of the family was aroused, and nothing of the bur glary was known until morning. ^“Speaking of a wreath of flowers recent ly presented to the husband of the lady men tioned, the Argus says: “It wus highly appre ciated, especially by Mrs. McClellan, and was tied at the end with red, white and blue rib bons".

fiSiSi&ii&Bn iWW.^ Hi rsAw MATTERS ABOUT TOWN. Suprema Judicial Court. The criminal term of the Supreme Judicial Court opened in this city yesterday morning. Judge Fox presiding. Prayer was offered by Rev. Mr, Bolles of the 1st Universalist Church. The Grand Jury for the coming year was thou impanneled as follows: Joseph Sanborn, Standish, Foreman; Levi F. Drake, Portland, Clerk; Daniel D. Chase, Wm. Paine, Portland; David. S. Cushing, Freeport; Elbridge Field, Falmouth Ezra T. Ingalls. Harrison; Ebenczer, Legrow, Wind hum; Janes E.

Sim|«on, Brunswick; Edward F. Thayer, Gray; John Whitney, North Yarmouth. After a pertinent and lucid charge from Judge Fox upon their duties as the grand inquest tor this county, the jurors retired to attend to such matters as may come before them, under direction of Mr. Butler, the Coun ty Attorney. Tlie cases from the Municipal Court to go before the grand jury arc less this termi than they have been for a long time. The traverse jurors will come in Tuesday, Dec. 9th, at which time trials on indictments will commence. United States District Court. IX ADMIRALTY. WARE, J., PRES1DIKO. Tuesday—Thomas Hutne als. v. Sch. Susan E. Brown. This schooner recently arrived at this port from a llshiog voyage. She is owned partly in this State, partly in Gloucester, Mass., ami partly in N'ew York. On her arrival here the Captain, Spencer McDonald, sold the cargo, for which he obtained about $3000, and cleared out n-nt, IK. 'ri,„ AM„. number, then libelled the vessel for their pro portions of the catch of fish. The libel w as returnable Tuesday morning, but upon request of counsel for the owners, the hearing was postponed until afternoon, in order to give the owners lime to be here. In the afternoon, none of the owners appearing, Judge Ware ordered the hearing to proceed; and, upon the libellants proving tbe above statements, he ordered an interlocutory decree for the sale of the schooner on Monday, the decree to stay, if. in the mean time the owners appear and make a valid de fence in the case. F. Fox for libellants. Howard ers have recently lieen frequently imposed upon by per sons, pretcuding to lie in search of employ ment, taking board, remaining a lew days and men clearing uui. w miuui geuiiug ineir lulls. In many cases sonic articles are missing aAer these scamps have left. All honest persons in search of employment can, generally, give good references, and these should be required. Poultry.—There was a bountiful supply of poultry in the market yesterday. Prices rang ed from 11 to 14 cents per pound for turkeys, 8 and 10 for chickens, 10 to 13 for geese, and 80 cts. to $1.25 per pair for ducks. Xothwith standing thanksgiving comes the same day in all the loyal States excepting Vermont, we think there will lie no danger of a scant sup ply of poultry. In Boston, yesterday, the best of turkeys sold at 14 cents. {^“Thanksgiving services will be held at Park street Church on Thursday morning at 10 1-2 o’clock. They will lie conducted by j Kev. Mr. Lovering of Park Street, Kev. Mr. Bolles of the Uuiversalist Society, and Kev. Mr. Stelibins of the First Parish. The people of these Parishes are invited to unite. The service which was appointed at the First Par ish will not be held. We have been requested to state that on the arrival of the Jura off this port, a sig- nal guu from the fort will announce her ap pearance, and the same will be done at the appearance of every steamer this season. No salutes will be fired, as one would infer from reading the Argus of yesterday morning. The Jura is now due at this port.

