RUN, October 13,- 1863; THE RACE FOR THE NOUN' rAIN GAPS. Last . Tuesday < : I paused at Germantown long enough to inform you of the direction in which the Army of the Potomac was moving. All who read mrletter will remember that I did not write that we were advancing on Richmond, but that the race wag for the different mountain gaps. It;is unnecessary far me to state who got into those passes first. I will just mention, as a quietus to all nervousness and fears, that we have - the position at Bull Run, and Gen, knows it. A SHORT, RETROSPECT May I presume to go back to last Tuesday, the day the whole army went back over the Rappahannock., to drive "a handful of cavalrymen bank to Culpeper I I was seeking in vain-for a short repose outside of our lines at Germantown. I say in vain, for the army I expected to surround me that night recrossed the Rappahannock—the let Corps at Kellyi.ford, the 2d, 3d, btb, and 6th extending along the:river's bank 'almost to Sulphur Springs. That very after noon I started for the river, which I reached just after the 2d Corps had crossed. The country for miles around was clear of all timber; a sort Of un dulating prairie, seldom seen in 'Virginia. It was here the different corps formed in -, "line of battle. The day was one of exquisite` loveliness, the scene suck as could never be forgot ten. -Thirty thousand men appeared to be drilling, going through the different military evolutions as if each individual man had the eye of his particular lady friend or that of his commanding general upon him. :After forming in this style, they followed the cavalry very closely, who were not like the rebels— they never called on the infantry for support. We drove them back to Brandy station, and Buford;not satisfied with that, pushed them into Culpeper. My horse was trotting along among the different camp fires ltng after dark, when a very hearty, though irreverently-expressed, invitation smote my ear— nothing less than to halt and stop all night with the 72d Pennsylvania. I assented without a murmur, 'little expecting the denouement. The rebels werein our front and-right at this time. All expected a sharp encounter next day, yet none were sad. A NOVEL PRESENTATION: Major Roberts invited me into his tent, where Cap tain Cook, and many other officers of the regimen; were assembled. We had' !scarcely exchanged the complimente of the day, when. Captain Mcßride jerked from his vest posh et an enormous watch—a genuine railroad time-keeper—and began, with great volubility, to make a regular presentation ipeech. I turned a very attentive ear to the speaker, when I learned from his lips that the watch was to be a gift to the correspondent of The Press. Capt. Mcßride's speech was as good as many of those prepared for the preientatiOn of a magnificent sword to a Major eneral. The watch xdas captured from an officer in" the 49th Georgia, at Gettysburg. It was presented to me with a speech, as a token of esteem, and in the very face of the enemy. It is now in my care— would I not be recreant to the trust, did I let it run long without winding it up, or permit it to get un clean, end seldom send it to the jeweler for repairs I-very one with a proper understanding of the case would sayyea. _ GREGG'S PENNSyLVANIA CAVALRY-- THEIR FIGHT NEAR JEFFERSON. -- A few miles farther, and we met Colonel Gregg's command of cavalry. While we were marching, they had been listening to the muffled tramp of many thousand armed men, Tuesday afternoon the enemy's cavalry, under command of Wm. _P. H. Lee. came up with theca, near the little village of Jefferson. ,The I.3th and 4th Pennsylvania Cavalry were out on picket. All the men were rallied ; the. 4th took up a strong' position, and the ink held a" church-yard, in which was a neat:looking brick church ; around the cemetery was a high stonewall, The rebels rushed up the hill to take possession of this substantial-looking defence, when the men be longing to the 13th, seeing *eh. object, started for the same goal almost at the same instant. Our men got possession a few minutes in advance, and I think= the rebels who were so unfortunate as to charge up that hill will never forget the volley they received from our 150 carbines; a dozen or more were stretched out at the first discharge. WOKE UP ON THE MARCH. I wrapped Myself in my blanket and straightway adthessed myself to sleep, but sleep was shy and rejected my advances. About 11 o'clock that night . I was roughly shaken and informed that my horse was ready. I rubbed my partially unclosed eyelids, and saw that the camp fires had.grown dull, the men appeared- like so many blue devils dancing around the red fires.on the black. heath. Our orders were to march to the north side of the Rappahan neck, arid reach Fayetteville, near Sulphur Springs, by day:ight next morning. The weary, dreary ride I was compelled to take that night will neverbe forgotten. A heavy vapor settled down on men and mules—such a fog as only a Londoner Would feel at home in. The stars looked red and bloodshot, like the eyek of a debauche. I nodded on my horse, but the cold pinched my toes unmercifully and awoke me to sensibility and fatigue. We passed Realtors Station -amid a glare of burning camps—amid a salvo of burning cartridges—amid the heavy breath ings of the sleeping, and the blatant voices of the waking. The moving mass of men paused not— onward through the fire-light they went, and far into the black darkness that settled down upon the forest, biding with its envious mantle the varie gated tints on the autumnal leaves. Anon the gray streaks of dawn appeared in the east, broad stream ers stretched far down in the horizon, as if herald ing to the west the coming of the daygod. Fayette ville was reached at