h his purpose, he was forced to run himself into the mountains. The State of Connecticut has now in camp over three thousand infantry soldiers, three hundred and twenty-five cavalry, and one hundred and fifty-six artillery. The Government has in service two regiments of lancers, two composed entirely of lumbermen, one of miners, one of railroad men, one of miners, one of railroad men, one of engineers and bridge makers, and one of mechanics. The United States armed transport McClellan, Capt. Gray, leaves the foot of Canal street this morning, under sealed orders.--This is one of the vessels belonging to the Government which has the right man, whose ship is always in the right place at the right time. The Port Surveyor has seized the ship Kate Dyer, two sixteenths of which are owned by James Philip, of New Orleans. The governor of Massachusetts has appointed November 21 to be observed as a day of thanksgiving. It is the anniversary of the signing of the origin

gans that no effort shall be wanting to lower the present price of bread. It is its apprehensions on this head that renders it so anxious about the cotton supply, the assurance of which it sees only in a recognition of the rebel States. A complete understanding exists between England and France on the subject, and any disaster to the Union army will be followed instanter by an acknowledgement of the South. Nay, I am by no means sure that even a victory and rout under the auspices of General McClellan would alter the matter. The Orleans Princes have caused a great outcry in Europe. The English press cannot forgive them for siding with the Northern States in the present struggle. Such an example, it is felt, will have a great moral effect on all Europe; and the secret, the underhanded, the vile enemies of our glorious country spit out their venom at those noble Princes — those unfortunate young men, deserving of praise and commendation, instead of the abuse that is showered up

y expected the virtual evacuation of our camps in that quarter. It will have been observed by the public that the attack opposite Columbus, Kentucky, and the burning of the bridges over the Holston, in East Tennessee, have been simultaneous with the landing at Port Royal. We shall doubtless hear of demonstrations in Kentucky and in Western Virginia, when we receive the news of the same date. So, also, was the grand attack before Centreville to have come off about the same time. The defeat at Leesburg, however, changed General McClellan's plans. It is now said that, acting upon the maxim, discretion is the better part of valor, he has postponed his own grand movement until the expected withdrawal of Georgians and South Carolinians from Centreville shall put his success beyond peradventure. So far no grand results from the simultaneous assault all around the horizon have been accomplished, and the adage is verified. "The best laid plans of men and mice Gang a t ag a g."

ade to check the progress of the invader, the boastful prediction of the Northern journals will be fulfilled — namely, that in a few weeks the theatre of the war would be transferred from Kentucky to East Tennessee. Cumberland Gap, we believe, is well fortified, and can be defended against any force that can be brought against it. The other gaps, however, seem to have been neglected, and yesterday we had rumors that a large Lincoln force was approaching Jamestown, Sentries county, and that McClellan's Cavalry Battalion had fallen back from that point. If they make their entrance there, it is probable their aim will be the bridge at Loudon, the destruction of which would be a most calamitous blow to us. Rockingham items. The Rockingham Register, of the 8th, furnishes the following items: At the Shenandoah Iron Works, owned by Henry Forrer, they are engaged on a contract with the Government, and are turning out cannon shot of all kinds by the ton.