The Late Nathaniel Warrex.— We 1 V were in error yesterday about the time Mr. Warren removed from Saccnrappa to Portland. It is more than thirty years since he remov ed to this city. He was a director in the Ca nal Bank from the time of its organization up to his death—a period of thirty-six years. Railway Traffic.—The receipts on the Crand Trunk Railway for the week ending Nov. 15th were $100,802,02 Corresponding week last year, 03,704,10 Increase, $7,158,40 zar-in answer to many enquiries we would say, that Hou. N. J. Miller, Collector of Inter nal revenue, has received a limited supply of revenue stamps, which can be had on applica tion to him. The Eastern and Turner’s Expresses \i id accept our thanks Tor St* John papers per steamer New England. SBKSSSSSSSSBSBSSB BY TELEGRAPH -TO THE EVE\I\G PAPERS. Fame in the Georgia Legislature.—North Car olina considered an Unsale Place.—Escape of Prisoners.—Naval Attack ou Fort McAl ister. Fortress Monroe. Nov. 2:5. The Kiclitnond Examiner of the 22d says tliat a message was sent to the Georgia leg islature by Gov. Brown in reference to tlie Yankee raid mi St. Mary’s. It produced another coin motion about conscription, Slate defences, etc. The Senate passed a I/ill to call out the militia. The tobacco destroyed at Fredericksburg was worth from $75,000 to $100,000. It was seized because it was believed to have been brought to Fredericksburg for tlie purpose ol bartering it oil' to Northern men in tlie event the town was again occupied by tlie Union army. ltecent incursions of Yankees into the in terior of North Carolina make it apparent that little lias been done to defend this country, j and families of eastern North Carolina are moving with their negroes to a safer locality. It is improper for us to state what measures are now being taken to obstruct the Neuse, i Tar and Bonuoke rivers, but we may stale t hat the whole summer was permitted to pass away without an ellort to obstruct the livers. The most fertile districts of the South are pass ing from us, one by one, and tlie government w ill have reason to regret the blind and negli gent policy of surrendering them. On Thursday night several ot the Yankee prisoners routined in prison on the corner of i .South and t'arey streets, escaped from prison by lowering themselves from one of the win dows. They were missed at roll call next morning, and no satisfactory evidence tiring given by tlie guard, ('apt. Turner ordered them under arrest. They were routined in 1 Castle Thunder to await their examination.— None of tlie escaped prisoners have been heard from. The Savannah (Ga.) papers of the 20th say that two alHililiou gunboats and one mortar boat attacked Fort McAlister at Garnises Point on tlie Ogecliee river yesterday morn ing. After a tierce engagement tlie enemy re tired. The works arc still in perfect order.— Our loss w as three wounded. Fredericksburg not yet Shelled. New York, Nov. 25. A special dispatch to the Iierahl, from Acuuia Creek 24th. state that renorts from (.en. Burnside s army to-day represent every thing quiet ami without material change. The city of Fredericksburg is not yet shell ed, for reasons satisfactory to the commanding general. Preparations lor a further advance are steadily progressing, ami the present state ot expectancy will soon be relieved by prompt ami vigorous action. The army is in good condition, ready and anxious to move forward. The enemy is still in force on tin* opposite side I of the river, and improving the time to prepare for as vigorous a resistance to our crossing as possible. Locomotives and cars were placed upon the track here to-day, and the road will be open to the Potomac to-morrow. Rebel sympathizers still continue to cut the telegraph wires. Prom Tennessee. Nashvii.i.e, Nov. 24. There is a reliel brigade at Slielbyviile under Gen. Johnson. The Union men are making armed resistance h> the conscriptions in sev eral portions of Tennessee. There are 10.000 rebels at Tuliaboma. It is rumored that they are sending their seige guns to Murfreesboro’. Tile rebel force between Chattanooga and Murfreesboro’ is 00,000. The rebels are