THE RECENT VICTORY AT LOOKOUT MOTN- | TAIN. | A brief official statement from Major Gen. | Thomss relative to the recent fight at Wau- | hatchie has already been published, but the | following dispatch from Quartermaster Gen- | eral Meigs, dated Chattanooga, October 29th, possesses additional interest : «Last night the 11th corps hotly entere@ on this campaign. Gen. Geary, some four miles | up the Lookout Valley, being attacked by Gen. | Longstreet, the 11th corps about one o'clock, marched to bis aid, crossing two steep wooded | hills about 150 feet in height. They received a | volley {rom a rebel force which had occupied and entrenched their summit after dark. ‘our regiments assaulted the east hill, and, | Without firing a shot, steadily advanced by the | ight of the moon, and drove the rebels out of | their rifle- pits, and down the other slope of the | hill. Thirty-one dead soldiers attest the diffi- | culty of the assault, and the steadiness and | valor cf the trocps, which in a night attack | accomplished one of the most brilliant feats of | the campaign. | «Only atter walking over the ground to-d: I fully appreciate the exploit. When the: hills were taken, they marched to the assistance | of Gen. Geary, who had held his position, and | Gen. Longstreet was driven back with slaugh- | ter, as prisoners taken trom two of his divi- | sions attest that his whole disposable force was | engaged. The whole affair is most creditable to the corps from the Army of the Potomac.” | a | NAVAL ORDERS. | Commander Napoleon Collins, ordered to | command the Wachusett. | Commander A. G.

LATEST FROM THE MARYLAND ELECTION. THE EMANCIPATIONISTS SWEEP TAE STATE, —— Batons, Nov. 5.—Returns come inslow- ly. There is some doubt as to the result in the Ist district, but it is generally conceded that Crisfield is re-elected over Cresswell, the Un- conditional Union candidste; the former having received the support of the anti-emancipa- tionists and many secessionists, who are said to have taken the oath of allegiance in erder to vote for him. Messrs. Webster, Davis, and Frank Thomas. are of course elected in the Seco nd, Third and Fourth districts, there being no opposition- Holland, the Union Emancipation candidate, runs well and may possibly have defeated Cal- vert. In the vote for Goldsborough the State has emphatically decided in favor of Emancipa- tion. [Note.—The latest possible information re- crived from the First District, is that embraced in our article on the Maryland election, in another column, and jit indicates that Cress- well, the Unconditional Union candidate, is elected.—Eb.

Recollects that on the day of arrest Maude was at the table eating dinner. The officer who arrested her was there. Witness recommended Maude to give the key to some one, but did not order the house to be closed, nor did she have the key, nor has she had any authority over the honse since. Emma Williams (colored) recalled.—Testified that she saw Mrs. Johnson around the house 275 D street. Witness has heard Mrs. Johnson say that she was going to make some changes in the house. itness was about to testify as to Mrs. Johnson’s exercise of authority in the house, when Mr. Carrington objected, and as the object was to contradict Mrs. J., the latter was recalled in order to be present. Mrs. Johnson, recalled and testified that she made a remark to Maude Roberts, that a stove in the house was not agreed on, but she never had snything todo with the purchase of the stove and did not give an order for its removal. This was subsfantially corroborated by the testimony ofthe colored witness when she was recalled. ; At this stage Mr. Ford asked an adjournment unul to-morrow morning, in order that wit- nesses might be obtained to show that Mr. Donaldson and Mrs. Johnson were really the controllers of this establishment. Mr. Carrington did not think that evidence was mentioned, as the question was not who ‘was the proproprietor of the house, but simply who kept the house of prostitution- The Court here adjourned the court, af: evjcining the parties to have no delay to-mor- vew mornihg. we The defendants were recommitted to jail she and Stella St. Clair made the complaint againet these parties. Witness said Stella St. Ciair was in Baltimore, but would like to be here if she had known the trial was to come off. ‘Lhe trial, it was understood, was postponed till next month.

Never had a difficulty with Mande until these charges were made by Burtenett. Witness related turther convergation relative to the stove, and said that the stove selected by Burtenett was the one chosen. The house, 257 D street, wit- ness belleved, was kept jointly by Maude and Burtenett. Witness made arrangements for bed and board with Maude, although Bur- fenett was there. Witness remembers that Burtenett was a party to the contract for board. Witness remembers that on one occa- sion Maude teok Burtenett to task because he had not provided dinner. Witness did know Hattie Seymour, but declined answering whe- ther she had ever lived at Hattie’s.
