COLUMBUS. TUESDAY. NOVEMBER 19. 1861.
Affairs in New York.
From a gentleman who very recently suc
ceeded in reaching this city, from the North,
says the Richmond Dispatch, we learn that
business is completely prostrated, and a visit
or, passing through its streets, would be dis
posed to think that Sunday'extended through
the entire week. Os the numerous large whole
sale establishments, but one is doing anything
in the way of trade, and failures are the com
mon events of the day. The feelings of the
people are still yery bitter against the South,
but the idea of subjugation seems to have been
in a great measure abandoned. It is not so
dangerous to talk “secession” as heretofore,
and there are some who dare to express an
honest fsentiment and yet escape the pun
ishment of the bastile. It is the belief of our
informant that the mass of the people would
be glad of an excuse to bring the war to a close
by the intervention of a foreign power. Our
own opinion is, however, that it will be some
time yet before they come to their senses.
New York Elections.
The New.York Herald, of the 7th, contains the
following in regard to the elections in this State,
which came off on the 6th :
We are yet unable to give the entire vote of
the State on the different candidates, or the ex
act majority that the Union State ticket has re
ceived. The vote throughout the State has been
very light, and we predict will be found to be
iess than two-thirds of the vote polled one year
ago. The indications are that William W.
Wright, the Democratic candidate for Canal Com
missioner, has slipped in between Talmadge
and Bruce, although the friends of the latter
still claim his-election.
In this city the returns exhibit's mixed and
jumbled up mess, and that but little attention
has been paid by the voters to the regularity of
the nominations. Contrary to general expecta
tions, Woodruff and Hoffman, of the Superior
Court, have been defeated and C. L. Monell and
J. M. Barbour elected in their place. This
shows very plainly that it takes something be
sides a nomination to elect candidates in New
York. Hoffman and Woodruff' received nearly
all the nominations, but Monell and Barbour ap
pear to have received the votes.
The Republicans have secured four of the
seventeen Assemblymen from this city ; of the
other thirteen, two or three were run on the
Republican ticket but are Democrats.
The four Senators from the city are Democrats
but are on the war platform.

Billy Wilson’s Official Report.
We are indebted to the kindness of a friend who
recently arrived from Yankeedom, for New York,
Baltimore and Washington papers, says the Rich
mond Enquirer of the 9th, which reached us last
evening through the hands of Capt. O'Rorke, of
the Ist regiment of Louisiana volunteers. We
make the following extract:
From the Baltimore Patriot of Nov. 2d, we
copy the following :
Col. (Billy) Wilson, of the N. Y. Zouaves,
writes to Gen. Arthur that in that recent brush
with the Confederates on Santa Rosa Island, his
loss was 20 killed and 15 wounded and 20 pris
oners. He adds ;
“Our new clothes are all destroyed; I lost ev
erything I had; my men also. They burned
us out completely. Our papers and books were
burned. My commission is safe. I sent it to
the post office the day before the fight. My men
did well. They have smelt gunpowder—now
they are all right.
“They are exhibiting mv hair and head in
Pensacola ; the reward is already claimed; al
so, an old flag which I nailed to a flag staff on
the 4th of July, which has been hanging there
ever since; nothing left however but the stars.
The ladies have cut*it up in pieces, and have
it pinned on their bosoms as a trophy. Every
one in Pensacola has my sword and uniform.
I must have had a large quantity of hair, plen
ty of swords and uniforms. They I was
to be taken alive I was to be put in a cage and
exhibited.”
The report concludes with these jerky and
suggestive sentences, which sounds very oddly
in an official paper, but nevertheless tell the
whole story :
“We lay upon our arms every night. I have
slept but very little this week. I don’t feel
well. I have got the diarrhoea. We want 800
uniforms.
“Your obedient servant,
“WM. WILSON,
“Colonel Com’g.”
From thb Army of thb Kanawha.— -The
Norfolk Day Book, of the.Hth, publishes the
following extract of a letter received in that city:
Raleioh C. H., Va, Nov. 4th, 1861.
I have just returned from another scout which
proved successful to us. We killed several of the
enemy, and took 15 prisoners, with many valua
ble horses. We visited several Union houses
during the scout, and I laid in a large stock of
bed quilts, woolen counterpanes, and other neces.
sary articles. I will not suffer for bed-clothing
during the winter. I think that our whole force
will be in Charleston in a week or two, I un
derstand that Floyd killed and captured about
1,000 Yankees on yesterday—a pretty good haul
for tliis late season.
London Times hitsthe heart of the
matter when it says: “The last twelve months
have shown that the Northerners and South
erners are as irreconcilable as Greeks and
1 urks, or Germans and Magyars. This war
will but intensify and perpetuate animosities
which the very nature of things had long ago
created.” 88
RETALIATION.
Asa matter of general interest, we copy the
subjoined correspondence of the Richmond
Enquirer. It confirms our previous publica
tions in reference to the same subject:
C. S. A. War Department, }
Richmond, Nov. 9, 1861. |
Sir —You are hereby instructed to choose by
lot from among the prisoners of war of highest
rank one who is to be confined in a cell ap
propriated to convicted felons, and who is to
be treated in all respects as if such convict,
and to be held for execution in the same man
ner as may be adopted by the enemy for the
execution of the prisoner of war Smith, recent
ly condemned to death in Philadelphia.
You will also select thirteen other prisoners
of war, the highest in rank of those captured
by our forces, to be confined in the cells reser
ved for prisoners accused of infamous
crimes, and will treat them as such so long as
the enemy shall continne so to treat the like
number of prisoners of war captured by them
at sea, and now held for .trial in New York as
pirates.
As these measures are intended to repress
the infamous attempt now made by the enemy
to commit judicial murder on prisoners of war,
you will execute them strictly, as the mode
best calculated to prevent the commission of
so heinous a crime.
Your obedient servant,
J. P. BENJAMIN,
Acting Secretary of War.
To Brig. Gen. John Winder, Richmond, Va.
Headquarters Dep’t of Henrico, )
Richmond, Va., Nov. 1, 1861. )
Hon. J. P. Benjamin, Sec'y of War :
Sir —ln obedience to instructions contained
in your letter of the 9th inst., one prisoner of
war of the highest rank in our possession was
chosen by lot, to be held for execution In the
same manner as may be adopted by the enemy
for the execution of Smith, recently condemn
ed to death in Philadelphia. The names of the
six Colonels were placed in a can. The first
name drawn was that of Col. Corcoran, 69th
N. Y. S. M., who is the hostage chosen to an
swer for Smith.
In choosing the thirteen, from the highest
rank, to be held to answer for a like number of
prisoners of war captured by the enemy at sea,
there being only ten field officers, it was nec
essary to draw by lot three Captains. The first
names drawn were Captains J. B. Ricketts, H.
McCuade and J. W. Rockwood.
The list of thirteen will therefore stand —
Colonels Lee, Cogswel l , Wilcox, Woodruffand
Wood: Lieutenant-Colonels Bowman and Neff

