October 15, 1861. vn Faixnps at the various military camps and Positions will confer a favor by Keeping us posted to movements and affairs {n their vicinities. The Salotilgoneer treats upen the protestations of the “ peace party’? in Maryland. The Republican devotes its attention to the “natural boundaries” claimed by the Southern Confederecy Vireimta —We have late and reliable intelli- gence from ‘the Valley” and Eastern Virginia ‘with reference to the state of popular sentiment there, which strengthens our conviction that with prudence on the part of the Government of the Ualted States when the disunion army may be driven beck on Richmond, there will be a very general and prompt organization of the popula- tion refusing to fol'ow the retreating foe, to re- cover and to maintain by arms their former rights as citizens of the United States. It is beyond all question true, that the masses throughout the State already realize the sacrifices exacted of them in Debalf of the conspiracy of Sonth Carolina and the cotton States, whose yoke they feel to be galling pest further bearing. We hear, from a gentleman ‘who left the Piedmont country last week, that ‘Union sentiments are again finding loud and elo- quent utterance, where three months ago it was ‘worth a man’s life or liberty to whisper them above his breath. The sentiment obtaining there is that Virginia’s secession policy was a monstrous fraud, made successful for the time being by the fear and force of bayonets; and that its triumph in the State must end whenever the masses feel tol- erably sure that the United States can successfully aid them in the recovery of their lost liberties In the Valley the Union sentiment was never So strong as at this time; yet the arms there being all im the hands of thote chained for the time ‘Deing to the car of the oligarchy, it finds utter- &nce only in bold protests against and denuncia- tions of the monstrous wrong, rather than in general concentrated efforts to put the wrong down by force. . We learn from our informant of the present attitude of many individual gentlemen of the ‘Valley and the Piedmont region, formerly staunch Unionists, who however permitted themselves to be swept into the vortex of treason for the time being, and who now have resumed and openly avow their former opposition to the secession heresy. They are not molested for so doing, simply because the oligarchists know that they are too clearly representative men to venture to stir up more general opposition by venturing to exercise despotic authority upon them Once drive Beauregard and Jobnsoa, and their followers from other States, back of Manassas, and Loudon, Jefferson, Fairfax, Morgan, Frederick, and Hampshire counties, (Va.,) will soon be able to free themselves from the presence of every man belonging among them not disposed to resume his rights as a citizen of the United States.

A RECONN AND A SKIRMISH. Yesterday First Lieut. Cross, of U.S Engineers, madea surveying reconnoisance, accompanied by | three hundred men of the 49th New York Volun- teers. He proceeded to a point two miles beyond Lewinsville, in front of the position occupied by Gen. Smith’s column. There he found theenemy in some force, with a body also pretty strongly posted in a house. The detachment of the Forty-ninth had a smart little brush with the enemy ere it retraced its steps at the conclrsion of Lieut. Cross’s survey- ing labors. No one on our side was elther killed or wounded. it is not known what damage our fire did tothe enemy. Our troops engaged were under fire for the first time, and acquitted them- selves most satisfactorily. ANOTHER NAVAL AFFAIR. This Time at Lynnhaven Bay—A Diswnion Bat tery Silenced. Commodore Goldsborough has forwarded to the Navy Department the following report : 1861. U_ 8. Prorstien Daruicat. Blockading off Cape Henry, Oct. 11, Sir :—Yesterday afternoon, a few minutes before 4, p.m., it was reported to me that a battery on shore in Linnhaven Bay had opened fire on the American ship Jobn Clark, of Baltimore, which hed come in and anchored during the gale, and dragged within range of the enemy’s guns, dis- tant about a mile and a half. I got under way and stood down to her assistance, and on getting with- in range opened fire, anda spirited engagement was kept up on both sides for about forty min. utes, when the enemy ceased firing, their battery of four or five guns being silenced ; so that, al- though we remained within range for an hour and a balf efter the firing bad cessed, assisting the ship to get under way, not a shot was fired by them Our sbot generally were well directed, and must have done execution. Fortunately none of their shot hit us, though they came near enough. The officers and men were eager for the fray, end evinced a spirited determination to do their whole duty; and I was well pleased, not only with their eonduct, but also with the precision of their aim. 1 bave the honor to be, sir, respectfully, your obedient servant, Samvet Locx woop, Commd’g. To Flag Officer L. M. Gotpsporoven, comd’g Atlantic Blockading Squadron, Hampton