The following particulars of the laie engagement | by Col.

Continuing their advance early Situiday morning, they were met at Mecaan icsQurg t two pieces of artillery and a portion' of Col. McEonaid’s command, consisting of 150 cavalry ali t -id, commanded by Major Funsten. Finding the enemy in overwhelming force, Maj. F. fell bac-K to the gap, two miles from Romney, and maintained his position from 10 A-M. until i P. M., when finding that a large force of the enemy Lad crossed the mountain and would cut them off, he rettsated across the river to the biufi'j commanding the river and roads. Seventy meu were placed m the nfie pita upon the bluiT j c- mmanding the bridge and lord—the balance (30) were held as a reserve. Tue huwitzer was i p:aced upon the same bluff, to the right of the i r.fis pita —.'iajur Fucsien commanding me howit zer and r.fie pits, fine rifle Cannon was placed upon Cemetery Hill, tbe reserve forces fn:’s tear, commanded by Col.

M when ire. enemy succeeded iu turning our flank by the Moorefieid road, and advanced upon the rifle pita in three columns, our men retreating in goau order to tbe reserve, wneu au immediate re treat ot our entire force was ordered. Overtaking our naggage tram this end of town, our forces Were thrown into confusion. The enemy advanc ing overwhelming numbers and close proximity, ait attempts to tally them proved futile, so that the entire train, consisttug ot ten wagons, with three pieces cl artillery, clothing and ammunition, also the Quartermaster’s papers and effects, had to be abandoned. V- e lost none iu killed or missing in this affray. Major Pan-den, whilst making a desperate effort to rally nis men. was thrown from his horse and considerably bruised. His energy and bravery is spo »en of in high terms of praise. He is now here, and v;iii in a few days be in the saddle again. The great tauit iu tins unfortunate affair appears to be in not sooner having ordered a re-, treat; 800 men against 3,0 W could not have been expected to hold good tbeir own, however brave they may have been, or bow cowardly tbeir ene mi-’s. Where the fault lies, however, not kuow ing V?e will not undertake to suy. Dr. Burns, the Surgeon of tbe Regiment, saved the ambulance, tbe only thing saved. The Doctor’s gallantry in attempting to rally tbe men aud protect tbe bag gnge, deserves all praise, as also Lieut. Lionber gtr, of Page, who bad command of the rifle gun. Col. McDonald himself acted with the utmost coolness and bravery. He was tbe last to leave tbe gun, and tba last to leave tbe town. Tno militia under Col. Monroe, 200 strong, acted most nobly. They met the regiment 1,000 strong of tbe enemy, advancing outbe Springfield road, at tbe Chain or Wire Bridge, killing about 40 of them, and completely louting the rest. The ene my, 4,000 strong, hold possession of Romney, whilst 1,000 are encamped at Springfield. It is to bo supposed that a force will be immediately sent to disiodpa them.

More Yankee Van dalism. —We are told by a re liable gentleman who bas since been at the place, that after the Yankees had surprised Capt. Wjl cax and his compauy at Saratoga, they went to Eddyville, where they perpetrated all manner of outrages on the cittiens. Most of he Toops were Dutchmen, and they first stole two barrets of whiskey,' and after getting drunk they went through tne town, injuring houses, breaking win dows,'damaging property, searching houses, and arresting inoffensive citizens, some twenty of whiVi they took with them to Smitbland. They also stole from Mr. Mitchuson, (a farmer of that neighborhood,) eight negroes, one wagon, BDd six mules. From other citizens they stole four negroes and other valuable property.

