President Lincoln was present, and alseomany other personages of distinction. ‘The number of citizens of the first respecta- bility, with their families, was noticeably large; and the fact that the better class of the commu- nity thus resort to Ford’s is not only from the e@xcelient and high-toned character of the per- ormanceé, but from the fact that improper ‘persons are rigorously excluded. A gentleman in taking his wife and daughters to Ford’s feels secure that they will not be thrown in Company with the painted jezebels who flood ‘the city, and thrust themselves intoevery place of amusement where their pepsence is tolerated. Police officers are placed at the entrance of F ord’s theater nightly, whose special duty it is to turn @way all such women, and to intimate - to them at the same time that a second attempt © gain an entrance there will cause them to be consigned to the guardhouse.

More Greek Fire Thrown in the City. The Rebels Surprised. The mitors to Participate in the Bombardment. New York, Oct. 31—The New York Times has a letter dated Moeris Island, October 27, saying three guns was turned on Charleston. ; Each has thrown one Greek fire shell in the | heart of the city. Other guns will open this afternoon. Our batteries are also at work on Forts Jonnson, Sumter and Moultrie, The enemy reply re- evidently surprised at shelling Four Monitors are in position off Sullivan's Island, and wlil commence firing this af-er- noen. The Ironsides is not participating. No casualty has occurred on our side. Our | firing was to get a perfect range of the rebel | works, and prevent the construction of interior | batteries, mounting guns at Sumter, and not the commencement of any vigorous assault. NasHVILLE, Oct. 29.—Lookout Mountain was taken on the 28th instant by our troops, under Major Gen. Hooker, with the tith army corps and a portion of the 12th, and Palmer’s division of the 4th corps. There was no seri- ous opposition, The river is now open to Chattanooga, and the Army of the Cumber- land is relieved from the danger threatened by the interruption of communication. Gen. Palmer has been promoted to the com- mand of the 14th corps, over Kosecrans, Rey- nolds and Sheridan. Gen. Rousseau is very ill. Gen. Mitchell is relieved from his cay- He ie now in this city. ARMY OF THE POTOMAC. Work on the Orange and Alexandria Rail- r WASuINnt:Ton, Oct. 30.—[Asseciated Press Dispatch.]—There is nothing of unusual inter- est reported from the Army of the Potomac to-day. The railroad is repaired to Catlett's Station and’ pushing on to the junction. The cars are expected to reach there to-morrow. Some of our troops are said to be ata point where Turkey Run crosses the Warrenton Railroad. GEN, MEADE'S ARMY. The Fight near Bealeton—Forces Engaged on Both Sides—Repairs t je Railroad— y of a Battle—Our Army Ready t. CaTLeTt’s STATION, Va., Oct. 29.—{Corres. pondence of the Philadelphia Iquirer.)—“All quiet along the lines,” is the phrase that de- scribes the present state of affairs on our front. The cavalry are still picketing on nearly the same line as my last writing, and have had one or two brushes with the enemy. The latter advanced on Monday with two Brigades of infantry, and attacked our cavalry pickets, under Colonel Devin, to the left of Bealeton, and soon after those of Colonel Chapman’s brigade, further oa the right. Our pickets ‘were driven back by the enemy's skirmishers; but we, in turn, on bringing ap our supports, Grove them to their main body. The troops engaged on the Rebel side were Stuart’s (not Jeb.) and Walker's brigades, of Jonnson’s division, of Ewell’s corps, with some little cavalry. Walker's brigade is the one originally commanded by “Stonewall” Jackson. Ob, Our side, there were the, es briendes of man’s and Devin’s,) and no infantry, as was at first rted. A section of Lieutenant Willis- ton’s Battery, attached to Chapman's Brigade, was brought in, and the rebels had a battery of six guns, The only object of the enemy in making the advance appeared to be merely the protection of their wagons in hauling away the railroad iron from near Bealeton, and they showed no disposition to follow us up any forther than ‘was necessary for that purpose. After the fight was over our picket line remained within something less than a mile of its old position. Although firing was kept up more or less briskly from about 10 a. m. until night, the affair was nothing more than aslight skirmish, bat few casualties occuring on either side. ‘We captured in the skirmish one lieutenant, belonging to the 5th Virginia infantry, and two Privates. The lieutenant corroboral the re- eee ne. heard in regard to their inten- n making & stand at the Rappahannock. He eays they have one of their best engineers superintendizg the construction of fortifica- tione, and a large number of men eonstantl emplcyed on them. If they make a stand this side the sapien, the ridge this side of Brandy Station will probably be thei®-main Position. They can hardly prevent us from crossing the river whenever we wish to do so, but at the point designated they would be able to give us battle with the advantage of position consider- pa in their fayer; and should there be a gen- e engagement within the next month, that ‘will probably be the battle-fleld. From all that now appears such a battle seems quite probable. je rebuilding of the railroad indicates that offensive operation on this line are still contemplated by the War De- | sdb and, beside, it is known thatGeneral lende was much chagrined and disappointed at not being able to bring Lee to a general eu- gagement, either at Bull Run or at the Rappa- nock, during the late movements, whence ‘we may infer that he will be inclined to seek the earliest opportunity to idemnify himself for his disappointment on that oceasion. There are, also, some other indications that resamp- Peg cf active operations is intended at an cath jay. tAL.