daylight. We paused long enough to manufacture a thick black colored liquid called coffee, then we resumed our toilsome march. Colonel Gregg's object in retaining possession of Jefferson so long, was to afford opportunity for the let Maine to return, without being cut off or cap tured. They had been sent on a reconnoissance the day before., But the enemy brought un his in fantry and our men were driven over the river, and many were captured. Next day the ist Maine re. turned safely. Cavalry, when dismounted and fight ing as skirmisherk are useless when infantry oppose them. The long-ranged Enfield rifle shoots the poor cavalry down at three hundred paces ; their carbines are useless against the rifle. Nothing daunted by his being driven over the Rappahannock, Gregg re crossed-the river and arrayed his squadrons once more ; but ere they could hear the stirring notes of the bugle commanding a charge, twenty pieces opened on them with a sepulchral boom—boom— boom. It would be folly to keep hismen there, so all returned to their old position. THE LOSSES.. Gregg lost 600 men in this affaii—more from cap tures than anything else. His two aids, Lieutenants Martin and Cuttler, were wounded; Major Young, 4th Pennsylvania, killed ; Lieut. Colonel Lucas, Ist New Jersey, killed; Capt. Hicks, Lieutenants Rogers and Eater, Ist New Jersey, wounded; Lieutenants Phelps and Daly, Bth Pennsylvania, wounded ; Sergeant Perry, 13th Pennsylvania, shot in both legs ; Otto Camernn, killed; William Elleyer, Company H, 13th Pennssylvania, killed;, Manuel Idell and Richard Leed, 13th Pennsylvania, wounded ; Surgeon _Loomis, Captain.H. Gregg, and Lieutenant Green were captured. The 4th and 13th hore the brunt of the fight, and fought heroically all day long. Thil was the state of affairs at Sulphur Springs when the '2d Corps reached Fayetteville. Our cavalry, emboldened by the presence of so much cavalry, pushed boldly , out in search of the enemy; but they were less rampant to-day than yesterday. We had barely time to. swallow;our coffee when the Ist division started off once more. Every one but me seemed happy. I was too sleepy and fa tigued to enjoy, anything : but sleep and rest. Both these blessings were denied me for the next two days. It was well I did not know this at the time. Upon reaching Auburn: we heard a discharge.of musketry. ATTACK' ON THE THIRD OORPS-CHARGE OF BIRNEY'S DIVISION. The 3d Corps, in passing* through this insignificant place, were attacked. General Birney, at the head of him, division, charged the impudent rebels and sent them clear out of sight, leaving ten of their dead behind them. A few hours later, When, the Philadelphia brigade came near the same place, the restless rebels were near again, and opened a bat tery upon this brigade. The brave fellows knew all about such things. They had 'been the rearguard foi Pope, when he came tearing along the'same route a year ago; and they - were not to' be. intimi dated by a single battery. There was a clatter of steel for a minute—then the bilyonetz were all fixed , . and each man holding his own on a level with his eye, charged upon the rebels with great fury. WARRENTON rurkTorion- We reached Warrenton Junction without further molestation. Your correimondent had thus far lin gered in 'the rear, and vibrated continually between the right anti left wings; but both flanks seemed to join : with the centre when they reached Warrenton June : lion. I very imprudently waited until almost every one had passed. A detachment of the 11th Pennsylvania, sieeing me in citizen's dream, arrested me andbrought me to Major Beveridge, who laughed at the mistake. I did not ; being constitutionally and conscientiously opposed to being captured or arrested. THE REBELS HARASSING OUR TRAINS. . The great trouble and cause of delay.was our long interminable wagon trains. As soon as day broke, upon us, the rebels endeavored to do the same. Bu- ford and Gregg opposed all their movements to-in terfere with the trains. From Catlett's to Bristew station they fought us all the way. At first they would come surging against our rear, then they would throw themielves with a mighty shook upon our right. They could neither move the first nor penetrate the latter. When we reached Bristow Sta tion they opened on us in a ferocious way. Then we knew it was their intention, at all hazards, to capture the train or break our flank, About noon , Gen. W ebb'sdivision of the 2d -Corps passed Broad run ; the 3d Corps was in the adv,ance. The rebels rushed a battery down an indistinct•looking road, and sent a few iron compliments to the rear of the '6th Corps, 'which killed four of the Pennsylvania 'Reserves, TIM B&TTLE AT BRISTOW. About thio time the 2d Corps emerged into view, and cken, Ws= forma them I.h.Phttle as rapidly. sr possible. The right of Gen. Webb's division rested on Broad run, theleft being stretched out in'a manner to prOtect our trains that were now being :madly dragged along. Gen. Caldwell faced his division near the railroad, while Hayes held the centre, As soon -as the enemy charged our right with their cavalry, their batteries opened on the first division an enfilading fire that rendered further paisage along the road 'they had been marching al" most-impossible. At that a alight commotion was perceptible, but it betrayed itself by no outbreak. Soon all became steady, and the men coolly . awaited the onslaught. Brown's, Arnold's, and Rickett's batteries played continually upon' the fee. Everytiute they opened on us they were compelled to withdqw and change the Position of their. pieces. At length"the rebels emerged from their cover in the woods; and formed in an open apace of ground about 1,400 yards from the Philadelphia brigade, which stood