•We. have.; thanks to thp.aequlsitive and enterpri

num; Flora MacFHmsey and Gushallna .Onish.lt
need' no longer languish for: models of fresh ele
gance, not -to: say of/ “deportment.” A. singular
narrative of hardy adventure is connooted with the.
consummation-of this enterprise. The statement
bore given is compiled from; the original letters of
those therewith; connected. The I. and I.- B. had,
according to his own statement, suffered with
11 Circassian on the brain 'for ten years,” and, in
order to relieve himself from the abnormal pressure
of humanity on the skull, set himself vigorously to
wor k. A Turk, who was-at the Bible-house in this
city studying.as draughtsman, was engaged with
tho intention of educating 'him, if possible, to
the business of respectably smuggling away
from the dominions of the Bashaws .of nine
or- moire, tails one or more beauties. For
some--/reason, the plan was subsequently
abandoned.. The I. -and I. U. then applied to a
well-known! Turkish gentleman in - tilts city, whose
name is not Smith ; but who is quite, as well-known,
from his, foremost position as a lecturer upon and 1L
lustrator of Eastern habits, as Smith himself could
be for any nominal originality or. legitimacy, .- -This
gentleman offerodto undertake pro
vided he were credlteddwitli $65,000;-which offer
the I; : and : I. B.—failing to observe It 'in- that "or
any . light-hTncontlhehtiy 'declined to
accept/' Thus stood matters when an attacks of the
American consulate at Larnaoa, in the Island of
Cyprus; in the course of his correspondence with, the
NeW York' 'Observer, furnished an account of tho
cornlgerous orhorned woman, resident at that place.
The showman at once .directed. Kir. John Green
wood, Jr., to prooeed to Cyprus, and, if he. thought
proper, to secure; her for exhibition ; empowering
him'at'the sumo to undef take a' 1 • ’ • ■ •

Some-time In-May last Mr. Greenwoodset Ball.
AtLarnaca hemet with the cornigerous being, and
as the newspapers hare generally copied the Ob- •
server’s ylew: of ithis lusus nature, It may not be 5
amiss hero to Insert the more practical view of a?
trained showman. “ Instead of four cornicles and
one large horn,”; he /says* she has one-excrescence;
of .the consistency, of hard skin hanging.from the:
side of;her headland.''la;length 'and Vuttmefer about;
equal in site to your little-finger. Besides this, she'
has two wens or'tumors about the site of- a hickory
nut'on the top pf’hor head.” ; Thus much for Got-;.
nlger. V;' - l
At Smyrna, as-well as at Larnaoa, Mr. Green-;
wood was given to understand that Circassian girls
were uncommonly plentiful at Constantinople, and
could be readily- procured at from $300; to $400“
apiece, These /statements / were- - partially true,
owing to the. reoent expulsion' ‘ of' the Clr-,
oassians from their hatiye mpuntalns by the /Rus
sians. They came trooping into Constantinople by

GINEKAL SHIBIDAJf’S ARMY,
The Greßt Cavalry Fight in the Valley—
Account of the Rebel - R6nt—The Cap
ture 8 made—Hrilliant Actions ofour
Cavalry."
A special correspondent of the New York Tribune
writes as follows from near Strasburg, Va., Oet. 10:
The rebel cavalry force, sent as a kind of corpj .
of observation down the Valley in pursuit of Sheri
dan; was ascertained.to be under command of Major
General Lomax, with: Brigadier Generals Rosser
and Bradley Johnson-as subordinate commanders.
General Lomax marched through Woodstock oh
Saturday with flying-colors, and his men confident
and boastful of what ..they were going to do to the ■
Yanks, .whom they feigned to believe in full retreat.
• The fight began about 10 o’clock A. M.on Sun
day, at the base of Round Top, three mllea from*
.Strasburg. The enemy occupied a position aoross -
. the Valley. Bradley Johnson held the pike,in which
was posted the-Baltimore battery. . Gen. Rosser oc
cupied the backroad over toward the North Moun
tain, and awaited ourrattack, using their batteries
with considerable Industry, .but with, little .effect
upon our lines. ; • • ,
Geo. Torbert sent Gen. Custer, with, his brigade,
to confront Rosser on the ,,0b1. -Lo well <

