THE GREAT NAVAL EXPEDITION.
The naval forte collected at Fortress Mon
roe, and which sailed on Tuesday last, has
occupied a large ehare of.public attention.—
The details of its composition and equipments
are given at. full length in the daily papers,
and it. will not be many days until we hear of
its descent on some part of the Southern coast.
Com. S.F. DUPONT is the Flag Officer of the
Seat, and Oeit.I,t3.!IETI.MAN command& the land
forces. The. expedition eonsiele of nine men
of-war, three of them being steamers, and
sixteen gun-boats, with thirty-six transports.
These vessels :carry a r iforoe 'of 40,000 men,
well armed and officered.
It will be found that this expedition is, on a
scale mere vast than any thing of the kind
heretofore attempted, on this .continent, pt
least;
,and that, from the completehoss 9f its
outfit and the skill of the men to idiom the
command is entrusted, we may hope for a mo
wers blow at the insurgents in their weakest
spot. _ . . - -
Where the blow is to fall is known only to
the Government - and to the commander•in-
Wel of the expedition, It was unknown to
every one but General Sherman—the captains
et-the : different-ehips-sailing-with- sealed -or
orders,,which were not. to be opened till they
igotintb a certain - latitude and longtitude. -It
is probable ther•foro,lbat the insurgents will
know before, wo do where the landings are to
effeotod.

, The pea when attacked were at anchor in
side of the Southwest Pass. The ram Manes

' mond, knocking a held - it hei• quarter 'and
Stern, doing but little damage.
To avoid the flre•ehips the squadron imme
diately gdt 'under way and drifted down• the
river. The Richmond, Preble, and Viricenne t s
got ashore 'on the bar, the Nightingale also
went ashore, and while ashore were anaeked.,by
the rebels, bus - without doing any damage to tire•
trisects. or life in any respect. • But one shot
took effect, and that struck the Richmond on
the quarter. 7 They were beaten off by the
Vincennes with two guns, she-halting hove
overboard the rest of her armament; 'Kith het'
chains, anchors, Ste., to lighten her, as she
was very much exposed to the rebel fire:
The, squadron has no one killed or wounded.
The Richmond, Preble, anfi Vincennes were
towed off the next day by the ateaidShip
McClellan, which opportunely arrived. The
Nightingale remained ashore when the Mc-
Clellan left, and would probably be got off the
next day by aid of the steamers connected
with, the fleet.
THE FIGHT AT SANTA ROSA ISLAND
The fight on Santa Rosa Island occurred
early on the morning of the 9th ult.
The Zouave camp was situated about one
mile from Fort Pickens; and was so distributed
as to command all the_approaches Co the Fort,
and also to protect the batteries.
The rebel forces, fifteen hundred Strong,
embarked from the Pensacola 'Navy Yard' in ,-
three large steamers, and landed on the Is
land about four miles above the camp. It
was about 2.o'clock, A. M., scul l very dark.
The rebels rapidly formed their columns
and proceeded silently towards the Zouave
camp, hoping to -effect a , total surprise. In
this they were but partially successful. The
picket guard, stationed about six hundred
yards from the camp, discovered and fired
upon them. This gave the alarm and saved
the regiment from annihilation.
The 'attack of the enemy's columns was
simultaneous, and volley after volley was
aimed upon the volunteers. They were forced
to fall back, leaving their camp in the hands
of the rebels, which they immediately com
menced burning.
Fort Pickens was by this time thoroughly
4 .,
*roused, and three companies of re regulars
came to Wilson's assistance., It was n our
turn, and the rebels commenced retreat ng to
their boats, closely followed by the regulars
and a small number of volunteers, keeping up
a destructive fire Upon them, , killing, and
wounding a large number.
The rebels finally succeeded in reaching
their boats, but were not permitted to depart
so easily. Their steamers were about five
hundred yards from the beach, and our men
poured volley upon volley into the crowded
mass, and, by the shouts.and utter confusion
of the enemy, it was clearly evident that we
had obtained ample satisfaction for the insults
to our flag.
The regular soldiers behaved nobly, and
great credit is due to Capt Robertson and
Hilt, and Lieuts.. Seely and Taylor, for the
admirable coolness-they displayed in ma
ncouvring their respective commands.
The Sixth Regiment lost ten killed, sixteen
wounded, and nine prisoners ; the regulars
lost four killed, twenty wounded,• and ten
prisoners. The rebels loot, by their own
statement, three hundred and fifty killed,
wounded and missing. We took thirty-five
prisoners, including three doctors, who were
released.

