DRKW- , KriTO .Associate Editor BjgyTbe 1st and 2d Congressional diatricta, in this State, have now nearly eight thousand men in the field and in camp, and recruiting still going on. Southern Indiana is doing her whole duty. Montgomery county in Northern Indiana, is doing well in providing officers. The Review, says : " Oar county has now in service one Brigadier General, one Colonel, two Lieutenant Colonels, two Surgeon?, one Chaplain, four Captains, seven Lieutenants and two Commissaries, making twenty commissioned officers. With all this array of officers there is not to exceed two hundred rank and file in the field. Montgomery county has a population of over twenty-one thousand inhabitants, and should have in service at least eight hundred men. Rangers, Wide Awakes, and you howling politicians and office-Mekera, where are you ?'' 'The destitution and suf aring of our troops in Western Virginia, excites the liveliest sympathy of the loyal people at home. The Madison Courier urges upon the Governor the importance of sending under clothing and socks to our soldiers at once. Sufficient socks for all our regiments can be purchased in two days from the stores in the cities and towns, and the large stock now being made by the women of the State can be used to supply the necessities of other suffering troops. The prompt action of the Executive, backed by the sympathies and co-operation of the people of the State, will soon relieve the suffering in the camps in Western Virginia, and prevent similar disasters in the camps of the Indiana volunteers at Washington, Qatteras Inlet, Kentucky and Missouri. It will require every energy and all the efforts of the Governor and people now to protect our brave volunteers and to preserve their Important Foreign New. The steamship Arabia brings interesting intelligence from Europe. Mr. Lindsay, M P., who has been the champion of the South in England, since the war began, in a speech at Sunderland, gave his opinion that the English Government ought to urge the raising of the American blockade, and that both England and France should now consider the expediency of recognising the Southern Confederacy. Another report nf hU speech says : Mr Lindsay, id. P., from Sunderland, in addressing his constituents, toncbed upon the American question. He said as it would be some time before cotton could be got elsewhere he considered it the duty of the Government, in the cause of humanity, to remove the blockade. Considering the bold stand made by the confederates, and the strength of the South, he thought it aim"1-', time the Governments of Enp-'"" ' and France thought of recog":iag toe Independence of so numerous a body of people, Cheers and some hisses. It was evident that the North was not sincerely anxious to abolish slavery which would never be removed by a servile war. The separation of the North and South was much more likely to accomplish the object. The latest intelligence from Spain, is, that the expedition against Mexico, would lejve shortly. The co-operation of England and France will begin the first few weeks of the healthy season of the gulf ports. The Southern Flbet. In additiun to the fleet which left New York last week, twenty steamers and ships sailed on the 15th Inst., loaded with troops and munitions of war. Two other naval expeditions are also on foot, one from Boston, and anotuor from Annapolis. The details are suppressed , but the rebels will hear from the expeditions in due time. 8fiyThe women of Lawrenceburg have petitioned the Governor of toe State, for permission to.use the arms sent to that point for the Indiana Legion. Tbey say the men are too cowardly to enlist, and ask that the ranks of the Legion be filled up with Hoosier girls, who will defend 'iicir brothers and sweethearts from the rebels. Lawrenceburg is safe ! ttgJn Missouri the Germans swear by Fremont and "fights mit Sigel." In St Louis there is a capital print in irculiuion, which represents a native born and a German volunteer with uplifted tuugsof lger striking hands to the motto "one Hag, one country, twei lager." tT At the recent election in Philadelphia a new system was inaugurated. The vote was hourly announced; upon the striking of the clock the return inspector called out from the poli the condition of the vote. The Washington (Ind.) Telegraph and Democrat have been merged into a new paper called the Conservator. Lewi? & Gardiner are the proprietors.
Marine Hospital for So. titers. Evanstille, October 18, 1861. Editor Jocrkal : I am again ahead of time. On Sabbath, 29th of September, Col. Hawkins applied to me for the privilege of sending some of the sick soldiers to theMarine Hospital at this place : I informed him that it wou!d be in violation of law, so i do, bat from the apparent necessity of the case, v ifV the concurrence of the Surgeon and Stewii. ', I would run the risk of at least one violation ot the letter of the law, and ask the Government to approve it, and make the arrangement permanent. I did, on the same day, admit nine sick men, and reported the fact to Mr. Chase on the next day j in answer he sent me the enclosed letter, which you will please publish for the information of the public, and especially for those persons connected with the military service. If sick soldiers are suffering at the presen. time on the wharf boat at this landing, it is the fault of their officers, who might have obtained their admission into the Marine Hospital, in the same manner that Col. Hawkins did his. Very respectfully, A. L. Robinson, Sutveyor.
