From the congratulatory address of Jeff Davis to his soldiers of Chickamauga, the world is informed that on the 14th inst. he was at the “headquarters” of Bragg’s army. From the Richmond journals, however, we discover that this visit of the rebel head chief was not limited to a stump speech; for it appears that the re- doubtable Bishop General Polk has been super- seded by Longstreet, and that D. H. Hill has been supplanted by Breckinridge. Hill and Polk on the rebel side, in the late struggle, have thus shared the fate of MeCook and Orit- tenden on our side. Our two unfortunates, it is charged, ran away when they should have stood their ground; and the rebel two, it is broadly hinted, were standing still when they should have been helping the routed columns of Longstreet. It is further rumored that as General Thomas, for his admirable bravery and military abilities in the late battle, has been promoted to the place of Rosecrans, so it is probable that Longstreet, from similar con- siderations, will step into tbe shoes of Bragg. These military changes, however effected and expected, are but incidental to the great object of this mission of Davis to Georgia. His cause and his fortunes are staked upon Bragg’s army, or, a8 he suggestively styles it, “the Army of Tennessee.” He says to the sol- diers of that army:—Defenders of the heart of our territory, your movements have been an object of interest, anxiety and hope, Our cause depends on you.” In these five words— “our cause depends on you”—we have the confession that a decisive defeat of Bragg’s army will indeed be a death blow to the rebel- lion. The late Chattanooga Rebel, now pub- lished in Georgia, earnestly contends that the recent battle, resulting in the maintenance of his position at Chattanooga by Rosecrans, se- cures to him the great advantages of a sub- stantial victory. The Rebel editor, warming up with his subject, argues that if our army be not speedily dislodged the worst consequences may be feared; for as sure “as there is any surety in the future the spring of ’64 must sce us far from the borders of Georgia northward or near to the verge of destruction.” “Food and rai- ment,” he continues, “are our needs. We must have them. Kentucky and Middle Tennessee can only supply them. Better give up the sea- coast; better give up the Southwest; aye, better give up Richmond without a struggle, and win these (food ‘and raiment) than to lose the golden fields whose grain and wool are our sole hope.” This oracle speaks from experience and posi- tive knowledge, and as one speaking by autho- rity. He Pleads that Bregg’s late victory amounts to nothing; that the reoccupation of Tennessee and Kerftucky has become the one paramount and vital necessity to the rebellion, more important tothe cause than the seacoast or the capital of the contederacy—its facto- ries, foundrics, mills, magazines, public ar- chives, rebel scrip and all. These are doubtless the inspirations and the cunyictions of Davis; and his mission to Georgia, therefore, is the concentration of all his available forces from every quarter, and of every description, for a speedy and overwhelming descent upon Gen. Thomas at Chattanooga. In this connec- tion we incline to the opinion that in pushing Gen. Meade’s army back to Manassas Junction, and in utterly destroying the railroad between that point and the Rapidan, some forty or fifty miles, Gen. Lee has gained the opportunity de- sired of sending off one-half bisremaining army to the support of Bragg. Why not? It is eati- mated that a month will be required to repair this broken railroad, and that without it General Meade cannot move his army over the desolated country before him. But at the end of anothef month the blockade of a Virginia winter will be upon him, and thus even now Lee may consider Richmond secure till spring, and he may accordingly detail twenty, thirty or forty thousand men to the support of Bragg without further apprehension from Meade. But here we are constrained again to put these questions to our War Office:—Is there no other road to Richmond than that by way of Culpepper or Fredericksburg? Have we no choice but an utterly destitute country in the matter of food for, man or beast, and full of natural obstacles and dangers to an invading army? Have the James and York rivers ceased to be navigable? Is it im- possible to cut the railways in North Caro- lina, which connect the army of dee with the army of Bragg? Is the grand Army of the Potomac henceforth ta remairi idle till spring because of the destruction of the Orange Rail- road? Our impression is, that from November till February is the most favorable season for military operations on the Richmond penin- sula; for those low grounds are not only free from malarid Wuring this period, but are often so hardened by the frost as to be passable for artillery where they are impassable, except by bridges, all through the summer. In every view of the subject, it is to be hoped that if the Army of the Potomac cannot now advance overland by way of Culpepper it will be per- mitted to make at least a powerful diversion up the Richmond peninsula, or on the south side In it hd our gfmy at Chattanooga. The next thing in importance to the defeat of Lee is the detention of bis army for the de- fence of Richmond. - Ustox Prigoxers gr Rrcuonp.