Three cheers for the “ effective bloek sde!”—Sat. fiep., ith. The Lincoln Armudn. This is tbe most extensive naval armamen since its prototype the “Invincible Spanish Arma da.” Let as hope that it will meet with the fate of that great instrument of tyranny. The National Intelligencer gives a list of the ves sels comprizing it, from which it appears that tbe expedition consist?of t_ree steam frigates, car rying in all 169 guns, six sailing men of war, 159 guns—twenty-six gun boats each carrying an eleven inch Dalgreen forward, one rifled gun and from two to four 24 pounders—l 2 ferry beats car rying 6 guns each and thirty steam and six sail ing vessels, also armed. Their vessels carrv be sides tbeir crews, about 30,000 of the best troops es McClellan's army which have been withdrawn from Washington and their places supplied with raw troops. They are under command of Briga dier General Sherman, originator of tbe famous Bherman battery which lost its prestige and coaoged owners at the battle of Manassas. We extract a few other particulars from the Intelligencer' $ account : men, hoesks, matirial, 4c. Tbe infantry equipments pat on board are suffi cient for at least ten thousand men. They include overything necessary to prepare the soldier. Os artillery ammuumou there are really im mense quantities. Several of the largest trans ports are nearly laden with these materials, aud thousands of shells w ere sent est from this port, as well as shot, canister, and every variety of deadly missiles. Os horses the expedition has nearly fifteen hun dred. They are mostly on board the Great Re public, Vanderbilt, Ocean Queen, BMtic and Erics son. One ship takes, as supplies lor the animals, eight thousand bags of oats, and besides this other vesstls carry further supplies of oats and corn, while many tons of hay are divided among tbe transports. Two thousand bushels of Cumberland coal have been taken along. Tuis coal is of the finely broken kind used bv smiths in their forges, be cause it gives a quick ana very inteuss heat. Besides the two wheeled dumping carts already mentioned, there are also a great number of haudearts aud barrows, especially of the latter, Os course every tool needed in constructing earth works is found in this irnmeuxecwiNtum gatherum. Three or four transports are partially la-leu with brick, mostly fire-brick. These are proba bly to be used in conjunction with tbe fine Cum berland coal fer heatthg shot. Gamp stoves aro cheaper, handier, and more quickly set up for cooking purposes, and the bride sre most proba bly to be u=ed iu constructing furnaces to bout red hot shot, with which the great Columbiads will do good execution. We are indebted to Mr. G. W. Blunt for tbe following accurate table of distances, in nautical miles from Hampton Roads to different points, from someone of which interesting intelligence may be expected in the course of a lew days : From Hampton Roads to Hatteras. 139 miles. From Hatteras to Beaufort, N. C , 86 miles. From Hatteras to Charleston, 260 miles, From Hatteras to Port Royal, SuO miles. From Hatteras to Savannah, 320 miles. F'rorn Hatteras to Brunswick, 370 miles. Tbe fleet, when under steam, with transports in tow, will make seven knots per hour, if the wind is not adverse. Under sail, with fair wind and good weather, tbe progress would be more rapid. Tbe October gales are now over, and con tinuous fair weather may be reasonably exaeoted, so that neither collision nor separation of the fleet need be apprehended. BOATS FOR LANDING. Several months ago tbe government began to provide itself with surf boats. We may say that tbe expedition carries with it not less’than five hundred of these needed helps for landing troops —sufficient to effect a simultaneous lauding of a great number of men. Besides these surf boats tbe government purchases several ferry boats. These boats were strengthened by iron bulworks, and will aiso doubtless be used for landing troops, for which service they are well fitted, each boat being capable of transporting at least nine hun dred men at a trip; and tbeir peculiar build mak ing it much easier to land troops fromthem than from steamboats ol the usual form. SURF BOATMEN. It is known that seamen, though able boatmen, are not always acquainted with the managemenl of surf boats, or with the landing of men through a heavy surf. To prevent accidents, the Navy- Department, soma months ago, sent trusty ageDts to tbe shores of New Jersey hud Long Island and secured the services of a sujpcient number of tbe hardy wreckers of those coasts ,men who played in the surf when they were children, aud who have worked in it ever since, These brave