in reference to the Maryland election. Headquarters, Baltimore, November 1, 1861. To the United States Marshal of Maryland and the Provost Marshal of the City of Baltimore: Information has come to my knowledge that certain individuals who formerly resided in this State, and are known to have been recently in Virginia bearing arms against the authority and the forces of the United States, have returned to their former homes with the intention of taking part in the election of the 6th of November inst., thus carrying out at the polls the treason they have committed in the field. There is reason also to believe that other individuals, lately residents of Maryland, who have been engaged in similar acts of hostility to the United States, or in actively aiding and abetting those in arms against the United States, are about to participate in the election for the same treacherous purpose, with the hope of carrying over the State by disloyal votes to the cause of rebellion and treas

t, considering the ground fought over, and the extreme difficulty experienced in handling artillery in the woods, I am satisfied that no man could have effected more under the circumstances.

is way through the Bahama Channel to New York. What do you think? I do not know whether it has come before your notice at all; but what do you believe? How will you put trust in the veracity of such men who will write such things, when on the 16th of October I saw the San Jacinto off St. Thomas? I cannot remember now whether it was on the night of the 16th or on the morning of the 17th. I went on my way to Mexico, going to Havana, Vera Cruz, Tampico. On my return to Havana, on the 6th of November, I found that the San Jacinto had been to Havana from St. Thomas; that she had coaled there, and that two of her officers, passing themselves off as Southerners in their hearts, had lunched with Mr. Slidell and family, and extracted from them their intended movements. (Sensation; Hear, hear; and That never came out before; Bravo. ) I again say that I am going to approach a subject with great diffidence. I am going to speak of Mrs. Slidell and her daughters. (Hear, hear, and Cheers fo

ell that the hearts of those at home are with those now fighting for the national welfare, and sacrificing their personal interests for the re-etablishment of our shattered Government upon its once firm footing, I take this opportunity of informing your patriotic readers of the last hazardous expedition in this part of Western Virginia. This brigade, consisting of the Thirteenth, Twelfth, and Tenth Ohio regiments, under Brigadier-General Benham, crossed the Kanawha at this point on the 6th of November, and remained five days at the mouth of Loup Creek, with but six tents per company, in accordance with orders, and one blanket per man. During our sojourn at this point, our force was joined by McMullen's battery, or, as it is more vulgarly termed, the Ass battery, and, together with the seventh, Thirty-seventh, and Forty-fourth regiments O. v. I., our entire command amounted to about three thousand men. Thus equipped and organized, we set out on the march toward Fayette, over a distric