Treasury Dki-artment, October 8tb, 1861. J Dear Sir : I have received your letter of the 30th ult., stating that at the urgent solicitation of Col. Hawkins, yon had admitted nine sick soldiers of the Kentucky troops into the marine hospital at your port, and asking '.eave to extend similar accommodations during the pressure of existing circumstances. The marine hospitals have been erected at the expense, partly, of the seamen of the United States, and they are entitled to accommodation therein before all others, in times of sickness or disability. Under existing circumstances, however, 1 desire to extend every facility in my power to secure the safety and comfort of the soldiers, and you are therefore hereby authorized to set apart for the use of such soldiers in the service of the United States, such portion of the marine hospital as may not be necessary for the accommodation of seamen. It is to be expressly understood, however, that no expense attendant or consequent on such temporary transfer is to be thrown on this department, and provisions must be previously made for keeping the premises in repair and for restoring them, when the military occupation has ceased, to their original coition. You will continue to exercise general supervision and report from time to time, as you may deem proper. I am very respectfully, Your obedient, S. P. Chase, Sec'y of the Treasury. A. L. Roeisson, Surveyor, Evansville, Ind. SkWJno. W. Dawson, the editor of the Fort Wayne. Times has been appointed Governor of Utah. Oenl. en Man and the Army of the . utaniaiWe esiiuci the following from an interresting letter written by Hon. Jno. W. Foruey to his paper, the Philadelphia Press. The letter is dated "Washington, Oct. 1 1th:" While the politicians are surrounding Gen. McClellan, and demanding that he shall advance upon Manassas, he maintains his equanimity and keeps his secrets. At last he is left the unembarrassed master of bis own movements. This had become necessary in consequence of his individual energy and activity. He leaves nothing to others, and, al.a p- - j hi ii i i I i , '?, - r ! examining maps, and directing details, is more in the saddle than any of his staff. Consulting with the President and the Cabinet daily, and listening to the advice of the Lieutenant Genera!, whose advanced years renders confinement to his chamber unavoidable, the duties of the field, and the whole scope of the campaign, demand that he shall be left to take his own course. He will not be hiirried, nor driven, nor dictated to. The responsibility devolving upon him is stupendous. The army subject to his command is one of the largest ever called together by any nation, and, although composed of splendid material, and completely armed and equipped, it is not as thoroughly disciplined as the troops that served under leaders in military and monarchical governments. To see that- these precious lives are not wasted by precipitate and hasty action is his constant care. The confidence reposed in him by the soldiers has become so great that where he lead.- they will follow. They feel that hia interest in them is unceasing, and they know that bis sleepless nights and untiring days are cqaally given to their comfort and safety, and to the honor and glory of the country. If I dared to expose to you the intricacies of his position, and the amazing regularity and order that he has infused into the army, yon would be struck no less by his caution than by bis foresight. The cavalry, when we reflect that it is mainly made up of men and horses heretofore unaccustomed to battle and the privatiom of the field, has never been surpassed. This tribute is paid alike by Prince de Joinville, who proves to be an experienced soldier, and by the ablest and oldest of our veteran officers. The commission to examine tbe qualifications of commanders of regiments and companies has worked a magical change in tbe service, while tbe attention bestowed upon the health of the troops, and upon all departments of the commissariat including that of the Quartermaster General is rapidly making the infantry as hardy and as reliable as regulars. Above all, General McClel lau's leuueuce is his highest quality. He is no babbler. What he decides upon he executes promptly and quietly, issuing his orders without parade, and generally surprising his staff by unexpected suggestions, tne result of his own deep, profound, and patient reflections. Tbe enemy, conscions of all these things even with the encouraging thought that they have driven McDowell back is in no baste for an engagement, and sees the coli umn of the American army slowly advanc- : ing, with something HRe a censciousness ! that it is a wave that never will ebb, but j will go direct on, sweeping every impedij meat before it. As one long line turns its j face towards Manassas, entrenchments are i thrown op, SO that, even it retreat were possible, pursuit would be vain. Gen. McClellan has been sufficiently flattered, and these words of mine are not words ot flattery. 1 speak ot him not to place an exaggerated estimate upon his qualities, but to give him tho advantage of facta before the public, so that he may stand justified even to those who clamor for immediate action. 8fcSNew York is tic place for nice, fat offices. They have a manager and four ussistants employed iu disbursing the funds for the relief of the needy families of volunteers. The manager is engaged at a salary of twenty-five hundred dollars per year, and each of the four assistants is paid at the rate of eighteen hnndred dollars per year. Tbey are employed five hours each day in attending to business.
