FRIDAY MORNING, OCT. 11ith.
PONY NEWS.
"The news by the “ little horse’ is full of
“interest. The forward movement of Cen.
McClellan tells:the world that the disaster at
Bull’s Ran is thoroughly repaired; that the
American Army of the Potomac is organized;
that it is fairly instru-tedand_ready and fit
to meet the enemies of the Republic. It assures the loyil people of the country that
active operations are to commence ; that in
fact the war is but just begun. All that has
been done hithérto was preparatory to grand
results. Everything is now in a condition
for good and efficient service. The preparations have been on a scale of upsurpassed
mgnitud>, and much tine wus requisite,—
The people have been impatient at the delay
in crushing out the rebellion, They desired
to see the enemies of free institutions overwhelmed in» moment. It was the natural
impulse of patriotic hearts. Many complain‘ed ofinaction in the Government. They did
not see, nor could they comprehend, the her_culean labo:s that devolved’ upon the Government in furnishing supplies and transport.
ation to an immense army, and the long continued and tedious work of perfecting the
soldiérs in the art and science of war. The
Nation ‘had long been at peace: There was
nothing to excite the people to military parsuits, and the war like spirit of the nation
was dormant when this wicked rebellion
broke out. Besides the Cabinet of the last
administration had dispersed the navy over
the globe, and moved the contents of the
national armories within the. grasp of the
malcontents, as if in preparation for the unholy crusade against the Government.
When we take into consideration these
facts, it is not to be wondered ut that much
time has been expended tg supply the wants
of the Union. An army, a navy, snd munttions of war had to be gathered .anew—
created we might say out of nothing. It has,
been done, and every one conversant with
the raising and equipment of armies will say,
it has been done in good time. The frosty
nights of October have checked the diseases
common ins the South during the summer
months, and the Soldiers of the Republic are
teady to take advantage of the virtnes. of
climate for the benefit of the country. The
army of the.-Potomac has begun to advance
upon its fues. The great struggle is te begin,
and that immediately. The ports of the
South effectually blockaded, are to be visited which one or when we do not know till
the blow is struck, by a powerful armament
‘uader Gen. .Shermap. Tle cool weather
renders a landiug in the malarious districts
on the Gulf sufe to horthern constitutivas,
and the: war authorities are about to profit
by the seasdn without delay. In a few days
-we shall expect to hear that a descent has
been mode upymsome important .seaport in
Rebeilia, anda point establisiied as the basis
of inland operations. We shall expect to
_ hear also that the troops of the Gulf States
concentrated in Virginia will demand to be
marched to the defense of their own bomes,
_and-that the doctrine of secession will be
curried out .according to their desire, and
furthernioré ei). McClellan will make as
easy a conquest of Baatern Virginia as he
wasg.deing-in the West when called to the
vominand of the Army of the Potomac.
‘The pony brings intelligence that the rebels
in Sowth Carolina look upon the taking of
Fort Hatteras with manitest disrelish. It
is » point d’appui of grectimportance to the
Federal cause; and a decided loss to the
enemy. .
Fremont (is energetically at work to put
down the bridge-burniog Vandals im Missouri,
and notwithstanding the machinationa
against him, he seems to be popular with bis
soldiers. Confidence in and affection fur a
commander is half the battle. At ‘the latest
dates the ¥ederalists and rebels in Missouri
were fast approaching “x detisive action,
May we bear of nothing but victories in favor of the Union. fs
The tone of the news assured by us ie, that
the season.. for .exciting. events has come.

THE CuLoKED MAN im AFRics.—Mr. W.
8. Anderson, « colored American, who emigrated to Liberia nine years ago, has made
him a good plantation of 200 acres, ove half
of it devoted te sugar growing, yielding a
thousand pounds to the acre, as good as the
Cubs sugar. He alsoygrows large quantities
of coffee. equal to the best Java. He lately
sent supplies of his eugar and coffee to New
York, to show what may be done by the civThe soil
and climate are most favurable to the production in large quantities, with very little
comparative labor and expense, of many of
the most important. staples, and there is reason to hope that the world may yet derive a
large part of its supplies of cotton, sugar,
coffee, &c., from a continent which has hitherto been for the most part, unproductive.
The best population for that region is the
American black, who’ has acquired intelligeuce and acertain measure of pride and
self reliance in his association with civilized
communities. But he is apparently averse
to emigrating to the land to which he naturally belongs, and where he might achieve by
own energy, material prosperity and moral
political elevation. , His. prejudice against
Africa, however, is probably the result of
his i-norance of the rea) attractions and advantages which it holds owt te his race, and
time, we will hope, may yet correct his views
on this subject.
te” Church members seem-to be as numerous in the Southern army ag among our
troops. The Charleston Mercury says: “It
is an interesting fact, as illustrative of the
character of our army, that one of the
churches of the Convention in Spartanburg
District, bas nu less than thirty-four of its
members in the Southern army.. Iu one ot
the compunies from that district there are
sixty wembers ef Baptist churches, and nut
one of those killed in the late battle.’
te The New York ‘I'ribune recommends
the ase of wooden shoes in this country. It
says the advantages of wooden shoes are
raany. They allow no water to penetrate us
do leather ones ; they ure niturally dryer,
keep the feet warmer, they prevent diseise
by promoting the requisite and saditary perspiration, they have been known to effce!
cures of patients where salt baths and the
use of medicine kave been unavailing ;
and lastly, they are far cheaper than leather
shoes.
He Woutp Have tis JoKke.—In the
Methodist Conterenee, in Massachusetts, the
examiuatiun of elders was in progress, when
the name of a Chuplaiu of a House of Correction being called, the Presiding Elder remarked that ‘‘ashe had an increasing cupgregation, who wére all, to a man, under conviction, bis return te hie appoimtment was
ununimously desired, and it wus hoped ne
would succed in converting many of them as
they were very constunt in attendance cn his
preaching.”
Ee” A young Creole lady,.a teacher in
Charleston, 8. C., spplied to the bunk where
her little savings were deposited, but was refused her own until she’ would promise that
thenroney would not be used against the
Contederate cuuse. Her Freneb blood gave
her a claim upon the French Consul, whose
influeuce secured her her rights, withoutany
such declarati: n.
SUBJUGATED.—Tho; Plumas Standard, a
Jeft. Davis peace organ, bas been subjugated
by the people of that county; and forced to
surrender, for want of patronage. It is rumored that it will shortly reappear.ag an independent sheet.