".part of the line, there" wa®toally

fired an ay ■ all their ammunition; when our men
came charging upon them with" a yell." Their men
broke, and failed to support the Battery) and the
: gunners followed suit, leaving the battery of five
pieces in our hands. « •'
On the right, Ouster charged them about: the
same time, oapturfng three' guns, With, caissons,
wagons, forges, ambulances, &o. The remainder of
the battle was;a flight and a chase,’ In which the
enemy were being continually overhauled and cap.:
tured singly, In pairs, and by squads'.
All efforts ofthe rebel officers to'rally the men
falled Vthey broke for the mountains right and left,
andfinally became so scattered that there was no
longer any apparently organized body to pursue.
"We captured the wagon train,’ some nine ambu
lances, ammunition-wagons, - and finally three more
guns, making eleven in all during this day’s opera
rations, and a total of thirty- seven guns during
this campaign in the Valley. ?■- f - - - - : .
A large number of prisoners was also taken—
probably not far from three hundred.- Gen. Tor
bet’s-forees continued the pursaifc after the -rebels
nearly to New Market, at which time there was no
longer any visible force to follow, and the chase
was abandoned. ' ■ ’
General Sheridan determined, in his ownexpres-.
sive words, to whip this body of rebel cavalry, or
get whipped, and it was done. The army, during.
the whole forenoon, has been jubilant over the vic
tory,-and cheer upon cheerhas-been heard around,
the line, as the good news was published to them.
The rebels were feeding their horses, ■in -part,
upon pressed hay, brought- down from Staunton,;
the only place where there was any-left. Ten thou
sand head ot animals -have- been collected and
driven out ofthe Luray and-Shetandoah. Valleys.
There is notbing lelt on which the paople can sub-,
sist, muehlless a large rebel'forcs in this valley.
The; destruction, however,-.for-the present, has
been stayed rat Strasburg, rand circumstances
governing the : future movements of the army will.
probably determine whether , the food, and forage,
will be destroyed between this and- Harper’s Ferry.
The weatherakunusually cold for. the season. The
army is in avrosition to resist-any attaok from aay
quarter or in wfifftever force. At present Gen; Sheri
dan’s forces remaihoneamped within a few miles of
Strasburg. '■
BLOODY GUERILLA ATTACK ON AN ABMY MAIL:
GTTABD NEAR WINCHESTER—FEROCITY OF THE
REBEL THIEVES.
Another cox respondent, writing from Markins
burg, Va., on the 12fch Inst ,-says:.
I havqiust arrived at this place from Sheridan’s
army, alter-witnessing one of the-bloodiest little
attacksiof guerillas on record, .which occurred yes

Colonel'C.W. Tolies, OMefQ.uartermastor at Mar
tlnsburg, and Surgeon Ohlstraoher, Medical In-,
spect'or on General.Sheridan’s.Staff, attended by a :
guard of cavalry of twenty-five men, commanded by'
a lieutenant, , and accompanied, by an ambulance
containing a latge,mail, left Winchester yesterday
morning early for Sheridan’s headquarters, then at
Cedar creek, only, fifteen miles distant. They/had
proceeded-seven miles, and had-reacheda point one’
mile south of Newton, when-they were surprised by
about fifty guerrillas, said .to belong to White’s
troop of •Mosby’s gang of- - outlaws. The? rebels
dashed boldly out of-a piece of woods on the loft Of
the pikey and, Istriking-the road*ehlnd ogr party,
and having .v.ery.superlor hprsesj.charged oyer and
through them,; breaking and .scattering them In,
every dlrebtlon.' Our men,, surprised and hanic
stricken,. and seeing themselves outnum
bered, made but little defence, and the officers
were soon’left, at" the mercy of the cut-throats.
Colonel Tolies was shot in the back, of the head,
and. is thought to he - mortally - wounded. The
surgeonwas shot -In* the -left side, just below, the
heart, aid; as he says,-after he had surrendered and
delivered up his arms. He is since reported to be
deaa;>*The-lleutenant (name unknown) was shot'
through the body, and was also said to be .past re

one of them, named Jordan, of the 17th Pennsyl

one dead rebel waslffiind upon the field. Theambu
lance was capturedwith the mail, and successfully
run’off toward the Shenandoah; river, beyond our.
means of pursuit, and the number- of prisoners taken
withit is yet nnknown. •’
V"I had been up the valley but two days before, and;
-was-nowreturning as a—volunteer courier, with,the:
advance guard of- a train -coming down for supplies.
This advance was composed mostly of a largo lot of
dlsabled and broken-down cavalry, who were going*
to. the rear to turn in' their -unserviceable'arms and
horses, and were commanded by Captain Schovllle,-
of the Bth New York Cavalry, and Lieut. Dwyer, of
the 3d New Jersey. As we rose to the top .of a Mil,
we heard.firing at the front, and/dashing forward,
soon met our men in full retreat, closely followed by
and intermingled with the. rebels, many of whom
were dressed the Same as.onr men, making italmost
Impossible to distinguish between the two. The rebels,
however, quickly separated themeelyes, and.turned
to retreat at the appearance of our force, and though
we instantly charged aften them, with vigor, the -;
superior ‘fleetness of their horses' enabled them .to'
escape with but little damage. And now. came the
safOe'sh Ecene of all. The ruffians who had shot
our' Officers had dropped out of the charge, dis-.
mounted: and were" now stripplngthe clothing and
-valuables from their-persona under our. very eyes. -
Each of our wounded men lost his. money- and

it Chicago, on Monday, a meeting: of grain dealers
and commission merchants was held to consider the tax
of one-tenth of one percent, on the gross sales of grain.
The tax .was generally considered a grievance, and the
statement was mads that it would exceed the total profit
on the annual transactions, which are not transfers in
the great majority of cases. : , ,
Thewholesale clothing trade sympathizes with the
depression of the trade in dry goods. Easiness is ex
ceedingly dull, owing in part to the causes which affect
trade'generally, and partly to the unwillingness of
country dealers to lay in heavy- stocks in, the existing
state of things. The stock of goods on hand is very
large, and the dull sales have induced one of the largest :
houses to open their warerooms, filled with half a mil
lion worth of goods, for a retail price, ■

PHILADELPHIA DRY GOODS MARKET. —There
is a better feeling in the market lowing to the ad
vance in gold, but the sales are in a email; way only,
-most of the outside lots have been disposed'-of, and.there
is rather more inquiry from the county trade'. Thelead
ing articles of Cotton and Woolen manufacture are
held for higher prices.
, The New York, 2Vfisane/;Oct u l4lb, says:
/"The ./wholesale/clothing. irade sympathizes with

exceedingly dull, owing in part to the causes which
