FORTRESS MONROE, NOV. 12, 1861.
The steamer Beinville has just arrived at
Old Point from the great expedition.
She left Port Royal on Sunday and brings
cheering intelligence. She proceeds at once
to New York where sho will be due to-uiorrow
evening.
Capt Stcedman, however, left her at this
place, and proceeds direct to Washington with
dispatches aud trophies—two brasscausou and
secession flags.
lie reports the gale encountered by the
fleet to hare l*een very severe. The Union
and Osceola went ashore aud were lost as pre
viously reported.
The Governor foundered at Bea, but the
Issac T Smith succeeded in saviug all her
crew with the exception of a few marines. The
fleet arrived at Port Rjyal on Monday, the
4ih inst.
On Tuesday the sma'ler gun boats rounded
and buoyed out the channel under a fire from
the forts which did no damage.
On Wednesday the weather prevented active
operations, but on Thursday morning tlie 7th
the men of-war and gun-boats advauced to the
attack
The action commenced at 10 a ra. and was
hotly carried on on both sides and lasted about
four hours. At the end of which time the
rebels were compelled by the shower of shells
to abandon their works aud beat a hasty re
treat.
Our loss was eight men and an officer.
The Chief Engineer of the Mohigau was
killed, and about twenty wounded.
Rebtl loss uot known. Fifty bodies were
found by our men and were buried.
All their wounded except two were carried
off.
Two forts were captured--Fort Walker on
Hilton Head, mounting tweuty three guns aud
Fort Beauregard ou Bay Point,mounting nine
teen guns. The guns were of heavy calibre.
They were both new and splendid earthworks
Of great strength, constructed in the highest
style of military science aud pronounced by our
Euglneerti as impreguable agaiust any assault
by laud forces.
The final retreat of the rebels was a perfect
route. They left everything, arms, equip
ments of all kinds, even to the officers swords
and commissions.
All the letters and papers, both public and
private,order hooks and documents of all kinds,
were left iu their flight and fell into our hands,
affording our officers much valuable informa
tion. Among the papers was a telegram from
Jeff Davis to the commander of the post, in
forming liim of the .sailing of the fl-etand that
he knew their destination to be Port Royal
(Qatry ? who was the trai or ?)
The whole surrounding country was seized
with a perfact panic. The day after the fight
the Seneca and two other gunboats under the
command of Lieut Amman, proceeded up the
Beaufort, and fount! but one white man iu the
town, and he was drunk.
All the plantations up the river seemed to
be deserted except by the negroes who were
eeen in great numbers and who as the boats
passed came down to the shpre with bundles
in their hands as if expecting to be taken off
They seized all the letters in the post office
at Beaufort.
After the capture of the forts the whole
army about fifteen thousand men, were safely
landed and established on shore.
The fort* were but little injured, bnt the
rebels could uot stand live explosion of our big
shells.
The force of the em my, as ascertained from
their papers was from three to four 'bousand
men uuder Geueral Drayton, of South Curo

Our victory is complete, the enemy leaving
everything but their lives, which they saved by
running.

CAPTURE OF MASON AND SEIDELL
FORTRHBS MONROE, Friday, Nov. 15, 1861.
The United 8' ates frigate San Jucinto.C.ipt
Wilkes, came irrto the Roads to-day with Sli
dell and Mason as prisoners on board.
They had embarked on board and English
mail steamer. Hearing of th-e fact, Capt.
Wdkes determined to take them, and, coming
up with the steamer in the Bermuda Channel,
he sent aboard and demanded the surrender of
the arch rebels. The reply was, that there was
not. force enough to take tliern.
Capt. Wilkea thereupon put the San Jacinto
into a convenient position, and sent Lieut Fair
fax and thirty five armed men from the San
Jacinto with five officerß, who boarded the 1
steamer and picked out the Commissioners. 1
Messrs. Siidell and Mason made feeble re
sistance, but wereitiduced to leuve with Lieut.
Fairfax.
The Captain of the steamer raved and
swoie, railed the United States officers "pira
tical Yankees" and other abusive names.
