[ASSOULATED PRESS DISPATUHES.] FROM NEW ORLEANS, Romor that Brashear City has been taken by the Rebels —Federal Expediton fer Rio Grande. New OBLEana, Sept. 1.—'The plot thickens!” Movements toward great events are every day occurring, foreshadowing aspeedy demonstra- tion. A week ago the Uonfederates demanded the surrender of Brashear City. ‘Since then they have taken two little places this side of Brashear, and now, itis reperted upon good authority, Brashear City itself; but this is positively denied. United States troops have been sent by Ope- Jousas railroad, by transports to the mouth of Red River, and yia Berwick Bay. The guerrilias fired upon the John Raine, of the Marine Brigade, above Donaldconyille, milling one and wounding thirteen. Yesterday the rebels showed themsetves at Plaquemine, 12 miles this side of Raton Rouge, and, jndging they were the advance of a large body, the Provost Marshal and men there got oY suddenly on the steamer Arago. The guer- rillas algo fired on the steamer Julia, at Mor- ganza. But insignificant indeed are these items com- red to the great movements now going on ere. Many eailing vessels have been char- tered; troops are aurricdly put on board: troops at Ship Isiand have been sent; others are fol- lowing—for the Rio Grande! The Monroe doctrine will find numerous advocates at Brownsville in less than three days. Napo- leon will find tha; he is not to remain undis- terbed. You can depend upon this news. Rumor says that a large body of Mexicans are awaiting the arrival of the U.S. forces— Juarez’s party, I suppose. The city is rife with rumors that the star- spangled banner will soon wave in triumph over the Mexican city of Matamoras! This latter place is almost Immediately opposite Brownsville. FROM TENNESSEE. The Retreat of Brage's Army—Rosecrans’ Forces in Pursuit. CHATTANOOGA, Sept. 12.—No details of Gen, Negley’s engagement at Dug Gap have come in. From all that can be gathered, the casual- ties were light. General Negley retired three miles to the foot of Lookout Mountain. Gen. Baird’s division was aleo engaged. Dng Gap is four miles north of New Lafayette, where the main column of Bra:g was at the time of the engagement, It is thought that Bragg feared to lose contro} over his line of retreat to Rome, ard was re- treating slowly to avoid a repetition of the scenes ef the Tullahoma retreat and prevent straggling. Nevertheless, large numbers of deserters come in daily. Three hundred of the 19th Tennessee regi- ment came in in a body. At leastone thousand deserters have arrived here since the evacn ticn, and a large number are said to be on Mie- sionary Ridge. General Crittenden is reported to haye occa- pied Lafayette to-day and the army 4s again concentrated. at7o’clock; performance at 8 o’clock. se 14 66 VARIETIES! VARIETIES!

Forrale by Feo from Havana on the 9th inst., arrived to-night. Dates from Vera Oruz to the 5th had been re- ceived. There was great scarcity of food in Mexico. Many of the inhabitants of Mexico had been imprisoned for the assassination of French soldiers and for refusing to take the oath of allegiance. The Peruvian Minister had received his pass- | pay and been ordered to leave the country for aving written to Juarez. + Itwas also rumored that Minister Corwin had been tendered his passport, but this was not eon firmed. The repurt wat YOdDIAdO ana Vomuntori naa declared in favor of the new regime has turned out to be false. A French cenvoy from Mexico to Vera Cruz was captured by guerrillas at Goledad, and the greater part of the guard killed. The troubles in San Domingo are increasing. The rebels are in great force, and the general in command of the Spanish troops calls for more soldiers. Merchant ships were seized and pressed into the service to carry troops. Seserai war steamers haye gone to Puerto sata. Troops are coming in from Matanzas and Cardenas to be sent to San Domingo. The particulars are carefully concealed from the public here. It was feared that the lack of rainin Cuba would render the coming crops very small. Bread Riot by the Women of Mobile. MeEmMPuIs, Sept. 11.—Refugees lately arrived within our lines bring exciting reportseof a terrible condition of affairs in the South. One Man, who left Mobile on the Sth, states that there was a terrible riot of soldiers’ wives in Mobile on the 4th. About six hundred women and children col- Jected on Spring Hill, armed with clubs and hatchety, and marched through the principal streets, carrying banners, inscribed “; or Blood,” “Bread or Peace,” and other similar mscriptions. They being soldiers’ wives their proceedings were winked at by the soldiers, who made but feeble resistance. ftores were broken open. One merchant, a Jew, struck one of the women, and some of the Olice sent out and arrested the Jew, and beat severely. Many of the cillzens have left town, among them our informant, who says the riot was increasing when he left. The rebel cavalry in our front are very ac- tive, probably ing some movement of the main army. Ski was frequent, but amounted to little. Our forces generally are successful in these little affairs.

