The Corporal succeeded in getting back to the regiment in time to join in the second cha

Gold in New York on Monday opened at 233, sold down to 232, and advanced to 237½ rumors of disaster to General Warren's army. From this point it receded to 235, and closed at 283¼.

Miller, all influential citizens of Kentucky, are in Washington to persuade Lincoln to a positive radical administration of affairs in Kentucky, and particularly to vouchsafe to Kentucky Ben. Butler as a military commander.
