Et-ITOB ...Associate Et.tob Let oar Troops in Western Virginia ffo South. The Philadelphia Bulletin of the 11th inst., announces that the probable destination of most of the new volunteer regiments of Pennsylvania, will be the West. We donbt this., somewhat. We cannot conceive that oar Government will be so foolish as to pay transportation on Western soldiers to fight in the East and on Eastern soldiers to fight in the West. The job of opening the Mississippi river to its mouth, and of punishing the traitors residing in its lower allies, belongs exclusively to the Northwest The humbling of Memphis, Natches and New Orleans, will afford the utmost pleasure to our gallant volunteers, if the Government will only permit them to give all their attention to the rebels of those regions, instead of calling them into the mountains of Western Virginia to defend a portion of country which ought to be protected by Western Pennsylvania. The mountaineers of that oid Commonwealth are accustomed to the climate, and traveling over the ragged country, and would not suffer anything in comparison with those troops who have always lived on the prairies, and in a climate much milder than is found on the Allegheny mountain peaks. If the Government really designs sending troops West, let them be the Indiana and Ohio troops who have endured such hardships and fought so nobly in Western Virginia, and supply their places with the new recruits from Pennsylvania. The troops to go South are likely to have some severe field fighting before the rebels are driven out of Kentucky and Tennessee. It certainly were more an act of wisdom to take troops who have been frf queutly under fire and never flinched, who have demonstrated by their conduct in battle that they can be depended on, to do that fighting than to keep them in fortifications not likely to be attacked, and put new troops in ha field. The campaign in Western Virginia is virtually closed for the winter, and for a long time to come, if General McClelJan prosecutes the war with a vigor commensurate with the means placed at his command. It is due to the gallant soldiers who have fought and won the battles it thut section, and who are about the only troops in the field that can really be said to have been under fire without breaking that they be brought home and sent South with the Grand Army of the We3t. Give us the Indiana and Ohio troops now in Western Virginia, and the Mississippi valley will be purged ef rebels by the first of next January, and New Orleans will be opened as a regular port of entry, at which England and France may procure and ship cotton to their heart's content They are entitled to this mark of approval by the government. While regimeut after resciinent, although supplied with all the comforts and many of the luxuries of life, were in an open state of mutiny on the Potomac, and some even sent home in disgrace on account of their insubordination, oar brave boys on the Alleghanys were enduring hardships and sufferings that rivaled the trials of our f ithera in the Revolution, without murmuring, and "though almost naked, have been ever ready to move forward." Snail these brave men be compelled to spend the winter in thole mountain gorges with no enemy to battle save tue cold when others not so deserving are wiuniug laurels on the t Mississippi ? We trust the government wilt j a ji. au reward ineir put service, out that ir it has determined on Heading troupe Wsatt, it will be those who Legitimately belong there, and who, on many battle fields, have proved their courage and discipline. gg&,New York has now in the field and being organized, 84,992 men. Of these 33,800 men are two years volunteers, and 28,677 are three years men. The remaining 22,615 are scattered over the State un. organised, and many "regiments" so called in the Adjutant's report, have from Wv to fifty men. If all the field officers of I be unorganised regiments were mustered into the service, New York would have two or three regiments of Colonels and Majors. The quota of New York wili never Le full until her sons are willing to serve the country In some less capacity than as field officers. Rssel Caftain Ujtdbr Arrest. --A scouting party from the 31st Indiana Regiment, stationed at Henderson, arrested, last Wednesday, a man who was recognized as a Captain in the rebel army.

FRIDAY MORNING..............OCTOBER 18 ———————

The County Jail.