Price—Tarur Curve. meddle in this matter.. Thetenant is protected and the landlord is not. There wasa continual outcry in this city of “why is not something done to protect the landlord!” and yet when a simple resolution is introduced for their pro- tection, it is reported upon adversely. He be- liewed that protecting landiords wasaduty whieh was owing to them. He hoped the res- olution would be returned to the committee, or, if not, that it would be passed anyhow. Mr. Utermehie said he thenght it was a mis- take to think that landlords were not adequate- ly protected.. The fault was often with the Jandiords themeelves, who made agreements with their tenants of which they rwards repented. He held that the councils had no more right to pass this resolution than they Would bave to pass one for the relief of wives who would complain of being maltreated by their husbands, (looking at Mr. Pepper.) Mr. Peppe! Well, don’t look at me—I'n not come onder that clags.”” Laughter.) Mr. Utermenie continued. hy not also ask the codifier to change the relation of husband and wile, if one party gets drunk. With as much propriety that could be done as to pass this resolution. Councils had nothing to do with theee relations, which are fixed either by common or statute law. He (Mr. U.) legislated only with regard to what he believed to be his @uty, and feared neler Iaudlord or tenan’, He would do what he believed to be right, and would act in accordance with the charter. Mr. Pepper hoped the committ’e would not be discharged. He feared beth landlord and tenant. But he saw the drift of his colleague’s remarks. If he (Mr. Utermehle) were a physi- cian, he would probably follow his lead. But he was a lawyer, and this endless litigation between landlord and tenant pM his col- league. {Laughter.} He (Mr. Pepper) did not care two straws for the charter where it con- flicted with the wants of the people. Tre report of the committee was agreed and the resolution was laid on the table. The bill making appropriation for the repair of the bridge across Rock Creek at K streei, and the bill to repair M street couth, between Third and Fourth streets west, were both re- ported upon favorably by the committee of improvements and passed. Mr. Utermehle introduced a biil for the con- struction of a sluice across Maryland avenue, near Boundary street; which was passed. The act to regulate and license livery stablcs came up as the special order, and was consid- ered by sections. Mr. Pepper moved to amend the 6th section by striking out that portion which required that vebicles should not be permitted to stand on the streets and avenues in the neighhor- hood of the stables for a longer time than was absolutely vireried / to have them removed. He argued that the jaw in that form was op- pressive, and that it would deprive the livery stable keepers of much custom, because they did not have stable room sufficient to remove the wagons out of the way. Especially was this the case when there were so many sutler wagons in the city, and it would require a ten- acre lot to accommodate all such, which from necessity were obliged to stand in the streets a certain length of time while the horses were being fed. He thought at least 43 hours shonld te allowed for the removal. These livery sta- + ble keepers had at much expense put up these stables, and he thought it was all wrong to take this sort of snap judgment on them. The Board refused to concar in Mr. Pepper's amendment, and the bill passed. Mr. Turton, from improvements committee, reported a bill for the repair of Twentieth street west, from K street north to Boundary, which was passed. Mr. Pepper introduced a resolution, which was sdopted, requesting the improvements committee to report a bill to improve North Capitol street, from H street north to New York avenue. The following bills from the Board of Com- mon Council were passed —Bill to grade and gravel E street north, between 9th and 10th streets west. The following also from the Board of Com- mon Council were referred, viz:—Bill for the relief of James Bowen—referred to the commit- teeon markets. Bill for the repair of the cause- way on M sirect soumt, between 4th and 6th ctroote oact; hill for the renair of or i 5 Seventh Ward; bill to grade and gravel Nuste street west, from F to street south; to grade and gravel K street south, from 3d to Gth streets east; to trim and gravel Indiana avenue, from 43¢ to 2d streets west; to construct a gutter in the Sixth Ward; to provide for a payed foot- way across Eleventh street, in the Seventh ‘Ward; to repair a gutter in the Third Ward; to refit the curb and relay the gutter on the west side of Tenth street, from Maryland avenue to Virginia avenue; to provide for a deficiency in a certain case; and the bill for the repair of cul- veris in the Sixth Ward—all referred to the committee on improvements. The bill to provide for the payment of the sixth installment of the principal and the half- yearly interest due on certain guaranteed bonds, was referred to committee on finance. Adjourned.