complacently,awalting their movements on this side the railroadiraok. They had not long to wait with one of - their peculiar yells theyatarted for Lieut. PdoOlellan!I battery. Oh I how the red flame etartedfrom these brass Napoleons—how the shrapnel' went tearingand crashing through the ad vancing line! But' they stayed not—soon they reached within t4O yards of the piece.. The command was given plainly—it could be heard along the entire line : steady boys-reserve your fire till you see every man.distinctly. Then came the exciting order —;'Now, boys, give it to them." The long advanc ing line quivered—swayed weakly to' right and left, and then 'every rebel fled by himself. The line now extended from Bristow to Manassas. For six miles the Amoke of the conflict could be seen ascending into the clear and spacious armament. Heath's rebel brigade was in front of the Ist Brigade, 2d. Di vision. They bad a battery of six pieces, which had given us much annoyance. INCIDENTS OF THE FIGHT-REBEL LOSSES. The 19th Maine, 15th 'Massachusetts,* and Ist Minnesota, charged on the double-quick, and cap• tured • live hundred men, the remnant of Heath'. North Carolinians, and dragged five of the field piece's . away after firing• all the ammunition near their Side at those who Were still retreating. One piece was disabled and, could not be brought off'. Two Stand of colors were ;taken; one was snatched from the color bearer's hands by a lad belonging to the Ist Minnesota.. Webb's and Rogers' divisions did almost all the : fighting, which continued unto the setting of the sun.- We held the Held, and the ene my's dead and wounded. All the former were de• cently'lnterred, and the wounded carefully attended to. Thigadier General Cook and Colonel Thompson, both North Carolinians, are reported slain. The battle• flags taken belonged to the 26th and 28th North Carolina Regiments. -- .r VALUE OF THE VICTORY. This - closed an important fight; important be cause it saved our trains, preserved our flanks in tact, and gave the other corps . an opPortunity of reaching Centreville Heights . If the enemy had got there first, it would have been a sad thing—a great mortification to the Potomac army. We are now in the fortifications of Bull Run. I fear the rebels will disappoint us, after all, and not dare at tack us here. If they do come over Cub Run, it will be a sorrowful time for them till they return. All things "seemed ready for a fight on Friday, but - a dienching rain came up so suddenly, and lasted so farinto the day, that both generals poatponed the engagement. I forgot to say that we did not have 200 ined in killed, wounded, and prisoners, in the battle of Kettle Run. -CAVALRY LOSSES. Our cavalry has suffered fearfully in this march, because the enemy mounted their infantry. I should not be surprised if we bad lost near 1,000 cavalry— ptincipally from captures. We got our trains through in safety, but several times came near losing them.: The withdrawal was admirably con ducted. B. CHARLESTON. Information given to the Enemy ,by Cer respondente—A Complaint from Admiral Dsailgren The following' -Circular was received, enclosed In a private letter to a gentleninn in this oity,"a few days since: - - • CIRCULAR. The following appeared in the ,Charleston filen cury orthe leth Septemher • ". A Yankee letter from off Charleston says : 4 En sign Benj. H. Porter, of the New Ironsides, who had been detailed for 'special service by Admiral Dahl gren, on account of the high character he has attained in the fleet, and hie daring bravery and prudence, performed a feat on Monday night, during the famous bombardment, that will insure him high commendation by the Admiral. The duty assigned to him was to ascertain the nature and character of the , obstructions ,acrose the harbor of Charleston, between Sumpter and Moultrie. He had been up in one of the Itonside's cutters, with a picked crew, for several- nights, - on this mission, and was pre vented from, accomplishing it by encountering the picket boats of the enemy. He was pursuing this in vsatigation when he saved the lives of 8 of the crew of the Wabash's captured boat. Oh Monday night he was scouting around Sumpter when the furious cannonade commenced. All eyes were centred on the forts, and the work they were doing. But En sign Porter taw that the opportunity for Ms work bad arrived_ The flashing: of the cannon from Sumpter and Gregg guided 'hid movements,: and he was enabled to reach the obstructions without being observed. He spent fully, half an hour on them, thoroughly investigating their construction, and. moved on toward the fleet in time to reach it at day light. He immediately rep - orted to the Admiral, wild declared himself highly gratified at the-in formation, declaring that he now knew all that he desired to know. The information is, of course, kept secret, but will be availed of by the Admiral in a few days,' "From subsequent events—or rather lack of events—it is to be inferred that all he desired to know' was, that his monitors would be blown higherthan a kite if he attempted to run in." Here are three persone, one of them in our midst, who voluntarily bestow information on the enemy of the, highest importance, and which teaches him how to defeat us in reaching Charleston. Of what consequence is it whether this is done in tentionally or notl There is probably no means upon which the enemy has so relied for information aa this insane propensi ty for making public the most valuable items. I deeply regret that it is not in my power to treat this evil as it merits; it ia unfortunately one of the . besetting sins of the day; but I call on every true man in this squadron to assist in bringing the , per petrators to condign punishment. `JOHN A.

