Ln thie emergencyy it le the duty of all the citizens | te Merten to the appeal put forth by the Presideat, and | ft give efficient and cheerful aid in filling op the | (Qinsed ranks of our armies. It fe due to our bre- | (aren in the field, who have battled eo heroically for the fag of our country, the Union of the States, and to aphold the Constitution, thet prompt and volan- tary assistance should be sent te them in this mo- west of their peril. They went forth in the fall con- @éence thet they would at all times receive from Unets fellow-citizens ot home s generous and efficient @uyport. Every emotion of pride and patrictiem eheuld impel us to give this by volantary and cheer- fal contributions of men and money, and net bye fareed conscription er coercive action om the part of the ereremat. The President olso advises the citizens of the seve- Ge] Btates, that, in the event of the failure to raise the quotas sesigned to them, « draft shell be msde for the Geficiency, to commence on the 5th day of January wert. Net only does duty to our soldiers in the field, and the hopor of the nation, demand thet we shall con- ttaue to All our armies by voluntary enlistments, but the interests of a!l classes in society will be promoted by the success of that system. The unequal burthens eonseription unavoidably inflicts on a portion efenriets, vot only canse great distress and misery to | {odtviduals, but are more hurtful tothe whole com tanity, than the equalized distribution of the cost and secrifices of volunteering, which more perfectly Adinste itself to the condition of all elasses. The | tennties which will be paid by tho General Govern tment, and in this State, by the Government of | Rew York. are extremely liberel, and much larger than these heretofore given. They will aid the vol- nateere, who shall enter the service, to make immediate and ample provision for those dependent once them. J expect oll classes of our citizens to as- est {im reerniting volunteers cailed for from this ate, by their infiuence, and by liberal contribu- tions ; and | call upon all State officials to give every | eesistence in their power to promote enlistments | inte our armies; and thus save our citizens from the | tmoqualities, irritations, and sufferings of the draft ; ; end at the same time animate eur soldiers by an | hibition of eympatby and patriotic devotion, and give etrength to our armies in their battles for the preser- vation of the sion | { &e. | Hosane Skraoce, army of the Potomac. A Gluace at the Field. Correapomtene of the N.Y. Suny Mergers Ferry, Oct. 19,-The result of the uriil tent caries of operations, in Ceatral Virginia, for the last tow days, is to bring the first line of defences of | the Artny of the Potomec to the Potomac, with e tew- porary offentive line, extending to Broad Kun rive: where the bulk of the armjy 1s disposed. Nothing is | qoaltively known of the rebel army, later reconaois- eances having failed to locate them om eny position worth ef the Bell Kun Mountains, The presomp- tive evidence is; thet Generel Lee, hav ing failed to turn eur fienk, dasing the | three daye' operations ending oo Thuredur, | base retired tothe Rappahannock. with Lie left wing extending towards the Blue Ridge. These positions ere almost relatively equal, either srmy being in o condition to advance or retire, the topography of the country allowing them opportaniiies for indulg- | fag in thie game of chequers. There are not want- tng these, however, who see in Lee's recent mevements, a feint to deceive our generals, and eover the forwarding of reinforcements to General It ts even eonfidentiy stated that the army is now far advanced to wards the ‘Southwest, and certainly tue large forces that are ascertained to have been left at Gordons- ville and on the lines of the Rappahannock aad Rap'- dan tocheck our advance in thei direction, render thie view bighly probable, Gen, Mea intentions of course, involved ip profound mystery, which I eball not attempt to penetra'e. Secretary Stanton arrtved in camp from Washington on Sunday night, end had « midnight conference with the commander- fn-chief, extending far into the emall hours of the morning. Since then rumore of active movements ere current, and it is certain that our army fe gtadnally advancing ards the Rapiden, im therebel rear, On Srnday] @ ebarpartillery fight eccurred between the Union and Kebol cavalry about three miles beyond Manasses Junction, en the War- trenton Road. As the eremy iargely ontnombered as, one forces fell back and rested for the night with an intention to push.forward the reconnaissance im the morning. Bat seon after daylight on Monday, Ih was | aacertained that the enemy bed anticipated us, and ‘D @etzed. All the rumers that theencm> bad crossed! Whereas, {tls evident that, although the eymro- | have waited until we got cut ef ow diicuity, | the doubt thet bangs over Lee's locality. « the Potomac are atterly groundless, Large bodies had passed through into Louden Valley, and this is Supposed to have occasioned the reports of another invasion of Maryia: Nothing appears to have been farther from Lee's intention, Whether the troops in Loudon Valley wii page into the Shenan doah Valivy, remains to be seen, The mobabiiity of this hee given risa to the auspiciom shat @ portion of Lee's army may pase down the “hevendoah ito Western Tennessee, and gobble up Burneideon their way to Rr at Chattanooge, I give these ramors for what they are worth, without voucbiog for their eccureey, Their existence and contradictory nature | iitastrates the abrolute ignorance that prevaile re- Specting the locatian ot Gen. Lee's army known whether (jen, Meade ie mystified or not, but we thet he is. at ell evemts, no bungier. Since the esyture | and reeaptare of Charlestown, on Saturiar, no rebele have been even in the “neutrsi country" in thie vi- einity, The river at this place has risen cons) ters | bly by the recent rains, and Willnot be fordable for e few daye at least, during which the question of North @rn tavesion may be allowed to rrat. It ie certain thet both armies were deceived as to each other's number. Lee evidently believed that General Meade wee weaker then he really was, and om the other hand it is equally cloar thet onr rear Wee at no sine attacked by more than e stall portion of the rebel army, The resuit cf the ten days’ operations ,have won for General Meade the hichest confidence of the army. It is now seen that he anticipated every emergency, and provided for every danger, The enemy advanced bouuding and yelling from poiut to point, comfident of their ability to get in our rear, crnsh onr army, and capture Wesbington. But at every move they were confronted by a superior Union force, until we at lest @rined & point near Centreville, where it would be madness to ettack ue, Thea the tables were tuned, and we became the pursuers, our booming cannon following the flying rebels to the gorge of Thorough fare Gap. The seceasioniete in Haltimore coufidently prediet thet Lee ill advance agsin, as soon ashe gete hie army together and im position. They expect thet Ewell will advance towards pel FAwerd's | Ferry, and join Hill's corps in Maryland. The prepa | rations of the military autborities point to « eontin- feney of thiskind, Gen, Couch ie adopting mese- ores with Generals Kelley and Rulliven, to protect the Camberland Valley from invation, Bosinesso all Kinds hes been euspended at Harper's Ferry, No liver, Martineburg and [uffield, and the wounded, hospital stores and supplies, have been sent north of the Potomac, Everything ie in readiness to resume at the shortest notice the line of the Monocacy, and the activity extends to Chambersture, Ilagerstown, and other places in the Cumberland Valley, This ts eiguifieant, but may only indicate a praiseworthy de- termination to provide for any possible emergency. Up to the present time the regular traine on the Ral timore and Ohio Railroad continue running. Guards ere stationed et al! exposed points, and every care is taken te provide for the ecamfort and sf.ty of pas- eengere. T.