Roads, Va. AN ASSISTANT ADJUTANT GENERAL APPOINTED. Capt Henry Clay (grandson of Henry Clay, sr., and son of the late Col. Clay, who was killed in the battle of Beuna Vista,) has been appointed an Assistant Adjutant General of Volunteers, and assigned to the staff of Brigadier General Richard W. Johnson, in Kentucky. NO PASSES SOUTH. HEADQUARTERS OF THE ARMY, Wasuineton, Oct. 14, 1361 To save trouble to all concerned, it ia announced that the Government has ceased to grant passes to go South through the United States lines. HOW THRY REGARD FREMONT IN ST. LOUIS The following extract fr m a letter just received by @ gentleman of this city, from an intelligent friend in St. Louis, shows what the people in the department of Missour! think of their command- ing General and his plans: “© You have doubtless read with astonishment the account of the grand entry of Mrs. Fremont into Jefferson City, and bow the ‘body guard and staff’ escorted her; and how fireworks were let eae ew candles were burnt in her hon- * Pri time of imminent peril! Mark Blair's expres- sion—‘Ohb, for one hour of our dead Lyon!’ ard he might have added, ‘in place of the living ass!’ Twelve St. Louis butchers sufficed for the body guard of the deceased bero; and with none other than the troops raised within the State, be rid it of rebels down to the Arkansas border. What is our condition now, with the hundreds of cannon, the thousands of wagons. the ample equipments and accoutrements, and the 50 000 men from ad- Joining States! The rebel army comes and goes, conquering town after town, and eluding the ‘vighlance® of the Commanding General at every pofat Fremont had them ‘bagged’ at Lexing- n!—of course he had. Now, [am afraid they have bagged him, and at this writing my fears are that Price, who seems to have it all his own way, having fooled Fremont in the Northwest, will make a junction with McCulloch’s army somewhere this side of Rolla, and execute a rapid advance on St. Louls with an army of about 40,000 or 50,000 men—for they bave such num- bers—and, between you and me, we are in no condition here, just now, to resist one-sixth of that force in this city. “Things in Missouri are really ina terrible con- dition, ‘and likely to come to mair,’ as old Bailie Nicol Jarvie would say, unless some change is soon made at the head of our depariment. The rand efforts to ape Enropean pomp will not do ‘bis cumbrous body guard and staff, and ‘make- way-for-the-Ti ch’ style, may answer in Rus- sian and Turkish field preparations, but 1s most criminal trifling in our present emergency. We Sre threatened with a formidable foe, and we need activity, energy, and earnestness—not pomp, bombast, and tinsel) What should have been an offensive war here, is now a struggle for mere existence.’’ AFFAIRS IN NEW YORK. [Speciai correspondence of The Star.} New Yorx, Oct. 14 —Times are much better. The entire North, of which New York is the heart, begins to resume its old fashioned bustling activity. The hotels, places of amusement, and the trades generally, are doing a moderately fair business. Provisions are low, wages fair, and starvation nowhere. Wall street is rampant. Look at the stock list. All we want fs one really victorious brush with the rebels, either with the army or navy. It isa sight well worth seeing to look off the Battery at the great tieet of steamship® now ready for a start. I counted twenty-four yesterday, and I understand there will be forty, exclusive of sailing vessels. Their destination remains a secret. Twelve months ago the Gov- ernment could not have lived and kept their destination a secret. BAVY YARD. The-steemer storeship W yandank, Capt. Sherl- dan came up this morning at 2 o'clock, and re- ports all quiet down the river. The Wyandank laid under Matthias Point last Sunday, transfer- ring stores to the Howell Cobb, and neither ves- sel was molested by the Confederates, if any were there. None were seen or heard. The Wy- andank is taking in coal and naval stores and will go down again Immediately. The Pusey came up at 2 o'clock yesterday eve- ning but went down again, and the Seminoleand Pocahontss left the yard this morning. The Confederates are buliding a new and strong work at Ship Point—lower side of Quantico—a point where, if they are allowed to Proceed un- molested, they will be able to cause annoyance. The Pusey was sent to reconnotter the new work, and is said to have reported the above facts, and also the presence of a considerable body of troops at and near that point. The Yankee, Jacob Bell, and Reliance left In- dian Head for a cruise down the river, yesterday, but soon returned. The schooner Dana was fired into by pickets from Normanie Cliffs, near Matthias Point, last Saturday ; but the [sland Belle came up and sent a sbell or two among the bushes,which dispersed the rebels, as they were seen running. The Pensacola still lies opposite Alexandria. The Pawnee, Harriet Lane, Mount Vernon, Hetzel, Dawn and Anacostia are at the Yard. The Anacostia is still in the dock ; one of her boilers is under the sheers, and will soon be put on board her.