and skillful men will guide the boats in which our troops land at tbe point of attack. In addition, tbe Navy De partment recruited further umoog tbe 3Xilled and patriotic seamen of Cape God and Cnpe Ann, numbers of whom eageriy volunteered for work for which, by long experience, they are particular ly fitted. They will not ODly assist in woikiug tbe boats by which the army will be lauded, but will remain as part of the land forces afterwards. SUPPLIES. The material outfit of the expedition includes a vast variety of objects, which, when enumerated, prove what knowledge and careful forethought Is needed in those who superintended the opera tions. It may be said that it contains almost everything which a community would gather and take aloDg if it were about to found a colony in some deserted island of the ocean. First and most necessary comes food. Besides the rations provided for tho troops while they shall remain on board, the transports bear at least throe and half month’s supplies of food of every kind for the great army which is to be landed.' One ship car t ies out a cargo of water ; and tbe Department has already chartered and laden otbsr vessels to sand down further supplies of live stock and other needed provisions. ENTRENCHINS AND OTHER TCOLS, The Oeeau Queen and other steamers taka out besides troops, such articles as shovels, picks’ hoes, two-wheel carts, brick, cement, grindstones’ lumber, prepared (rair.es of bouses and barracks, ready to be set up, Cross-cut saws, immeuso quantities of sand bags, beams, Ac., 40. AMMUNITION. An immense numbar ot shot nml shell is on hoard ; as aiso many huge columbiads, mostly tbe vast tan inoh guns which do such fearful exe cution. The Atlantic and Baltio oarry tbe most of these, but more are understood to hs placed on other vessels as well. There ara also quntities of gun carriages and light cuds for field opera tions Os these many are Parrot guns, and all completely fitted, ready for the artillerists’ hands when they are landed —caissons, forges, and large quantities of grape, canister, shot and shell be long with each* battery, sufficient, one would think, for a campaign in the interior. WASONS. A great number of army transportation wagons ara provided, over aud above those which belong to each regiuieut, aud wbteb the troops took uway with them. Extra camp equipage of every des cription is also provided, aud a great number of extra arms and infantry equipments. To drive the extra transport wagons the Gov ernment enlisted in this city, nearly two hundred professional stage drivers. These Jehus will be most servicabie on the Southern roads, where, as Mr. Oimsteah relates in his journey through tbe South, Northern atage drivers are tound tbe only competent men to take charge of stages in the various interior lines. PILOTS. We may add here that all the best pilots be longing to this city have goue down with the ex pedition. They were chosen because they aie familiar with every point on the Southern coast from the Chesapeake to tbs Texas sbora. Besides these pilots a number of skillful and trusty coast ing Captains were engaged from Cape Cod. These men know every inch of tbe coast, have sailed into every harbor and inlet with tbeir craft, and will be able to carry tbe ships intoaoy port, great or small, on the Atlautio or in the GuU', where the expedition may be ordered to land. ARTIFICERS. A number of carpenters, masons and ethers artificers form a part of the material of the ex pedition, so that tn setting up barracks and for other work, skilled labor will be always at band. Death or Thomas \V ildet, Founder of the In dependent Okdkr op Odd Fellow3. —The Balti more Sun of tbe 21st of October, announces the death of Thomas Wildey, founder cf the Indepen dent Order of Odd Fellows in America. We make the following extract. Tbos. Wildey, well known throughout this con tinent as the founder of the Independent Order of Odd Fellows, died at his residence, Northwest . corner oi Gay and Front streets, on Saturday morning, in the 82d year of his age. Mr. Wildey was born in I, cndoD, England, in January, 1780 and in his youth was apprenticed to learn the trade of coach-spring smith. He married in early life but was childless, and in tbe fall of 1817 emi grated to the United States and selected Balti more as bis home. Here for several years he wrought at his trade. Before leaving his native land he attached him self to an order in that country known as Odd Fellows, and to continue in that association, in February, 1519, he advertised in the newspapers of the day a request for all Odd Fellows, if any should be in the city, to meet for the purpose of