Several years ago, this county at a heavy expense, built a jail, which, at the time, was considered a model for durability and convenience. Experience has proven that it has only one quality of a good prison; that is, the prisoner is safe so far as escape is concerned, but the health of those confined seems never to have been taken into consideration when the jail was built. No sunlight penetrates the cells, no ventilation is afforded except by the vault beneath, and the dampness penetrates the very bones of the prisoners. No one can look upon the prisoners who are brought into court, without coming to the conclusion that they have been confined in a dark and unwholesome place. We believe the law considers all men innocent until found guilty, and the reason why persons are confined, charged with crime, is, that they may appear for trial at the proper time. Punishment ought not to be inflicted before a man's guilt has been determined. We make these remarks because we believe that men incarcerated in our jail for six months are more severely punished than they would have been if they had spent a year in the State's Prison, where even the vilest criminals have enough of God's free air and employment for their minds and bodies. Our county jails throughout the State, should have prison yards attached, where the prisoners could safely be permitted to take the exercise necessary for the preservation of health; and it would also be well if workshops could be established, wherein the prisoners might not only find employment, but manufacture articles, the proceeds of which would partially pay the current expenses of the jails. It may safely be said that the jail of this county is the most unhealthy and inconvenient of any in Indiana, and the State, when it places a man within its damp walls, not only robs the prisoner of his liberty, which he has justly forfeited, but impairs his health and hastens his death. The law can only take life by the way it has devised—the hangman's knot. It has no right to injure the health of those charged with crime, or to shorten their lives, even an hour. In the name of humanity, let us have a prison, where even the murderer and the highwayman may look up to Heaven, and feel that His free air is the common blessing of the "just and unjust." ———<>——— THE ARCTIC EXPEDITION.—Dr. Hays has returned from the Arctic Expedition, on which he sailed fifteen months ago. The letter from Dr. Hays to Moses Grinnell, discloses the fact that the vessel did not penetrate Smith s Sound, and that the purpose of the expedition has failed. We have never been able to discover what would have been the practical fruits of the expedition if it had been "successful.''— Kane, the gallant martyr to science, gave his life for the purpose of discovering a Northwest passage, and now Sontag is added to the list of victims to the insane idea of sailing from East to West through an Arctic Sea. In the name of humanity, let this Arctic Expedition be the last. What is to be gained by discovering that there may sometimes be an almost inaccessible passage, near the North Pole, between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans? It is not expense, great as it is, but the hazard of life, which should prevent any further expeditions of this kind. What could we gain by knowing that the waters round the North Pole are free from ice? What equivalent to the life of the most humble seaman on the voyage? ———<>——— Tub Entbbprise of our N. Y. Contkmpobakibs. We have often alluded to the character of " news " telegraphed and written by " special correspondents " of the NY. Sensation Dailies. The Commercia1 .Advertiser is one of the foremost New York papers in disseminating the productions of its " reliable " correspondents. That journal has dispatched one of its corresponding corpse to Kentucky, aud that gentleman daily writes and telegraphs the result of his observations to the Commercial. We extract the following from a recent letter. 1 1 will be " news H to our readers : " Nearly midway between Louisville and Paducah, and a short distance below Evansville, lad., the Edgefield and Kentucky Railroad terminates on the Ohio. This may be regarded as our third base. It extends south by east from Henderson, Ky., to NashvlUs, Teun, 140 miles. Neither party has yet made auy great efl'urt to obtain possession of that lius probably because ita Northern terminus ia a place al no conaetuci.. But it is different r Louisville $Sf ia 0ur notice of the e ck soldiers oo O'Riley's wi.irf boat, we should have uoticed tbe fact that the ladled, y their kiud aUeutions, have done very much toward relieving tbem,and we are certain that their kindness is appieciated by the unfor- ! tonate men. But the ladies wili admit, that j , . , . . , . the soldiers could be better cared for in the ' marine hospital, where, under the immediate charge of Mr. Cook, the steward, and Dr. De Brulei , the hospital physician, tbey would speedily be restored to health aud sent to their respective regiments stEVTon's MoTKSit.

Martial law tin-., ieeu proclaimed in Henderson, and a pass is now required from the Provost Marshal to leave the city.

Another Exploit of Julius Jenks— A Den of counterfeit Telegraphers Broken up—The Scoundrels Killed and their Instruments, Horses and

Accoutrements captured. Some time ago information was transmitted to headquarters of a Utile scheme of the rebels at some point on the Hannibal and St. Joseph railroad, the party bringing the information Julius Jenks, who has figured Jn tbese columns before as a consummate detective officer of the sovernment having first assured himself of the entire correctness of the information which brought him to the city. The scheme to which we refer, was that interesting operation, whereby a man skilled in telegraphic matters, finds a secluded soot of srround nndsr the wires, and attaches to them fine "guys" and intAnrlarf for other ears. Our friend Julius elicited the fact that one enterprising rebel was engaged in the pleasant task, but the sequel will show that he bad afterwards to deal with two. He had found, too, that the rebel operator was a most industrious fellow, who worked and watched industriously, no matter what t ie weather, or the day, but as if he had first class situation, and was working for better wages than is generally paid to more honest operators. Having learned all that was necessary, Julius reported himself in the proper quarter, and left this place about a week ago, with instructions to put an end at all hazards to the dastardly work. He was accompanied by another young j man, used like himself, to deeds requiring j great endurance, daring and assiduity. Ju- j lius has returned to St. Louis, bringing all the telegraphic implements, horses and ; equipments belonging to the itinerant tele- j graphic operators, two having been discov- j ed at their traitorous work, and killed. The narrative of the affair is as follows : Capt. Jenks and his companion having stealthily approached the designated spot in the woods, discovered the rebels. He gave the WOrd to fire, and at the same time fired himself, sending a bullet through the body of one cf the scoundrels, killing him instantly. His companion, George, unfortunately missed the other rebel who, quick as thought, rushed upon him and cut him through the neck with a large knife, making a severe if not fatal wound. On the instant this wound was given the Captain fired the second time, sending a bullet through the head of the rebel, who fell dead on the spot. Captain Jenks then dragged the dead bodies to Fish river.about thirty yards distant, and threw them in. By this time George bad bled almost to death, and Julius found himse'.f in a fix. He tore bis shirt into strips and succeeded in staunching the wound of bis comrade until they arrived at a place where assistance could be procured. From thence the wounded man was sent home, and, as be fore stated, Julius Jenks. having done good service to his country, came on to St. Louis with captured property, which now awaits a claimant perhaps.