ARMY OF THE FRONTIER, The Baxter Springs Massaore—Letter. from Major General Blunt—The Murder of Un armed Men and Surrendered Prisoners. BAXTXR SPRINGS,' 63 miles below Fort Scott, October 7,lBB3—lOo'alock Captains Tholen and Loring: You will probably have heard some of the par ticulars-of the affair here yesterday, I, before you re ceive this. The escort, Company 3d Wisconsin, and Company A, 14th Kansas, consisting of WO men, behaved disgracefully, and stampeded like a drove of frightened cattle. I did not anticipate any diffi culty until we got below this point. We arrived near this camp about 12 M., and halted on the hill almost in sight of the camp, and not more than dour hundred - yards distant, to wait for the escort and - wagons to close up.- The escort came up and dis mounted, to wait for, the train. which was but a shoit distance behind. At this time my attention was called to a body of men, about one hundred, advancing in line from. he timber of Spring river, on the left, which you will recollect is sot more than three or four hundred yards from the road. The left of the line was not more than two hundred yards from Lieutenant Pond's camp at the spring. They being nearly all dressed in Federal uniforms, I supposed them at first to be Lieutenant Pond's cavalry (two com panies) on service. At the same time my sus picions were aroused by some of their movements. I orderedthe wagons, which had come up, to the rear, and formed the escort in line, with their carbines unslung, while I advanced alone toward the party fronting us, to ascertain if they were rebels. I had advanced but a short distance when they opened a fire, at the same time firing was heard down in • Pond's camp. Turning around to give the order to the escort to fire, Idiscovered them all broken un and going over the prairie to the west at full speed. They did not even discharge the loaded oar inner. they had in their hands, except in a few cases. Htd the escort •stood their ground, as- soldiers should have Cone, they could have driven the enemy in ten minutes. I endeavored in vain, with the as slitance of Major Curtis, to halt and form a portion of them. When the escort stampeded, the enemy discovering it rushed on with a yell, followed by another line of about two hundred that emerged from the edge of- the timber. Being better mounted than our men, they soon closed in on them. The men of the escort were much scattered, and with them it was a run for life. After going a mile, I succeeded in halting fifteen men, including Lieut. Pierce, company A, 14th Kansas, who has done his duty well and nobly throughout. As soon as I got them in line, and commenced advancing on the pur suing enemy, they fled and fell back to the wood, when their whole command (six hundred) formed in line of battle. The balance of the escort that had escaped wereall out of sight in the advance. Efajor Curtis bad been seen to fall from his horse, which had been wounded, and stumbled in crossing a ditch. About one o'clock I sent Lieutenant Tappan (who had kept with me all the time) with four men to Fort Scott, while with the other nine I deter mined to remain until the fate of those that had fallen could be ascertained, and whether the post at the spring bad been captured, which I much feared was the case. As they fell back to the road, I followed them up over the ground we had come, to look for the wounded, but all with two or three exceptions (who had escaped accidentally) were killed, shot through the head. All the wounded had been murdered. I kept close to them and witnessed their plundering, the wagons. At one time they Made a dash at me with about 100 men, endeavoring to surround , me, but failed in their purpose. Al they moved off on the road leading south, I went down to the spring and to - mid them all Q. . . . _ Lieut. Pond, of the 3d Wisconsin, and also his command, are entitled to great credit for the manner they repulsed the enemy and defended the post. The colored soldiers fought with great gallantry. All of the wounded were shot through the head, and thus murdered. The band wagon was captured, and all the boys shot in the same way . after they were lhisoners. The iamb was the case with the team sters and Mart, my driver. O'Neill (artist for Frank Le slie) was killed with the band boys. Ail of the office clerks, except one, were killed; also, my or derly (Ely.) Major Henning Is with ,ine. But few of the escort who escaped have come in. I suppose they have gone to Fort Scott. The dehd are not all busied, but the number will not fall short of, seven ty.flve. The enemy numbered six hundred—Quan trell's and Coffey'a commands. They are evidently intending to go south of the Arkansas. I have scouts on the trail. Two have just come in, and re -port coming' up with them at the crossing of the Neosho river. Others are still following them up. Whether they will go directly south on the Fort Gibson road, or cross Grand river to Cowskin Prairie, j I cannot determine. When they came in, they crossed Spring river, close by Baxter. I have sent messengers to the Arkansas river, and if they succeed in getting through safe, our forces there will be put on the alert, and may intercept them. I am• now waiting the arrival of troops from Fort Scott. 111 get them (which is doubtful, as the 14th Kansas is not armed,) I will follow the hounds through the entire Southern Confederacy, as long as there is a prcapect of overtaking them. And I will have it well understood that any man of thisoommand who again breaks from the line and deserts his post, shall be shot on the spot; and there shall be no quarter to the motley bands of murderers, * * * I was fortunate in escaping, as in my efforts to halt and rally the men, I frequently got in the rear, and became considerably mixed up with the rebels, who did not fail to pay me their compliments. Re volver bullets fleW round my head thicksas hail, but not a scratch. I believe lam not to be killed by a rebel bullet. Yours, truly,- JAS. G. BLUNT. TUE STATES IN. REBELLION.