organizing a lodge." John Duncan, John Welsh, John Chatham, ard Richard Runawortb, ell na tives of Great Britain, responded to the call, and on the 25:h day of April, 1819, they oxganized Washington Lodge, at the public bouse or a man named Upton, Second street, near Frederick. Captcre op the Steamer Salvor. —By private letters received here on Thursday morning from Tampa, we learn that Capt. James McKay, with his steamer Salvor, wer-. captured by the Federal Stone State, while endeavoring to reach a Florida port from Havana. Tbe Salvor had on board several negroes belonging to Capt. McKay and others, and 21,000 stand ot arms, 100 boxis revolvers, 5 rifle cannon and ammunition. This capture was most unfortunate, and was caused by the steamer getting aground on the i quick sands. It will be remembered that Capt, McKay’s boat was taken possession of by the ene my at Key West some time since and the Ceptain himself held as a prisoner; that the hot t was re cently despatched to Havana for supplies for the soldiers or ships at Key West and Capt. McKay j permitted to accompany her a* a passenger, end that, on arriving within the harbor at Havana, the Captain claimed the vessel as bis own proper tv and was protected in bis claim by Cuban au thorities. The cargo of the Salvor was altogether a private venture. Had it arrived safely, the gallant Cap tain would Lave netted a handsome amount for tbs risk \\it.-~TallakaM*i TlorkUan A Jour.,\li The Second Engogementat sdnu-y,-. - The Loudon Democratic Mirror gives s detailed account of the battle near Leesburg on the hist, and also the following account cf the engagement the nest dav : On Tuesday morning, the 22d, the enemy sent ! over a flag o£ truce, requesting permission to i burv their dead. This ot course induced General I Evans to suspend further operations, and our ! worn cut soldiers who bad been on the inarch du- I ring tire five days previous, contemplated a day of rest. But the enemy, taking advantage of this re&pite, commenced strengthening their position near Edwards’ Ferry, and were discovered to be planting a battery in the edge of a field south of the Ferry. Gen. Evans at ouce ordered Colonel Barksdale to attack the Yankees at this point, and ordered the 17th and ISfh to sustain ffim. Tho 18th was marched !o the point it had left on the previous evening, reaching there at 2 o’clock P. M., and formed into Hue with the apparent design of making the attack near Dailey’s flouse, but at about three o’clock the regiment silently retraced it* steps to the road leading to Kephart's trail, down which it marched to a poin. near the butte rv, where it was halted, and the companies of dapts. Ecklord and McElrcy thrown out as skir mishers. do weli and silently was tu a march condacted that the 1 a usees were taken completely by sur- ( prise, the skirmishers getting within thirty yards ot them before being Cred upouj the advanced companies returned' the firs and Were quickly joined by the regiment, who, upon reaching the fence, delivered a we! directed fire upon th» re treating Yankees. The regiment, with deafening shouts, leaped the fence, making for the enemy’s batteiy several hundred yards in advance, and firing several volleys until it reached a ravine aud ha.ted. During this running tire of the regiment, the enemy opeued upon it with shot and shell from the three guns oa this side the river, and from their batteries on the opposite side, killing, however, but two of our men, Lt. Fiuker and pri vate Simmons, of Capt. McEtroy’s company. The loss of the enemy was between'forty and tilty. The lateness of the hour, being then nearly night, prevented a eumulluous attack by the seventeenth and eighteenth, and Col. Barksdale was compelled to draw off his regiment.— otherwise the batteries would have been taken UDd our list of prisoneis largely increased. The enemy'was at least four thousand strong at Edward's Ferry on Tuesday, and were protect ed by heavy batteries on the'epposite side of the river, besides a large number of rifle pits on his side. On Weduesday morning Gen. Evans withdrew his force a lew miles South of town to await rein forcements, but e~e they arrived the enemy hud again recrosaed the river, und there was nothing for them to do. Loss op the Lincoln’ Transport Osceola.