On his wny he de-troyed what reiu.iinoil of the

on the surrounding bills. A spirited artillery
duel bu rned a prominent feature in the operations
ol Ihe day. The reverberations of the guns were
heard among the mounhtlnsun'il evening. Cuter
had some skirmishing further to the left. After
11 n interesting little tight, the enemy was every
where handsomely repulsed. The enemy, how
ever, bivouacked lust night not far from where
tbe tight clo-cd last evening.
This morning General Sheridan, having hilled
the principal portion of bis command In the
vicinity ol Fisher's Hill, instructed Oennral Tor
bert to attack the enemy and drive bim uway from
such close proximity to our rear. Torbert went
to work immediately, and carried out both
the letter and the spirit of tho order. Accord
ingly Custer's and Metrltt's Divixions main a
vigorous assault 00 the enemy at an early boar
this morning.
On the right, Merritt's Division occupied a posi.
Hon near the T om's creek, on the Winchester turn
pike, about midway between Htriv-hurg and Wood
stock ; and on the left, Custer's Division occupied
a position near the same stream, on tbd back
ron it, about two miles closer to the mountain.
Custer advanced first with bis cavalry and bore
urtiHtry. He made a bold attack, and drove the
enemy h ick nbout u mile to a strong po-ition 0.1
the brook. There the euemy iu, a deujriuiuod
smnd.
The Rebels were advantageously posted on a
commanding hill. Barricades and Wust works
of rails and stones contributed considerably to
strent'then a position which was niturully'for
midable. General ( ustor, however, throw ia bis
whole command, made three inaguiiieuiit charges,
and at last carried the position by ass iuli.
At the same time a junction was formed with
General Merrlit on the turnpike. Sharp skirmish
ing in the front did not seem to indicate anvthim;
decisive until Hevius' Bi ignite succeeded in stnk
int; the enemy on tbe (lank. This produced c m
steruKtion ill the Hebel ranks in Mcrritl's front.
The whole division line then pushed forward and
followed the enemy, who was now in full retreat.
1 ho reti oat was soon turned luto a perluct rout.
Custer and Mcrtitt pursued the Hying fugitives,
rapturing guns, caissons, wagons, a herd of
rattle, and several hundred prisoners. Amoug
the wnfjous captured aro several ammunition
teutons, and those toutiiiuiiig the bagae be
longing to the Rebel (JcuuaU Wickhtuu and
Loinux's hcuilquariors. Home of the cannon
Hcte new o-inch rltled guns, just lrom the
louiidry in Richmond. 1'iisoucrs say that this
whs the lirst occasion on which those xuus bad
been used in the Rebel service.
I ho enemy was driven In rreal disorder
through Woodstock, through Kdenbur'', und

tlikii tnontymlies from the scene of the com
ineni einent ot this morning's operaiious.

Rr.joiciNO Over tub Victory. This morn
ing Chesnut street, from Third to Sixth, was
alive with excitement. Lnre crowds gathered
around the various newspaper establishments
and political headquarters, to loam the "latest"
from Ihe interior. There was a general rejoicing
over the great Union victory that hsd boon
achieved. Salt liver tickets were uoun.lnnt, and
those who bad voted against their country bung
their heads iu shame.
A delegation from the Second Ward made
tlitir appearance on Chesnut street with a lar.ge
bell placed in a furniture our. As the ear moved
slowly along tho boll was tollod, mnoU lo the
delight of tbe spectators. Abive thu bell was tbo
inseiiption : "Wiieoiid Ward, 100 majority." As
this ward hoa always heretofore gooe bom.K'railc,
the tejoicing over the triumph achieved was by
uo moans out of place.
The excitement throughout the city put night,

"The last mail from tha other aide knin.ht
advice of the protest of about 24,000 bills, drawn)
from New York by a concern In this rttv maenrlw
engaged In gold and exchange speoulataoo. The)
loss on the bills, we bear, will be dlsirtbutett
among several banking booses who pnrchaaecl
and remitted them.
' The mircaniiio failures and threatened bulk
ing troubles in F.ngland will probably lead ta
the earlier withdrawal of a portion of tha large)
American balances for some time in London,
llnin would othejwise have been brought home.
The hazards of the sta'eof war on this side begin
to look small in comparison with tha risk of
leaving money exposed to the wildest operations
of tlie London Stock Exchange, and tbe sargea
ol'the Liverpool cotton market." u
The New York 7Viiune this morning says

Wednfjdat, October 12. There was a sHra
attendance at the Corn Exohange this morning',
tbe desire on the part of the public to obtain lbs)

mercantile community from hnslnese, and cois.

The Flour Market has again been eaaesvely
dull, there being very little demand white.ee
from any source. No sales for shipment hive)
come under our notice. The sa'es have bees)
chiefly confined to the wants of the home trada