Mr. Shedd introduced a bill regulating the sale of wood and coal; which was referred to the committee on police and made the special order for Monday next. [The bill provides for the Specimens annually of ten measurers and weighers of wood and coal, who shall givea certificate with every load sold, receiving there- for a fee of five cents per load, payable by eller, and imposes a Penalty tion of the law.

Larner rose to 8 personal explans- tion, and eaid that the ‘ieman. ftom the Third Ward, (Mr. ) in the debate upon the resolution from the con- tingent committre, had a; to him a num- ver of epithets which, if would anfit him Lelie hay neem ales) charged him ith being a hypocri‘e demagogue, and Be explained the meaning of these epithets as given by ming tacneee ns on The tabsptolpyeared e meant a leader of rabble, and he never Undertook to lead such, In the’ eamo indice, ment, which contains many counts, Mr S. had charged him with a blunderer in arith- with = culatin, Coun expenses of last year had ran w x le Rid inferred thai thatamount bad bese send edatthe Capitol celebration.and bad so charged, butwhen he found hiserror,he made the a@mende honorable. ‘ie asserted that if proper discre. tion bad been used im the ftting ‘up of the Council Chamber, $224 would have been saved; and he said that thecurta‘ns cost €30 moreeach than would have been charged by any other house in the city. Let the arith meticians cipher out the per centage m#de on furnishing and putting down the carpets! He ascerted that the profits were seventy-five percent. The man who charged him with malice, or with being instigated by sinister motives in this matter, lied in hisinmost soul, and would, if ap opportunity offered, sell bis Lord and Mas- ter ser thirty pieces of silyer. Yr. N. D. Larner offered the following, which ‘Wa: adopted: Kesoived, That the Mayor be, and he is hereby, ¥ quired to call the attention of Captain Todd, Provost marshal, to the fact that the employees of the Government, at their stables in the ni i: hborhood of the Treasur: wo ost are in the habit of depositing from said s'ables in Fifteenth street west, below C street ncrth, and to request his interference to stop the same. Mr. ©. Wilson introduced the following bill: Be it enacted, &c., That the station house fer the use of polit Police, = enth WF sta ne Metropolitan Po ae yin the Sex, of lot 1, m square No. 491, now belonging to the Corporation; provided it does not extend west of a lise parallel with Sixth street west, and two hundred and fifteen and five-twelfths feet eastward therecf, and on no other part of said sanate purchased by the Corporation for mar- et purposes. Tr. Wilson eaid that proposals had been ad- vertised for by the Mayor and Presidents of the boards, which called for building the sta- tion on a lot eet apart for market-house pur- poses, which he thought was improper. The zeventh Warders have no market-house yet, butexpect to have some of these days, when the lot will be wanted for that purpose. Mr. Noyes hoped that some other location would be chosen for the station-house. The point mentioned in the bill (lot 10 in square 494) ‘was upon the ground now in use forschool pur- poses in the Seyenth Ward. He would like to fee the police well accommodated, but did not think it. would suit either the Police or the schools to be thrown in juxtaposition. Mr Wilson said that the committee had no right to — the Serre they had for the purpose, but he was willing to compromise and give them a lot near by which "could be dis- pensed with tor school purposes. The schools: he thought were temporarily on this square. Perhaps some day the Councils will vote them a heading like the one being erected in the Sixth ard. Mr. Noyes said that it was Roe that the locality would be used for school purposes for a long time—perhaps permanently. It was central, and desirable in many respects; and was now occupied by seven schools, accommo- dating eome five hundred pupils. There was a manifest impropriety in Mea Bares scenes of a police station directly among these children; and he urged that the propinguity of school- house aud station-house would be mutually disadvan ous It would be best to lecate Ure station-house elsewhere at the start. Mr. Ellis offered the foliowing: Resolved. That the committee on building new station-houses be Ss eae hd Ay bene to sus- nd the erection of the building in the Seventh ‘ard until a report be made on the sub; at f the committee appointed by the board; opt The subject was referred to the Seventh Ward delegation. The special order, the report of the special committee (“lessrs. Noyes, Ruff and N. D. Larner, ) on the guarantied bonds of the Wash- ington and Alexandria Railroad came up, and the yote being taken on the third reading of the bill, reported back favorably by the commit- tee, providing for the payment of three instal- ments of interest and one of the principal on said guarantied bonds, resulted as follows: ¥eas—Messrs.
