to the fact that very little confidence was felt in the continuance of the prevailing high price of gold. In another column it says: Two well-known operators in the gold room failed to respond to their contracts to-day, and the demand for gold created by these failures assisted the efforts of the "bulls" in some degree. Rumors, too, of unfavorable news from Grant's army were said to be current in Baltimore. After 2 o'clock, however, a report was circulated to the effect that Richmond was captured. Gold fell soon afterwards from 217 to 212, but recovered again. The stock market at the second board was also excited by the report, although little credit was attached to it. No rumor of importance, however improbable, fails to exercise at least a momentary effect in Wall street. John Van Buren for M'Clellan.

rers may be inferred from the following paragraph in the Washington Star: Forty-seven employees of the Quartermaster's Department were imprisoned yesterday for refusing to assist in clearing the Manassas Gap railroad of timber and buildings made use of by the guerrillas, the recent operations of the rebels along the road rendering it extremely dangerous to venture out unless provided with a formidable escort. The Alexandria (Virginia) Journal says: It is understood that General Augur, commanding the defences south of the Potomac, in view of the outrageous conduct of the guerrillas in tearing up the rails on the Manassas Gap railroad, by which the loss of life occurred a few days ago, will probably order a register of all the disloyal people of Fairfax and Alexandria counties for the purpose of having a daily detail to accompany the trains to the stations on prominent parts of the engines and cars.

ation. It was ascertained that the rebels have, on the extremity of their right wing, at Stony creek, seven thousand cavalry and infantry, strongly entrenched. Some deserters from our lines below Richmond having made oath before Beast Butler that eighty Yankee negro soldiers were taken out of Castle Thunder and carried down to work in the trenches, has sent the following letter to Commissioner Ould: Headquarters Department of Virginia and North Carolina, Army of the James, October 12, 1864. Sir: I enclose herewith an affidavit showing the employment of one hundred and ten (110) United States colored soldiers by the military officers of the Confederate forces in the trenches near Fort Gilmer--a practice justified by no rule of war or claim heretofore made by the Confederate authorities. I have ordered a like number of the officers and soldiers captured by us (preferably, as many of the Virginia reserve forces — by whom this outrage is being done — as I have capt

A rabid Lincoln sheet takes the following notice of this speech: The speaker commenced by referring to the fact that in his own State there was but little doubt felt respecting the favorable termination of the election on Tuesday next favorable to the interests of the Democratic party.

But there was no general movement, owing to the fact that very little confidence was felt in the continuance of the prevailing high price of gold.

We have received the New York Herald of Saturday, the 15th instant. We give below extracts from it: Around Richmond — silence about the repulse of Thursday--retaliation by Butler. It is quite significant that the Herald has not one word in it about the bloody repulse which the Yankees sustained before Richmond on Thursday; nor do its readers know that there was a fight on that day. A letter from before Petersburg says: An important reconnaissance was made on last Tuesday night from our extreme left by two hundred and fifty men of the Thirteenth Pennsylvania cavalry, under Major McCabe. They passed the enemy's cavalry pickets without being discovered, and proceeded to Stony Creek and Rowanty stations, the latter of which places is two miles beyond the extreme right of the rebel army. The expedition successfully returned, after making considerable captures and gaining much valuable information. It was ascertained that the rebels have, on the extremity of their ri

A rabid Lincoln sheet takes the following notice of this speech: The speaker commenced by referring to the fact that in his own State there was but little doubt felt respecfor him; he was glad that soon he would have an opportunity to fulfill this pledge. We are here to-night, said the speaker, to judge of the past acts of President Lincoln's Administration, and are ready to say that, during the four years of his term of service, enough evidence has been given to the people of the Union to prove He here put the question to the audience, whether they desired this state of things to continue, to which a number of voices responded "No, no." But, said he, Mr. Lincoln's Administration is soon to close, and that of General McClellan will then commence; then we may look for peace, prosperity and happiness as a people.--The spea

After asserting the recapture of Pilot Knob by of the rebel Price's forces in the State are now pillaging and conscripting in the country north of the Missouri river. Price himself, with the main portion of his army, is said to be still at Booneville. The Union troops garrisoning several small detached locations have been withdrawn and concentrated at Macon. In a speech which Price recently made to the people of Boonsville, he told them that if they did not now rally to his standard, it was the last time he would come into the State toes which this invasion must carry into the districts touched by it, it has another vast strategical significance. If Price should succeed to gain a firm foothold on the Missouri river, he controls from there the whole interior of Missouri, Sout

either case, it is admitted the majority will be small, and can only be determined by the official vote. The recording of the soldiers' votes is necessarily very slow, being distributed among various counties; and from the manner in which they appear on the tally papers, it is impossible to make an aggregate until the record is more complete. The returns from Ohio show Democratic gains on Congressmen from the first returns. Ashley, Republican, is defeated in the Tenth district; also Delano, in the Thirteenth district. The Democrats have also elected their Congressmen in the Fifth and Twelfth districts. A telegram, dated Cincinnati, the 14th, says: The Union majority in Ohio on the home vote is about thirty-five thousand. The soldiers' vote will probably increase it to eighty-five thousand. Seventeen Union Congressmen are elected. The latest returns show that the Democrats have elected Le Blond in the Fifth district and Finck in the Twelfth. In the Tenth and Thirt