Sir: —ln obedience to your instructions, all
the wounded officers have been exempted as
hostages to await the result of the trial of pris
oners captured by the enemy at sea. I have,
therefore, made selections by lot of Captains
H. Bowman and T. Keffer, to replace Captains
Ricketts and McQuade, wounded.
The list of thirteen will now stand—Colonels
Lee, Cogswell, Wilcox, Woodruff, and Wood;

A large supply of soap may be extracted
from every corn field at this season of the year.
While a thousand pounds of oak wood yield
only two and a half pounds of potash, a thou
sand pounds of corn-stalks will yield 17 pounds

Confederate Navy. —The Secretary of the
Navy advertises for proposals and plans, up to
December Ist, for the construction of four sea
going, iron clad and ball proof steam ram ships,
to carry at least four heavy guns each. Now
for you, Mr. Butts.
“The Battle of Belmont.” —So the conflict
we have called the battle of Columbus, for lack
of another name, is to be entitled, it appears,
from the immediate locality of the fight. This
nomenclature induces us to “take back” the
name “Columbus” we proposed for the Mobile
marine “ram.” Now the matter is open for the
taste of those who have the privilege of na
ming the machine, to select from the titles of
our victorious battles—Big Bethel, Bull Run,
Belmont, Leesburg, etc. Apropos, we find the
following in the Memphis Appeal:
“The landing of our fleet at “Bull Bay” is a
sad omen. Our Big Bethel, Bull Run, and
Ball’s Bluff affairs have satisfied us that the
letter B is notour “lucky letter” by any means.
[Evansville, la., Journal.”
To this alliterative list of unlucky names,
you may now add that of Belmont battle. Big
Bethel, Bull Run, Ball’s Bluff and Belmont,
are all “stinging bees.”
What Does it Mean? —The London Shipping
Gaxette of the 19th ult. says:
Two batteries of 16 pounder smooth bore guns
were yesterday withdrawn from the depot of the
Royal Artillery at Woolwich and ordered to be
for embarkation in the Black Eagle
transport vessel, at Deptford, for the use of the
Artillery \ olunteers in Prince Edward Island.
Three batteries of 12-pounder Armstrong guns
and equipment were ordered to be got in readi
ness for dispatch by an early conveyance to
Quebec.

