Richmond, Nov. 18.
Maj. Martin of the Natches Cavalry captured
the Captain, Lieut., and thirty privates of the
3Stb New York regiment within two miles of
Uptons mill. Four of the enemy killed and sev
eral wounded. Martin sustained no loss. Five
four horse wagons loaded with corn were cap
tured.
Late northern papers say the North is jubi
lant over the Yankee success at Port Royal.—
The next demonstration will probably be a fleet
attack on Evansport.
An unfortunato surprise of one of our scout
ing parties on the Peninsula, occurred early on
Wednesday morning last, causing the death of
Major Bagley of Mobile, formerly of Georgia,
slightly wounding Capt Morris in the head,and
severely wounding Mr. Rogers in the leg, since
amputated. Both the latter of Burke county,Ga.
Some few Virginians very slightly wounded.—

Northern Dispatches.
New York, Nov. 6.
The Tribune claims the People’s ticket has
carried the State by over 200,000. It is proba
lbe, but not certain, that Wright (Democrat) is
elected Canal Commissioner, to fill a vacancy
in consequence of a division between the Peo
ple’s ticket and the Republicans for that office.
The Legislature will be almost unanimous for
sustaining the Government.
Buefalo, N. Y. Nav. 6.
Wm. F. Fargo, Democrat, is elected Mayor by
several hundred majority, over James Adams,
People's candidate,
Newark, Nov. 6.
The State of New Jersey has gone as follows:
10 Democrats, 10 Independent Democrats and
10 Republicans in the House. There is probably
a small Union majority.
Milwaukee, Nov. 6.
The Btate election passed off quietly. The
city of Milwaukee and county gave 3,500 Demo
cratic majority. Returns so far from the State
indicate the election ofL. F. Harvey (Republican)
for Governor by a large majority. It is thought
the whole Republican State ticket is elected.
The removal of Fremont was received with
much regret, and seems to be the absorbing
topic.
Baltimore, Nov. 6.
The election is proceeding quietly. Gen. Dix
this morning issued instructions to judges to al
low no man to vote who took part or bore arms
in the April riot, or who refuses, when challen
ged, to take an oath of fidelity to the Govern
ment. The whole Union ticket will of course be
elected by a clear and undisputed majority.
Washington, Nov. 5.
On good authority we learn that Gen. Wool
has tendered his resignation.
Gen. Heintzleman has declined hunting for
stray negroes.
The rebels between Chain Bridge and Minei's
Hill fired on our pickets to-day. The extreme
piekets of our army and the rebels in the direc
tion of Occoquan had a friendly interview on
Sunday. One rebel, said to be an impressed
Pennsylvanian, said many regiments Lad been
withdrawn to Richmond, and others were expec
ted to follow. About 14,000 Maryland voters
are believed to be in the rebel army. The peace
party will poll a heavy vote in the Southern
counties, but the Union ticket is sure to carry
the State by a large majority.
The rebels are thought to be building a large
number of flat boats at Quantieo Creek.
The Grand Lodge of Masons, District of Col
umbia, to day resolved that no true mason can
be disloyal to the Gevernment.
It is understood that the entire Union ticket
was elected in Maryland to-day.
Nfw York, Nov. 6,
A letter to the Commercial, from Fort Monroe,
says the resignation of Wool is anticipated there?
also says there is excellent authority for saying
there are two field officers at the fort, a Major
and Lieut. Colonel of Artillety, who are favora
ble to the Southern Confederacy.^
Washington, Nov. 6.
The steam ferry boat Stepping Stone, recently
purchased by the Government in New York, ran
the blockade of the Potomac river last night, and
was not fired upon by rebel batteries. The Step
ping Stone is similar in construction to the
rebel steamer George Page, and is about the
same size, drawing from 3to 3L f e ©t of water
only. She was enabled to hug the Maryland
shore in passing the batteries. She passed a
pigmy pungee, also bound up.
There is now a rebel battery at Aquia Creek,
a few hundred yards north of the old one. Tw©
shells were fired .from it yestarday, apparently
to try the range. ,
There are indications at Matthias Point ! that
j the rebels are at work there, possibly in the way
of entrenching,

Fort Monroe, Not. 5.
