We hud not been in this Camp more than

were out all night and got back to Camp at
nine o'clock this morning, witbont having a
fight. They era now in their tents taking
a snooze preparatory to another march this
morning. From the hard breathing and the
peculiar sound produced through the nasal

bow long the boys will be gone, but the orders
are to cook two days' rations and tuke it with

took a Mujor prisoner, and captured a large
number of horses, sheep and cattle, besides a
large quautity of corn aud potatoes, and about
ninety six toos of bay. A very nice day's
work. The boys are well, io fact, there is no

THE It at It I' LT.
The resnlt of the election on Taenia,
though not yet positively ascertoined, In all
its detail, shows that lbs ticket of the Breck
inridge cliqne is elected, with the exception,
most probably, of tbe cabdidale for Register
and Recorder. Dr. Masser, tha Uino can
didate, runs pretty BeaHy even with Com'
mlng.the Breckinridge candidate for Register
and Recorder, and will, 00 donht, with tbe
vole in the army, receive1 a majority.
H. Y. Bright, Ksq., the Unioo candidate
for Assembly, we regret to say, Is defeated
by small vole, as were all the other Unioo
candidates. The election was warmly con
tested and the most desperate means were
used by the Hreckioridgers, who, of them,
selves, are bnt a small squad, but who, having
the organiaitinn of the party in their bands,
made see of the magic name of Democracy
to carry nut their schemes for tbe distribution
of offices. Thi if boasted majority of one
thoursnd lias, however, dwindled down to
about one hundred, and if tha Democrats,
the great mass of whom are honest In their
intentions, had understood the true issue of
the contest, the Breckinridge squad would
hove been left alone as nuked of strength as
they are of principles or political honesty.

A detatchment of tha Fourteenth N". Y.
Volucteers, by a flauk movement io the rear
(f Monson's Hill, cut off and captured a
mounted officer, a lieutenunt and six privates.
The officer and men were brought to Fort
Corcoran, and one of the men, being wounded,
was snnt to Georgetown Hospital. I'bis is
something very important to us, and it is from
this cause our Regiment was called out last
uigbt. From what I bear now, the whole ar

before yoo get thie joa may bear of some-

Washington, October 6.
Tbe following statement of tho master of
tbe army transport Funny, eives the particu
lars of ber capture by the Reheis :
She was despatched by Colonel Hawkins
wilh clothing, .Xamunition, piovisioos, etc.,
to Cbickumaconico, for tbe supply of tbe
troops recently stationed there. After tbe
news of the capture of the Fanny was recei
ved at Ilatteras, Col. Hawkins called opou
the Commanding Naval Officer in those
waters for a force to go to tbe relief of tbe
troopa Ao aimed expeditioo was fitted out
which sailed on the morning of the 3d iost.,
but nothiog bad been heard from it at bve
o'clock I but eveoiog, wbeo information was
last received from that quarter.
The following is tbe statement sf tba
Master of tha Fanny :
11 atteras Inlet, Oct. 1.
I left io (be steamer Fanny, at four o'clock.
A. it., tor Inickainucooico or Loiteerhead
M.
Wa anchored io about eiiht feet of water.
and waited there two bours aod a half before
we got a communication fiom the shore.
Tbey then fetched a fl it bout oB' aod loaded
ber with ao assorted cargo of stores, tents.
Arc. Wben tbe boat had been shoved off and
got abnol two thirds of tbe way on shore, we
saw a steamboat to tbe westward, about foor
o'clock P. M., which proved to be oue of the
enemy. She was standing to rot off our
retreat, and io a short lime two more appear
ed steering directly towards us. I'be first
ooe then stood in and commenced firing npon
s, ana as soon as tba otber two came op tbey
did tbe same.
Wa returned tbeir fire with nine shots,
striking one of tha boats io tha bow. Then
Captain Hart, of tba Twentieth Iodiaona
hsgtmett, soggettsd ui to loraeeder, saying
that it was no ose fighting against snch odds,
and requested os to boist the white flag.
The mate of the boat and a few soldiers
turned to and threw overboard some thirty
cases of ammunition, and Captaio Hart forbid
tbem . to throw any more overboard. We
then requested tbe Sergeant Major to throw
the cannon overboard, which be refused to
do, saying that it would be worse for them
if tbey were taken prisoners. Captain Hart
then requested the chain to be shipped and
the boat run ashore, which was done.
The white flag was then h osted and the
Crew of the boat left in iheir boats. We
endeavored to get boots to carry the soldiers
from tbn Fanny, but could not do so. To
the best of my opinion they bad plenty of
time from our arrival to that of the enemy's
boats, to have got everything on shore from
the Fanny, if sufficient boots had beeu em
ployed in the transportation of the stores, so
that we could have destroyed the Fanny before
she should have fallen into the bands of the
Reheis.
Wa left there ahont 6 o'clock P. M., in a
ennoe, nnd arrived here about 9 o clock A.
M ., oo the 2d inst.