On Saturday last, Gon. KICLLIY, attacked
Romney, Va., and gained a Signal victory.—
The following dispatch was received by Lieut.
Gen. Scott:
"In obedience .to your orders, I moved on
this place . at 12 ,o'clock last night, attacked
the enemy at ..8...0'0100k this . afternoon, and
drove in their outposts, and after a brilliant
action of two hours completely routed them,
taking all their cannon and much of their
damp equipage and many prisoners. Our
loss is but trifling, but cannot say to what
extent.
The following dispatch from Gen Fnmapar,
gives an account of a gallant exploit by his
body- guard under Major Seagoyne:

• Telegraphic communication with California
is now complete, and messages of congratula
tion have been received from San Francisco,
Sacramento and Stockton to New York, Phila
delphia, and other cities on the Atlantic. The
Philadelphia North American contains the first
telegraphic news from the Pacific side:
San Franctaco, Oct. 26.—The announcement
has just been made of the completion of the
last link in the overland telegraph. The Pa
cifie to the Atlantic sends greeting, and may
both oceans be dry before a foot of all the land
that lies between them shall belong to any
any other than our united country.
Nothing of importrnce has transpired in
California during tho past week.
The steamer-Omaha sailed on the 21st inst.,
eariying $1,000,000 in treasure, $870,000 be
ing for New York. Among the passengers

Calhoun Benham, loft somewhat quietly in
the same steamer, their names having been
omitted from publication in the passenger list.
Four hundred and forty regular troops and
ten thousand stand of arms were forwarded
in the same steamer.
The schooner Neva sailed for Japan on tho
23d, being no longer suspected of privateering
intentions.
The steamer Sonora from Panama 'arrived
at San 1 4 n:unisex, on the 26th.
MUST HELP UNCLE SAM FIRST.-A farm
er inWia - c - iitithin Fad a son - fits - 6 joined the Bth
Regiment of that State without his father's
consent. Several letters were written by the
father to the son, while the Regiment were
in quarters at Camp Randall, for the pur
pose of persuading him to,--return.—At last
he wrote him he must come.—that he halga
large amount of threshing to do—that be
could not afford to hire help, if it were to
be had, which was hardly possible, owing to
the number of enlistments—and that••••he
must return home and help him, even if he
enlisted again afterward. The young man
replied:
'DEAR PATRER :-I can't gd home at
present. I should be very glad to help you,
but Uncle Sam has got a mighty sight big•
ger job of threshing on hand than you have'
and I'm bound to see him out of the woods
first."
THE CERTIFICATE OF THE LEGION OF
Ilowon.—The long promised scroll that is to
be distributed to the soldiers of the present
campaign, will goon be ready for distribution.
One will be given to each of the soldiers,
whether in the regular service, volunteers,
either for the war or the three moriths. The
one adopted by Secretary Seward, is new be
ing prepared in Albany. It is about twenty
inches by thirty; a handsome lithograph of
an eagle with outstretched , wings, over which
is, in a circular line, the imatenoe, "LEGION
OP FION011," beneath it, "E PLVRIBUS thrum,"
and WASHINGTON.
In the centre of the eagle is the Goddess of
Liberty and the Goddess of Justice, with joined
hands, seated upon a fiery dragon, with their
heels upon its head, the Goddess of Liberty
waving an American flag; by the aide of the
Goddess of Justice lies a soimetar, and in her
left hand is a ,bundle of fagots; from the cen
tre of which one is projecting, on the end of
which is a tomahawk. In a 'semi•cirole from
one side to the other of the eagle, are the mot.-
toes of all the States. The right foot of the
eagle clasps an olive branch, and the left a
bundle of arrows. Beneath the engravhig it
reads:
t 1 - has been enrolled as a--
in tfin . forces otttio - Unitad - Statesi - for
the defence of the. Constitution and the main