[From the Richmond Enguirer. ) We win great victories, but we'd° not improve them. The first successes of the battle are no sooner obtained than our army becomes a mob, and falls to cheering and exultations,'ln which the gene ral officers indecently participate. The repulse'of the enemy, instead of being the occasion of the su preme and most persistent efforts for his destruc tion, is the signal for relaxation, and the pleasant congratulations of success. When the French lines gave way at Waterloo, the British , troops raised loud cheers for their oommander, as he appeared•on the scene of the enemy's repulse. "No cheering now, men," replied Wellington ; "go forward and complete your victory." That untimely exultation, which seems td take possession 'of our army on every occasion of victo ry, and in Which the results of the victory easily escape, us, is to be attributed to want of rigor. It is this crying evil which makes the army of the Con federacy, in practice, scarcely more than a huge mi litia. There can be no military efficiency when the penalties of the military code are not enforced; when preachers and other sentimental persons in the Confederacy recommend an anti-discipline school that would pardon deserters, and pelt ram tory soldiers with sugar plums. We may win victories which will bear comparison with Marengo or Waterloo. As yet we have accom plished nothing hi this war which will bear such comparison, unless we may except the first Ma nassas and the Valley campaign of .) - aokson. In one instance a "grand army" was annihilated ; in the other, an army less numerous was stampeded by the vigor of pursuit. In both instances the work on hand was completed ; there,Were nO afterciapa ; no stories of a recruited enemy and renewed oppo sition ; of successes left half developed, or suddenly converted to disaster. These are, perhaps, the only two incidents of the war wherein the. results have been commensurate with the expenditure Of. means And blood made to obtain them. It is thus that they are to be esteemed great and decisive victories, and to take rank in history with examples of power and genius, and those military events which are , great for other reasons than the arithmetic of killed and wounded.

I , doubt if more labor has been expended upon the election in Penn- Sylvania than in this State. The success of Yellen `digham would have been far more to be deplored than would that of Woodward. A convicted traitor, banished fiom the limits of the United States; 'and now crouching under the caudal appendage of the British lion, the election of the former would have directly embarrassed the action of the Government It would have encouraged the rebels in arms' far more than the winning of an important battle. Every loyal man in Ohlo felt and knew this, and threw his whale efforts into the work. Those efforts werersuccessful, and the State is safe. Before the election numerous eatimatea were made as to the probabilities of the election. A few of the most hopeful estimated Brough's majorityon the home vote at 40,000. Others placed it' at 35,000; but did not feel certain of more than 30,000. There was much betting upon the resat, though not as much (as usual in important contests. The• bets were generally upon 26,000 or 30,000 on the home vote. Many Democrats offered to stake large num that Brough would not get 40,000 on the home vote. I cannot rind that any of these offers were accepted. This fact shows there were few of Brough'a friends who expected him to exceed 35,000 majority on the ballot of the State. When the returns began to arrive, everybody was taken by surprise. Two years ago Governor Tod was elected by a majority of 55,000. Last year the Democrats elected their candidate for Secretary of State by a majority of 5,000. It was thought that this majority would be overcome' and some 30,000 added on the other side, but no one was prepared for the real result. First came the returns from Cincinnati. Hamilton county; of which the Forkopolis is the most popu lous township, last year gave 1,500 majority for the Democratic ticket. Last night it was reported that Hamilton county had given three thousand majority the other way. A little later it was announced to be four thousand, and after the lapse of another half hour five thousand was announced. At 11 o'clock at night it was fixed at six thousand!! Immediately following came the returns from Co. lambus and Cleveland. ".Brough has made a tae• mendous gain over lastyear—don'tknowhowmueh, but too large to send by telegraph,” was the an nouncement from Cleveland. A little later came the figures-5,000 majority over Yallandigham, a gain of 2,400. Columbus was rolling up,a vote for Brough as large as it was unexpected. Then Sandusky, Xenia, Marietta, Steubenville, and so on through the second-rate cities. A great gain everywhere. BelOw I give the figures thus far received, and com pare them with the vote of last year. They will be found satisfactory to all loyal men : • 1862. 1463. Union. Dem. Union. Dem.

