ts are plentiful. Butter has not been so cheap for a long time. We have heard of good butter purchased for 13 cts. a pound during the present autumn.--Meats also are cheaper than they have been for several years. Pennsylvania Legislature. The Philadelphia Bulletin, Oct. 23, has the following in regard to the complexion of the next Pennsylvania Legislature: It is not possible, as yet, to give a complete and correct list of the members of the next Legislature elected on the 8th inst. In some cases the army vote, not yet received, may have to decide who is elected. The Senate, however, will stand twenty-three Republicans to ten Democrats. The Harrisburg papers give forty-two members of the House of Representatives to the Democrats, the remaining fifty-eight being classed as Republicans and Union men. These latter include some who have always been Democrats, but they were nominated by joint Conventions of all parties, in counties strongly Republican, such as Chester, L

een published in the Dispatch, from Northern correspondents and newspaper comments, universally concur in representing the disaster to the Federal arms at Leesburg, as of the most appalling character, and as having inflicted upon them a castigation which, doubtless, they will be long in forgetting. Full particulars from a Federal Source. The following is the description given of the fight at Santa Rosa by a Yankee correspondent: About half-past 3 o'clock on the morning of the 9th inst., the enemy attacked Wilson's Zonaves in force. Company E, Third Infantry, Capt. Hildt, and twenty- seven men of company A, First artillery, Lieut, Taylor, 83 men, all under command of Maj. Vogdes, sailed from the fort and met the enemy at some distance above Camp Brown. In the first attack of the regulars Maj. Vogdes was taken prisoner. Capt.

Terrible storm in Texas--Railroad Washed up, &c. The Houston Telegraph, of the 18th ult. has a dispatch giving further accounts of the storm at Galveston. It says the storm was the severest that has occurred there for the last five years, and adds: The wind which had been blowing fresh from the southeast all the morning, suddenly veered round to the northeast, between one and two o'clock, P. M., and commenced blowing heavily from that quarter. The tide in the bay being very high at the time, on account of the easterly wind in the morning, the waters of the bay soon commenced rising, and about half past 2 the strand and the adjacent streets, as far back as Market street, were flooded with water from one to three feet deep. Immense quantities of driftwood, old logs, bundles of shingles, and in fact everything that would float were floating around the streets in every direction. At the time the gale was at its highest the sailboat Mattee, with three men in her who

They expected to be as Hazel Green, where the enemy have been reported in considerable force on Thursday night. The troops were in high spirits, and full of determination to run the rebels out of Eastern Kentucky. Firing upon Confederate prisoners. From the Louisville Journal, of the 22d ult. we clip the following: Deputy U. S. Marshal J. W. Neville, started from Lebanon yesterday for this city with two prisoners who had been arrested on supposition of being of the Secessionists who pillaged Albany, Lincoln county. When near the city, one of them named J. H. Burnett, jumped from the train and made for the woods about Oakland the Marshal in full pursuit, and discharging two shots at him.--Favored by the approaching darkness, the prisoner contrived to make his escape, while

use, but, on the contrary, we have intelligence that the enemy has fallen back as far as Munson's bill. The destination of the Federal naval expedition is still a matter of conjecture, though precautionary measures have by no means been neglected — The telegraph informs us of an engagement on the coast of Georgia, between a Confederate battery and a Federal steamer, in which the latter seems to have got the worst of it. At all other points, matters remain quiet. The affair at Romney, on the 26th, though not to bad as at first reported, is serious enough according to accounts from Winchester, published yesterday. It is probable that the enemy contemplate taking winter quarters in that section, and the importance of having an experienced officer to command there, if not demonstrated sufficiently by the Romney disaster, ought to be fully manifest by this time. From Kentucky and Missouri we have no fresh intelligence. The Kentucky papers furnish accounts of the latest engagements

Blair, of the same State, are at the National. Senators Wilkinson, Trumbull, and Wade are also in the city. The chief object of the visit of some of these is, it is understood, to counsel the Government concerning the carrying on of the war. Many persons are coming here from the North to learn the fate of relatives who were in the battle near Leesburg. Another Chance for Fremont — the Influx of gold. "Iron." the special Washington correspondent of the Baltimore Sun, of the 26th ult., says: It is not positively known that Gen. Fremont has been, or is to be, superseded, though it is said that the Congress investigating committee, and proper officers, had made a report to the Government strongly condemning his administration of the business details of his military department. In this respect, however, his discretionary power has been much curtailed, as will be seen by the orders of the Secretary of War. A victory over General Price would still save Gen. Fremont,

ng the tune of "Dixie," and retired singing the old tune of "Fire in the mountains, run, boys," &c. Another man who was at the battle, says the Indianians got about $450 in gold from the pockets of the killed Tennessee rebels. The Tennessee regiment that left camp Dick Robinson did not arrive at Wildcat until after the battle. They however saw the bodies of 14 rebels, and recognized them as East Tennesseeans. Nelson Brigade going Forward. The Louisville Journal, of the 26th ult., says: The Cincinnati Commercial learns from Mr. David Thomas, of that city, Suller of Colonel Harris's regiment, that he left Gen. Nelson at McCormack's Gap, on the road from Olympian Spring to Prestonsburg. The brigade consisted of the Ohio 2d, 21st, and 33d; Metcalf's Kentucky regiment, about six hundred men, and Captain Kunkle's Artillery, six pieces. The effective force was about four thousand men.