This is thOn signed by the President and hie

Any thing emanating from Dr. Duffield, is

In presenting the flag be said :

your admired - regiment, this fiag—the banner
of, our , national distinction and fame. It is
the heraldrio - symbol - of : all we value and cher

Aur national independence, giving - notice of
the progress and prosperity, the honor and
happiness, the civil freedom and religious lib
erty of the PEOPLE of these United States. Its
chaste and simple; emblems, though nearly
triplicated since ionns first unfurled, are iden

cheered the hearts of our common ancestors.

A SAD ACCIDENT.—OD Tuesday of
last week while two men, named PArnrcs.
BRANNON and JOHN Bomnnuan, were engaged
in sinking a shaft in the ore-bank, at Big
Pond Furnace, near Shippensburg, the em
bankment of earth gave way burying both of
the men beneath it. When they were taken
out of the bank BRANNON was entirely dead,
and the other, though still living, is seriously
injured.
THE STEREOSCOPTON. — TWO exhibi
tions of the Stereoscopton were given last
week at Itheem's Hall, at which over one
hundred views were exhibited of celebrated
localities in the United States, Eprope and
Asia, with a truthfulness to 'nature that was
as astonishing as it was pleasing. Irt point
of audiences, however, both exhibitions were
entire failures. Had it been a juvenile con
cert, or a "nigger show," the effect might
have been different.
KNITTING versus NETTING.—The la
dies are determined if they can't fight they
will knit; consequently, fancy betting and
crochetting are at a. discount in private cir
cles. Grey "socks," and huge "comforters"
for the soldiers, have taken the place of
"clouds," and are daily sent off to the army
at various points. Let us hope that the "sock"
business will prove more beneficial than the
havolocks.
KEMMERER'S JUVENILE CONCERT.—
Mr. Kemmerer, who has organized a singing
class of over one hundred children, from the
schools, gavo his first concert at Rheem's
Hall on Wednesday evening. The audience
was quite large, and expressed themselves
much gratified with the manner in which the
little folks acquitted themselves. The selec
tions were excellent, many of them quite hu
morous, and the dramatic effect with which
some of them 'were iiiiiffered, was highly
creditable to the tact and skill of Mr. Kem
merer, who, in the short space of one week,
was able to effect so much. The second con
cert will be given this evening at the same
place, and we advise all who wish to spend a
pleasant hour to go to it.
RUDE Bova—We can make every al
lowance for the exhuberant spirits of youth,
ankdelight to revive the osaociatioin of our
own earlier years by furthering their sports
and pastimes; but when we see vicious, info
lentCand ignorant -boys, 'Who are old enough
to know better, forcing their way into public
Ishibitione for the avowed purpose of annoy
ing respectable audiences with disgusting,
beastly conduct, we think it is time for the
civil authorities to interfere, and by a few
timely examples, protect our citizens from
such a nuisance, and the boys themselves, if
possible, from further degradation. It is an
old and true saying, that " boys will be boys,"
and because it is true, is the very reason why
they should be controlled. If parental au
thority, or their own sense of decency, is in
sufficient to restrain them, they should be
taught the lesson by a severer method.
PATRIOTIC.—The ladies of Carlisle and
the surrounding country are determined not
to be behind in their efforts to secure the
comfort of our brave volunteers during the
coming winter. They have been collecting
blankets and knitting woolen socks, a large
box of which was packed up at A. L. Spoil-
Bier's office and sent to Quarter Master Gen.