— Capt. Morrill, of the Y'aukee transport steam propeller Osceola, arrived here yesterday from Georgetown, S. C., in charge of Captains Pinck ney and Mazy eh and was taken to the Guard House, at which place we saw him ; when, in an swer toquestions, he made the following state ments: The Osceola sailed from New York oil Thursday, October 24, for Hampton Roads; with a cargo consisting of 50 head of beef cattle, 500 barrels potatoes and sundries. Arrived at For tress Monroe October 27, when eleven head ot cat tie were lauded, leaving 89 on the vessel. At New York we were ordered to take on board water and provisions lor only 15 days, which made it evident we were not to proceed south of the coast of Geor gia, as such a supply would not have answered tor a trip to the Gulf. Remained iu Hampton Roads uutil Tuesday, October 23, when the entire fleet sailed, consisting of from fifty to sixty sail vessels of all dares from the powerful steamships Vanderbilt, Baltic, Wabash, Minnesota and Roan oke, to the ordinary sized tug boat.. On Wednes day it blew heavy from the southwest, lasting twelve hours, when the wind changed to the north west, and continued stormy ; but the smaller ves sels were somewhat protected from Us force by keeping close under the shore. Early on Friday (Nov. Ist) the wind shifted to southeast, and increased to a most severe gale, in which the squadron got separated. While keep ing olosc in shore, early ou Saturday, say between 2 and -S p. m., the Osceola got ashore ou the Dry Breaker, off North Island, near Georgetown, and in two hours the steamer bilged, the cattle soon taking to the water, and many of them reaching shore. The vessel having beoomo a wreck, the officers and crew, twenty in number, took to then boats, iu which they reached North Island, and wera taken prisoners. Capt. Morrill describes the gale as very severe, and thinks that many of the fleet tnust bave be come disabled or lost, some of them being old and by no means capable of ’ going through suoq weather. He had no instructions directing him where to proceed, his only orders being to follow the large ships : and other Captains, whom he questioned in regard to their destination, had on ly been directed in the same way. The Osceola was owned in New York, and has been engaged in trading from the Coast of Cu :a to Honduras Her tonnage was 177. Capt. M. informs us that some of the large steam transports which left New York, took on bo&rd troops at that place, but he was not informed as to their number, and had no correct idea. The wreck of the Osceola was boarded ou Monday by the boats of a blockading steamer. —Charleeton Mercury, Oth. First Ncvra from “tlie Pieet”»»l«£i] , go 1 Slrautthlp WrecKeii, C ICC. We had scarcely finished our article upon the ( Yankee fleet, written on Monday, when a das- j patch was received at the Aiijuiant General’s office, i communicating the fact that the Yankee steal* 1 ship “Union” had been wrecked near Fort Ma- > cou, and all on board of her lak- s n prisoners, j These prisoners, seveuty-oue in number, arrived | here by the Eastern train of Monday evening, j and were marched to the Fair Grounds to enjoy \ the society of some of their brethren, who have ; for soma months past been pat taking of the bos- j pitality of North Carolina. The “Union” strand- { ed on Boguc Island, about twelve miles from Fort j Macon, during the gale of Friday night, ur.ci the Yankees, with great difficulty, succeeded in sav ing themselVes from a watery grave. When the ship struck, and was evidently going to places, a boat, with a line, v«i sent ou shore and the line mndet lUSt. This was a ticklish operation, and the boat was in an aeo of being swamped several times. After the lih9 was made last, the boat was by means of it pulled backwards and forwards to the ship un til all the persons ou board were safely lauded.— This was a sort of triumphant entrance upon Sauthern soil which the Yaukees did not bargain for. After recovering their mind, the Yankees marched to Fort Macon and surrendered to the officer in eemmand. The prisoners state that the ship was anew one and on her first- voyage. If be was intended for a packet to ply between New York aud New Orleans. Her machinery worked beautifully until the gale commenced on Tuesday, oa the night of which day the “Union” was sepa rated fre-m the rest of the fleet. There were six ty four horses on board. AH but- twenty, which ai@ now in our possession, were lost. The gale is represented by the prisoners to have been of the most terrific nature. The prisoners bad noth ing to eat from Wednesday morning until they reached Fort Macon on Saturday. Three men who had reached the shore were, from sheer ex haustion, left on the beach, and no doubt have since died. The ship had (570 powerful engines in her, which will be saved, as they are now visible in the water. The prisoners know nothing of Ihe fate of the rest of the fleet, but express the opin ion that many of the vessels have goue to “Davy Jones’ Locker,” as the oldest seafaring man amongst them states that he never in ail his life' encountered so terrible a storm. The hand of the Almighty is evidently raised against the Northern vandals. On land and ecu, disaster after disaster overtakes and overwhelms them. We should not be at ali surprised if more than half the vaunted armada were never heard of un til th- advent of the day on which all secrets will be disclosed, as the prisoners state that the? saw a large number of horses and cows, which did not belong to their ship, floating about in the sea. These animals of course belonged to other vessels of the fleet, and their fate indioates that of theu owners.