SE SEE An Escape from Enforced Enlistment. a SECESSION NEWSPAPERS RAZEED IN SIZE —_+—. A Budget of Extracts. —_.——_ A gentleman has just arrived in Washington from one of the upper counties of Virginia,(whose name for prudential reasons we do not here men- tion,) and who brings some interesting intell!- gence as to affairs in upper Virginia On the 34 of October, when our inférmant came through Winchester, there were no Con- federate troops there whatever, but there were from 2,000 to 3,000 militia at Martinsburg; and Turner Ashby’s Cavalry Company, some 400 strong , was between Sheperdstown and Duffield’s station, on the Baltimore and Obio Railroad. The drafting system bad been very vigilantly enforced to bring every available man between the ages of 18 and 45 into the Confederate ranks. It is almost impossible for those drafted to get exemption, and one_man who is so short-sighted that he cannot distinguish his own wife across the room, tried in vain to get a discharge from the regimental surgeon, who avered that short-sightedness was no cause for exemption. He, however, got off by application at headquarters. The Confederates were rather down in the mouth at the non-success of Floyd and Wise in Western Virginia, but solace themselves with the belief that 60,000 Marylanders are ready to rise and join Necesh whenever Beauregard crosses the Potomac. There is a strong under-current of Union sentiment at Winchester, (which the Con- federates brand as ‘‘an abolition hole,”?) and had Gen. Patterson moved to that point he would have been warmly welcomed there. The Union men in that part ef Virginia do not hesitate to brand Patterson as a traitor. Groceries were getting up to famine prices at Winchester. Coffee was selling at from 40 to 60 cents per pound; sugir from 26 to 30; salt $15 per sack; and other things in proportion. Corn and flour were at moderate prices, as there was no chance to export it Our informant brought with him a copy of the Winchester Republican of Sept 27. This once handsome and flourishing paper has shared the fate of so many other secesh journals, and is reduced to one half its former size, and is printed on inferior paper. It has quite evidently “run out of sor's,”’ more especially “caps,” and {s so hard run as to be obliged to desecrate the Sabbath con- tinually, (in {ts editorial columns,) spelling it with a little ‘‘5."? From tals copy of the Republican we take the following : HON. JAMES M. MASON CONFEDERATE MINISTER To ENGLAND. Hon. James M. Mason left town yesterday en route to Richmond, on his way to England as the Confederate Minister to the Court of St. James May success attend his mission, and he return with renewed health and vigor to his many friends! WHAT ALEXANDER R BOTELER HAS TO SAY The following extract froma letter received from Hon A R Boteler, in relation to the canv .ss for Congress, has been sent us for publicatio: : “In regard to the canvass for Congress | have been studiously silent, as [ have a special repug- nance to whatever may seem like thrusting my- self on tbe public; but you can say for me that I have consented to become a candidate, which I Suppose will be suiticient. In doing so, however, it ts but proper that [should say that, having done all that [ conid, consistent with self-respect, to preserve the Union upon its original basis of constitutional equality, | am equally resolute in my determination to resist all attem: should any be made, for I's restoration; being u terably opposed to reconstruction, at any time or on an terms. This much is due to the people that 1 should make known before the election, so that they may be aware of the course I shall pursue, if elected. Yours, &c , A.R. Botzien.” MOVEMENTS OF THE CONFEDERATES UP RIVER. For the past few days we have had a variety of Tumors, as tothe movement of the enemy across the Potomac as well as in Hampshire. It is be- lteved, however, thdt a division of Banks’ coim- mand, 5.000 strong has again returned to the up- pee Potomac, Re their lines from opposite jhepherdstown to Williamsport. Bri, ler Gen Carson, has gone forth to meet nd should they attempt to cross the Poto- » another glorious victory will be won by our invincible