One of the Secretaries of the Rebel Commis
sioners, named Hustod or Hur-taoe, also show
id resistance ; but himself and colleague ao
eompanied their employers to confinement.
Messrs. Siidell and Mason were then sur
j rendered.
The English steamer took them on board
1 knowing, who tbey were, their destination and
! business.
Capt. Wilkes is understood to have acted
on> his own responsibility.
M essrs Siidell and Mason asked permission
of Gen. Wool to scud letters to their friends,
which was granted. The letters were open of
j course.
DISASTROUS FORAGING EXPEDI
TION.
WASHINGTON, NOV. 17, LE>6l.
Yesterday morning a foraging party .consist
ing of fifty-seven of the 30ih N. Y. Volunteers,
attached to Gen. Reyes's Brigade, went, cut to
Doolin and Brush's Farm, three miles and a
. half westofUptous Hill, to draw away the
j forage which they had collected and left a day
or two before. They took with them five four
horse wagons, and after loading up, Doolin,
one of the owners of the farm, invited the men
in to dinner. The soldiers foolishly accepted,
and more foolishly stacked their arms outside
the house, and went in, leaving eight men act
ing as pickets in the neighborhood. The mo
! meut the men sat.down to dinner Doolin dis
j patched a servant to the house of Brush, a
mile distant, with a message that he should in
form the Rebels of the presence of our soldiers
This being done, liebi.l cavalry, numbering
about 200, suddenly appeared,overpowered the
pickets before they couid give alarm, and sur
rounded our.festive fools at Doolin's table. A
number ol men made their escape, but the fol
tewing, together with the wagons and horses,
were captured by the Rebels; Capt VV. L.
Laiiuing, Second Lieutenant Jas. W. Andrews,
Corporals M. White, P. Coonev and G. 11.

nor and Ned ILiley. Doolin and Brush, who
previous to this time, were supposed to be
good Union men. were arrested to-day on the
charge of having betrayed our troops.
THE REBEL ARMV OPPOSITE.
It is not believed at Headquarters that any
considerable number of troops have been with
drawn from the Rebel army opposite Wash
ington, in consequence of the invasion of South
Carolina. Beauregard has uot gone to Charles
ton as reported. The rumor, however, which
imputes to him inclination to resign unless
a tui re vigorous policy be adopted in the con
duct ol the war, is uot without foundation.
THE MASSACRE AT GUYANDOTTE,
VIRGINIA.
CINCINNATI , NOT. IT, 1861. I
The defeat of the Union forces at Gtiyan
dotte, on Sunday night, was accompli-hed by
trickery on the part of the inhabitants.
It seems that a force of rebel cavalry, var
iously estimated at from 500 to 1.000. had
concentrated in the country back of the town,
and it was proposed, with the assistance of the
rebel inhabitants of Guyandotte, to annihilate
the Federal forces in that town. The Federal
troops consisted of 250 men of the Virginia
Regiment, and a few of Ziegler's Virginia ca
valry. It was arranged between the rebel ca
valry and rebel citizens to massacre our troops
in cold blood
Accordingly, the rebel citizens became very
courteous to our troops, and, on last Sunday
evening, invited them to their houses on vari
ous pretexts. The invitation was accepted by
all who were off duty, and, while they were
being entertained, at about 8 12 o'clock at
night, the rebel cavalry dashed into the town
Signals were displayed from every house where
the loyal Virginians were unsuspiciously en
joying themselves, and into these the rebels
rushed, murdering the unarmed soldiers in add
blood. The rebel citizens, men and women,
rushed to arms, and aided the cavalry in the
slaughter.
The Federal troops who were in camp pre
pared as soon as possible for their defence, but
were everpowered, and had to break lines and
retreat. Very few of our men were killed in
the engagement with the cavalry, nearly all
the killed being murdered in the houses
When Col. Ziegler arrived and ascertained
the particulars of this fiendish outrage, he
ordered the destruction of the town. The build
ings were immediately fired,aud the whole town
reduced lo ashes.
CAPTURE OF FIFTY WAGONS AND
FIVE HUNDRED OXEN BY THE
REBELS.
