Latest from Beaufort,
A friend who left Bluffton at 10.30 P. M. on
Sunday, reports that place in possession of our
forces, including a large portion of Col. DeSaus
sure’s Regiment, acting under orders, which we
need not detail. The Planters and residents so
far as heard from were zealously preparing to
remove non-combattants and valuables, and to
destroy what could not be removed.
The latest reports from Beaufort town repre
sented it as generally deserted, and as in virtu
al occupation of some of the piratical ships,
while other ships were at rest lower down. It
was not believed that any attempts [at landing
had been made, beyond small foraging, scout
ing and thieving parties.
Our forces were concentrating rapidly, and
with spirit, at the stations assigned and were ea
gerly expecting orders.
Another friend who left Seabrook’s planta
tion at 2.30 P. M. on Monday, informs us that
within the range of his observations between
that point and thi3 city, there were no signs of
bloekaders, or pirates or thieves, or floating ma
rauders.
The brig Betsy Ames was brought through
last evening by a gallant and skillful navigator,
and is safely moored. Other vessels are closely
on the way for us.

CHEAT MEETING IN NEW YORK,*
The New York papers contain full reports of
a large and enthusiastic meeting held in that
city on Thursday evening, the 31st ult. We
give the following condensation of the remarks
made by one of the speakers:
Mozart Hall Ratification —Interesting Speeches
— Gen. McClellan declares that he dare not
Fight on the Potomac.
A large and enthusiastic meeting of the ‘Mo
zart Hall’ wing of the Democratic party of
New York was held on Thursday evening to
ratify the nominations of the party leaders.
Mr. Chatfield, in the course of his remarks:
observed:
This meeting to-night, this room filled to its
utmost capacity with the freemen of their
country, admonish me that as yet these people
have not forgotten that they have rights to guard
and interests to protect, and that they live un
der a Constitution, and are under obedience to
laws formed under that Constitution. Thank
God, gentlemen, we have yet a county to care
for. We have yet a Constitution that is the
supreme law of the land.
* * *- iff vft
I believe that yet, although the aspect of
things are dark enough, the principles of that
party will bring this countryout at its peril.
I am not prepared to say that they will re
store this country to its prosperous condition
before these troubles began ; because I am not
so blind as not to see that the termination of
our present difficulty may be that our country
may be left prostrate, loaded with debt, and
desolate with the death of our loved ones who
have gone to the wars to protect us.
I am not here to inquire into the causes of
this war. I have the satifaction of knowing
that the great party to which I belong has nev
er been Abolitionist in its sentiments.
I have the satisfaction of knowing that no
one of that great family has ever thought more
of the black man than the white man.
None of us, gentlemen, not one, is respon
sible for the utterance and predominance of
those sentiments which lie at the foundation
otthis great Secession movement.
1 know that during the campaign of last fall,
in this spot, and elsewhere all over the country,
ffYTON H.CCUatJITT, ) v
JAMES W. WABREN. ( Edltorl -
$5 PER ANNUM.
we admonished those who have precipitated this
country into its present perils, that if they car
ried into effect the principles that were uttered
at Chicago that civil war must necessarily fol
low. But the spirit of Abolitionism seemed to
prevail. They said to us “Oh they dare not
fight." And a gang of men paraded these
streets night after night, preceded by torches;
they were called “Wide-Awakes.” In answer
to these admonitions of the Democratic party
they said to us “what if they do fight.” “We
can whip the South before the breakfast bell,
and all creation after Gentlemen,
where are k these “Wide Awakes” now? Go
search your army. Go to the van of that army.
Go to the situations most exposed, and most
dangerous. Go to the Navy-— and you will
search in vain for any of these valorous “Wide
Awakes.”
1 do not say this by way of discouragement.
If the war is neceseary, and it is now upon us,
in God’s name, let us prosecute it. Instead of
that, what is the spectacle? What will be the
history of thd next six months? We will com
mence with the glorious victory of Bethel, from
whence we will go to Vienna, and from there to
Bull Run, thence to Chicamacomac, and from
there to the last place, the name of which Ido
not remember, and there you will find all these
splendid victories that, not only will make us
renowned at home, but renowned abroad.
What did I hear to-day as coming from the
Commander-in-Chief of the United States forces
—from Gen. McClellan? That he dare not fight
on the Potomse. So that we shall have no ‘
more battles, I trust, b this fall. We have now
got in the field some five hundred thousand men*
who have congregated about .Washington and
vicinity, and this array has to be supported at
an expense of two millions and a half a day,'and
yet we are to have no battles this fall ! Why ?
Because the Commander-in-Chief says he dare
not fight. Now, gentlemen, what is the Eng
lish of all this? Why, that this country will, in
the first place, be placed under a heavier load
of debt than any country on the face of the
earth. And, in the next place, gentlemen, there
is nothing more sure in my mind—the sun is
not more certain to rise to-morrow —than that
the independence and nationality of the Confed
erate States of America will be recognized by
England and France and other European nations
in less than six months.
Jefferson City, Nov. 3.
The following is a special to the St. Louis
Democrat:
“A scout anived here yesterday and reports
at headquarters that he had left Gen. Price on
Sunday last at Neosho, with 13,000 of his own
men and 5,000, Indians, under Gen. MeCulloch
They had no “intention of meriting a stand in
Missouri,
McCulloch himself had gone to Fayetteville,
Ark., to change thp direction of reinforcements
to Camp Wa’ker, Ark*, --instead of Missouri,
where Gen. Price will join him.
Gen. Lane is south of Gen. Price, and has
sent to Gen. Fremont for reinforcements, and a
large mounted force ha* gone Jo his aid.
Ger, Lane had a skirmish with Gen. Price's
rear guard, but with what result is not known.
Interesting from Arkansas and Missonri.
The New Orleans Bulletin is informed by u
gentleman, well known, and direct from Na
poleon, Ark., that ho met there a reliable man, a
Mr. Johnson, who left Little Rock, Ark., on the
28th or 29th uP, at which place Gen. Albert
Pike, the Confederate Indian Agent, had just
arrived the Indian Nation. The Mr.
Johnson left Little Rock, an Indian courier
came in to inform Gen. Pike that 2,000 Creeks
were on their way to join the other Indian forces
already raised for the Confederate service at
Tahlquah, and that the combined Indian forces
would amount to 6,000 warriors, with scalping
knives, as they said, “to scalp the Dutch.”—
They would march immediately to join Price’s
and McCulloch’s men. It was reported by a
discharged soldier that Gen. Price had 35,000
men and Gen. McCulloch 5,500; that they were
on their way to unite their forces ; and when the
Indians arrived the combined army would num
ber 50,000 men, Our Generals and men did not
doubt their ability to defeat aDy force that Fre
mont.could bring against them. General Price
had sent to Memphis for percussion caps, which
had been promptly dispatched to him.
Reported Recapture of Fort Hatteras.
A private dispatch, received in this city yes
terday, says the Charleston Mercury of the Btb,
brings the gratifying news of the recapture of
Fort Hatteras, N. C., by the Southern forces.
We know that an expedition has been in prepara
tion for some time to retake that post, and we
hope that the report of its success may prove to
be true.
The Yankees sailed southward perfectly con
fident of their ability to make a lodgment at
Port Royal, as appears from the following, which
we find in the Charleston Mercury : “The ‘sealed
orders’ of one of the Yankee steam transports,
lately driven ashore on our coast, contained in
structions to the Sailing Master, ’ln the event
of being separated from the fleet, to report, at
soon as possible, to the Quarmaster, U. S. A.,
at Port Royal, S. C.'”
