liberty of the yard as his health seemed to demand fresh air and sunlight. Taking advantage of the kindness shown him, he escaped the vigilance of the guard and struck for the woods. In all probability he will be brought back to-night. Two Californians are now in the Provost-Marshal's office, brought in by our cavalry pickets. I have conversed with one of them, Mr. J. F. Welsh, of Auburn, California. The two left San Francisco on the 11th of September, and arrived in New York on the 4th of this month. They then proceeded to Washington with the intention of getting to Richmond. The following is a copy of the forged pass which enabled them to cross the river: "Headquarters, Oct. 13th, 1861. "Pass Mr. Glass across bridge and ferries to Gen. King's brigade on important business. "By order of Gen. King. "R. Chandler, A. A. Gen'l." With this they managed to pass the pickets, and went to Ball's house. Then watching an opportunity, the two struck into the

Runaway. --Ranaway from the Coal Mines, in Orange county, on the 15th of this month, my boy, Frederick. Said boy is a bright mulatto, stout built, about 21 years of age; has a downward look when spoken to; about 5 feet 6 inches high. I will give a reward of $25 for the securing of him in Lumpkin's Jail, so that I get him again. George W. Parker, se 26--1m* Isle of Wight co., Va.,

rom pressing, their goods on the market until prices rise in proportion to the value of the raw material. The city article in the London Times attributes the continued decline in the funds to the feeling and disquiet of the prospects of the operatives in Manchester the coming winter, under the influence which the parting suspension of the cotton trade will have upon their revenues. London funds continued to droop under considerable realizations. Consols declined one-fourth. On the 25th, the discount market showed increasing ease. The general rates showed 3 per cent., but choice bills brought 2¾. Liverpool, Sept. 25.--The sales of cotton at Liverpool for three days ending Wednesday were 85,000 bales. The market has been excited; prices ¼d. higher than on Friday. The sales to speculators and exporters were 45,000 bales. The market closed with an upward tendency. The advices from Manchester were favorable, and prices for all goods were slightly higher, though sales

Latest from Europe. American affairs — the Cotton question. Farther Point, Oct. 8. --The steamer Norwegian has arrived. She left Liverpool on the 26th, and brings telegraphic dates from Liverpool, via Londonderry, to the 27th of September. The Paris Patric denies, but English journals reassert, that France and Spain intend to interfere in the affair of Mexico. The London Times says the intervention is with the full concurrence of the American Government. The issue of notices for the adoption on short time in working hours in the Lancaster Mills is becoming more general. Under these circumstances, spinners and manufacturers are showing an increased confidence, and abstain from pressing, their goods on the market until prices rise in proportion to the value of the raw material.

ount are manifold and inconceivable. Its Special Agent, Gen. Ashmere, recently caused the arrest of a post-office clerk in Augusta, Ga., charged with rubbing the mails, and he is now in custody to answer for the essence. A postmaster in Alabama certifies that the contractor on route No. 115 performed the regular mail service during the month of June last, whilst the postmaster at the other terminus of the route, in the same State, writes that service has been shadowed thereon since the middle of January to about the 30th of June--no letters having been received at or transmitted from his office during that period. Yet the contractor wants his "pay for services" which he did not perform. It will thus be seen that many obstacles have to be overcome, for which time and patience are indispensable. Although investigation will lead to the exposure of dishonesty and trickery, and to that extent an advance will be made towards the establishment of a regular and efficient postal system.

e can speak of with anything like positive assurance. When he was arrested he said that he had been a resident of this city for three years, and was well known to be a loyal Southerner. If this be true he can easily prove it, we suppose. Re-issue of the Martinsburg (Va.) Republican. The Hessians having suddenly evacuated Martinsburg, the editor of the Republican resumes his duties, after an interval of four months, and says: This is the first issue of our paper since the 15th of June last. All the hands of the office prior to that time were in the army of the Southern Confederacy, with the exception of one apprentice, who had not attained the age to capacitate him for military duty. Being the only hand we have yet been able to obtain, we need make no apology for the reduced size and change in the appearance of our paper other than to state some of the facts which have led to this result. On the occupation of Martinsburg by the Hessian force of General Patterson

Waiting for another "Bull Run." --A messenger who undertook to deliver a letter from one Federal prisoner to another, in this city recently, dropped it on the floor of a public hall, perhaps intentionally. The writer says: "I am patiently waiting for another Bull Run battle to take place, when I hope for an exchange; but if we get as badly used up as we did on the 21st of July, I think I will apply to be admitted as a citizen of the C. S. A.; for sure I will believe the d — l is only on our side." This is a candid expression of sentiment, and the writer seems to be an honest fellow. Satanic influences direct the course of public sentiment at the North, but truth and justice must ultimately triumph.