KANSAS CITY, Saturday, Nov. 10, 1861.
A wagon-master arrived here gives inforina
lion of the capture by the Rei els, at 3 o'clock
this morning, a mile and a half from Pleasant
Hill, Cass Coir ty, Missouri, of filty wagons
and five hundred oxen, which were on their
way to Sedalia. When the wagon master
escaped, the yokes of the oxen were be ng
burdfcd, and preparations were also being made
to burn the wagons. The teamsters were all
take' nrisdnera.
Colonei J< nni on will march immediately for
Pleasant Ilili.
The creation o,' the new militarv district of
Kansas, with Major General Hunter in com
mand, gives great satisfaction and confidence
to the citizens of Kansas.
General Lane's command was expected at
Fori Scott on the evening of the li'h inst.
A doubtful report says that there is a force
of a thousand Rebels at Bower's Mills, fifty
miles iroin Fort Scott.
THE FLEET GONE SOUTHWARD.
FORTRESS MONROE, Friday, Nov. 15.18C1.
The fleet is understood to have gone to
Pensacola.
News of another exploit may be expected
soon.
A dispatch from Savannah, the 14th states
that the fleet bad passed Fernandina, standing
southward.
Privrte advices represent that the captare
of Port Royal has produced the greatest ex
cite me tit throughout the Sooth, and especially
along the seaboard,from the cities and villages
of which the people are fleeing in the greatest
precipitation.
A dispatch from Charleston to The Rich
mond Inquirer, the 14th, states thai Gen.
Sherman had taken possession of Pickney
Islands, seized all the able-bodied negro men
and sent them to the fleet.
MOVEMENTS OF GEN. PRICE AND
BEN MeCULLOCH.
&N. Loris, Sato/day, NOT. 16. 186 L
The armies of Gen. Price and Ben McCul
loch luave retreated into Arkansas. It is under
stood that they have gone to Fort Smith,
where supplies Have been collected,and Winter
quarters built. Before leaving Missouri, they
fired all the hay siacks, corn-cribs, Ac., in
their vicinity, to prevent our forces from ob
taining forage in ca.>e we pursued them.
Previous reports regarding the iuimiuency
of a battle on the 2d inst, originated in a
large foraging parly of Rebels ou Wilson's
Creek being mistaken for the advauee guard
of the enemy.
REPUDIATION BY GEN. HUNTER OF
THE TREATY BETWEEN PRICE
AND FREMONT
ST. Loris, Saturday, Nov. 16, 1861.
Geu. Hunter has sent a letter to Gen.
Pric, by a flag of truce,repudiating the treaty
between Gens. Fremont and Price, entered in
to November 1, and addressed a letter to
Adjt.-Geu. Thomas, setting forth his reasons
therefor.
THE BATTLE OF PIKETON NOT A
HOAX.
WASHINGTON, Monday, Nov. 18,1861.
A dispatch from Cincinnati states thut the
reported battle at Piketon was a hoax. If a
hoax, it was one which resulted iq the capture
of twenty-seven hundred prisoners. The misap
prehension arose from the fact of two battles
having been fought. On the first day, the
main battle was fought, in which four hundred
were killed and twenty-seven hundred taken
prisoner. The following day, however, the
rebels rallied, and in the skiriui>h that ensued
they lost between thirty and forty men. That
we have not earlier received full intelligence
from Gen. NELSON is attributed to'he fact that
Piketon is nearly 150 miles from railroad com
munication, and the intervening space is over
a mountainous district, and at this seasou of
the year over bid roads.
The Fiftieth Pennsylvania Regiment
in the late Gaie.
The accounts of the naval expedition, report
the almost miraculous escape of the steamer
Winfield Scott, having on board about 500
men of the Fiftieth Pennsylvania regiment
The gale on Friday night was very severe,
and the Scott was exposed to the full force
of the storm ; she had her masts all carried
away, and her bows stove in, and suffered in
other ways. She is an iron steamer, new, this
being her first trip. During the gale her iron
and wood separated, abaft the starboard pad
dle-box, opening a hugb seam, which let the
water enter in t rreuis All the soldiers (500
of the Fiftieth Pennsylvania regiment) were
set to work at the pumps. They behaved ad
mirably, both officers aud men, and are highly |
couimeuded by the captain and officers of the
ship fur their efficient service.
