he most daring charges, killed one and wounded two Brigadier Generals, and a very large number of inferior officers and men, estimated at no less than 4,000, and captured 400 prisoners, including three Staff officers, with servants, carriage, and baggage of Major General McCook. The ground was literally covered with his dead and wounded. In such a contest our own loss was necessarily severe, probably not less than 2,500 killed, wounded, and missing. Included in the wounded are Brigadier-Generals Wood, Cleburne and Brown--gallant and noble soldiers — whose loss will be severely felt by their commands. To Major-General Polk, commanding the forces, Major General Hardee, commanding the left wing, two divisions, and Major-Generals Cheasham, Buckner, and Anderson, commanding divisions, is mainly due the brilliant achievements of this memorable field. Nobler troops were never more gallantly led. The country owes them a debt of gratitude, which I am sure will be acknowledged. Asc

Proceedings in the Courts. Mayor's Court, October 21. --John Miller, a man with curly hair, moustache and imperial, and subdued, meek look, was arraigned for committing a violent asssult on Mary Wolff, living in Jail Alley. The woman being disabled by the attack of Miller, which consisted of a knock down, stamping, "c., was unable to appear. The case was continued. Cornelius, slave of Wm. Hoe, of King George county, came to town with his master to sell some wheat, and got lost. He was a little nigger, and was arraigned as runaway or lost. The latter appeared to be the most probable, and he was sent to jail to await the call of his master, who had advertised for him as a lost darkey. The subject was both small and young. Geo. Washington, a venerable Ethiopian, slave of Maria Bond, was committed for going at large. Jas. McCabe, alias Johnson, arrested as one of the murderers of Kelley and Downes on the 9th of last. May, on 17th street, was brought up for ex
dingly concentrated three divisions of my old command — the army of the Mississippi, now under Major General Polk--Cheatham's, Buckner's, and Anderson's — and directed Gen. Polk to take the command on the 7th, and attack the enemy next morning. Withers's division had gone the day before to support Smith. Hearing, on the night of the 7th, that the force in front of Smith had rapidly retreated, I moved early next morning, to be present at the operations of Polk's forces. The two armies were acknowledged. Ascertaining that the enemy was heavily reinforced during the night I withdrew my force early the next morning to Harrodsburg, and thence to this point. Major General Smith arrived at Harrodsburg with most of his forces and Withers's division the next day, 10th, and yesterday I withdrew the whole to this point — the enemy following slowly, but not pressing us. I am, sir, very respectfully, Your obedient servant, [Signed,] Braxton Bragg, Gen. Com'g. To Adjutant General<

At the Libby prison there were no arrivals during the day. Some departures are expected on Thursday. At Castle Thunder 17 deserters and stragglers were brought in. The tenants of the city jail, numbering 100 or more, are under military guard, owing to the arrival of sundry men charged with offences against the Government, and who are soon to be tried.

d manners, I will not here consider. But one might as well deny the small feet and hands of that people as deny a certain inbred habit of command; a contempt of life in defence of honor or class; a talent for political life, and an easy control of inferiors. Nor is this merely an external and flashy heroism. It is real. It showed itself in Congress early, and always by the courage, eloquence, skill and success with which it controlled majorities. It showed itself in the social life of Washington by the grace, fascination and case, the free and charming hospitality, by which it governed society. It now shows itself in England and France, by the success with which it manages the courts and the circles of literature and fashion in both countries. It shows itself in this war in the orders and proclamation of its Generals, in the messages of the Rebel Congress, and in the essential good breeding and humanity (contrary to a diligently encouraged public impression) with which it not se

From the North. We continue our extracts from Northern papers of the 18th inst.: Wholesale Desertion of Federal paroled prisoners. Major General Wallace was ordered to Columbus to organize the paroled prisoners already there, and those hereafter to be sent there, for a campaign against the Indians. The General, upon his arrival at Columbus, found the greatest confusion existing. On his first visit to Camp Chase he gathered together the paroled prisoners, numbering about 4,000 mey positively refused to obey the order to move northward, and, with a yell and a bound, broke ranks and went southward to Camp Chase, leaving the Captain and two Lieutenants in the middle of the street to bereave their departed authority. Gen. Wallace immediately dispatched Provost Guard company in pursuit, but the deserters turned upon the guard, and, with boulder stones and clubs, drove them back. The guards were without ammunition, and not being experts in the use of the bayonet, conclu

The New York Herald, of the 18th, says there seems to be a respect that Wade and Sumner will be defeated for Congress. It says: Ohio has gonWade and Sumner will be defeated for Congress. It says: Ohio has gone decidedly Democratic in the recent election, and it is to be hoped that the Legislature is so strongly Democratic as to make the defeat of Senator Wade a certainty. In Massachusetts the people's party are much more powerful than was anticipated, and will give the supporters of Sumner a very close contest, and probably defeat thSenator Wade a certainty. In Massachusetts the people's party are much more powerful than was anticipated, and will give the supporters of Sumner a very close contest, and probably defeat them triumphantly. By the interference of these Senators with the conduct of the war, by their avowed hatred to the Constitution, and by their expressed repugnance to any restoration of the Union which does not involve the destruction and perhaps extermination of the South, they have fairly earned for themselves that overwhelming p