From Cincinnati Pries Current.) Financial and Commercial Summary for the past Week. There has been no change in the money market since our last. The supply of currency is (rood and the demand from accept
able borrowers very light, and is met Fully by bankers at 1012 percent. The demand Treasury notes have become very generally diffused among the people, and none are being returned for redemption, and the general disposition is to avoid this. Owing to the falling off in the supply of drafts drawn against shipments of produce, tbe cause of which is tbe want of shipping facilities, exchange ims become scarce, and though rates, as regards tbe selling rate3, ;
are not quotably higher, the tendency at 1 but a fair Supply of slop-fatted.

Two year Treasury notes, owing to a recent order from the United States Treasury Department to receive them at par for tbe 7 3-10 stoek, are up to 99$, and few offering. There have been some changes in uncurrent money.

The weather has been cool and pleasant, though somewhat changeable, but on the whole unusually mild and favorable for agricultural purposes. The fall sown wheat looks very well so far as heard from, and we are informed that there has been a great breadth of land sown, as the weather has been particularly favorable, and tbe inducements, as regards a foreign demand, good. The want of transportation facilities greatly interferes with business in flour and provisions, and is being felt keenly by those who deal in those articles; and if this be the case when lake and canal navigation is open, what, we may ask, will be tbe ruasrnitude of the difficulty when it is closed ? The desire to get produce forward is strong and general, and there is no doubt that large stocks will accumulate in warehouses of the seaborrd cities before December, aa . , , ... . ' , owners have been and will continue to be indisposed to sell at the current rates, expectiug lo realize far higher prices aa the ses n advances. This will place a much larger quantity of flour and grain in the Eastern markets by the 1st of December, than would otherwise be the case, and leave less to go by railway during the winter months ; so that probably the case may not be quite as bad as is expected. There is no doubt that the Erie Canal will be kept open until it is actually closed with ice, and this may not be the case until in December, and it is not improbable that the Ba'timore & Ohio Railway will be open by that time ; so the railway men may not reap such a rich harvest es they expect. Aa it is, however, railway shares are rapidly advancing, upon this basis, producing excitement in the New York Stock Board of no ordinary na ture. We should regard the course adopted by the grain and flour dealers of the cu uy luc giaiu nuu uuui ucstcio ui West, in placing their stockti at the sea--; board during the fall, a very judicious one, and it seema that their obtaining much better pricea than those now current is simply a question of time. Our ailvices from Europe bv the Asia report a sudden and general cessation of French demand for breadstuff?, in the English markets, and a consequent decline in pricea; but thia is evidently temporary, and XtSK srrmm, m a 1a nn btakets, because it is well known that the crops in that country are alarmingly short. We see it stated in some of tbe New York papers, that high ocean freight! are expected, but we cannot see why this shoulu be so, as the vessels heretofore employed in the transportation ol cotton will be employed in the transportation of Hour and grain, which must greatly increase the available tonnage of tho Eastern ports; and not only this, but all the vessels engaged in the Southern coasting trade will be available The general busiucas of the cay is quite

The receipts for door have becu light, aud there being a good home and fair export demand, prices advanced fully 15c per brl ; Superfine selling at $4 15,4 25; extra 4 304 35 ; family $4 40, and fancy $4 50 4 60. The market, under a farther advance in rates of freight, closed heavy at these rates, buyers holding off for a decline. Wheut bas been in light supply, and good i demaud, as regards tbe higher grades, and prices advanced to 80(385 for prime to choice red, and 9093 for prime to choice white ; the latter a nominal rate, as there was none in tbe market. Corn advanced to 3031, closing steady. The supply of oats has been inadequate j to the demand, and prices advanced to 30c, closing with a continued upward tendency. ; There i3 quite a Urge demand for army purposes. Rye advanced to 3V33c, and is in fair ! demand. Barley remains dull, and prices nominal ; at 4045c. Tbe demand for Whisky has been active, and beiug in excess of the supply, prices ad- : vauced to 14jc, closing with a strong up- ' ward tendency. This demand ia front the ; manufacturers of alcohol chiefly, who are working to their full capacities, and making heavy shipments to New York. There is considerable foreign demand for tbia article. Green apples have been in large supply, j and prices declined 75c per brl. Nearly 7,000 Lrls were received during the week, ! and but few exported. The Provision Market, chiefly owing to . the high rates of freight to the East, and I the difficulty in shipping, has ruled very i quiet, and tbe business done has been small, but holders were firm at full prices, : not being disposed to make any conces- ; sions, aa a general thing. Mess pork may be quoted at' $12 75$13; bacon at 4, 5 and 0c, though for shoulders and clear sides jc higher baa been generally asked;' i bulk meat, 4c for shoulders, 5 jc for sides, which ia an advance; and lard 8c.