The Spaulding has just arrived from Ilatte
ras Inlet, bringing Col. Hawkins, who proceeds
to Washington on a special boat on business
connected with his post.
The storm at Hatteras inlet was very severe
and the recent high tides have completely
overflowed the space outside the forts. Anew
channel is forming between the forts, and it is
apprehended they may become untenable.—
About one-fourth of the clothing of the 20th
Indiana Regiment had been landed from the
Spaulding on Friday night, but the gale com
ing on with tremendous severity, it was wash
ed away. Some other stores were also landed
and lost.
Yesterday ten days’ rations for the fort were
landed, but the Spaulding brings back the
greater part of her cargo.
Five rebel steamers came near the Inlet
yesterday, but retired after tiring a few shots.
Iwo coal schooners, carrying fuel for the
fleet, made Hatteras Inlet during the gale, and
hoisted the signal of distress, but could not be
reached by the vessels inside.
Tnw Drowned at the Battle op Leesburg,
—The Washington dispatches, of the 3d inst.,
says that the freshet in the Potomac was bring
ing down past the city many bodies of those
drowned at the battle of Leesburg. Between the
battle-field and Washington, says the corres
pondent of the Charleston Courier, a number
of wretches were making a revolting profit by
watching in boats Tot floating bodies and rifling
them of valuables. They had mode large gains
from the corpses of a number of officers. The
correspondent ol the Courier gives a horrible ac
count of the battle field, for the Liucolnites in
terred their slain by wholsale in graves so shal
low and ill secured that droves of hogs had
rooted them up and were fattening on the decay
ing remains. He was warned of his approach
to one of those horrid receptacles by the effluvi
vium and sickening spectacle of one hog pursu
ing another with a human hand in its mouth.—
These horrors are charged in the Great Book to
Abraham Lincoln’s account, for he rejected the
olive branch which was tendered and chose the
sword. Those “who take the sword shall per
ish by the sword,” is written.
From Pensacola. — Military Executions. —
We take the following from a letter of the 10th,
from Pensocola, to the Mobile Register and Ob
server:
Yesterday two frigates, a ship and schooner
arrived outside. They occupy the same posi
tions this evening. The armada is slow in
reaching this part of the Confederate coast.
On Friday—an evil day all the world over—
there wore two military executions at Warring
ton or its vicinity. The one a volunteer shot
for the killing ol an orderly sergeant while in
the discharge of his duty as an officer; the other
a regular, for the striking of a Captain. He was
said to have been a most excellent soldier, and,
at the time of committing the offense, was crazy
with liquor. He met his fate like a man. At
the same moment there should have been one
more shot—the man who sold or placed in hia
way the poison. The separation of hia wife, at
the guard quarters, is represented to Lave been
of a most a fleering character.
Dougherty, of the 7th lowa Regi
ment, commanded the Federal forces in the
recent battle near Columbus. He asserts that
neither Gen. Grant nor Gen MeClernand was
on the ground. Col. Dougherty was severely
if not mortailv wounded and taken prisoner.
Northern press ofthe 6lh, report*
a Federal force of 11,000 troops gathered at
Annapolis, awaiting a return of the transports
from liie Southern coast. Their destination is
said to be to reinforce the army already' sent
South.
SIOHING FOR PEACE OUT WEST. —W 8 clip th©
following paragraph from the Nashville Gazette
of the 10th inst.
Willett’s Cairo Gazette, a la*e number of which
has been kindly furnished us by a Paducah ref
ugee, contains an editorial notice of the speedy
resumption of the packet trade between Nash
ville and Cairo. The editor is tired of soldiers,
camps, parades, gun-boats, passports, steamers,
and all the pomp and circumstance of glorious
war, and he expresses an ardent longing for the
reiurn of of commercial prosperity, and the pus
sing of regular packets, He particular sends a
wish after our favorite little steamer the Gen. S.
R. Anderson, and upon his own hook takes the
responsibility of advertising the General to leave
Cairo for Nashville on her first regular semi
weekly trips on the 10th of December. So mote
it be.