—Ueimgk diegutcr. Won't Stand the Chabge!—Dr. Parker, of Chattanooga, Teen., who was in the Leesburg fight, writes to that place an interesting descrip tion of it, from which wc extract the following : Some of our men are of the impression that we we will have another engagement in a few davs. I cannot think that tjiey wilt again attack us, 'or give us a chance to make a charge on them; it is impossible for them to stand a charge, and when ever such command in given they take to their heel3. Not one of our men that I have seen \va3 shot in the back; more than one bait' of the ene my’s men were thus shot. The enemy say that we will never encounter a force that will fight more desperately, as they were hemmed in by the river and could not retreat—that they would have run sooner, but had no place to run to. I forgot to say that we took all their artillery and most of their guns, which consisted of Enfield and Bel gium aisles, muskets, &o. The Truth of Bistort.— The Yankees say that Col, Baker was killed “while gallantly pressing forward at the head of his column.” Our army correspondent, who is very exact in matters of fact, says he was killed “while up a tree.” This modern Zuccheus, it seems, was not quiie so for tunate in bis mode of ceining down as his illnstri. ou* predecessor of holy writ Savannah Jitpubli can.‘ From this Passes.— The storm of Thursday night drove all of Lincoln’s fleet, except to vessels, out into the Gulf. It is probable they will_ remain thera until the present blow is over. With the two remaining vessels is a dismasted schooner. It is not known whether this is a prize they have captured, or one of their own craft.— Li. 0. LtL-i, 2d. Cotton.—lt will be seen from our commercial report elsewhere, that the receipts cl cotton for the past week were 247 bales, anu the shipments, (ail to interior ports) lifl bales.

Too Norfolk Day Book has received a copy of the New Y-. rk Times, of Saturday Nov. 2d, from Which the following is taken : HKTIRKHE.\T OF GENERAL SCOTT —HIS LETTER pF > IGKATIOy TO THE SECRETARY OF WAR, ETC. Washington, Nov. I.—The following letu i worn Gen. ticott was received by the president on Thursday afternoon : He.umjcaiwkr.s of Tilt: Ai my, ( Washington, Oct. 31, 1861. i Hon. S. Oameros, Secretary of War : Sin : For more than three years 1 have been unable-, from a hurt, to mount' it horse, or to walk more than a tew paces at a time, and that with much pain. Other end now infirmities—dropsy and vertigo—admonish me that' the repose of mind and" body, with the appliances of surgery and medicine, are necessary to add a little more to a life already protracted much beyond tho usu al span of men. It is under such circumstances, made doubly painful by the unnatural and unjust rebellion now raging in the Southern States of our so lately prosperous and happy Union, thavl am compelled to request that my name be placed on Hie list of army officers retired iroqi active service. As this request is lounded ou ::u abso lute right, granted by a recant act of Ccngr..- I am entirely at liberty to say it is with regret thus 1 withdraw myself in these momentous rimes from tha.orders of a President who lias treated me with much distinguished kindness aud courte sy ; whom I know, upon much personal inter course, to be patriotic, without sectional paniali tics or prejudices ;to be highly conscientious iu the performance of every duty, and of unrivaled activity and perseverance. And to you, Air. Secretary, whom I now offi cially address for the last time, I beg to acknow ledge my many obligations for the uniform high consideration I have received at t hands, md have the honor to remain, sir, wall high respect, Your obedient servant, VV infield Booty. A special Cabinet Council was cony, m-d on Fi i day morning, at 9 o’clock, to take the subject into consideration. It was decided that Gen. Scott’s request, under the circumstances ot his udv.meed age aud infirmities, could not be decluud. Gen. McClellan was therefor.