troo, Gen Carson will for the pres- ent establish bis headquarters In Martinsburg. It Is believed by s: that be will pass the Rubicon, end cross into Maryland, but we do not credit the report. From Hampshire we have the exciting rumor, th t Col McDonald, and his entire com- mand, was surrounded a few miles west of Rom- ney and captured. This news hewever, we can scarcely credit, and trust to be able to give reli- able information of bis successful resistance of the Federalists, before going to press. S —Lite and reliable news direct from Col. McDonald’s camp, gives the lie to the exaggera- ted rumors of the capture of bis command, with bis death, and that of Captains Wingfield, Sbeetz and Jordan On Tuesday morning the enemy appeared in overwhelming numbers near Romney, and open- ed fire upon biscamp. Finding that his cavalry could not be made available, owing to the pecu- liar locality of the intry, Col. McDonald fell back six miles this side of Romney On Wed- nesday morning, with a considerable force of militia together with his cavalry, he returned to drive the enemy from their position. The result of this expedition we have not yet learned AFFECTING APPEAL OF THE “‘ TENDERLY REARED” ¥ F Vv.

In behalf of those whose parents and riends live in other States, and are denied the pustiese of tras papi babar them, I ask that hey be particularly remembered.

AN INCENDIARY ENEMY AT WORK The residence of John Stephenson, Eaq., of this county, was fired a few days since just before day- light, and burnt to the ground. Mr Stephenson's family was from hi tthe time. There can be no doubt of the fire BRing the work of an incen- diary. The loss was about $5,000; it was insured, however, to the amount of $1,000, in the Valley Insurance Company. We also learn that the ele- gant mansion of Capt HM. Nelson. of Clarke county, Lonybranch, was set on fire a few nights since, and narrowly escaped destruction. The conservatory, we learn, was entirely consumed before the flames could be conquered. We have to record another act of incendiarism in Clarke county. On laat Sunday night Daniel W. Sowers, Esq , had five stacks of wheat (con- taining about 1 bushels) entirely destroyed by fire. The torch was applied to all five at the same moment THE WINCHESTER COMMON COUNCIL NOT SOUND ON THE CONBDERATE Gooss.

Johnston, Polk, and Pillow are at Columbus with full 40.000 men and an abundance of cannon of all Sizes, and that they are contemplating an attack on Paducab. We have letters from the advance of the Federal army on the Louisville and Nashville Railroad, from which we learn that a detachnent from the Federal forces crossed Nolin creek at 3 o'clock yesterday morning and took up the line of march for Green river. From what we can learn the pickets of the two armies are in close proximity to eacff other, one report representing the one as having been within gun-shot of the other. We are assured that John C. Breckinridge, George B. Hodge, Wm. Preston, and Humphrey Maraball were are Bowling Green on Monday. It is said that about 3,000 men had been detailed from Buckner my and sent south, and that the force at Bowling Green did not number more that 2,000 on Tuesday. Gen.

Mr. Cox reports that business is en- tirely at a stand still in ickman and the adjoin- ing country. A brisk trade was carried on for some time between Hickman and the Southern Confederacy, but supplies are exhausted and busi- ness there bas closed Mr. Cox traveled by land from Hickman to Paducah, and he describes bis journey as very protracted and tedious, but almost everything was better than to risk bimeelf longer in the hands of a relentless and irresponsible mob, who punish their victims without reference to legal forms. Our informant says {: was the plan of the confederates, who claimed a force of forty- five thousand men, to march upon Paducah at an early and he would not be surprised to learn soon that a collision had taken place between the iy ae ig armies ator near Puducab. Mr. Cox infor 8 that it is the great ambition of the army in and about Hickman and Columbus to possess themselves of Paducah and destroy Louleville, the latter achievement being one of their fondest dreams. The Pocahontas (Ark.)
