lor President and Vice-President of the Confederate
States. The Carolinian mys, an impremion
prevails that the large amount of bu incus
which will be brought before the Legist

Day of Fatting and Prayer.
The President has issued a proclamation set*
ting apart Friday, the 16th of November, as a
day of fasting humiliation, and prayer through)
out the Coufcderate States. The Divino protection
tint* far vouchaafed to our people, is
considered by the President tut calling for a
general and devout exprcasion of thanksgiving,
while prayer for the future aucceaa of our anna,
and the restoration of peace and prosperity is
earncitly recommended.
The Lincoln Fleet.
The Norfolk Day Book, aaya that the Federal
Fleet, recently in Hampton Roads, consisted
of fully one hundred aail of vessels, including
men of war, steamers and transports.?
The Baltimore South, says that the force on
board this fleet is from thirty to forty thousand
men. It also says that its destination is prob,
ably not far South. The New York Utrald,
aaya the point of attack will be Charleston.
The Yankees seem to calculate with a good
deal of certainty upon the succeea of this ei<
pedition. They have failed to make good
their threats upon land, and their main hope
of effecting the subjugation of tha South, now
lies in this stupendous naval undertaking. We
hall, no doubt, in a short time sae what it all
amouuts to. Naval expeditions are notoriously
more uncertain than land. John W. Forney
lately wiote from Washington to the Phili
adclphia PrM, as follows :
"The naval expedition?part ,of which has
already sailed from New York, and the other
]>oitionof which will shortly follow?is one of
the best organised sad most extensive in tha
history of tha civilized world. It will not only
be frresistable in its attars .upon ths different
fortifications along ths whoia Southern
seaboard, but it will carry a land force which
may be thrown with terrific effect upoo every
poaitiou that may be conquered by .the Navy
iwilf.
It is impossible that an expedition so vast,
destined to accomplish results so aatoundmg,
should be hurried. It ia right that whan the
Goveiumeut atrikea at any portion of tha rebellious
Sutra, it ahould strike with crushing
?fleet. Jeff, bar in uoderatanda tha theory.?
lie kuowe that he haa next to fear the awaken
d power of the Federal Government in the
Fall and Winter months.
Important from Europe.
We learn from the Richmond JSxmmintr that
late New York pap era contain the following
dispatch fion. St. Johns, brought from Europe
by the steamer ji/rica, that left Lirerpool on
the 1 Stir inat:
It ia reported that the principal Chamber! of
t'ommeice in Franca bare memorialised the
Kmpcror to recognise the Southern Confederacy,
and raise the blockade of tho Southern
porta 1
It ia again reported that tha Empertr Napoleon
contemplates a recognition of the Southern
ConfederacyThe
I.ondon Dally Newa aaya that the reports
that the Kmpcror Nnpoleoo contemplates
a recognition of the Southern Confederacy are
from trustworthy sources, tha want of cotton
being severely felt. e
The London Shipping Gasette aaya that
France and England must act together, and argue*
that the recognition of tha Southern Confederacy
would carry an amount of weight and
moral influence which would aet ap tha Confederacy.
Tha above ia indeed important, if true. Tha
raining of the Blockade of tha Southern porta
would avert much of the inconveniences and
Buffering with which our peopla are threatened.
Let the superiority of the Yankee Navy over
ours he neutralised by European interference,
and the war will soon aud ; oo land we are
more than a ruatch for them. But we should
not be too sanguine that England and France
will Interfere to the extent of forcing
the blockade. To do so without plausible
pretext would be sueh a violation of the laws
of nations as they will not commit, unless driv<
en to it by the direst necessity. Whether the
fact that the blockade lias beeo frequently violated,
will afford them that pretext .would seem
doubtful from some late Engliah opinions, hold*
ing that to entitle a blockade to reaped, it naed
no be so effectual as that no ocekMonal viola*
lion of it could poaaibly occur. The whole
matter of their interference ie involved in the
question whether they can do without our cotton.
Their sympathy for us begins end ends
with cotton. If they can do without this sr<
tide, they will not seek pretexts to luterfors
with the blockade. Our wlaeet men have predicted
that England must hsvs our coUon, or
be thrown Into revolution ; but it is barely
possible that they may be mistaken. At all
events, it is fsr safer for us not to rely upon
England or King Cottou, but trust to our
own strength and resources and to the God of
lUttles to carry us safely through the storm
which is upon us.

Bnnortd Designs of ths Enemy.
Among the numsroea rumors that reach
us of the designs of the enemy are few
that are entitled to any consideration. There
were nevertheless, some reports in rircularion
yesterday of information received by
the Government, which assumed a shape of
reliability. It is stated that a committee of
Northern capitalists has visited Washington,
representing that the people are impa
tient of delays, and that unless an onward
movement is shortly made the "sinews of
war" must be withheld. It has, according
to current report, been decided to push the
campaign forward, and to this sod Brigadier
Sickles is to be furnished with ten
thousand men and stationed on the Maryland
chore opposite Evansport, to eo-operate
with the fleet, which is to open fire on
our batteries. Meanwhile, 35,000 men are
to be landed at Nominy Cliffs, in Westmoreland
county, Va, and while these for
cea are engaged in an attack upon our
works on that line, McClellan is to make
a grand forward movement from Washing
ton.
It is supposed by this plan they will draw
tha attention of Johnson and Beaurrgsrd
towards Evansport, when they count it an
easy matter to make a successful attack up
on the rear or our army by an advance of
McClellan's main force. The information
ia aaid lo have been brought by a confidential
agent, juat from Waahington, aud the
circumatancra load te the belief that it ia
entitled to caedit.