-, with the uuunhnous agreement of tho Cabinet, notified that the com mand of the army would be devolved upon him. At lour o'clock iu the afternoon, the Cabinet again wailedupont.hu Presiden , and at.eude.. him to the residence ot General Scott. Being seated, the President read to the General the fol lowing order : On the Ist day of November, A. D., 1861, upon his own application to the President of the Unn ■: States, Brevet Lieut, Gt-u. Scott is ordered to be placed, and hereby is placed upon the li t of re tired officers of the army of the United Su.t-.-s, without reduction tu bis current pay, suhsisUn.:r or a.iowime \ Tiie Amerioau people will hear with sadness aud deep emotion that Gen. Scott has retired from the active control of the array, while the Presi dent uid the unanimous cabinet express their own and tho nation's sympathy in his personal affliction, and their profound sense of the impor tant public services rendered by him to i.is coun try, uuriug bis long aud brilliant career, among wbiau wilt ever bo graiviully distinguished his faithful devotion to the Constitution, the Union, and the flag when assailed by parricidal rebellion. (Signed,) Abraham Lincoln. Gen. Scott thereupon rose and addressed the President and Cabinet, who had also risen, as follows : “ President : This honor overwhelms me. It overpays all services I have 'attempted to render to my country. If I had aiSy claims bcfoi , they are ull obliterated by this expression of approval by the President, with the unanimous support of his Cabinet. I know tho President and tin f abi- Detwcll. I knew that the country has placeu its interests in this trying crisis iu sale-keeping. Their counsels are wise ; their labors me untiring as they are loyal, and their coarse is the right one. Phlsieent : You must e.\eu-.i me. lam unable to stand longer to give-utterance to tne feelings of gratitude which oppress me. In my retirement I snail offer up niy prayers to God iox; tins Ad ministration, and for my co up try. I shall pray., for It with confidence of ns bueoett over all it".: enemies, and that speedily.” The President then took leave ol Gen. Scott giving him hit hand, and mtying he hoped soon to write him a private letter, cxpresfi'”i of his gratitude and atfectiou. The President tidued : “General : You will naturally fael solicitude about the gentlemen of your stati, who have ren dered ycu and their country such faitblul service, i have taken that subject into consideration. I understand that, they go with you to New York. I shall desire them at their eariiest convenience, after their return, to make known their wishes to tne. I desire you now, however, to bs saitsfl. and that, except the unavoidable privation of your counsel and society, which they have so long i— joyed, the provision which will be made for them will be such as to render their situation as agree able hereafter as it has been heretofore.” - Each member, of the Administration then pa .> his hand to the veteran, and retired iu profou l and silence, Tho Secretary of the Treasury and tho. Secret t ly of War accompany Gen. rai Scott to New Yo I: to morrow by tho early train. 5 The following is the response of the Secret:-, y of AY ar to the Hotter of General Scott : War Department, j Washington, Nov. 1,1861. f General: It was my duty to lay before tile Pro j dent your letter of yesterday, asking to be r - lievt-d, under the recent Act of Congress. Iu sq. rating from you i cannot Terrain from express!! g my deep regret that your health, shattered by loDg servic.- and repe-ated wound* received in your country’s defence, should render it, necessa ry for you .to retire from your high position at, this momentnous period of our history. Ahhouga you are not to remain in active.serv.ee, I yethoj e that while I continue m charge of the Department over which 1 now preside, i shall at times Oe per mitted to avail myself of the benefit;, of'y our wh a counsels and sage experience. It has been my good fortune to enjoy apet s n:.l acquaintance with you for more tbau thirty year.-, and the pleasant relations of that long time ha' . been greatly strengthened by your cordial and eu tiro co-operation in uii the great questions whicii have occupied the Department, and convulsed the country for the last six months. In parting from you I can Only express tin. nope that a mer ciful Providence, tuat has protected you am u to many trials, will improve your healtn, and con tinue your life long alter toe people ot the coun try shall have been restored to their former hae piness and prosperity. I am, General, very sincerely, your friend and servant, (Signed) Simon Cameron, Secretary of War. THE FORT LAFATLTTB PRISON Kit*. Boston, Nov.
