The news of Thursday is not very thrilling, yet it Is of considerable interest. The whole country in impatient for nn ndvunco from the Potomac. A full month has elapsed since tli bloody buttle of Autictain. The feeling is general that this time is sufficient for rent, recuperation, and all necessary reorgnnizition. The rainy season is Tatt approaching, nnd north ern Virginia, will soon be nn extensive quagmire, impiisiiblo for heavy trains. This wut the en so lust winter, it will be ho this. This quiet on the Potomac, however, may bo only nppnrcnt, not real. We have blind hints of u heavy forco concentrating nnder Ilelnlzlcmnn, in the reur of the rebel army. This delay may bo necessary for him to get into position. If so, nil rhjbl. "When the bugle does sound on to Rich ntonl," there will be bloody work. The Union army c.innot fail this lime. The stake is too great, the interest involved too nwmcntntH. When tho serried le gions of freedom's warriors, gathered on the bank of the Potomac, fImII hear the bugle notes of onward," the world will breath with n huhed breath. The broken ' segments of the on'y free Government in the world will be tho pad monuments of their defeat tho speedy restoration of a once gloriom and still mi. -lily Union, tho fruits of victory. Gen. SehoflVId ha cleared .M is sourl of reb.-l hordes, and is following them up In Arkunas. Matters are last coming to a fitcns in the Western D-'partment. The rebel Morgan has succeeded in captur ing and destroying two supply trains in Kentucky. Nothing important Irom Drogg ml IJiii'll. No news yesterday. Ustox Paiity. We publish on tho out : .fide of this Ismiu the proceedings of the Convention held at Salem, on the lllh, for '.ilio, permanent organization of tho Union ".party in this Slate. Such nn organization .. It eminently proper. Without it, tho Union party Is but a jux'apo'illonor old pnitle. " i:acb striving to preserve Its political idont " ity. Under theso circumstances, it will ever wont unity of purpose, harmony of action and solidity of organization. Tim - porary organizations lack essential elu menlH of power. They arc nn admisHion that tho rrrlnciplPB upon which they are founded are tf too cvanecentnnd unsuHtan tial a nature to support a permanent organ ization. TMa Ih not true r tho principles underlying tlic Union party of, this State. They ato dotp enough, broad enough, and holld enough to support a permunent su perstructure. Tho fact that theso princi ples vray soon become universal, is no ob jection to permanent, organization. The ." object hnd in view by tho organization ir any paity. Istosecuro tho triumph of the ' iprinciplea upon which it is based. But it inaybo'hald that new Issues may arise ad " Mutt ft,' This U no objection to aperma,- 'nent.organlzatlon. New issues havo been ' presenting' themselves, for tho decision of the Aacrlcan people, ever slnco the Gov ernment went Into operation, and will con stantly be arising as long as tho Govern men t'lias an existence. This objection lies with 'ju mora 'force aghwt tjfnanijnt, orgasdou of tb Union party than It docs against tlie.perraaoeut organization of any other party. If It was allowed at all, it would.defeat alt attempts to organize any partyl ' Tile parties urging this objection have always au'swered It by tkelr actions. Wd.neoftta merge tho, partisan in the patrloto forget that we. aro Democrats or itepijlrilcans, aud only to remember that we mo IMon men.

The fall elections In the Slates of Ohto. Indiana and Pennsylvania, havcrcsuR.ln, tlpo success of tho Demo cratic, ,S&to. tickets. The, democrats gain Ave Congressmen In Pennsylvania, four In OhIo,nd one li Indiana. But it trust bo Tcmenmurca m' mini, ui m utiuwimi aro staunch and radical Union men. As a specimen, wo might instance Gen. Mc'Jnll. Who beat Canbbell, a Republican, in otic of tho districts in tin city of Philadelphia. IIo openly avowed himself in favor of " the unconditional surrender of Ihu rebels, or their nmJhllatlou.'-' llu was .wounded and taken prisoner in the battles on tho James River. ' But while tho above is true or m 1st of the democratic members elected, yet there are a few exceptions. The Infa mous VoorLi.'B has been elected from tits dittrict, In tho Stale of Iudlqnan. But the equally infamous Viltandlghain has been donate I by Sehencb, in Ohio. The Republicans have carried the State ol Iowa by n largo majority, and have gained three Congressmen in that State. These elections give the denial, emphati cally, to the boasting cqut so olteu heard from certain ncjntlvo patriots, that a vast majority of tho army are democrats. It tarns that there are democrat enough Itt at home, in'ttrong IlepMican Stales, to carry the eUctiom. In the present Congress, the Republican and Union strength is 132; Democratic strength, 42. Thomas H. Pkaunk. Tills gentleman, n all know, was a candidate before the lat Legixlaturo for election to United States S-natc. IIo was defeated. Ever since that time the Statesman has pursued him with n rancor and bitterness scarcely ever dis played in n heated political warfare, i'eurue has never replied, yet Bu-h make every number of the Statesman fairly unokc with his viilillcnlion and abuso of Pcarno. If Mr Penriic was really killed politically by his defeat in the Senatorial contest, Ui:n Mr. Dutih must bo awfully afraid of a ileaillion, for he has been shooting At him for near two months.
