From the Army in Virginia. |' The Richmond Dispatch says that the latest 1 1 advices from our army in Northern Virginia, ' ? and the reported movements of the enemy un- I dcr McClelluii, arc of an important character, I "\nd such as to create the belief that a great ( Cattle is impending, if it has not already occurrcd. All, reports concur in the statement that the enemy, in heavy force, have crossed the Potomac at Harper's Ferry and Shepherdatown, and ' that our own forces, under Gen Lee have (a ken up a strong position, in which to await the approach of the enemy. Northern accounts say that our forces are ooucentrating at Winchester, which place is being fortified. The Conscription. We publish on our first page the Act of Congress eftending the provisions of the Conscript law to persons between the nges of 36 and 45 ycats. vi i -? ' jjoiij ^vrsuun are tICBiroUS OI knowing Wlltt effect this Art will have upon the organization 1 in this State, known as the First thorps of Reserves. The Act evidently forbid* the admis sion of new organization*, and provided that < Conscript* shall be distributed among the Keg- I itnents already in the service. We have, howi I ever, seen some notice of a hill pending iu | Congress, which authorizes the President to ac- | cepl organizations abend) formed, though com- , posed in pait of persons liable to Conscription. , This bill, should it become a law, may save the | First Corps of Reserves. If preserved, it is believed that the Corps will be permitted to do ^ service in this State, which will be far better for those interested than to be ordered to \ ir, ginia and elsewhere, to till up companies aheady in service.

Heading, nnd more especially inn sitting posture, prevents the full grow th of the lungs nnd heart and so far a vigorous development of ttie animal frame. The I'ri pntetic mode of inculcating knowledge is the best. The scholars were tought by this (node in the open nir nnd without being mntined to any particular posture of the i?ody.

It was hoped thnt after the passage of the Conscript Act by Con jreHS, which virtually abolishes this 1 ?t Jorps of Reserves, Unit llie Governor and L'ouutil would countermand that most un eusor.able order to review this Corps. But Lhe last Columbia papers announce that Governor Pickens had left there to review the difTerent Regiments constituting the 1st ['orps of Kcaervea So that the (iovernor ind Council are proceeding just as thougl> in (Jonfederatejiaw hud been passed, which n effect disorganizes the whole corps. If 10 Confederate law had been passed, and I were fixed beyond a contingency that this 1st Corps were to be retained expressly for Slnle defence, even then, this order for but ino day would be absurd, but, now that -ongreas bas passed a law conscripting all up to 45, to persist in Ibis order amounts to the most stupendous folly. I have been Luughl in early life Hint true patriotism con dated in oppoa ng tyrants and oppression, vnd i see nothing In mature ago to change Lhe theory of the leaching. What possible ?ood can result from this mock show of heroism ! if ambitious men and officers fould be gratified without so great a sncrilice of time, which to the poor soldier is of tuch vital importance at this busy gethering canon, 1 would like very much to gratify them If uicn arc ao determined on going through the forms of battle why doul tliey insist on being sent where they can get a glimps of the reality ? If the emergency is upon us that every man up to 45 is required to take the field, I think tliey will go without a muruier. lint to drag men from their business, a distance of from 40 to 70 uiiles. Many of them, if they obey the order, will be nbaeot for live days. .M u .t he be compel led to eook up hia rations for live days and put his knap sack on his baek and march on foot this distance ? For what is he ordered? to meet a hostile column of Yankees, who have landed and marching inland, and must he met nt Camden on the JI si insl ? Or is there n servile insurrection discovered slid which threatens to uevustale the country ? No, the order contemplates no such emergency as either of these What then, pray, are men ordered t?? take upon themselves these onerous duties for ! The ilitlcrent Regiments of the 1st Corps are to be formed in line of battle, and the stereotyped words "Uattalion prepare for "He iteic er," head of column to the left, puss in Review er," die , dtc , and possibly at the close of these services %the different Regiments will be called on to stand in column closed in mass, and listen to a sterreotyped military speech. Will men submit to '.his sort of solemn mockery, when there is a stern reality in the*country ? If we have an efficient Government at Richmond, which I believe none doubts except this Council, let ns give that Government our hearty support. How absurd the idea of keeping up ao mnny seperatc independent governments in the same Confederacy. If the Davis government is equal to the emergencies, why set up another one in opposition to it, and which muat necessarily run into collision with it? Governor 1'ickens and the Kxuc utive Council, I think will admit us reasonable men, that they have just as much legal right to order out ten Regiments attached to lieauregard's comniurid, or to General Bragg'*, or Kirby Smith'*, and Review theoi, oh they hove to order out and review these Keaervea, who are now conscripted and aubject to the order of the {'resident, and will they still persist in th* order against light and reason ! If they iind the people in open rebellion against their usurpation*, w ho will poalerity blame for ill If thia Council wiah to do something which will immortalize them before they are/unc/u* olfictu, let them countermand this order for review and turn their attention vigorously to procuring arnn and ammunition to repell an insurrection, and distribute them among the reserve* proper, placing them in tho hands of the Militia Colonels, taking their receipts foi them, to b? used only in case of invasion 01 inaurraal! 11 ?

