m officers, and that, in view of an apprehended attempt to escape, the gunboat Michigan was ordered thither, and has arrived. As these prisoners could not leave the island, excepting with the aid of vessels, the story is not improbable that the transports were to be furnished by their sympathizing friends. The following dispatches show that measures have been taken to stop the matter: Buffalo, Nov. 13.--Mayor Fargo has received a second dispatch from Secretary Stanton stating that Major-Gen. Dix had been ordered to Buffalo to adopt measures for the security of the frontier against the plotting of the traitors who have taken refuge in the British provinces. The Mayor has taken measures to guard against incendiaries. He is also in communication with Gov. Seymour in relation to military affairs. Cincinnati, Nov. 13.--No additional intelligence relative to the Johnson's Island affair beyond that already telegraphed has been received. All was quiet in that vicinity last night

Only a few of Stuart's cavalry are beyond the Rapidan. The Philadelphia Inquirer says: On Mondaycoon Ford, which is east of the railroad, to Rapidan Station, on the railroad. Meade's duty, of which he is fully aware, is to keep close to him, never letting him , but always manœuvring for a good battle-field. This, we are glad to know, is Meade's forte, as he has shown by his position at Gettysburg, and his escape when Leets twenty dollars per month from the State Treasury in lieu of bounties. Gen.

Bogus Union meetings are being held in Little Rock, Ask. The Evening Transcript, a paper started in Baltimore two weeks ago, by Wm. H. Wilson, one of the former proprietors of the Gazette, has been suppressed by Gen. Schenck. The fight at Rappahannock Station seems to have been considered by the Yankees as a regular battle.

Gen. Meade's official report of the Gettysburg battle sums up
The victory was decisive, and the enemy's retreat became a total rout, his forces throwing away their arms and scattering in every direction. The cavalry pursued till dark, capturing many prisoners and a large quantity of arms, ammunition, &c. The enemy's wounded have all fallen into our hands. Our loss in killed and wounded is about one hundred. B. F. Kelley, Brig. Gen'l. Clarksburg, Nov. 8, 1863. To Governor Boreman: A telegram has just been received from Gen.

upon the event. Ferdinand Richardson, for many years Clerk of the late U. S. District Court in Eastern Virginia, has been confined in the Old Capitol at Washington as a hostage. Little Rock advices, of the 6th inst., say that the rebel Gens. Price's and Holmes's commands are still at Marshall, Texas. But few rebel troops are now within the borders of Kansas. Marmaduke's cavalry and some 2,500 men are in the mountains west of Fort Smith, short of supplies. A dispatch from Leavenworth, dated the 9th says Blunt is in a bad way. It adds: "Advices from Fort Scott say that a courier arrived there on Friday night from General Blunt, bringing information that the rebels, under Cooper and Shelby, eluded our forces, crossed the Arkansas river with 9,000 men, and were marching on Blunt, who has 1,800 cavalry as an escort to an immense supply train for Fort Smith. Gen Blunt had curtailed his train and made preparations for defences." Lehigh coal sold in Philadelphia

There is no news from Meade's army, which, it is said, is confronting Lee's army, which is said to be this side of the Rapidan. Only a few of Stuart's cavalry are beyond the Rapidan. The Philadelphia Inquirer says: On Monday Kilpaway, but always manœuvring for a good battle-field. This, we are glad to know, is Meade's forte, as he has shown by his position at Gettysburg, and his escape when Lee would have forced him to do battle on a disadvantageous field. By the latest intelligence from Washington we are led to believe that the hour of a great battle is Chattanooga as late as the 12th inst. An artillery duel between the batteries on Lookout Mountain and Moccasin Point is the only thing like news. They say that Gen. Lee has taken Bragg's army; that Gen. Hardee has been assigned to Gen. Polk's corps, and relieved General Longstreet on Lookout Mountain. The latter has gone with 1