WAR NEWS.
From Richmond
Richmond, October 29.?General* John,
eton and Beauregard hare both sent com.
plimenlary letter* to Gen. N. G. Evan* in regard
to hie recent complete and bitliant vie.
to'jr.
Gen. W. II. T. Walker la understood to
have resigned, because, after having been
repeatedly overslaughed by the President
lie was finally displaced from the command
of the Louisiana brigade, and Gen. Rich,
ard Taylor (the President's brother in-law;,
| a new appointee, substituted in his stead.?
: In addition to this, Gencrnl Walker had ro|
ceived orders to report himself to General
Kirby Smith, who is his junior.
The VVur Department has information
from Washington up to Saturday, that
Sickles, with a division of 16,000 men and
60 cannon, had occupied that portion of
Maryland juat opposite our Kvansport batteries.
The enemy is alno about to place a
strong force opposite the Mathius Point
batteries. These latter batteries, it is
thought, will be engaged by the fleet, assisted
by Sickles' force so as to give McClellan
an opportunity to attack Johuston's
rear.
The latest Washington papers received
here, in alluding to the Into Yankee "reconnoissance
in force" at I/eesburg, say that
"the fall of Raker caused some confusion
in the right wing, which wan repulsed with
considerable loss." General Stone had reported
that the rignt wing had retired in
good order.
The New York 1\ibune says that the
Leesburg affair was the most severe fight
yet recorded during the war. It represents
the Confederate fire on the troops in the
river to have Been terrific, even more so
than at Bull Run. It admits a loss of l'JOO.
in killed, wounded and prisoners.
Passengers from the mountains re-aftirm
the withdrawal of the Confederates from
Rotnney, but deny that our forces met with
any loss. It seems that the enemy appeared
at Komney in large force, while the Con
federates, having only 600 men, retired in
an orderly manner to Winchester, on which
place it was apprehended that the enemy
would ndvance.
One hundred and fifty sick soldiers, man)
of tl.em quite ill, arrived here this evening

Richmond, November 1.?A gentleman
who h?n just arrived here from Alexandria
brings th? following reports :
It is generally believed in Wsnhingtor
that the Great Yankee Armada is intendec
for Savannah or Brunswick, Georgia.
The feud between the Administration anr
Fremont, ia growing warm. Fremoilt'i
friends are making active exertions in hii
behalf.
Gen. McClcllan is exceedingly wroth al
the attacks made upon him, on account ol
the rout of the Yankees at I.eesburg. lit
threatens, if they continue, to resign.
It was rumored at Manassas this morning,
that McClel fan's army had drawn back
its lines to Munson's Hill. All is quiet at
Mnnasaaa and everybody now concedes that
I there ia no prospect for a fight there.
The Whig, of this morning, prints the
correspondence between Brig. Gen. W. II.
T. Walker, of Georgia, and the Secretary
of War, relative to the resignation of the
furuier. In giving the reasons for hie resignation,
Gen. Walker says he has been over
laughed by the appointment of young officers,
whom he had ranked in the old service
; that the Government, not contented
with putting Ids own countrymen over hiin,
had brought from New York, Gen. Lovell
who was an office holder in New York
when the battle of Manassas was fought
and had made him a Major General, ovei
Southern men ; and, to cap the climax, hii
(Gen. Walker's) brigade had been taker
from him and one of hi* junior Colooeh
had been made Brigadier in his place, lit
concludes his letter by saying : 'One would
have supposed that an Executive, who had
himself been a soldier, would have scorned
lo have wounded ih* sensibilities of an oU
and tried soldier. Tiie aacred cause foi
which I drew iuy aword, I will fight for ir
mv native Sute ; but I will not condescend
any longer to aubmit to the inaulta and in<
dignitiea of the Executive."
The Secretary of War, Mr. Benjamin, ir
hie reply, say a that it ia due to hi* rlf*re
epact to remark on the impropriety of Brig
udier*Gmer*i Walker using the War I)?
partuient as the medium for cooveyirig dia
respectful and insulting comment* on lh?
action of tne President of the Confederacy
He argue* that the ('resident's sole oflern
consists in not selecting Gen. Walker to to
a Major General ; that there is no^ueatior
of promotion involved in the appointment
of general officers, the isw expressly vest,
ing the appointing power in the President
and thst it is no disparagement of any of
ficer or his services, that the President pre.

Advices have been received in Memphis

and that his army was in good figting con* <

large accessions to hi* army. Their combined
armies will outnumber any Force that
Fremont can bring. The opinion is that

the jurisdiction ot Virginia, the only place
in which they could be legally tried. The
argument was to have been resumed on the

The War in Kentucky.
Nashvill,October 28.-A gentleman who
left Louisville on the 2id, says that troops
from the North are rapidly pouring into t
Louisville. Gen. McCook's forces, between

than 30,000. Three regiments from Pennsylvania,
with eight pieces of artillery, on#
from Indiana and one from Minnesota, had I
arrived at 1-oiiisvilln on the 21st and 22d,
and were immediately sent to join McCook's '

Commercial, of the 22d, snys that at

will be in Kentucky before the close of the