But what ia (he fact, here we to-day well nigh at the cloee of tha eeeooc year of the war, with the little army o Bute, which ia the pelatuf pruk of the Gov ernor and Council, ordered out for review without arraa and ammunition. Whoa thi MttJe army ia reviewed, I renture the aeaer lion that not moro tlinn one third of tl^e men have guns that will shoot without a match,and ammunition enough to load these , one round cannot bo found in the army.? Let our Kxecutive take notico of his own folly and return from these reviews a wiser I man. I,et him nnd his Council try to take care of the internal defences of the State, such as a proper preparation for putting down a servile insurrection within the State, leaving the more important operations of I the army to the Davis Government. If that 1 Government is an e(1\pient one and can pro j tect North Carolina and Virginia nnd ail I the other Confederate Stub s, will it not | protect South Carolina also * If Georgia | and North Catolinu are willing to tiust to the Davis Govern men t for defence mid pro tec lion need South Carolina he in fear ? Lot uh resolve to have one efficient Government, und make it cHicient t>v giving it our hearty support, although, for the time being, nnd for the common good, we must submit to see Stnte lines obliterated, nnd our long cherished States right doctrines trampled upon, anything rather than fail, we cannot afford to fail, our very existence is involved in the issue. Then Itt us give lo that Government our vigorous support trusting Hint these privations are but for a time, nnd that we will soon reinstate ourselves in our positions as free, sovereign and independent States. .'USTITIA. Confederate Congress. Richmond, October 1 ? In the Senate, Mr. Seinmes, from the Judiciary Commit! tee, to whom whs referred the resolutions | relative to Lincoln s emancipation procln j illation, reported u bill to icprcsstbc atrocities of the enemy by retaliation. Other bills and resolutions on the same subject were presented, and sll made the order of the day to-morrow, at I o'clock. The re[ riaindcr of the dsy's session was occupied in tin- discussion of resolutions relative to martial law and provost marshals. The following resolution was finally adopted ? yeas 21, nays 00 : Mr Wigfall's resolution thst the military law of the Confederate States is. by the Constitution and enactments of Congress, limited to land and na' val and militia when in actual service, and | to such other persona as are within the lines of any army, corps, division, or brigade of the nrmy of the Confederate States ; and | that no officer of the Government of the Confederate States lins ttie constitutional or other legal authority to declare, re organize or enforce martial law over any portion of the territory or citizens of the Confederate States. in the House, Mr. Lyons, of Virginia, subniitted n preamble denouncing Lincoln's proclamation and a resolution prescribing the iin.de of retaliation against the enemy. Mi. Chilton, of Alabama, submitted similar resolutions. All referred to the Committee on Foreign AlLurs.

Civilized Warfare?The Yankees,du- i ring their late raid in the neighborhood of | Hiutfton, behaved ns usual, n anlonly destroying private property wherever they ! went. They entered the beautiful Kpisco- ' pal Ch urch Dear the HlutT, and totally dcs- I troyed the fine organ, smashed the window Hashes and behaved themselves generally like savages At .Mr Croweil's unpretending collage, they broke up his dairy, throw- I ing the milk, curds and Lutler over the | walls and tloors, of course, helping them j selves first. They destroyed his salt works completely, and did as much mischief as was possible in the few minutes they remained ashore. A party, it is said, entered one of the spacious residences in Hiuffion and umused themselves by breaking a fine piano in pieces, and doing other rascally acts. i From ouk a km r or tiie Potomac.?So I far as we were able to gntjier yesterday, I from the more reliable sources of informa, lion, there has been no material change in i the position of our army for the past week, i No active operations have taken place, and F (Km rasn? u liU'lt raur jumpu saMIups ?? mi?ol. r needed, is being enjoyed by lliein without ' molestation.