mov- ing their negroes and property South. Pour i Union men have been murdered in Wilson county by guerillas. Meeting of the North Carolina Legislature. Rai.f.ioh, N. C'., Nov. 18. The Legislature convened yesterday, and j Governor Vance sent in his message to-day. He takes strong ground for a vigorous prose- cutlon of the war, and proposes to reserve a force of 10,000 men for the State, to Ik- dis charged ill tlie spring, iu time for their farm ing operations, llow to raise this force lie leaves the Legislature to decide. No Rebels at Worrenton or its Vicinity. New Tons, Nov. 25. A special dispatch from hi gel's headquarters yesterday, to the Tribune,says:—"Trustnor- thy information received at these headquarters state that there wen- no reliel troops in War renton yesterday noon, nor at Bcrryvllle, Man chester and Snicker's Gap.” Rumor. New York, Nov. 25. There is a strange report in circulation that the real advance will not take place from Fredericksburg, but the movement to the Rappahannock is simple a feint, while the de cisive blow s will lie struck from another direc tion. Those who appear to believe the story cannot, however, give it any foundation. Jeff. Davis Orders United States Officers to be Executed. New York, Nov. 25. The Richmond Enquirer of the 22d lias the following: Executive Office, 1 Richmond, Va., Nov. 17, 1802.)' Lieut. Gen. T. J. Uolmet, Commanding the Mixxissippi Department. General:—Enclosed you w ill find a slip from the Memphis Daily Appeal of the 3d instant, containing an account purporting to be derived from the Palmyra, Mo., Courier, a Federal journal, of the murder of ten Confederate cit izens of Missouri by order of Gen. McNeil ol tile United States Army. You w ill communicate by (lag of truce with the Federal officer commanding that depart ment. and ascertain if the lads are as stated, and if they be so you are to demand the im mediate surrender of General McNeil to the Confederate authorities. And if this demand is not complied witli you will inform the same commanding officer that you ilre ordered to execute the lirst ten United States officers who may lie captured and fail into your hands. Very respectfully yours, Jefferson Davis. Rebel Speculations. New York, Nov. 25. The Petersburg, Va., Express of the 21st, says it seeins now pretty well ascertained that Gen. Burnside ha» withdrawn the hulk of his army from the Potomac to the Rappahannock. We presume that a corresponding movement has been made by Gen. Lee. The theatre of operations has again been changed, and Fred ericksburg is the route to Richmond, either feigned or really selected b$r the enemy. It is hard to sav what the latter intend to do. Geu. Lee has been trying to get a tight out of him for weeks, but in vain. If he makes the at tempt to get to Richmond there will necessari ly be another battle, ami a bloodier ouc than any fought yet Where or when it will Is* fought is pa-t our conjecture. Important Call from Jeff. Davis for Jackson to come to Richmond. New York. Nov. 25. The Herald's special dispatch from Harper's Ferry, dated the 24th, says: “News of inter est has reached me from Jackson's headquar ters as late as Saturday last. Jackson then had his headquarters at Berryvitle. His force was 30,000 moo, and the number of his guns sixty. Friday evening Jackson received the following telegram from Jeff. Davis: 'If you do not leave the Valley at once and (fine to help us detend Richmond, it will not lie worth your while to come to its defense at all.’ Jackson’s reply is not known, hut his forces were not in motion on Saturday.” Northern Virginia abandoned by the Rebels. Large Receipts from Taxes. New York, Nov. 25. A special dispatch to the Times, from Sigel's headquarters yesterday, says: “Such informa tion lias been received at these headquarters this afternoon as leaves no further room to doubt that tlie entire Northern portion of Yir- j giniu ha* been abandoned by the rebel troops. I filere are a few'of White’s guerillas roaming 1 about Leesburg, Mount Gilead, Martin-burg and vicinity. Jackson bas gone toward Rich mond. A special dispatch from Washington to the Tribune, says the receipts for revenue stamps at the office of the f otnmissioner o! Internal Revenue for the week ending Nov. 21 .amount ed to more than $2,300,000. 