ersations among the officers and General Beauregard while waiting at table, to the effect that the intention of the latter was to draw Gen. McClellan into action if possible; and they gathered that the strength of the rebels before Washington was one hundred thousand men.--General Johnston they knew had left Manassas, but for what point they were ignorant until they heard in Washington that he was reported to be at Leesburg, which they say is very probably true. Among other fugitives was a Mr. Davis, formerly policeman at Charleston, who says that he was sent in charge of a prisoner to Nashville, and took the opportunity to escape by way of Kentucky to Washington. He states that the battle of Bull Run is considered by the rebel officers a dearly-bought victory, and confirms the reports from other quarters that the rebel army were beaten, and were in full retreat at half-past 4 on the afternoon of the 21st of July; nor can they account to this day for the panic and flight of our army

itors of the public Press disposed to give circulation to the subjoined communication: Richmond, Va. Oct. 14, 1861. Gentlemen: --I have been daily asked — verbally and by letters, by friends and by strangers to me — for whom I will cast my vote for the Presidency and Vice Presidency? As only the difficulty or misunderstanding which led me to withdraw from the public service after I had raised and organized two regiments of troops under the name of the Polish Brigade has given place to these questions, I therefore declare publicly that, in casting my vote, no other considerations but the good of the Confederacy and its exigency will be my guide; and I will therefore vote for Jefferson Davis for the Presidency and Alexander M. Stephens for the Vice Presidency, because I earnestly believe that their removal, at this crisis of the country, would lead to the most disastrous consequences. Very respectfully, Your meet obedient servant, G. Tochman, Of Alexandria county, Va