It give's, probably, a unanimous vote of one for Val landigham. Everybody had expected that this city, the home of the "illustrious exile," would give a large majo rity against Brough. It is one of the strongest Democratic localities in the State, and has never before failed to run up a heavy balance on the side of the conservative party. Whatever else might betide, the Democrats were certain of Dayton and of Montgomery county. As the voting progressed in the various wards, it became evident that Brough was carrying the odds largely in his favor.' The Re• publicans were as much elated as their opponents were chagrined. When the vote was'all in it gave, in round numbers, 200 majority for Brough. The Democratic majority last year was 600, showing a gain of 600. Pretty good for the home of the exile ! *Every loyal man felt encourage/ If Montgomery county could go for Brough, the State was ours by an overwhelming majority. The election in Cincinnati was a marvel of good order. The mayor had commanded that the saloons of every grade should be closed during the entire day, under heavy penalties. No wine, beer, whisky, or other stimulants could be obtaine/ Even back door retailing to privileged customers was prohi bited. =Mostof the merchants had suspended busi ness, and closed their establishments to give at least one day for the good of the country. More of the honest and respectable citizens staid at the polls and watched them carefully than had ever been known there before. The police, for once, were on the side of the Republicans, and did not feel inclined to proteet "Dimmycratic rows, designed for the exclusion of those• who wished to carry some other ticket than that which bore the name of the martyr. With no whisky it was as impossible for the Irish to provoke disturbances`as it would be for a steam boat to- ake headway up the Mlesissippi without fuel. From time immemorial there have been fights in certain wards in Cincinnati at every election. • Yesterday there was not one throughout the entire city. The effect of good order was visible in the re• sult of the dayos balloting.. I give th 4 figures in the Irish wards, and compare-them with those of last year :- MI MO MAYOR. GOYIM:MR. Union. Dem.

No vindication of the course of the Mayor, in closing coffee houses, could be more complete. Last evening in Cincinnati was one of intense ex citement. The Gazette had made arrangements for the reception of the returns, and had prepared to announce them by means of transparencies in the windows. A little after dark the crowd began to assemble, and by nine o'clock bad swelled to enor- MOUllproportions. As each result was announced it was greeted with loud and prolonged cheering, and when at length it was announced that Pennsylvania had else gone for the Union, the enthusiasm was in tense. Cheers for Brough, cheers for Curtin, and cheers for the army and the Union were given one after the other. At the same time a crowd had assembled' at the Enquirer office, half a square below, awaiting the Democratic returns. They were evidently unsatisfactory, as the Enquirer crowd dis played no symptoms o 1 delight. By half past ten o'clock it had almost entirely disappeared. It is well einown that Secretary Chase left Wash ington on Friday last, designing to come to his home to cast his vote for Mr. Brough. He arrived at Co lumbus at 2P. M., on Sunday, and remained there during the day. On Monday he passed through hereon his way to Cincinnati. On arriving there he spoke from the balcony of the Burnet House, and in the evening addressed a large assemblage at Mozart Hall. Monday was the evening for a grand torchlight procession, that was somewhat dampened by a heavy rain. The storm neither stopped the procession nor diminished the attendance at Mozart Hall. Mr. Chase was evidently a favorite with the people of Cincinnati, to judge by the enthusiasm with which he was received. During the .day he was mainly occupied with receiving the calla of his friends and former acquaintances in the city. It was his first visit since he went to Washington to become a member of Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet. After- the result of the election was known, the crowd moved from the Gazette office to the Burnet Houie, and called loudly for Mr. Chase and for Governor Morton, of Indiana, who was known to be there. Speeches were made by Mr. Chase and others, after which the crowd dispersed. Mr. Chase has gone to Indianapolis, at the urgent invitation of Governor Morton and others, and will return thence to Washington. His journey through the West has been a complete ovation, and the occasion of almost continual rounds of applause. A. ourious feattire of the election was the . part borne by Mr. Pugh, Demoeratic candidate for Lieu tenant Governor. It is•usually the part of modesty for a candidate to stay away from the polls and allow Others to labor for him. Mr. Pugh thought a candidate's duties were otherwise. He was at the polls in his own ward during the entire day, and was one of the aelf•constituted challengers or votes. fie may have prevented fraud, but he certainly lost the respect of friends and enemies.