Some of her own officers, however, did not
behave so well, but disgrased themselves and
their ship, as will appear in their sequel. The
Scott ran up the signal of distress, which
brought to her assistance the Bienville. The
officers of the Scott manned their boat, placed
in it three wounded men and women, who,
with tlf bout's cr w <_ot safelv on board the
Bienville, out ''"bout swauio-d • M" ;
The Bienville then sent her own boat,anteu
no Sooner came near the Scott, than the engi
incr, his assistant, the carpenter, and a num- j
her of the crew, basely deserted I heir posts,
leaped into the boats, and went on board the
Bienville, when this boat also swamped. The
Bienville then resolved to lie by the Scott, to
render her all assistance in case of further uud
mare urgent ueed.
The Scott, however, by dint of throwing
overboard all her subsistence stores, and by
the vigorous help of the soldiers, succeeded in
weathering the storm. In the hurry cf the
moment, owing to some misunderstanding cf
orders, about three hundred of the Pennsyl
vania Fiftieth.tiirew overboard tli'irguus.knap
sacks uud overcoats. With regard to the de
sertion of the ship, by the engiueers and oth
ers, it may be stated that the eugiues at no
time ceased working, or were* in any way out
of order. The ship is built iu three compart
meuts, and water entered but one, and came
into that one through ;ne rudder hole. The
desertion of their posts, by those men at such
a time was as unnecessary as it was cowardly.
Destructive fire iu Philadelphia.
PHILADELPHIA, NOV. 14, 1861.
This morning at 2 o'clock, a fire broke out
in the iron works of Ridgewav A Co., at the
corner of Ashmead aud Clinton street, Ger
mantown. The (limes spread with great rapid
ity, entirely destroying the buildings aud a
large quantity materials. The loss is esti
inaied at SIO,OOO, upon which there is insu
rance of $7,000.
The works were usually engaged in the man
ufacture of hardware ; but lately the hands
were largely employed iu making sabres for
the Government. It is supposed that the
J place was set on fire.
It is a singular fact that within a short time
no less than seventeen woolen factories in va
rious parts of the north, all of which were en
gaged in the manufacture of supplies for the
army, have been in whole or part destroyed
by fire. Othei establishments employed on
Government work of other descriptions, have
been destroyed, and a suspicion is excited that
the conflagrations have been caused by trait
ors who wish to cripple the operations of the
Government.
Meeting of the Stockholders of the
Pennsylvania Railroad.
PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 14.
The Stockholders of the Pennsylvania Rail
road nga'n met at noon today.
The tellers then announced the vote on the
resolution agreeing to tlie lease of the Phila
delphia and Erie Railroad. The vote was as
below ;
Whole nnmlier of shares vottd 137,006
In lavor of the lease, 133.622
Against the lease 2.374
Majority, 133,148
As the Philadelphia and Erie Railroad Coin
pany have excepted the lease, this action of
the Pennsylvania Railroad Compuny makes it
a duality.

E. O. aOODRICM, EDITOR
TOWA.:NI>A. :
Thursday Morning, November 21, 1861.
THE LATEST WAR NEWS.
The topic of absorbing interest is, of course,
the arrest of Mason and Slidell.
The news published last week to the effect
that a latge body of Union troops had sud
denly appeared in Eastern Virginia,would now
seem to have been prematurely announced; for
we learu that on Sunday 4.000 of our men
were to march from Snow Hill, Md. f into Ac
eomac and Northampton Counties. Gen. Dix
issued n proclamation to the people of Virgin
ia, calling on them to offer no obstruction
to the intended occupation of their territory,
and promising in that ease thai thoy should
be in no unaeces-ary way molested.
We hear from Western Virginia that on the
LOtb Gen. Cox's brigade crossed the Kenna
wha and New River, acd drove the enemy
three miles back from their positions. Gen.