—During the Revolutionary war the Baglish, exasperat- ed by the determined bravery of our people, revenged themselves upon the unhappy priso- ners who jell into their power. All will re- member how dreadfhlly those confined on the English Jersey prison sbip and at Wallabout Bay were treated. The rebels at Richmond seem determined to otitdo, in their cruelty to- wards our men, even the English. Nothin; more inhut or unmanly be trated to fersons. We have heard much of the chivalry of the South, but must deem that it was al] a name, an idle sound, gee them acting as they do to- % nion prisoners. The j{ghel or tured by us have ever Beal treated Wi ra - ness. The South should endeavor to Im the example, if only a5 a matter of policy. Orenation’ x Tixas—We see it stated in several of the journals that General Banks has landed at Point Isabel. This must be a mistake. There is no official asgurange of the fact, Uprising of the North. We publish in another column a very inic- resting article from the Toronto Globe upon tho | pew call of President Lincoln for three hundred thousand more volunteers. This article takes the ground that the North has;mever yet ex- hibited any signs of a lack of determination to fight out the war; that, on the contrary, tie | spirit of our people rises superior to every re- verse, and that, as ali classes are interested in procuring these three hundred thousand volun- teers, they will undoubtedly soon be placed in | aig for France! the Prince has not yet accepted, the field. This is avery sensible and correct view of the subject, and we congratulate our Canadian friends upon having at last iearned something in regard to the patriotism and re- sources of the loyal States, Not less sensible and correct are the state- ments that almost all the wealth of this country will be concentrated for the pur- pose of procuring volunteers, and that in the troops to be raised. under this call alone we shall have “an immense army, nearly equal to the entire number of men capable of bearing arms in the whole of Canada.” As we have already nearly a million of seldiers in our va- rious armies, it follows that our forces will soon’ exceed three or four times the number of able- bodied men in Canada. The English govern- ment should take this fadt into serious eonside- ration. In the event of a war botween this country and England, what would become of poor Canada under such circumstances as these? Why, our three hundred thousand new volun- teers would overwhelm her, while our greater veteran army would remain intact to dispose of the rebels and of any foreign troops who might be sent to the assistance of the rebels. We usually speak of our immense army; but, in fact, we have half a dozen immense armies, and wo cap raise as many more of the same size, if necessary, from oir population, which is not yet visibly affected by the tremendous drains made upon it by volunteering and draft- ing. Half an hour’s walk upon Broadway will convince any one of the truth of this assertion. Indeed, we risk nothing in stating that the soldiers wo have hitherto | given to the govern- ment are merely the surplusage of our popula- tion. Nay, even our surplus fund of citizen soldiers is by no means exhausted. Upon any gala day, like the day of the Ruasian reception, we parade several thousand militia in this city alone—a much larger army than General Scott commanded at Chippewa, and a better dis- ciplined army than that whioh defeated the British in our Revolutionary war. On the side- walks, looking at this parade, are enough able- bodied men to make a full army corps; and another army or two could be found, at the same time, in our stores, offices and manufacto- ties. A regiment of stock brokers could be col- lected in Wall street any fine day; and perhaps it is great pity that such a regiment is not marched off forthwith. If the Provost Marshal had “but” the requisite authority he could easily pick out a good regiment from our theatrical performers, and the regiment might be swelled to a brigade by impressing the gen- tlemen in the audiences. We have a very full army of politicians in this city, and could bag a division or so on any election day. Now, al- most all of these persons are unnecessary peo- ple—that is to.say, we could get along very well without them, and in we could get along a great d better without them. What folly it is, therefore, to talk about the exhaustion of the fighting material of the North. Our Canadian contemporary strikes the right key again when it asserts that every one is now interested in raising the volunteers called for by the President. “The merchant with a large business,” says the Globe, “the father with a large family, the man who holds his own indi- vidual life to be many times the value of the Union, and the great army of contractors feed- ing fat on munitions of war—all will be so many recruiting officers for the army of the United States. Even the peace democrats, the opponents and haters of the war, will be pressed into the service, and compelled by the all- powerful law of self-preservation to aid; for, in case of failure, they are as amenable to the conscription as the rest.” We bave no doubt that, as human nature is constituted, all these selfish motives will come into play and assist in drumming up volunteers; but we-prefer to de pend rather upon our patriotic citizens, who love the Union better than self or pelf, and we therefore urge them to devote themselves bearti- ly, earnestly and immediately to the work. The present crisis of the war, and the threaten- ing aspect of European politics, should be suf- | ficient incentives without appealing to the fear | Of the conscription. Let the necessary bounties be contributed forthwith, and our quota of the vol be supplied as soon as possible. We have no time to waste. Recruits will be doubly valuable if they come quickly. Every man owes it to his country either to go tothe war himself or do his utmost to induce others to volunteer. The former course is preferable. The latter must be adopted by all who can re- concile it with their consciences to stay at home. Let us have another, and # greater, up- rising of the North. @Narotzons tax Tarp anp Maxnotay.—The answer made by Prince Maximilian must have greatly annoyed the Emperor Napoleon.