Did we look to our : Eastern friend3 for protection ? No ; we started two or three more regiments to defend Washington, Baltimere, Philadelphia i and New York ; sent sir or eight to keep , the rebels out of Louisville, and oi gantzed a State Legion to defend our owu homes, Il was all done without any display of red tape. The thick-headed Reporter for the j Associated Press gravely telegraphs from I Washington that New Hampshire is the first ' State which has completed her levy of troops under the President's requisition. This Rip Van Winkle seems to hav.- suddenly aroused from the profound slumber in , which he has been indulging for some ; weeks past. We suggest that he bile his i finger to ascertain if he be really awake ; now. There is scarcely a State in the North- ! west whose quota of troops is not full, and 1 some,like Kansas, have almost doubled their quota weeks ago. Could the Government : furnish arms as fast as called for, our own 1 8tate would have 8,000 or 10,000 more than her quota in the field forthwith. jp&A man southward bound, with bis family and a large amount of baggage, was detained Wednesday night by the Surveyor, and his baggage examined.

A TAJSLD. We, the und6i:s iSl soldiers, beg leave

to say, that the editorial of yesterday morning's issue, stating that the sick soldiers belonging the 31st Indiana Regiment, now on il' 's wbarf-boat, are poorly provided for, and subject to all manner of inconveniences, is incorrect. We are comfortable and cared for. Mr. O'Riley kindly tendered ns his boat and many mattrasses, affording ns comfortable and good quarters. The kind ladies have given ns every attention; anticipating our wants they have bountifully furnished us with every luxury, treating ns with the kindness of mothers and sisters, making us forget almost that we were away from onr homes and amongst strangers; while Dr. Jones, physician appointed by Col. Croft, has given us all the attention we needed, and under whose skillful treatment we are fast recovering our health and strength. Our fellow-soldiers who have nursed us under the supervision of Steward Watson, have been kind and attentive by day and night. In view of the above facts, we would most respectfully decline your hospital, and much prefer Mr. O'Riley's hospital boat, the kind ladies, good eatables, the medical attendance of our esteemed physician, with our own fellow-soldiers, under Steward Watson, as nurses.

The Washington correspondent of the St. Louis Democrat, says a Major Generalship is to be conferred on the gallant Lander, now in commander of one of the brigades of the Army of the Potomac. Here is a t incident, as it tried the virtue of a poor little apple merchant, may well put to the blush the integrity of older and richer tradesmen tn all communities. A gentleman on the train westward from Albany, New York, bought oi a boy at one of the way stations east of Rochester, two apples, for which he was charged two cents. The cars passed on to Rochester, where the person who had bought the apples received a t legraphic dispatch telling him that in paying for the fruit be had given two tendollar gold pieces for two cents. The man immediately returned, received the money, and gave the honest apple-dealer a dollarpiece as a token of his gratitude and eeeem. Money asd Asms for Illinois.

A Movement Indicatbd, Shortlv after j Ruckner and his troops established' them selves at Bowling Green, bis commissaries made large contracts with people in the i surrounding country to furnish meat, grains aad provisions of all kinds for the support of the army. This indicated that the ex- ! pectation was to remain there for a considerable .time. On Thursday, Friday, and Saturday of lust week, notices were sent out ! annulling all the contracts made. This ! indicates that a speedy movement from I Bowling Green is contemplated. In what din ft ken is this movement to be? . Certainly not i , wards this city, else Ruekji troops w uld not have destroyed the ' crPly and magnificent Green river bridge. Having few or no wagons, they are not prepared to move except by railroad, and I we should not be at all surprised to hear of an inglorious retreat. Matters certainly look a little threatening down in McCook's and Rousseau's neigbboibood, and the rebels may as well turn their backs upon us first as last. lhey will have to make new contracts somewhere for victuals, and we hope they will get no beet bnt what died of the black tongue, uo mutton but what died of the rot, and no pork that didn't die of the hog cholera or the measles, and no wheat ' bnt what is as smntty as a secession paper. 1 <Louisville Journal>. ———<>—— HOME INTERESTS. ——— The neat and fleet little packet Hetty Gilmore, will be at the wharf this evening at 5 o'clock, for Cairo and all way points.