Benham had a sharp skirmish with them,
which was ended by the fall of night ; the
rebels took advantage of this respite to run ;
as soon as Gen. Benham discovered their move
ment, he set out after them, but after a chase
of twenty five miles through adreucbiug rain,
gave up the pursuit.
Dispatches from Fortress Monroe state that
the rebels in large forces have gathered at
Great Bethel,and that an attack by them upon
Newport News is not improbable, but beyond
tbis we have no information on the uoint.
Messrs Gwin, Benham, and Brant, who ar
rived at New- Voi k on Friday in the Champi
on, were on Saturday rc-arrested and sent to
Fort Lafyetie, preparatory to being removed
to Fort Warren, iu Boston Harbor.
A foraging party went out from the neigh
borhood of Washington on Saturday and suc
ceeded in obtaining a large quantity of corn.
A squad iu charge of five wagons accepted
from a preteuded Union man un invitation to
dinner ; whiUpartakiog of this refreshment,
having separated from their wagons and left
their arms behind them, they were cut off and
most of them captured by rebel cavalry. The
forage was also taken.
Byway of Key West and Havana, we learn
that the rebels have recently made another at
tempt to capture BILLY WILSON'S Zouaves, on
Santn Rosa Island, but that their failure was
even more humiliating than on the first oc
casion. It appears that Col. WILSON'S patrols
discovered some fifteen hundred rebel troops
about twenty miles from Fort Pickens, and im
mediately informed the commander of the Na
tional fleet, who sent a force and shelled the
rebels off the Island, with great loss.
Letters published in the Cincinnate Gazette
and writteu by those engaged in the famous
fight at Piketon, Kentucky, must be accepted
as conclusive evidence that the maguitude of
the engagement lias been greatly overrated
The rebels had a force of 740 men—Cls in
fantry aud 125 cavalry. The National forces,
under Gen. Nelson, came upon them as they
lay in ambuscade, and in the brisk encounter
which followed thirty two rebels were killed
and none takeu prisoners, while the Union
troops lost four killed and had twenty four
wounded. The fighting lasted one hour and
twenty minutes,and ended in the complete rout
of the rebels. On the succeeding morning the
National forces occupied Piketon without
further opposition.
TIIE Cily of Manchester, from Liverpool
and Qurenstown, on the 6:h and 7th inst ,
passed Cape Race on Saturday evening with
four days later news from -Europe. The con
ventiou between England, France, and Spain,
concerning intervention in Mexico was signed
at London ou the 31st nit. A surmise of ulte
rior designs is again afloat. The London
Times finds fault with Secretary Seward's dis
patch to Lord Lyons, and ridicules his circu
lar to the Governors of States concerning tor
tifications. The London Herald and Post
are also occupied with the correspondent of
Lord Lyons and Mr. Seward. It is believed
that France requires a large loan. The con
tinental ue ws generally is not important.
GEN. SCOTT'S PREDICTION —It is very en
couraging that both General Scott and Gen.
McClellan declare that this war can not be
long. The former is more deflnate than the
latter in limiting its duration. Gen. Scott be
fore the Chamber of Commerce aod the Union
Defense Committee, on Friday, averred he
*' had mo doubt " that Gens. McClellan and
Ilallock " will achieve a successful aud honor
able peace wit hi i a few months."
These gentlemen overlooking the whole field
and understanding the opposing forces better
than ordinary observers can do,speak positive
ly—not boastfully, but with calm confidence.
The country may well have faith in their opin
ions on the subject.
MEMBERS OF CONRRESS IN THE ARMY.—
Among the members of the present Congress
now in the active service of the United States
against the rebels, are Hon. John 11. Mo-
Clearmand and Hon. Owen Lovejoy, of
Illinois ; Kellogg, of Michigan ; Senator Wil
son, Massachusetts ; Senator Sherman, of
Ohio ; Hon. Johu S Phelps, of Missouri; Hon.
James S. Jackson,of Kentucky ; Hon. McKee
Dunn, if Indiana ; Senator Lane, of Kansas,
and Edward McPherson, of Pennsylvania.—
Col. Curtis, of lowa, resigned bis seat to ac