1 D In one town in New Hampshire alithe girls in the neighborhood turned out and ltu-k'd a hundred bushels of corn for a fanner wh"' boys were iu the army. BY TELEGRAPH. TO THE Portland Daily Press. FROM NEW ORLEANS. Representatives to lie Chosen to Congress. New York, Nov. 25. The steamer Roanoke, from New Orleans file 15th anil Havana the 20th, has arrived. Among her passengers are Gen. Arnold and stair en route to Boston. Gen. Arnold is suf fering under a paralytic shock. Military Governor Shepley lias issued a proe tarnation calling upon the loyal electors of the Island 2d Congressional District of Louisiana, to choose representatives to Congress, and lias appointed the 3d of December as a day for bolding the election. One hundred and twenty-four men of the 8th Vermont regiment, who weic captured the 4tli of Sept, by the rebels, were returned to New Orleans the 13th. Seven were shot by the rebels for having enlisted in New Orleans. Three former confederates who had enlisted in the 8th, alsoSergt. Mills and Private Spear, both of Royalton. were detailed at Vickburg, and four died during their captivity. Total 140. Gen. Butler lias seized and closed the Bank of New Orleans for sending $405,000 in specie within sixty days to the rebel government.— This specie had been previously reported to Gen. Butler as having been sent awnv, which was not tile fact. A cavalry reconnoisanee from Gen. Weitzel's force captured two cannon within four miles of Baton Rouge. The Delta of the 15th exposes the transac tions of Ed. Grantherim Co. witl- the rebels, and implicates the French consul. Steamer Hero put into Havana on the 10th for coal, having been seven days out from Phil adelphia for Minatitlan. The weather was fine at Havana. From Washington. AMIlMiTO>, AOV. Zo. The Commissioner of Federal Revenue has decided that an incorporated bank does not require a broker's license simply because it sells to its consumers its checks for a surplus of its funds accumulated in another bank, in another place or iu the same place. All parties desiring to introduce goods of any description within the jurisdiction of Gen. I)ix. must obtain from him a certificate that such articles are needed for military purposes, and request a clearance from the Treasury De partment, which is granted on such applica tion. Sutlers to the army within that juris diction arc now waiting for the promulgation of regulations governing the transportation of their goods. It is understood that the Quartermaster General will soon act for the War Department, performing duty similar to that discharged by Gen. Dix in connection with sutlers. Keening*—A dispatch received to-night from the army of the Potomac, says there is nothing of importance to communicate. President Buchanan in reply to Gen. Scott. Washington. Xov 25.. Ex-President Buchannu, iu the National In telligencer of to-day, closes the controversy between Gen. Scott and himself, and claims that he ha» already tarnished clear and distinct responses to all the allegations of General Scott. Mr. Buchanan says that lie should now have nothing more to add had Geu. Scott In his rejoinder confined himself to the topics embraced in hirce lor Richmond by way of Front Royal, leaving only a regi mentofcavalry at Winchester, instructed to follow in a few days. The probability is that our forces will occupy Winchester'in a few days, when the work of re-constructing the Baltimore Ohio R. R. will commence, and be completed in 20 days. Boldness of the Rebels. Ofitt's Cross Roads, Montgomerx, Nov. 25. J This morning at daylight, a body of rebel cavalry, sixty strong,entered Poolsvilie, seized Cherry and Sargent, the Government telegraph operators stationed there, in bed, parolled them and permitted them to telegraph their mishap to Washington. This boldness of the rebels has caused much excitement in this neighborhood. New York Market. New York. Nor. 25. Cotton—dull, and irregular sales of SCO bates at 65 (8/ 63 for middling uplands.