- - An immense Copperhead meeting was held here, on Saturday last. Not Lem titan thirty thougana Orisons were present. The immense attendanee caNed the loyal population to give up all hope of carrying the county, and added to the surprise of lad evening, when it wee announced that , we were really victoribts. There was the usual display of butter nut badges and emblems, and the usual vaporing about the Constitution, civil liberty, negro equality, and the like. Seymour, of Connecticut, and other prominent Copperheada were present. alter the meeting, they went to Columbhe, intending to re main there tfitafter the election was over. Front Columbus they ,were to proceed to Windsor to con gratulate Mr. Vallandigham. Very little congratu lation they will ha able to give him now. . , The vote in the army will be aleroat unanimous . for Brough. Those- regimenta now heard froingive on the average, one hundred for Bro Ugh tO tWO votes for Valiandighem. Two regiments have been announced that oast every vote for Brough. You gereeive how the army stands affected on the cue*. on, PIERNONT. The letter of General McClellan, supporting the disloyal candidate, has created a rather unexpected sensation among his New York friends. I have conversed with many of his warmest admirers and ataunchest upholders, since its publication, and one and all, they have expressed Borrow and chagrin at the act of stupendous folly. If the feelings of his friends here afford any index to those of him ad mirers in other portions of . the country, the cousin sion is irresistible , that henceforward his influence is at an end ; and that any hopes which he may in. dulge of political preferment will prove fallacious. A grand Union meeting at the Cooper Institute ' was announced for last evening, With speeches by Daniel S. Dickinson, Senator Wilson, and other prominent Unionists, The struggle between loya li st, and disloyalists will be desperate and prolonged, and both parties are buckling on their choicest armor. After Pennsylvania and Ohio have spoken ao earnestly, and unmistakably in favor of patriotism the continued defection of this -'State - would be all the more shameful; and the Unionists, appreciating this fact, are straining every nerve to secure success to their ticket, by all legitimate means at their com mand. In view of the great and unprecedented gain J in the late election at Newark, N. J., which is es, sentially a stronghold of Copperheadism, we* are more sanguine of proper results than we should be otherwise. Anew enrolment has been ordered in six of the congressional districts, and preparations are makiag for immediate action in the matter. The neiessity . arises from the factious objections which were made by Governor Seymour and his owners, to the fair ness of the first enrolment. It will be remembered that be claimed in effect, that the officials having it in charge had made false lists, sparing Republicaaa as much as possible, and throwing the great burden of the draft upon the Democrats. In consequenee, but fifty per cent. of the quotas was drawn, and tie DeW.enrolmen.t was promised. ' B2 911 1.300 .... 760 .... 1700 .... It is hardly presumable that the , Governor will care to throw further obstacles in the way of the conscription in thie State ; not only because the bloody sequences of his prior action would dam him from : a second attempt, but also because, having been thrown overboard by his party,•he will not care further to expose himself to the public (limp probation and contempt, by acting in their interest. FXPELLED FOR TREASON. 555 600 ... 1062 400 556 450 GSA .... 3503 At a meeting held on Thursday last by the truateei of Columbia College, the following preamble MA • resolutions were unanimously adopted: Whereas, Richard S. hlcCulloh, A. M. professor of mechanics and physics in this college, has aban doned hie post of duty and gone to the city of Rich mond, and allied himself to those now in rebellion against the Government of the United States : Therefore, Resolved, That the - said Richard S. McCulloh be, and he is-hereby, expelled from the professorship aforesaid of mechanics and physics, and that the - said professorship be, and is hereby, declared to be. - vacant. 376 6 - 66 .... 1700 3867 ... • 2100 Resalced, That the name of Richard S. IStioCtillok be stricken from the list of the professors of this col lege, and a note stating the fact and ground of his expulsion be appended to Ida name. This McCaliph had, heretofore, been exceedingly cautious in the expression of his treasonable senti ments, which fact accounts for his continuance in the professorship for so long a time. Had the extent of his self committal to the cause of the rebellion been generally understood, he would, doubtless, have been " barred out" by, the students, even had the Board eeen fit to ignore it for private reasons. He was a man of excellent mathematical attainments, and his lectures upon the differential calculus and the branch of logarithms will doubtlessly be highly relished in Richmond: The root of BicCulloh is of Irish extraction. r Quite a sensation was created in - the Surrogate Court, on Thursday last, by the production therein of certain portions of the skull and vertebra of the 'late Edwin P. Christy, the originator of negro min strelsy. Christy was formerly established at, the Mechanics' on Broadway with his troupe, and there made a large fortune. The novelty of Vat idea and the excellence of the band attracted the whole 'respectability of the city. Nightly, the ball was literally crowded to overfiowing. George Har t . rington, better known as George Christy, was a protege of his, whom he had picked up at New Or leans, and introduced in his troupe. After accumu lating. sufficient wealth, Christy retired to private. life, and the enjoyment of the results of his good fortune. Subsequently he became silent partner in a large wholesale dry-goods house. The immediate cause of his death was an injury which resulted from. -his own act. Laboring under a partial derangement of the intellect, he threw himself from 1a window of his dwelling, and was terribly