BATTLE IN MISSOURI.
CONFEDERATES VICTORIOUS.
Memphis, Nov. 18 h.
The Appeal publishes an extra announcing a
battle near Springfield, Mo. Condfederates
victorious. Federal force vastly superior, inclu
ding Fremont’s oeltbrated body guard. Federal
loss in killed and wounded heavy. Price and
McCulloch are confident of driving the enemy
out of Missouri.
Ordinance of Secession passed the Legislature
of Missouri unanimously by a full quorum of
both Houses.
The bearer of dispatches from Neosho for Rich
mond, brings the above news.
Richmond, Nov. 18.
Congress met to-day with barely a quorum
preseur, and adjourned to to-morrow when the
message will be delivered.
Intelligence from Washington states that
two more naval expeditions will soon be en
route for the South. [Believed to be gammon.]
It is reported that the Privateer Sumter has
been captured on the coast of Texas by the
frigate Niagara.
Official Federal report of casualities at Port
Royal, says 8 killed, 23 wounded.
Boston, Nov. 14.
An arrival reports the capture of an English
steamer by a Federal frigate. The former had
on board munitions of war. She was carried
into Key West.
Halifax, Nov. 14.
The Commercial London Times says it would
be glad to see the establishment of the Con
federate States, because the political power
of the South would be lessened.
Sir John Packington, in a recent speech, said
the Great Powers should remonstrate against th e
continuance of the war in America.
The Paris correspondent of the Independent
Beige intimates that the proposed intervention in
Mexico has an ulterior objeet, and says the time
must come when the cotton blockade must cease,
and names January as the time.
Fourteen English and French war vessels are
at Halifax.
A dispatch from Washington to Balt : more on
the 14th says, $2,000,000 worth of cotton was
seized at Beaufort; that the Carolinians were
professing loyaity to the Government; that
preparations were making to establish a navy
yard ; and other balderdash.
Latest from Port Royal.
The Savannah Newa of the 15th, has the fol
lowing:
We have no newa to-day of a public charac
ter, nor any rumors worthy of notice. Nothing
positive is known of the movements of the
Yankee invaders or of their fleets. It is gener
ally believed that a number of the vessels have
left Port Royal, but nothing is known of their
destination. It is possible they are cruising on
the coast looking for some sand battery upon
which they can bring their combined force to
bear, or it may be that they have gone to the
Gulf. Their transports have probably returned
to the North to convey the news of their glorious
achievement at Port Royal, and to bring rein
forcements. A few days will bring us informa
tion of their movement. In the meantime the
most active preparations are making to take oare
of the spawn they have left upon our shores.—
We can only say that the prospect is propitious.
Important from Missouri.
From the New York Herald of the 7th, we
extract the following in regard to the progress
of the war in Missauri:
The Forces of Fremont and Price—Fremont
Preparing for Battle.
Spkihgfikld, Mo., Nov. 2.—A special to the
St. Louis Republican says:
Reliable information has been received here
from different sources that Gen. Price was at
Cassville on Thursday last, with 25,000 men,and
that Ben. MoCulloch was ten miles this side of
that place with 10,000 more, with the intention
of marching on Springfield and offering battle on
the old Wilson’s Creek grounds. McCullooh
was expecting 10,000 additional troops, from
Arkansas. Large numbers of the residents of
Green, Jasper, and other adjoining counties re
cently joined Gen. Price's army, and many of
our officers think that the rebel force numbers
nearly 60,000 men.
Gen. Fremont has been up nearly the whole
of the past five nights, making the most perfect
arrangements for a battle, and the confidence of
the army in him was never so great as at the
present time.
Gens. Lane and Sturgis have arrived, and
Gens. Pope and McKinatry are hourly expected.
The Friends of Fremont ty to induce him to
rematn in the Federal Army.
Springvibld, Mo., Nov. 3.— Gen. Fremont
has been induced to delay his departure until
the arrival of Gen. Hunter, who is expected
this evening.
Gen. Pope arrived this morning.
Efforts are making by the friends of General
Fremont to induce him to remain with the army,
even in a subordinate capacity. Many of his
staff officers are anxious to stay until after a
battle, and Cols. Lovejoy, of 111., and Starks
and Hudson, of la , will do so whether the Gen
eral does or not.
The enemy are reported moving north from
Cassville, and Gen. McKinstry is just about to
start, with a considerable body of cavalry and
artillery, to make a reconnoisance in force.
Fremont refueet to remain in the Federal Army.
—Derparture of Gen. Fremont and Staff.
Springfield, Nov. 4.— The efforts to induce
Gen. Fremont to remain in the army, to act in
the coming battle in a subordinate capacity to
General Hunter, have failed.
Gen. Hunter arrived during last night, and
Gen. Fremont and most of his staff departed to
day.
General Hunter had an interview of one
hour and a half’s duration with Gen. Fremont
this morning, in which the latter gave the for
mer all the intelligence in reference to the posi
tion of the enemy, and laid before him the plan
of battle decided upon by himself and the com
manders of divisions at their councils of war
held last evening.
The reconnoisance determined on yesterday
was postponed just on the eve of departure by
order of General Fremont.
A scout who arrived last night reports the
enemy moving slowly in this direction. McCul
loch has the advance post, and on Friday was
ten miles this side of Cassville, so that by to
day they must be very near us. A battle is
imminent at any moment. The enemy greatly
exoeeds our force; but no fears are felt for the
result. Our army is all here now, excepting
Gen. Hunter’s division.
From the Memphis - Appeal, 14th.
Later from Columbus.
Hearing a rumor on yesterday that Colonel
Bowen’s brigade, stationed near Mayfield, bad
just had a heavy skirmish in that vicinity with
the enemy, we telegraphed last night to Column
bus for the particulars, and received through a
friend the following response:
“There has been no fight as reported. The en
emy have gone into their holes.
“We have exchanged the wounded Federal
prisoners for all of our well men.
“All is quiet to-night.