The paintings will well bear the strictest criticism, being in every respect truthful, accurate and highly finished, forming j a complete history of the present war, from the evacuation of Fort Moultrie, down to the great battle of Autietain. The artists must have had a work of no small difficulty to con tend with when they undertook to paint the various battle scenes anil tragic incidents with which their highly instructive entertainment is teeming. It would be impossible for ns to enumerate the large number of scenes presen ted to the beholder.but among those deserving the greatest uotice we may mention the 7th New ork regiment marching down Broadway, and the departure from Portland of the 1st Maine regiment. They are both master works j of painting producing a life like resemblance I to those exciting scenes truly astonishing. We advise everybody to visit ibis matchless entertainment. This afternoon an entertain ment will be given for the accomodation of children when they will he admitted for six cents each. The Advance of the Boston Papers. In another place we have referred to the in creased rates of the Journal. It appears that all the Boston dailies have agreed either to advance their rales or to diminish their size. The Journal has heretofore boon sold to news men for $1.50 per hundred, and the Herald for 07 cents. On and after Doe. 1—next Monday —the price for the former' will be $2.25 per hundred, and the latter $1.25. The Traveller and Transcript increase their rates; the Post, Courier and Advertiser, heretofore $8 per year, and three cents single, are to reduce j their size. The Herald says; This change lias been forced upon us, and j cannot be avoided, although we have strug gled against it. as it lias been our desire to fur- j nish the public with a cheap first class news- P'lper- But the fortunes of war have changed everything, and we must go with the current. Paper lias advanced from 10 to 17 cents per pound, while the Government levies a tax of 3 per cent, on advertising. We state these facts to the public that they may understand the reasons why the chance is made. The Republ ican State Committee of \ew Hampshire have Issued a call for a Con vention -representing all the people of the State who an* in favor of sustaining the Na tional Government in the vigorous and effect ive prosecution of the war, andof maintaining at all hazards, in their original integrity, the Constitution and Union oi the United States"; the Convention to lie liolden at Pjjenix Hall, Concord, on January I, 1863—to nominate candidates for Governor and RailroadCoinmls j sioncr. *5T”\Ve often hear persons of very high j pretensions, call Portland a “one horse tow n.” “a picayune place,” Ac., and have Invariably observed that suchjxtrson are generally adven turers,—“birds of flight," who have never con tributed a cent towards any public enterprise j that may tend to lienetit the place, or the pule 1 lie generly.

Messrs. Bartho’omoxv and Preston, the well-known Artists, a-'istcd by seve^gl of the loading Artists of the da have succeeded in representing oii’canvas* the great historical events of the times, and at a very large expense they have placed before the public not only a most correct and truthful representation of the.-e exciting sceucs, but by all pronounced in every respect, A WORK OF ART. The unseemly daubs which are generally produced for public Inspection under the name of Panorama*, have, in a gn at measure, shaken the confidence of the people: consequently, when a meritorious work is offered to their notice, it is frequently coiidcmcd without being seen. It in necessary, therefore, to in form all clashes that this Exhibition has met with the most unbounded success.having been exhibited w ith in the past few mouths to uo Jess than 300.000 SPECTATORS. This being its firs* exhibition in this eitr. the pro. prietors would inform the citizens that thev i tend exhibitin'..' it every evening for ONE WEEK, reiving i upon its intriiudc merits to create the same entbusf- j astic. patronage which its stay In anv other citv has never failed to produce.

POETRY._ [From the Continental Monthly.) ONCE. BY MRP. O. A. 8- BEALE. No matter when enough that moon and stars Shone as they shine to-night That tales of* desolation and ot wars, Of struggle and of blight, Like the low muttering* of a troublous dream, Flitting across the still and peaceful night, Glanced o’er my heart and thine! The music of the pine— The silver, witching stream An impress deeper, left upon our hearts. The murmuring soug fell soothinft on our ears; The silver stream with beauty charmed our eyes; And so we bade the tales of spear* aud darts, With all their train of agony and tears, Goto the winds; and leave us’ golden skies, And brook*, and reaching hills, and ‘lovers’ leaps,' With bold and rugged stou the word' Gather it in a knot of silken blue; Bind it all fondly with a nuptial cord, Unto the widowed present! bear it through Allchange—all chance! Love, friendship! hold it fast: Let it no more be wedded to the past! Aud human hearts through all life’s checkered scenes, Shall ever tarry ‘midway in their teens’! LEGAL NOTICES.

PRIVATE CONSULTATIONS.—Dr. Hughes has for a number of years confined his attention to diseases of a certain class. During his practice he has treated thousands of cases, and iu uo instance has he met with a failure. The remedies are mild, and there is.no interruption of business or change of diet.

Separate rooms, so that no one will be seen but the Dr. himself. His remedies cure disease when all other remedies fail; cures without dieting or restriction in the habits of the patient; cures with out the disgusting and sickening effects of most other remedies; cures new cases in a few hours; cures with out the dreadful consequent effects of mercury, but is sure to annihilate the rank and poisonous taint that the blood is sure to absorb, unless the proper remedy is used.