crushed. Before death ensued he was merriest to a female who had been living with him at the time of the 'affair, and also made a will, leaving his property to her. It is now sought to set this will aside, on the ground that the testator was not of sound and disposing mind ; and the-line of proof involving certain sur gical testimony, the body of the unfortunate was . exhumed and the necessary bones brought into court. On Monday.evening the municipal banquet to the 'RlMilian officers is to be'given at the Astor House. This is to be foll Owed, in the' course of:is fortnight, , by a mercantile banquet at the Academy of Nude :- 'A third will probably be given by the 'shipbuilders, in, the early part, of November, provided that the plans, which have been already set on foot, are not abandoned 'for unforeseen-reasons. The RUBiItIIDE are to-visit Niagara, during the coming, week, in e company with eom of our own naval officers. No thing definite about'the aidermanic ball'has yet been ascertained. ' . 'A deeerter has been shot down' in 'our streets, under the following circumstances : - It appears a party of deserters, who had been forwarded to the ddpdt on Governor's Island from !New _London; ' were put in charge. of a detail from'a Connecticut : • regiment, to be delivered to the officer in command of that poet. These men numbered four.and.twen:' ty, while the detail consisted only of a sergeant and three men. They were fellowsbf a most desperare stamp, most of them being of ruffianly appear ance. Just as they reached the corner of West and Albany streets, a fellow named Killough broke the ranks, and dashed up Albany street. The locality was well suited for his purposes, as a few steps would take him among the old tumbledown shan ties and tenement houses, where, as in the White friars of London; in ancient times, any attempt at recapture would, prove futile, not only from the - fact that in some of the_ narrow:: and distorted passages of the buildings concealment could easily be had, but that the , peculiar population of the dis trict would not scruple to rise i r a rescue. As. Irtllough ran, the sergeant called upon him thrice to halt, and then, as a last resort, ordered one of the_ soldiers to fire. The aim proved fatal. This occur red early in the day, when the streets were crowded. Butler, the soldier who shot him, was arrested, but, exculpated from all blame, by the coroner's jury. A sudden dash up these streets has been a favorite method of escape with conscripts, substitutes, and apprehended deserters. From almost any of them, lying at right-angles with Broadway, a few moments of hot flight will enable the rascal to_ reach the haunts of the outrriers—the riot-makers, the ,4 revolv ing voters," and the most literal upholders of the Copperhead party, and such haunts are sanctuaries always opened for deserters and "bounty jumpers." The French drama is promised us by Mons. Juig net, at the little French Theatre, (opposite Niblo's). Juignet's seasons have been successful, as a general thing; being extensively patronized not only by fo-. reigners 'but also by amateurs in the language. - The season begins on October 29. The Italian opera still continues its career of un precedented success. Miss Kellogg's rentree, in Er nani, was greeted by the most brilliant audience of the season. . The principal dramatic sensation of the week has been the production of Hugo's "Ruy Bias," by Ed- Win Booth. This drama has for its plot eatery worn threadbare by constant use among story writers for the last century and a half. Ruy is a noble youth,. who; for the purpose of better approaching the prin cess with whom he is in love, becomes a veritable John Thomas, and, in the garb of a snobbish domes tic, proceeds to make love at all times, seasonable and unseasonable. Don Sallusti, the stereotyped vil lain, discovering how matters stand, endeavors to ef fect his ruin, and that of the princess,. but is slain at the proper time by Ruy, and the curtain drops upon what Slr.K. N. Pepper was wont to , call "much rc.ipy,' , This is all that Hugo has made of "Roy Blas." The author's name would be rather more appropriate to the piece, were it Nogo. Altogether it is a most dismal affair, "flat, stale, and unprontev. ble,” and can never be a favorite with a' metropoli ten audience. Mr. Booth closes his engagement at Winter Garden to-night.

THE ELECTIONS The news of the recent elections In Penneylvania and Ohio has caused much jubilation among loyal men and tamnistakable depression among the Copn perlitads. Aa far as regards the latter State; no dotißt was entertained of the . result and even tbil very , paper's - which, at the nomination of Vallandig ham, declared that his election was a certainty, as the daydrew rfth, endeavored ton clear tissnsselves . of all affiliattem with their own candidate, and did not hesitate to sneer at him as one already rejected. With PenneylVania, however, the case was essen tially different Woodward, without manliness la disloyalty-4f the term may be eo employed iwithont the courage to avow his dishonorable sentiment's openly, was, holding out false light's, and luring many to his rapport who would never, have - cast vote for him had they understood the real issues in. volved in the platform upon which he stood: This fact gave rise to doubt in the minds of many; and, although the Mass of our citizens were doubtless confident of Curtin's re-election, there were thou sands of patriotic hearts who felt a sense of relief when the glorious news was flashed over the•wirea, and the figures of the estimated majority , beamed be nignantly from the i bulletin boards.
