Louis Democrat. A Leavenworth dispatch of Oct., 12th says: I have news from Baxter’s Spring up to 10 o’clock P. M., Oet. 10th. Gen, Blunt has scouted the. whole edimtey east and south of Fort Blair, arid it is now certain thak,the, raidersJiave gone South. Blunt follofred them to within thirty miles of Fort Gibson. He then sent messengers in advance of the rebels to frarn the garrison at Fort Smith and Gibson. The Conservative of this city learns that ' Gen Blunt- is-now returning to Fort Seott-' ’' Of the eighty prisoners taken by the rebels, fifty- Jive were shot through the head, after they had sur rendered. ~ : The late guerilla raids in Missouri have coine to a bad end. On Monday the 12th., Shelby was overtaken at Booneville, and a running fight was kept tip for several miles, restoring in the death of many rebels. The same night the enemy were defeated at Dug Ford, when they divided into four squads. Gen. Brown pursued those going towards Sedaliajtod: drt:Tuedday..sent the folio wiug despatoh from Marshall, .Saline County: f ’ “ After an .hour’s fight we have whipped the rebels, captured their artillery, a. large -number of small arms, part of their train, and killed a number.’ ’ Despatches say that Gen. Brown is pursuing the rebels in all directions. Charleston Harbor. — Attack on the In on? sides.— -On Mopday night, Oet, sth, a daririg but unsuccessful attempt was. made by the rebels to .destroy the frigate New Ironsides, lying near Fort . Moultrie, by a torpedo- They employed for the purpose a small and very swift steamer, cigar-shaped, and having but a small portion above water. 'She was manned by a crew of forir persons, consist ing of Lieutenant .Glassett, who was the commander of the party; an engineer, named Toombs; a fire man, named Scott; and a pilot whose name is un known at the present writing. She eluded the pidket boats oi orir fleet by passing close into the . shore of Sullivan’s Island, She then made directly across the. harbor, and came up to the vessel with : out attracting any attention.. She struck the Iron ■ sides fairly amidships, exploding a torpedo, con taining sixty pounds of rifle powder, at the moment of contact. The explosion was severely felt on the Ironsides, but no material damage was done to her .hull, engine' or armanent. One man had his leg broken, and one of the bulkheads of the vessels was knocked down, which can bri repaired here. The Ironsides wfiri prepared for action by Captain Rowan .immediately, and is as efficient for offensive opera tions as ever! ! She is now regarded here as torpedo proof. . ~ s The Vote of a Judge.—Judge Strong, of the Supreme Court, a loyal Democrat and associate of Judge Woodward, voted the whole Unidn ticket in his precinct in the Seventeenth ward on Tuesday. When such high-minded intelligent men can forget party and vote for country, it is high time, that tpe mass of mere 1 partisans should’emulate and thus profit by such an example.— Press. Louisiana.—The advance of our army in North ern Louisiana according to New Orleans advices to had* reached Monfoe, one-third of the distance from Vicksburg to Shreveport. The re bels under -Dick Taylor retreated to Shreveport. Gur forces waited for reinforcements. The 19th Army Corps reached Vermilliqn river, a few miles soutfr of Vermiilionviile, Oct.t 9th. It it thought there would be no delay in crossing. There was sharp skirmishing, and some prisoners taken from the rebels. Their loss is not known. Gen. Banks is in-the field, .•* By advices from Chattanooga dated Oet. 15th, wc aim informed that the rebel batteries on Lookout Mountain and on the Irift are silent. Onr batteries have driven the rebels from Missionary llidge and Lookout Mountain. I Deserters from the 3d Ken tucky state that a figlit occurred on the 6th, between a Georgia brigade and the rebel regulars, the former refusing to go out of the State- Our trains are runuing regularly on the Nashville and Stevenson Roadi A strong rebel picket, guard, with a lieu tenant, came into our lines in a body, reporting that thefrebeis were building pontoons. This is thought to be an indication of ari attempt to dislodge us by a flank movement across the river, which Gen. Rosecrans has amply provided for. There has been ®rio communication with Gen. Burnside for several days. His army is doing good service," but not in the manner generally supposed at the North. General Lopgstreet has suspended General Polk. The latter has issued a farewell address. Three hundred thousand volunteers have been called for by the President, to serve for three years or the war. They will be received untfl January sth 1864, at which time a draft will be made for the number necessary to complete the complement of . the several States or districts which may be deficient. : The Elections—The result of the election in this State has been a very decided success in the the re-election of Gov. Curtin by at least 20,000 maiority. Valiandighain has been defeated in Ohio bv John Brough, tbe Union candidate for Governor,: bv over 60,000. The returns come in slowly, but thp above figures will not be materially changed when the returns are completed. Pennsylvania and Ohio are loyal to the,lJnion. In lowa, the Rentifficah candidate for Governor, Col. Stone, was elected by 12 or 15,000 majority. _dtt ffffsilrgtfnan aitH dktwjSff , Latest,—Tuesday | On thjs lgth, Gpn.