A CHAPTER ON DgEss.—The rich im
portations from Europe, of winter novelties
for the fashionable world, fully demonstrate,
that nowithetanding the war, the ladies are
not restricted in their love for gay And expen
sive outfits, if they have the money to pay for
_ .
them.
Prominent among the superb novelties im
ported is a velvet evening dress for the lady
of the White House, of the magnificent shade
known as sublime rose. The skirt is deeply
en traine, and laid in plies of immense plaits,
but not gored. The corsage - is low, pointed,
and trimmed with folds, and a stomacher of
pointed lace. The sleeves, a Eugenie, are to
be clasped with diamond aigrettes. The
coiffure to be worn with' it consists of a long
barbes of costly white point, the wreath of
short red flowers, and a long rosy plume,
tipped with marabout, fastened with a dia
mond aigrette over the forehead.
The new style of winter bonnets are said to
present a new and extremely elegant combina
tion,. consisting of an extreme front of thin
transparent lieu, or crape,, united to the rich
dark velvet which forms the body of the cha
peau. The or nam cuts are very rich, long
barbe-like plumes, mounted with a tuft of the
same feathers, or scarfs, and barbes of lace,
festooned by a moisture of lace, and moss rose
in buds, or the blood-red camelia.
Netted woolen under-sleeves aro made in
great variety, but there is only a style of white
puffed zephyr, with intersecting colored stripes
which are at all fit to wear, and those only
when they are desirable for warmth. Noth
ing.but the purity and delicitcy of lace and
cambric should be permitted to come between
the,dress and the skin.
Mariposas and Sontags shterettabe redun•
.daridy-of-color-which the _florid .taste. of the
season demand, and are so attractive as to
elicit many admiring ohs ! and ahs I from im
pressive young ladies, and give rise to innu
merable expeditions, the object of which is
Magenta and Solferino worsteds, which are
sold in every variety of shade, purple to dark
brown, according to the exigencies of the shop
keepers.
A very great improvement has appeared in
hooped skirts of a eecent date, of which lady
readers will be glad to be informed. It con
sists of a greatly improved number of stand
ards, which are placed close together around
the bottom of the skirt so thickly that the heel
cannot catch in them, and adding much to the
general strength and durability. This idea
originated with a woman of course. Hooped
skirts have reached perfection now, compared
with the first clumsy spkimens which made
their appearance six or seven years ago. The
number of standards amount to one hundred
and twenty-eight in some instances—of course
of the lightest and most highly prepared ma
terial, but which possess none of the brittle
quality which formerly rendered steel springs
or " standards" dangerous. The shape is
also greatly improved. The bulk at the top
has given piece to a narrow eiruntforence
which almost tapers to the waist, and extends
out in a general flow to the bottom , of the skirt,
slightly deepening at toe, hack so as to_ pep
port the greater length of the dress at that
point.
Zouave jackets reappear as the season ad
vances, and promise to be as much in vogue
as over. They are, however, quite different
in style. The skirt part is.almost wholly dis
pensed with, leaving aaort of Greek veste loose,
but out almost straight around the waist, ex
cepting where it deepens into a short point
before and behind. A twitted iineit-combrio
undershirt is indispensable, finished with a
small linen collar, narrow,tandifig
A wide silk sash is tied round the waist on
one side, and gives a Greek-Turco effect to
the costume. A coat-sleeim ornamented with
buttons and braid is the correct style with this
jacket, but many prefer one which will display
an undersleeve.

dent occurred on Tuesday afternoon on the
Northern Central Railway which resulted in
the death of two passengers, and the serious

Mr The seoeSsMuists are in the habit of
swing that_ FranoisS. Key, unifier of the

if living. The Baltimore American says:
To secessionists in Maryland:litho are proud
of the name of Francis S. Key, as a relative
or fellow-citizen, we would suggest for their
reflection the toast proposed by him at a po
litical meeting, in which he had been alluded
to "as worthy of being honored, wherever ge
nius is admired or liberty cherished, as the
author of the Star Spangled Banner ' " His
own toast was, " The defenders of the Star
Spangled Banner—what they would not strike
to a foe, they will never surrender to traitors."