THE NOMINATION OF CANDIDATES, HOW THE DEMOCRATIC UNION WORKS, DISSATISFACTION IN THE CAMP. “WKEON ORGANIZATION. THE Combinations for the Decem- ber Election, ‘Tho past week has been pregnant of nominations. All the partios and factions of partics held thoir conven- tions, and, with one or two oxceptions, candidatos for all the county aud judicial positions to be filled at the No- vember election woro put tn nomination, The union be- tween Tammany and Moz rt was fully consummated upon the baais of an cqual division of the spoils in tie N+ vember and Decomber elections, and a jolut ticket hag accordingly been put forward for the suffrages of the people, in opposition to the republican candidates and the candidates of halt a dozen n-w organizations claiming to be the only true representatives of the democratig prin tiple. It would be idle to agsert that the democratic ticket, as issued by the managers of Tammany and Mozart, has given satisfaction to tue masses, There is a powerfiil o9- position to the manner in which that ticket was produced, and also a widespread aversion to some of the candidates: on the grounds of fitness and honesty. ‘This fecling of dissatisfaction bas assumed @ practical shape, and the prospect ahead fs anything but so cheerfal as it micht have been for the democratic managers had they paid mare respect and doverence to the wishes of tho poople, ‘ho pirticular cause of trouble appears to bave been tha cuceremonious * cutting” of some of the outgoing Judges, who desired the honor of renomiuation to their old positions, These judicial gentlemen ‘are Messrs. Bos- worth, Hilton and McCarthy, whose friends cre legion, and who assert that thoy will not permis “their favor- ites to be “slaughtered” withowt a slrugule at reialintion, The threo slighted Judges have boon ficoordingly taken up by the McKeou orgavization, and the républicans IMko adopted the same sys- tem of tacvies by hich B. former yours. shey, succeded so well in oldcting ti Wine At the late meeting of the Republican Judiciary Conventirn, Bosworth, Hilton and McCarthy were nominated for the ‘Superior, Common Pleas and Marine courts almost with. ‘out opposition from the friends of the orthodox republt- oan cundidates, It is therefore by no moans certain that the democratic ‘slate’ will not be broken in respect te thore three nominations at the November election. Im addition to this contest on the judiciary somina- tins there is another caxge of trouvle growioz out of the Supervisorsbip, Mr. Walter R che ia the regular democratic nomince of Mozart and Tammany Halle—a fact which has caused somo indignation among the Ger- mao community, who desired the pice for Courclimaa Repp:r,one of thetr own esp Vial favorites. The German democrats have therefore nominated Mr, Repper§ end the McKeonites have endorsed the same gentleman for (ho position, Mr. Repper po-seases considerable popa- larity among the Germans, au@ the fact of his being oa the McKoon ticket is therefore likely to add weight to thut ticket, and to Dring the Germ: vote into the goale im favor of sessra. Bosworth, Hiliun and Mc nrthy. If, therefore, the MeKeon organization ure in carnest and intend to rum their ticket aed speud money on boxes and ballots, it 1s difficult to calculnte on the ulimate re suit of the election. Sporting men are froeiy betting their money ‘that McCunn and Richardson will not be elected—a fact which is highly significant, TAB. CANDIDAT:.8.