A successful advance of our army in East Tennessee towards Abington, Ya., is reported by the rebels. A dis patch to Roseerans, dated Rogersville, Ala., Oct. 10th, from Gen. Crook, reports the utter rout of Wheeler’s Cavalry in three encounters, with a prob able loss of -2,000, including 4 guns and 1,000 stand of arms. ’ A rebel-blockade runner~a hag been .destroyed off New'lnlet by our vessels.

She thankfully accepted. the chastisement of suifterlng as the appointed and growing means of leading her to the choice of a better portion than health and ' life can give.

With the exception of a short furlough, he remained at his post; discharging ills duties, till about three months ago he returned hometodie. Lieut. McK. was born near Ballymena, Ireland, Nov. 26th, 18SI; emigrated to thiß country with Ms parents August, 1838. He early made profession of religion m connection with the Reformed Presbyterian Church, and his life has always been in accordance with his profession. Whoa at home, suffering under disease, he manifested no im patience. He waß resigned to the will of God. While at the Springs, whither he had gone with a faint hope that lie might be benentted, he was not without the consolation of religion. The Hcv. Mr. Axteli. who visited him on his death-bed, thus writes: “Upon approaching liis bod add talcing ms hand, I proceeded to set forth the fundamental truths which concern the eoui’s salvfttion, presenting it as the work, of the Lord Jesus and ids Holy Spirit, and the soul’s experience therein in conversion. On asking if such utterance were right, he replied affirmatively, and added that he had endea vored to live a Christian life, and that-lit would be well with him whatever the issue might be, and that his hope was in God alone; and, on my suggestion, that the Lord Jesus was the intermediate ground of hope, to this he assented.” His punctuality in his attendance at the Bible Class andat public worship gave satisfactory evidence that his religion was not a mere profession. He died in the assurance of faith, hoping to meet those whom he loved in a world of About 7 o’clock-of the Any following his la* Interview with Mr. Axteli. his spirit departed.

WILLIAM DURYEA, Wholesale Agent, 166 Pulton St TIMAffCIAL. u. s. THE UNDEBSIGNED AS GENERAL SUBSCRIPTION AGENT, Is authorized by the Secretary of the Treasury, to continue the sale -of this popular Loan, and TEN; DAYS public notice will be given of discontinuance. ABOUT TWO HUNDRED .MILLIONS remain unsold, and' this amount is scarcely sufficient to- fur nish a basis for the circulation of the National Bank ing Associations now being formed in every’part of the country. But a short time iuust elapse before this Loan is wholly absorbed, the demand from Europe, Germany especially, being quite active. As it is well known : that the Secretary of the Treas ury has ample and unfailing resources in the duties on imports; internal revenues, and in the issue of in terest-bearing Legal Tender Treasury Notes, it is nearly certain that it will not. be necessary for him, for a long time to come, to issue further permanent loans, the interest and principal of which are payable in gold. These considerations must lead to the prompt con clusion that the time is not far distant when these “ Five-Twenties ’ ’ will sell at a handsome premium, as was the result .with the “Seven-Thirty” Loan, when it was all sold, and could no longer be subscri bed at par. y ‘ This is a SIX PER CENT. LOAN, the interest and principal being payable in coin, thus yielding about EIGHT PER GENT, per annum at the present premium on gold. It is called “Five-Twenty,” from the fact that whilst the - Bonds may run for twenty years, yet the Government has the right to pay them off in gold, at par, at any time after five years. The interest is paid half-yearly, on the first days of November and May. Subscribers can have Coupon Bonds, which are pay able to bearer, and issued for $5O, $lOO, $5OO, and $l,OOO, or Registered Bonds ot similar denominations, and, in addition, $5,000 and 10,000. . These “Five-Twenties’ 1 cannot be taxed, by States, cities, towns or counties, and the Government tax on them is only one.and a half per cent, on the amount of income, when the income exceeds six hundred dol lars per annum. Income from all other investments, such as mortgages, railroad stocks, bonds, &c., must pay frqm three to Ave per cent, tax on the, income. Banks and Bankers throughout the country will continue to dispose of the Bonds, and all orders j by mail or otherwise, properly attended to. JAY COOKE, .
